Was wondering if it is possible to get below information from Active Directory into an Excel Sheet though VBA. All these details are within an OU in AD: UsernameDescriptionUser Logon NameFirst Name + Last NameTelephone Number I have been searching around and i think I need to connect using ADO, but not sure how to get these objects from AD.
View 1 RepliesFrom an Excel workbook userform, I want to capture a logon name and password, and then authenticate against Active Directory.
The only information I want from the process is whether the user name/password combination is valid in AD.
I know how to do all the Excel stuff (userform, etc.), and I know how to get information from AD using an administrator binding. What I am missing is being able to verify whether the Excel workbook user is the AD user that they claim to be.
I am having an issue with some code that I am using. I am using the code below to pull a list of folders within a specific directory. I run the code two different times, once on initialization and then again when the combobox values change. The code works well when it is run in initialization. However when the combobox is changed I wind up getting all of the folders listed in the combobox twice. I do not understand why this part of the code gets executed twice.
Here is the initialization code
Code:
Dim FileList, FilePath As Variant
mypath = "c:"
MyName = Dir(mypath, vbDirectory)
[Code].....
The following code uses the GetAdsProp formula to get the user info properties from the Active Directory.
I am able to get the Firstname,Last name. But not able to get the data for the expiryDate.
[Code] ..........
The file that this code is located in is often sent to others to use which means I have to modify the directory and path each time I send this file in order for the VB code to work.
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:= _
"C:My documents-2Monthend Supplemental ReportsDeficiency ReportscurrentC37.txt"
Is there a way to have the file opened from any active directory it happens to reside in?
I am trying to query Active Directory for a list of user attributes by using a list of usernames and output the results into column B,C,D.....
All the usernames are listed in column A and it ranges from 100 to 1000 usernames.
The macro GetAdsProp works but it is very slow because it's a function and every time it gets called to return a value, it takes a long time to query. It will take forever to get 1000 users.
I've also tried the code below, however one of the AD attribute that I am querying for has a dash (i.e. test-address) and I can't put a dash in the vba code because it automatically puts spaces in between the dash and the text (see red text below) which will fail to find the attribute. Also, I need it to loop the whole column A and not just one account.
Sub LoadUserInfo()
Dim x, objConnection, objCommand, objRecordSet, oUser, skip, disa
Dim sht As Worksheet
' get domain

Read “My Documents” Path And Use Result
Problem:
Note:
Typical user OS will be Windows XP Pro / Win 2K
Excel version : 97 / 2002 / 2003
1. Corporate network security settings will only allow directory/subdirectory creation in the “My Documents” section of customers individual computers.
2. Per customer request, VBA application needs to save extracted files for future use.
3. I can specify an initial “My Documents” subdirectory be made and the VBA application file be loaded/copied into that location – i.e. – “My DocumentsCat”.
4. When VBA application is opened from that specified directory, (first time), the application needs to make an additional subdirectory tree to save future files. I can read the opened from location via VBA with the following:
Dim filepath As String
filepath = ThisWorkbook.Path
As an example – this code would produce a string definition of “filepath” – such as the following:............................
I'm trying to retrive files from a given directory into excel.
I already have this file from another posted message:

FileName = Dir$("*.*")
Do While Len(FileName)
F = F + 1
ReDim Preserve TheNames(1 To F)
TheNames(F) = FileName
FileName = Dir$()
Loop
Cells(1, 1).Resize(F, 1).Value = Application.Transpose(TheNames)
End Sub

