I'm looking for how to open multiple files base on the value of Range("A1:A" & Lr).
Below is one I'm using for ForlderPicker but I'd like to select a certains file I want to

I would like to know how to open multiple excel files from a folder based on the information based in cells down a certain column until the last cell.
I thought it might be something like this but it isn't: ....
I'm trying to open multiple files based on an array of WBnames that are on a 'Dashboard' tab, but I only want to open them if they are not already opened. The code below doesn't seem to check if they are open and just opens everything....
VB:
Sub OpenWorkbooks()
Dim WorkbookOpen()
Dim WBnames() As String 'Array of WorkBooks to be Open
Dim WorkbookCnt As Integer
[Code] .....
I'm doing the following:
Dim myname As String
myname = Application. GetOpenFilename
I use it to attempt to open first a QuickBooks file and then an excel workbook.
The Quickbooks file opens fine. The Excel workbook never appears to open but
I do get the full file pathname to my excel workbook returned which I then
parse off to get just the workbook name.
Why would it behave this way? I open both these files manually all the time.
Also, I'm trying to use a filter as follows:
myname = Application.GetOpenFilename("*.QBW")
I get a compile error saying that I'm calling the function wrong.
i have this code below that opens a prn file. What i want it to do now is to open the next prn file within the folder. I want it to continue until it opens all of them in the folder.
Sub Macro1()
Dir ("D:FTP dataOrder Assessment*.prn")
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:="D:FTP dataOrder Assessment*.prn", _
Origin:=xlWindows, StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlFixedWidth, FieldInfo:= _
Array(Array(0, 1), Array(8, 1), Array(12, 1), Array(31, 1), Array(44, 1), Array(59, 1), _ Array(72, 1), Array(84, 1), Array(93, 1), Array(103, 1), Array(114, 1), Array(123, 1))
End Sub
i have a master file which needs to be updated by several other sourcefiles. I did a macro running from the master file which opens all of the sourcefiles one by one, copies the relevant info from the sourcefile to the masterfile, and closes the sourcefile, then moves to the other one. i know this is probably not the case, but the code below seems to behave randomly: sometimes it works, sometimes it bugs by saying file not found runtime error 1004:
Dim masterfile As String
masterfile = "Master.xls"
Dim sourcefile As String
CurrentWeek = InputBox("Enter current week number")
CountWk = 35
sourcefile = "Source" & CountWk
Workbooks.Open (sourcefile)
....
The last statement causes the error. Both master.xls and source35.xls are in the same folder.
the VBA code to allow a user to navigate to any of our network directories and upon selecting (using workbook getopenfilename hopefully) the proper folder on their directory open each txt file (delimited with a pipe) and then save the active file as a xls file and then close it and move on to the next file. I am pretty sure this will take a do while statement but I am not sure how to write it.
I want to know if its possible to write a macro that will prompt me to open a document, then once open it will copy data and paste it into the working spreadsheet. I have a mini macro that cuts and pastes data elsewhere in the sheet but at present I am manually opening a file then copying all and then pasteing the data which is rather slow.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm having problems with the multiselect argument of the getopenfilename function. I've used this dozens of times with no problems, but now it doesn't work for me. I tried copying and pasting code that works in one module,
What I'm using is
Sub OpenFiles()
Dim vFiles As Variant, iNumfiles As Integer
vFiles = Application.GetOpenFilename(MultiSelect:=True)
If IsArray(vFiles) Then
For iNumfiles = LBound(vFiles) To UBound(vFiles)
MsgBox vFiles(iNumfiles)
Next iNumfiles
End If
End Sub
pretty simple, expect that when I select multiple files in the open dialog box, vfiles is a string containing one of the filenames, not an array containing them all! (by selecting, I simply highlight all the fiels I want and click open)
I have multiple files in one directory. I have a master sheet that gives me basic information about all those files. In column K it list's all the file names and file paths. I would like to be able to use the auto filter to sort these files. Once the files are sorted they are opened and the relevant information (the CHRD page) is then copied into the master (Query.xls) the first copied page is renamed to sheet1 and second to sheet2 etc. Right now i have to manually run the macro's depending on which line the files are listed. I have also had to create separate macro's for each line.
View 2 Replies View Relatedi would like to use the application.getopenfilename to select multiple files, then with these file's would like to be able to use them to create a email with these files as the attachment. then move the files to a new location and delete the originals.

