I have tried to use the "FileSystemObject", but i just dont understand the concept around it.
The reference to use it as been selected.
In time, this directory maybe huge, so i want a fast macro to find out the name of the last created file.
I want to display a control to the user so they can select a folder. I'm assuming that the proper control would be the FileSystemObject.
If that assumption is correct, I would think the first part of the code would be something like:
Dim fso As Scripting.FileSystemObject
Set fso = New Scripting.FileSystemObject
Folder File List VBA Code Error
which is something that I am wanting to use in my spreadsheet.
When using this, i get a compile error on:
FSO As Scripting.FileSystemObject
The code I am using is the following:...
I have an issue with saving the file at the desired location below is the code i have currently used . I have given the destination as "D:New folder". The new file does get saved at location "D:" but not inside the "D:New folder", instead names the file as "New folder".

I have a folder called 'Refresh'. Every week a new file is dropped into that folder. Instead of me placing that new file into my workbook, i would like my macro to just grab it. Is there a way for VB to grab the most recently created file that comes into my 'Refresh' Folder.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am creating 4 Sheets from a Main Sheet by Filtering Data based on different values in a fixed column, then the Filtered Rows are automatically pasted in the respective sheets.
Then these 4 Sheets are creating another file.
The same thing done manually by Grouping the 4 SHeets and then Move Copy into a New workbook also makes the file heavier.
Everything works fine however though the data is not much the file is very heavy, so what do i do to make it of appropriate size ?
i have a Macro, its creating unwanted inverted commas at the start and end of the File.

The .txt file I use is very large about 100 mb to 1GB. I need to find a way to write vba code that asks for input text file and the validates it and gives the message that following special characters are present in the file. Also, it gives their column number and row no's, where they are located.
The characters which needs not treated as special characters are numbers (0-9), alpha (A-Z) and special characters (@,-,%,$,+,=).

How will a macro go finding this atribute of this particular file and place this atribute as value as described?
The filepath of it is valued in celle A1
I have a very big Excel file (62 MB). I need to be able to filter by one column (FACILITY) and sort the whole file using the (REGISTRATION NO) column as well as finding the missing sequence number in the (REGISTRATION NO) column. The problem is that the (FACILITY) column has more than 200 different facility name. I am thinking of macro as I have different Spreadsheet I need to do the same steps in each one separately.
I have attached a copy (example from the data that I have) .
I have been trying to write two formulas in one cell. I have been able to write them both separately but have been unable to join them both together. What I am trying to do if first search name them how many reoccurring numbers appear. I have provided an example below
a b c d
1 Tom 333
2 Sam 22
3 Sam 22
4 John 5
5 Sam 22
6 Sam 1
7 Tom 3
8 Tom 333
So the answer would be
Tom = 2
Sam = 2
John = 1

I have created a pop up calendar using VBA with the help of VBA Tips at www.fontstuff.com/vba and it works very well. However it has the default date of 12 March, In the tutorial that i used there was some code to use todays date if the cell (in which i was going to put a date) is empty. Which is as follows
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
If IsDate(ActiveCell.Value) Then
Calendar1.Value = DateValue(ActiveCell.Value)
Else
Calendar1.Value = Date
End If
End Sub
yet when the calendar does pop up, the date remains at 12 March (the calendar in the visual basic editor reflects the date correctly). I've tried to change numerous amounts of properties, without success
When you use a basic function like SUM, you see SUM(number1,[number2],...). The "number1,[number2],..." using the function.
Now when using a function you create (e.g. below)
VB:
Function euro(dolar) As Double
euro = dolar * 1.2
End Function
When I type =euro in a cell in excell, i dont get the indication euro(dollar).
Is it possible to activate this option in a way or another?
I've created a macro which copies the current tab to a new workbook (Book X):
[Code]....
I then manipulate the copied data in Book X. Once this is done I move the manipulated sheet back into original file
[Code] .......
The problem i'm having is I'd like to close the newly created Workbook X file once the macro has run but Workbook X is usually called Book2, Book4, Book7, Book32 etc.
Workbook X will always be the previous file if i use the ALT TAB shortcut.
I am trying to create a function in VBA that will return a range, but I don't want the range to point to cells on a spreadsheet. I want the range to return a vba created range. Is this possible or impossible? Is a variable of type range required to point to cells on a spreadsheet?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to enter a formula into cells on a spreadsheet through a macro.
I want the formula to read:
=if(isblank(G1),"",month(G1))
but because this is being created within a macro it doesn't like the double quotations.
I can get it to display "0" but i want those cells to be NULL. Right now my only idea is to make an IF statement in the code that doesn't insert a formula in those instances, but I'd like to keep them all as formulas for later changes. Anyway around this dilemma?
Example Code (only a piece):
Code:
With Range("F1")
.Value = "=if(isblank(G1),,month(G1))"
.AutoFill Destination:=Range("F1:F" & lastrow)
End With
I'm working on a Tool, where every change should be saved in a new Version. So if the user changes any number, he should click my selfcreated save-button, which takes todays date in the filename (no problem so far).
I tried to disable the "normal" save-button with:
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
MsgBox ("saving cancelled!")
End Sub
Unfortunately this code won't allow my own button to save too. Is there any other way? Maybe sth like if "normal" saving is used, then automatically activate a makro (which is also on my button) instead of just saving?
