Find File By Date. Copy & Paste
Dec 9, 2006
I work for a chicken hatchery. So, a couple preliminary things by way of explanation:
1. The day we place our eggs in the incubators, we fill in an excel file containing a list of all the farms from which those eggs came. This is called the "Egg List" workbook.
2. After 21 days have passed, and the eggs have turned into chicks, we open that original file. We copy cells from one column of that file (the workbook is called the “Egg List”, we copy “Sheet1” cells B7:B50), and paste them into another Workbook called “Chick List.”
My question is this:
Is there a macro I can put into the “Chick List” workbook that will automatically locate that particular “Egg list” workbook file that is 21 days old, and paste the contents of its cells B7:B50 into cells A7:A50 in my “Chick List” Workbook. It is preferable if this can be done without opening the old “Egg list” file. But if this is not possible, I’ll take whatever I can get.
Here is what I have, which works okay as far as finding the file. I bootlegged this from another part of this helpful website. But I cannot figure out the syntax for getting cells B7:B50 from the Egg list to copy into cells A7:A50 of the Chick List.
Dim FSO As Object
Sub ProcessFiles()
Dim i As Long
Dim sFolder As String
Dim fldr As Object
Dim Folder As Object
Dim file As Object
Dim Files As Object
Dim this As Workbook
Dim cnt As Long
Dim filenew As Object

I've attached a workbook which contains two sheets:
PAYM
DEVICE_PAYM
Data is updated on DEVICE_PAYM each day with the figures I need located in column "AN". I need to be able to copy the data from "AN" and paste it into a column on the PAYM sheet. The destination column on the PAYM sheet needs to be specified by inputting a specific date - ideally, I would like to use the calendar Add-In as part of this process. I've already input some code for the calendar but am unable to develop this further so that it finds the correct date column and pastes the data across from the other sheet.

I already have code that I believe is supposed to do what I'm trying to accomplish. However, it doesn't fully work. The Macro is below:
VB:
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:Documents and Settingsplp138DesktopExample 1.xls"
On Error Resume Next
With Workbooks("Example 2.xls")[code]....
Basically, what I'm trying to accomplish is to have a certain range from one file copied, and pasted in the next available (empty) row of another file. While debugging I see that everything is working except for the actual pasting.

What I'm trying too do is open a file, make an exact copy and save it under a new file name.
My problem is in the date formula the day is not always the same. In the sample case it's 03 at other times the day will change.
is there a way too get this too work irregardles of what the day might be?

The following is a sample spread sheet similar to ones I use daily.
I am trying to create a macro that will help me do the following.
Look for the same account # shown in Column A to Column F. If the account # matches, copy the total Value in Column H to the correct account in Column C.
The problem here is that In column A, i've placed some headings so i'm not too sure if that'll cause a problem.

I am trying copy and paste data from an external file. The steps I am using to get data are as follows:
1. open external file
2. copy desired data from external file (any number of rows & columns)
3. close the external file
4. paste data starting with designated cell.
The code works fine up until the part of the code where I want to paste special (I need to preserve cell formatting). Error is "PasteSpecial method of Range class failed". No sure why code doesn't work at this point.

I have a value in sheet3 cell "C9". (the value is stewart)
I am tring to have the macro go down column "C" in sheet1 and the value is the same as "C9"s value in sheet3 then copy the 7 cells to the right and paste them in the 7 cells right of "C9" in sheet3.
Example: If the value in cell "C9" in sheet3 = "stewart" and the value in "C109" in sheet1 is "stewart" the copy C110:C116 in sheet1 and paste those values in C10:C16 in sheet3.
I guess you wouldn't have to offset, you could copy C109:C116 and paste it to C9:C16 since its the same value.

I have two spreadsheets, A & B. In spreadsheet A, user will input a contract number and values for the contract. The user inputs the contract number in cell D4. I have linked this cell to cell B1 of spreadsheet B.
I want Excel to
-copy values from spreadsheet A
-then go to spreadsheet B and find the value of B1(which is the contract number entered in cell D4 of spreadsheet A)
- arrow over 14 columns
- then paste
here's the code i have so far. No matter what contract I input in cell D4 of spreadsheet A (when i step through the code) excel always takes me to cell C10 of spreadsheet B!?!?!
note: the code is in a module in spreadsheet A

Im trying to get some VBA to search in my worksheet to find a match to the value of cell B5 (the value of B5 changes depending on user choice), then once a match is found I want to highlight from the matched cell to the right 5 columns and down to row 193 (so in total 6 columns would be highlighted down to row 193), then copy and paste special values over those cells.

