I need to copy data from File 1 to File 2. I need the macro to copy B5:B14 in file 1 and paste the data in file 2 under Column C. However the row it starts it depends on todays date (which is located in Column A). It would need to find tomorrow date in column A, move over to Column C and paste the data.
How in the heck do you get VBA to look and find the correct date, and paste the data 2 columns over?
This is a sample of the data with which I am working. I know that a macro can do what I need, but I am only versed in Excel formulas and not that much programming. I need to be able to first sort the data by Column C ("Element Type"), then by Columns E, F, G ("Year", "Month", "Day"). Then, I need to be able to copy all rows that have the same "Element Type" and "Year" to a new file, using the same header from the original spreadsheet on each new spreadsheet - doing this multiple times until the end of the file is reached.
Ideally, the new files would have a strict naming convention: XXXXXX-ZZZZ (YYYY).xls, where the X's are the value of the "COOP Station ID" in Column A, the Z's are the "Element Type" from Column C, and the Y's are the "Year" from Column E. If this theoretical macro were run with the Sample Data file I provided, it should result in the creation of five new workbooks. Is there a way to write a macro to do this, or at least something similar
I have csv files auto generated (with date stamp in name) and saved in a specific folder everyday. I need to find a macro that will copy the row(s) every day and add to the next empty row in the master excel file. Some days the csv file may have a single row of data and on some other days it may have multiple rows of data to copy and paste.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there an easy way to automatically copy data from 1 Excel spreadsheet to another when the data is slightly out of order? Currently an admin copies and pastes from file 1 to file 2 manually. There are approximately 800 names to copy. It would be ideal to type a command or press a key and have file 2 updated automatically. Is there a feasible way to accomplish this without spending a lot of money or time?
file 1 file 2
john 100 john 100
june 200 lance 50
marie 150 june 75
stan 100 marie 125
phone 50 stan 200
hold 25
In the example above, if lance doesn't appear in file 1 his amount doesn't get copied and his 50 remains the same. The amounts do not get added, just pasted over from file 1 to file 2 with the days sales results. Only the names on file 2 get pasted over. Phone and hold amounts in file 1 are ignored.
I am trying to automate a process that I do manually today. I have a specific folder that contains 4 .csv files. We will call them:
sheet1.csv
sheet2.csv
sheet3.csv
sheet4.csv
They are the only format that ARS Remedy can export in. I wish to copy the contents of these four .csv files to unique tabs in an Excel workbook. The name of each tab should match the name of the .csv file that provided the data. For exmple sheet1 would contain all the data from sheet1.csv and so on... I'm just learning the ropes to VBA and I am running out of time to play around with this.
My simple copy and paste macro copies data but while pasting it pastes data starting in cell A1 rather than A5. Code is as below. I thought of copying cell by cell but the problem is that this is only a very small part of code. Below code copies column C in source file and pastes into column A of destination file.
I would be doing about 50 of these columns transfers between two files and thought that copying cell by cell would take ages to run.
1) Can someone please help me resolving the above problem i.e pasting data in cell A5 rather than A1.
2) Secondly how can i add an OR to the autofilter criteria? for example below code filters based on criteria "CS"? what do i need to do to filter based on "CS" or "AS".

View 14 Replies View RelatedI created a macro on an excel file on my local PC that opens another excel file on my local PC and copies some data from file 2 and pastes that data in file 1. In file 1 have a Path and File Name that the Macro uses to get Open File 2 from. This works Great on my local PC!! However, I need to move this to a SharePoint. When I did I tried to change the Path and File name to the ones from the URL generated by SharePoint Send Link. No Luck, then tried to change the 20% replace for spaces. Still no luck. Do I need to use some other method of opening a file that is on SharePoint vs Local PC?
Currently have I have:
Sheets("Labels").Select
Path = Range("b2").Value
BenFile = Range("b3").Value
InterOpFile = Range("b4").Value
NMOCFile = Range("b5").Value
SECFile = Range("b6").Value

