I have a spreadsheet I am trying to create for my mother, it is a relatively simple spreadsheet Date, Time, Guest Name and Vendor columns on the totals worksheet. I also have Monday - Friday sheets set up which have the same columns as the totals sheet.
Throughout the week entries will be made onto the daily worksheets showing the sales data (date, time, guest, sales rep, etc.). I'm trying to get my totals sheet to take every entry from each daily sheets (mon - fri) and place themselves into the totals page. I am not sure if I would be able to make just one formula that will look at that particular cell across each worksheet or if it would get far more complicated.
I was wanting to post the file I am using but I was unable to make an attachment.
Each job has it's own xls file, this is a list of manually input costs and a total cost at the bottom (total is the same Cell reference: G24) for all xls files. The xls file is named the same as the job - F0001, F0002 etc.
At the end of every month we then want to create a master list xls file for all jobs being invoiced that month. This is a list of all the jobs - F0001, F0002 etc. In Column A, and the corresponding cost totals in column B.
In the master file we want to be able to type in the job reference to column A (i.e. the file names of the single job files -F0001, F0002 etc) and have the corresponding total for that reference display automatically in Column B (i.e. Cell G24 from file F0001 will display in the master file cell B1, when 'F0001' is typed in cell A1).
Ideally the master file would display all the individual entries automatically, so no need to input the job references either - simply scanning the directory for the other files present and creating a list automatically in the master file, alternatively it can get the job reference from Cell A1 in the individual job files, instead of from the file name.
I would like the user to select two files, the macro then inputs a formula that includes vlookup to the other sheet. However i am not sure how to reference each workbook.
Sub InsertLocationContents()
Dim rng As Range Dim LastRow As Long
'OPEN CSV FILE WITH LOCATION CONTENTS
csvFN = Application. GetOpenFilename(Title:="Select Location Contents csv file") If csvFN = False Then ' They pressed Cancel MsgBox "Stopping because you did not select a file" Exit Sub Else Workbooks.Open Filename:=csvFN Workbooks.OpenText Filename:= _ csvFN, Origin:=437 _ .............................
So my issue this time is that I have a bunch of columns that correspond to a month. If the user wants to view data from that month column then they have to link to that cell specifically (the worksheet being used is different than the one in which the month columns are)
My goal was to create a single cell in which the user typed in a month abbreviation such as jan, feb, mar.. so on and so forth. From there they correspond to a vlookup table which tells you which month is in what column (because that part never changes) so jan is in column c and feb is in column d... continuing until december is in column n. So the vlookup corresponds to the table and that works fine, type jan into the cell and the vlookup returns c. So i think this will work.
My problem is that in the cell I am typing this in I want it to be a part of a whole cell reference such as c5 or d7 where the 5 or 7 is a constant (I have that part down) however the reference is to another sheet. So in sheet 2 I want to reference sheet 1 i.e.
Formula: [Code].....
<-- is the desired return.
Right now (in sheet 2) I have
Formula: [Select Code] .....
Which returns the desired d5 but as text and not referencing sheet one. I tried
Formula: [Code]....
But this makes the vlookup malfunction (i think it starts looking in sheet 1 for the month cell but it is not and can not be there.
SO how do i force a vlookup to turn into a cell reference, and how do i make that cell reference come from a different worksheet without causing the vlookup to malfunction.
I have an excel file with multiple sheets. I want my HR team to update that file, but one user shouldnt see the entries of other users. I want to make a consolidated file out of three files. This excel template is for salary input.
I have a user form that has a combo box "City" two text boxes one called "Flight" and the other "Date". What I'm trying to do is to prevent the user from saving the data input from the user form if any of those three fields is left blank. The code that I have so far checks all of the required fields, if any are left blank a message notifys which field(s) is left blank and return the focus back to that field. But the rest of code also fires.
What I really need is either to stop the code if any fields are blank and return the focus back to the blank field, the user completes the field(s) and clicks the save again, or better yet, pause the code until all the required fields are completed and then complete the save. (There is actually another 200+ lines of code in this sub, but I deleted it to keep the post a little shorter.)
I am trying to check a user input to see if the user has entered the date correctly. I am using the code below but it keeps giving me a "Type Mismatch" error.
