Working in Windows 8 excel. I am copying data from a website and entering that data onto a spread sheet. There are certain websites where the data does not transfer on the first try. It sometimes takes up to trying 3 times before the data will download onto the spread sheet. Why is that? And is there anything I can do to get it to transfer on the first try?
View 1 RepliesI have managed to manipulate a website by entering some dates into the input boxes then go to another page with the information I need. I am wondering if anyone knows a macro I can use to copy the data directly to a new worksheet?

My Excel Spreadsheet has columns named "Hospital Name | Overview | Address | Phone | Fax | Contact Person 1 | Contact Person 1 Title | Contact Person 2 | Contact Person 2 Title | Contact Person 3 | Contact Person 3 Title"
There is the list of hospitals starting from "Abbott Northwestern Hospital". I have two things in my mind to extract the information. If you click on the first hospital name "Abbott Northwestern Hospital". Below is an example text which I would like to transfer it automatically in columns given above;
This text should go in column named "Overview":
Abbott Northwestern Hospital bring twins into the Twin Cities -- along with triplets, quadruplets............
This text should go in column named "Address": 800 E. 28th St.Minneapolis, MN 55407
This text should go in column named "Phone": 612-863-4000
This text should go in column named "Fax": 612-863-5667
This text should go in column named "Contact Person 1": Jeffrey D. (Jeff) Peterson
This text should go in column named "Contact Person 1 Title": President
This text should go in column named "Contact Person 2": Daryl Schroeder
This text should go in column named "Contact Person 2 Title": VP Operations
This text should go in column named "Contact Person 3": Sandy Schmitt
This text should go in column named "Contact Person 3 Title": VP Strategic Development, Allina Hospitals and Clinics

Okay, I have data for 400 employees in one spreadsheet. I am trying to move 4 fields of data to a second spreadsheet. But I have 11 rows for each employee in the 2nd spreadsheet.
How do I copy my formula so that it is the same for the first 11 rows and then moves down a row for the 12 row?
ie)
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A2

From a destination spreadsheet, I need to be able to programmatically prompt the user for the name of a source spreadsheet (e.g., using GetOpenFilename), open the selected file, copy predefined data (i.e., identified with a named range), return to the destination spreadsheet and paste the data in a predefined location.
Does anyone have any code samples to accomplish this task? If so, can it be run with ScreenUpdating set to false so that the user does not see all of the moving around the two spreadsheets.
We created a database for our employees who have security items and other things we need to keep track. We created a spreadsheet where data was entered on Sheet2 (Entry Form) and then by clicking various buttons would be thrown over to Sheet1 (MasterList) and put in alphabetical order. Then last week he said lets change it to a User form where i can put all the data, be able to tab through my text boxes and make the whole process of entering information faster and more efficient.. but now hes gone and I'm left with his macros and all this stuff i don't really understand! I have been doing pretty well on my own but im stuck "Search Employee" Here is what i have...
VB:
Private Sub SearchEmployeeButton_Click()
LastName.Value = Range("A500").Value
FirstName.Value = Range("B500").Value