I need a Macro that will search the range A6:A19 for a match to A3. Once a match is found I want contents of B3:F3 pasted in the corresponding row that the match was found in. In this example contents of B3:F3 would be pasted in B13:F13

I basically need to copy/move the text in column E, from vertical to horizontal using VBA when column C is the same. Then delete the extra lines. eg. C1:C3 = 1, so all the text from E1:E3 needs to goto E1:G1, then Rows 2&3 can be deleted as they are no longer needed. (Note: there are not always 3 instances, this can vary from 3-10). Its a bit hard to explain so i have included the Sample-finished.xls file as this is how it needs to look once its complete.

The macro finds the value in cell D11 (which is the name of a product) in a worksheet called "Summary1". It then looks for this value in another worksheet called "Output", specifically in a column with a named range called "Products". If the value being searched is found in the "Products" named range column (in the worksheet "Output"), the code below copies the entire row for it, to another sheet called "OutputSummary1". I would like to change the code as follows:
1) Instead of copying the entire row, for which the searched for value is found, from the sheet "Output" to the sheet "SummaryOutput1", I would like to instead only copy the values in columns A, B, and E to the sheet "OutputSummary1". Also, I would like the values to be pasted pastespecial so that the formulas in the sheet "Output" are not copied over, and only the values are copied.
2) Secondly, I would like to know how to perform the find procedure (searching for cell D11 contents) on all sheets in the same workbook beginning with the word "Summary" (There will be worksheets called Summary1, Summary2, Summary3, etc. that the macro should be performed on.) As well, the pasting should be perfomed on all respective sheets called OutputSummary1, OutputSummary2, OutputSummary3, etc.
Sub CopyPaste()
With Worksheets(1).Range("Products")
Set c = .Find(Worksheets("Summary1").Range("D11").Value, LookIn:=xlValues) 'this identifies the value D11 in worksheet called Summary1
If Not c Is Nothing Then
firstAddress = c.Address
Do
c.EntireRow.Copy Destination:=Worksheets("OutputSummary1").Range("a" & Worksheets("OutputSummary1").Range("a65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1)
Set c = .FindNext(c)
Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address <> firstAddress
End If
End With
End Sub

Here is some sample code I found on the internet similar to mine:
Windows("Waterfall 1.xls").Activate
Cells. Find(What:="accounts", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False _
, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
Windows("test Schedule.xls").Activate
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Range("A1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Range("A1:G1").Select
Selection.Copy
Windows("Waterfall 1.xls").Activate
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Range("A1:G1").Select
ActiveSheet.paste
Windows("test Schedule.xls").Activate
ActiveCell.Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "4"
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Range("A1").Selectp.
I now understand that there's a way to remove the activate statements, while still selecting that document to work with, and therefore greatly increasing the speed.

Feedback.xls is the file I want to have my macro run in. By pushing a button to run the macro, it will prompt the user to select where their file is on their computer. This file will have different file names based on the end user. For example sake, I've included CAP.xls.
After the user selects their file, it will prompt them to choose which tab to copy and paste data from. Typically, there will be 30+ tabs on their worksheet. For example sake, I've created 5 tabs on CAP.xls. The tabs in their workbook will be labeled as I have labeled mine, M1 CAP, M2 CAP & M3 CAP. Therefore, it should prompt the user to select which tab to choose from.
After the user selects their tab (M1 CAP, M2 CAP, M3 CAP), the macro should prompt the user to choose which row of information to copy. In CAP.xls, I have a few rows of information to choose from. They all start with FY10A1, FY10A2, FY10A3, but this information could change. Once they select the row, it will copy each of those fields onto the respectively labeled fields on Feedback.xls.

I have a report where I would like to have a macro search for a date string in columns N-S and copy the date to Column C, same row. The number of rows will vary from day to day. I would then like to format all of Column C to 'mm/dd/yyyy'.
Attached is a file where the date string is included in Column N on row 2 and Column O on the row 3. The dates for both these lines would need to be copied and pasted to their respective rows in Column C.

I am needing to find a specific row of data in one workbook and, once found, copy and paste the values into another workbook. The worksheets in both workbooks are formatted exactly the same. Only the first eight fields of the row need to be copied (e.g. A7:H7, A150:H150, etc.)
Will a combination of VLOOKUP and ROW do this and how do I get them to work together? Once the correct row is found, how are the fields selected, copied and pasted into the specific worksheet of the other workbook?

