Merging Template Changes Into Spreadsheets
Jul 14, 2013
I have a template and several spreadsheets based on this template, and when changes are made to the template they need to be manually merged into each spreadsheet, a very painstaking, time consuming, and error prone process. Changes are mostly added rows, data tables, and macro (coding) changes. Surely there must be a better way of doing this. There must be some way of automating at least part of this process, or so I would think. I know that changes to a workbook can be tracked, but I don't shows changes to code, and I don't know if it is true for templates as well (but I suspect that it is); at least this would show me what changes to the template had been made, but maybe not changes to the code, but this is only a small part of the problem.

What I am trying to do is take the data (all columns) in Spreadsheet 2 and put that data in Spreadsheet 1 with all the companies matching up, how do I do this, is this possible?
I tried using VLOOKUP but I don't know if I was doing it right and I don't even know if it's the right function to use.
In sheet 1, column A I have a list of about 30,000 companies
In sheet 2, column A I have a list of about 10,000 (pulled from sheet 1), I have other info associated with these companies in columns B and C.
Basically I want to take column A, B and C from sheet 2 and match them up with the same companies in sheet 1. So there will be 10,000 matches and 20,000 N/A's. This is how I set up the VLOOKUP but nothing happened.

I have two spreadsheets of part numbers, one with a full list of parts approx 3500 lines and another with the same part numbers (but only approx 1000 lines) but this file also contains sales history. columns shown below
PART NUMBER, PART DESCRIPTION, RETAIL, COST, UNIT OF ISSUE, CURRENT STOCK, YTD SALES, MTD SALES
What i want to do is merge the two files together so the 1000 parts i have sales history for correspond with the same 3500 lines on the other master spreadsheet, so i can then sort them in which ever order i need at the time.

I have three large txt files. All three are the same number of columns but are of a different number of rows. (Each month the number of columns will increase but the 3 source files will still contain an equal number).
Therefore I need to open the first text file, select all data and paste it into my master file.
I then want to open the second txt file and paste all the data at the first empty row of my master file.
I will then open the third txt file and paste all the data at the first empty row of the master file.
Finally I will close the txt files.
I will then have several other amendments to make to the master data file.
So to my problem....
Opening the txt files is fine.
However I want to select all the data in the first txt file but excel gives me an error message. (On the line highlighted in my code). I remember there being a function in VBA that selects all data around a cell, can anyone remember how to do this?
My code so far is:
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:= _
"C:CUSTOMERPass 1.txt" _
, Origin:=xlWindows, StartRow:=1, DataType:=xlDelimited, TextQualifier _
:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=True, Semicolon:= _
False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=False, FieldInfo:= Array(Array _
(1, 1), Array(2, 1), Array(3, 1), Array(4, 1), Array(5, 1), Array(6, 1), Array(7, 1), Array(8 _
, 1), Array(9, 1))
Cells.Select
Selection.Copy
ActiveWindow.WindowState = xlMinimized
Sheets("Data").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste

I have a spreadsheet with names and phone numbers. I have another spreadsheet with similar- but not the same names and not in the same order- with email addresses.
I have pasted all info into one spreadsheet and alphabetised it- it looks a little like this now.... (joe bloggs being an example name)
joe bloggs telephone no
joe bloggs email
Is there a way i can easily merge these two rows keeping the name the same? Otherwise it will take FOREVER!!

I have a spreadsheet with only 80 rows in it and I need data from another spreadsheet with over 200 rows. One of these rows in each spreadsheet contains a matching field (Job #). I only want the 80 matching rows data from the over 200 row sheet.
Is there an easy way to combine these two. Even adding the 80 to the 200+ will be fine as I can just remove the blanks. I can't figure out a way to combine them and match them up.

I have two Spreadsheets on Excel 2003, one provided by a service supplier (i), and one from my own system (ii).
I need a macro attached to spreadsheet ii that looks for data matches between the F column of my spreadsheet, and the C column of the suppliers. Where data matches (i.e. if cell C42 in spreadsheet ii is the same as cell F23 in spreadsheet i) it transfers the contents of the A column of spreadhseet i and places it in the corresponding cell in the C column of spreadsheet ii.
Example 1 : In spreadsheet i cell C20=BN213YD. In spreadhseet ii cell F55=BN213YD. Therefore, the macro takes the contents of cell A20 in spreadsheet i and places it in cell C55 of spreadheet ii
Example 2 : In spreadsheet i Cell C75 = TN142XS. In spreadsheet ii this data is not found. The macro therefore takes no further action.
Basically, the suppliers spreadsheet has less information per row, but more entries overall. My spreadsheet is lacking a lot of suppliers references, but has more comprehensive information elsewhere. Until now i have been doing a manual search of the postcodes between the spreadsheets and rectifying them manually, but this is taking longer and longer as the spreadsheets grow.

