Creating Find Tool For Directory
Apr 27, 2008
I am preparing Vendors' Directory for our company. This Directory has different products listed in seperate sheets. The names, phone numbers and address of various vendors' are listed in each sheet.
My problem is that I want to create a new sheet with a find tool that will search particular name of the product or the vendor from all the sheets (say product A, product B) and list out complete information in single page.
I have attached a sample excel sheet which is supposed to search the name "Daniel" from sheets - Product A and Product B and list it out in the first sheet. The sample does not work.

Is there a way to generically reference a directory when creating a hyperlink? By this I mean, I have an XLS that documents the flow of a process. As an outcome of this process, text files are generated.
This process may be run multiple times. I would like to be able to create multiple directories: Run1, Run2, Run3, ...
I would like to put a copy of the XLS in each directory. I would like to put the output files from each run into their respective directory.
I would like to put hyperlinks in the XLS that point to the flat files. However, when I add a hyperlink it contains the full directory path. Something like C:MyDocumentsRun1output1.txt.
So, if I copy the XLS into directory Run2, the hyperlink is still going to point to a data file in directory Run1.
How can I generically default to look in the 'current' directory for a file? Or is there a different/better way around this? ............

I would like to create a macro which will copy the names of the files and folders of a chosen directory into a spreadsheet, effectively creating an index. I don't know how to go about this or even if it is possible. I'm trying to avoid having to do it manually as the directory in question spans 1500 folders...

Imagine this:
* Main Category #1
Sub Title #1: "Value"
Sub Title #2: "Value"
Sub Title #3: "Value"
Sub Title #4: "Value"
* Main Category #2
Sub Title #1: "Value"
Sub Title #2: "Value"
Sub Title #3: "Value"
Sub Title #4: "Value"
Sub Title #5: "Value"
Sub Title #6: "Value"
Sub Title #7: "Value"
Sub Title #8: "Value"
Sub Title #9: "Value".................
Main categories and subtitles are in the same column. "Value"s are in the column to the right.
I want to make a list in the columns to the right. This list will only show something if the "value" is not zero. It will show in the first column right from the original list, the main category to which the subtitle belongs to and the subtitle. Something like this (imagine subtitle #2 from cat #1 and #2 and #3 from cat #2 are not zero):

I have a workbook that is produced by some other application that names the file "FAMMToday_#.xls"
Where # increases from 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5 and so forth until all the analyst are done with adjustments. so the directory can look like but doesnt always go to five and nor is it limited to five.
"FAMMToday_1.xls"
"FAMMToday_2.xls"
"FAMMToday_3.xls"
"FAMMToday_4.xls"
"FAMMToday_5.xls"
Is there a way to pull the latest file?

The script collects all the files in directory and sub-directories and list them in ascending format, I want them to get in transpose format. like for example: Root folder has many sub directories and in them a sub directory XYZ has 5 excel files, it will get the sub directory name in Col A and transpose all .xls files.
Col A | Col B________|Col C_________ |Col D___________|Col E________|
XYZ__|C:/root/test.xls|C:/root/Sales.xls |C:/root/Report.xls |C:/root/sam.xls|

If there is more than one option to bring up a choice box asking the user to select between them.

Within the 'tools' menu option you have 'Macros'. On a standard tool bar you have the option to record a new macro, edit......, however sometime last week I created a custom button and placed icons on my tool bars that allowed me to click them to record new or run custom made macros. After a clicking the 'custom macro' buttons a few times by mistake, I decided to remove the custom buttons in the hope of returning the macro options (within the 'Tools' menu option) back to normal. However this has not been the case. Now I have no option to record a new macro the the 'tools' menu system.....it has disappeard. Please could someone tell me how I can reset the 'Tools' menu system back to normal?

I am trying to create a simple translation tool for my product catalog, which is in Japanese, to English.
I have the Japanese and the English terms listed in a file (say, File A) in Col A and Col B which will keep increasing every week.
I want to create a macro which goes thru this list and replaces ALL the Japanese terms to English in "ALL THE SHEETS OF THE PRODUCT CATALOG" (say, File B) .
I have created a button in File A so that when I press this button, I browse my computer, select the file (product catalog) to be translated, replace all the Japanese terms to English terms in ALL THE SHEETS and saves it under a different filename.

