Displaying Filenames In A Combo Box With No Extension

Sep 21, 2006

I took this code from another post and modified it slightly to look in my directory "C:cherylpostal" and list the names of all the files contained. I then have them displayed in a combo box. They are all CSV files, but I would really like them to appear without the .CSV extension. For example, my COQ4 file appears as COQ4.CSV but I would like it to just display COQ4. I can't seem to make it work however.

Sub Macro1()

Dim rngOut As Range
Dim strPath As String
Dim strFile As String

Set rngOut = Range("F1")
strPath = "C:cherylpostal"
strFile = Dir(strPath & "*.*")
If strFile = "" Then
MsgBox "No files matching criteria can be found in " & strPath, vbExclamation
Exit Sub
End If
Do While strFile <> ""
rngOut = strFile
Set rngOut = rngOut.Offset(1, 0)
strFile = Dir
Loop

End Sub

Listing Filenames In A Column

Jul 20, 2006

I have about 50 CSV files in a directory and would like to list them in a column that I can use them to populate a box so that a user can select the file they want in the box and open it in a new spreadsheet.

I have tried several ways to do this but nothing I do works.

At present I am using an imput box for the user to type in the filename, but if they type incorrectly, or type in a file name that doesnt exist the program just exits because of my error trap.

Splitting Workbook With Cells As Filenames?

Jan 21, 2014

I am attempting to split my workbook and save the sheets as individual files. Simple enough? yes. The issue I am running into is that when the sheets export I want their filename to be pulled from the value of a cell on a master control sheet. While I am pretty sure these can be done separately, not sure how to really do them as a whole within a one click button. Also an issue I am running into is that when I click my export button on my control page, the sheets that are saved have lost some of the page formatting.

SHEET1 is my control sheet

Here is the code that I was using to export the sheets.

Retrieve Filenames From Given Directory Into Excel

Jun 3, 2006

I'm trying to retrive files from a given directory into excel.

I already have this file from another posted message:

Sub GetFileNames()
Dim F As Long
Dim FileName As String
Dim TheNames As Variant

ReDim TheNames(1 To 1)
FileName = Dir$("*.*")

Do While Len(FileName)
F = F + 1
ReDim Preserve TheNames(1 To F)
TheNames(F) = FileName
FileName = Dir$()
Loop

Cells(1, 1).Resize(F, 1).Value = Application.Transpose(TheNames)
End Sub

But I want to be able to set the path myself

Sorting Array Of Alphanumeric Filenames

Dec 19, 2013

Have an array that contains file names similar to these:

\serversharesmysharesomefolder3_s6_macro_cycle22_2Ft10p75.txt
\serversharesmysharesomefolder1_s6_macro_cycle22_2Ft10p75.txt
\serversharesmysharesomefolder25_s6_macro_cycle22_2Ft10p75.txt
\serversharesmysharesomefolder32_s6_macro_cycle22_2Ft10p75.txt

I need to sort the array in ascending order based on the file name. The file name is after the last “” and starts with a number(s). From my example above I would like the resulting sort order to look like this:

\serversharesmysharesomefolder1_s6_macro_cycle22_2Ft10p75.txt
\serversharesmysharesomefolder3_s6_macro_cycle22_2Ft10p75.txt
\serversharesmysharesomefolder25_s6_macro_cycle22_2Ft10p75.txt
\serversharesmysharesomefolder32_s6_macro_cycle22_2Ft10p75.txt

I want to use the Application.GetOpenFilename to populate the array and then process the filenames.

I assumed you data starts in "A1"
Results start "F1"

Code:
Sub MG19Dec38()
Dim varFiles As Variant ' used to hold array of file to open
Dim ray
Dim j As Long, i As Long
Dim Temp1 As Integer
Dim Temp2 As Integer
Dim Tem As String

' ray = Application.GetOpenFilename("Txt Files (*.txt), *.txt", , , , True)

VBA To Determine Filenames Of Open Workbooks

Sep 2, 2009

I have a userform which prompts a user to select two files from the directory. Once these two files are open I will extract data from one into the other, the only problem is these filenames will change and I need to be able to determine what their names are.

