View 2 Replies1) Import from a source spreadsheet
2) Copy and re-arrange fields to a new sheet to be imported by a GIS program (MapInfo).
My issue is with the date fields in the source spreadsheet. I copy these into new columns and explicityl via VBA set the NumberFormat of these cells to be date fields ( ie. .NumberFormat = "DDMMYYYY"). On checking the cells the formatting appears to have been applied to my new spreadsheet. However when I open this spreadsheet (new one I create) MapInfo won't recognises these date fields as dates. It seems them as character strings. If I start with a blank sheet and type dates in and autofill and then open in MapInfo it has no problem recognising these fields as Date and imports correctly.
It seems that the source I am copying from has some hidden formatting or something that is overwriting my typed formatting. Any one had a similar experience or have any ideas about this.
I can't figure out how to delete the attached files that are irrelevant and I can't figure out how to upload new ones. I also don't know how to word what I need to happen
I want the data from everything, starting from row 5 and going to row 100, and not include column B or E.
How do I grab just that data? I have different formulas in each document. This is for invoicing, so the columns with the $ numbers can't be changed and I haven't been able to figure out how to not overwrite them when importing another spreadsheet.
I want to write code so that at the push of a button you can browse and find an ascii file. Select it. and then it will go into the sheet of a excel file that you chose in the code.

Here's a link to what each txt file looks like: MTRP88PF700721.txt
I only need the number next to Posting Journal on line 3 (12686 in this case), the 3 digit number next to Class Total on line 11 (101 in this case), the Extended Cost Final Total and the Extended Retail Final Total (23.77 and 39.30 in this case)
because one of my staff members is currently opening each txt file and typing these figures into a spreadsheet!
I haven't work with Excel for a while. I have a "main" file, with info such as name, address, phone #, etc. and another file with additional info for each person required to, in the end, do a merge. How do i combine the 2 files so that the secondary info plugs in next to the last column in the same order as the "main" file.
View 1 Replies View RelatedEvery week I receive a sheet of data that I need to import into my master spreadsheet. The problem is I have to adjust the data I receive to import it unless there's a better way of doing it. I'm trying to automate both the modification and the importing of this sheet. I've tried to create a macro to modify and import without any success.
To adjust the spreadsheet I receive I need to: delete or find a way to exclude the first 3 rows, the bottom row with data stating "complete" and columns C,D&E from being imported; change font, size, color, bold to match the main spreadsheet in addition to formatting; split data in column A and remove any special characters. Formatting is important because I have to be able to easily remove duplicates. Also, the number of rows in the sheet I receive changes weekly.
I've attached a workbook with sample data. The first sheet is representative of what my master looks like, the second is what I sent and the third what I've been modifying it to and then importing. As stated before, I'd like to have my master automatically update with the sheet I sent, but I'm at a loss having to reformat everything every week before importing. Having the sheet that's sent to me revised before I receive isn't an option. What's the best way to automate this?

I need to import some spreadsheets that are sent to me into a master database spreadsheet. I have attached both below. The complaintstest.xls is the master database and the other is the sheet that will be imported. What I would like to happen is when the macro is run, the user will be able to select the sheet they would like to import through a dialog box. After the sheet is selected the macro will import the cells from the selected sheet into the master database in a particular order. In the master database example on row 2 I have listed the columns from the sheet to be imported in the corresponding column on the database sheet. This will macro will be run a couple of times a week so the macro will have to find the next empty row to start the import on.
View 14 Replies View RelatedIn spreadsheet attached, column F is populated with file names. I need VB script to import content of each respective file into corresponding cell in column E.
I've got over 25k of records and the same amount of txt files that I need to insert into cells. I have found this script :
VB:
Sub MikeMaster()
Dim x As Integer
Dim temp
Dim i As Integer
Dim Drive As String

