Directory Looping Copying And Pasting
May 28, 2008
In my very crude code below....I would like to speed up the coding so by extracting data from some 800 CLOSED workbooks and pasting the data from Non-contiquous cells in an active workbook on one sheet. Can't seem to ge the = Excelmacro4 closed workbooks method to work so I went with opening each workbook, extracting data and then closing each workbook...way too slow.
Question 2. As the loop progresses...I would like to concatenate the text strings copied from the Source books Ranges G4 and G5 as they are pasted into a single cell in the destination workbook. Can't figure out how to either concatenate or xlpaste special in the coding.
Question 3. IF a user has a one of the workbooks OPEN, how do I copy that data as well other than On Error Resume Next?
Dim wbOpen As Workbook
Dim wbDest As Workbook
Dim WS As Worksheet
Dim i As Long
Sub GetdaData()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False

I purchased the book VBA and Macros for excel and it has gotten me pretty far in this code, but I am having difficulty with one code though. I want the Macro to run through a specified directory, and copy the contents of the specified cells (9th row to last row) from each file and paste them in the next available space on my master. Then repeat this process for each file in the file directory. So far, it is successfully going through each file, but it isn't pasting it to my master sheet.
Dim lCount As Long
Dim wbResults As Workbook
Dim wbCodeBook As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim NextRow As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
On Error Resume Next
Set wbCodeBook = ThisWorkbook
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.LookIn = "K:ESAR GroupForecasting"
.FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
.Filename = "*.xls".........................

I am looking to loop through a folder and open every workbook in the folder. For every workbook I would like to copy a range in a worksheet named "explain" and paste values into a separate file. All in all this separate file would be a consolidation of the information from the individual workbooks.

I have a matrix of coordinates in sheet ("layout") (eastings - V4:BR4, northings - U5:U100). I'm trying to run through each northing (row value U5:U100), for every easting (V4:BR4), by writing the coordinate value to sheet("ISO_model"), cell K18. Within the sheet (ISO_model) there is a model which gives an output in cell HA500. I'd like to write this output (for the specific easting and northing) back into the sheet ("layout"), so that I then have the x,y, z values to create a contour plot.
I've tried to start the look through the row of eastings, but it is not working.
Sub noise_contour()
For Each Cell In Range("V4:BR4")
'write coordinate into the model
[Code]....

I wrote the following routine to loop files in folder. I have 4 .xls files in my test folder. This code is only grabbing 1 then exiting. I have used the Dir() loop before with no problems.
Code:
Private Sub GetDataMultipleFiles(ByVal importExt As String, ByVal xFileNum As Integer, ByVal importLoc As String)
Dim Sep As String, myFile As String
Sep = Application.PathSeparator
myFile = Dir(importLoc & Sep & "*" & importExt & "*")
Do While Len(myFile) > 0
[Code] ..........

I have a directory with over 100 .txt files. I want to open each file, parse the data and copy the data into a new file which has numerous formulas and functions to perform on the data. I have the code for doing all the work, but I have to open each file individually and run the macro. I would like to loop through all the files in the directory to perform the same fuctions. I need the looping code for getting the files from the directory.

I want to copy the current region on sheet 3 and paste that into sheet2 starting with cell E4. But I don't want to actually use the copy method. I believe there is a way to do this. I was thinking the following:
[Code] ......
The idea I had was to simply state that cell E4 would be assigned the value of CurrentRegion on sheet 3. Is there a way to bypass the copy method?
If not, how to copy, then paste?

I've got cells which change after I use Solver to do simulations, These cells after the calculation is run I'd lke to paste into a seperate sheet and row for example (in preparating of charting them for example)..
I would like to paste it as folllows for example... .. but problem is, let's say the below list are in column A of the new sheet, than column B would be the first output of the calculation in the other sheet, column C would be the second output from the calculation in the other sheet. and so on..
I don't know the first thing on scripting, but I'd like to click on button where the calculations are made which when clicked on ,will paste to the other sheet in this sort of manner below.
Each calculation will use another column.. so the script must recognise there is other columns to the left already filled, ie. B, C, D, E F, coresponding to the results of calculations already performed.

