Moving Columns Of Data Into Another File And Saving File With New Filename?

Aug 30, 2013

I was wondering if there is a way to write a macro that will take an excel file that I have called Alldata and then have it copy the first two sheets to a new workbook named something else( FullSparameter_0) and then copy the name of the third and fourth sheet into the new FullSparameter_0 workbook and then copy column A-E from sheet dB Alldata.xls and paste it into the FullSparameter_0.xls workbook in the same dB sheet in the same spot. And do the same thing with the Phase Sheet. i know this sounds confusing, but im really new to the VBA stuff.

I just need 15 different files from the original Alldata.xls that will be named FullSparameter_0, FullSparameter_1, .., FullSparameter_14. but each file will have the same two first sheets, Setup Information and Cal Verification, and the same last two sheet names, dB and Phase, but then in the dB and phase sheets, it will copy over the next four columns of data. so in FullSparameter_0 it will have column A-E from sheet dB in Alldata.xls in the dB sheet in FullSparameter_0 (Same with the Phase Sheets). Then in FullSparameter_1 it will have column A and Columns F,G,H and I (for dB and Phase). In fullSparameter_2 it will have column A and then J,K,L and M. Each FullSparameter_X will have the exact same first two sheets and then the other columns for the last two sheets will be pasted into columns A-E in dB and Phase.

VBA Code To Generate Filename Without Actually Saving File

Jan 23, 2014

I have a file that I want to name based on content in certain cells. I.e. "Q-(text from cell G1)-(text from cell B7)-Date(mm_dd_yy)". I want to be able to specify the location where I save this file each time I try to save it, but I want it to update the file's name if any of the parameters have changed.

I have some code generated that does just about everything right except that it automatically saves a version of the file in the folder where the original is located even though it also brings up the dialog box and allows me to save it in another location.

Basically, I want to fix the code below so that it doesn't save what appears to be a backup file each time. Should I be using some sort of savecopyas?

Code:
Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
'Add the quote # to the header
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = "Quote No. " & Range("G1").Value

[Code].....

Record Filename And Creation Date Of File Used In Another File

Mar 21, 2014

I have a template file that I import data in to, which is then saved with the current date. This works, but I want to automate the import of the data, but ensure I don't duplicate the load.
Therefore, I have a tab 'FileLog' that I record the filename (variable by date) in column A and Creation timestamp in column B.

How do I obtain the filename and creation timestamp of the import data so that they can be entered?

Saving Cell Contents To XML File Saved As Current Workbook File Name

Dec 12, 2012

I have numerous spreadsheets that I need to open and unhide a sheet, that has XML data stored in cell A1. What I need to do is copy that data in cell A1 and paste it into a text document and save that as an XML file saved as the XLS workbook name with a date stamp.

I'm running into many issues, the main issue is the saving as current file name, and the formatting of the text/XML file.

Here is my current code, which doesn't reference the current file name and is just very generic. Once I get the saving as file-name correct and the formatting of the xml file correct, I will work on it a bit more.

Code:
Sub Test()
Dim Rng As Range
Dim wb As Workbook
Set Rng = Range("A1:A2")
Set wb = Workbooks.Add
With wb
Rng.Copy

VBA For Bypassing Replace File Prompt When Saving As A File In Macro

Jul 7, 2008

I am setting up a "save as" macro that saves a file by replacing another file in a folder. Even though the macro has been recorded by approving the replacement (the prompt appears "the file --- already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?"), when I run the macro, I am again prompted about replacing the file. Is it possible to avoid the prompt so the file is automatically saved by replacing the named file?

Saving Multiple Workbooks At One Time/file As A Text File

Mar 16, 2007

found the following code which works for 1 workbook at a time. I am trying to save 7 workbooks at 1 time. Is it possible?

Sub SaveAsCell()
Dim strName As String

On Error Goto InvalidName
strName = Sheet1. Range("V77")
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs strName

It will work on the first sheet but none after that. I need to have each workbook saved with the value in cell V77. Also if that is possible, is it possible to change where the file is saved as well?