An Excel file named CLEARING is availble in thr central server system. it will be accessed by 5 or 6 staffs from some other systems what i need is when one person accesses/edits this file the others should not even able to open in the read only file ,when the file is saved and closed ,then only the next person should access it
I have a workbook that is used to track overtime hours worked through the year. I've received some help from users on this forum, and others, to create the necessary macros and formulas to allow a supervisor to make use of the form; however, the workbook is also used to track those that wish to volunteer to work overtime each weekend. The sheet has a list of names for the employees on each shift, then a column to allow a "Y" to be placed under the date - designating them as a volunteer for any overtime available. I've found this spreadsheet (attached - from this site) that will allow individual users to access the workbook and have unique passwords for each. I don't completely understand how it works, but I feel it may be a start to getting what I want.
Essentially, once the user selects their name and inputs their password, I'd like the workbook to be opened and then allow them to only manipulate the row associated with their name. That row will change from week to week, so specific numbers will not be able to be used, but their name will be the same as the name used in the logon.
I feel like I'm asking for a lot here, so just some initial guidance on whether this type of thing is possible would be an acceptable answer.
I'm trying to make a spreadsheet that references data tables I have pulled from the internet, with the hopes that these tables will update as I refresh the data connections. I'm in the early stages of creating this spreadsheet right now, but whenever I try to refresh my data connections, it takes a tremendous amount of time. I have about 6 connections with 100 row lines total. Is this typical with data connections to the web? Is there a better way to do this?
i have to take the PGN chess game notation file into excel.it is a text file from notepad. it is like this as shown hereunder. how can i get this into columns movewise. ex.1.d4 Nf6 should come in A1 and 2.c4 d6 should come in A2.
I am creating a tool that many people will be using. I need a way to do the following from vba:
1. Click on the "From Web" button under Get External Data section in Data and show the web query pop-up
2. Input the url into the field and press enter
At this point, it will be the user's responsibility to log in w/ their username and password. I have tried to record a macro w/ no success. I just need to get the query open for the user without them having to do anything.
I have some data in tabular form on a sheet. I want to represent this data on a different sheet, but have it be dynamically updated. I'm thinking that the smartest way would be to give the original data a named range, then do some sort of external data referencing to the source from Data - Import External Data. But this sounds kind of silly.
How do I do this? And no, I don't want to use pivot tables because I don't have statistics to populate in the cells...I just want to display the data as is.
I'm wondering if it is a all possible to have a VBA macro call another program (like a Perl scripts, or a Python script) from within VBA?
I have no idea if this is possible. I know that people often write programs which call other programs, but would have no idea where to get started on this.
If it IS possible, can you tell me if it is is extremely complicated?
I have to have a VBA script read some complicated text files, and parse and extract information from them. Perl is so great at this, and I seem to get a headache trying to do any pattern searching and matching with VBA. If it was instead possible to write a Perl script, which is then run by VBA, that would make my life so much easier... :-)
I update files monthly and save them each month with a new name (eg. Jan, Feb, etc.).
In the file I have a reference from one tab to another tab within the same file. So every time I re-save this file with a new name, it should still reference the cell in the other tab - same file.
BUT on 2 occasions this reference changed to an "external" reference to the previous month's file.
I've been doing this every month for over 2 years and this problem has only happened 2 times. I know others that have experienced this, but nobody knows what caused it.
Does anyone know what would cause this? The biggest problem is that I may not notice this has happened for a long time.
One other thing I might add. I use an older version of Excel (2000). I share these files with other people who may have newer versions (I'm not sure who has what). Can sharing these files with others over a network system have something to do with this? Can opening "read only" when someone else is in the file and then saving as a copy do this?
I have 5 or 6 macros set up to import stats from the internet to specific sheets. I want all of my imported data to be pasted starting at A1. However when i run these macros, the data IS pasted at A1, but when i run it a second time (or the next day after the pages have been updated), it pastes the data BESIDE the previously pasted stuff. here's what i mean..
say my imported data spans columns A to S.. everything's fine. but tomorrow i want to update the data so i run the macro again. well, it pastes the new data to A1 and again it spans from A to S like it's supposed to, but now it also tacks on the same paste job from S to, AG for instance.here's the code... There are currently 5 macros that have this problem. I thought by selecting A1 as the starting point, i could alleviate all of this but apparently not.
