I have some files with filenames like text-text-text-text.lastname.xlsm. When I go to save the file, Excel keeps removing the period between the last "-text" and "lastname". change the structured filenaming convention? So far, I've noticed that this seems to happen with .xlsm file extensions, but not with .xlsx file extensions.
View 5 RepliesI have a file of names that has some undisplayable characters. I am trying to match against a different file. It works if I overtype the "blank" fields with a space. How can remove these trailing problem characters whatever they are? I tried CLEAN and TRIM and the mystery characters are still there.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy software is Excel for Mac 2011 version 14.4.3 (140616).
I am using the present value formula =PV(rate, nper, pmt, [fv], [type]), with the pmt expressed as a negative number, to determine the present value of a lump sum that would generate specific, equal, regular annual payments, exhausting itself in the process. I fill it in this way: rate is an annual rate, nper is the number of years the payments run, pmt is the annual amount paid each year, fv =0, type =1
I would like to be able to have a similar formula in Excel that would do the same thing except that it would take into account a time period where no payment is made, ie a "delay".
For example using the PV formula I know that if I have $49,019.96 invested at 1%, it will generate $10,000 per year for 5 years, leaving a net investment of 0. I would like to know the formula that would tell me how much I would need to invest at 1% to yield $10,000 per year for 5 years, again exhausting itself completely in the process, with the first $10,000 payment starting 3 years from now. I know it would be less because I would have the full amount earning interest for 3 years at 1% before any payments need to be made.
Problem I am having:
I want to import a csv file to an Excel workbook. The csv file name does not change, but the workbook which it is pasted into changes name every day (it has a filename which ends in todays date, and is updated daily).
Using the macro recorder I can get the process to work for today, but when as soon as I update the recipient files name the next day, the macro fails.
Code below:
' Sheets("MORCOM").Select
'Range("A5").Select
'Cells.Select
'Selection.ClearContents
'Range("A1").Select
'Workbooks.Open Filename:= _

I'd like to record a macro that allows me to take the current file "file.csv" and save it as "file.xlsx"
I can't get the variable right (just messing around in VBA to have it get the file name and save it as a different format (csv to xlsx)
I've tried:
Function GetFullName() As String GetFullName = ThisWorkbook.FullName End Function
I have an access database where I export a file into excel on a daily basis. The file is saved to a different filename daily because I have added the date to the filename. My question is I have a formatting macro spreadsheet so when I export the file in access it will run the formatting macro in excel to format the sheet appropriately. How do I get the formatting macro to recognize to run if the excel file changes on a daily basis in vba?
This is what I have in the formatting macro:
Sub Auto_Open()
'
' AutoOpen Macro
ChDir "G:SD Forecast and PlanningShortages"
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"G:SD Forecast and PlanningShortagesShopWorkingList10052011.xlsx"
How can I get the formatting macro to run on this file when the date changes constantly in the filename?
I find, when performing a 'save as', xl puts in a default filename with a suffix (1), or (2), or (3) and so on, to the existing filename, after I have opened a file from MS Outlook. I had assumed it was because there was already an existing file in the default directory, and so it was creating another version, but no other files with the same name exist in the default directory being saved to, or on the remainder of my computer, so I don't understand why this occurs.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a dynamic payroll spreadsheet that will automatically calculate the overtime worked in a week. Right now, I'm running into a snag. My issue is with the formula in Column R. Right now, as shown below, it is doing the calculation based on regular hours minus 40 to determine the OT time. The snag is very messy and it lay in this: while the row by row calculations for total overtime worked for the week is correct, the sum at the bottom is very much off. I need an accurate method to sum the hours of overtime for the given column.
Here are the guidelines for the pay periods and overtime:
1. The pay periods for the month go from the 1st to the 15th and the 16th to EOM (End of Month). This means that the pay period could end on any given day of the week. More on this in a moment.
2. A work week is defined as Sunday to Saturday.
3. Overtime is calculated based on the rule of anything over 40 hours in a given work week.
4. Holiday hours worked do not count towards the 40 hour mark in granting overtime since Holiday pay is automatically overtime.
If it were just a matter of a bi-weekly (every 2 weeks) pay period, I would simply state =IF(weekday(DATE)=7,Hours_Worked - 40,0), and tag a SUM(range) at the bottom. Unfortunately, with it being a semi-monthly (twice a month), the end of the pay period could be a Wednesday, so a reference to day of the week won't work unless the formula can dynamically determine which set of data to evaluate.
I'm completely willing to toss out the current method of determining overtime. This is the calculations sheet that references a cleanly formatted and designed time card on a tab called "Time Card", so this isn't the full workbook. In fact, once the whole thing is done, this calculation sheet will be hidden.
Columns M and N (which are formula referenced in Column P) are basic End - Start calculations and were hidden to simplify the display as well as the number of formulas displayed.
Column L (formula referenced) is a Yes/No display for if the date in question is holiday pay.