Thank you all so much for this wonderful forum. Today has been a day of going through post after post. I am usually able to solve my problems through reading similar issues. However, just can quite get this one and I think it is rather simple, but frustrating none the less.
Attached is a spreadsheet with a list names in column B. The codes I have tried to write or have copied find one name and paste it to sheet 1. However, I need to find several names and then copy each row to sheet 1.

I need to firstly find data in the main sheet which relates to the activecell and then I want to copy and paste that data into another worksheet.
The simplest of ways I guess would be the .xldown function however this seems to copy the blank cells as well as the cells with data, which is no good. I have therefore written code as below which finds the first cell with data, copies and pastes, then loops.
How do I set the loop to look at the next cell down from the initial copied cell and if there is data in it to paste it into the cell underneath the one I have just pasted into?
Range("D3") = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1)
SheetName = Range("D3")
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Select
[Code]....

I am trying to achieve something like this :
Find a specific text in my column B (example : "Proposal ID"), when "Proposal ID" is found, select this cell and offset to the column C (Offset(0, 1)). Then copy this cell value in another sheet.
This will be repeated with different texts (always in the column B), so if the text is not found, I need the macro to continue running.

I want to find data from a certain point and paste this to a cell. My objective is to get all the data on too one row. This row is always 1 in col M called Run#. The find locations never change, just the data being copied always changes . Heres example,
In col K find FHBASC and look across to the right 3 cells in col N and copy.
Look in col M and find 1, paste above copied data into col GI.
Then move down rows to next FHBASC and repeat process until end of sheet.
If I can get a very basic simple macro to do this, then hopefully I can just re write to suit my other data.

There are two problems to solve :
My Excel workbook is composed of 2 sheets. The first one is a Dashboard (Sheet1) and the second one (Sheet13) is where the data is.
I would like to press a button on the first one, enter the text to be found into an Inputbox and then copy-paste cells from the second sheet (containing the data) into the first one.
The data is structured in rows, from A to V columns.
I would like, according the row where is located the found cell, copy given given cells from Sheet13 to Sheet1.
Right now, I have a macro performing the search like desired and selecting the found cell :
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim FindString As String
Dim Rng As Range
FindString = InputBox("Entrer le contrat de support - rechercher (DSI....) ")
If Trim(FindString) "" Then
With Sheet13.Range("V:V")
Set Rng = .Find(What:="*" & FindString & "*", _
[Code] .......
I would like to copy cells located in the columns A, B, D, E, F, K, S, (T:U) from the row where the searched string has been found in Sheet13. It has to be copied on Sheet1, on two rows : (N29:Q29) & (N30:Q30).
When a new research is done, the previously copied cells should be cleared out.
2. The second point is about duplicating a button with an associated macro. The macro is running like I want but I have to insert 299 more buttons, with the updated formula according to the row where it is located.
However, one part of the macro has to stay the same because all of these 300 buttons increment a single counter located on Sheet1.
Code:
Sub Button2600_Click() If MsgBox("Etes-vous sûr de vouloir ajouter 1 année de support pour" & vbNewLine & Range("E7") & " " & "(" & Range("F7") & ")" & " ?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion, "Modification du Contrat de Support") = vbYes Then
Sheet13.[A7] = DateAdd("yyyy", 1, [A7])
MsgBox "Contrat étendu d'une année."
Dim x As Integer
x = Sheet1.[R11].Value
Sheet1.[R11].Value = x + 1
End If
End Sub

I have 10 worksheets. They are labelled 'FEB', 'MAR', 'APR', etc...to 'NOV' (NB: JAN & DEC not needed). In column "G" on all these sheets I have the data as "CURRENT" or "OVERDUE". The first 3 rows on every sheet are headers, so the data starts at 'G4' on every sheet.
I then have an "OUTSTANDING" sheet which will display all of the "OVERDUE" items from the various months. I have an UPDATE_Click() event which when actioned needs to search all the column Gs in the month sheets and then copy the data from column 'B' to 'F' of the corressponding row to an "OVERDUE" result. The data from B-F then needs to be pasted in the next available row on the "OUTSTANDING" worksheet (starting at row 4, as first 3 rows are headers with merged and unmerged cells).
Nothing fancy, when the search go does the column and hits a blank cell that means its the end of the list and can move on to the next month.
