Macro To Create Worksheet 'xxxx' And List All Worksheets In Workbook
Feb 2, 2009
I am after some code to create a new worksheet called 'xxxx' in my workbook, and then list all the sheets within the workbook (excluding the newly created 'xxxx' sheet.)
I'm using Excel 2010. I have a workbook that has six or seven worksheets in it. Each worksheet has a header row, and then lists of clients at the clinic where I work. The columns are last name, first name, medicaid #, social security #, DOB. We use these lists every month to verify that each client has Medicaid for the month. Therefore, there are also columns with names like April, May, June where we mark yes or no for each client. Some of the worksheets also have information about the clients' guardian, phone number, etc., but not every worksheet has those. (I can't show you the worksheets b/c of federal privacy laws, of course.)
I really, really want a worksheet that's a master list of the data from each of the existing worksheets, and I'd like to keep it synced to the source worksheets. I'd love it if I could also add a column telling me which of the source worksheets the data originally came from.
I've tried a few things to make it happen, but nothing has worked.
I've tried using the Consolidate function built into Excel as well, but that only works with numbers, not text, and it wants to manipulate the numbers instead of just copying them over.
I've found several macros online that should have worked (including one from this site) but that I wasn't able to install to my worksheet. I followed all the steps for installation, and throught it worked, but when I went back to the Excel file to run the macro, the list of available macros remained emptpy.
Is it possible that corporate IT has disabled the ability to install macros? Is there somewhere in Options were I need to go to turn Macros on?
I am currently creating a database which involves using a macro to create new worksheets in the workbook. When the macro is run and a work sheet is being inserted, an input box asks the user for a worksheet name.
As you can imagine, the worksheet does not like it when the worksheet name input by the user, is the same as one already existing and so throws up a 1004 error.
In order to resolve this error I have included an error handling code to request the user to input a differnet worksheet name, as the one previously inserted exists.
My problem: It all works fine until the user types in an existing worksheet name twice, so once initially and again when the error handler has prompted a second attempt. On the second incorrect input a 1004 error warning is displayed.
I would like the error handler to keep repeating until a worksheet name that doesn't exist is inserted by the user. Is this possible?
Im trying to create a document that creates a new workbook when certain functions are selected and have written a macro to assist with this. Basically im working on a comprehensive checklist with all possible scenarios that will need to be tailored for use, so you can create a document with just what is applicable to you and not the whole checklist. I have attached a sample of what i mean, along with clearer descriptors of what the document is designed to do.
How do you automatically list all the worksheets within a workbook? I did some searching and decided to use the following code:
Sub ListWorksheets()
'Lists all the sheet names in the workbook onto the _ first sheet (starting at cell a4)
Dim i As Integer For i = 1 To Worksheets.Count Worksheets(1).Cells(i, 1) = Worksheets(i).Name Next i
End Sub
It would be very useful if I could control the row in which the data is returned. "starting at cell [U]a4[U] seems to be that part of the command, but it still returns in the 1st row.
I need new workbooks based on category name in the below list. Respective sheets should be copied from the existing workbook with items as sheet names. List can be updatable.
Im am trying to create a search marco button that allows me to search in multiple worksheets in one work book. I came across this CODE the first part of it works. It pops open user input box and ask for the word that i would like to search but the this error message pops up Runtime error1004 Method 'range" of object'_Global'failed and i dont know what to do
Private Sub SearchButton_Click() SearchString = InputBox("Enter Search String", "Search") If SearchString = "" Then Exit Sub For Each c In Range(myRange) If InStr(LCase(CStr(c)), LCase(SearchString)) Then
Code that will autofilter my sheet for rows that contain either a 1,2,3, or 4 in Column "Z". Then, create a new workbook for each unique value in column "O" and save that to a folder on my desktop named "Contracts". Next, while still filtered by by "Z" and for every unique value in column "O", filter and name a sheet in the new workbook for each unique value in column "B". Finally, while the main sheet is filtered I need to copy and paste the visible cells (minus header row) from columns C,D,E,F,G,H,S, and U to consecutive columns in the newly created worksheet beginning in cell "A9".
I am using excel to create some contracts for a few partners. Each partner could work with several of my clients and I need to give each partner a personalized contract for each of my clients with which they work.
I hope my description of the problem is not too confusing. If so, let me know and I will try to clarify exactly what I am trying to say.
I have tried to combine some code that I already have but, being a newb with loops, I can't seem to get it to do everything.
