How To Incorporate Variable Into Path

Feb 8, 2012

I am using a script within excel as part of this script I want create a new folder to store information

Code:

ChDir "C:Documents and SettingsAdminDesktopMIKEPAYROLL2011-12"

However I want to use a variable called "NEWYEAR" which holds the 2011-12 part

For example this part stays the same

ChDir "C:Documents and SettingsAdminDesktopMIKEPAYROLL

folder 2011-12 held in variable NEWYEAR may or maynot exist.

if the folder exists I want to be able to use the folder, however if it doesn't I need to create it.

The problem is I am not sure how to incorporate the variable into the path.

Use Of Variable In Path Code

Feb 4, 2007

I have been using this code to auto print a series of workbooks whose file date contains the day i want. Each if statement looks to a different folder location to find the spreadsheet with the desired date and auto prints that sheet before moving on to the next if and spreadsheet, and then finally closing. I use an input box to get the date/day variable.

The spreadsheets i auto print are in folders labeled for different months of the year, i.e. 0107, 0207 etc. I want to be able to enter the MONTH i want the spath to look for, in other words, i want to be able to input first the month, which tells the rest of the routine what folder to look for the next input, which is the date of the spreadsheet. I am flummoxed by the variable itself.

The code is below.

Public Sub Auto_Open()
Dim sCurFile As String
Dim sPath As String

fpath = InputBox("shift and day (BXX) of the month to print?", "print")

'Get the path
sPath = "k:2007207"
If sPath <> "" Then
On Error Resume Next
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
If Right(sPath, 1) <> "" Then
sPath = sPath & ""
End If

Define Path & Filename As Variable

Feb 16, 2007

Private Sub cmdImport_Click()
Dim exportFile As String
exportFile = "c:jpmimportTrinity_ImpImport_" & Format( Date, "dd-mm-yy") + "_" + Format(Time, "hh:mm:ss") & ".csv"
Open exportFile For Output As #1

I put a watch on exportFile and it's correctly set to: "c:jpmimportTrinity_ImpImport_15-02-07_17:55:01.csv"

However if I try to run this I get "bad file name or numer" when I open for output - the path exists and I can write to it, so must have a fundamentally wrong approach.

Excel 2013 :: Set Photo Path As Variable?

Mar 31, 2014

I have a macro that inserts a photo via a photo path that has been set as an object variable. This macro has always worked for me in Excel 2003 but after updating to Excel 2013, the macro gives me a "runtime error 1004 - unable to get the insert property of the picture class". When I debug, Excel crashes.

The macro is designed to loop through up to nine fields (in 9 adjacent columns) and find a photo path for a picture, insert the picture, and print that page, then go to the next column, get the photo path and insert that picture and repeat. The initial part of the macro is as follows. The PhotoID as Object seems to be what no longer works...

I do not care if the inserted photos are maintained in the file when it is not connected to the3 drive hosting the photos, only that I can print them when the drive is available.

Sub PrintPDFImpSums()[INDENT][INDENT]Dim PageNo
Dim RangePrint As Range
Dim Photo As Picture

Open Workbook Macro With Variable Path

Sep 15, 2006

I am having trouble getting a macro to open a specific file from an open workbook in the same folder based on the current path of the open file. The application is this... I have two files in the same folder. The first is for data entry and it contains a macro button that will open the second which is a template to which the data in the first will be copied. I can easily do this with a fixed path to the second file, however, I would like to be able to move or copy the folder containing these files to other locations or computers without having to change the path each time. I would like to base the path to the second file minus the file name on the first (already open file) path. Assuming that the first file containing the desired macro button is already open, here is one of many of my attempts...

Workbooks.Open " ActiveWorkbook.PathJob Tracker -.xls"

Assuming the second file is the active workbook, I achieved a similar path assignment when saving the file...

