Linking Or Master Vs. Copy

Feb 17, 2009

I have a workbook that I use as a master and only 2 people should be allowed to change it. It is locked by a password and if opened by anyone than all others can only see as read-only. What I need to learn how to do is have that master version with its own password and then maybe a copy or shortcut that is read only with its own password and updated (linking??) as changes are made to the master version.

Linking Multiple Workbooks To One Master Workbook

Dec 27, 2012

At our small firm, each staff member keeps a small excel spread sheet on the network that contains their "work in progress." This spreadsheet is roughly six columns wide and roughly twenty lines long.

What I am attempting to do is have one "master" spreadsheet with a tab for each staff member that links their "work in progress" so that partners and managers can easily see how much work each of the fifteen or so staff members have.

I can create fifteen different tabs and fifteen different files on the network and link =[Staff1.xlsx]Sheet1!$A$1:$G$25 =[Staff2.xlsx]Sheet1!$A$1:$G$25 =[Staff3.xlsx]Sheet1!$A$1:$G$25 and so on.

If I make a change to the layout of the work in progress sheet, I have to delete and copy the file fifteen times, then go back through and re-link fifteen tabs to fifteen workbooks in order to keep it uniform.

Linking Cells For Update On One Sheet It Updates My Last "customer Touch" On A Master Sheet

Aug 24, 2009

I am tracking my sales interactions and am trying to link cells so when I update on one sheet it updates my last "customer touch" on a master sheet. Current formula-

On "sheet1" I selected a cell and used this formula... =sheet2!$b$7

The problem is that I want to keep a history of what was in that sheet 2 B7 cell so i insert a row (making B7 move down and become B8) and enter new info into the new b7. if I go back to sheet1 the formula in the selected cell becomes =sheet2!$b$8 I want it to stay to =sheet2!$b$7 no matter what I do... insert rows, delete rows etc...

in short what i am trying to do is have a cell in sheet1 show my last interaction with the customer and keep a history of in sheet2-infiniti.... with the caveat that my last interaction on sheet 2 etc... is listed first (thus the insert row)

How To Copy A Worksheet, WITHOUT Linking It To The Original Workbook?

Sep 27, 2008

A simple one for you, but again my Google skills seem lacking. This must be common practice but until one knows the key combination...

I have created a summary sheet with lots of formulas which analyse other sheets in a workbook. I want to copy this summary sheet to a seperate workbook to use as a template.

Of course, the copying process always links the new (template) sheet to the original workbook it was copied from. How does one copy without forging this link? All I want are the formulas copied across totally unchanged; I really *don't* want to manually edit 50 or so formulas!

Linking Copy Onto Hidden Sheet For Backup

Nov 15, 2012

I have a database (attached) that has data entered into the "Progression" sheet. This data is continually updated, and once each row has a section date, I have a macro that moves the data from "Progression" to the "Complete" sheet (and from there, into a specific month sheet). I AM REALLY CONCERNED with data accidentally getting deleted (especially when/after getting moved to "Complete"). I know that you can link cell values from one worksheet to another, but since my data is continually changing in the Progression and Complete sheets, the linkage wouldn't maintain the correct cell values from day to day. Is there a better approach to creating "backup" data in excel than this linkage option? Preferably something that runs in the background without my input?

An option could be that I move my data from Progression into both the Complete sheet and then a hidden "Master" sheet when I run the macro. If I chose that route, how would I modify my coding to include transferring to the Master sheet as well?

Lastly, a simple linkage between the Master sheet and another sheet in a second workbook should be sufficient as a backup method?

Copy Contents From Child File To Master?

Feb 12, 2014

Basically, the code copy contents from 4 "Child" files to a "Mater" file.

Everything works smoothly but no data is being copied from the "Child" files.

The other thing I've noticed is that if a "Child" file is open, I cannot run the code. Is there a way that even a "Child" file is open, the code can copy it's contents on the background?

Automatically Copy Values To Master Sheet?

Apr 25, 2013

I have a workbook with 8 tabs and one master tab. The 8 tabs are where the user enters information and the master sheet contains all employees from the 8 tabs. All tabs, including the master, have the same columns in the same order. How can I automatically have the information populate to the master tab as information is changed on the tab groups? I had a vlookup on the master sheet going through all of the sheets however it slowed my report down tremendously and caused too much lag.

Copy And Pasting From Multiple Sheets To A Master

Jun 17, 2007

There is a file that contains multiple worksheets. Each worksheet contains a template.
I'm trying to create a macro that will go to each worksheet and gather the information on one line in a master sheet. Then go to the next work sheet and do the same but return the data for that on the next row. And continue to do so until all the worksheets have returned data.
So far I have recorded the macro for the first sheet. How do I get it to now go to the next sheet, do the same thing, but return the data on the next line so it doesn't over write the data from the first sheet?

Copy Specific Worksheet From Multiple Workbooks Into Master

Nov 14, 2008

Objective: use VB to copy the first sheet (tab) from every Excel file in a specific folder to a new sheet/tab (for each) in a master spreadsheet. I will then aggregate this data into a summary table.

Following the advice of an old thread (Access: VBA combining multiple excel files to 1 new sheet), one time for each file in the folder. So with three excel files in the folder, I get 3 new tabs in my master spreadsheet but all are copies of the first tab in the master spreadsheet.

I'm wondering if maybe the code, which was in a post from 5 years ago, needs to be "modernized" for Excel 2007. Thanks for any help.

This is the code I'm using:


Sub Combine()


Fpath = "C: emp2" ' change to suit your directory
Fname = Dir(FilePth & "*.xls")

Do While Fname <> ""
Workbooks.Open Fpath & Fname
Sheets(1).Copy After:=Workbooks("Master.xlsm").Sheets(Workbooks("Master.xlsm").Sheets.Count)
Workbooks(Fname).Close SaveChanges:=False
Fname = Dir
Loop

End Sub
