I have attached a workbook that creates new folders based on text in a cell.
As you can see when the button is pressed it runs the macro which when it is done calls the next & so on.
What I would like to know is there a way of acheiving the same results with a single macro.
Eg column A contains 4 cells with text. The macro when run will check for cell content then create folder based on that text macro will stop when next cell is empty.
I am attempting to create a macro that will create a new folder on the network drive Arie:quotes that will create the new folder and save the the file in the new folder. I need the name of the file and folder to be set to the master (worksheet) cell "B3". and then if possible have it be conditional that if cell "B40" on the same master (worksheet) has a value to have the value added at the end of the filename via hyphen. This workbook has numerous worksheets in it approx 15 worksheets. I am not sure if this is relevant.
As an brief example.
Cell "B3" on the master(worksheet) contains a job name I-40 bridge So initially I would like the Folder name and file name to be I-40 Bridge
However once the Cell "B40" has been filled in with the value 54213 then I would like the file to renamed to I-40 Bridge-54213 and saved within the same folder.
I am currently working with Excel 2007 Pro edition on windows 8. I
I have found several other macro's that work with an auto save but i am unsure of how to change the directory to the network drive and show the correct file paths. This is the example of the macro I am currently working with.
Public Sub SaveAsA1() ThisFile = Range("B3").ValueMkDir "C:NewFolder"ChDir "C:NewFolder"ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=ThisFileEnd Sub
and for each Project in Projects, create a new folder with the actual month (e.g. "03" or "12")
Im running the Makro from a file where I'd like to put the month in a cell -> so the code refers to cell("A1") wich has value 01 and creates a folder "01" in every projectfolder in C:Projects
way to create a group of folders in a specific location using a list of cells from an XLS file as the folder names.
For example, it would take whatever text is in Cell A1 and create a new folder in a specified location. It would take the text in Cell A2 and create a new folder in the same specified location. Etc.
I want it to return the subfolders from a named folder, but only the folder name, right now it returns the whole path. So my code has to then text to column that path, then delete the columns I don't need. Is there a way to shorten this? Here is my code so far:
'Lists Folders' Worksheets(1).Range("A3:A300").Value = ClearContents Worksheets(1).Activate Dim row As Integer Dim SearchFolders As Variant row = 3 LookInTheFolder = "I:projects2Koch58MY8900PROCESS2013 Work (Phase 3)DIH_SulfolaneEquipment"
I would like to create a series of folders in explorer using a range of cells A1:A162 for the names of the folders. Wondering if there is a way that I can automate this using VBA versus doing it manually .
Am trying to copy 50 worksheets from One workbook, into separate existing files (overwriting previous file) in existing folders; once copied, destination files can not be linked to source file.
I'm able to copy the tabs into new workbooks, in the correct folders, but when trying to perform PasteSpecial in new books, original source file is also pasted over.
The parts of the file name and folder location are cell values located on each sheet.
...
For Each sheet In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets sheet.Copy Set workbook = ActiveWorkbook With workbook.Sheets(1) .UsedRange.Copy .UsedRange.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues .Cells(1).Select Application.CutCopyMode = False End With
I have a silly little sheet that i am trying to create to help me create a lot of folders on my pc. The sheet will basically make a consecutive group of folders that list out a 7 day period and a week number.
The problem i am having is trying to paste the special values of the dates in a group of cells, and then using those values to create my multiple sets of folders. I do not know how to get around it using the 5-digit date codes when it creates the folders.
I need to create a macro that will allow the user to create a directory based on a template directory, with all directory paths/ names stored in workbook cells:
1) Create a new directory (name/path specified in workbook) 2) Go to a template directory & copy the entire directory, subdirectories & all files 3) Paste them into the new directory 4) Save a copy of the workbook into the specified location from (3)
Example: X:Templates -copy all to- X:Projects(Value specified in workbook cell)
I have created an appointment schedule spreadsheet. Once I get the spreadsheet running smoothly, I would like to create a worksheet for every day of the year that we are open.
I have decided to have one main folder with 26 subfolders in it. In each of those 26 subfolders, there will be one workbook with 12 worksheets in it. That will be two weeks worth of appointments as we are open Mon-Sat. Of course I want to name the worksheet tabs at the bottom of the workbook according to the appropriate calendar date. Then there is also a cell at the top of each page that also has the date, the same as the date on the tab. Just wondering if there is a simple way to create a macro to rename all these worksheet tabs, or if I have to physically open up each workbook, and rename all the worksheet tabs according to the calendar date. Then once the worksheet tab is named, can you make it automatically put the same date into Cell A1?
I have a list of file names sans extension in column A. I want to search a folder I specify and if file is found create a hyperlink to said file either in a new cell or in column A.
