I have about 120 .txt files with Columns A Code of Users[/b], Columns B Number of Conto and Columns C-K with stings to be imported, like Numbers into one .xls file .
(see part of examples down and Attachment Red marked)
ABCDEFGHJK.........
Files have names V1.xls, v2.xls ...V120.xls. It have been requested to imported only certain rows e.g. Rows:
02178;5171;untill 02178;5175; Columns C-K, including Columns A i B
&Rows only 02178;5179; same Columns C-K, including Columns A i B
Each Cells from C-K should be importing to same Sheets .xls files. Note: String to be converting to Number After importing datas from one files should have take new datas from anothe files, same rows and columns, one under another and Calculating Sums.
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 macro which imports data from a mainframe dump text file and performs 'Text to Columns' on the imported data so that formula in the spreadsheet can act on the data. The code works perfectly well when I use it, but if a different user logs on and performs exactly the same mainframe dump and import macro the Text to Columns action splits the raw data in a different way and the result is that the split renders the formulae useless.
I've experimented a little and for some reason it appears that the 'Field Info' parameters which are produced when the Text to Columns function is recorded in a macro differ between users even though the raw data is exactly the same.
The task given was to import selected info from complicated text file and record into excel.
Here is the simple way of showing the txt format (consist of 2 records for example): ================================================= Proxy Id 123 MO ABC ================================================= GID_Group TAX8200 Account 0 (INTRA) loadSharingCandidate 0 (FALSE) RelationType 0 (TRUE) Offset 0 Priority 2
How can i have the output as per attachement? I am not good in importing text files. Shouldi use something call ADO? or what is the most easiest way for me to start?
I was able to import some text from a PDF to excel. My dilemma is that the text is now one long row with CODE in column A then its description in Column B...the next entry has a Code in column C with its description in column D...etc...down the line.
I need Column 1 to be all the codes with description in column B thus allowing Vlookups.
Here is sample:
A B C D E F G H I J AC Araucanian AD Adangme AE Afroasiatic AF Afrikaans AH Amharic
I use text to columns everyday at work. Each report that I insert is in the exact same formatting and spacing. So, I open the text file, and manually enter line breaks each time. Is there a way to import text into an already broken up table? Or a way to open a file and it recognizes where to break up the lines without me having to manually click them in each time?
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 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 imported data from textfile reports generated from a dBase system with the following Sub ImportData() ......... End Sub
The problem I have now is that during the operations on the date collumns (G-K) Excel has converted the date to dd/mm/yyyy format, just as I wanted - but has for instance sometimes interpreted the date 10/06/2005 (10 Jun 2005) correctly and sometimes as 06/10/2005 - with no consistent logic I can discern.
I can't get hold again of the source data (the reports) and would need to somehow correct the dates.
The data is historical booking information of a Tour-operator. Therefore there are some hints that would allow me to check if a date makes sense or not. In each row is a start-and an end date in collumns D & E, which would need to be checked for correctness. The following may giv you an idea what I am babbling about: .....
I need to be able to open or import a csv file and have the data be seen as text, not numbers. I can export programming from a phone system as a csv file, modify it and import it back into the phone system. some fields such as "seconds" are in the format 00. Excel sees it as a number and converts it to 0, which causes an error when I try to import again.
I have tried changing the csv to txt and copying it to a blank worksheet and then recording a macro using text to columns, but each export can be laid out differently, so a fixed array doesn't work. there can be over 100 columns so doing it manually and changing each column to text can be quite tedius.
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 trying to write a Macro that will alow me to choose a text file to important but bypass the Import Text Wizard when doing so. I used the record macro function to get this
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.
I am trying to figure out a problem. So far without any results. As an Intern at a company, every week I receive a .txt which I have to import and reformat in Excel. Every week this means several hours of work, so I decided to see if this process could get automated. Or at least partially. I was wondering if any of you could give me a hint how to do this, or where to start. Attached you will find the raw .txt data and the format it should get in Excel.
I am trying to import a range from a txt file that is not opened. It would be in cell AM2 if opened in excel, or it would be the 38th tab of the 2nd row.
I have it working by opening the file copying the cell and pasting into the destination cell. but I have this looped for each text file in a folder. this takes a very long time.
How can this be done faster? I have been trying to figure out how to use For input as ... but haven't been able to grasp how to manipulate the code.
I need 3 columns - Title - HD - Channel. If no value for HD, the field would be blank.
Data looks like this in txt file: > A&E HD 265 > ABC Family HD 311 > Altitude Sports and Entertainment HD 681 > American Movie Classics (AMC) 254 > Animal Planet HD 282 > BBC America 264 > BET Jazz 330 > BYU TV 374 > Big Ten Network HD 220 > Black Entertainment Television (BET) 329 > Bloomberg Television 353 > Boomerang 298
Needs to look like this in Excel > Should look like: > A&E HD 265 > ABC Family HD 311 > Altitude Sports and Entertainment HD 681 > American Movie Classics (AMC) 254 > Animal Planet HD 282 > BBC America 264
I 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?
I have a software application that imports audio files and writes information about these files to text files. I'm trying to write and Excel/VBA application that will parse and import the data contained in these files. find a sample of one of these files attached. The big hurdle I am facing is I cannot figure out how to parse this file - the delimiter keeps changing as throughout the file (see example below):
I have this text file that gets sent to me, and i want to be able to re-organize the horible set up (see Import tab) into the proper format (see Reorganized tab) using Macros. There are many variables, such as the number of part numbers, the number of problems can all vary. As well as the number of claims. I don't even know where to begin. See attached file as a sample.
I found this question from 2004 but it has expired so I could not quote or reply to it. It can be found at Open file search and import text file This was the question:
I'm looking for some code that i can attach to a command bar which allows the user to browse and search for any text file on their C:Drive and then import it. I think i can work out the import using the data import wizard and macro recorder.
Sub DoIt() Application.Dialogs(xlDialogImportTextFile).Show End Sub
The original person said they can work out the import using the wizard, but my users are not tech savvy and therefore I was wondering if I could automate the text file showing up in the excel sheet ( named 'Import') after selecting the text file (instead of going to the wizard). I have attached a sample text file for an example (first row being a header)
I'm back to ask the gods how can I import data from a .txt file every 2 minutes without me actually hitting refresh everytime? Is there some code that will import it or that will refresh it every 2 minutes?