I have a table of data with three columns. In the first column I have different values, but they can also repeat. How can I have VB look at my table and for every distinct value in the first column create a sheet with the value name and paste all the data into that same sheet?
I am trying to do payslips. Basically I have one worksheet with about 7 columns. I have a 2nd worksheet that is like a template payslip.Worksheet 1 has hours worked and pay etc.
I want to find a method to loop through worksheet 1 and using worksheet 2 as a template create more worksheets and have the values come from worksheet 1 in the new worksheets.
I have the below code, I want to end up with values in column 'A', and a hard coded value in column 'B' for each row in column 'A'. But, I'm ending up with the hard coded value just in the first row of column 'B'. In other words, I want to repeat a value and copy it down column 'B' the same number of times that there are values in column 'A'. Here is what I am working with so far that is producing just the value in the first row of column 'B' -
Private Sub dispnames() Dim b As Integer Dim r As Integer Dim sh As Worksheet
I'm simply trying to take for example cell A1 from multiple sheets and list them vertically on a master sheet. When you drag it down it does not alter the sheet number, that just stays static.
I have a single worksheet containing data in columns A-J. I need to Copy all cells to a new work sheet when the value in column A changes. The worksheet should be named the value of column A. I have found thread 656226, but am unable to modify to work.
I have file contains two worksheets. 1st worksheet named "list" and the 2nd one named "Template". I have a range in WS "List" let say a1:d20 that contains names. This range is not fix, it might be more or less. I need creating new worksheet using worksheet "Template" for the new sheets in the mentioned range as follow:
"Create new worksheet for each name in this range."
List is not unique, some names are duplicated. If the name repeated, create only one. Use worksheet template for each new worksheet created.
I have a list of names in column A, and want to automatically create worksheets within this same workbook based on the list.
List of values: Dairy NI Dairy SI Sheep and Beef Equine Sports Turf Water Industry Horticulture Services Production Horticulture Other Agriculture
Therefore, a macro or coding to automatically create 9 spreadsheets named as per this list.... My list is approximately 50+ hence inquiring if there is an easier way!
I have around 40 to 50 worksheets in a workbook. Is there a quick way of listing the names of all the worksheets in a single worksheet instead of typing the sheet names one by one?
I have a workbook that is tracking part-time faculty appointments. Names and appointment details are entered on the first worksheet ("Entry"). I have another worksheet that pulls data from Entry to generate a summary of the salary for each appointment. Right now, this worksheet is called "Template" that needs to be copied and renamed for each appointment entered.
So, Entry could have up to 56 columns of data entered. There are nearly 100 rows of information for each entry (portrait-style for ease of printing). Columns A and B are information and will not have any entries. Column C is the starting point for the entry of appointments. Cell C5 will have the first appointment Name.
What I want is to create a macro that will copy the Template worksheet as many times as there are names entered from C5 and beyond (D5, E5, F5, etc.) When it creates each new worksheet, I want it to rename the new worksheet with the contents of row 5. For example, if "Smith, J." (without the quotes) is entered in C5, I want a copy of the worksheet Template called Smith, J.
The renaming of the sheet is important because I have a cell in Template that pulls the worksheet name, which is then referenced by cells in Template to pull the information pertaining to that appointment.
What I have seen here on Mr.Excel is a macro to rename a worksheet based on a specified cell, and I've seen something that looks like it created new worksheets, but I haven't seen the two put together like I'm looking for. I am also not that adept at the VBA, so I haven't really been able to figure out how to cobble it together myself.
To summarize: - I have two worksheets: Entry and Template - Names are entered into cells (C5, D5, E5, F5, etc.) on Entry - I need to copy Template as many times as Names are entered and rename each new copy with that Name (also, new sheets should be generated at the end (right) of the current list of worksheets) - The whole process can be activated by a button on Entry
I have a function that counts my worksheets and I reference that to a cell so another macro that creates a new worksheet will be named +1 numerically. My problem is I need it to anchor on "MISLC" and count to the end of the workbook. Or start on the last sheet and count back to "MISLC"
VB: Function Sheets() Sheets = Worksheets("MISLC").Index - 1 End Function
I am trying to figure out how to create a drop down list on one page of a workbook with the list of items for the drop down list located on a separate worksheet within the same workbook.
I have a workbook with one spreadsheet with a list of items on it (sheet1/ingredients) and the rest of the worksheets would have the drop down list of items from sheet1/ingredients.