What I have is a sheet that is copied periodically from some source sheet, and on this sheet is a table. This sheet is called "Onsite Checklist Template" and it's table is titled "Checklist". I also have another sheet called "Loggers and Initial Notes" which has a tabled titled "Record", and then finally a title sheet call "Proj Details".
To clear this intro up - The sheets, in their order, is: "Proj Details", "Loggers and Initial Notes", "Onsite Checklist Template". The tables: "Record" on "Loggers..." and "Checklist" on "Onsite..."
When the user wants to make a new site visit, he/she fills in the requested date and then selects a button on "Proj...". When this button is selected, it copies the table data on "Record" and puts it on "Checklist", then inserts a new worksheet tab, always in the 3rd position (the title is based on the site visit date in which the user entered), which is a copy of "Onsite...". Now we have another sheet with a table called "Checklist1", and upon another new site visit, there will be another worksheet with "Checklist2", and so on.
On the "Onsite..." worksheet, there is a button on it which also gets copied with the worksheet so that every new worksheet has this copied "Checklist ???" and this button. I'm looking for a macro that, when the button is selected, will bounce the active sheet's table "Checklist ???" off of "Record" and make changes as needed.
"Checklist ???" data range is B11:M20 (the header is on row 10); "Record" data range is B29:Q78 (the header is on row 28); Column headers are titled the same, just that "Record" has 4 extra columns, 3 in the middle and 1 on the end. "Checklist ???" columns 1-12 to "Record" columns 1-7, 10-12, 14-15. The search criteria is the 4th column in both tables ("Trk #").
I need the macro to do the following:If it finds a match, then update "Record" as needed with data from "Checklist ???", changing whatever cell is different in the row that contains the matching "Trk #", so long as the cell on "Checklist ???" is populated (i.e, if a cell on the target row of "Record" has a value, but it's blank on "Checklist ???", then "Record" wins; if it's blank on "Record", but populated on "Checklist ???", the Checklist wins. If both populated but different, then Checklist wins.If a "Trk #" exists on "Checklist ???" but is not on "Record" then add the line to "Record" (the 1st empty row, table size remains)I see no need for any "delete" at this time.
My concerns: The last column on record (column #16) is the filtering column for the worksheet copy event and needs to be left alone (it's formulated to produce a "Yes" or "No")I would like the ability to adjust table sizes if needed without modifying the macroThe table rows on "Checklist ???" will not be changed, deleted, or altered in any way by the macro.
I have Workbook named"Test_Template" in below specified path this is not the active workbook.
It is saved in strFName = ThisWorkbook.Path & "Backup" & "Test_Template.xlsx"
I need to create a copy of the same workbook named as "Copy_Test_Template.xlsx" in the same folder(Backup), same specified path on button click.
[Code] .....
But this creates a "Copy_Test_Template.xlsx outside the Backup folder, i want it in the back up folder.
In my search I found several example similar to what I need, but nothing I could adapt to filt my needs, (at least not wim my limited skills).
Here what I need to do:
I have multilple Excel files in a directory. (M:/Archived PO Responses/Domestic). On a daily basis, these files are processed via VBA, and deleted after processing. What I need to do is, prior to processing and deleting these files, create an ongoing log of the filenames in that directory.
Example:
The macro would open an Excel file named "Processed Orders.xls", which is stored on the network drive "M:". It would then append all of the filenames in the directory mentioned above to a sheet named "Processed Orders" in that workbook, below any filenames that already exist.
I have a few files all with the same name for a few different members of staff, so I save them in different paths to keep them separate.
eg
c:documentsdatajo blogsexcelfile.xls
c:documentsdatafred smithexcelfile.xls
c:documentsdatajane jonesexcelfile.xls
cells is the sheet contain the persons name
jo blogs
fred smith
jane jones
I want to be able to use this for others in the organisation and make it a simple as possible

I am trying to query our corporate directory to copy it into excel. The problem is that the table i want to copy has 90 pages. I do not know VBA very well at all.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a music folder on my computer with a TON of music in it. Some folders have sub-folders as well.
I need an easy way to point to a specific folder and pull ALL the names of the files within that folder and all of the sub-folders and put them on an Excel worksheet.
So a brief example...
Main Folder: Now That's What I Call Music
Sub-Folders: Volume 1, Volume 2, Volume 3, etc
And within each sub-folder is at least 2 more folders named CD1 and CD2.
I want to pull the name of every song in ALL of these folders into one collective list in Excel.
I have several hundred text files which I would like to reformat and save as excel without needing to open each file individually.
I'm entirely new to working with macros, so, I was able to use macro recorder to save the steps to reformat the file, but would like setting up the part of the macro to automatically open and reformat all of the files.
What i am trying to do is in 1 workbook (labled as Book1 literally), it needs to copy the sheets out of every .xls file there is in a single directory, we'll call C:MyFolderMySubFolder. There can be anywhere between 1 and 366 files in this particular folder and I need all the sheets in each file labled 'CC' copy that entire sheet, paste that sheet to Book1, go back to that file it was copied from, close it (saving changes is ok), then move on to the next file.. and the next file... and so forth
While pasting into book1, I need each WS copied from each file to paste to a new worksheet in book1 rather than combining them into 1 or overwriting, and lable each of those sheets the file name of which the sheet came from...
The names are in sequence. All files in the folder will be labled as a date such as "9-6-12" so the sheet name in book1 would be named 9-6-12. (so there may result in 366 new worksheets to book1)
I primarily use Microsoft Office Excel 2003
The script collects all the files in directory and sub-directories and list them in ascending format, I want them to get in transpose format. like for example: Root folder has many sub directories and in them a sub directory XYZ has 5 excel files, it will get the sub directory name in Col A and transpose all .xls files.
Col A | Col B________|Col C_________ |Col D___________|Col E________|
XYZ__|C:/root/test.xls|C:/root/Sales.xls |C:/root/Report.xls |C:/root/sam.xls|

I have my code here:
VB:
Sub openfiles()Dim Path As String
Dim ExcelFile As String
' Path = GetFolder("C:UsersKinteshDesktop")
Path = "C:UsersKinteshDesktopVBA programmingMaps"
ExcelFile = Dir(Path & "*.xls")
[Code] ....
NextCode:
GetFolder = sitem
Set fldr = Nothing
End Function
My problem is that the code all actually works (including the function and when I use the commented part), but pointing to this one specific directory (the one I'm using right now), literally nothing happens.
I am trying to prompt the user for the directory to be saved in and file name to be saved as; then save the workbook in the input directory with the inputted file name.

This should occur each time the active cell is changed, whether by cursor keys or mouse. The effect would be similar to the row and column highlights at left and top of the worksheet.
This action should be restricted to one sheet in the workbook.
It's for Excel 2003.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhile using Excel 2003, I am aware of "freeze plane" and "split worksheet". The freeze plane comes in handy if I want to the first few rows to remain stationary and displayed while I can scroll down to the rows below. Similarly, the split worksheet comes in useful if I want to have the first few columns remain in place while I can maneuver to the right to see the other columns.