I have an application that I attached to this post, which I have been working on, for the last four or months, in my free time on the weekends and the last part I need some help with. The doc has been updated with new macros and a chart.
I would like help with a macro that I can activate and cause a message box to appear when I open the excel doc. I would like also to be able to activate the message box and its associated macros after the document has been opened. If you look on Sheet1 of the attachment you’ll get an idea of where I am trying to go with the message box. I would like it to have
- Message “The Current Time is (Macro puts current computer time here)”
- Question “How much time do you have?” then beneath this question
- Blank field labeled Hour to give answer
- Blank field labeled Minute to give answer
Depending on the current time on the computer as well as the hour and minute entered, a macro with a matching title (each macro includes a time, hour, and minute in its Sub name) a code in VBA will be selected that fits that criterion. For example, let’s say it is 5:30am and I entered 1 hr and 15 min in the empty fields of the message box. As a result the macro named “Sub Hour1Min15time530am” will be activated. Also due to the fact that the macros I have are in 15 min intervals the code would need to round to the nearest time, so if it was 5:33am when I ran the code the macro would default to 5:30am whereas if it was 5:39am when I ran the code the macro would default to 5:45am. You’ll see time controls at the bottom of the application. If I can get the code I am looking for those are going to be removed.

I am making a Program search tool for my company. I would like the operator to type a part number into a cell. If the part number is valid (from a master list on a different sheet), then I would like to pull the information from the master list and populate a few cells on the search worksheet.
Example:
An operator types: "W3303-01" in a cell and clicks a button. The macro would populate cells on that worksheet with information from another worksheet that pertains to "W3303-01"

I have 143 macros, but I put 8 of them here b/c the post would not go through with all of them. I couldn't fit all of them on an attachment either b/c the file size was too big. However, I have this goal I have been working on for the last three months on the weekends and the last part.
I would like help with a macro that I can add onto the ones I have. I would like the macro to activate and cause a message box to appear when I open the excel doc. I would like also to be able to activate the message box and its associated macros after the document has been opened.

Do we have NumericUpDown Tool Control in MS Excel 2003 that can be employed on a userform. The one similar to the numericupdown of VB.NET. I want to restrict user to input only numerals. Though I can use IsNumeric Validation in Textbox_Change event but still I was curious to know if there is any other in-built function in MS Excel.

I have 2 sheets, one with users and a tool they have been using, and one with a list of unique users, I would like to count how many unique users are using a tool. The sheets are set up like so,
Sheet 1
User Tool (number of uses)
abcdefg 1
hijklmn 5
1234567 1
1234567, abcdefg, opqurst 2
wxyz123 0
Sheet 2 Have they used the tool
abcdefg
hijklmn
1234567
wxyz123
opqurst
So yes, I am trying to count whether or not the unique users have used the tool, this is a simplifed version as my data set runs into the thousands. I was using the countifs function, but that doesnt count properly if theres more than one user in the group.

I've been look for an excel tool to draw venn diagrams with the 'circle' size in propartion to the set (population) sizes and the correct degree of intersect.
Having no luck I've made one myself - it's not pretty (the code sure is ugly) but it get's the job done.
May not work in versions earlier than xl07 - haven't been able to test
So take a look - pull it to pieces all you want.

How to use the Camera Icon Tool using a Macro?
I want to copy the First Row which is the Column heading of one Sheet to a different Sheet
Example : From Col A till Col G First Row is to be copied as an Image. Normally I do it using the Camera Icon, however when I tried recording a Macro for the same it did not work..
So how do I that if I provide the Start Column and End Column Alphabet as a Variable is that possible.. I want this Image to not remain Volatile which is the case using the Camera Tool..
So, how do i get the picture of only the first row or any row and store it is an Image in a different sheet as static picture so that even when the sheet is moved to a different location it does not make a difference to the Image.

I have an upholstery business and I have created a workbook containing multiple sheets (proposal, invoice, sales order log, etc.. ) Following, I have saved it in Template format, which I open and save by order number somewhere else. The issue is, I don't know how to track what the last order number I used was....
Is there anything I can work using excel that will allow me to make that easier without having to go open a window and looking at the last order number after arranging the workbooks by name inside a folder?

I am a Supply Chain intern at a company for the summer. One project I have been given is to create a tool in excel that allows our purchasing people to type in certain inputs (origin, destination, etc.) to calculate the total cost of shipping an item from a supplier in anywhere from china, to somewhere locally. I am gathering quotes for shipping via ocean and truck. How can I get where I enter in one location, say shanghai, china, shipping to another location, say Norfolk, VA, and get the total mileage difference to show?

way the date are shown can be changed by the date format tool, provided the date was entered the correct way. I think we are missing each other. I think the way the date was entered (17.08.07) and converted to (17/08/07) was good. At first it was in text so one wouldnt have known whether it will be taken as yymmdd, ddmmyy, mmddyy etc. well it end up like as 17(yy), 08(mm), 07(dd) instead as 17(dd), 08(mm) and 07(yy). My Q now is is there a way (formula) to swap these orders around...?

Came across a spreadsheet that my firm created, where you can click on the column header and it automatically sorts ascending order for the column without messing up the other columns. Then if you double click it again, it will sort in reverse order.
