Macro To Check Data From Word Documents Against Excel Spreadsheet?
Jun 20, 2013
Basically I have manually generated word documents based on a spreadsheet. Now, I need to countercheck the contents of the word documents with another spreadsheet i.e. make sure the courses in the word document for a particular student is same as that reflected on the spread sheet. Is it possible to write a macro for this? I'm a beginner and I'm waaay out of my depth. I have attached sample documents and spreadsheets.
The link to the documents are as follows: Macro to check data from Word documents against an excel spread sheet
I have about 600 Word Documents that contains information about clients. Each Word document file name is the name of the client. Example. Tom Smith. I wanted to be able to highlight all 600 word documents and paste them into Excel, so that I can press Ctrl-F to find what ever name it is I'm looking for, then click the name and the word document open. Is this possible?
How I can merge multiple word documents based on checkboxes selected on Excel.
Specifically, I have some 75 checkboxes found on Column F with linked cells on Column G (for example, checkbox1 place on Cell F1 linked to Cell G1). Each of the checkboxes have a corresponding Word document (containing text and tables about 1 to 4 pages in length). Based on what checkboxes are selected, I'd like to have those corresponding Word documents merge together and create an entirely new Word file (for sake of order, the datapoints from each selected Word document should be placed at the beginning of a new page in the new file).
The user will eventually name and save the new file on their own.
I'm not familiar with the required code as well as where it should be placed (whether on the excel file that contains the checkboxes, on the individual word documents that are eligible to be merged, or parsed out on all files).
How would I modify the below code to extract all of this data from multiple files? I have about a 1000 files that I need to extract all of the data from to manipulate in Excel.
Code: Sub ImportWordTable() Dim wdDoc As Object Dim wdFileName As Variant Dim TableNo As Integer 'table number in WordDim iRow As Long '
I want to pull data from my excel file (using VBA) into Ms Word. I created a template in Word and wrote a macro to do this, it worked, however, anytime a new row is inserted or deleted in my excel spreadsheet my macro produces wrong results in my Ms Word template because the cell position has shifted, thereby producing the wrong result. How do i make it that my result remain the same when new row is added to my spreadsheet.
Example: Excel row1: vicky 528 row2: sam 532 row3: john 092 row4: Own 211 word template: 092
This is what happen next:
Excel (New row added) Macro: ThisDocument.ScreenedPatients.Caption = wb.Sheets("CSAs").Cells(16, 1)
row1: pat 542 row2: vicky 528 row3: sam 532 row4: john 092 row5: Own 211 resulting Word template(running macro): word template: 532
But I want John to automatically go on the Word template without going into macro to change it all the time when a new row is added.
I have a word template that gives a popup when started for the user to fill out. At present this is okay, but it is hard to maintain. So what I want is to be able to add all needed information in Excel - since our tools have the possibility to export my needed info to this.
I have a spreadsheet in Excel 2010 named 'Input TR'. This info I want in the popup macro in word. When choosing name from a dropdown menu - I want Excel to give me the choices instead of having it in the coded macro. After I have choosen the name - I want the product belonging for this name in the 'Product/Service:' dropdown menu, e.g Test 1 will give the value 1...5. (I will only be able to choose one of them)
Today - everything is coded in the word2010 macro, and thus difficult to maintain.
I need to generate a microsoft word document from the data encoded in my excel spreadsheet. I am currently using MS office 2007.
in the Excel Spreadsheet from columns C to F "a) b) c) d)" was not typed but in the word document it automatically appears before the choices encoded in excel. Another thing is that some of the choices typed in the excel spreadsheet are in bold font and I want it to be generated in word document with the bold font as well.
By the way I am planning to use this technique to create a 100 item multiple choice exam for my students as I find using EXCEL to generate the document a lot easier than creating the test manually in WORD.
Some of my Excel files work perfectly in terms of undo/redo, while others simply cannot use that feature. I took a stroll through the internet looking for the answer, but the issues that I found seemed to point to the application losing its ability, which was resolved with a registry edit/update/change. I don't think that's the case here because I CAN undo is SOME documents.
After some investigation with my problem documents I have found that THIS Macro is the one thing all my undo-free documents have in common: [URL]
I need a little assistance opening a Word file via an Excel macro. The two files are linked and upon opening, the Word file asks if the links should be updated. I need this to automatically be "Yes" everytime the file is opened.
Below code is for splliting text file into multiple excel worksheet. I want to modify it to splitting text file into different msword documents in folder. Is it possible to change the code
Sub LargeFileImport()
'Dimension Variables Dim ResultStr As String Dim FileName As String Dim FileNum As Integer Dim Counter As Double 'Ask User for File's Name FileName = InputBox("Please enter the Text File's name, e.g. test.txt")
I have data in a single Excel worksheet, single tab, columns A:C.
I want to move that data into Word.
The format in Word: Contents of A1 Contents of B1 Contents of C1 Blank Line Contents of A2 Contents of B2 Contents of C2 Blank Line etc, etc, etc, etc....for all rows in Excel.
Currently I am going back and forth between an excel document and a word document cutting and pasting values from the excel spreadsheet into tables in word. The task is a regular occurance therefore I wish to create a Macro that can automate this procedure. Both the excel and word documents are fixed templates therefore once a Macro is created it can be applied to all future work of similar nature.
Each table in the word document contains 6 rows of values in a single column. The excel data is arranged in a table that is 6 rows by x number of columns (how ever many sets of values there are for the particular job) therefore x determines how many tables must exist in the word document. I move between the excel and word document cutting and pasting each column into each table. This is not so time consuming if x=10 however on occasion x=100+ and it does take time.
I have a macro set up in Excel that formats and deletes rows matching a citeria. Once the macro runs I then manually copy the data across into Word. I would like to automate this.
