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?

Invoking File Locations Using A Dynamic Variable

Jul 5, 2013

Trying to copy records from one spreadsheet to multiple spreadsheets located in different directorates. Although I can create multiple Macros to address the need, I want to use ONE MACRO that utilizes two variables to represent:

1) The targeted file directory
2) The targeted file name

Items 1) and 2) are stated in two cells within the main spreadsheet and as you can already imagine, these values change IAW the name of the target file.

This is what I am trying to do:

File cell A1 = "C:ORLOAcquisition"
File cell A2 = "target.xlsx"

Basically replacing the code below

ChDir "C:ORLOAcquisition"
Workbooks.Open Filename:= "C:ORLOAcquisition arget.xlsx" , UpdateLinks:=3
with, ChDir ""A1"" Workbooks.Open Filename:= ""A2"" , UpdateLinks:=3

I was able to do it with target-spreadsheets located under the same workbook but my code does not work when trying to activate workbooks located in other directorates in the network.

Replace Multiple File Link Locations

Nov 16, 2006

I have a file where the links to external spreadsheets need to be updated on a monthly basis. There are a couple of hundred cells containing links along the lines of: =IF(WEEKDAY(F2)=1,E11,IF(WEEKDAY(F2)=7,E11,'J:DAILYDaily ReportUKSeptember 2006[daily_file_AsAt_01Sep2006.xls] Stock - Consolidated'!$G$5))

and

=IF(WEEKDAY(F2)=1,E10,IF(WEEKDAY(F2)=7,E10,'J:DailySeptember 2006[Cash Flows -Sep06.xls]1st'!$I$40*-1))

As you can see the month is shown in 3 ways...

September 2006
01Sep2006.xls and
Sep06.xls

I want to be able to enter a month and year and have all the links update...i.e if I type in October 2007 I want the links to change to:...............

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.

Moving Known File To Known Folder?

Sep 23, 2011

I'd like to know if there is any way to move a .wav file located in a local folder to another known local folder?

I do not need to open the file.

I'd like to use a variable for the name of the .wav file if possible. And I'd also like to use a variable for the pathname of both the original folder and the one the file is moving to. (if that makes any difference).

Moving And Deleting Entire Rows Between Tabs In Workbook And Moving Them Back If Needed

Sep 23, 2013

I have an excel work book with 6 tabs. I would like to have Excel move an entire row from one tab to another tab (removing the row and inserting it in the other tab). I.e. Example I have a tab with items that are marked as "Open Actions" so if I were to change the drop down to close. Excel would move that entire row of actions to the tab with the "closed actions" and insert into the next available row. Now if someone were to come back at a later date say no it should be reopened than I would change the drop down to open and excel would move that row back to the open actions tab into next available row. I tried a PIVOT table and no good I played with few macro and not.

Set Locations Using VBA

Dec 5, 2007

I have to manually cut/paste each excel doc which belongs to a specific Store folder, and copy then into their own shared directory, so for example:

Lets say my company has 10 Stores, and I know their online folder locations, the first step I guess would be for me to map the locations of each store, I am not sure what the best way to do this is, would I use the Case select ? to make the set = ?

So for example, Stores 1 - 10.

Set 1 = Dir("Z:Northwest1")
Set 2 = Dir("Z:Northwest2")
Set 3 = Dir("Z:Northwest3")
Set 4 = Dir("Z:Northwest4")
Set 5 = Dir("Z:Northwest5")
Set 6 = Dir("Z:Northwest6")
Set 7 = Dir("Z:Northwest7")
Set 8 = Dir("Z:Northwest8")
Set 9 = Dir("Z:Northwest9")
Set 10 = Dir("Z:Northwest10")

I am not an expert on Case Select, but was thinking:

Select Case myStores
Case Is = 1.......................

Resetting Shape Locations

Apr 12, 2012

I have many spreadsheets that use shapes such as arrows and other symbols. The process for these spreadsheets is to move the shape (arrow for Ex) to indicate a specific location of pain or something like that.

Once the arrow is in position, the spreadsheet is printed to PDF and and a snapshot (in adobe) is "taken" and the picture (with the arrow) is pasted into our application.

My questions is how can I move the shapes back into position when you want to do it all over again.

When I have a few shapes I use

PHP Code:

Set sShape = ActiveSheet.Shapes("Right Arrow 6") 2
    With sShape
       .Top = 220
       .Left = 91
       .Rotation = 20
   End With 

For each shape

But if I have lots of shapes, 50+, it's a bit more cumbersome.

Can I loop through the shapes when I enable the macros to pick up the current positions and use that information when I do a reset (loop back again to move any shape that were touched back to where it was when the spreadsheet was opened?

Currently I have them close the spreadsheet without saving and just reopen.

Same In-cell Dropdown In Two Locations

May 21, 2012

I made an analysis table that shows a list of prices on a certain company. I have a table on one worksheet and I made a chart (from that table) on another worksheet. I'm using an in-cell drop down list on the table worksheet to change to different companies. Is there a way that I can put the same drop down list on the chart worksheet? Essentially, I want to be able to switch the company on either worksheet and have it change on both worksheets. I'd like to keep the chart and table uniform and running together.