The code I have does the search fine, but its hyperlinking is offset and I can’t get it to match the link to the file name.
I am looking for a solution to dynamically create named ranges according to the contents of cells in a particular column. The following code works for 1 word names, but in many cases the title cell contains numerous words separated by spaces. Is there a way I can adapt this code so that it will name the ranges with the spaces removed? For example, where cell C2 contains the narrative 'Sales Ledger Control', I would want the range name 'SalesLedgerControl'.
Range("R2:Z2").Name = Range("C2")
The named ranges are referred to in numerous other worksheets, where selecting a particular narrative from a listbox creates a dependant drop-down in the adjacent cell (eg if Sales Ledger Control is selected, the dependant list contains names of customers). FYI, the data validation in the other worksheets ignores the spaces in the range names, ie: =INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(G2," ",""))
It would not take me long to name the ranges manually, but a macro is preferable because the narratives in the title cells will often change and the range names will obvioulsy also therefore change.
My problem is to create a macro that will list all folders, subfolders and files in an order in excel. So that I know which folders and files belong to which main folder, more like a hierarchy.
For example, Sourcefolder Subfolder 1 File1
I have code that list all files in folders and subfolders, but it does not put them in a hierarchy fashion.
Macro that could look at a row and take the values of two cells, combine them and then create a range name for a third cell in the row.
For example; for row 5420, in column C there is the word Florida, in column D there is the number 6235, and in column F there is a sentence or two. Is there a way to automatically create a named range for the cell of column F that would be named FLORIDA6235? And if so, can the macro do this for every row even if the word and/or the number changes.
I have roughly 28,000 rows and nine columns that I am working with. That's why I was wondering if there was a way to automate this. There are 10 states and I don't know how many different numbers attached to the states, however there are many state and number combinations that repeat, so there would be several rows with Florida in column C, 6235 in column D but a different description in column F.
I need to back up files, which may be excel or MSword, by copying them from different directories, say C: to the backup directory, say X:. any vba to backup the files? I expect the vba can copy all file listed in column A.
E.g. C: est1File1.xls or C: est2File2.doc, and then pasted to the directory in column B. e.g. X:BackupFolder1 or X:BackupFolder2.
macro and I think this has me on my way; however, I do not understand the code and I am having difficulty modifying it. It returns the path in cell $A1 of my workbook, but I get reference errors in $B1:$L1.
I would like for the code to start entering the values in row 2 of my current worksheet. Row 1 I want to make a header row. The first column I like having the file path. Can the path be changed to a hyperlink? I would then like for it to return the values in $AP1:$BC1 to $B1:$O1 of my current workbook.
I have managed to get this far - I have put together a macro (from different threads on this site) that opens closed workbooks, copies data in one of the sheets (same sheet in each of 28 books), and pastes the data it into a master book sheet, each paste starting below the last. So that bit is working. The first bit of help I need is a line of code that will make the macro loop through a number of sub folders in a main folder. My code at the moment works as long as I specify a path that ends with the name of one subfolder, and it only loops through this subfolder. I would like the path to end at the folder that holds all the subfolders ('Workbooks' in the path below), and then add some code that tells it to apply the macro to all subfolders in this folder, so it loops through them all.
The second issue is that after the macro goes to the closed book(s), copies the data in there and pastes it into the master sheet (into columns E:FG), I then need it to go back to the workbook it just copied from, go the same sheet, to three specific cells on that sheet (FH1:FH3), copy the content, go back to the master sheet, and now repeatedly paste the content (values only and transposed) of these three cells into three cells (in columns B:D, with row number being dependent on what rows the first lot of data was copied into) next to every row it just previously pasted in for me. When it loops to the next workbook, it needs to do the same, and the three cells will have different content than the ones in the previous workbook paste.
I dont know how to define the range it needs to paste into the second time. I tried using the definition I used for the first paste (MCDrow), to tell it that it is the same rows, just different columns, but this is not working.
Here is what I have so far, which does the first part of what I need, except for needing a way to have it loop through all subfolder in the 'Workbooks' folder (at the moment it lists Barwon South West as a subfolder in that path, but I actually have multiple subfolders, not all called Barwon South (all different names) that it needs to loop through and do both the first and the second paste for. I have taken out the code I was trying to use to do the second paste, as this was not working and the code is pretty messy as it is (I sort of bumble along, being so new, and I know the code is not very clean or efficient!).
Can someone help me put in the few lines I need to loop through all my subfolders (if you give me an example I can probably extrapolate), but to get you started, three of the subfolders are Barwon South West, Eastern Region and Gippsland. And can someone help me put in the code that will do the second paste for each workbook?