I am attempting to amalgamate several (100+) spreadsheets into a single spreadsheet. The data is very simple (only three columns, several rows). I have written a simple macro to copy 5 spreadsheets (called TIMESHEET1, TIMESHEET2 etc) into 1 spreadsheet called AMALGAMATED TIMESHEETS. I would like to expand this using a FOR - NEXT loop if possible - or any other way that someone can think of! I cannot use the variable TIMESHEETx as this is not accepted......

I have attached the file. The row being copied is row "X" for both buttons. I have 2 buttons in the same worksheet to copy a row and insert the copied row below it. I have this macro running for 2 different rows in the worksheet, assigned to the respective 2 buttons. See my code below.

I am creating a macro for a monthly report of inventory. When I filter out items and the copy and paste them to another sheet, how do I tell the macro to paste it in the next available cell rather than say A20? Because the report has a different number of items and filter results from month to month.

I'm trying to write a macro that looks in cell A1:VGH1 for the text "Name:" within the row, then copy that cell and other following cells and paste into a new row. This macro can loop through the row until all instances of the text "Name:" and the following cells are on their own row.
What I have currently.
Name:xxx From:xxx Name:xxx To:xxx From:xxx Name:xxx: To:xxx
The result
Name:xxx From:xxxx
Name:xxx To:xxx From:xxxx
Name:xxx To:xxx

Why my code is not working. When I choose a single column it works. Once I select more than one column it doesn't work. It something to do with my "column1:column2" reference.

I have the following code (which works fine when the sheet isn't hidden)
Code:
FinalRow2 = TtlRev.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
TtlRev.Range("AM6:AO6").Copy
TtlRev.Range(Cells(6, 39), Cells(FinalRow2, 41)).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
However, I need to hide the sheet, but it doesn't work because you can't use .select on a hidden sheet I believe. Any way of doing this to a hidden sheet?

I am having trouble with a project for school. The instructions are: (In Worksheet 1) Type Your Name. Now, begin recording a Macro. Copy and Paste your name from Worksheet 1 to Worksheet 2. Fill in the background and edit the font. End.
Here is an example of the coding.
ActiveCell.Range("A1:E1").Select
Selection.Copy
ActiveSheet.Paste
Application.CutCopyMode = False
With Selection.Interior
.Pattern = xlSolid
.PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
[Code] .....
Now, according to the instructions I should be able to run the Macro in any worksheet....but anytime I run the Macro in any other worksheet I just get a yellow block without my name there.

I have created a daily operating room schedule in which each time slot has a drop down box for the Doctor doing the procedure and the Group of doctors from which he/she came.
It is a yearly schedule with each day of each month duplicated on a tab for that month - the same daily schedule for each.
I have been able to duplicate each day right up until the 25th of the month in which I attempt to save the spreadsheet and am given an error stating it can not save some of the data, though the data appears to be intact (the validation drop down lists)
Upon closing and reopening the spreadsheet, all of the cells that contain validation including and after the 25th of the month are simply gone.
I have attempted to attach a copy of the file but I keep encountering an error with the database.
Zip file with xls file has been added

So, I have a document 25 pages long. It has 26 sections (1-26) and each section has up to 10 (.1 - .10) sub sections which contain 16 (a-p) sub-sub-sections. There are 6 columns of varying widths. Some cells, in a row, merge into adjacent cells.
I would like to break this document into 26 documents - one for each section - so that I may recombine and regroup them in the future incorporating a few modifications. Whenever I copy and paste to a new Workbook, I loose the formatting of column widths. Resetting these alone takes lots of time.
I have come up with is to duplicate the entire document and delete everything above and below the section I would like to save. Then repeat for next section. There's got to be a better way?
