I have a problem with getting the list of files in subfolders. this code is writing the names of files in a folder to column "A". But it is just "target" folder. But i need to get the name of all files not just under the target folder but also subfolders of target and even subfolders of subfolders of target
VB:
Dim FSO As Object
Dim SourceFolder As Object
Dim FileItem As Object [code]....
I tried to search for threads about opening files from multiple subfolders but the following codes does not open files. Could someone please check and edit the code that I have below:
Dim lCount As Long Dim wbResults As Workbook Dim wbCodeBook As Workbook
I found some code that works well to index a folder and all sub-folders for file names.
The issue is that the folder used is coded in an excel spreadsheet (cell C7) in the below code and whether to look in sub-folders (cell C8 - True or False).
Code: Sub ListFiles() iRow = 11 Call ListMyFiles(Range("C7"), Range("C8"))
[Code]....
I have tried to incorporate the browse for folder and select if sub-folders are used, but it isn't working.
I am looking for a macro that will list all subfolders (all levels) within a directory and count files in each of those subfolders. No file names, just number of files contained in each folder.
My problem is to create a macro that will list all folders, subfolders and files in an order in excel. So that I know which folders and files belong to which main folder, more like a hierarchy.
For example, Sourcefolder Subfolder 1 File1
I have code that list all files in folders and subfolders, but it does not put them in a hierarchy fashion.
i have many excel workbooks in a folder i want a macro that will get the names of all the files and make the file names so extracted as a hyperlink to open the files.
I am totally new to both EXcel 2007 and Programming however i would really like to create a main folder using coloum A and then a subfolder within the main folder just created using coloum B.
I have looked on line and found some code but when i put/assign the code to a button it never appears to work.
i am trying to open a get a code working that will enable me to enter a file name in a cell of the current workbook open, then search through a root directory and subfolders, find the file and open it. the code below i giving me grief. i am using 2007 excel.
I have a folder C:My Documents that contains excel & Pdf files. Is it possible to list all the files by name contained in this folder in a excel spreadsheet i.e one filename one cell?
Here is a macro I have found and manipulated for my particular case. The problem is that I want to narrow the search criteria by just pdfs and only those starting with Segment which i know in coding would be something like "Segment" & "*" & ".pfd" or something to those terms but the code uses objects which I'm not too familiar with.
Code: Sub ListAllFile()
Dim objFSO As Object Dim objFolder As Object Dim objFile As Object Dim ws As Worksheet
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set ws = Sheets("Simple Cut Lists (2)")
I have a folder containing many Excel files. Each is unique, and I wish to characterise them in a separate contents file in Excel. To do so, it would be very useful to populate a worksheet with the names of the files in the folder.
We use Excel 2003 and 2007 to track labor data for a field service company. The field tech's complete daily forms and the office staff copy/paste this data into weekly billing worksheets. They use naming conventions to show the jobs and dates in the file name (Daily Labor - Job1 - 031308.xls and Weekly Labor - week ending 3-16.xls. What I would like to do is link the daily data to the weekly forms as they come in. Is there some way to do this when the job names and the dates are always different? Can I tell Excel to expect data files based on the naming conventions as in the Weekly is named "Weekly Labor - Week Ending 3-16.xls so data files named LaborJob1310.csv, laborjob1311.csv would automatically update the weekly sheet? I can put these in a folder and link them, but I don't know how to provide an easy way to do this for the upcoming week.
I have a question about creating a custom drop down menu. In AutoCAD, I can create custom drop down menus that loads each time AutoCAD loads and i was wondering if excel have something similar. This menu would be added to the default menu list: "File_Edit_View_Insert_Format_Tools_Data...etc". I have searched online but i keep getting things about how to make drop down menus in cells but nothing about adding a main drop down menu.
What I want to do is create a menu with hyper links to all of the excel files we use quite often here at work.
I have already done this by just creating a sheet with a list of hyper links on it but would like to put it in a drop down menu instead if its possible.
Need to querry various .xls files for various data values in column A.
The directories will stay static, subfolders will be dynamic. Is there a way to querry through the ever varying subfolders and search for BOM.xls / BOM2.xls files? Searching Column A?
The following code is something that was developed to find files with certain criteria that matches references in cells A1 & A2. The coding is as follows:
Code: Option Explicit Option Compare Text 'for Case-Sensitive matching change Text to Binary Sub List_Matches() Dim sPattern As String, sPath As String, sJob As String Dim sMainDir As String, sCommonSub As String Dim c As Range, lRow As Long
[Code] .......
The red is the area of the code i am having problems with. The original code was going to look only in one directory, now I wanted to add a second directory with reference located in E5. Now as is the program works fine looking at directory 1 or E4, but the problem i feel is that for E5 all the folder name are named "WO#_____ - ______". I believe the # sign is not allowing it to open that folder and search for the info. In the code there is a function for solving the # sign problem in a file name, but how could i either modify the code or the function to do the same for the folder name and view the # sign as a valid file name to open?
I tried to write some VBA code to loop through all the files in a folder and return the name of the file. (In my current example, all the files are excel workbooks)
Here is the code I have used:
Sub Load_List()
Dim lCount As Long Dim wbResults As Workbook Dim wbCodeBook As Workbook
Set wbCodeBook = ThisWorkbook
With Application.FileSearch .NewSearch 'Change path to suit .LookIn = "G:CFOMiddle OfficeDannyFine Tunning for JP" .FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
However, when I tried to run the code, it give me the error message saying: the defined type of the variable are not been defined. Seems to me, that VBA dont have the variable type as Folder, or File.
creating a macro, I have a list of CSV files in a folder called balances, i need a macro that will look into each CSV file and grab all p'folios which have a negative balance in Col D and line them up as per example shown below. The extracted data needs to be copied to file named "Workings" S:RecsalancesWorkings
All data in CSV file looks like this, where header row is row 1 starting at A1
I am unable to install a disk catalog and have been trying with no success to try and get something in excel that will look at a directory and display the contents of that folder with the file attributes etc
Sorry that I'm very new in Excel VBA coder. And, for this topic, I don't even know how to start. I want to make a MS Excel database of a numerous files. This database must be consist of Filename, Location, and it's attribute (let's say updated date, size, hidden status)
Essentially, the Engineering Dept has given me 550 AutoCad files I have dumped into a folder located in this path: C:/DrawingsDump
From these 550 DWG files I need to manually filter and separate 260 drawings that I actually need to use and move them to a folder located in this path: C:/DrawingsFiltered . This manual filtering process takes a lot of time and is tedious work and it has got to be done everytime Engineering changes drawings because they are not kind enough to provide me a delta list.
In Excel 2003 I have setup a list of all 260 drawings I am interested in and that I call my filtered list. Is it possible to create a script that will enable Excel 2003 to compare my filtered list to all of the files inside C:/DrawingsDump, and then copy only those files that match to my Excel Filtered list and then paste only matching files into the C:/DrawingsFiltered folder?
If Excel 2003 can't handle this, is there a third party application that will let me perform a file management function like this with minimum startup time?
I'm trying to make a macro that will search a folder and move all files from 2008 into another folder. So far it can do this, but what i need is for it to search subfolders also. At this point it moves all files from the main folder, but nothing from the subfolders.
