Pass .txt File Text To Variable After Nth Delimiter
Aug 20, 2007
I am having a problem reading from a file. I am working with some old code. I am reading information in from a txt file. The information on the txt file is separated by commas on each line. My question is, how can I read in for example, the third section on the first line. By section I mean...
line 1:
section1, section2, section3, section4, section5
I want to read section3 into a string variable. If anyone can help me please post. I am having the hardest time finding this online.
I am calling a sub that I want to do a SaveCopyAs using a variable as the file name but can't get it to work. The file name displays properly in a message box but when I do a SaveCopyAs it does nothing.
I have a text file, which is been imported to excel sheet. There are 2 fields in the text file. Each field has to be placed in one column. The first field has values with space. Due to this the first field is split into 2 fields and totally 3 columns are imported in the excel sheet. Have set .TextFileSpaceDelimiter=True so that it would split the 2 fields, but since the first field has space in it, it splits into 3 fields. Is their any alternate way to obtain the above?
I am running a macro which ends up showing the save as dialog box. The name is correct (data) and the type is correct (XML files) but no matter what I try the file path is not right. Here is the section of
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set js = fs.CreateTextFile(sDataFile, True, False) Set f = fs.GetFile(sDataFile) sFilePath = f.parentfolder & "" Set f = Nothing
How do I set the file path? I have already seen lots of answers to this but they are based on changing the path permanently or on there being no dialog box already open. I need total automation with the user not being able to see any of the save process.
I have one table in word format and a sheet in excel:
word table: Part # ID 1001 C1,C5 1002 C2~C4,C6-C7 1004 A10
excel sheet : ID Color part # C3 white C1 blue 1001 C2 red A10 black C4 red C5 greed 1001 C6 grey C7 pink
I need to write a script which will take an id in excel sheet , then look up the part number in word table , copy the part number into excel sheet. So the sheet will look like this:
ID Color part # C3 white 1002 C1 blue 1001 C2 red 1002 A10 black 1004 C4 red 1002 C5 greed 1001 C6 grey 1002 C7 pink 1002
at the end, I need to export the sheet as text file with tab as delimiter
The first goes through a directory and opens all the files.. after it opens a given file it goes off into a sub-routine to process the data in that file.
I am trying to create a counter in the first sub-routine and then pass that value into the second sub-routine to tell it to put the values out on the next row down.. so the first time through it puts the values out on row 1, next time it puts them out on row 2, etc.
I have code in a userform that shows another userform with a text box. When the user types text there and presses OK, I want that userform to close (which it does fine), and return back to the original userform (which it does fine), but I want the typed text to be stored in a variable that the code in the original userform can use.
I tried declaring a public variable, "Rresponse1", in each userform's procedure, but that doesn't work. I test for the content of the variable afterward in the original userform and it is empty.
In the original userform I have:
SaveList.Show '(this is the second userform) MsgBox "This is response1: " & Response1 '(to test if the variable is being passed)
In the userform SaveList, in the Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() procedure, I have:
Response1 = SaveList.ListName.Text Application.ScreenUpdating = True MsgBox Response1 '(to test the variable, here it shows the text fine) Unload SaveList
How do I get the Response1 variable to keep its content when control is passed back to the original userform?
I created the following sub to signal when a macro in Module 1 is complete:
Public Sub Done() Dim complete As Boolean complete = True End Sub I placed this just before the end sub in the macro for which I am trying to detect that it has finished executing:
Call Done
End Sub In the Sheet 1 Module, the code fails at the statement:
If complete = True Then The error returned is "Variable not defined." All three subs are declared as Public. Why does the Sheet1 sub not recognize the variable "complete" from the Module 1 macro?
I am trying to pass two variables RARD and CARD from Sheet1 'change selection' subroutine to the 'Set ARD Command button click' subroutine. The variable value remain empty and it gives me a 1004 error when I try to execute this line of code:
[Code] ....
What I am trying to do is put the text value 'ARD' in the cell on sheet1 which was the original cell I clicked on to open the userform2. To do this I click on the 'Set ARD' button on the userform2 which is then suppose to hide the userform2 and put the 'ARD' text in the selected cell on Sheet1.
I have attached the workbook for review : Therapy Tracker - Tester V2.10 - deleted logo.xlsm
is it possible to assign the formula to a variable ? here i am trying to get only the filename excluding the path and assign it to a string variable. but its not working check "strr1" line.
Sub TestReadDataFromWorkbook() ' fills data from a closed workbook in at the active cell Dim tArray As Variant, r As Long, c As Long Dim i As Integer
I have a spreadsheet with about 30 charts on it that I would like to attach a macro to which opens the chart in a form. I've figured out how to do this last part, but am stuck on how to pass a variable to the form code which tells excel which chart to copy. Essentially what I'm doing creating a macro for each chart which would run when that chart is clicked on. This macro is identical for each chart except for the name of the chart being passed.
Sub Chart1_click() ShowChart "Chart 1" End Sub
Sub ShowChart(c As String) frmChart.Show End Sub
In the UserForm_Initialize code located in the userform module, I'd like to call the code which saves and loads the image of the clicked on chart. But here's where I'm stuck. How do I pass c to the code in the form module...e.g, how to pass c to UserForm_Intialize and to ChartZoom? Here's what I have so far...
