Variable In Filepath Name

Expected: list separator or )

Update Filepath In A Cell With VBA
Mar 21, 2014I have a 4 cells which contain the followng information, To: Email address, Subject: Text, Body: Text, File Path: File path (as Hyperlink).
I need the file path cell to update automatically when the file is saved somewhere new. This filepath is then used in an email that is generated with code so that the person opening the email can click on the link and open the file.
What I cannot seem to do is to get the file path to be something that updates automatically (which is functionality that I must have)but that also remains as a hyperlink for when it goes in the email (I have an additional problem at the moment which is that the hyperlink does not seem to work in the email - it keeps saying file cannot be found. I don't know if this is something to do with our systems and the way I am referring to the file?!?)
The cell with the file path currently loks like this:-
Cell AX Cell AY
File path file:///E:PART_TIME_LEAVEPART_TIME_PS_LEAVE_RECORD_EMAIL_VERSION_STATUTORY.xlsm

How To Change Filepath Or Dir When Users Have Drive Mapped Differently
Oct 23, 2013I have written code that allows the user to open a file. To make things easier I changed the file path to point directly to the folder where all the needed files will be placed. The problem is everyone that will be using this work book map their drives differently. One user may have it as H, and the other as J. Also users can have the same drive mapped but at two different starting points. Ex: H:DataReportsxxxyyy or H:Reportsxxxxyyy this causes the code to crash. Is there a way do default the path so it will not matter how the drives are mapped?
Here is what I am using so far:
Dim filt As Variant ' flit to be used in the getopenfile. variant is need for its multiple
Dim FilterIndex As Integer
Dim Title As String

Obtain An Interpolate Value For Z, Given A Value For X And A Value For Y
Mar 29, 2009I just have a quick question with regards to two-way interpolation of data.
I have a data table which has x-values, y-values and z-values.
I need to obtain an interpolate value for z, given a value for x and a value for y.
The x value specified is 1.569 and the y value specified is 1.66.
I know how to use the FORECAST formula for a simple x, y table, but I have no idea what to do here when I need to find a z value, given the x and y values.

View 2 Replies View RelatedObtain Cell Formatting
Nov 23, 2006how to obtain what the formatting of a cell is, be it a date, number, custom, currency, etc? I want to acquire the format of the cell in vBA code, in order to display the value exactly as it was formatted in the cell when sending that value to a label on a UserForm or Field on a Microsoft Word form.
Example:
Cell A1 has the value 12/25/2006 formatted with the Date format: "mmmm-dd-yyyy" appearing as December 25, 2006
Cell A2 has the value 9.247 formatted with the Number format: "#.##" appearing as 9.25 to show only two-decimals
Cell A3 has the value 899, formatted with the Custom format: "00000" appearing as 00899 to represent a five-digit US zip code
Cell A4 has the value 1234.56 formatted with the Currency format: I think -"$#,##0.00_);($#,##0.00_)" appearing as $1,234.56
For rownumber = 1 To 4
Entry = Cells(rownumber,1).Value 'gets whatever in cell
Formatting = Cells(rownumber,1).Format 'makes no sense in vBa.

Obtain The Array Values Of A Function
Jan 25, 2013How can I obtain the array values from a function?
For example: Those steps were made by cytop to split a text (btw it works perfecet!!), I just added Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant ... End Function
VB:
Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant
Dim datosColumnaIncio() As Variant
Dim iTemp As Integer
Redim datosColumnaIncio(Len(strSplit) - 1)
For iTemp = 1 To Len(strSplit)
datosColumnaIncio(iTemp - 1) = Mid$(strSplit, iTemp, 1)
Next
End Function
So I want to know if its correct like that:
VB:
Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant
Dim datosColumnaIncio() As Variant
Dim iTemp As Integer
[Code] .....
So when I call the function:
VB : MsgBox splitText("F4")
It throws an error message :s what is wrong or how can I get the array values of a function ???
Sort And Obtain The Lowest Value In A Range
May 1, 2014Excelforum.jpg
What I want to do is in column 5 row 1, I want it to show a value only if all 4 columns, row 1 are filled in. For example in the picture I want to show a blank in the first 8 rows but to start showing a value on the rest of the rows, in this example IPE 240 to be the first value. When it shows this value from this row I want it to obtain the value with the highest percentege inside. For example in this picture the correct value first value to be shown in column 5 will be IPE (84%)
Ive done this code so far: =IF(AND(B256<>"",D256<>"",F256<>"",H256<>""),Here I want it to show the value on the row that has the highest percentege,"")
How To Obtain 6 Numbers In A Cell With No Duplicates
Jan 29, 2014At any rate, for a statistics experiment, I need a way to obtain precisely 6 random, numeric values in a cell, separated by commas, with no duplicates.
For example, if cell A1 contains the following: 7, 12, 14, 7, 14, 3, then I need to remove the duplicate(s) -- in this case, the extra 7 and the extra 14. After the two duplicates are removed, I then would have to replace with two more values (non-duplicates, of course).
Here are the restrictions, in addition to having no duplicate values appear:
* The first 5 values need to be randomly drawn from values between 1 and 75, inclusive.
* The 6th value needs to be randomly drawn from values between 1 and 15 (inclusive).
* It would be nice - but not necessary - to have the first 5 values sorted in ascending order. For example: 7, 12, 14, 29, 70, 3.

Mar 4, 2010I've been trying to get this to function correctly. The following code does pull out a list of all filepaths, but what I want to to is access the properties of the file.
Basically I select a customer from a combo box, and from this the code does a vlookup to determine what folder the reports are stored in. The list is then entered onto the worksheet 'FilesInReportFolder'. There is some commented out code as I've ben trying to come up with a simple way to remove the 'xls' from the end of the string, but din't worry about that.
I've found a website that suggests adding .name to the lineto get the name instead of the path, but what I really want is be able to pull out other details about the file.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHedging Simulation, Solver To Obtain A Maximum Profit
Apr 18, 2007Im setting up a fixed hedging simulation using excel and want to use solver to obtain a maximum profit. I have taken historical stock prices and then predicted future prices using the random walk process. To create the hedge I am using european calls and puts in both long and short positions. The simulation has been set up so that the options are being brought/sold when the historical data ends and then sold/payed when the predicted data finishes.
I am letting solver change the values of the strike of each of the options and also the amount purchased/sold for each of the options too! My constraints are that all the strike prices have to be >= 0, all the amounts of each particular option has to be >= 0 and that profit has to be >= 0. It is worth noting that as well as the values already mentioned, d1 and d2 values are also being calculated on the sheet which are then used to calculate the value of the options being used (using Black-Scholes model), this value is then given a realistic spread value and then 3% is added on as the brokers fee. All of the values mentioned are being taken into consideration when caluclating profit.