use code tags around code. Posting code without them makes your code hard to read and difficult to be copied for testing. Highlight your code and click the # at the top of your post window.
I have a spreadsheet with two tabs (Customer Survey Data) and (Customer Rollup). The data starts on line 5 (headers in rows 1 thru 4) and is found in columns B thru J. In column B I have dates with no blanks. In column C I have customer names - no blanks. In column J is are the customer comments - not all customers made a comment so there are blanks.
I created a macro that autofilters the data to show only those entries within a specific date range (dictated by dates found in L1 and L2 - begin and end dates respectively) by column B (no problem with this). The macro also auto removes all rows where there are no comments (column J = no blanks). This leaves me with only those surveys recieved within a specied date range that have comments.
Here is my problem: the Customer Rollup sheet is the finalized report. I need to copy only the customer names and their comments into the finalized report. The following is the macro I put in which only half works and I have no idea why. It copies the names fine...but then only copies the first comment.
Oh yea...I don't want to copy the WHOLE column...only from the first visible row down to the last. Btw...I put a lot of notes for myself...I capitalized the notes where I think the problem is...Any suggestions on how to fix it or why it just doesnt seem to work like it should?
I must say I have learned quite a lot from this forum. So, a vey big Thank You to the folks who are managing this forum and those who are contributing possible solutions. I have a question about copying data from a spreadsheet to a List Box in a User Form (Pls see attached). First, I select the Account from the drop-down cell in the Main sheet. Then I click on the CommandButton and a UserForm will pop out with a List Box that draws relevant data from the Remarks sheet according to the Account that I have selected. The data in the List Box must be in this format : "Date1 : Remark1"; next line "Date2 : Remark2; line 3 "Date3 : Remark3"........until the last available entry.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there any quick way of passing an array to a group of cells ?
It is easy enough to place an array of numbers in a spreadsheet as follows:-
I have a home finance spreadsheet that I've been using for a few years and in the last couple of days it's ground to a halt. Whenever I enter a value in a cell and hit [ENTER] there is a long delay with the spinning wait icon (Windows 7) and the Excel window reports "Not responding". Eventually (3-4 minutes) the update occurs and everything is fine.
The workbook has 9 sheets on it but only one summary sheet references the others. The sheet I'm updating has about 2200 rows, 50 columns and the formulas are simple A+B-C types. Performance DOES NOT improve if I change recalculation to manual. The only VBA is some macros to perform tasks and they don't execute dynamically. Adding comments and changing formats responds immediately, it is only updating values that exhibits the problem.
I've tried replacing all formulas with their values (paste special/values) across the sheet but again this didn't work.
How do I get one sheet to update from the other when I open both sheets. Somethign like an auto update. If I had two tabs on the same spreadsheet I would just use = but I can't use that with two different sheets.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am trying to copy a set of data (lets say workbook 1) into a new workbook(workbook 2). Both files are saved in the same directory.
Workbook 1 will be continually updated with new row additions and some changes in text in the rows. I want to copy these new changes (from workbook 1) without having to copy and paste the new additions into workbook 2, as it is wasting a lot of my time.
Is there a trick in excel to automatically do this?
I'm trying to write a macro to use as an auto-update feature for a spreadsheet.
I currently use Data validation on an input cell to allow the user to select from a list of product types.
I'd like the update to affect this list, so new product types are always available to the user.
However, the list of product types is in another spreadsheet and contains numerous repetitions.
I've managed to get the following code together based on what I've used before and what I've found searching so far, but it seems to have a bug in it as it wont always work. I also need the original copying of the list to be done to either the new spreadsheet of a different page in the original spreadsheet, but every time I try this it causes an object error.

Im using the below formula to paste information into a new spreadsheet based on the if then statement. However, as i paste the formula down the sheet, it doesnt reference all the cells. The formula stays on the cells it referenced initially. How can I make the formula reference all the cells as i drag it down?
=IF('[All Cases ATL.xlsx]New_All_Case'!$C$2="DA1",IF('[All Cases ATL.xlsx]New_All_Case'!$T$2="A",'[All Cases ATL.xlsx]New_All_Case'!$E$2,""),"")

How do you crack a protected spreadsheet other than copying the tab and pasting? Someone protected a lease abstract by mistake and now we cannot make changes.
View 1 Replies View RelatedRight now I have multiple sheets each with a single (different) image floating on top of the cells as all images do in excel.
What I would like to achieve is when a certain sheet is activated, the code finds the image on that sheet and then copies it to the clipboard. What would be a way to go about this?
I have done some research trying to understand how images are referenced in excel.
I am trying to extract data from a website:
[URL] .....
I looked at the source code of the website and realized that if you notice (above) that the variables listed in the link (i.e year, month, day) are exactly what i need to change in order to get the data for a specific date. how can I accomplish this using VBA. so say I have in on an excel sheet year in column A, month in column B, and days in column C (time interval is constant so we don't have to worry about stime and etime). and i run the macro and it loops through each row taking year,month,day for all rows and saving the data as .csv or xls files?
retrieving data from financial website databases like yahoofinance.com and bloomberg.com. I'm trying to make an automatic stock analysis model to read from the website database and retrieve the data into excel sheets.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have list of url in a column. I want to fetch data from all the links and store it in a excel sheet.
I have written code, the code fetches only 1 links data at a time. I want to loop that vba macro and fetch all the data at a time.
I have written a macro to pull in data from a website each day. However the macro falls over because the end of the url changes slightly each day as the website provider updates the information. Unfortunately there does not appear to be a logical pattern to the number change in the url and so I don’t think I can pre-empt what the change will be. The path through the website remains the same, but the url changes as a new csv document replaces the old one. Is there any way of writing the macro so that it opens/picks up the current url rather than a fixed url?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI went through the thread http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showthread.php?t=302438. I have similar problem of pulling the data from http://www.nseindia.com/ site. Could you please help me?
The navigation to the page required is as below.
http://www.nseindia.com/ > Equity > Historical Data > Security-wise data >
eg. NSE Symbol: RPL, Series: ALL, From date: 01-01-2008, To date: 01-05-2008.
After clicking on the 'Get Results' button it navigates to the page with tables. At the end it says "Download file in csv format". upon clicking this a csv file opens. (http://www.nseindia.com/content/equi...-2008RPLXN.csv)
I need this page to be opened in Excel sheet. How should I go ahead?
(Basically I need historical stock data csv files of various stocks)
Even though a simple web query opens the page, it do not work if the parameters (stock name, date) are changed.
I found that the last resulting page in csv is using a "REFERRAL URL". Could this be a problem? How to get around?
I know little bit of VBA and can further work to pass variables.