Right now I have a master workbook that will open the 7 other workbooks, paste data onto several pages in each workbook. I would like the macro to save the workbooks. The workbooks are named: 02 Tuesday, 03 Wednesday, 04 Thursday, 05 Friday, 06 Saturday, 07 Sunday, 08 Monday.

Saving And Sending A File With Selected Data Only

Jan 2, 2010

I currently have a tab on my spreadsheet named CSV. I have a macro that when called saves the information on that tab and sends it to a folder saved as a CSV file.

However this tab has a lot of information on and i want it so send it with only the information needed at the time. the data i want to send is in Columns A to AM and has rows down to 7392. I only want it to save the file with the data in the rows that has "Export" in Column AQ ignoring any other rows of data that i dont need it to send

I dont want anything to happen to the CSV tab ie delete lines etc as files will be getting sent regulary from that sheet still but with the data constantly updating in different cells

Check Certain Cells For Data Before Saving File

Jul 2, 2008

I have a macro used to save a worksheet, its placed on the DATA sheet.
is there a way so that when the user clicks this button each row 12:200 is checked for empty cells in that row (cells B:P). If a row is found the ref number in column A of each row is placed into next available row in Sheet3

For example :
A12 = 12345
A13 = 6789
A14 = 9876
A15 = 54321

the DATA sheet is populated with various data in rows 12:15
it is found that B12, L12, E14,F14,P15 all have no data, so the values of A12,A14 and A15 are placed into next row in Sheet3

Result in sheet3

A2= 12345 (valuse of A12 in DATA Sheet)
A3= 9876 (value of A14 in DATA Sheet)
A4= 54321 (value of A15 in DATA sheet)

Finally a message box to state there is missing data, for example

"there is missing data from refs 12345 , 9876 , 54321" ie the list pasted into sheet

Removing Data Connections And / Or Query Tables Before Saving File?

Oct 10, 2013

I've tried to remove connections after saves and have been unsuccessful.

HTML Code:
' Delete Additional Connections
' If ActiveWorkbook.Connections.Count > 0 Then
' For i = 1 To ActiveWorkbook.Connections.Count
' ActiveWorkbook.Connections.Item(1).Delete
' Next i
' Else
' MsgBox ActiveWorkbook.Connections.Count
'
' End If

HTML Code:
' Remove named ranges
For Each nm In ActiveWorkbook.Names
nm.Delete
Next nm

I've tried both of these and the Excel file is still attached with XML to the query table. I get an error message saying the format is different then if you click okay it shows its connected to the database still. Is there an aggressive command that will severe all connections before saving? What commands to run to stop this connection after save to another workbook?

Extracting Data From File In Directory And Extracting Filename

Mar 20, 2014

I have a directory folder with an active workbook and another workbook id like to copy data from. The Following macro opens up a file in the same directory, copies some data and pastes it in the active workbook. However with this code I have to specify the filename, 'Data.xlsm' in the example code. I would like it to copy data from the only other workbook in the current directory WITHOUT having to specify the name in the code, so just opening it up no matter what filename it has.

In addition I would like to extract the filename from the workbook im copying data from and paste it into the activewoorkbook in sheet 1 Cell A1. I had a look at getopenfilename function but cant seem to make it work for my purpose.

Copy A File By Specifying A Partial Filename

Oct 7, 2008

I'm attempting to copy some files into an archive folder in the same main folder. These files appear weekly in a folder that contains numerous other files.

Each of these files has a filename such as:

RAH_MRL_TOP_40_(ddmmyy_TIME)

with time being the time that the report was run.

Every week the filename stays the same but the time and date changes. I was hoping to be able to simply use the "Filecopy" command and specify the source file with a "*" after the main file name. However this does not seem to work.

Is there a simple way to do this? (I dont want more than a few lines of coding really as I will be duplicating it for each file and then changing the file name as needed.

Corrupt File: Filename.xls Cannot Be Opened

Apr 18, 2006

I was working on a tax file yesturday, just a long long list of receipts. and the file is password protected. However, I went to open it today, and I get a message that says: "Filename.xls cannot be opened. the file may be read only, or you may be trying to access a read only location. Or, the server the file is located on may not be responding."