Determine Net Displacement Between GPS Locations

Oct 20, 2012

I'm trying to determine the net displacement between GPS locations and am wondering how I can easily code this in Excel. As far as I know, you need to calculate the distance between Point B to Point A, Point C to Point A, Point D to Point A, and so on. The following is the formula that I would use:

A
B
C

X_Coordinate
Y_Coordinate

123456
3700000
Point A

123460
3700010
Point B

Using the following formula (or setup), this is how I would calculate net displacement:

(123460-123456)^2+(3700010-3700000)^2 = (16)^2 + (10)^2 = 256 + 100 = 356

I assume if I want net squared displacement, I would square root this value SQRT(356) = 18.867

If my formula is correct above, I wonder why Excel gives me an answer for the following net displacement formula (same as above just using Excel formula): (A3-A2)^2 + (B3-B2)^2 = 116

Using this same formula, I could incorporate SQRT in as follows: =sqrt(((A3-A2)^2) + ((B3-B2)^2)), which results in 10.77. This value is clearly different than the value above (18.867) thus I wonder if I'm just mis-calculating something in Excel.

Average Formula For Multiple Locations?

HTML Code: 

=100*($I2/AVERAGE(IF($B2=$B$2:$B$38129,$I$2:$I$38129)))

I have the above array formula which I wanted it to calculate the average of all products selling in each store, but it seems to be calculated each?

In column b I have the store number, column I is the sales, I want to average all the sales in column I for each store.

I have probably over complicated?

Verifying A List Of Names And Locations?

Aug 21, 2014

I have 1 list with two columns, where column A is the location (a 3 digit code), and column B is the name (a 4 digit code).

I have a second list with two columns, again column A is the location, and column B is the name.

I want to make sure the locations and names in the second list match what I have in the first list. If they don't match, I somehow want to flag this in a third column.

Turning Locations In Cells Into Values

2) How to deal with the blank cells in the MAX function?

Identify Multiple Locations More Than X Miles Apart

Mar 16, 2014

Distance Calculations Example 1.xlsx

I need quickly identifying multiple locations based on their proximity to an initial location and each subsequent location selected. I have attached an example spreadsheet that is structured in the following manner:

Cell H2 is the 'initial' location that will be used to identify all subsequent locations
Colums A through C are location specific details including latitude and longitude of all 450 possible locations
Column D is a distance calculation based on the difference betwen the location in column A to the 'initial' location in cell H2
Cell F2 is the necessary minimum distance between locations(in miles)
Cell G2 is the number of locations needed(this will vary)

What I am trying to accomplish is to fill column H with the number of locations specified in cell G2 that are atleast the minimum distance in F2 apart from each other, like drawing virtual circles around the locations on a map.

I am pretty sure this can be done with a Macro, but am not sure if that is the best solution or not. I am a novice Excel user, so even though I don't know the solution, I can already see two issues:

1. Whatever the solution is, the reference in column D will need to change to calculate the distance for each subsequent location instead of staying absolute with cell H2(H3 for second location, H4 for 3rd, etc...)
2. With each selection that is made, any location less than the specified distance in cell G2 should be removed from any future choices for subsequent locations.

Finding Sum When Locations Of Inputs Not Originally Known

Mar 5, 2013

I have a spreadsheet where there are two drop down menus with various options. Based on those two inputs, my spreadsheet calculates a "savings" for each row. Now, I want to have cells that will keep a running total of each combination possible. I tried:

=IF(AND(A2:A37="OKC",C2:C37="AF33"),SUM(G2:G37)) but it didn't work...

A column is where you can enter 1st option
C column is where you can enter 2nd option
G column is where the savings results for those combination of inputs is populated.

I need a cell in say, J column, to sum all numbers from G column, where the combo of "OKC" and "AF33" exist.

Scheduling Staff To Shifts And Locations

Jun 10, 2014

I have 20 staff members that I need to schedule in half day shifts (AM & PM) across three different locations for the month of July.

I want to make sure there is no overlap/duplication for any one staff in a time slot. Nor do I want any one staff member to work an AM and PM shift in the same day.

Ideally, I would also like to avoid back-to-back shifts (e.g., not allow PM on Monday to be scheduled for an AM on Tuesday).

Lastly, I would like to have the number of shifts be be as equitably distributed across all of the staff members as well.

Any way that I can do this in Excel?

Pull Unique Values From 3 Locations

Nov 19, 2006

I would like to create a macro which will look at columns A,B and C. Based on A,B and C, I would like the macro to return only the unique combinations. At the same time, I would like columns D and E to perform a sum.

This is the original sheet:

This is what the sheet will look like once the macro I would like to create is executed.

Check Multiple Locations For Common Numbers

Oct 22, 2008

I am currently trying to automate some excells workbooks that my company uses. The one i'm working on is a listing of all the change orders we have. Unfortunatly there are roughly a 1000 rows, each containing the information for the change- change #, Date opened, part numbers, change description, status, date closed.

Order 0001 - 10/22/08 - 0156, 7251, 9901 - delete bag - closed - [blank] -
Order 0002 - 10/22/08 - 0018, 0612, 0875 - add notes - open - [blank] -

What I want to do is type a part number in, it checks to see if there are any rows that already have that number and have an open status (as apposed to closed) and then tells me where the conflict is. so in the above example if I typed in 0612 it would tell me that number is already in use. I am using excel 2003 if that makes any difference.
