Importing Data From Spreadsheet To Spreadsheet
Apr 24, 2006
I need to write a macro that will import data contained in another spreadsheet, but am unsure how to do this. I have several (about 15) spreadsheets that contain data. I need to import key bits of this data into one central spreadsheet that will be used for reporting purposes. I only need 2 cells worth (values) from each source spreadsheet, to be pasted into the destination spreadsheet, into designated cells.
The source spreadsheets are usually closed down and kept on a file server, which my PC has access to. Ideally I want to activate this macro with a control button - i.e. I press the button once and the macro goes off and collects/updates each field with the latest data stored in each of the source spreadsheets.

What I am trying to do is to automate a copy-and-paste situation for literally a few thousand items. I am creating .xml files for a scenery builder library for MS Flight Simulator, and unfortunately there isn't an application specifically for FS scenery that will import the data I have and export it into the format I need. In other words, I need to create a form in Excel into which I can automate the importation of data from text files (such as in the first example below) to populate fields (as in the second example), and later create a new text file from the compiled data.
This is an example of the format of the data I need to import:
C3745848A201404D875D85A92A7CFA0C Shell
C3745848A201404D875D85A92A7CFA0D Texaco
C3745848A201404D875D85A92A7CFA0E TAG HEUER
[Code].....

I have been tasked with streamlining a process to collect data from a specific online website (Web of Science) and import it into an Excel 2010 spreadsheet.
Currently they are going to the website, entering a short number of search parameters and then manually recording the pertinent data from the webpage. They would like to be able to enter a keyword in Excel (which acts as the search item) which then automatically does the rest of the process and provides them with a spreadsheet of the required data.
Is this possible? Perhaps by using Visual Basic code within Excel? I also saw a method that employed SharePoint Server 2010.

I would like to use a vba procedure/procedures to achieve the following:
I have a folder with many Word2003 forms in and I want to save just the data from each form and then import the data into an Excel spreadsheet.
Currently I am opening each .doc file in turn, saving just the data to a new plain text (comma separated file) in a different folder and am unable code searching that folder for all the text files and importing them into the spreadsheet.
I have a two part question to my current approach:
1) I am 99% there with the first part (opening and converting the forms) with the following code having followed advice from another thread but I need Word open and not showing an open document. Is it possible to add code to take care of opening Word in the background and close it again after so the process is fully automated?:

I have two spreadsheets, one gives me the beginning and end of civil twilight as a measure of day vs. night. The spreadsheet has Date/Time in the first column, and the value 45 in the 2nd column when it is night. The second spreadsheet has also 2 columns with date/time and body temperatures of a squirrel. I want to get basic statistics (mean and standard deviation) of the squirrel's nocturnal body temperature, that is for times when it is night (value 45). The tricky part is that Date/Time of both spreadsheets are different. The procedure has to recognize that the date/time of body temperature lies between the beginning and end of the value 45 blocks of the first spreadsheet.
files: twilight sheet squirrel temperature

Often I need to add data from one spreadsheet to the appropriate places on another spreadsheet. For example:
Sheet A has 10,000 records with these fields: id#, name, address, place of employment.
Sheet B has 5,000 records these fields: id#, GPA, college major, type of degree.
Some of the records in B contain information for the same id#'s as sheet A. I want to add this information together so that a Sheet C will have these fields: id#, name, address, place of employment, GPA, college major, type of degree.

We (the board members of an ultimate frisbee team) have an debt workbook that we would like to dispurse amongst our team members as easy as possible. The thing is that we'd like to limit what they are seeing without having to edit the xls-file, only certain columns etc. Ignorance is bliss so to speak.
So my thought was to have some sort of function that exports data on the fly from the excel book to a html / asp / php / xml (or likewise) page everytime a member would access that page. This would give our treasure (as if..) master a lot less work and make it much easier for our members to check their debt. The workbook itself has a couple of worksheets and the ideal would be for us not to split these into seperate workbooks. Is this doable? I read about web queries, but they seem to be directed the other way, from html to xls.

I have a userform that will be a 'work order' for repairs. The ladies in the office can fill out all the blanks that will be entered into the spreadsheet. Each time someone is done, it will plug the information on the next available row on the spreadsheet. Easy enough.
What I need is putting a 'work order number' on the form. I have put numbers (101, 102, 103...) in Column A on the spreadsheet. I would like the form to pull the next available number and put it at the top of the Userform. I want this number to be 'locked' in so the ladies can't change it.
My goal - when the ladies are filling out the form, they can see what 'work order number' has been assigned and can give this number to the maintenance.

I have a large spreadsheet (1000-plus entries) that all have about 10 or 15 columns of information (product title, product number, etc).
I also made a form that I want to use as a master form, where all the titles will not change.
What I am wanting to do is, by going off the product number, when you click it, this pre-made master form will pop up, and all the information that was located on the large spreadsheet for this product number will be inserted where it is designated to be on the master form.
While I could probably do something like this through Access, we need to keep it on Excel, and in the same workbook so that it will automatically update things once I put a new number or input onto the large spreadsheet.

