Find File With Keyword In A Cell
Feb 13, 2007
I've had a look in the forums and can't seem to find this covered. Here's what I'm trying to do, I'd like to have a cell where you'd put a word in and then click a button that would search for those files under that keyword, then maybe list the files as hyperlinks or as buttons that you can select from. It's for a recipe manager type, so if you'd put in pasta, it would search the recipes folder for any files with the name "pasta" then put them on the screen so you could click one of them to read it.

I have a workbook with several sheets that have basically the same template but some have many more rows that others..
I am using the following code to hide columns based on cell value to "tidy it up" for printing.
Code:
Dim i As Long
For i = 170 To 2 Step -1
Cells(39, i).EntireColumn.Hidden = Cells(39, i).Value = "N"
Next i
I would like the VBA to determine what the row number is based on the row header e.g. "Prioritised Courses", rather than having to maintain the code each time new rows are added.
I would put it at the top or way down the bottom, but multiple (even less excel skilled) users will be using the "hide columns" functionality.

I have an Excel WorkBook with 100 WorkSheets.
Each Worksheet has a unique identifying label - "Requirement Number"
Within each worksheet is free form text data of the following categories:
Requirement: 10358
Title: Customer requirement 1
Text: This describes the requirements for a product for the customer[code].....
The text of the categories may begin in column A or B
What I need is a macro that will search each worksheet for a category, e.g., "Configuration:", copy the row where the keyword "Configuration" is found, and then have that row transposed and pasted to another WorkSheet (e.g., "Extracted Data") cell.
Data extracted from the next Worksheet would begin a new row in "Extracted Data"
Example:
Requirement1 Title Text Verification Method-Level ...
Requirement2 Title Text Verification Method-Level ...
Requirement3 Title Text Verification Method-Level ...
The Requirement# is best extracted from the WorkSheet tab since some of the worksheets are missing this information.
I can provide an example spreadsheet, however, I was not able to figure out how do that in this post.
I found a thread similar to this problem:
find and copy row
However, it only finds, copies and pastes for one keyword.

I have a list of drugs which possibly could increase to thousands in rows. I will need a macro that can scroll down to a particular row when the text in that row has been entered.
Assuming I have LOTEMP in A5000 , I would want a macro to scroll to row 5000 when the word , " LOTEMP" is typed in cell , say B2.

I need to conduct keyword searches in excel and color the keywords a different color without changing the font color of the entire cell. now, i found some code from another thread that does this, but i cant seem to get it to work with more than 2 keywords. i need fine-tuning the provided code to do what i need it to do.
[URL]
the VBA code i used was this:
[Code].....
I was playing around with the example, the Cat_Mouse.xlsm, and when i modified the 'myList' and 'myColor' arrays, it does not work.
Cat_Mouse.xlsm
For example, I modified the code to add the word bat:
[Code] .....
When i run the macros, the word "Bat" does not become colored red. interestingly enough, when i substitute the word "bat" for the word "hat" in the "myLIST array, the word "hat" does change to the red font.
I am looking to use this code to address keywords in my excel file by coloring all key words red and i have more than 10 key words.

I'm trying to extract the number of times specific keywords are used in Sheet1 and display that number on Sheet2.
For example:
Keywords to be used
ni = not interested
appt = appointment
na = not available
If ni is used 10 times, appt is uesd 2 times and na used 6 times.
I want to be able to see those numbers on Sheet2 next to the keywords.
e.g;
ni = 10
appt = 2
na = 6

Code / macro that would automatically search a word doc for keywords and export every instance of that keyword into column A of a spreadsheet, the first three or four words prior to that keywords into column B, and the entire sentence where the keywords is found into column C?
I often pull hundreds of pages of text from a program that exports into Word and have to look through the pages to find every instance where a point is referenced by geolocation. Then I have to filter through that data to determine which of the points I found are truly important before I save it all to a csv or xls and feed it into mapping software.
If I had a code / macro that did the search and export automatically, it would save hours of work.

I have a work sheet called 'Cross Ref data' which I want to put a keyword in column A (row 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 etc)
I then want to be able to run a macro that will grab the contents of A1 in WS called 'Cross Ref data' and check if it appears in column D and E in WS 'Results'
If there is a match then for the entire line within WS 'Results' be copied to a WS that already exists called "Cross Ref Results" (please see the below heading '88888***********8888' for the layout) .........

I am similarly interested in using the logic in this thread http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...uplicates.html
Basically I want to be able to type in a keyword and then bring up a number of matching results along with their associated code.
Using the spreadsheet in the above thread, I tried to add an extra entry as a test, as my database contains roughly ~1500 entries, but excel doesn't seem to like me adding 1 more entry and adjusting the dimensions of the code?

I have a large keyword list
lets say it's 25,676 keyword phrases all in ColA (Always from A3 downwards).
I delete rows as I'm sorting so the number does very.
The sheet tab is always called "All KWs" (For All Keywords Not surprisingly)
What I would like is a macro that does the following.
Can it look at all the keyword phrases on sheet "All KWs" in ColA (From A3 downwards and make a list on a new sheet of just unique keywords from the list.
This sheet will be called "Unique keywords"
So, can it return on this sheet called "Unique keywords" all the unique keywords from the large list in ColA (From A3 downwards) on the sheet "All KWs".
If it can return only unique words and numbers etc, removing all duplicates.
If it can do this From A3 downwards.....

