Filesearch ‘object Doesn’t Support This Action’ Error
Nov 29, 2006
Not sure if I am having a brain fade or not but the following code gives an ‘Object doesn’t support this action’ error (at the ‘with..’ line) and I can’t figure out why.
Sub test()
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.LookIn = "D:"
.FileType = "*.*"
I was using the following macro on Excel 2000, 2002 & 2003 for many years without a fuss. Recently, I upgraded to Excel 2007. When I run the macro now, I get the following error message:- Run-time error 445 Object doesn't support this action.
Sub test() With Application.FileSearch .NewSearch .LookIn = "C:Documents and SettingsDesktopCommercial Database" .SearchSubFolders = True .Filename = "*.*" .TextOrProperty = "BANK" .MatchAllWordForms = True .FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles If .Execute() > 0 Then MsgBox "There were " & .FoundFiles.Count & _ " file(s) found." End If End With End Sub
Additional info:- The 1st line of my code which is With Application.FileSearch is highlighted in yellow when I run this macro.
While clicking a button in the excel, am getting a run-time error. Everybody's need is urgent even I understand boss. Anybody else who is in the same shoes as mine. Here goes the solution:
When I execute this, I got error run-time error 445, object does not support this action. I am using window vista, microsoft office 2007. How can i change the code to make it workable?
When I run my code (which opens Excel from Access) it does everything it is supposed to but I then get the above error but I do not get the error if I open the VBA window and then run the code. (The code is password protected, not sure if this is relevenat though).
The macro below is stored within worksheet "Data Lookup". When the value in B1 changes, the code is executed but fails when it comes to the paste function. I get a "Object doesn't support this property or method".
Also, it appears the copying is not occuring correctly. It is supposed to copy from the Data3 worksheet but, in fact, its copying from the Data Lookup worksheet. Does storing this macro within a worksheet prevent the macro from moving between sheets?
Sub Worksheet_Calculate() If Range("B1").Value = Range("N1").Value Then End Sheets("Data3").Select Cells(13, 6).Copy Sheets("Data Lookup").Select Cells(23, 11).Paste End Sub
I'm getting a really weird error in that I can't reproduce it. It sometimes occurs when I open the document and sometimes not. HEre is the Private Sub Workbook_Open() Dim dic, Dn As Range, rng As Range
Set rng = Sheets("Moisture").Range("B2:B1000")
Set dic = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary") With dic For Each Dn In rng If Not .exists(Dn.Value) Then .Add Dn.Value, ""
End If Next Dn Set wksPayment = Sheet10 wksPayment.ListBox2.List = .keys End With End Sub
The line that hangs up is the wksPayment.Listbox2.List = .keys line. Any ideas or ways to test or further figure out what is causing the problem?
I'm trying to write some code to make an existing chart display the correct series of data. However, on the ".SeriesCollection..." lines, it gives me the error "Object does not support this property or method." I'm using a Bar-Line graph, if it makes any difference.
I need to be able to open a filenamed in the following format.
c:/workbook20060112.txt.
However the lsat part of the string is dyanmic and works with one business days lag (hence format sheet (date, "yyyymmdd") ) is not approriate. i also have the problem that that MS Excel does not have a holiday calendar (so this would not work over bank holidays/easte/exmas ect). The folder also contains archived files as below.
I have been told about a filesearch object as well as a filesystem object. What situations would you use one over the other?
What I want it the most upto data file to pick up, but I dont want to do a loop where it look through all the files or something that counts down from today until it 'hits' the correct file.
I have a macro that searches through a certain location for Excel files. The program and files were made in Office 2003. When another user runs the macro in Office 2007, the files are not recognized or the macro does not search, I'm not sure. Either way, the files are never located in their folder location. Any thoughts or ways around this?? The top part of the code is posted below,
Do With Application.FileSearch .NewSearch 'Change path to suit .LookIn = "C:Documents" .FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks '.Filename = " Book*.xls"
If .Execute > 0 Then 'Workbooks in folder For lCount = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count ' Loop through all. 'Open Workbook x and Set a Workbook variable to it Set wbResults = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=.FoundFiles(lCount), UpdateLinks:=0)
OK, so I have a userform with some text boxes that I have specially formatted to accept only date values in the form of mm/dd/yy. By default they are blank. I have a check in one of my codes that looks like this
Code: If DateBox vbNullString And DateValue(DateBox) > checkdate Then M1 = "NEOPRENE" & Chr(13) Else M1 = "" & Chr(13) End If
Where DateBox is this specially formatted TextBox and checkdate is a future date being checked against.So if DateBox has a value in it AND that value is greater than the date being checked against the returend string is Neoprene, otherwise it is blank.