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize(c As String) ChartZoom c End Sub
Private Sub ChartZoom(c As String)
frmChart.Show
Dim Cht As Chart Set Cht = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(c).chart Dim CName As String CName = ThisWorkbook.Path & "cht.gif" Cht.Export Filename:=CName, FilterName:="GIF" imgCht.PictureSizeMode = fmPictureSizeModeZoom imgCht.Picture = LoadPicture(CName)
I have a macro that when it runs presents a form that gives the user an option to skip the calculations or continue. If they click Skip then it continues the 'Next CE' . My problem is I can't get the Boolean value to pass from the form to the macro. Here is what I have
The main macro
Sub Dividend_MF() For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets( Array("G&I", "Growth")) For Each ce In sh. Range("a5:a" & sh.Range("a65536").End(xlUp).Row) If Not IsEmpty(ce) And Not (IsError(ce.Offset(0, 56))) Then If ce.Offset(0, 56) = "X" Then
I have a code below which need some input from user. This input will also be serve as the input of the subroutine which i am going to call. However, i do not know how to go assign this input to the subrountine which i will be calling, can anybody help ?
For example, the "input" variable will also be served as an input in subroutine test2 ...
I have a macro that nicely select the named range that the active cell is in. I want to chain on to that macro a macro that has a parameter a range with that active selection. I dont see how to "take" the active selection on the worksheet from within the macro and pass it to another. I assume I could change the cellInRange macro to return a range, however I dont yet see how to do that.
This is the code after editing to make it more clear
Public Sub 1() BookA= activeworkbook. name BookB=Application.Workbooks.Add Workbook(BookB).activate End Sub
Public Sub 2() BookB=Activeworkbook.name
With BookB. sheets(1) .range("A1")=BookA.sheets(1).range("B1") End Sub()
At the end of public sub 1, BookB is the active workbook. What I want to do in public sub 2 is to copy some data from BookA to BookB. Unfortunately, when moving from public sub 1 to public sub 2, BookA needs to be defined again. The code above is the code that I use in my add-ins. I figured out for non add-ins code I can define BookA with thisworkbook.name when BookB is active as I before work with BookA. This does not apply for add-ins as thisworkbook will refer to my add-ins code. Is there anyway of keeping definition of BookA is constant from one public sub to another public sub? This is simplified code. In fact, I can't merge public sub 2 with public sub 1 due to some reason which I don't say it here.
I have come up with the following formula to pull sums of data by month. I am using this because it is inconvenient to use the DSUM formula (I can't put all the criteria together in a simple way):
Option Explicit Sub Disney_DumpData() Dim wbBook As Workbook Dim wbNew As Workbook Dim ws As Worksheet Dim wsNew As Worksheet Dim rng As Range Dim rngNew As Range Dim rngUnit As Range Dim rngUnitPaste As Range Dim lngNew As Long Dim Cnt As Integer Application. ScreenUpdating = False Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual Application.DisplayAlerts = False Set wbBook = ThisWorkbook Cnt = 0 'Dump To New File '/Define new workbook Set wbNew = Application.Workbooks.Add.....................
I am trying to pass information that is filled by user in a userform into an excel sheet. Let's say a user would click on a control button in a userform and Macro would ask him what value to store for the first variable. If user clicks one more time then Macro would identify that it was a second click and ask what value to set for a second variable. It is easy to do with limited number of variables, but is it possible that the variable which stores a number of clicks would become a number for variable to store the value?
1 click - a1 = .. 2 click - a2 = .. .... n click - an = ..
I'm just starting to experiment with passing values between workbooks and between modules and so far I've managed to get it working. However, I now can not run the receiving module independently because of the passed value ? Let me explain ...
I use start/end dates within my modules to create date sensitive reports. I have several files (for different departments) and each file has a module called "AbsenceChecker", I have been working on a way to create a Report Master workbook to run and amalgamate the "AbsenceChecker" module from each department.
Sub RunAllLoaders() Dim AbsenceStart As Date, AbsenceEnd As Date Dim PassVar1 As Date, PassVar2 As Date Dim DateStart As Date, DateEnd As Date On Error Resume Next 'start of data validation script continued in private sub.

I'm trying to assign an arabic text to a variable defined in VBA. It is assigned as "?????". I've installed Arabic fonts in my local machine. I'm using Microsoft Office 2003 in the XP environment.
I am using this program in one workbook to capture the datevalue in integer from another workbook which i opened. But the program as it reaches the line x2=Datevalue( Cells(2,14).Value) gives a Type Mismatch error.
Public Sub find_date() Dim x2 As Long
'I am trying to activate the last opened file by using workbooks.count Workbooks(Workbooks.Count).Activate Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(1, 1).Select
x2 = DateValue(Cells(2, 14).Value)
End Sub
Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;btw..the cells(2,14) has a date, formatted in the type of mm/dd/yyyy.
I have tried experimenting with LEFT, RIGHT functions. I want to edit a text string using a delimiter. For example: "NOS|NOS". I have a column of 256 rows of such entries, a name; the pipe; a name. I need to be able to strip out one side or the other using that pipe as the delimiter, leaving only "NOS". With 256 rows of items with this format - the length of the text string will vary.
How do i split some text in range if it does not have a delimiter? I would like to have a comma after each letter/number or have the option to split to individual cells
I know how to use the vba split function with a delimiter but cant figure this out.
