Import CSV To Excel But Filename Changes Daily
Nov 3, 2011
Problem I am having:
I want to import a csv file to an Excel workbook. The csv file name does not change, but the workbook which it is pasted into changes name every day (it has a filename which ends in todays date, and is updated daily).
Using the macro recorder I can get the process to work for today, but when as soon as I update the recipient files name the next day, the macro fails.
Code below:
' Sheets("MORCOM").Select
'Range("A5").Select
'Cells.Select
'Selection.ClearContents
'Range("A1").Select
'Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
[Code] .......

I have an access database where I export a file into excel on a daily basis. The file is saved to a different filename daily because I have added the date to the filename. My question is I have a formatting macro spreadsheet so when I export the file in access it will run the formatting macro in excel to format the sheet appropriately. How do I get the formatting macro to recognize to run if the excel file changes on a daily basis in vba?
This is what I have in the formatting macro:
Sub Auto_Open()
'
' AutoOpen Macro
ChDir "G:SD Forecast and PlanningShortages"
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"G:SD Forecast and PlanningShortagesShopWorkingList10052011.xlsx"
How can I get the formatting macro to run on this file when the date changes constantly in the filename?

referencing a variable during a data import. I have searched the forums here and the web for a couple weeks and attempted enclosing the variable in many different symbols.
Nothing I have tried works. I have also read chip pearsons guide but I was still not able to get it to work.
I am trying to provide a way for the user to input the filename and location in an input box and then use that variable to import the data. It is only one file that is needed.
The message box filename is only included to allow me to verify the text input.
Dim Filename As String
Sheets.Add. Name = "All Data"
Filename = InputBox("Enter Filename: ", "Enter Filename Location")
MsgBox Filename
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"TEXT;Filename", Destination:=Range("A1"))
.Name = "SHOAlarmsJune2-9"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False

Current code is (this parsers all .csv files in the specified folder into a single worksheet):

I have the following scenario:
Cell A1 shows a specific value (pivot table value), but same A1 cell value might change if pivot table is refreshed.
So I am trying to automatically copy A1 value to another cell but I need to keep track of each value when pivot table is refreshed.
I have been researching about =Value formula, but it does not work properly since A1 cell reference will change each time pivot table is refreshed.

I'd like to record a macro that allows me to take the current file "file.csv" and save it as "file.xlsx"
I can't get the variable right (just messing around in VBA to have it get the file name and save it as a different format (csv to xlsx)
I've tried:
Function GetFullName() As String GetFullName = ThisWorkbook.FullName End Function

I have some files with filenames like text-text-text-text.lastname.xlsm. When I go to save the file, Excel keeps removing the period between the last "-text" and "lastname". change the structured filenaming convention? So far, I've noticed that this seems to happen with .xlsm file extensions, but not with .xlsx file extensions.

I find, when performing a 'save as', xl puts in a default filename with a suffix (1), or (2), or (3) and so on, to the existing filename, after I have opened a file from MS Outlook. I had assumed it was because there was already an existing file in the default directory, and so it was creating another version, but no other files with the same name exist in the default directory being saved to, or on the remainder of my computer, so I don't understand why this occurs.

I'm using excel 2010, looking to import a .xls file to a tab from a web query. Herein lies the problem: the .xls file is named based on the current date. So for instance, xLfile03.05.14.xls. Which changes the next day to xLfile03.06.14.xls. This is not a local file but one on microsoft sharepoint. It's ONLY available through sharepoint.

I need excel 2010 to automatically save at 09:30 and 19:45 every day monday-friday. Also need the file name saved to reflect the time and date it was saved - if possible.
My PC locks after 10 minutes of inactivity - unfortunately this has to happen because of where my PC is situated.

I have an excel 2007 file which contain a lot of macros. File size is 100MB. This file is not developed by myself, it's post in the webpage and let the members of the page to download on daily basis.. I've been downloading and using this file for over a year with no problem until this week.
Problem: During opening the file. There is a message box popped up, saying "Excel found unreadable content in filename.xlsm'. do you want to recover the contents of this workbook ? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes." When I click "yes", excel is trying to repair the file. Once it's done, I could see only the contents, however, all the macros are gone. When I copied this very same file and open in other notebooks, everything is working fine...
Assumption: Couple days ago, I was writing/testing macros in other workbooks and also opened this particular file. I might did something stupid which cause this problem...
During the same time, I used to have the same problem with another file. I solved it by copy and open with another PC then copy macros and paste it to the file on my notebook.

I have an excel 2007 script that downloads daily stock data and prices. I do analysis and graph the data.
I would like to keep the download the same, but modify my analysis so as to obtain weekly and/or monthly data.
I am sure this is commonly done, and is not rocket science, but so far I am baffled as to the procedure / algorithm to do this.

I'm using Excel 2007 and am having an issue with grouping/ungrouping fields in pivot tables.
I have 2 separate pivot tables, both from the same named data source, but summarizing different data selections. Both tables include the date field, I am trying to produce both a daily and a monthly table, but whenever I change the grouping/ungrouping of the date field setting on one table, the other table changes to the same grouping.
Is there anyway to have one table with an ungrouped date field and one table with the grouped to month date field?

