Import From File One Level Up With Variable Name

Mar 11, 2007

I wish to import data from another workbook which will always be one directory level up from the target workbook. The problem is that the source workbook's name will change but it can always have the first four characters the same, ie, List_Dublin, List_Kildare, etc.

Save A Module Level Variable

Jul 20, 2006

I would like to save a module level variable but do not know how to do it. I have tried using the public key word. If I put it in the sub, I get an error when it tries to compile the sub. If I put it outside of a sub, it just doesn't work. Surely this is something easy.

Getting Data From MDB File Protected With User Level Permissions?

Aug 30, 2013

I need to get the data from an MDB file. No problems normally but in this case the MDB is protected with a workgroup file (MDW) from the old user level permissions that was available in Access.

Is it it possible to get data from the Data ribbon from a protected file or do I need to resort to vba?

Locate CSV File With Open File Msgbox And Import Columns From CSV To Worksheet

Oct 28, 2011

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):

ABCDE1Name MSISDN Date Location MapLink 2M. Younus Safi "923***550577" "2011-10-07 20:36:18" "ACB Tower Badragah Chakwal. Badraga" "http://asdf.com" 3M. Younus Safi "923***550577" "2011-10-07 19:36:26" "ACB Tower Badragah Chakwal. Badraga" "http://asdf.com" 4M. Younus Safi "923***550577" "2011-10-07 16:39:58" "ACB Tower Badragah Chakwal. Badraga" "http://asdf.com" 5M. Younus Safi "923***550577" "2011-10-07 15:37:23" "ACB Tower Badragah Chakwal. Badraga" "http://asdf.com" 6M. Younus Safi "923***550577" "2011-10-07 14:37:05" "ACB Tower Badragah Chakwal. Badraga" "http://asdf.com"

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...

Import Text File Into File Where Rows Exceed Excel Row Limit

Jun 3, 2009

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.

Import Variable From Another Function Into Subroutine?

Jan 19, 2014

In these lines of code I am adding hyperlinks to cells in a row. It shows my steps recorded but since there are some 4,000 cells I need a macro to do it automagically. The target cells are in sequential worksheets but in each case follow the sane pattern (i.e. P2, H3, X3, D4, etc.). Could I capture this routine for each sheet by the sub for each? If so how?

Range("B2").Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'Max tree base'!P2", TextToDisplay:="'Max tree base'!P2"
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'Max tree base'!H3", TextToDisplay:="'Max tree base'!H3"

Using Manual Filename Variable To Import Data

Aug 18, 2006

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

Conditional Copying - Variable Ranges - Sprint Cell Phone Usage Import

Nov 30, 2008

I am working on a project to import cellular phone usage data from Sprint into a workbook.

All cells in Column A are blank. Column B contains 1 instance of the cell phone account #, followed by dates of calls made, which continues until the next cell phone account # appears, and it’s calls made. The # of calls made obviously varies per account #.

The dates are in date format. The cell phone account # is in text format and is formatted with blue fill.

I need to copy the cell phone account # into column A for each line that has a date value in ColumnB, but the value copied must change when it reaches the next cell phone account #, so that the calls are matched up with the cell phone account # and can be imported into SQL.

Acct #

Import CSV File To Excel

Jun 14, 2013

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?

Macro To Import .DAT File

Dec 20, 2006

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.

Import A .bas File Into A Specified Workbook

Jan 9, 2007

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.

File Has Too Many Columns For Import

Jan 29, 2008

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?

Sorting By Variable File Instead Of Specific Named File?

I have starred the section out so you don't have to focus on the rest of the code. Initally I ask for the file to be opened using WeeklyFN, would I need to use it again somehow ?