But need to modify it to do something like this: read cell from column F (Text File) > find file with corresponding name in given folder > Insert content of that text file into corresponding cell in column E (Description) > go to next row and do the same.
Hi everyone,
I've got several Excel files that need to be edited separately.
Once they have been edited, I need to paste the content of each file in a single separate Excel file.
Is there a way to retrieve the content from all the files in a folder, and merge it in a single file?
For example:
3 separate files > File1, File2, File3
Merged file, sheet1
File1
File2
File3
i'd like to be able to import a list of file names from a folder. sounds fairly straight forward to me, but example:
folder a has 10 files in it (let's say PDFs - numbered 1 through 10). I'd like to be able to open the spread sheet, and see the file names in column b. ideally, i'd also like subfolders to be listed, in the next column. but, let's start with just this.
I want to do is import a range from this workbook into the workbook attached. In the attached workbook on I have a Import Form where I can select the relevant workbook. I then want to be able to click import and it then goes to the source workbook and imports to the range specified. The code below is what I have got, the problem I have is that it doesnt recognize the range of data to import.

I want to use VBA button because it will be easier for next time if i want to update my work.
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.
I would require VB help as follows:
I will assume that I have a workbook called "Target.xls" and another workbook called "Source.xls"
1. "Target.xls" workbook has sheets called (S1),(S2),(S3) and (S4), in sheet (S1) there is a button called {Import Data}
2. "Source.xls" workbook has sheets called (S1),(S2),(S3) and (S4), those sheets are identical with the same sheets of the workbook "target.xls".
3. When you press the button {Import Data} in the "Target.xls" workbook the following actions shall happen:
1. A dialog box will open and ask you about the workbook which you want to import data from.
2. You will select a workbook from the list of the hard disk or any drive, supposing you selected "Source.xls" workbook
3. You will prompt a confirmation box to confirm the import action.
4. When you press OK then certain cells (same cells always, e.g. Range a1:c7) from the sheets called (S1),(S2),(S3) & (S4) from the workbook "Source.xls" will be copied (not linked) to the same cells in the workbook "Target.xls".
I have a rather large workbook with around 10 sheets. i want to setup a 'export' button on this workbook that will allow a user to save raw data from this workbook into another excel workbook and an ' import' button that will allow user to import raw data and use the existing formulas/links from this large workbook.
As in sample file, i want to be able to export/import all the cells that are orange in colour (in my actual file, all raw data cells are not actually orange, thought colour coding it would make my problem easier to understand)
I was thinking around these options:
1) Copy and then PasteValues from the large worksheet into another workbook for exporting and same idea for importing
2) For all raw data, copy out all the values and put their corresponding addresses in another excel sheet. e.g. column1: Sheet1!$A$1, column2: value
and import it in by reading the address n value.
I have found code by John Walkenback
I need to adapt it to allow several worksheets to be exported to a workbook .cvs .Then imported back into the original workbook including all blanks.
I have included the Walkenback workbook and a test workbook that I have been playing with.

There are 7 files on the network that everyone updates. These are contact databases for clients, insurance companies, our agents, etc. Any changes that need to be made are made. The first person to open a file will get edit mode, the others will only get read-only mode. I rarely have to edit, so if I'm first then I'll invariably be asked to exit so others can update them. I've tried doing the share workbook, but it's not working. That's not what I'd like to do anyway.
I've made a workbook with 7 different sheets, each tab named after one of the network databases. I'd like for these sheets to automatically update if/when changes are made to the master - but keep my formatting intact. Right now I'm relying on import external data, but that doesn't update. Therefore, I have to delete and re-import every morning, losing all of my formatting. Surely Excel has an easier way to do this?
The databases are highly sensitive information so I can't really attach one - but I will attach a dummy example of what they all look like. Each file is hundreds of rows and maybe 15-20 columns, so the thought of linking each cell is more than I'm looking to do.
I am importing data from an outside excel file to several other files. I requested that the data be refreshed every time I open the file that references the outside excel file. Whenever I have a file open that references the outside excel file, I can only open the outside excel file in a read-only state. Why is this, and is there any way around this issue?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to import data from another closed workbook? I used the macro recorder and it gives me something like this
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='[CASHFLOW.xls]Sheet1'!R66C5"
I don't think this is the best way, since it asks me to update links when I reopen the file.
I am basically after a script that can be run from a persons workbook via an Excel Addin, e.g. they click an "Update" button, and the script imports the Forms and Modules from another workbook that i specify.
I do not however want the data held on the spreadsheet to change, just the Modules & Forms in the VBA project.