I have this code below:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
FiletoOpen = Application.GetOpenFilename _
(Title:="Please choose a file", _
FileFilter:="Excel Files *.xls (*.xls),")

If FiletoOpen = False Then
MsgBox "No file specified."
Exit Sub
Else
Filename1 = FiletoOpen
TextBox1.Value = Filename1
End If

End Sub

If I could somehow extract the exact filename, not full path, from the variables Filename1 and Filename2 I would be fine I guess, I just don't know how to do that.

Browse Directory, Open Specified Filenames Then Close

May 5, 2006

I have done a search in the forum, and there are many results on browsing directory and opening files, but they are not what I have in mind.

What I have is different folders for different months (e.g. January, February, March and so on), and in each folder I have the same file names (e.g., in January folder, I have files called A, B, C. In February, I also have files A, B, C but these are different from the files in other folders)

Basically I need a macro which can open a specific list of files.

So first step, the user should be able to browse the directory, then select a folder (no need to open, not sure if it makes any difference though). I need the user to be able to select different folders because the macro should work for the different months in different years.

For this, I have found this
Function GetFolderPath() As String
Dim oShell As Object
Set oShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application"). _
BrowseForFolder(0, "Please select folder", 0, "c:\")
If Not oShell Is Nothing Then
GetFolderPath = oShell.Items.Item.Path
Else
GetFolderPath = vbNullString
End If
Set oShell = Nothing
End Function...........

Excel 2010 :: Loop Through To Check For All Filenames In Folder And If Then?

Dec 22, 2013

getting a function working within Excel 2010. What I'm trying to do is to first look in a specific directory and loop through each foldername then check to see if the foldername exists in column B of my worksheet. If the foldername exists then check Column E of the same row for a specific value ("assigned") and then make sure column F of the same row has no picture inside the cell. If those three things exist (column B foldername and column E "assigned" and no picture in column F), then add a picture to column F of the same row as the foldername with a hyperlink to a filename of "notes.one" in that specific folder. Then just loop through each foldername in the specific directory until all foldernames have been checked.

Save A File As Multiple Filenames By Single Macro?

Aug 15, 2006

The reports I build work from a basic template with 10 or so separate, slightly different versions. In order to make them I currently update the data in the template and then click on "File>Save As..." ten times, renaming the file as appropriate.

Example:

Overall Report for yyyy/mm/dd
Partner A report for yyyy/mm/dd
Partner B report for yyyy/mm/dd
ad nauseum..

Is there an easy macro that could save and rename my file multiple times? It would need to accept manual input for the date. Preferably it would be something that I could easily tweak to change the filenames and number of reports saved as this is most of what I do.

Get Data From Changing Filenames & Move Files To Another Folder

Nov 22, 2007

I am trying to develop an excel macro to accomplish the following:

-I have a master workbook for collecting data
-One folder will be used to dump excel files into; I don't know the filenames (other than "*.xls"), but I do know from which cells I will need to retreive data (they will be the same for all files)

1. I need to retrieve data from these excel files
2. After getting data from a file, it is then moved to another folder
3. Next the retreive data, then move is performed on the next excel file until there are none left in C:IN

Upon searching this forum, I found a way to open each of these files one by one (without having to know the filenames): Using a script to open unspecified file name

- For me, the obstacle seems to be not knowing how to do what I need to without knowing the filenames

- Again, the issue - retrieve data from these files, then rename/move these files

List All Filenames In Directory On Worksheet (including Subfolders Contents)

Sep 10, 2011

I was wondering if there is a way to list all filenames from a directory on a worksheet including the files located within it's subfolders? I found a bit of code at [URL] that is as follows, but I can't seem to get it to read the files in the subfolders... Also, would it at all be possible to hotlink each entry so that the user can double-click the name in the sheet and open the file?

VB:

Sub ListAllFile() Dim objFSO As Object Dim objFolder As Object Dim objFile As Object Dim ws As Worksheet Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set ws = Worksheets.Add 'Get the folder object associated with the directory Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("C:") ws.Cells(1, 1).Value = "The files found in " & objFolder.Name & "are:" 'Loop through the Files collection For Each objFile In objFolder.Files ws.Cells(ws.UsedRange.Rows.Count + 1, 1).Value = objFile.Name Next 'Clean up! Set objFolder = Nothing Set objFile = Nothing Set objFSO = Nothing End Sub