Sub Click2()
Application. ScreenUpdating = True Dim MCDrow As Long 'Dim SubFolders As String MCDrow = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Client Data").Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
Fpath = "Q:Clinical ServicesCS Statewide DatabaseWorkbooksBarwon South West" ' change to your directory 'SubFolders = True Fname = Dir(Fpath & "*.xls") Do While Fname <> ""
I've got a workbook set up. One tab has a bunch of named ranges, let's say Tables 1-6. The second tab has vlookups for selected values from a sharepoint data pull (in order to parse through the sharepoint stuff, most of it is nonsense).
What I am trying to do is write a formula for cell E2 that: -Step 1: Looks into whichever range the user specifies, 1-6 (probably using the indirect function). -Step 2: Searches the specified range for text found in cell F2 (a string of text with values from one or more of the ranges 1-6) -Step 3: Returns the text.
I have some dynamic named ranges in sheet1, and in sheet2 I have data validation dropdown list which has the names of all the DNR's in it.
What I want it to do (in sheet3, no less) is for the user to be able to pick a named range from the dropdown list, and have a particular column in sheet3 then display that entire named range.
I have made a 'data' worksheet which is the source for the data validation in sheet2. Each item in the list identically matches the name of each of the named ranges. I was hoping to be able to use some form of =INDIRECT but alas, no such luck.
So it's almost like a copy and paste function I'm after, where:
If you pick "Schedule_From" out of the DD-list, then DNR 'Schedule_From' is what is pasted in Column B in Sheet3.
I wrote some code that toggles bewtweeen the word "Yes" and the function clearcontents.
What it does not do, is if you click on cell A1 and change it's contents and you click on the same cell again it does nothing. You need to click on another cell say A2 before you can go and change A1 again.
My code is as follows:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("Documents")) Is Nothing Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False If IsEmpty(Target) Then Target.Value = "Yes" Else Target.ClearContents End If Application.EnableEvents = True On Error Goto 0 End If
I have read post re this question but have not been able to answer my problem. I get the error message 'Application defined or object defined error' when running the code below. I should indicate the range counter currently indicated about 6,200 rows that this code will work on and the individual range names in the list of 6,200 rows are spread over at least 20 worksheets.
The code appears to be running but after some time it stops on the line of code 'Range(Cells(i, 1).Value) = Cells(i, 2)'.
Sub PopulateWithImportData() Dim counter As Integer counter = Sheets("Imported Data").Range("Counter")
I did a search for " import text" and found some promising leads, but not exactly what I was looking for. I have tried running macros and looking at the code but don't know how to pass the file names from the the D47:D147 range to VBA(see below). I saw elsewhere that Excel can be told to create a temporary batch file, and that the batch file with the command "copy text1.txt+text2.txt+text3.txt all.txt" for example could be used to merge the 3 text files into a file called all.txt. I don't however know how specify the path where copy starts, to tell the batch file to look in subdirectories or to pass the file into Excel. I've posted this question yesterday to Yahoo Answers http://tinyurl.com/omers and http://tinyurl.com/rfww9 without much luck.
Below is the macro I would like:I have text files whose names are found in the range D47:D147 although without the appended ".txt" extension. The sheets can only contain one name sometimes, but on average 8 to 10, so in the average case only cells D47:D56 would have entries.The text files are found in the say H:Textfiles directory or subdirectories.I would like Excel to find these files, concatenate them with a row between each file, and paste the results into cell K251.Finally, the text import wizard should be used with a space as a delimiter and the last 3 columns (it's sometimes only 2) of the concatenated file, not imported.
I'm trying to make my worksheet generate a bunch of named ranges whenever it is activated. However, I'm getting a "Not a valid name" error on the line in red. The value of r is a string, so I really don't see what the issue is. Another time, I got a object defined error, but I think I've declared everyhing too. That line is very similar to the line above, and tends to work once (the first time around the loop). After that, I get the errors I mentioned.
I have a list of headings and items and I have a set of formulas that work out depending on the heading what items are listed.
Say theres 10 items and the heading starts at C4 and that heading has 10 items, so it puts "C5" as text in G1 and "C15" as text in G2 so i now know my cell range of items
How can i use the text in those cells to put in a formula to call that as a range?
If I use the indirect formula it shows me the value of the cell, but im after using it to reference the cell
why I'm getting an error with this code. I have a data set that becomes larger each time I run the report, so by selecting all the cells and naming the range, I don't have to hard-code the cells involved. Then, I want to be able to create a table from that named range. The error comes on the last line of code.
My vb code currently creates a new sheet via "Sheets.add". This new sheet has the default name of "sheet1" which I rename as "tempSheet". I then populate tempSheet with data, save as a CVS file and then I remove tempSheet.
If I stay in my workbook and try to execute the code again, the default name of the sheet it now creates is "sheet2" and not "sheet1" - this is a problem becuase my code is trying to rename "sheet1" "tempSheet" and of course it cant.
