Open Workbook Only If Worksheet Exists.

Jul 16, 2006

I have a macro that 'opens all' workbooks in the specified folder. I've copied it over, but need to only open all the wbk's if a specified worksheet exists w/in the wbk..I know there is a dim ws statement that can be used, but how do i use it w/ the current macro?

Option Explicit
Sub recTestOpenAll()
Dim x As Integer
Dim WB As String
Dim wbk As Workbook
For x = 1 To 100
WB = "G:Rule Test FilesREC " & x & ".xls"
On Error Resume Next
Set wbk = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=WB)
On Error Goto 0
If Not wbk Is Nothing Then
End If
Next
End Sub

VBA To Check If Worksheet Exists In Workbook

Nov 8, 2011

I have an array that opens a workbook containing close to 100 worksheets, and copies specific sheet names into there own individual workbooks. The problem I have now, is that I assume the worksheet exists in the workbook, but often times it does not Is there a way to add some sort of "catch" that will 1st verify the worksheet exists instead of my code crashing?

Open Workbook, Open Worksheet

Jun 14, 2008

is it possible to write vb code to open the workbook, scroll through everysheet? extract the values from each worksheet?

let's just say, I only know the workbook name, but not the sheets of the name inside. So the vb code could scroll through every worksheet without knowing the worksheet name, only the workbook name(workbook.xls)

Open Workbook And Move Worksheet Into It

Jan 23, 2008

1. I receive a weekly report 'Over Due Orders_1_14_08.xls' for example. This is sent every Monday and there is a Worksheet on this report called Raw Data.

2. I want to copy Raw Data from that Workbook but the name of the report changes w/ every Monday's date.

Any way of doing this - like just looking for "over due orders" in the Workbook name?

Does OFFSET Cause A Worksheet Change On Workbook Open

Apr 27, 2006

I have a formula that uses the OFFSET function so that subsequent row adds will automatically adjust the formulas. For example, cell A1 contains the value 1 and cell A2 contains the formula:

=offset(A2,-1,0) + 1

When I insert a row above row 2, the formula above adjusts to reference cell A3, which is what I want.

What I am running into is that when the workbook is opened, something in the workbook changes, causing the "Do you want to save the changes..." popup to appear even though all I do is immediately close the workbook.

I have traced the problem to my use of the OFFSET function, as when I change the formula to

=A2-1

and repeat the scenario, the workbook closes without the "save" popup.

Does the OFFSET function cause something to change (no cell values appear to have changed) and is there a way to get around this?

Prompt Open Closed Workbook Then Copy Range And Paste Special Into Open Workbook

Apr 6, 2013

I have created a spreadsheet some time ago and have been asked to improve on it but I'm rusty with VBA.

I have an automated ordering system that saves each sent order as the date e.g "05-04-2013.xls" but the management team want a graph with the data for the last 4 weeks compared. I have created a seperate workbook called "consumables report.xls" which has a column with the products listed followed by columns "Quantity" and "cost" which is repeated for the 4 weeks of the month.

I want to add a button to prompt the user to choose the saved order e.g "05-04-2013.xls" (all orders saved in same directory) to copy and paste the quantity and cost columns (c8,D69) into "consumables report.xls". I got this to work earlier but it would only paste the formulas and not the values. So I need

A prompt to open workbook
Copy range (c8,d69)
Close work sheet
Paste special .value (c8,D69)

I dont care if it has to open the workbook to copy the data as this will only be used once a month so it dosnt matter how slow the code is.

week 1 week 2 week 3 week 4
Product
quantity
cost
quantity
cost
cost
quantity
cost

1
2
3
4
5

Make Workbook Open- Open Correct Month Workbook

Jul 8, 2006

I have Monthly sales sheets that import my cash register data into them. I wanted to set them up to do everything without being there. So I have my task manager open excel at 9:30pm everyday and it runs the macro to import the data into the correct day of the month. Here is the workbook

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim dTime As Date
dTime = Time
If dTime >= TimeValue("9:30 PM") And _
dTime < TimeValue("9:40 PM") Then

Automatically Open New Workbook After 1st Workbook Open 4 Seconds

Nov 6, 2009

I have a presentation that I open from a short-cut. After the "Welcome Page" is opened, I want to open a second workbook in a new instance of Excel after 4 seconds.