To have something more like a form popup showing for a search within a folder for files containing 'Brians Store':
Open? Name Date
O "Quote Brians Store - ProductsA.xlsm" 1/2/12
O "Quote Brians Store - ProductsB.xlsm" 1/1/12
O "Quote Brians Store - ProductsA.xlsm" 1/5/11
O "Quote Brians Store - ProductsC.xlsm" 1/4/11
And I may want to open the 1st, 2nd and last files.
I do'nt know really my problem is regarding excel or with windows, actually stange thing starts happening, I open multiple excel files but only one general excel instance is showing on the task bar. If I need to switch between the file I have to minimise the one I am using and then select other to open it. Even shortcut Alt+Tab switch is not working to switch between the excel files.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to open 9 files in different worksheet. If the files is not present i want to get to the next available one. I don't understant the following code will work once, but not 2 times in arrow. The error handler routine works only once and then if the file is not present I will get a error 1004 (on this line Workbooks.Open Filename:="c:" & openfile). I know that the file is not present but the error gets trap the first time and not the second time.

I have a control button that uses this code
ChDir "H:EMCARCHIVE"
varFileName = Application. GetOpenFilename("Excel Files (*.csv), *.csv, (*.xls), *.xls")
however the files list but when you select any one of them they do not open and the file name is not displayed in the filename box
can you let me know why the files do not open
I'm trying to build a macro to open multiple files at one time that will always be saved in a consistent drive. The problem is that sometimes there will only be one file for a month (ie only at month-end) and other times, there may also be additional files for different dates throughout the month. I wont know ahead of time how many files there will be, but they will always be saved in the same file name type that is "FILE DESCRIPTION MM-DD-YYYY". How can I build a loop that looks for a file on each possible day but doesn't error out if the file doesn't exist?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a macro that will open certain files based on the contents of a cell. There are three possible files that I will want to open.
File1.xlsx
File2.xlsx
File3.xlsx
If the contents of cell Q2 = 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 then open "File1.xlsx"
If the contents of cell Q2 = 60, 70 or 80 then open "File2.xlsx"
If the contents od cell Q2 = 90, 100, or 110 then open "File3.xlsx"
If the contents of Q2 do not equal any of the possibilities listed then I would like an error box to show with the option to end or debug the code.
I have 40 files in one folder which I named it as "CA" + month's name that I am working on. I need to do analyse these files monthly and save it under new folder. how do I automatically save them in new folder and name them for that particular month. Also, each file has worksheet which has one cell as "Aug-07" and the cell next to it has number of that month that is "08". How do I automatically change this also based on the name of the file, because file name month and month in the cell are the same.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a number of similar templates on a server used to produce quotations from other files with lookup formulas. They all have 2 modules, 3 & 4. Module 3 deletes certain data and shows values instead of formulas for most of the pricing etc. Module 4 contains a macro that logs info in another central workbook on the server.
If 2 files are opened based on the same template at once, when the Quote_Wrapup macro (in module3) is run on one of the open files(code follows) from a button on the spreadsheet it often produces a Run-time error '9' Subscript out of range error.