I Have a number(30+) of excel files based off of one template. I have since updated the template, thus making the the old ones obsolete. Is there a way to update the older files to use the new template without having to copy and paste the addition's row by row column by column?
None of the additions to the template will change the placement of existing data, nor will it change the data itself. It will however add Values to cells that were previously empty.
Hints, Tricks, or Ideas?

1)
I created a one-sheet template, and a new workbook from that sheet. When in that new workbook I go Insert>Sheet>Other and select the aforementioned one-sheet template, Excel crashes, or if not, it adds the new sheet, but then no longer saves the workbook and starts producing error messages (like: "An unexpected error has ocurred. AutoRecover has been disabled for this session of Excel.").
1a)
Now, the complication is that this is working when I do a model operation with a generic template sheet. So I checked the template that I actually want to form sheets after, and Excel finds no errors, nor does it's name contain any unusual characters. What could Excel prevent from working with a template like this?
2)
How do I edit a template? The only way I can find is to manually find the spot in finder, open, and save with the same name. But: if I do that, the documents basing on that template don't change accordingly. If they're intended not to, the whole template procedure makes no sense. I could then just as well copy a file. — I've been searching for tutorials on that, but google doesn't even return a single result on Excel "edit template". Therefor my very basic question here.

I've attached 2 test files, one is the database master file containing the projects (each row represents a project, unique reference number in column A) and the other is the blank template file i'm hoping to export data into and then save down with the naming convention "column A_column B.xlsx"
Kept the test files simple but would need to modify any code to apply to much larger database consisting of many more fields etc.
Master.xlsx‎

I have a list of invoice #'s on a sheet named "Temp Sheet".
I have a VBA macro that created a new tab for each entry and named it the invoice #. So basically the vba code created a new tab ( based on the number of invoice #'s on my list ), and named each tab an invoice number. So if I had a list of 10 invoice #'s, named S1-S10, the vba code created 10 tabs, named S-1, S-2,. S-3.....
Now to my question.
I have a template sheet I want to copy from ( "Template" ), and select any sheet that starts with "S", and copy/paste this template to.

I have a template file for ordering trafolyte and steel plates. I have added macros to this template file. The existing macros do the following (shortly described):
Macro 1: clears order
Macro 2: update order date + send a read only file to the supplier of plates + save a read only copy of the file into one of three folders acc to info in one of the cells.
It's the Macro 2 I want to edit.
I want to add a "function" which copy a selection of data.column A to N from row 12 to 548 but only the rows where there is a value in column A.
Row 1 to 11 includes standard order info and Macro buttons.
Row 11 includes the heading for order data.
For everytime someone click on the Macro 2 button in the template file, I want the selection to be paste into the first "available" row in a "Total list" file.
The "Total list" file may have to be open (or a function to open, paste selection and then close the "Total list" file may be added)
File and Folder info:
To simplify suggestions, the following file and path info can be used (I can change to the correct later):
Template file name: template_order.xlsm
Template file location: \servershared emplate
Total list file name: total_list.xlsx
Total list file location: \servershared otal
Selection info:
The template file exists of a "general order info area" A1:N10
The column heading for order data is located at A11:N11
The selection to be copied is A12:N550 - But only rows where column A includes data (not empty).
(If the spesific order consists of 14 plates than there will be item no 1-14 in column A and I then I want to copy A12:N25 (row 25 will be item 14).
When I try to use record macro it looks like it only records what's happening in the template file - It doesn't record the pasting in the total list.

I am looking for some tips to merge the 2 rows into 1 row with all data transferred. I have tried the following:-
=IF(MOD(ROW()/2,1)=0,INDEX($B$1:$B$100,ROW()/2),INDEX($A$1:$A$100,INT(ROW()/2)+1))
However, it returns "0" when cell is empty. Your help is greatly appreciated. Attached a file for better understanding.

I collect data from a number of tools for our server and switch info. I don't have a problem merging that data. My problem is trying to get that data into a working format.
-- I have a server that has dual network connections.
-- This data resides in different rows, and each has slightly different data that I need to preserve.
-- I want to merge these two rows into one pre-defined output layout on a separate sheet without loosing any of the data.
Some other things of note. Not all of the servers have duplicate entries, but still want that data on the output sheet as well.
I have attached an example of what I have to work with and what the output sheet that I'm trying to get to looks like.

I have an excel file with the same columns of data for different years (each year's data is in a different sheet). Each of the columns corresponds to a different survey question asked to the same farmers year after year. These farmers have been identified by ID number in the first column and I would like to consolidate the information from all the years into a single sheet.
The problem is that there are many farmers who dropped out of the survey or were added to the survey over the years. So, for example, in year one you may have data for the following ID numbers: 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9 And by year 4 you may have data for the following ID number: 2, 3, 4, 5, 9.