How do I create code that will copy and paste 30 rows of data
Copy from filename "Record1", worksheet name "CA3M", in column A and B, and Paste data in filename "Record2", worksheet name "CA3M"
- Column A 30 rows of data paste into A20:A49 of the new file and worksheet
- Column B 30 rows of data paste into E20:E49 of the new file and worksheet, prior to pasting these results remove all dashes "-" eg.0-0-1 = 001
The location of the 30 rows of data to be copied changes, so the code should always look for the following information in the row before and after the 30 rows to copy in column A and B:
- Find the 30 rows of data in Column A and B where the first row immediately follows the row with the cell result "Account Date" and the last row is immediately before the row with the cell result "Previous Page Page".
Also, I will probably have to update the code to repeat this function for several other worksheets within these 2 files after my database is completely built.
I am trying to set up a file name and path in a cell, and then use this from a number of other cells but with a cell location added to it. So for example:
cell A1 contains a file name "c:mydirectoryexcelfile.xls"
cell A2 needs to contain the contents of the cell at location K12 (for example) from the file referred to in A1
cell A3 needs to contain the contents of the cell at location K13 (for example) from the file referred to in A1
This is to save having to put the filename and cell reference in all of the of cells. I would then do the same thing with another file in column B of this file and the same with column C etc.
I open 2 files : A & B. Once I finish copying data from B into A. I close B and open C and so on. That means I always work with file A (active)
File B, C or D and so on has 3 worksheets with identical names. The filename of B, C and so on also has some common word
I'd like to copy data into sheet1 of file A, always same range : B2:B100 , afterwards I would copy-paste each result from sheet1 to another sheet of file A and delete the data in sheet1. So sheet1 of file A is always active and show the result each time the macro was run as follows.
Cell b2 of file A = cell c1 of sheet 1 of file B
Cell b3 of file A = cell d1 sheet 1 of file B + cell e1 of sheet 2 of file B

I'm trying to create a sub that will save my worksheet to a tab delimited text file anytime there is a change in the worsheet data (all cells are linked to cells in other workbooks). I've figured out the command to save the file
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"C:Documents and SettingsChrisMy DocumentsBook1.txt", FileFormat:=xlText _
, CreateBackup:=False
but I'm not sure how to get a sub routine to start running when the file opens and to have it run continuously while open. I've found the command:
Application.Volatile
that will flag when any cells in my range are recomputed and run a function, but functions don't allow me to save the file.
I would need only the first row data to be copied into a master file in column A (row A from each file to column A, column B.... etc - basically transpose value into master file)

View 4 Replies View RelatedBelow is the current code I have for File Copy before the workbook closes. This file will be distributed all over and obviously will not have the same old path and new path locations as I have in my code also will not have the same file name. Is there anyway to still perform the file copy without knowing the old path and file name and possibly have message box pop up to ask the copy to location and use that in the new path string?

Dim oldPath As String, newPath As String
oldPath = "I:EXLDATAMC Daily" '<---Where the file is currently located

I would like to use VBA to search a folder and copy data from tabs within the excel files there. The data will be pasted to a tab of same name in the the main file. All the files are in the same format.
So far I have only managed to list the files in the folder using code I found on your site!
I already have code that I believe is supposed to do what I'm trying to accomplish. However, it doesn't fully work. The Macro is below:
VB:
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:Documents and Settingsplp138DesktopExample 1.xls"
On Error Resume Next
With Workbooks("Example 2.xls")[code]....
Basically, what I'm trying to accomplish is to have a certain range from one file copied, and pasted in the next available (empty) row of another file. While debugging I see that everything is working except for the actual pasting.
I just found a code to copy file path and file contents. However it is copying folder path and folder contents.here is my requirement.I will specify a path, macro has to copy that file name in a particular cell, then it has to copy all its contents.
ex:
file name 1 has 3 sub files in it, file name 2 has 2 sub files in it--
column AColumn B
file name1file contents
file name1file contents
file name1file contents
file name2file contents
file name2file contents
And also i have extend this macro to write a index function. i will tell u about this. but first i need above thing I researched but I didn't find.
I need file name in a column then i need file contents in b column.
if a file has 10 file contents in a file then that file name should come 10 times in a column, and in b column all its contents.
Is it possible w/ some vba code to copy the names of files, either from a search or a specific directory to an Excel Worksheet?

I have a template file for ordering trafolyte and steel plates. I have added macros to this template file. The existing macros do the following (shortly described):
Macro 1: clears order
Macro 2: update order date + send a read only file to the supplier of plates + save a read only copy of the file into one of three folders acc to info in one of the cells.
It's the Macro 2 I want to edit.
I want to add a "function" which copy a selection of data.column A to N from row 12 to 548 but only the rows where there is a value in column A.
Row 1 to 11 includes standard order info and Macro buttons.
Row 11 includes the heading for order data.
For everytime someone click on the Macro 2 button in the template file, I want the selection to be paste into the first "available" row in a "Total list" file.
The "Total list" file may have to be open (or a function to open, paste selection and then close the "Total list" file may be added)
File and Folder info:
To simplify suggestions, the following file and path info can be used (I can change to the correct later):
Template file name: template_order.xlsm
Template file location: \servershared emplate
Total list file name: total_list.xlsx
Total list file location: \servershared otal
Selection info:
The template file exists of a "general order info area" A1:N10
The column heading for order data is located at A11:N11
The selection to be copied is A12:N550 - But only rows where column A includes data (not empty).
(If the spesific order consists of 14 plates than there will be item no 1-14 in column A and I then I want to copy A12:N25 (row 25 will be item 14).
When I try to use record macro it looks like it only records what's happening in the template file - It doesn't record the pasting in the total list.