I would like the macro to copy over any cells containing data iinto a new word document. I also have standard text that I would like to include at the beginning and end of the word document. With the excel data being placed in the centre.
I have searched the web and tried a couple of macros with no luck. All the macros state "' requires a reference to the Word Object library: ' in the VBE select Tools, References and check the Microsoft Word X.X object library"
I am unsure how to reference this - but I have checked and found that the object library ticked is Microsoft Word 11.0 Object Library.
I have a word docx embedded within my spreadsheet .
Both are on Office 2010 versions and I have named the embedded word doc
docx = CCPBlank (named range) sheet = Support Data
I want to open the word doc from within the spreadsheet from a user form I already have created for other module calls.
Any simple VBA code to open the embedded docx?
I have looked a previous posts and not sure they are suitable. I have embedded the docx as I want to ensure only that empty version is opened each time. It also means I only have to send one file (xlsm).
I have put together a booking spreadsheet which uses a UserForm. see attached worksheet. When you start the UserForm and select a name, date, number of nights, and then 'Add', the data is added to the worksheet.
1. My first problems is that when I select the 'Cancel' button on the Userform, I would like the spreadsheet to automatically save under C:My Documents. And also save the file as 'Marketing_DDMMYYYY.xls' as todays date.
2. My second problem is that the 'Leaving Data' column sometimes shows the leaving date in American format (MM/DD/YYYY), and sometimes English format (DD/MM/YYYY). How can I make this always use English format?
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 a spreadsheet that I have variable data in and I want to transfer specific parts of the workbook into a Word doc.
Not a problem with the Excel part, I can select each and every cell that I want, copy them and then...
Recording a macro hasn't done the trick as the code I have only copies and doesn't paste. I know I can edit the code to open Word but the problem is that when in Word, the data needs to go to very specific places, some of it goes in the header, most goes in the main body, I can't see how this could be done as there are no cell refs as in Excel!
is it possible to paste to say halfway in a sentence, in a macro?
I am having problems opening Excel documents on first try. If I double click a excel doc icon it will start excel, hang for about a minute and a half then just display a excel blank doc. If I then go back to the original doc icon with excel still open and double click it again the document appears.
I am creating an order checklist in Excel. I want it that if the sales rep clicks on a certain field that a macro will populate the form that is needed. If the rep does not click on that box then the certain form will not be populated. Is this possible?
I have used MS Office Excel 2003 for many years without difficulty in XP. Suddenly I find I can't open many of my old documents. I get a message,"Microsoft Office (InfoPath2003) cannot open (the following file, etc.) A second message says, "The form contains XML that is not parsed: An invalid character was found in the content. Line 0, Position 0" Then I get the message "MS Office is not currently set as default." I complete the instructions that follow and it is now corrected but I continue to get the same error messages.
I have MS Office 2010 Home Edition. Is there a way to make 2 different Excel docs show up on 2 different monitors at the same time (one on each, of course)? (I have a PC and 2 displays total.)
I have two files, a workbook and a document, and both are macro-enabled files. The workbook is my main file for my project and the document is my template. The workbook is basically my database with vba program that populate data to Word document. My word document is a template that has macros saved in a module. Aside from populating the data, workbook also create formfields on to the document and assign macro (ExitMacro).
However, i'm getting Run-time error (4210): Bad parameter message when i try to assign the macro to formfields. I noticed that this happened when the macro was saved in the module of the document. The workbook program works fine if the document macro was saved in Normal.dot, which i don't want to do.
I am trying to build a word document from an excel macro (with some success) and I am running into some issues with excel not understanding some of the word macro commands. An excellent example of this is when I am trying to insert a page break as seen in the below code snippet:
'open word and create a new document Dim wdApp As Object Set wdApp = CreateObject("Word.application") wdApp.documents.Add
'put some text into the document wdApp.Selection.typetext Text:="Document title" wdApp.Selection.TypeParagraph 'insert a page break wdApp.Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdPageBreak
I know the insert break command works fine because I can get it to work within a word macro. When trying to get excel to run it in word is another story. I get the following error message:
run-time error '9118': Parameter value was out of acctable range
This macro, enabled in Excel, is part of a chain of macros and will open Word, run the mail merge, save and close Excel. However, there is a macro in Word that I need to run but don't know how to activate it. Is there a code that I am missing that can be added to the end of the macro included?
VB: Sub Mailmerge() Dim wd As Object Dim wdocSource As Object [code].....
I have a large macro where it looks into 50 documents and pulls out a value from a specific cell.
I dont have any problem with the coding for this but was wondering if it is possible to add another line of coding so that once it has copied the cell value the documents then close.
Currently when I run the macro, it leaves all 50 documents open once it has taken all the cell values and pasted them into my "Master Document".
Creating a macro that updates and copies part of a worksheet in Excel 2003 and pastes it in MS Word. The sheet I have is a sheet that updates some prices etc and after it updates I usually select a square (part of the sheet), press CTRL+C to copy it and paste it as a picture (paste special ) in word. Is there a way to automate the process?
I am thinking a macro that updates the sheet, copies and pastes iit on word??
I have a very indepth spreadsheet at work. We also have a form that was typed up in word that uses some of the information from the spreadsheet. I was wondering if there is a way to have the information from the spreadsheet autofill the form that is in word?
I would like to extract some text from a word file and transfert it into an excel spreadsheet. My text is always presented in the same way. First there is a line with some data (see exemple bellow). I have no problem to extract them using the macro bellow even it's not perfect.
My problem is on the main text. I weed to keep the format or at least the different paragraphes as when you copy text in word and past it in the formula bar (or press F2).
Here is an exemple of my word file
Code : XXX1- Abrege : DGS45 - Type : D - ADICAP : PHXT5847
