Data Load (search And Load .csv Files Automatically In Workbook)
Dec 16, 2002
I need to do a macro that will open a search window, the user would select a folder and it will search for a .csv file within it. Then after locating the file, it would automatically load it into a specific sheet in the workbook.
i had a file with 10,500 lines, 18,000 kb and it seemed slow to load (about a minute) every time i made changes and then saved it or reopened it.
so i broke the file up into 3 smaller files by cutting and pasting. i deleted all empty lines and columns beyond the file content. i defragged my compter. i cleared all excess format in job history - but -
one file now has 3,900 lines, 22,300 kb and takes 4 minutes to load.
one file now has 2,000 lines, 20,100 kb and takes 4 minutes to load.
one file now has 4,900 lines, 14,500 kb and takes 1 minute to load.
In my spreadsheet I load 26 CSV files. Each CSV file has 3 columns and 7 rows. It uses the connection query in Excel. It is only relatively slow to refresh the data. To refresh the data, I can press the refresh data button in Excel.
I have seen spreadsheets where there are macros embedded that 1) check to see if the Analysis Tookpak is loaded and 2) Load the Analysis Tookpak if it is not loaded. I would like to do the same in a spreadsheet that I am creating and using. Does someone have example macros they could share that do what I am asking?
I wish for a macro to look in to a directory which remains constant, but then looks within a folder which is specified via a cell value in order to load a specific sheet from each file in to the workbook I am currently using. I wish for the loading to be done without having to open the workbooks manually, so something which opens them copies the data from the sheet specified and then closes.
This data is then to be pasted in to a new sheets within my workbook which are named after the file names that it pulls the "dump" sheet from.
As a side note, I will be using these sheets to produce calculations hopefully automatically as soon as they are loaded. They all have the same "shape" but contain differing data. Will it be easier in the long run for me to use this method of pasting data to new sheets named as their file names assuming there will be around 25 "dump" sheets needing to be loaded or would i be better having them paste all to one sheet just underneath each other with a couple of rows separating them?
i am working with a large data set of excel files . I need to format the sheets in a specified way . i have recorded a marco that does this . I now have the problem of creating an automatic loader that opens the files , carrys out my macro , then closes the files.
For example i have a folder X that has 10 files inside it. i would like to be able to load the first file , carry out the macro, close the file move it folder y . Then look back into Folder X , take the first file it see's , carry out the macro , close the file , move it folder y , the go back to folder x and carrying out this until all the files are done and stopping when the folder is empty
In a previous post I found how to tranfer data from 1 workbook to another workbook, but its hard coded. I been working on a userfrm to load a workbook (WKb2) then do the data tranfer. As the bottom Hard code not good as workbook2 name changes each release (7 days).
I would like to know how can make upper Userfrm code below of the path, Have it provide the WKb2 value for the cod eat the bottom. I know it easy and must be over looking something.
I have this code that works in Word but when I try it in Excel I get a "runtime error 438/object does not support this property or method" on this line: "For Each ish In Sheets("SDF & ER").InlineShapes"
Code: Sub LoadPEGC() Dim ish As InlineShape Dim cbo As MSForms.ComboBox Dim xlapp As Object Dim xlbk As Object
I have a main form (Form1). From this main form another is loaded (form2) and then if necessary another form is loaded (form3). On form3 I have the following
how I would go about addressing this issue. I am given a directory with individual files in it. Each file has critical information I have to extract from it. So, I want the user to provided this directory to the macro and I want the macro to cycle through each file in this directory (excluding super and sub direcories), open it, retrieve info, and close it
im using an adapted version of Roys database. Heres my
Private Sub cmbFindcode_Click() Application. ScreenUpdating = False Sheet3.Activate
Dim strFind, FirstAddress As String 'what to find Dim rSearch As Range 'range to search Set rSearch = Sheet3.Range("b8", Range("b65536").End(xlUp)) strFind = Me.TextBox2.Value 'what to look for Dim f As Integer If Me.TextBox2.Value = "" Then MsgBox "Please enter a Fund code to search for" Goto nullentered End If With rSearch Set c = .Find(strFind, LookIn:=xlValues) If Not c Is Nothing Then 'found it..................
This works fine for the first part - i.e it loads the data into the textboxes, and loads the headers and first search result into the listbox. However it always only loads the first search result, not all.If its not clear I can post a simplified example of the working spreadsheet.
Error in data validation: "A named range you specified cannot be found." However, the named ranges are in the Name Manager, and if I go to the sheet and select the range, I can see it is already named.
Full description:
I created a spreadsheet model (no VBA, just formulas, etc) in a workbook that another coworker took and added VBA to. However, he was not working with the most updated version. So last night I checked the sheets which had the same names, made sure there were no differences except the changes I had made since that version, and then moved the ones from my current workbook into his workbook.