I have a directory which contains many files, they are all names based on their locations. eg. Burwood-File1.xls,Burwood-File2.xls,Burwood-File3.xls etc
I have a master that which will contain the branch in the first column.
I have defined the directory location in a separate sheet as well as email template.
When I click on the Send Email button I want ti to attach the files that match the Branch name.
The Branch list will constantly grow.
I want to allow users to place files (.jpg, .tif, .pdf, .pps etc) into a network folder and then have my program open each file and display it for 30 seconds then close the file and the application before opening the next file.
1. Set up a loop to get a directory listing of the folder and write the listing to a text file.
2. Open up the text file and get the next filename in it
3. Open the file in the associated application
4. Wait for 30 seconds (or some period of time) and then close the file
5. Repeat steps 2-4
DoIt = 1
While DoIt = 1
Open "C:TempList.txt" for output as #1
Print #1, Files In Folder
Close #1
Open "C:TempList.txt" for input as #2
while not eof(2)
Line input #2, MyFile
Display MyFile on screen
Wait for 30 seconds
Close MyFile and MyApplication that opened it
wend
Close #2
I can get the directory listing just fine with no problems
I can open the files in the associated application just fine with no problems.
with closing the application after 30 seconds or some period of time.
I need some code that will allow me to easily send it a filename and it will know how to close the file and the application that opened it.
I have an Excel application (Excel 2003) which is stored in the default Program Files folder by the Installer; for example: c:program fileszxchello.xls. The problem I am running into is this file opens as Read Only in Vista and this is interfering with the running of the application. There is no problem opening the file normally in Windows XP.
I have been able to narrow down the cause of this to the User Account Control system in Vista - if I turn OFF User Account Control, the Excel file opens normally and my application functions normally. Is there another option to open the Excel file without turning OFF User Account Control because some users may find it unacceptable to turn OFF this security feature. Ofcourse, one option is to install the application in another location, outside the Program Folder, and the file would open normally, but the Packaging Wizard that I am using to package the application does not allow me to install the application in any other location and thus, the application installs in the Program Folder and I am running into this problem of the Exel file opening as Read Only. Is there a way out of this situation where I can open the file normally (not as Read Only)?
I am trying to an excel macro that will automatically import data from specific files. The basic information is this:
1. There is a MySQL script that runs every day and creates tab-delimited text file named as the date.Example:
OutputDIR
02-14-2014.txt
02-15-2014.txt
02-16-2014.txt
2. I need grab data from each of the files for a rolling 30 day period from the date specified in the sheet. The data needs to go onto the same sheet in Excel.Example: B2 on the "Settings" worksheet says 02-14-2014. So take data from 02-14-2014 minus 30 days (01-15-2014.txt) all the way up to today and consolidate it onto an existing worksheet called "Data."
3. If the date in cell B2 is changed, overwrite the data that was already retrieved and replace it with the new import from the new date.Example: B2 is changed to 01-31-2014. Now take data from 01-31-2014 minus 30 days and overwrite what was already imported in worksheet "Data."
I get about 10 text files at the beginning of each month that I need to import into Excel. The file layout does change slightly from month to month so I have an Excel spreadsheet with the layout as the first worksheet. Each text file is in fixed layout form rather than delimited. The structure of that page is that the name of the first text file is in cell A1. The cumulative field widths are below that and the data formats are next to the field widths (in the adjacent column “B”). T=Text, G=General, D= Date with 3 flavors of Date: YMD, DMY and MDY. For the second text file, it repeats the structure in columns “C” and “D”, the third text file in columns “E” and “F” etc. What I would like is for the macro to open the first text file (based on the name in cell A1) and import it into a new worksheet (same file) using the cumulative field widths in A2 through A8 and the formats from B2 through B8, then import the next text file to a new worksheet (same file) using the cumulative field widths in C2 through C8 and the formats from D2 through D8 and keep going until all the files have been imported. The sheet names should be the same as the file that is imported (the “.txt” part of the file name isn’t important). I’ve attached a copy of the Excel spreadsheet that has the file names, field widths (cumulative) and field formats and a 2 row sample of the text file for the first import.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a few CSV files that sits in a folder ie C:/Data and I want to split the data in those files into different sheets. Each of those files contains rows of data with an account number. For example, I have 3 files that contains transactions and they have accounts "Orange", Apple, pear, I want to put all transations with account apple together and all Orange transaction together etc etc.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've got a single folder for the year 2009 that contains multiple files, identical in nature but updated for each business-day. In other words, the same report is generated daily with updated info. The naming convention is the same for every file (i.e. Daily Net Debt Report 02.2.2009.xls)
My ultimate goal is to have a macro that is dynamic enough that if its run on any given day of the year, it pulls the data (specifically from the worksheet "Detailed Cash" cells C1:E26) from every file included in the folder and places it in a single worksheet in the master file. So, for example, data from 1/2/09 would go into cells A1:C26, data from 1/3/09 would go into cells D1:F26, etc...
This is what I am trying to achieve:
1) Prompt user to select a file (or multiple files)
2) Copy the files that meet certain criteria to a folder

I have created an Profit&Loss excel sheet with all the accounts in column A and then the values for each month, January to December in column B to column K like this:
Column A...............Col B............Col C........Col D........Col E.....and so on
Account 1..............2222............58452........5255.........5844....
Account2................5.................45...............25...........458 ....
I've made a macro that creates a textfile and saves it on my desktop, but I get a text file with all the info in the same file, what I want is to get one text file for every month, that is text file number one(january) is: The heading info+column A+columnB
text file number two(February) is: The heading info+column A+columnC
text file number three(March) is: The heading info+column A+columnD and so on
In the heading info I have to state the period and then I need the macro to change this for every text file, that is for the january file it has to be "1 to 1", for february "2 to 2" and so on. As it is now it will always say "1 to 1" because that is the values I have entered.

I am trying to open a specific workbook, from several books on a shared drive, based on a value found in a range of cells.
For example, range A3:B3 will contain a number, and cmay also contain some text, but based on the number found in that range, I want to open or activate a particular workbook.
Let me know if further clarification is required.
I have the code below. It openes all csv files within a folder, then delete rows depending on the value of a cell. Now it needs to save the file as a xls file ....