I have been trying to use the validation method with no luck - I just can't seem to get the source path right.
If possible I would also like the drop down list of ingredients to be self updating - the ability to continue to add items to the list and show up in the drop down lists.
When the value in the drop down window is selected I would really like / need to have the data populated in the rows to the right of the drop down window.
While asking is there any sort of auto complete so that one can start typing in the box and the ingredients that start with those letters show up to select from? (Such as if type EVA or EVAP --- then all words starting with EVA or EVAP appear instead of the entire list?)
I have a spreadsheet which has all the names of trips from a warehouse, the day that they operate (1,2,3 etc) and the job line allocated to each trip. It looks something like that:
A B C DAYTRIPCUST
I would like to create a macro that will be creating 7 new workbooks and then in those workbooks as many sheets as the trips. In these sheets, the customers should be displayed.
How do I write it? I could not find how to have a "dynamic choice" in the macro. I.e. not to have the criteria as "1", "trips1" but to choose from the range of inputs that are available.
I'm attempting to add a variable number of worksheets (dependant on the number of entries in an existing list), then rename those sheets to the name of the entries in that list. i.e.
LIST A B C With the list above, i'd want 3 new sheets added, one named 'A', one named 'B' and one named 'C'.
The trouble i'm having is that because the number of entries/sheets varies, i don't want to refer to 'Sheet1' 'Sheet2' etc. to rename them.
***Additional Info*** the first record in the list is always "W4" on sheet "Data"
Below is where i've got to so far (however, i'm pretty new to this so it's almost certainly not all that efficient!)
I have a workbook (see attach) That has 2 worksheets. (LOAD DATA AND SKIP) What I would like to do is have VBA that automatically filters for each of the names in column A, creates a new workbook naming the workbook as the filtered name (ex D Fowler) and current date and then copy in all info based off filtered data from columns A thru Y Then save and close for each of the names in column A.
I am working on this estimating template. To be used on Excel 97, 2000 and XP systems.
I have a few issues i am unable to resolve.
There are 2 of the worksheets (Short Quote and Stores Req) which individually need to have a button on them so i can create a new workbook as an exact coy of that sheet. but with just the values and not the formulas.
Also i am unsure on the macro on the workbook currently( as i dont know how to do macros) i dont know what it does?
I have a table that lists names, eligibility and # of people. That is just one worksheet. I have a total of 30 worksheets in that workbook. The column with the names is completely filled out. I entered a number in the eligibility and # of people columns and Excel copied all three cells (name, eligibility and # of people) to the same cells on all of the worksheets. I have no formula in any of the cells, nor do I have anything linked.
I have created an appointment schedule spreadsheet. Once I get the spreadsheet running smoothly, I would like to create a worksheet for every day of the year that we are open.
I have decided to have one main folder with 26 subfolders in it. In each of those 26 subfolders, there will be one workbook with 12 worksheets in it. That will be two weeks worth of appointments as we are open Mon-Sat. Of course I want to name the worksheet tabs at the bottom of the workbook according to the appropriate calendar date. Then there is also a cell at the top of each page that also has the date, the same as the date on the tab. Just wondering if there is a simple way to create a macro to rename all these worksheet tabs, or if I have to physically open up each workbook, and rename all the worksheet tabs according to the calendar date. Then once the worksheet tab is named, can you make it automatically put the same date into Cell A1?
1. Create a new worksheet when data is entered into a cell (ie. entered text "ACC2013" into cell A5)
2. Rename that worksheet to correspond to the data in the cell (ie. change worksheet name from sheet2 to "ACC2013")
3. Create a hyperlink between cell A5 and sheet2
I'd like for this macro to loop through a range of cells so I don't have to have a long code. Let's say my data range is from A5:A23. If this requires multiple macros that is fine.
I have a workbook which contains a list of data on the first worksheet. I need for a macro to copy the name in each row,along with its data in that row and paste it into the corresponding locations on a template located on another worksheet. It would then save the file using the date (col. a) , then the words " Scorecard for" and then the name (col. b), then loop for each row until it reaches the end of the list.
I located this code here here.However I dont know how to modify it to fit my needs. I dont have 2 separate categories for two score cards in column b. It would all run off one scorecard and each row of data.
I have a spreadsheet called contacts which is as it says, I have another sheet called project management, I want to have a drop down list which refers back to the contacts spreadsheet, it this possible as they are two different files?
