Import Bloomberg Data
Aug 5, 2007
If it is actually not possible to change the way that bloomberg exports the information to excel then i think there might be two potential ways around it...neither of which i am sure how to do...
1) write some sort of macro which takes data from the new workbook, pastes it into the active workbook then closes the newly created workbook. Potential problem here is that whenever it creates a new workbook it has a slightly different name. eg. "abc1" then "abc2" etc.
2) Write some sort of macro which gets a list of companies from bloomberg with upcoming events over the next week, put this into the active workbook and then simply use the bloomberg get functions to fill out the info.

I hope there's someone who's familiar with Bloomberg in this forum.
My problem is, I have a template which conducts checks with data extracted a Bloomberg Terminal. I want to ensure that all data has FULLY loaded before I execute the checks.
So is there a way to detect if data is still loading?
Like for example, I need data to load from A1:A100, but data has only populated until A50. In this case I need to know that the other 50 cells are still populating.

refer to the picture:
Column H and column X contain dates. If column H = column X, "OK" will be shown. Otherwise "CHECK" would be shown.
The dates are the same, but the problem is, Excel reads column X differently from column H.
I've tried converting both columns to ddmmyyyy and then comparing them, but it doesn't work.
For i = 2 To range("A" & rows.count).end(xlup).row
If Format(Cells(i, 24), "ddmmyyyy") = Format(Cells(i, 8), "ddmmyyyy") Then
Cells(i, 36) = "OK"
Else
Cells(i, 36) = "CHECK"
End If
Next
Is there a foolproof way of doing it?
Column X is data retrieved from Bloomberg, so the format cannot be changed directly.

I attempted doing this by recording the macro but the macro doesn't read me clicking onto Bloomberg Refresh Data Button. How can I do this using VBA?

I have a workbook that pulls in index data from Bloomberg, most data is updated realtime, but one index we track is only updated late at night. I want to write a macro that will refresh all of the data in the worksheet and then save a snapshot of the workbook. I have all the code for saving the snapshot, but getting the data for the one index to refresh is proving difficult. None of the standard ways I know to refresh external data (both Excel commands via tools menu, and Bloomberg specific refresh commands) seem to work on these cells. The only way so far I've found to get these cells to pull in current data is to delete them and rewrite the formulas.
suggestion for a Macro that would force a refresh of this data?

Trying to create a macro where it will begin by inserting today's date into a cell, then pause for roughly 35 seconds while the massive correlation matrix pulls all the correlations of the portfolio in, then takes an output value that is generated in the workbook from the filled correlation matrix (correlation coefficient) and copy's and pastes it in a different cell. Then it repeats this process again using "Today's date - 1" (yesterday's date), waiting 35 seconds again and taking the new output value and copy and pasting it below the previous one.
I know I am not close but here is what I have for code thus far (which does not work properly).

I have an excel workbook right now with a 75x75 correlation matrix. It has 75 stock prices and uses bloomberg to pull in the correlation between each of the holdings. There is a lot of data so it takes roughly 35 seconds for it all to get pulled in from bloomberg. The input value that I can change is the date. The output value is a specific correlation coefficient. Thus, if I input today's date into a cell in the file, it will run the correlation matrix and tell me the correlation between all the holdings using the past year's data. Then it will produce a single output value.
I am now looking to use VBA to make this more robust. What I have been trying to do is have a macro which will -
(1) input the current date into the input cell
(2) have the code wait 35 seconds (and since it is using bloomberg pull in the traditional wait methods do not work because they actually stop the data pull in also)
(3) copy the output value
(4) paste special that value in a different cell
(5) repeat the process but this time use the date from a day before and have the output value copied and pasted to a cell below the previous one.
This loop would continue over 20 times.
Below I have some code that allows me to do this process once but is not looped and I have been stuck trying to make this work with a loop given the bloomberg delay. When I add a loop, it does not wait the 35 seconds I need before doing the whole process again.

i have the following macro that loops through 100 tickers in sheet 1, gets the trades for each, pushes each ticker's trades to sheet 2 to create a list of all trades. The problem is that I just get a #N/A requesting data for each ticker. This seems to be a wider problem with fetching external data from Bloomberg. However, I cannot seem to get a fix for it.
Sub Macro()
On Error Resume Next
Sheet2.Range("B3:E65536").ClearContents

Firstly you don't need to know anything about Bloomberg to answer this query, only that Bloomberg has various functions that take time to update.
The code Application.Run "RefreshEntireWorkbook" will update these functions but Application.OnTime (Now + TimeValue("00:00:25")), "RunList" is required to allow them time to get the data from the feed. However this only works if the refresh and wait commands are in a seperate function. So in simplified terms it must go like this in vba:

I want to be able to run a macro that will export some of the data from a worksheet called Generated Report into another worksheet called Matrix. The data will be taken Generated REport and grouped into sections of the worksheet. These sections will be defined by the BRID value.
The Data that i want to export will be from the first 5 columns within the Generated Report(note there are other columns which data is not required from).
The following columns will be exported from Generated Report -
BRID,Requirement, Bug Description, Bug ID and Alt Bug ID.
BRIDRequirement Bug DescriptionBUG ID Alt Bug ID
PQ115 PQ115-Login Bug Description text xihllloloj43712 123
PQ116PQ116-Landing Bug Description text ghghghgoot 43713 126
For Matrix
The data will be imported into Matrix worksheet into the following columns as part of the row headings
- Requirement, Description, Bug ID and VF Bug ID.There will also be other columns (outlined below) which i will use to manually enter data
The data will be grouped and imported into the relevant section by its BRID eg PQ115, PQ116 etc.
I want each section (marked by BRID number)to be separated by row headings.
These row headings are to be generated after populating all data within each BRID number.
When the data has been populated in each row there is a column called 'Status' which contains drop down list boxes which can be assigned.
The default status will be set to 'To Do'. The complete row headings are displayed with Output from Generated Report underneath
BRID Priority Requirment Description BugID Alt Bug ID PC UpdateNotes Actual Result Type of DEfect Test Status Tested by
PQ115 PQ115-Login Bug Description text xihllloloj43712 123 To Do
BRID Priority Requirment Description BugID Alt Bug ID QC UpdateNotes Actual Result Type of DEfect Test Status Tested by
PQ116 PQ116-Landing Bug Description text ghghghgoot43713 126 To Do
So far the macro that i have been using allows me to locate the data for each specific BRID in Generated Report and copy into the corresponding BRID section within the Matrix. I have to repeat this step for each new BRID and i want to be able to whole automate this process.

I'm attempting to import around 200 (and growing!) separate text files into Excel. I am using the formula below to import the text file and then using a separate macro to select the information I need, copy it into another spreadsheet, and then run the import macro again.
However, I have a problem in that my import macro gives me 'Run-time error '1004:
Application defined or user defined error''. At first this wasn't a problem as the information is pasted into the spreadsheet despite the error anyway. However, now that I am looping the macro it is obviously causing more problems as it prevents the loop. I would really appreciate it if anyone knows of a work-around or can spot an error in the coding to resolve this!
The code below shows is for the import macro only:
Sub ImportTextFile(FName As String, Sep As String)
Dim RowNdx As Long
Dim ColNdx As Integer
Dim TempVal As Variant
Dim WholeLine As String
Dim Pos As Integer
Dim NextPos As Integer
Dim SaveColNdx As Integer

I'm wondering if I can use external data in an excel spreadsheet without having to import all the data. I basically need a persistent connection with the external data and I want the excel spreadsheet to get the item descriptions by using the item number as the user types in the item number. Writing out the descriptions is killing me and I have all my products in an excel spreadsheet already. I really need someway to link two separate excel files together. One with data and one with user input that searches that data as I type in the item number.

I am trying to import data from an external source file (Excel) into an Excel sheet that will get uploaded into a db accounting system.
The source data varies month to month in the number of rows and need I to import 7 columns.
The upload file will be saved as a text file for the upload.
I tried to use Import External Data, but since the rows vary in size (anywhere from 1 - 2000 rows) I had to create a named range for the entire column. Upon saving this caused all rows beyond the last row of data to have quotes in them which will kill the upload.
Is there a way around this with the Import External Data, or is there a better way through some combination of INDEX, MATCH, INDIRECT or the like?

I am trying to import data from different spreadsheets "about 100" to a principal spreadsheet which will have all the centralized data. I included the principal spreadsheet layout and a sample of two detail spreadsheets. The information that I want to import is from column B 1 to 5 from the detail spreadsheets and put into the principal spreadsheet from row D to G.
Is there any way to import this information automatically, like creating a macro or something similar.

I have a workbook that contains an 'AllData' sheet. That sheet has 6 columns titled "category, keyword, bid, advertisers, search vol, online". Each category has its own worksheet and i want to put the data for each category onto the corresponding worksheet. I am having a difficult time describing this so I have attached a brief example. I have to do this for 145 categories so I would much prefer to do it automatically rather than manually.

I have several of the attached files that come in every week for me to process. I would like to be able to put all of them in a folder and have the highlighted columns copy to one master file and eliminate all the extra blank rows. I also need it to sort by salesman with all of their sales in the different catagories grouped together. I am not sure if this can be done given the way the salesman's names are not on each line with their sales.