I think that I can open the new instance of excel, but I don't know how to activate the macro after 4 seconds.

I'm sure there is a function someplace for this that can be used in a macro.

Then, after the second Workbook is opened, I want the Welcome Page "Workbook" closed, leaving the second Worbook open.

Check Workbook Exists Before Opening

Oct 7, 2007

I know this is my third thread, but I have made sure that I have trawled through other threads before posting. I have created some VBA to collect data from multiple workbooks and paste them into one workbook, Basically the copy and paste script runs according to how many tabs are in the summary workbook because each tab ( sheet) is essentially a condensed version of a workbook. Unfortunately some workbooks I am getting the info from don't have the right data that the copy and paste program is looking for or sometimes the document doesn't exist, is there anyway of telling my VBA to pass this tab if the document doesn't exist instead of throwing up a VBA debug error?

Conditional Check To See If A Worksheet Exists

Jul 3, 2007

I am writing a macro which first needs to look and see if a certain worksheet exists. If it doesn't then I want it to create it but if it does I first want it to delete the sheet then create a blank one with the same name. At trhe moment I have this but it is scrappy and doesn't work very well:

On Error Goto AddSheet
If Sheets("MONEYSHEET").Activate Then Goto Data

AddSheet:
Sheets.Add before:=Sheets("LOOKUPSHEET")
ActiveSheet.Name = "MONEYSHEET"

Data:

It also does not delete the sheet if it already exists, just edits the existing one.

Check If Value Exists In Range For Worksheet Filtering

Nov 3, 2009

I'm looking to use the value from a series of dropdowns (made via data validation lists).

Cell AM5 is a dropdown of named ranges made form a seperate sheet
Cell AO5 is a dropdown that uses '=INDIRECT(AM5) to lookup the values in the named range.

I need cell AO5's value to be used to filter rows in the current worksheet. The current problem is when i use the first dropdown in AM5 it still displays the last value, untill i use the dropdown to select a new one. This value typically will not be found and i do not want my code to execute in these cases.

Test/Check If Shape Exists On Worksheet

Aug 31, 2006

I'm creating a macro to select, modify dimensions and place shapes on a excel sheet. (I'm talking about pictures insered and stocked in a specific sheet of my workbook)
When the users insert a new picture he has to set a name for each of them.
A combobox contain the choices, when an item is selected, the macro identify, size and place the corresponding picture.

But I have a bug if a shape doesn't exist when I try to select it :

Sheets("fiche de controle").Select
'select the sheet with the pictures
ActiveSheet.Shapes(Item_old).Select
'select the shapes "Item_Old"
Item_Old is a variable corresponding to the picture name.

If the user made a typo, I have a bug.
Someone knows how to test if the shapes exist to display a meesage if not ?
Or somethig to avoid this kind of bug ?

Save Workbook To Desktop If File Doesn't Exists

Sep 22, 2009

I'm having a slight problem with this script. What I'm looking to do is before the workbook is closed is check to see if the workbook already exisits on the users desktop if it doesnt then save it to the users desktop. if is does exists then just exit the sub. Here is what I have so far but for some reason it kept displaying the aleart message that the file already exists and wants to save it again.

I just added the displayalerts = false in but the script still does not know that file already exists. So when the file is closed it keeps saying file has been placed on your desktop.

Check If Sheet Exists In Destination Workbook Before Copying

Nov 26, 2012

I am trying to write some code that will copy the worksheets from one workbook (wkbSource) to another (wkbTarget), but I need it to maker sure the worksheets being copied from wkbSource don't already exist in wkbTarget. If they do exist, it just skips and moves to the next worksheet. Here is the code I have already, I thought that by adding the On Error Resume Next to the code it would just skip it, but for some reason it is still copying the first duplicate workbook, then it skips.

Code:
Dim wkbSource As Workbook
Dim wkbTarget As Workbook
Dim WorkbookName As String
WorkbookName = ThisWorkbook.Name

[Code] .........