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "Application.Path/Jobs Active/" & "Job Tracker -" & Range(" '[Job Tracker -.xls]Specifications'!$A$6").Value

Pass Chosen File & Path To Variable

Dec 1, 2006

I am running a macro which ends up showing the save as dialog box. The name is correct (data) and the type is correct (XML files) but no matter what I try the file path is not right. Here is the section of

sDataFile = Application.GetSaveAsFilename("data.xml", fileFilter:="XML Files (*.xml), *.xml")

Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set js = fs.CreateTextFile(sDataFile, True, False)
Set f = fs.GetFile(sDataFile)
sFilePath = f.parentfolder & ""
Set f = Nothing

How do I set the file path? I have already seen lots of answers to this but they are based on changing the path permanently or on there being no dialog box already open. I need total automation with the user not being able to see any of the save process.

Prompt To Select File/path And Store As Variable

Jan 29, 2009

I am looking for macro that when run, will open a file explorer window and prompt the user to select a folder and file where they have data stored. Then I need it to be stored as a variable and used as a part of a "Workbook.Open Filename" command.

The reason for this is that, I have a huge formatting marco stored within a workbook. When a user extracts a report from SAP, I want the workbook to grab the file that is extracted, open it and import all of the data in order to be formatted.

Plan Path And Actual Path Distance Calculation?

Feb 11, 2014

I am using an XY scatter chart that displays the planned path and an actual path as I go. The planned path is set up in 100' increments and goes 12000' and actual path varies along the way.

My data that I use is the Northing (ft), Easting (ft) and Vertical Section (ft) for both the planned path and actual path.

I was wondering if there was an east way to get that information from the chart or if there is a formula that would allow me to calculate distance between the two points by using the data I use for my chart.

Incorporate Calendar

Feb 21, 2007

I have the following worksheet ,named "Calendar", to make an annual calendar and I'm wondering if there's a way to use it to make a calendar in worksheet named "NovemberDaily". On the worksheet named "NovemberDaily" I want to put in cells C14, G14, K14, O14, S14, W14, and AA14 "11/1/2007" if the weekday of the week matches the date"11/1/2007". Is this possible or is there an easier way of accomplishing this. I'm needing the date (e.g. 11/1/2007) in the cells mentioned because it ties into another formula that I'm using later in the worksheet.

Incorporate (InputBox) Result In Formula?

Mar 5, 2012

I need to often enter a formula such as:

=SUMIF(H1:H500,"=a",G1:G500)

but, I need to change the variable 'a' to whatever letter I need.

I wrote the following:

y = InputBox("Enter letter")

So, how do I incorporate the 'InputBox' result in the formula?

If I use =SUMIF(H1:H500,""=x"",G1:G500) I just get 'x' as a result, not the letter I input.

Incorporate Several IF Statements Into Single Formula?

Nov 27, 2012

I am trying to incorporate several IF statements into a single formula:

=IF(AB5<20,"LR",IF(AND(AB5<30,AB5>25),"C",IF(T5<>"","CLEAR",IF(AND(AB5<240,AB5>40,AA5=1),"B-T1-F10",""))))

What I am trying to achieve with this formula is:

- insert LR if AB5 is less than 20;
- insert C if AB5 is less than 30 but more than 25;
- if neither of the above is true, insert CLEAR if T5 contains something and if not insert B-T1-F10 if AB5 is between 240 and 40 and AA5 = 1.

The problem I have is that the B-T1-F10 is not being inserted where the other criteria are not met so I think I have not integrated the statements correctly?

Change Sumproduct Formula To Incorporate Condition

Mar 3, 2014

I have have sumproduct formula that works well, however I need a section of it to use a condition.

"=SUMPRODUCT(--(('Input Sheet'!$A$10:$A$20009=3)+('Input Sheet'!$B$10:$B$20009=1)+('Input Sheet'!$C$10:$C$20009=1)=3),--('Input Sheet'!$L$10:$L$20009>=G21),--('Input Sheet'!$L$10:$L$20009<=J21))"

The first section ('Input Sheet'!$A$10:$A$20009=3) looks at column of data and checks if any of the data says 3, however I need the formula to look at the column of data and determine if the figure is =>3 and also =<5.