I have an excel 2007 file which contain a lot of macros. File size is 100MB. This file is not developed by myself, it's post in the webpage and let the members of the page to download on daily basis.. I've been downloading and using this file for over a year with no problem until this week.
Problem: During opening the file. There is a message box popped up, saying "Excel found unreadable content in filename.xlsm'. do you want to recover the contents of this workbook ? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes." When I click "yes", excel is trying to repair the file. Once it's done, I could see only the contents, however, all the macros are gone. When I copied this very same file and open in other notebooks, everything is working fine...
Assumption: Couple days ago, I was writing/testing macros in other workbooks and also opened this particular file. I might did something stupid which cause this problem...
During the same time, I used to have the same problem with another file. I solved it by copy and open with another PC then copy macros and paste it to the file on my notebook.

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.

I have an excel sheet with one column having one sentence in each cell of the column (rest all the cells of the sheet are vacant).
Now, i want to 'find' and 'remove' a list of pre-specified stop words such as "a", "the", "it", "of", etc. from every sentence and then get the resulting sentence pasted in the adjacent columns cell.
(Also for example the word "a" should be removed only when it is a separate word and not part of a word. Likewise for other stop words).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have 5 worksheets that I currently have to add information to and cut/paste information from one to another. The initial information stays the same but I have to cut and paste it into one of the other worksheets based on wether or not we; need to decide on a job, are working on the job, lost the job, won the job or the job is complete.
I would like to create one master worksheet where the information can be entered with a drop down cell stating the status of the job (listed above). I created the master tab and linked the 5 subordinate tabs using an IF formula, but how can the subordinate tabs filter or sort the references and organize them on the top of the page rather than leaving a bunch of blank rows (because the info in these blank rows went to a different subordinate tab)? I want to enter the info in the master tab and simply change the pull down cell to change which subordinate tab the information shows up on. This should allow me to print the subordinate tabs as reports without having to manually cut and paste the info or filter it, correct?

I've got a whole load of cells that have a pipe ( | ) on the end of the value which I'm trying to remove.
Easy enough thinks me, so;
Code:
=LEFT(AB188,LEN(AB188)-1)
And then Copy / Paste Values Still has a pipe on the end... I check the cell for trailing spaces, there are none...
I check the length of the cell (658) against the length of the result from the formula (657)...
So, my formula works, but when I copy and paste as values the pipe remains.
I'm using Excel 2007 and the cell contatins other pipe characters I'd like to keep in there so I can't find and replace or anything.
I am using Excel 2007 on Windows 7. I would like to remove duplicates as follows: If column A = column A, column B = column B, and the two rows are within one hour of each other, then remove all duplicates, leaving one instance of the row. As you can see, sometimes the duplicates are right next to each other, and sometimes have rows between them. (Rows 1 & 2, Rows 30 & 32). Even though this sample doesn't show it, sometimes there can be tens of duplicates within an hour, not just two.
