View 5 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if it was possible for a macro to edit a file by opening each .txt file, searching for the word "Reference", and then replace it with the word "Ref". Then save and close the text file.
There are no delimiters in the text files.
I use excel to read in an ASCII data file in which every line beginning with H is a header line and lines beginning with S are data line.
I want excel to filter out the header lines and output the file with the data lines only then outputs these in a new file.
I also want it to read the values from column 72 to 75 and subtract 6 from them then output them again to the same new file.
Sub read()
Open "d:/intouch/0502SPSS.LOG" For Input As #1
Dim i As Integer
Dim lines(9999) As String
i = 0
Do While Not EOF(1)
Line Input #1, z
i = i + 1
If Mid(z, 1, 1) = "H" Then
i = i - 1
ElseIf Mid(z, 1, 1) = "S" Then.................................
the problem is that the new file is generated but it is always empty
A client has sent me an Excel workbook that appears on the screen with the message adivising that it is Protected View as a result of having been downloaded from the internet. If I click on the Enable Editing button the workbook is completely deactivated. I have played around with my Trust Centre settings but nothing seems to work.

What I would like to know is.. if there is a method in which i can copy these values from column A to a text file every hour...
The range of cells containing values in Column A also varies every hour.
Also, the old values in the text file needs to get deleted before the new values are updated every hour.
I am using this code to get me to a path then I click on the file I want and it opens it and makes it a .csv file. Then my code does stuff with it and closes it. My question is, do I even have to click on it? Can I get the macro to automatically open the file. Note the "NewestFolderInThePath" is a function that open me up to the "newest" created folder in the path. From there I double click file.
NewestFolderInThePath = ReturnNewestFolder("\datawhse

Path = "\datawhse

I am trying to edit some formulas Under the Mon-D15 worksheet in this file. The # NUM is where I am having trouble. Basically, what I want to do is only rank the names in C15:C18. I was successful in doing this with C10:C14. But, for some reason it will not work with the lower values.

Is there a way to setup a spreadsheet so data that has been entered cannot ne deleted or edited, and only the last field in the column can be accessible? So if I have info entered in a1, a2, a3, b1, b2, b3, no one can edit or delete them, and can only add to a4 and b4? Will I need to write a macro for this or is it something I can do with certain settings?

I am facing problem with my footer, which is as under:
___________________________________________
E-mail: xxx_yyyy@somewhere.com
My footer should be printed at the bottom of my paper as shown above. But, as expected, when I change margins of page or even change the printing preference, like best print to draft print or like that, it goes changing like this:
________________________________________________E
-mail:xxx_yyyy@somewhere.com
or like this:
_________________________________________________
__E-mail:xxx_yyyy@somewhere.com
So, it become headache for me. i have to first see the print preview and then after I can go for printing. How to deal with this problem?
There should be two lines in footer: first will have _____________________________________only and the second one will have E-mail:xxx_yyyy@somewhere.com
My purpose is to give my endusers a workbook with a macro in it which applies changes to existing workbooks on their computers. I want the enduser to select each workbook to apply the changes and have the macro capture the names of the workbooks so they can verify that all of the appropriate workbooks have been changed.
I’m trying to change two types of data: (1) text, (2) formulas.
Here's what little I have, but not much is working.

Dim targetWorkbook
dlgSource = Application.Dialogs(xlDialogOpen).Show
Set sourceWorkbook = ThisWorkbook
Set targetWorkbook = Workbooks.Item(Workbooks.Count)

It could be either a combobox with the existing Project Id's or a text box + a control button, so a user could enter Project Id and hit a button.

Is it possible to edit multiple =VLOOKUP formulas to add in a "[range lookup]" = FALSE without editing each one individually? I was going to use a find and replace for the "col_index_num" and add the FALSE to the end of that, but in this case my "col_index_num"s vary too much.

This only happens on one sheet within a workbook of 7 pages. The werid thing is that it does not happen on the version before
Any ideas how this could of happened and is there a fix?

Double click - enter and F2 -enter both will do this, but I'd rather not be doing this for 200 rows every time I have to use it. Is there a way to touch all of these rows without VBA? The spreadsheet was built by our IT department years ago and is rather fickle. I can't risk interrupting the code or I end up having to close it and start over. It's password protected.
Text to columns doesn't work.
