Just wondering if its possible to create a macro which has an inputbox that gives you part of the file name that you would like to open. We have a report that is issued weekly and I'm trying make it so I type in the date of the report in the correct format and it opens the file (saved on my desktop). I don't want to have to go in and edit the macro everyweek to change the file name.

I've been trying to use combo boxes to open, then copy and paste information from specific worksheets the user requests. So far, my approach has been unsuccessful --and the suggestion to simply use the GetOpenFiles procedure was helpful but failed to address more than the "open files" part of my application.

I get pdf files from my UPS carrier and need only a certain part from the text to import into my administration. Sure I can convert the pdf into text and import it into exel that way, save it into xls or csv and you are in but... is there a short cut? Since you can select and copy a part of a pdf file I wonder if it is may be possible to do so within a macro as well no? Is this a crazy question? because I could not find a similar question by searching the forums. May be I was searching for the wrong subject.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that asks the user what pages they would like to print on a particular sheet. In the example below, a button will be assigned to pages 1-5 on a sheet and thus the user has the option of printing from page 1 up to page 5. Any page number outside this range will result in an error message and the user will be asked to re-enter the end page number. This is the code I pulled from this forum and partially modified:
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 800+ files the problem is that the file name ends in 80 different combination so I need to try all of those for each file.
eg: one of the 800 is "109 st no 103 av" the file could be called:
"109 st no 103 av nb1_cleaned.xls" or
"109 st no 103 av nb 1_cleaned.xls" or

"109 st no 103 av sb1_cleaned.xls"

I wrote a code to try all those combinations, the issue lies a space the code adds before _cleaned, how to remove it?.
So the name should be
"109 st no 103 av nb1_cleaned.xls"
but my code is letting it be

Where the variable Ord is the "1" after nb.

I have a Workbook "forecast.xlsx" and several Workbooks which have a individual Number in the Filename (E.g. "3960........xls", "3961.......xls etc.) in the same directory as "forecast.xlsx" + projects"
Now, I would like to browse through "forecast.xlsx" in column H, searching for hyperlinks. In Column H are these Projectnumbers located which are used in the filenames above. Whenever the Cell cointains a hyperlink, following should happen (that far i managed it by myself):
- Store the Cellvalue in a String Variable
- Go to the Directory this.workbook + projects
- browse this folder, searching for a File which contains the stored string in its filename
- open the file
- copy a range
- close file
- This.workbook.Activate
- follow the Hyperlink which has been stored as String before
- paste selection
- continue browsing through column H, looking for the next hyperlink.
I have a VBA which runs bugless, but it copies the wrong range, but to the correct destination.

I'm creating a worksheet that gives a list of part numbers based on the product part code. In most cases I can use the following.
=LOOKUP(O6,{0,1,2,3,4},{"NONE (M25)","SMP-55-001","SMP-55-004","SMP-55-008","SMP-55-014"})
so this gives a part number depending on what number is placed in O6. What I need to do know is look at 2 different cells and for each combination of numbers give a different part number. so if A1 is 2 and B1 is 3 give a certain result.
I have a huge spreadsheet that has part numbers and quantity. I need to find the same part number and sum the quantity of that part number.

I want to have a macro that gets the date I inputed in another cell and changes the date in the formula I displayed above (just changing the date).
i needed a macro that would go through the cells in column A, which is a list of adverstiser and insert a row when the name of the advertiser changed. So the macro needs to compare each cell to the one before and when the values differ, insert a macro. But I need one that will first go through column A, and then once finished with the items in A, go through column B and do the same thing. Can't get the column B to work...

Is there any way to remove the first part of a string of text in a cell and save the second part?
The first part of the text string is a team code that has a variable number of numbers, capital letters and sometimes spaces. The second part of the text string is a variable number of words in a team name that all start with a capital letter and have lower case letters. Every line has a different team code and team name.
The original spreadsheet also has a column with just team code. Is there a way of using this column to "subtract" the team code from the text string to just leave the team name?
Here is the code I'm working on:

I'm trying to write a macro, and the first thing I need it to do is paste a value into the currently selected cell. This value, though, will usually be multiline. So when I try to do it now, it pastes into the selected cell and the cells below it (one for each line of the pasted value). When I'm pasting manually, I avoid this by pressing F2 to edit the cell first, and then pasting. But how can I do this using a macro? Is there a type of paste command that will insert the multiline value from the clipboard into the selected cell?
