I use an excel workbook that contains around 20-30 output tables/ranges and i would to have a macro which will enable me to open a specific word document and paste these tables/ranges from excel into the word document. I am unsure as to how to get excel and word to "talk to each other"???
To make things more difficult i would like to be able to set the paste location in the word document, and ideally i would the copy and paste function to be a normal copy and paste and not a paste special as the tables/rnage in excel have already been formatted correctly and column widths adjusted to fit the margin of the word document.
Currently I select the range in excel, switch to word and paste then continue until all tables/ranges are pasted. Not difficult but as certain calculations change these tables/ranges need to be re-copied and pasted to word which gets frustrating.
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 been looking for a while for a code to copy cells A1:D23 on a sheet and open a Word Document and paste these onto a document and Save this as the name shown in Cell C1. Everything I see to find is over complicating what I need.
I'm trying to copy parts of a worksheet from excel 2003 to word 2003. I've found code that does this alright but I need to be able to re-size the the pasted data to fit the word document. Is there a way to set the properties of the word document like change it to landscape and move the margins etc? Even a simple "reduce the table size to fit the word document". I've included the code i've got already. This code will open up a word document and copy your cells into it but without any useful options. So its ok for a small group of cells.
I have an excel program that is supposed to count word instances in a word document. I can't seem to find the right declaration for a word document. For example to declare a workbook in excel its
Dim wb As Work Book
I've tried
Dim doc As Word.Document 'or Dim doc As Word.Application
as shown in some of the forum posts, but an error user-type not defined keeps displaying.
I want to set up a one step button in an Excel workbook to open up a Word Mailmerge Document that I have already set up complete with Excel data source. I have used this code so far but it's not working. What else do I have to do?
Sub OpenWordMailmergeMasterB() Set appWD = CreateObject("Word.Application") appWD.Visible = True appWD.Documents.Open Filename:="X:Detention filesMail MergeLesley's MailmergeMASTER Interim Report.doc"
'To Run the Mail Merge 'Data source is a range name in Excel workbook called "MailmergeReport":.....................
All I want is to generate a word document with built in word header and footer (header and footer style name is "alphabet") based on the values which i mention in excel(path,word file name and header content.
Is it possible to export Excel cell contents to Word fields in a protected Word document? For example...
What code would be needed to tell Excel to open up, copy and export the contents of A2 in the active sheet of a workbook to "Field 2" in a Word document named "Report 01" and then put the contents of B2 to "Field 2" etc?
Do both applications have to be opened up at the same time or is Excel able to open up Word on its own? Will the macro be able to....
1. Automatically open up the correct Word document?
2. Look ONLY in a certain folder for the "Report 01" Word document?
or
Bring up a "selection" box that allows you to select the document you wish Excel to export it's data to?
3. Close and save the Word Document without any user intervention?
I wasn't sure if I should put this question under "Excel Programing" or "Word Programing"... I am writing this program in excel, but the program references the word object library.
WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO: This program I'm making defines variables based on the values of a couple specfic cells. I want to save a newly created word document that this program generates, using the variables as its name.
I have a list of regions in coloumn a) i need a macro that will create a new sheet within the excel document , and copy the entire row of data to the new sheet.
but it only creates a new sheet (named incidently the same as the region name) for different region names ?
ie.
australia data data data data data data data data australia data data data data data data data data USA data data data data data data data data USA data data data data data data data data USA data data data data data data data data USA data data data data data data data data France data data data data data data data data
for the above info there would only be 3 new sheets created within document .
I have an excel worksheet which has a lot of comments attached to individual cells. Is there a way to convert these comments into a microsft word document along with the contents of the cells to identify where they originated? Also Is it possible to convert just a selection of cells into word document rather than the whole worksheet.
I have a worksheet that is pretty handy right now. I have a print button that automatically sends the doc to print with the specs I want, etc, etc. It has drop down lists, data validations, etc. What I want, and this may be impossible, is when the print button is clicked excel looks at a certain cell and based on the data in that cell, it pulls over a word document and prints that along with it.
In short, the items in the drop down list in the cell I have chosen have a different disclosure that goes with each, and I would like if possbile those to be printed from word...based on which item is picked....along with the spreadsheet when the print button is clicked.
I am working on a project where I am creating analysis using a subroutine in excel/vba and I would like to have the subroutine generate a report that is a word document. I have never used excel/vba to create and modify a word document and don't know how to approach it. I imagine that I will have a template.doc that I can access and save as another file. Does anyone have an example of creating and modify a word document in this manner.
I've just written up an SOP for a reconciliation process. Part of it requires the reader to use some Excel UDFs that I've created. Rather than having someone look for the UDF file on the network, I tried to embed it as an Excel Worksheet Icon within my procedure document. However, when I double-click the icon to launch the add-in, I get the following error message:
"Microsoft Word can't start the application required to open this object. An error occurred and this feature is no longer functioning properly. Would you like to repair this feature now?" This does not happen when I embed a regular Excel workbook, or even a template.
I made some graphs in Excel and then copied them to a Word document. Everything seemed fine, but when I printed the document some graphs had a white square under the numbers and some hadn't. I can't find out where I can change this so that all of them would be without that white background under the numbers:
http://www.shrani.si/f/B/8T/22dMjbNF/img0944.jpg
http://www.shrani.si/f/2Y/bv/1sSyqpAw/img0945.jpg
how can I change that so that all graphs will look the same (without that little squares behind the values).
I have a template document, created in MS Word. I want to generate, from Excel, a new document as would happen when you open the template from windows explorer or whatever ie. Template1.doc as opposed to Template.xlt.
The best I've managed to achieve is the opening of the template.
I'm trying to write an Excel VBA macro that opens a .csv file, selects a range of cells, opens a new, blank Word document, and then pastes the cells into the Word document.
I can open .csv file.
I can open MS Word.
I can select and copy the cells in the .csv file.
I cannot figure out how to paste those cells into Word.
I have an Excel spreadsheet of data that I would like to export into tables in a new word document.
The code below (without the marked section) does this, but I can’t figure out how to create a second table after the first one.
Eventually I will use a For…Next loop to do this many times, but I’m trying to make the problem smaller by just making a second table.
Sub CreateNewWordDoc() ' add a reference to the Word-library Dim wrdApp As Word.Application Dim wrdDoc As Word.Document Dim wrdTable As Word.Table Dim xText Set wrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application") Set wrdDoc = wrdApp.Documents.Add ' create a new document Set wrdRange = wrdDoc.Range wrdApp.Visible = True.........
I would like a macro which copies this formula across the same row.
However, the macro should prompt the user to select a range.
Based on the range selected and in particular the columns in this selected range, I would like the macro to copy the formula only for the columns specified in the selected range.
I need the macro to create a named range based on a last column and row that can change. It won't change once the report is set up, but since this is a template that will be used for hundreds of projects, it needs to be flexible to accomodate a varying numbers of columns or rows
The starting cell will always be A10, but the ending cell can change depending on how many columns and rows are in the table.
Right now, the code I've created is
Sub NamePivotData() Dim LCol As Long Dim LRow As Long Dim RngEnd As Long
[Code].....
I need it to refer to ='Calendar Setup'!$A$10:$*$** where * is the last column in the table and ** is the last row in the table.