It's on my USB Drive. I've tried copying it to my HD so I can play with a copy, but no dice. When I try that, I get another error message, : Cannot copy Filename.xls. The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable. I've tried the various fixed suggested in the excel help files to no avail. I did a search on the forum, but didn't find anything that seemed to apply or help me. The computer I'm trying to open it on has Office 2003, the one I most recently worked on the file on has office XP. Not sure if this was a source of the problem. Doesn't seem like it should be. Hasn't been in the past. I'm not even getting to the dialogue box asking for my password yet.

Dim A Filename: Pass The Name Of File To A Dimmed Value

Apr 17, 2007

I have a file (I'll call it 'Template' where I am extracting data into a new workbook. I refer back to my Template in my code, but I have now come across an issue. I will save the template using different country names, for example, if I am populating it with UK data, I will call it 'Template - UK'. In my code, how do I pass the name of this file to a dimmed value. So If i have the template - Uk open, can I pass the filename onto a dimmed value? So instead of having

Windows("template - UK").Activate

I want to have something along the lines of (although I tried this way but it didn't work):

Dim template As String
template = Application. ActiveWorkbook
Windows(template).Activate

Opening File Paths Where Filename Will Vary

Feb 4, 2014

I'm trying to write code that will open files within a specific folder. However, the end of each filename is going to vary over time to the point that I'll never be able to predict the exact filename.

Is it possible to write something like:

Code:
Set wb = Workbooks.Open "C:\folderfile_filenumberxxxx.xlsx"

Where the "xxxx" signifies the variable element of the file name that could be any four characters? Failing that, is there a similar possible alternative?

Get Full Address Of External File By Specifying Filename And Then Evaluate

Jan 9, 2014

I'm really looking for a way to get the full address of the external file by specifying the file name in a cell and then evaluate the formula. For example,

[Code] .....

is the full address of the source file called 'Source'. My idea is: if I just type the file name 'Source' in a workbook's cell $A$1, and in cell $B$1 I want to make the formula something like:

="C:Users["&$A$1&".xlsx]Sheet1'!$F$1"

This will make my project very impressive with this feature: a user just types the file name to establish the link and evaluate the formula for results.

Open File In Directory With Part Of Filename As String

Mar 11, 2014

I have a Workbook "forecast.xlsx" and several Workbooks which have a individual Number in the Filename (E.g. "3960........xls", "3961.......xls etc.) in the same directory as "forecast.xlsx" + projects"

Now, I would like to browse through "forecast.xlsx" in column H, searching for hyperlinks. In Column H are these Projectnumbers located which are used in the filenames above. Whenever the Cell cointains a hyperlink, following should happen (that far i managed it by myself):

- Store the Cellvalue in a String Variable
- Go to the Directory this.workbook + projects
- browse this folder, searching for a File which contains the stored string in its filename
- open the file
- copy a range
- close file
- This.workbook.Activate
- follow the Hyperlink which has been stored as String before
- paste selection
- continue browsing through column H, looking for the next hyperlink.

I have a VBA which runs bugless, but it copies the wrong range, but to the correct destination.

See the code below:

Sub RESLT_INPUT_ALL()
Dim cell As Object
For Counter = 1 To 1000
Set cell = Worksheets("Projects overview").Cells(Counter, 8)
If cell.Hyperlinks.Count > 0 Then

Export Data From A Template File To Total List File Using Macro In Template File

Dec 18, 2012

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.

Moving Known File To Known Folder?

Moving File Locations

Mar 5, 2010

I have to select about 200 odd files from a folder, and move them to a different folder. The problem is, I have to manually select the 200 files from a list of approx 10,000 (not in order).

I have a list of the filenames (with extension) in an Excel Spreadsheet, and I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically move the files using an Excel macro or something?

example:

File location = C:EBDumped
and I need to move the 200 files to C:EBSent

So I would need to move ONLY the files where the file name is in the Excel list.
The file type (extension) is always the same, but the name (and length of the name) is different.

Is this possible using Windows XP with Excel XP?