Do any of you know if it's possible to send a scroll up / down to another app, perhaps in some fashion similar to send keys? I'm essentially pulling data from a proprietary UI into a spreadsheet where I can manipulate the data...the problem is that some of the pages have a table on the bottom half of the page with a vertical scrollbar - and I can't seem to get to the lines which are out of view.
I have file name "WM" from where I want to run macro and want that It open a File let say "test" & do the rest of the functions. like if I have following code how can it possible.
"TML" sheet is on file "WM" and "MD" sheet is on file "test".
Code:
Sub Copy_on_backup_file() Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:UsersBinDesktop est.xls" '*** Select the destination cell With Sheets("TML") LR = .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row Range(.Cells(3, 1), .Cells(LR, 3)).Copy Sheets("MD").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1) End With
There are 100 loans, each one of them need to be tested on 11 different tests, the results are either "pass" or "fail". All the test results are stored in the Boolean array. g_sel_tag(). For instance, if g_sel_tag(2,7) = true that means the 2nd loan has failed on the 7th test.
But I got stock with the following code, I think there should be a loop for the public variable rep_num in order to loop through the 11 test results for each loan. I have searched the entire project but did not find any value was assigned to the variable rep_num. The following code is part of a huge project, I can't test run it to see if the following code is valid at this point.
I am new to VBA therefore wondering if it is valid with no specific value assigned to rep_num. (I think there should be something like "for rep_num = 1 to 11" in order to get it running).
There are several codes in the project with similar structure where they just use rep_num without assigning any specific values.
Code: Dim rep_num As Interger Sub test_results_reporter (rep_num As Interger) Dim i As Interger Dim g_sel_tag(1 to 100, 1 to 11) as Boolean For i = 1 to 100 If g_sel_tag(i,rep_num) Then Msgbox "Loan" & i & "has failed on test" & rep_num Next End sub
I am working on a spreadsheet that hits an external site. My questions is, I need to hit the site about 80 times becuase I search for different info. It there a way to get the vba to go down a list 80 of names rather than me entering the vba code 80 times with the different names?
On the first worksheet of my workbook I have a list of file names in cells I11:I27. The filenames have been 'compiled' using the concatenate function, so for example, although cell I11 displays:
Richard 2007-09.xls,
the cell contents are really:
=CONCATENATE(G20," ",L9,"-",J9,".xls")
Using VBA, I want to be able to open each respective file in cells I11:I27, copy the contents into this workbook (sheet=raw), and close it. My problem is that I don't know how to tell excel the filename in VBA, because the cells contents are not really the filename - they are a formula.
I'm trying to pull in data from another Excel workbook which gets updated on a regular basis. Using the Import External Data fucntion in Excel I created a query which pulls the data from the original workbook into a tab in the workbook I'm using. The issue I'm having is that not all of the column headers get pulled in when using the Import External Data function. I tried typing the column headers in myself but they disappear again after refreshing the data set. Any ideas what is causing the issue?
I want to select that list or part of it then run a VB module that references each item in the selection and compares it to a master list in a separate workbook that contains both the object and an additional value, and display that additional value in column B of the original workbook against each object in column A
I use external data queries in excel. That's how I look up data in my access databases because I have so many access and SQL databases it's just eiser to be able to do quick queries on multiple databases at the same time in one spreadsheet. And, I can save the external data query as a tool to use in future queries. I have tons of tools and external data query is the foundation of most of them.
What bugs me is EDITING data.
If I want to do some light simple editing in an SQL database I am required to use a linked table in Access or SQL Studio Express Manager. Great programs, but I want to integrate!
Is there no way to make excel a database editor? I can retrieve data from any database or program with excel just fine, but is there a way to use excel to DIRECTLY EDIT the data in an external database with EXCEL like I can in access linked tables?
I am trying to import the data on the url below. When I go to the external data inport the page is loaded and I click the indicator to load the central table but when the data loads the page is severally corrupted. I have found this on a few pages but some pages load correctly.
