I have a Workbook containing two worksheets "X" and "FILES". The worksheet "FILES" contains the name of each file in a directory on my desktop "C:UsersOwnerDesktopDATA-X" in cells (A1:A1000) (There are 1000 files in the folder "DATA-X". The worksheet "X" is a blank worksheet.
The following code loops 1000 times, each time importing the "k"th file from the folder "DATA-X" and storing it in the worksheet "X". After each loop, the worksheet "X" gets replaced with the data in the next file from the folder "DATA-X". As the program is running, it can be seen in the task manager that memory is accumulating in the Excel program. In fact, it cannot finish because it will use up all memory by then (I get a message "OUT OF MEMORY").
VB:
Sub MemoryTest()
Dim qt As QueryTable
Dim WSh As Worksheet
Sheets("X").Select
Regarding the Memory Leak problem with ADO, does anyone know of a workaround?
The workaround mentioned on Microsoft's website (http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;Q319998) pertains to using ADO to retrieve a recordset from an Excel worksheet, not from an Access Database.
1) Does anyone know if those workarounds would also address retrieving a recordset from an Access Database?
2) If so, is the "SELECT INTO" workaround effective?
Is this Memory Leak issue relatively minor or only affecting Excel 2000? I'm guessing it must be one of those 2 things since the concensus is ADO is superior to MSQuery..
I'm trying to import data into my sheet with formulae like this in row1(Columns A:I): ='F:Dir[File.xls]Sheet'!A2.
The files I'm importing the data from all have 50.000 rows and 9 columns, so I copy the formulae downward 50.000 times. This generates an error ('Not enough memory'), not surprisingly. I've also tried to do it in steps by way of VBA; first two thousand, copy and paste values, next two thousand etc. But that doesn't work either.
Does anyone know of a solution to this memory problem or a way to work around it (without opening the files with the data in them).
Actually i've downloaded Tracking report of my SPO and this report is on 4-5 csv files (1 file per week). I have to gather data from these 4 files into one Worksheet. I have to do this with command button on my worksheet; with Open file dialogue box (i want to locate the csv files).
CSV files are something like that (I need only first 4 columns):
and my Worksheet is like that (With a command Button):
I want to import first 3 columns of csv file on first 3 columns on my worksheet; leave 2 columns blank and then import the 4th column... now for example i have done importing data from 1st csv file and the data is on 50 rows.. i click the command button again, locate the 2nd csv file.. do the same thing (import 1st 3 columns, 2 blank, then 4th) --from 51st Row-- and so on...
I have a workbook with many spreadsheet named Sheet1, Sheet2 and so on. Each sheet is filled completely upto 65536 rows. This data is being picked up from a CSV file. In this file there are sites with each site there is a assciated set of data. What happens is the data that extracts data does not differntiate between sites and when it reaches to the end of worksheet it splits the data into next sheet. So I am trying to create a macro to check each spreadsheet starting with the last sheet in the work book for example last sheet in the workbook is seven it should go to sheet6 and if there is a blank row after row 64000 it should cut all the rows and move them to sheet7. Then it should goto sheet5 and do the same and keep on doing it until it reaches sheet1.
I recorded setting up a query to get information off our Data Warehouse about a Tracking Number that the user enters into the spreadsheet and got this little piece of gold.
Sub DataDump()
Dim sqlFromText, sqlWhereTxt, sqlSelectTxt Dim qt As QueryTable
For Each qt In Worksheets("DW Data Dump").QueryTables qt.Delete Next qt