Well the problem I have is when the first condition returns FALSE, i.e. when DateBox is empty, the DateValue half still gets evaluated and returns a type missmatch error or something like that because DateValue("") returns an error. I have line of code 8 times, one for Neoprene, squeegee, etc. So the name of the text boxes are each unique and I am using M1, M2, M3, etc.
For other reasons, use of "On Error Resume Next" doesn't work for this situation because it causes a result opposite to what I want to happen.
whether I can handle errors in a way that tells me which object caused the error?
For example if a userform has two combobox's and one causes an error, can I return to a message box containing the name of the object (combobox1 or combobox2)?
I have tried returning err.source but I am either not using it correctly or it isn't intended to be used this way.
I am having difficulty getting a form to work the way that I would like it to work. I have a form that is used to display questions that my students will be answering. The form also is used to put the answers into a worksheet. I have 2 sheets. Sheet2 has the questions, student answers, and correct answers. Sheet1 is used to indicate correct answers and to keep track of percentage correct. I am fairly new to VB. I have 2 pieces of code that I am going to post. The first one works and the second one doesn't.
This is in the "This Workbook" section and it works. Option Explicit Public intNoQ As Integer Public strNoQ As String Public NumberofQuestions As Integer Dim StudentName As String Dim InputBoxAnswer As String Public Sub Workbook_Open() Application.Visible = False 'Hide Excel Load Questions Load NumberCorrect NumberofQuestions = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("K3").Value For intNoQ = 1 To NumberofQuestions strNoQ = VBA.CStr(intNoQ) If intNoQ = 1 Then Questions.Controls("QuestionNumberBox").Value = "Question#" & strNoQ Questions.Controls("QuestionBox").Value = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("B1").Value End If Questions.Controls("CorrectBox" & strNoQ).Visible = True Questions.Controls("CorrectLabel" & strNoQ).Visible = True Next intNoQ...............
I run a macro to change many features on an excel sheet. I'm trying to include a command that searches for an excel sheet and if not found to skip over that command and proceed to search for the next sheet. If the second sheet is included, then to proceed in running the following code for that specific page.
1) Search if sheet is included 2) if no to sheet exisiting, then proceed to search for next sheet. 3) if yes to sheet existing, then run the code below.
I want the users to store time only in some of the textboxes in a form so I have used control tip text for those textboxes. But i want to write vba code for displaying the error message if the users don't enter time in hh:mm:ss in those textboxes.
I have a relatively complex report that I work with and a worksheet is no longer required. I have deleted the worksheet and reference to it hwoever when running the macro to pull all the data, it gets to the summary of all the data and i get the Run Time Error 1004 Application-defined or object-defined error pop up. ON reviewing it, it is on this line ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Range("a1:a" & Range_Height).Select of the below code...
VB: Sub GetRangeName() Sheets("TOTAL").Select
[Code].....
use code tags around code. Posting code without them makes your code hard to read and difficult to be copied for testing. Highlight your code and click the # at the top of your post window.
I have a simple function below to put in different forumlas in different cells to get stock quotes. When I run this I get runtime error 1004 application-defined or object-defined error. The first formula goes through but vba chokes on the next formula: ActiveCell.Offset(I - 1, 4).Formula = username
For some reason my form won't open when the workbook is opened. I get an error message "run time error '424' object required" (which happens when I have Form1.show in the BOTH workbook_open event and the userform_initialize event (oops)). When I removed form1.show from the userform_initialize I don't get an error but I also get no form. I recall having this issue before but I can't recall how to fix it.
Can I call the userform_initialize event from the workbook open event to get around this successfully and properly?
I am trying to copy the info from one workbook to another workbook.
I keep getting the above referenced error...
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim filepath As String filepath = Range("A100") MsgBox ("File Appended") Workbooks.Open (filepath) Windows("CorrespondenceMaster.xls").Activate Sheets("Sheet2").Select Range("DesNo", "LocationPath").Select Selection.Copy Windows(filepath).Activate Range("A2").Select ActiveSheet.Paste End Sub
