I am trying to write a macro to find a file in a specific folder. The file name changes weekly. (Ex. C:My Folder31207.xls). I need to find the most recently modified version of the file and open it.
I am trying to open a website, then for excel to download the csv file, then for it to save it in a specific folder under a specific name and file format (excel).
I am successful at opening the website with the following code, but how to do the rest.
Sub Searchez() Dim IE As Object Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") IE.Navigate "http://quote.morningstar.ca/Quicktakes/stock/keyratios.aspx?t=clwr®ion=USA&culture=en-CA&ops=clear" 'load web page google.com IE.Visible = True While IE.Busy DoEvents Wend
'IE.Navigate2 "javascript:SRT_keystuts.exportcsv()" 'this is the name of the download link as from when i hover my pointer over download link. End Sub
I have a requirement to search workbooks in a particular folder with specific string in file name. For example, let us assume I need to find a file which contains the name 'RR' in it. The position of 'RR' will vary with files i.e. 'RR' might be present either in the beginning, middle or at the end of file name. All I wanted is to search for file with 'RR' and do some activity and close the file and then goto next file. Similarly, the next search has to be performed with the files containing the name 'BB' in it.
I've got a VBA macro set up in one Master excel file that manipulates a number of other files. Both the Master and the other files are all in a folder which is currently called C:Documents and SettingsusernameDesktopPipeline and my VBA script has this defined as the filepath and works exactly as I need it to. I will be moving the folder "Pipeline" to a shared drive on my server so my staff can access it, and will be sending it to colleagues who will be installing it on their own servers so they and their staff can use it. Is there a way to amend the code so that the VBA in the Master file looks in the folder in which it is locate, "Pipeline", no matter what the filepath leading to the "Pipeline" folder is?
I'm using this code below sucessfully to open a specific folder view window. What i'm looking for is a way to amend it slightly so that when the window opens the 'folder tree' on the left hand side does not show, as it always does at the moment.
I am using the code below to Open the most recent file in a folder.But once it Identifies the most recent file I get a run time error"1004"
xxxxxxxxxxxxx(name of File) could't be found.At line "Wookbooks.Open strFilename".My question is , why can't it open it, it has the location and the file name?
This code works as long as the macro and target file are in the same directory(Folder)
I am using excel 2007 and I’m trying to open a file folder from a worksheet using a control button. They are both in same file folder. I’ve have tried Workbooks.Open Filename:=ThisWorkbook.Path & "Report"
I also tried to record a macro but would not record going to file 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.
Anyone up for getting me started on code to open a file in a "dynamic" directory, specifically:
Where
Main directory is G:REPORTS The file name is "Pivot_xx-xx-xx.xls" The directory where the file is located is G:REPORTSxx-xx-xx xx-xx-xx is yesterday's date
I would like to run a macro that is going to open a file (Test.xls) Simple so far.... However, this file is 1. stored every month in a different folder (eg: 200709,200710, etc..) and the file is named according to the month (eg: Test09.xls, Test10.xls, etc...) In my excel book, I did created two cells which I already use to save a document according to those cells. One cell with Acct Period (200710) and another one with the month (10). I have tried the following formula with no success:
I am trying to open a folder so I may choose the workbook to open. I am able to open a workbook but I want to open the folder which contains the workbook.
I am trying to have a worksheet linked to another workbook, but this workbook name will change. It will always start with Blockbuster - Valuation but the rest of the file name is the date and the version of the workbook. Do you know how VBA can go in a folder and look for the entire file name of a workbook starting with Blockbuster - Valuation.
I have a folder called "Report" at C: and inside this folder there are 12 folder named from 1 to 12 ("1","2",...,"12")
I need a macro to save my workbook as a file in C:Report(one of these folders depending on the month of a certain cell)
i.e. if the date in this cell is 8/12/2012 .. then save my file in C:Report12*.xlsm
This is the code i use
Code: Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim fname As String fname = Format$(Range("S8"), "dd-mm-yyyy") On Error Resume Next ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:Reort" & fname & ".xlsm" End Sub
So what i need now is what to insert after C:Report
I have a macro which saves file to a specific folder. Problem is I can save the file only in my local drive C: but not on a server for some reason. Here is the At home in my home computer this code worked when C: was selected.
ChDir ("c:") Title = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(Name, "Excel files (*.xls), *.xls") ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Name Save the file in specific place
But when I substituted C: path with my server path it doesnt work! Have a look. Its the exact same code except my path is different.
ChDir ("\Lnf001Lnf1vol1SharedOP_ENGWork Order") Title = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(Name, "Excel files (*.xls), *.xls") ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Name
I have an Excel workbook with 2 worksheets in it. One of the worksheets imports a txt file and then the other worksheet displays data that formulas I have written have collected.
I usually import the txt file by running through the many steps with the "import data" option. This is good but I want it to be faster.
I used the macro recorder and ended up with the following code
I have an Excel Worksheet (let's call it "AA.xlsm") which uses VBA code to loop through column A, update column B with some results/values, and then (for each value in column A) SaveAs the worksheet into a different filename/path as a ".csv" type file.
My line of code for the SaveAs is as follows: Workbooks("AA.xlsm").SaveAs LEpath & CurrFldr, FileFormat:=xlCSV
My problem is that my original worksheet, AA.xlsm, gets closed whereas I need it to stay open/active after each SaveAs iteration.
I have the attached xl. I want to make import from a specific folder other xl files and after that I want the sheet 1 to find if the values in column g and m (together in the same time) can find it in other xl files. If yes then this values in sheet 1 must turn to red. Can this done?
I recorded a macro to save a workbook to a specific folder using the current file name. However, I've tried to remove the absolute reference to a specific filename but it is not working for me. Am I close?
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _ "H:Files and DocumentsPROJECTSSR 2 SS Phase Two Component ReliabilityWinTrac Files xt_conversionsexcel_version" & SheetName _ , FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook, CreateBackup:=False
I have a variable list. Each column will be 250 digits and numbers of rows will be variable. I want a macro to import a text file from a specific folder into a sheet without split it to columns. So we will work only in column A
Then macro will find B1002 wording in A1. if it is exist, it will copy the next 36 digits after B1002 wording if not then it will search A2 row. The next step will be to search and find another wording "B1001" if it finds it will replace copied 36 digits text. If it can not find B1001 wording it will go to upper row and search B1001 wording here and paste the text. This will go on till row shows #END. This means it reached the end of the list. And then macro will save this file as text file to another folder.
So macro will go to beginning to open other file in the folder and this will go on till last file in the folder.
This is the logic of the macro. Here is the sample of what I want.
I am doing a project for work at the moment where by I have to manipulate a report compiled by an external program and do various bits and bobs to it. Trouble is, the other program creates a new version every time it runs the report (i.e filename.1.xls, and the next day filename.2.xls, and so on). Is there any way of searching the folder these files are in to find the newest file and select that one as the one to open and manipulate? There will be no files other than these in the folder.
I am naming raw data files by the date of the data in the file. In another file I am using sumif and sumifs formulas to consolidate the data and organizing it by date, later to copy and paste special to keep the cleaned orgaized data in one spreadsheet. I would like to be able to reference a date and have excel open the appropriate file (named by the date) and then execute the sumif and sumifs formulas. If this is possible I can have the spreadsheet pull in all sorts of historical data all at once and I won't have to worry about copy paste special.