The problem is that now when I try to run it I get a general ODBC error and the debugging line that is highlighted is .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=True.
I am having problems getting to work a web query in a VBA macro. The goal is simply to get a value retrieved from a web query into an excel cell.
The below code works well with standard html pages (like replacing the url with www.google.com). However, the page I want to retreive (a query at geonames.org that retreives an altitude value for given lattitude/longitude values) does not contain any HTML headers, but just a number in plain text. In this case the below query does not returns anything. I tried different formating options for the query but up to nownothing works.
I need understanding what is the maximum length of string data type. I read that is 63K characters... but, in my case... maximum value is 253. I don't know why happens this. here is some code from one of my buttons.
Private Sub btn_procesare_Click() Dim intUnit As Integer Dim strBuffer As String Dim contor, var_else, cale, dest, dest_final, masca, filtru, **** As String Dim vntbuf As Variant Dim sql As Variant For i = 0 To Me.ListBox2.ListCount - 1 Application.Worksheets(1). Range("A" & i + 2).Value = Me.ListBox2.List(i, 0) Next...........................
when watch for x, the value is maximum 253 characters. I get error Data Type Mismatch - Error 13 with this.

I am trying to import a file from a notepad to excel. I am trying to copy and paste in to excel. When I paste, all the info is in the same cell, although it looks that there is tabs between columns. Is there a way for me import those numbers into a spread sheet in different columns?......
I have a lot of txt. files you would like to imported automatically via VBA code text file is always the same need only certain data in these two rows which is the red just want this data
it is copied from txt. files in Excel so that I had with the click of a button you obtain all the information and through this button you looking for the folder in which the data next would have 2 lines one would be the computer name of one folder and the user can more This would also be the folder in which the data were computer name to the main folder subfolder, users, and wanted to let me read the particulars of which are in the name of the computer and the user. for example. computer name of the user
I wish to click on a button in a worksheet which then looks in a particular folder on the local drive. Any file with a .xml extension import into the worksheet.
What if 2 or more xml files are present? The xml file filename ends with the date & time the file was generated, eg BPSEvent_10033_Tam_20140116124216
Can a code look for the oldest file to import based on the end of the filenaming format - yyyymmddhhmmss
Code to then delete the last xml file imported would be good too.
I recorded the following macro but it only imports files with a specific name. Can someone change the code to allow it open the specific file loaction where I may choose which .txt file I want to import.
I have several files from different departments that I have to extract sections of data from and compile into one central file for reporting.
I am very new to VBA but would like to set up a button so that I can import data from closed files in different departmental directories. I have recorded a macro and got it to work if the file is open but I can't seem to get it to work if the file is closed.
I would like to have a macro that will allow me to browse to the desired file and import the data into columns. I have the macro working to the point of allowing me to browse, select the file, and pasting the contents into the active sheet.
The things that I need help with are:
1. Getting the data to paste into a specific cell instead of A1. Currently the code is
CELLS.SELECT ACTIVESHEET.PASTE
I would like the data to start in A7.
2. Getting the file parsed into columns. The format of the .DAT file is static and only has 4 columns. Currently when it imports, the entire record (row) all of the data is in the same column. I would like it separated into individual columns if possible.
At work I have a folder full of .bas files containing useful UDF's. At the moment I am the only person in my team that makes use of these files as importing a .bas file is beyond the rest of the team (i.e. then know it contains code so they get scared).
What I'd like to do is create a workbook where they can select one of the files (each file contains a single UDF), maybe see what it does (I put an explanation in the Comments section of the properties for each file) and then have it automatically imported into the workbook of their choice so they can make use of these functions.
My task is to make an excelfile that import data from other excelfiles. These data should then be summarized. There's not always same files. I should be able to add more files.

I am trying to import a text file into an existing worksheet using wild cards (the file name changes because it has time stamp info in it). I would like to be able to import the Heavy Water file even when the time stamp info changes. The code I have so far is:
I've made the mistake of building an online survey without regard for the number of questions and how that might relate to import. (Excel gives the error, "File Not Completely Loaded.") As a result, I have a .csv raw data file which exceeds the number of columns in Excel's upper limit. Would anyone know of a utility that will break that file into sections so it can be manipulated in Excel?
I have imported a tab delimited text file into excel. One of the columns consists of a string of text - a comment section. Within this column, there are periods and for some reason it seems that Excel is treating these periods as row separators. how I can prevent Excel from separating the text into rows?
I am a noob to VBA, and not much of a programmer either. I know how to import a simple text file into excel, but this time I have something more complicated.
