Gathering Information From Multiple Files?
Feb 28, 2014
I have a file that is a master report. Every month i have to pull information to it from 40-50 different files (all of these are exactly the same and the data is in the same sheets columns and rows) Is there an easier way of just pointing excel to one folders so it would automatically pull the date into mu master sheet?

Trying to learn the basics of how to pull data, from the same formatted excel spreadsheets, combined into one consolidated spreadsheet. I created a few examples below of what I am trying to do. Eventually, I want to be gathering data from over 200 spreadsheets at one time. I believe that a MACRO is needed to do such a thing. I am not sure of the complexity of the MACRO, so hopefully I will be able to mimic whatever needs to be done in my actual file. I have almost ZERO experience with MACROS, so if this is way above entry level MACRO.
Below I have 3 spreadsheets, and I want to collect the data from those 3 spreadsheets into the consolidated spreadsheet.

I'm trying to do is take a 3 by 40 area from each file, add it together into one report. I've been browsing through some other examples, but i can't seem to get any of them to work. Heres the
Sub clamdata()
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim sFolder As String
Dim count As Long
Dim data(3, 50) As Long
Dim sum1(3, 50) As Long
Dim count2 As Long
Dim vaFileName As Variant
How do I have it select the sheet i want (Eyelet Faults) and then get the data from the ranges I want (B7 to D47), add them, and then output that data to one file?
With this code, it gives me a general error message (and doesn't highlight anything):
Runtime error '91'
object variable or with block variable not set
I originally started with this idea:
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
sFolder = "C:DataReportsWORsWidget"
Set wbBook = ThisWorkbook
Set wsData = wbBook.Worksheets("Data")
lngRows = wsData.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row

I have created an Excel Spreadsheet to capture essential information pertaining to a project within a programme. I have used Excel 2003 and protected the sheet with the password ‘Secret’ and the file can be downloaded here: [url]
I now have a number (30 or 40) of these filled out for each project.
I now need to be able to extract the data, specifically the resource profile. I want to be able to run a macro that will open each spreadsheet in a directory and extract the data and populate the spreadsheet ‘Collated Output’ which can be found here: [url]
The data needs to be appended into the table but ignore empty rows. I created the template in such a way that each section has a static range of cell references.
The Template allows the user to change the start month of the resource profile so that needs to be taken into account when extracting the data so that the profile is aligned to the correct month.

- I have the following folder/file structure:
MP1
CT
CTfile1.csv
CTfile2.csv
CV
CVfile1.csv
CVfile2.csv
FT
FTfile1.csv
FTfile2.csv
...etc - it keeps on going for more subfolders.
- Every subfolder has 2 different .csv files.
- Every file has the same structure. Relevant info:
. column B - time string
. column C - value
- The files are automatically genarated and report lots of single events (evaluated in Column C) that occurr in a specific time (dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss specified in Column B)
- All files have the same number of lines.
- Line 2 in fileX refers to the same time as Line 2 in fileY; the same for all lines.
What I need is a Macro in a file "Master.xls" placed in folder MP1 to automatically:
1. open each file in the subfolders
2. copy the time string (column B) for A2 down - only needed for the first file
3. copy the relevant info (column C) - in every file
4. close all files
Result: I have a "Master" file with the relevant info of all the others, preceeded by a time string from where I can work (pivot table, graph, etc.). The files can have from 5.000 to 30.000 lines, depending on the day.

I'm a relatively competent VBA user to a macro recorder and basic editing of custom code level but fall short with writing custom code and don't have much used or proven code I can copy from.
Problem: I'd like to automate a process whereby consolidating certain information within many data files (possibly up to 500) into a single tab within a master file.
At the moment there are only a few data files which are manually consolidated by way of manual links but going forward it will increase significantly, hence the need to automate.
I need to consolidate the following 5 cells from each data file A1, A2, A5, A7, A8 (vertical) into a single row within the master file across 5 columns (horizontal), i.e. each data file will populate 1 row in the master file, one below the other. If there are 500 data files there will be 500 rows of data in the master file.
The data files will be saved in a central location on our server and the master file will sit outside this folder, possibly in a subfolder.
Something which would be handy is a link in the master file to each data file, i.e. if I click on a data row in the master file it would jump to the source data file.

I have a macro that transfers (copy/paste) information from one master file to several other individual files. The macro works, but I would like
to enhance it by have it spit out errors in the process as follows: if cell A42 on file VP1.xls is not equal to Cell C35 on file Masterfile.xls then make cell E2 ERROR and fomat E2 bold-red, otherwise do nothing. The macro should continue regardless, I just want it to spot errors.
I think this is pretty simple is just a matter of inserting an IF formula in the macro which is something i don't know how to do yet.

how I can loop through folders to select files starting with a certain word and copy all of them to a different folder and rename them. The folder structure is given below
Company 1(parent folder)
North South East(sub folder) West(sub folder)
Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec
In the above structure, the files are present inside each folders Jan, feb...Dec under the regions North, South East n west. note that I have to select files starting with "Sales" and copy them into a new folder(say results) and rename copied files as Sales1.xls, Sales2.xls etc. (Files are not present in the folder company1, north, south, east and east.)

