Excel 2007 :: How To Find Bloat In A File
Apr 16, 2013
I have several sheets I use for MI and most have similar amounts of data in, ie, a tab for each month with out 15-20 columns and upto 10,000 rows, then a couple of summary sheets with filtering and calculations in.
One of my sheets is currently 16Mb, when the others are about a third of that, with similar amounts of data.
Is there a way to find what is causing the extra space to be taken in this sheet?
Or does this seem about right for the amount of data?
I'm using 2007.

What is it with Pivot Tables and their gigantic file size increases. I have a file. Which has a table of data behind it of approximately 5000-6000 rows and ~ 100 columns of data. If I save the file without the Pivot Table it's filesize is Mb. If I save it with the Table and Chart its filesize increases to over 10 Mb. I am experimenting with dynamically creating the pivot table so that I can conserve storage space but if someone has some idea on why pivot tables consume so much space

I have a macro-enabled template file in Excel 2007. I would like the user to be unable to save in any format other than macro-enabled. They should be free to choose a path and filename, but not the file type.
I presume this means some VBA code in the before save event, but I don't know what.

Using Microsoft Excel 2007, VBA
I am trying to display an error message if a range is missing '0' or '100', or is empty.
I figured out how to display error when the selected range is empty, but I cannot figure out how to find if a particular value exists within a range and return an error if there isn't.

File name is customer_list_xxxxxx.xlsx The x's are a date which changes every day or week. So a new file will be uploaded to the sharepoint path.
Example customer_list_041414.xls
I've tried so many different code options for this, but no luck.

</GPSSetup>
<GPSSetup id="GPSSetupID_18" GPSReceiverDetailsID="GPS_1" antennaHeight="1.660000" stationName="GPS_Auto_0080">

I received a USB drive from a client with an Excel spreadsheet with hyperlinks to PDF's (not sure of the version it was originally created in but my version is 2007). The PDF's are in another folder on the USB drive.
The cells with the hyperlinks have a formula to hidden cells [i.e. =HYPERLINK(C17,B17)] - in column B is the name of the hyperlink and in column C looks to be the file trial to the PDF (please see attached picture).
When I select the link, I get an Alert Box stating, "Cannot open the specified file." How I can get these links to work?

I have files that have thousands of rows in them with company names. The rows contain the company name plus lots of other info. I'd like to be able to create files or sheets with the company name as the file or sheet name with the respective rows contained within it. Make sense?
For example:
Original file or sheet
Date Company Info1 Info2
Jul Sams Expense Desk
Jan Freds Expense Doughnuts
Jun Sams Deposit Return
Feb Sams Expense Food
Dec Freds Expense TV
Would become:
Sheet or File Sams
Date Company Info1 Info2
Jul Sams Expense Desk
Jun Sams Deposit Return
Feb Sams Expense Food
Sheet or File Freds
Date Company Info1 Info2
Jan Freds Expense Doughnuts
Dec Freds Expense TV

I'm having some trouble with a spreadsheet copy.
I have a spreadsheet listed out with 2-3 pieces of data per row like:
Mark - abc
John - def
John - ghi
Abby - xyz
etc.
What I need to do is create a new file for each unique string in column A. So for my brief example above, the "Mark" file would have 1 row, the "John" file would have 2 rows, etc. I also need to save the new file by the name in the first column (so "mark.xls"). (Conveniently, the table is sorted by the first column already.)
What I did was create a new worksheet for each row and then save that as my file. However I'm having problems getting my file to contain more than one row (I can get either the first or last row, but not all of them). I have about 30 spreadsheets to do this for, and each will create 80+ files... I'd really rather not do them by hand.
I'm on Excel 2007 if that matters.
I cobbled together some code I found in various places and this is what I have so far:
Code:
Sub CreateWorkbooks()
Dim newSheet As Worksheet, regionSheet As Worksheet, CurSheet As Worksheet
Dim cell As Object
Dim regionRange As String
Dim lngRows As Long
Dim CurRow As Long
[Code]...
(note that the comments are what it is supposed to be doing, not necessarily what it is doing)

I have an excel add-in which is a ribbon which houses a great deal of financial tools that I use on a regular basis so I don't have to hunt around excel for things I use regularly. The add-in has always loaded automatically whenever I opened excel - whether I opened excel by creating a new blank document or by double clicking a previously existing file.
Starting a few days ago though, the add-in only opens when opening excel by creating a new blank file. I can't think of anything that changed recently. Using Excel 2007.
Even when opening a file by double clicking, Excel still says the add-in is active (in excel options).

