Looping Through Directory List To Perform Functions On Each File

Dec 3, 2009

I have a directory with over 100 .txt files. I want to open each file, parse the data and copy the data into a new file which has numerous formulas and functions to perform on the data. I have the code for doing all the work, but I have to open each file individually and run the macro. I would like to loop through all the files in the directory to perform the same fuctions. I need the looping code for getting the files from the directory.

File List From Directory

Jul 1, 2013

I have a spreadsheet, where the corresponding invoice number is located in column I.

All the necessary invoices have been scanned in as pdf's in folder Y:FinanceSalesInvoices.

The question is, can a code be written to say in column Z, that a hyperlink be created to that particular invoice. For example, in cell I2, it would have Invoice1, then in cell Z2, it would have a hyperlink of Y:FinanceSalesInvoicesInvoice1.pdf.

List All Files In Directory In An Excel File

Apr 2, 2009

In my search I found several example similar to what I need, but nothing I could adapt to filt my needs, (at least not wim my limited skills).

Here what I need to do:

I have multilple Excel files in a directory. (M:/Archived PO Responses/Domestic). On a daily basis, these files are processed via VBA, and deleted after processing. What I need to do is, prior to processing and deleting these files, create an ongoing log of the filenames in that directory.

Example:

The macro would open an Excel file named "Processed Orders.xls", which is stored on the network drive "M:". It would then append all of the filenames in the directory mentioned above to a sheet named "Processed Orders" in that workbook, below any filenames that already exist.

Looping Files In Directory - VBA

Aug 22, 2013

I wrote the following routine to loop files in folder. I have 4 .xls files in my test folder. This code is only grabbing 1 then exiting. I have used the Dir() loop before with no problems.

Code:
Private Sub GetDataMultipleFiles(ByVal importExt As String, ByVal xFileNum As Integer, ByVal importLoc As String)
Dim Sep As String, myFile As String
Sep = Application.PathSeparator
myFile = Dir(importLoc & Sep & "*" & importExt & "*")
Do While Len(myFile) > 0

Directory Looping Copying And Pasting

May 28, 2008

In my very crude code below....I would like to speed up the coding so by extracting data from some 800 CLOSED workbooks and pasting the data from Non-contiquous cells in an active workbook on one sheet. Can't seem to ge the = Excelmacro4 closed workbooks method to work so I went with opening each workbook, extracting data and then closing each workbook...way too slow.

Question 2. As the loop progresses...I would like to concatenate the text strings copied from the Source books Ranges G4 and G5 as they are pasted into a single cell in the destination workbook. Can't figure out how to either concatenate or xlpaste special in the coding.

Question 3. IF a user has a one of the workbooks OPEN, how do I copy that data as well other than On Error Resume Next?

Dim wbOpen As Workbook
Dim wbDest As Workbook
Dim WS As Worksheet
Dim i As Long
Sub GetdaData()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False

Looping Directory And Pasting To Master Worksheet

Apr 26, 2007

I purchased the book VBA and Macros for excel and it has gotten me pretty far in this code, but I am having difficulty with one code though. I want the Macro to run through a specified directory, and copy the contents of the specified cells (9th row to last row) from each file and paste them in the next available space on my master. Then repeat this process for each file in the file directory. So far, it is successfully going through each file, but it isn't pasting it to my master sheet.

Dim lCount As Long
Dim wbResults As Workbook
Dim wbCodeBook As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim NextRow As Long

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.EnableEvents = False

On Error Resume Next

Set wbCodeBook = ThisWorkbook
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.LookIn = "K:ESAR GroupForecasting"
.FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
.Filename = "*.xls".........................

Extract Newest File From Directory

Jul 21, 2008

I have an excel spreadsheet that has a list of pathways to different folders (ex. Q:TechnicalY001) in each row. I want a macro that will search each of the folders I list in a range of cells and return the most recent file by the Date in the filename:

Example: Cell A1 contains folder path Q:TechnicalY001
Cell A2 contains folder path Q:TechnicalY002

The macro would return the most recent file in Y001 and dump the filename into cell B1. Then it would return the most recent file in Y002 and dump the filename into B2.

After I have all of the most recent filenames, I want to be able to search each of those files for data in certain cells and then dump that data into the spreadsheet. The cells are always going to be the same in each file.

Copy Most Recent File To Another Directory

Sep 11, 2009

I've got this code that will copy data into my worksheet from the most recent .IRP file generated on my C:/ drive. Along with copying the data to my worksheet, I'd like to have a copy of the IRP file copied to a folder on my L:/Drive.

In the code section I've commented out the code that allows the data from the most recent file to be copied to my worksheet. I found code that supposedly will copy a file to a new directory. I want to combine this into my code to allow both to happen. Here's my attempt.

Macro To Erase File On A Directory

Mar 9, 2013

The code bellow allows me to save a copy of the invoice by way of doPDF using invoice number as the name of the pdf to be saved.

Code:

Else
Application.ActivePrinter = "doPDF v7 on DOP7:" 'Selects doPDF to genarate PDF file of invoice.
ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= "E:LusaGenerated InvoicesINV" & Range("L17").Text & ".pdf", _

[Code]...

As there is the need to, should a quotation or an invoice be wrong, to change it. In other words I have code to cancel the invoice as bellow.

Code:

Dim sResponse As String
Dim rFound As Range
sResponse = InputBox("Enter record you want to change." & vbNewLine _& "ATTENTION!

This will change the current record number and will erase record data from saved records sheet.")

If sResponse = "" Then --cancelled or OK with no entry: do nothing or add message
Else
Set rFound = Sheet1.Columns("L").Find(What:=sResponse, LookIn:=xlValues,

[Code]...

The code above simply removes a line on sheet1 to which yet another macro retrieved some info from an invoice such as date, invoice, customer and total.

Now I just realized that when I change an invoice, I will be again when finished, creating another pdf file that already exists.

How can I have the second macro here changed so that it will go to ""E:LusaGenerated InvoicesINV" & Range("L17").Text & ".pdf", _" and delete this pdf file?

List All Files In Directory

Feb 7, 2008

I have created a spreadsheet with VBA code that lists the files in a directory. The code is as follows:

ListFiles = True
Set Sh = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(sFileSheet)
lstAttr = vbNormal + vbReadOnly + vbHidden
lstAttr = lstAttr + vbSystem + vbDirectory
lstAttr = lstAttr + vbArchive

If sDirectory = "" Then
If iColumn = 1 Then
sPath = "C:PensionDataPensionPath" ' Set the path, must end with backslash
Else
sPath = "C:PensionDataWorkBench" ' Set the path, must end with backslash
End If
Else
If Right(sDirectory, 1) <> "" Then
sPath = sDirectory & ""
Else
sPath = sDirectory
End If
End If

sFileName = Dir(sPath, lstAttr) ' Retrieve the first entry.
lDataRow = 1
lRows = 1

This works on my PC and it works on other PCs. However, the one PC that it should and must work on, it does not. There is no file listing created.

I have duplicated the files and the folders on my PC and the files in the directories are listed. However, on that one PC, there is no file listing.