On the sheet where the user was to input details of the report, there are 4 cells that each contain different lists (non-dependent). I want the user to only be able to choose one of the 4 drop down menus - that is, if any of the 4 cells are filled in, I would like the other 3 to default to N/A (or somehow not be allowed to be chosen). This was solved in a previous thread:
Using A1: =IF(COUNTA(A2:A4),NA(),G2:G6) from the other thread solution, I used a named range instead of G2:G6 and it worked well.
When I merged the files together, the 4 cells no longer worked at all. It was suggested that I look at the Name Manager, and some of te named ranges I had were in there multiple times. I cleaned them up.
I tried to enter the same formula again, and it gave me the specific error: "A named range you specified cannot be found." However, the named ranges are in the Name Manager, and if I go to the sheet and select the range, I can see it is already named.
I am unable to load the spreadsheet due to sensitive data, and removing the data would make the workbook make no sense.
I want to load the actual data exist in the rows by selection value from the data validation list.
E.g I have two worksheet in one excel file. One has a data activities of persons with their name like two columns i have in which one exist the name of person and second exist the activities which they perform.
On the second sheet, i made a data validation list of all the person names
Now my requirement is, when i select a person name from the list, load all the data from the 1st sheet to second sheet. Is this possible without VB code, because I want to share it on the Google sheet with my boss, where VB sheet is not supposed to work.
I'm in the process of continuing to build this babe (very slowly, as I have limited programming knowledge), and I wondered if there was a way to modify this code to make it refresh the data page if a server's page fails to load.
Part of my code is something like this, the first part being just the pseudo log on script.
Especially when there are over 50 pages to grab, the chances of one of the pages failing to load is VERY high, and this macro stops at the "Refreshbackground=False" command.
Is there a way to trigger a "refresh" once it fails?
I have this piece of code that loads a list box and it has worked without 1 problem for the longest time.
Today, there have been 4 or 5 instances when it doesn't work, where I hit the load button and it does nothing.
I have closed down and restarted and it seems to work but this is very annoying

Userform.Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(Filename)
Userform.Show I can choose a picture and it will be vissible in the Userform.
The problem is it's not saved into the userform it self. How can i make it so that when i choose a picture it's also the picture i see the next time i open the userform.
how I can pass a value to this function. For example I know the record id that I want loaded, it is 42, so I want to create a button that brings up record id 42 when clicked. I think to do this I would load the form, then call cmbSelect() and pass it Me.TextBox1 = Value "42", but I am not sure on the syntax on how to do this
Private Sub cmbSelect_Click() Dim r As Integer Dim cell As Range, rngRecord As Range
' Locate indicated record For Each cell In MyData If CStr(cell) = Me.TextBox1 Then For Each rngRecord In cell.Range("B1:AS1") If rngRecord.Offset(-rngRecord.Row + 1, 0) <> "" Then Me.Controls(CStr(rngRecord.Offset(-rngRecord.Row + 1, 0))) =
I created the csv file from excel sheet. Now I have created a copy of that excel sheet in a new sheet, and I am trying to load that saved csv in the new sheet. But when I do that I see some cells formatting mismatch (can be seen in attached picture) though I clicked on preserve cell formatting at the time of import.
I'm trying to load the following XML file in Excel 2007 (from Excel 2007 VBA Programmmer's Reference) and get the error "Strict Parse Error" when I do so.
I have a checkbox with a userform. I can get it so that if I enable it and add data then it correctly shows as "Yes" or "No" within excel. However if I open the data using offset the checkbox is greyed out with neither Yes or No. Is there a way to make the checkbox allow and show a value of Yes/No?
I want in Cell A1 type by sample: GU23 and then presenter or press a button, and in cell E1 display the jpg image with a specific Size, mmm 40x40 is possible?
I have a Macro that copys all the cells with a 9 digit number in a range and lists them into col CC
However the way it is written Each macro is stored into its own worksheet. the problem is that i need to do this for all 43 tabs in the workbook which means a lot of copy and past when I build a new workbook.
So is there a way to load 43 diffrent macros into the 43 sheets in vba?
Or is there a way i can make the macros Global? so that they can all be stored in the same place but still work?
The below macro is saved under the workseet "PEBBLES" in vba
Code:
Code:
Sub Pebbles() Dim objReg As Object, objMatch As Object, objColl As Object Dim rngWhole As Excel.Range Dim rngCell As Excel.Range Dim lngRow As Long: lngRow = 1 Set objReg = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp")
I have created some user defined functions and have associated them to a custom category. To simplify things, I wanted to add these functions and the custom category macro to an Addin I already have installed for all my employees. How do I get the the custom category macro to excecute? It should run as soon as excel is opened...but I am not sure what event should be used and where is it installed?
I have an userform, with a label and several commandbuttons(for instance, command button A, B, C, ...) . Now if I click the command button A I would like to load in the label A text previously written in sheet1 range A1, if I click the command button B I would like to load in the label another text previously written in sheet1 range b1 (the old text shouuld obviously disappear)