Wondering if there is an easy way to compare 2 spreadsheets that should have identical data on them? The first spreadsheet (Before) has the output data from 'before' a code fix was applied. The second spreadsheet (After) has the output data from 'after' a code fix was applied. The spreadsheets have 7 columns of data and almost 500 rows.
I've already copied the data from the source datasets provided by my IT folks into Notepad (.txt) files and then used Excel to open them as fixed width spreadsheets. I have 1 workbook with 1 spreadsheet with 'before' data. And, I have 1 workbook with 1 spreadsheet 'after' data. And, I have another workbook that contains both worksheets. So, I'm ready to go whenever I get hints of what to do next. :-)
I need to be able to show my client that we did not impact the data with the code fix that was applied. I want to be able to show my client contacts (business folks) an end result via Excel that confirms that I actually compared the 2 sheets and there were no differences. In other words....I can't just show them a formula with '0' as it end result (even tho that's basically what I'm trying to prove).

I have attached a document paralleling a document I am working on. The dollar amount in each spreadsheet represent sales. I have entered in values into the candy, soda, and chips spreadsheet. I have also linked values for candy into the total spreadsheet. My question is can I somehow type something or drag the formula down to populate the other cells in the total spreadsheet?
The idea I am thinking but which I don't know how to implement is to list all the items (as in column G) and list all of the relevant cells (e.g. B1 in the Candy spreadsheet) as in columns H and I (Note that all items will have the same cells but the cells will have different values...e.g. all three items have a cell B1 and B2 in their spreadsheet but these cells contain different values). I then try and fail to create a formula in cell B3 of the Total spreadsheet. I am trying to create a formula of the following nature:
='(Spreadsheet Name From Column G)'!(Cell Name From Columns H and I)
The Second half of the formula doesn't really concern me (i.e. the cell name from column H and I). However I am perplexed as to how to achieve the goal in the first parentheses above.

I have a spreadsheet that I have a lot of macros that are attached to a customized toolbar saved in the same spreadsheet. I saved this is a read-only file. When I open as read-only and run my macros (testing), I save it as another file. When I then open the "template" to do the same thing, the toolbar/buttons now reference the file I previously saved as something else. Help please? Is there a macro that would delete all macros before saving the file as something else?

I have noticed that the basic problem I have is a common one on this forum with different varibles for different people. I have attached a dummy copy of the spreadsheet that I am using.
I need to copy cell information for one spreadsheet to one of 2 other spreadsheets depending on a dropbox condition. The master spreadsheet is the Issues spreadsheet, and depending on whether the user chooses Transferred Complaints or Transferred Offences (in Column K) I need to transfer certain cells to the Complaints or Offences spreadsheets.
The information I need to transfer from Issues is: .....

I have got a spreadsheet with many rows of data. One row is product name and the other is date written. Now I want to calculate how long these entries have been on the log. So lets say I have 10 entries called Pension all with different dates and 10 entries called ISA with different dates. So first I need it to look for all the proucts called "Pension" and then to work out how many are 0-3 weeks old and so on. So i want it to look like this but a formula to work it out for me and to update it automatically.
0-3 Weeks 4-6 Weeks 7-9 Weeks 10 Weeks +
Pension 4 3 3 1
ISA 3 4 1 2
(this does not display very well here but I hope you understand what I mean)
I am using Excel 2003 and I dont think it as a WEEKS function so I will do it in days and then devide by 7.
I know that to look for the product i use
=COUNTIF(H:H,"Pension")
The H:H is because the product is on colum H on my spreadsheet
I know to find the date it is
=TODAY()
So to work out something 3 weeks old it would be
=TODAY()-21

From the attached spreadsheet I need to transfer all the rows where the issue status in column T is either ongoing or open. Now I know how to transfer them over if row 1,2,3 etc was going into row 1,2,3 etc into the new spreadsheet but as not all rows from this sheet is going over I need to now how to transfer data so in the new spreadsheet it just follows down rather than have spaces in it. i.e. if on this sheet I need to transfer data from rows 1, 5, 10, 15 on the new one they go into row 1,2,3,etc

I have been putting together a database of town owned properties. I have about 190 rows with well over 20 columns. Sometimes I need to sort the data in order to find something. However sometimes after sorting the data and not thinking of anything of it, I will open up the file later that day or the next day and I find that most of, or sections of my data are all jumbled up. I then have to re-enter the data to get it to where it should be. I am using Excel 2003.

I created a 10 spreadsheets for 10 companies that include 25 columns of info each and multiple tabs.
I need to create a master spreadsheet, which contains info from all 10 companies but only 10 of the columns are necessary. I want to ensure that if a change is made in the master spreadsheet in one of the columns for company "A", that change is reflected in their personal spreadsheet as well, pretty much syncing info typed in one worksheet to a spot in another.
Is that possible?

Here i am dealing with 2k rows with 30+ columns.

1.Text Box 1 (Reg)
2.Text Box2 (Token Number)
3.Option Button1
4.Option Button2
5.Command Button 1 (OK)
6.Command Button 2 (Cancel)
Option button one is set to default as True,
1.I enter information in to Text Box 1 (e.g. Test1), Option button 1 is True, click OK, the Text Box1 data + the time and date (Now() ) is entered in to the first blank row, (date = column A, Reg = column D & time = column F)
Textbox1 is cleared of data.
2.I enter information in to Text Box 1(Test1) then Text Box 2 (1), Option button 2 is True, click OK, the data in Text Box1 (Test1) is matched with the enters in column D (Test1). If this is a match then the data from Text Box2 is entered in to the same row as Test1 in the following order (token Number = column E & time = column G)
Text boxes1 & TextBox2 are cleared of data.