I have 4 macros which inserts a row in workbook (at specific interval of time). These macros run in a endless loop. The problem arises if any other workbook is open and active at the same time. The macro tries to update this active workbook.
Can I ensure that macro runs for only specific workbook (whether the workbook is active or not)
Option Explicit
Public RunWhen As Double
Public RunWhat As String
Dim wCount
Sub Macro3()
'Initialize counter
wCount = 100
Call Macro4
End Sub
Sub Macro4()
If wCount > 0 Then
' If counter greater than zero then update excel with counter and
' call macro to decrease the counter
Cells(1, 2).Value = wCount
RunWhat = "Macro5"...................

I probably just am just missing a Library but when I type "Selection." I would normally expect Autocomplete to pop up telling me that I am able to choose from Cut, Paste, ect. However its it almost as of my VBA editor does not recognize Selection as a proper object.
I have the following Reference Library's loaded:
Visual Basic For Applications
Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library
OLE Automation
Microsoft Office 11.0 Object Library

I am looking to write a macro that will search for keywords on a sheet, on a workbook at a specific path, and would like some help getting this macro started...
It would get run from "WorkbookA", and would look at "WorkbookB" (wherever it is) and find the cell containing the keyword, where the cell value would be the output. I would really prefer that it did not open Workbook B while this macro is run, if thats possible.

I am looking to automatically assign products to a relevant categories on my website and I am working on a spreadsheet. Each category is has a four digit number assigned to it and categories are limited to 3 (Primary, Secondary & Tipperary)
For example:
Computers - 1000 - Desktops - 1100 - Dual Core PC - 1101
Computers - 1000 - Desktops - 1100 - Quad Core PC - 1102
So as you can see you can tell a Dual Core PC is in the Computer & Desktop categories just by looking at the first two digits. The last two digits are the category number. 01, 02, 03 etc.
What I wish to do is associate keywords to the category determine which category that product should be assigned.
Product ID
Product Title
Product Description
Product Spec1
Product Spec2
1
HP Desktop PC
HP Desktop PC's are computers
Intel Dual Core Processor
500GB HDD
2
HP Desktop PC
HP Desktop PC's are computers
Intel Quad Core Processor
1TB HDD
Keywords assigned to category 1101 are Computers, Computer, PC, Desktop, Dual Core.
Keywords assigned to category 1102 are Computers, Computer, PC, Desktop, Quad Core.
And the spreadsheet looks like this:
The script/sum would look at all the cells and match the highest count of keywords to that particular category and populate additional fields called Cat1, Cat2 & Cat3. Therefore the final spreadsheet would look like this:
Product ID
Product Title
Product Description
Product Spec1
Product Spec2
Cat1
Cat2
Cat3
1
HP Desktop PC
HP Desktop PC's are computers
Intel Dual Core Processor
500GB HDD
1000
1100
1101
2
HP Desktop PC
HP Desktop PC's are computers
Intel Quad Core Processor
1TB HDD
1000
1100
1102
How this can be implemented? possibility with the use of VLOOKUP or MATCH commands?
I believe a vlookup would be fine but there's was only 1 value to match but as it's multiples it would need to prioritise based on the number of keywords matched and not just the first match found.

Attached is a spreadsheet describing my problem in greater detail, but essentially i want to extract rows of data depending on quoter name. I'm fairly competent with excel formulae, but cannot get the desired results. I know nothing of VBA other than copying and pasting other's VBA projects in and fiddling with them until something good happens!!
I wish to extract the data and deposit into another worksheet or better still another workbook entirely but without any breaks in the rows of data.
Havent had much luck with advanced filter either.

Am I right to say that "Call" is not mandatory and should be used only to invoke subroutines that do not return a value?
If you use the keyword "Call" to invoke a subroutine that does return something, the returned variable will be discarded.

So I have data that I'm importing in rows 1,2 and 3. The first row has the product type, then rows 2 and 3 have additional info pertaining to that product. I was wondering how I would write a macro that could identify entries in the first row that equal a particular product, and remove those cells, along with its respective info in rows 2 and 3. Ideally, I could just push a button, and a particular product along with all it's info would disappear from my imported table.

What I'm trying to achieve is the following;
I have a big keyword list saved in Excel.
Something like the following,
These are all keyword phrases;
car rent
car hire
cars for rent uk
etc etc etc
All listed in Column A
All phrases in Column A, and in separate rows.(1 phrase per row.)about 2000 lines (Rows) in total.
What I want to know is there any way of selecting the whole list and exporting it (To save it as another list. A list of just unique keywords?
So, It would create a list like;
car
rent
uk
hire
for
etc etc etc.
So basically I want excell to look at all the words and export them to another list showing just unique keywords, 1 per line.
This is so I can see from a huge list what all the unique keywords are.
Is there a way of doing this within Excel Now?? or has someone made a plugin ( Macro) to achieve this?
I've looked at the sort & filter options, but it doesn't appear to have this function?

I have a sheet with 3 ranges of data in Sheet4, being partcode (B20:B20000), description (C20:C20000) and price (D20:D20000).
What I'd like is a macro to take a keyword entered in Sheet4!C17, search the whole range (B20:D20000), and hide the rows that don't contain the keyword.
Autofilter would be the logical method to my way of thinking, but can that work with a keyword entered in a cell, and can it all be hidden in a macro behind a control button?