I want to set up daily charts to monitor various things but Im not sure how best to set up the data in order to do this so it calculates automatically as data is refreshed.
I want to run daily activity data that tells me how many people attend each room per day. the aggregated data would include:
Number of attendances, by room (there are 11 rooms), by day
Each attendance grouped by category of patient (up to 25 categories)
Each attendance by type of attendance (various groups)
How should I set up the data to show these things in a way that it can be linked to a text file and refreshed daily on opening? the data at the moment is in rows per attendance rather than grouped in any way.
I would like the data to have dates and months etc automatically genetared by the attendance date in order to graph the above indicators, as well as a % atttendance in relation to capacity per room etc
simple excel template that I could try to manipulate my data into so I can get started. The data is generates using a transact SQL query and saved as a text file which I wabt to use for the daily stats.

I'm on excel 2010 and I have a small group excel files I open everyday. Most of the files are static in name and location. I've got a macro created to open those files, which works fine with workbooks.open and the file path.
There are two report files I want to incorporate into my macro of workbooks to open. The files are created weekly and the files names have the following format: "Report Name (YYYY-MM-DD).xlsm". I don't want to use the file's last modified date because older files may get edited after the more recent ones are created. The files are also not always created on the same day, so the solution needs to be flexible enough to not refer to a specific day of the week or anything.
Macro open an excel file based on the latest date found in filename.

So I finally got a workaround for importing data from my Web Service to Excel.
It is currently working, but after I have imported the data I see from the Task Manager that Excel keeps using 25% CPU. And it also sometimes lags and mini freezes in Excel.
If I delete the row that was juts imported it immediately goes down to 0% CPU use and the lagg/freezes are gone.

I'm having problem importing a CSv file into Excel. The CSV file is around 4-5k lines.
The layout is similar to this :
H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6
A4, A3, dummy, Dummy, ~,
A4, A3, dummy, "Dummy ,Dummy", ,
A4, A3, dummy, Dummy, +,
A4, A3, dummy, Dummy, -,
A4, A3, dummy, Dummy, "(5 + 4) /4",
Consider that the formula (5 + 4) /4 has a CR and LF between (5+4) and /4
I've tried a few methods to import the files:
Reading the CSV file as a Text File a line at a time but with the CR a LF it get's all messed up
[Code] .....
Tried with Using OLEDB but the Sign + , - and ~ are read a Null
[Code] ....
And Finally tried wit th QueryTable but it does not recognize the Double Quote that precedes the comma so
"Dummy ,Dummy" it's seen as two column values instead of one.
[Code] .....

I have a CSV file which I want to import in excel. There are many text entries after the comma that starts with = and +.
When I imported this csv to excel then excel uses its mathematical logic that and gives a result #Name?
I tried reformatting these cells to treat as Text field only but that did not work.
I would like to maintain these text fields that starts with = and + .

I am trying to import database records into Excel, but i keep getting an error "run-time error 424" on the code below.
It is probably something simple, but i havent tried importing from Access to Excel before.
The code below should clear the data from "Existing" and then copy the data from test.mdb into the same sheet.
The error occurs when opening "Data Source"
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim cnn As New ADODB.Connection
Dim rst As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim dbCommand As New ADODB.Command
RowCount = Worksheets("Existing").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Worksheets("Existing").Range("A2:V" & RowCount).ClearContents
[code]....

I need to plot various data on top of stock charts.
This data could be irregular in date: it could be weekly, or simply random.
To plot this data by itself requires a Scatter Chart.
From what I know so far, you CANNOT DO THIS.
However, I suspect this could be done if I build a Stock Chart from scratch using a Scatter Chart.
Error bars can be used to make the tails, however, I don't know how they built the body bar which has the characteristics of a bar (border, and interior.)
But since I don't really need those two characteristics, I just need a wider error bar line that is provided in the chart edit window. I'm guess through a macro, there are wider line widths assignable.

I would like to extract some text from a word file and transfert it into an excel spreadsheet.
My text is always presented in the same way. First there is a line with some data (see exemple bellow). I have no problem to extract them using the macro bellow even it's not perfect.
My problem is on the main text. I weed to keep the format or at least the different paragraphes as when you copy text in word and past it in the formula bar (or press F2).
Here is an exemple of my word file
Code : XXX1- Abrege : DGS45 - Type : D - ADICAP : PHXT5847
TITRE
Text Paragraph 1

I am familiar with VBA, but this one has me stumped! Basically, I want to have Excel fill out an Aspx form, submit it, and then pull in the data from the html table that the form produces. There are multiple queries it would have to do, so I would want it to loop through until it is done with my list of inputs. I don't even know where to start...
The website I need to pull data from is: [URL]
On the form, there are multiple fields, but the one I am interested in is the "Study Area Code." An example input I would have in this field is "529910." I would have a different sheet in my workbook with all the SACs I need to pull.
My vision for the end result is to have all the data pulled into one sheet.
