I am using this code to import txt documents, but once the file has been selected and everything, the excel data import wizard shows up... I now would like to get rid of this problem, as well add a standard path to this code, so that I dont always have to start from the desktop and click through tons of folders to get the folder containing my files.

Is there a way to reset the defaults for the text import wizard? I occasionally import a number of files in CSV format, but the wizard defaults to tabs as the means of separating the text. I would like to reset the default on the second page of the wizard to commas, not tabs.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am pasting query results from WinSQL into Excel and use 'Paste' and then, from the little Paste Options icon, 'Use Text Import Wizard'. I choose tab delimited and then reset the decimal separater using the 'Advanced' button on step 3. Since I do this daily I would like to create a macro to do it all for me, namely paste what I have already copied to the clipboard using the appropriate settings. Recording doesn't reflect the steps I executed. How can I call the text import wizard from vba with the clipboard contents as input as opposed to a text file?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am importing a text file that has a lot more than 256 columns. The data will be updated weekly with a different text file. I know how to get past the 256 column limit when importing a text file like this. This link explains the method I am using to import the text file. [url] Since I am importing onto several sheets I get the dialogue box asking me to choose a file to import from for every sheet when I use RefreshAll. The same file that is used by the first sheet will be used by the rest of the sheets. Each sheet just imports a different section of columns from the text file. I want to avoid choosing the same file 30 plus times (once for each sheet) when I click refresh all. Is there a code that would allow me to choose the file for the first sheet, and the other sheets would follow suite?

I'm using the conditional sum wizard to gather the cost of some projects based on two other conditions:
Column 1 is Country
Column 2 is Cost
Column 3 is Category
I have sucessfully used it with several countries but after sucessfully returning the correct resultsa for 5 countries it says "The formula you are building is too long. Please specify fewer conditions" - The amount of conditions is the same as the sum just before it which worked fine!!!
How do I setup a STARTUP WIZARD in EXCEL which allows user can input information, and these information will be stored in the excel worksheet automatically.

I was reinstalling office on a laptop where the hard drive had been replaced. I used the 'save settings, wizard on my desktop and put in the new settings when I reinstalled Office.
This almost worked, but not quite.
Word and PowerPoint seem to be fine but when I reopened Excel I got a number of messages saying that objects could not be loaded because they were not on the machine. Some of this was because Excel was trying to reference add-ins that needed to be reinstalled. I have done that, and there are now fewer messages - but there are still two and I can't get rid of them. One looks for 'objects' the other a single 'object'. There seems no way of finding out what the objects are in question, and what it that Excel is stumbling over. Can I do anything other than abandoning my previous settings and starting again, or else living with having to click twice every time I start excel to get rid of the messages?
I have tried uninstalling Excel and reinstalling but this doesn't help. Perhaps registry changes are the problem...and I hate the registry.

View 8 Replies View Relatedim building a user registration form in excel
now i realy would like to have a search form within my wizard but
i cant get it done.
i have read some other articals relating to this but they dont do
multiple field search (like day of birth and telephone numbers etc)
the form i would like to have should do a search for exmp. by phone number but than also displays all other corresponding user info in the results
the xls file included has some advanced features like automated building of commandbar menu's and has mailing features (currently quoted out) + build in timer events + on close auto save + allot.
I have created several userforms within my excel spreadsheet and i want to be able to click a command button on one form which will then hide the current form and show the next form. In previous spreadsheets i have used the following:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Form1.Hide
Form2.Show
End Sub
However, i am having trouble with this spreadsheet as when i am typing my code after the Form1. the hide command (and show) does not appear in the little pop scroll bar that predicts what command you plan to use. (If i type it regardless then it doesnt execute)
What is even stranger is that if i write a sub routine in a module such as:
Sub Test_Form()
Form1.Hide
Form2.Show
End Sub
And then call it:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Call Test_Form
End Sub
i'm trying to build an app that'll take a user through 5 or 6 steps of a process, with maybe 2-3 substeps in some steps. right now i'm currently using a multipage Userform , but all the tabs make the whole thing look cluttered (even when there's a "Next" button in plain sight). this is especially because i've put each substep as a multipage form under that step's page (multipage forms inside a multipage form). so steps 1-5 would each have their own pages (1-5), then in page 1 you'd have another multipage form (1.a. - 1.c.). is there a way to make it look simpler? i'd like it to look a bit like a Wizard (ie remove all the tabs), but the only way i can think of is to throw a whole heap of controls on one page, and turn them visible/invisible each step of the way.

Then in column H i have a formula that works out if the rate has exceeded a specified base rate, if it has i display Threshold Exceeded and if it hasn’t i display No Action Required.
OK from here i want to count the number of times in the month the Threshold has been exceeded. I can do this by using the countif formula.
Now this is the section i need help on
For a specified time, say a month, i want to count the maximum number of times the Threshold has been exceeded consecutively.
E.g
Threshold Exceeded
Threshold Exceeded
Threshold Exceeded
Threshold Exceeded
Threshold Exceeded
No Action Required
No Action Required
Threshold Exceeded

Result = 5 (max number of consecutive Threshold Exceeded” for a specified time frame)
I am trying to create a line graph and I have 17 rows of data for 17 different employees. There are 18 rows when including the header row.
My data is as follows
Column A - Employee Name
Column B - Month 1 data
Column C - Month 2 data
Column D - Month 3 data
Column E - Month 4 data
Column F - Month 5 data
When I highlight the data and go to the chart wizard, I select "Series in Rows".
However, on the series tab it only brings in the data for 6 employees.
Is there a way to automatically bring in all the data without having to do it manually, or is this a limitation of Excel?
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 have a simple macro importing a .csv data file to a worksheet every 30 minutes.
When the macro runs an Import Text File dialog box displays.
What do I need to do to have the macro run to completion without the dialog box interruption?
Sub RefreshHourlyData()
htime = Now + TimeValue("00:30:00")
Application .OnTime htime, "RefreshHourlyData"
Sheets("H1Updates").Select
Sheets("H1Updates").UsedRange.Select
Selection.QueryTable.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
Range("A1:A1").Select