I have a excel file that I enter information into. I have code that saves the files to a certain folder with the name, date, and time stamp for the file name. At the end of the day I might have 3 to 15 excel files I have created that day and I would like to take information from certain cells (examle: L3, B6, B7, B8, G8, and so on) and create a txt file with all of the information in it.
Example:
12/20/2007
Your Name
123 Somewhere St.
Here, OH 45111
Home Visit
12/20/2007
Someone Else
345 Anywhere St.
There, OH 45211
Hospital Visit

I have about 100 Excel files in one folder that need to be saved as text files. They can keep the same name, but simply need to be converted to text files. I'd like to use VBA for this and I can't find examples that do exactly that...or ones that my limited knowledge can handle.
Excel files exist in C:Source and ALL of them should be saved as text files in C:Destination. Maybe there is an easier way, but I thought for sure there was a routine I could use.

I have a selection of data that lists sellout information for 45 different Cable networks. What I'm hoping to accomplish is to have (on a separate sheet) a function that will automatically pull out the top 10 networks based highest sellout percentages and list them in order from highest to lowest. I don't even know where to begin or if it is even possible to set up as an automatic function.

Attached is a sample of a excel file I am using for tracking overtime.
On the sheet labeled tracking I want to gather data of the other sheets based on a date range.
All sheets other than the tracking sheet will be labeled in the date format mm-dd-yy.
On the tracking sheet in cells B2 & B3 will be the date range that I want to gather the data from.
There is 3 columns of data that I want to gather, "Balancing" "Approved" "Unknown".
I would like to return just a sum of these from the dated sheets M3:O42 based on the employee name A3:A42

I have a what I believe to be a consistant formula on lines S12-S18 for gathering the sumproducts for dates on column O. Only problem is that the sumproduct formula is not working on line S18 correctly. I keep looking it over and I can't figure out why it is not returning the correct amount for that cell.
Here is the formula I am using:
=SUMPRODUCT((TEXT($O$12:$O$500,"dddd")=R18)*1)
Please see attached line S18 for the error I am getting.

In the attached WB I managed to write some code (behind Sheet1) to change the Source table, itself, into the requested layout. My question is - could this be done by ONLY Worksheets functions - preferable without any helper column - if possible. note that all 4 columns data should be transported to the target table. The upper left cell of the target/new layout table can be put in cell G1 or in cell A15.

I'm attempting to list my data... I have a dynamic table that has the following columns:
number of countries
country 1
country 2
country 3
1
Egypt
3
USA
Egypt
Scotland
2
Scotland
USA
As you may have guessed, I want trends on these countries. That would be easier to do if I had a single "Country" columns but I have to work that way.
I would have wanted to work with a pivottable (because they're so "user-friendly" (not always though^^)) but I didn't find a way to do it.
The reason why I want to work with a pivottable is to be able to link my countries results to the rest of the table.. If that's not possible, I'd still want to be able to reference them and say "USA, egypt and scotland pop up 2 times"
I found the following formula (in E2):
Code:
=INDEX(Table1[country 1]:Table1[country 3];MOD(ROWS(E$2:E2)-1;ROWS(Table1[country 1]:Table1[country 3]))+1;INT((ROWS(E$2:E2)-1)/ROWS(Table1[country 1]:Table1[country 3]]))+1)
Which works but I have to manually click-drag that cell down to complete my list. I'd rather have it grow automatically if I have to work that way.

ok lets say you have thousands of rows of raw data and you are running vlookups to pull specific data from the raw data to update your spreadsheet. Your raw data consist of some new ideas so when you vlook up, you get an error. In my case i get about 50 errors all spaced out amoung the thousands of rows or raw data. I would like to create a formula that would go and find the error and output a code/value that already exist in the raw data and output that in Cell D1 for example. The it will go and find the second error and output that into cell D2 and then the third error and output that into D3 and so on.....
The idea is that when its done a list of all the errors will have been created so then i can use other formulas to simple add the new info to the workbook. Instead of search through thousands of rows for the errow.

I have one main Excel file with information (in example file - columns A & B). I want to create 4 other Excel files that will draw from the main one (in example file - columns D, F, H, & J). I want the information in Excel file A, B, C, and D to be continuous information that matches the main file. For example, the letter A matches up with numbers 1,3,4,10,11,13,15,17, and 19 in the main file. When I open Excel file A, I want a continuous list of these numbers. And I want this for all 4 Excel files which draw from the main one.

I've been given the task of automating a spreadsheet to assess whether work has been done by each employee. Every employee has their own spreadsheet, where column A is a job code, and column H contains either y or n dentoting whether they have completed the task (y) or not (n).
The main spreadsheet is designed to show any outstadning tasks across everybody so it has a list of everybodies names in column A and then any incomplete tasks will be listed from columns b onwards next to the appropriate person. Here is what I have done at the moment.

I recently undertook an excel based knowledge test and whilst I haven't been informed of the answers/scores yet I have been frustrated with my inability to find the answer to what seemed like a simple question on the test....
Q: Without using copy and paste, put A1:H11 and its associated formulas and formats onto all 7 worksheets within the workbook.
Bearing in mind all questions on the test generally used only a few keystrokes, I felt fairly stumped and with copy and paste excluded from the options I am convinced I answered incorrectly. But the worst of it is I left fairly contently from the test and thinking I would get home and satisfy myself with the answer outlining a simple oversight on my part, have been shocked that I've been unable able to find one anywhere, is anybody able to put me out of my misery here as it's beginning to really bug me!