Incorporate Concatenate Funtion: Return Text Rather Than A '0'

Apr 2, 2009

I have the following formula: ...................

and excel is saying I used too many characters and to use the concatenate function to do so, but I have no idea how.

I wanted to return text rather than a '0' in the case that all the original IF statements were false, I threw another IF statement in there and said if the original is equal to '0', then return "-". If not, then run through the original again (I pasted the original again after the "-").

How To Incorporate If Statement With Find Method In A Range

Jun 22, 2014

I want to search the selected range for a variable value (calculated previously in the sub) and if it finds the value I want the sub to do some things. If it's not in the range I want it do something else.

Here is the relevant section for what I have:

[Code] ......

This works and cuts the value I'm looking for if it finds a value in the range. The problem is it's not in the range I don't know how to tell it to follow other instructions. I tried the "iserror" with an in statement, but it said the range was not set. Intellisense isn't working and I don't really know how to use the .find method ...

Pivot Table - Incorporate Calculated Field For Sub Group

Sep 6, 2012

How to incorporate a calculated field for a sub group.

Here's what the data in the table looks like.

Competitive

Managed

ID
A
B
C
A
B
C

[Code] .....

I am looking to get 3 calculated fields onto the Right hand side that would essentially be the following Formula
=IF(L4"",IFERROR(D4/H4,"n/a"),"")

Thus,
1st Column
=IF(Competitive(A)"",IFERROR(Competitive(A)/Managed(A),"n/a"),"")

2nd Column
=IF(Competitive(B)"",IFERROR(Competitive(B)/Managed(B),"n/a"),"")

3rd Column
=IF(Competitive(C)"",IFERROR(Competitive(C)/Managed(C),"n/a"),"")

The other option would be how to set up conditional formatting to always take on the appearance of Column K of the pivot table. Thus, this calculated section would always appear as though a part of the pivot table and would adjust based on any pivot table items being expanded and collapsed.

Trim Full File Name & Path To File Path Only

Sep 27, 2006

I have a variable ("DestFile") that defines a path to a file (used in saving the file)...

I'm in the process of getting a Sub to hyperlink to this file, but in some circumstances, I may only want to hyperlink to the folder, not the actual file...

How would I go about trimming the "DestFile" address to get a "DestFldr" address?...

An example of "DestFile" might be;
S:BryanFor KenGulf ConstructionST0609014-t.xls
(the file name length may vary)
What code can I use to consistently trim it back to;
S:BryanFor KenGulf Construction
as the "DestFldr" variable?

Create Line Graph That Will Incorporate Multiple Columns Of Data In One Series Of Data

Sep 27, 2011

I am trying to create a line graph that will incorporate multiple columns of data in one series of data. The reason I do not place all of the data in one column is because it could exceed the maximum amount of rows allowed in excel. Also I need the data split up for viewing purposes.

I can easily just graph one column but how do I combine all the columns into one line graph with the data being in separate columns. Basically all the columns will be my Y values and X values are just 1:n.

Example Below:

Column AColumn B Column C159261037114812

Now in the example all of the values are x values.

Incorporate Adjacent Cell In Formula W/o Naming Cell Address?

Oct 2, 2009

I searched and I keep finding something that's not quite what I'm looking to do so I think I'm missing something really simple.

Let's say that I want each cell in col b to be the sum of 5 plus whatever value is in the cell adjacent to it on the left (col).

I know that you can just write a formula in each cell like...

b1 will be =sum(a1+5)
b2 will be =sum(a2+5)

... but is there a shortcut so that you don't have to write out the actual cell address for each one?

Meaning - is there a predefined name or something that represents the cell to the left or right so you can just use that instead, allowing you to just copy paste the same formula all the way down the column? Something like...

b1 will be =sum(left+5)
b2 will be =sum(left+5)

... where "left" represents whatever value is in the cell to the left of that particular cell?