I have a table with names of employees in Column A, the data for each employee is written in columns B, C and D.
I'd like to be able to type in this data in cells E12-E14 and have Excel bring up all of the names in the table that are associated with this data, and preferably separate them with commas.
I'm working with Excel 2007, without VBA/Marcros.
Please see the example file: find_name_example.xlsx

I'm running Microsoft Office 2007.
I have 2 separate tables.. both a list of contacts of sorts.
In one table I have a list of all my clients (table A), in the other I have a list of "preferred" clients (table B).
The contact details etc that are stored in table A are more comprehensive to those in table B.
Effectively, I want to search for all of my preferred contacts from table B and filter for them in table A.
Then ideally I will sort alphabetically and just cut and paste the details into my preferred client spreadsheet.
I had a look online and there was something about creating a "relationship" but I don't think excel 2007 allowed me to do it. I certainly hadn't heard of powerview or powerpivot that they were using!

I'm running Excel 2007 on Windows 7.
I've got a crude code which searches for multiple alphanumeric data. The code is below:-
Code:
Cells.Find(what:="1kp", _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
lookat:=xlWhole, _
[Code]...
I want to make this code more efficient by searching for either 1kp, 2kp or 3kp in one process & 'doing the same thing' at one time. How do I achieve this?
Explained slightly differently, the code should look something like this:- Find 1kp or 2kp or 3kp. Then do something with the found results.

I am wanting to find rows that with unique values in the first column, and then take those rows and display them in a more readable format. The section titled input is an example of information that would be pulled from a query into Excel. The Desired Output section is how I would like the info to be displayed. If this is possible without VBA then that is even better.

MyMsg = "Did you remember to name and save this file to your computer?"

I have an XLS file that gets data from an imported XML file. I need to apply some filters and then export it in a new XML file. I'm trying both "Development->Export" and "Save as->XML Data" procedures, but it always saves all data in the XLS document, not only the filtered. How can I obtain a new XML file with only filtered data???

I have Excel 2007
Every time I start up excel whether it's opening a new spreadsheet or an existing one it tries to open one that I had deleted a while ago. I have nothing in my xlstartup files and I have thoroughly searched all files around it, before it, after it, and all in between. I went to Excel Options>Advanced>General and there is nothing in the field where it says "At startup open all files in:"
It seems to be trying to open the file from my desktop.

I'm working with a file from SharePoint (FileA), "FileA" goes out to Sharepoint and opens "FileB" (if not already open) then copies information from "FileA" to "FileB". However if "FileA" is left open, or someone else has it open I am unable to open "FileA". How in VBA can I check to ensure I don't have it open locally (if so swich and continue), checkout and open in SharePoint (if not already open) or Prompt with options to force checkin, checkout to copy info?
Simple VBA copy I used:
Workbooks.Open FileName:= _
"http://sharepoint.baaa.com/sites/SCDT_DSD/Weekly_Releases/11.%20Combined%20Weekly%20Task%20List/1/Automated_Status_Update.xlsm"
Sheets("1").Select
Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues

I imported the data into excel but the issue is the description.

I am using Excel 2007, here's my question:
I just wrote two macros that each produce separate text files (call them 'A' and 'B'). I want to open 'B' with Excel VBA, copy all of its contents, and paste that content into 'A' right after a specific location in 'A' (where I have 10 consecutive asterisks, i.e., **********).
Most topics relating to Excel VBA and .txt files have to do with either importing / exporting into Excel (not what I want), or with associating .txt files to Excel (also not what I want).

I want the entire query content to be populated in the row without parts of query to spillover to other column (based on comma etc in the query)

I have two spreadsheets. one contains a master list of computer names. the other contains a list of computer names to be removed from the master list (exception list).
I need to go through the master list and remove any computer names that are on the exception list- for example, if 'computer1' is in the exception list, i have to find and remove 'computer1' from the master list.
The exception list is quite long, and I want to automate this process if possible. not sure how to achieve this.
I'm using Excel 2007 Standard.
