Error 53 At Open Filename For Output

Jun 2, 2009

I try to make a macro for saving an Excel sheet to a .CSV file with "@" as delimiter.

At the line "Open fname For Output As #fnum", the Error 53, "no file found" occurs.

The Excel-help is saying that if the file is not present, a new file will be made.

This error occurs now and then, How to proceed?

Full macro:


Sub SaveAsCSV()
Path = "O:actueel"
Fname1 = Path & Range("E2").Value & ".csv"
fname = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(Fname1, "CSV bestand (*.csv), *.csv", , "")
If fname = False Then
MsgBox "Macro Geannuleerd"
Exit Sub
End If

VBA Open Filename Works For Some Users Fails For Others

Sep 23, 2013

My company has several users that access a file (File A) that has a macro in that opens another file on their F drive called TEST.XLS. The code (in File A) to do this is:

Workbooks.Open Filename:="F: est.xls"

Just recently this code has failed for some users but not others. For those where it failed I confirmed that they do indeed have the file located on drive F.

As a test, one of the users where the above code failed ran the macro recorder while opening the file (Test.xls) on their F drive. The recorder produced the following code:

Workbooks.Open Filename:="\companynetsta$jsmith est.xls"

It appears the code is failing because Excel is looking for a UNC path as opposed to a drive letter (F).

I prefer that the code that looks at the Drive letter F be used.

How can I get the following code to workWorkbooks.Open Filename:="F: est.xls" ....for all users that have an F drive?

Open File With Changing Filename-2007

Aug 1, 2008

I would like to create a macro to open a file in Excel 2007. My problem is that the filename changes often. After updates are made the filename is changed and the old file is moved to a backup folder. So, there is only one similar file in the folder

My filename is "RFQ Worksheet 7 29 2008.xlsx".
The path is "C:Documents and SettingsahaynijDesktop".

Open File In Directory With Part Of Filename As String

Mar 11, 2014

I have a Workbook "forecast.xlsx" and several Workbooks which have a individual Number in the Filename (E.g. "3960........xls", "3961.......xls etc.) in the same directory as "forecast.xlsx" + projects"

Now, I would like to browse through "forecast.xlsx" in column H, searching for hyperlinks. In Column H are these Projectnumbers located which are used in the filenames above. Whenever the Cell cointains a hyperlink, following should happen (that far i managed it by myself):

- Store the Cellvalue in a String Variable
- Go to the Directory this.workbook + projects
- browse this folder, searching for a File which contains the stored string in its filename
- open the file
- copy a range
- close file
- This.workbook.Activate
- follow the Hyperlink which has been stored as String before
- paste selection
- continue browsing through column H, looking for the next hyperlink.

I have a VBA which runs bugless, but it copies the wrong range, but to the correct destination.

See the code below:

Sub RESLT_INPUT_ALL()
Dim cell As Object
For Counter = 1 To 1000
Set cell = Worksheets("Projects overview").Cells(Counter, 8)
If cell.Hyperlinks.Count > 0 Then

Excel 2010 :: Macro To Open XLSM File Based On Latest Date Found In Filename

Feb 11, 2013

I'm on excel 2010 and I have a small group excel files I open everyday. Most of the files are static in name and location. I've got a macro created to open those files, which works fine with workbooks.open and the file path.

There are two report files I want to incorporate into my macro of workbooks to open. The files are created weekly and the files names have the following format: "Report Name (YYYY-MM-DD).xlsm". I don't want to use the file's last modified date because older files may get edited after the more recent ones are created. The files are also not always created on the same day, so the solution needs to be flexible enough to not refer to a specific day of the week or anything.

Macro open an excel file based on the latest date found in filename.

Error Handling When File Already Open

Feb 27, 2012

I recorded a macro to save a worksheet as a PDF file

It works fine, except when the PDF file is already open - Excel returns an error message and stops.

Can I use some error handling code to prevent the error, maybe bring up a msgbox and exit the sub at the point where the error occurs?

The part of the code where it stops is:

ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= _
"C:UsersDaveDesktopTestingDemo List.pdf", Quality:= _
xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _
OpenAfterPublish:=False

Error Handling - Checking If Workbooks Open

Nov 25, 2013

I'm trying to add a little error handling in my code. I have a macro that, when running opens a number of workbooks. At the end of the macro, my code then closes all the workbooks I've opened.

I was wanting to create an error-handling procedure that displayed a message box, and then closed any workbooks that I've opened during the course of the macro. Obviously the error could trigger at any point, so not all workbooks may have been opened at the time

My code is as follows - I've tried On Error Resume Next in the error-handling code, but Excel still returns an error that it can't find the Incidents_MTD sheet when trying to close it.

Code:
On Error GoTo ReportError
code
code
code
ReportError:

Workbook Open Events Fires Once. Subsequent Opens Causes Error

I have a program that uses the Document Open event to display a custom form. This program is being used on about 50 computers for the past 8 years with no problems. One user has a problem now. They can open the program once and the code fires. But when the user tries to open the same file a second time, the "Microsoft Excel has encountered a problem and needs to close" dialog box is displayed. The document that is recovered has no vba modules and no code in the Document open event. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Office Professional. Shut down all firewalls.

Runtime Error 1004 - Cannot Open Pivot Table Source File

Nov 14, 2012

I am trying to adapt a macro to run on data that is consistently in the same format but the data does change, the macro needs to run over and over on new excel workbooks, dynamic range ? instead of a set source ?

Sheets.Add
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
"weekly71012!R1C1:R9379C30", Version:=xlPivotTableVersion14). _
CreatePivotTable TableDestination:="Sheet1!R3C1", TableName:="PivotTable1" _
, DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion14

I am sure this is the problem as i initially created the macro using weekly71012 excel file however i just want it to run on every file i pull it off?
