Picking Correct File From Folder

Jul 22, 2006

I need to look at each filename in a particular folder, open the file if the name contains "THO", then modify the file and close it. I know how to open, modify, and close files using VBA. I'm stuck on how to pick one particular file based on the filename. I copied the code below from another thread. It's great for opening all files in the specified directory. Can anyone show me how to modify it so I only open files with "THO" in the name?

Sub OpenWorkbooks()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim dirr As String
Dim I As Long
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
dirr = "C:Documents and SettingsHalldaviDesktopKoen's weekly sample reports"
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.LookIn = dirr
.FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
.SearchSubFolders = False
.Execute
For I = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(.FoundFiles(I))
Next I
End With
End Sub

I have alot of project folders on my harddrive.

Excel 2003 :: Extract Variable Rows Of Cells From Files In A Folder To Existing File In Folder

Mar 15, 2013

I need a macro in a workbook to look at all the files in the same folder that have "*att*.xls" in the name and determine and copy from the range A15:W515 only the rows that have data in at least columns A, C and D. Each file will vary as to how many rows there will be and there are more than the files with "*att*.xls" in the folder. The data will be on the only worksheet in each file and the worksheet is named "G2WAttendee_xls" the data from all the files need to be copied to the file called "Consolidated webinar reports.xls" (I am using Excel 2003) and to a sheet called "Attendance Data" and added to the end of the last paste.

At the start of the macro the current file "Consolidated webinar report.xls" should be saved to a sub folder of the current directory and have the date saved added to the name. The sub folder is called "Completed reports". The data in the original file on worksheet "Attendance Data" should be deleted.

At the end of the process all the files that have had data copied from them should be moved to the sub folder "Attendance reports consolidated" (This could be done as each file is closed if that is easier).

I have headings in row 1 of the "Attendance Data" worksheet that match the headings in the various files in the folder (which will always be in row 14 of the individual "*att*.xls" files).

The folder with all the files and the "Consolidated webinar report.xls" file is at path "Z:P and S MEvaluationsWebinar series 2012-13TB".

How To Save File With Correct File Extension (XLS Or XLSX)

Mar 12, 2014

How can I save worksheet from existing workbook as a new workbook with extension .xls or .xlsx depending on the version of Excel on which the original was opened and no matter the extension of original?

My code that I was trying to create all above does not work, because even if I am using Excel 2007, 2010 or 2013 it will still be saving only as .xls.

Extract Data And File Names From File In Folder And Paste Into One Sheet?

Jan 13, 2013

The code below looks at file names in column A and then goes to a folder and opens and copies the data in range c2 -lastrow from each file and pastes the data into sheet2.

how I could add to the code so that it also inserts the file name in column c?

It would make it easier to track the data in column B.

VB:
Sub CopyFromFile()
Dim fPath As String
Dim lRow As Long

[Code].....

I have attached a sample workbook. The list of file name is in sheet 1. An example of the output is in sheet 2. The data in column A is dummy data generally spans 100's of rows not just 10 as in the example.

The purpose of the code is to be able to put a list of file names in column a in sheet 1 and extract data from those files in a folder. The data extraction works fine. The reson for adding the file names is so that I know what file the data came from.

Match Products With Correct Image File?

Aug 4, 2014

So I have a spreadsheet of several thousand products (spare parts) and we received a folder of image files to go with these parts, however the file names aren't all uniform; some of the image files have the Part Number, while others use the SKU number. I have cells with the part # and SKU number for each product, and I could probably copy and paste the list of all image file names from the folder into the same spreadsheet. Is there a macro that could search the image file list for either the SKU or Part Number, and whichever is listed for each row, insert that file name into a cell? So I have this:

Item name SKU # Part #
Spare Part 1 123456 P0459381B
Spare Part 2 340934 P2394093A
etc

And then I have the list of image files in its own Sheet or whatever's easiest
P0459381B.jpg
340934.jpg
etc

So after the macro is complete, I'd have:

Item name SKU # Part # Image file
Spare Part 1 123456 P0459381B P0459381B.jpg
Spare Part 2 340934 P2394093A 340934.jpg

Check Cells Are Correct Format And Contain Correct Data

Jan 26, 2014

We receive about 20 sales files of several hundred lines of data each day from various agencies. I want to create a macro / VBA code which checks that the data submitted is correct so that we can upload it into our database without import errors and / or having to manually check each line of data.

I envisage something like an output report:

#####################
149 entries
Column A - Date - OK
Column B - Customer_Phone - Errors (Should be 11 digits)
Row 21 - Customer_Phone - Error (Not 11 digits)
Row 108 - Customer_Phone - Error (Contains letters)
Column C - Outcome - OK
Please correct and re-check.

Sumproduct- Counts The Correct Amount But Not With The Correct Dates

I have a table with 3 columns of dates and then a column with Set # that I
feel in the box #.

I need to see how many items processed for each set per day.

Example:

The problem is that it counts the correct amount but not with the correct
dates.
The formula that I use is:
=SUMPRODUCT(--($I$3:$I$8<>"")*(($C$3:$C$8=39601)+AND($E$3:$E$8=39601)+AND($G$3:$G$8=39601)))

Moving Known File To Known Folder?

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).

Creating Folder Beside The Excel File?

Apr 23, 2014

Just striving to have this kind of "picture arrangement's macro" to work, macro that whenever you choose a certain cell and operate it on hotkey it'll:

1. Create a new folder named "PicturesAuto" beside the excel file (wherever the excel file located).

2. Inside folder "picturesAuto it'll create a new subfolder named by the same name of the sheet related to that cell you operated the macro upon. (let's say this cell placed on sheet named: "happysheet"- that'll be the name of the subfolder created.)

3. Inside the subfolder "happysheet" it'll create a new subfolder named by the text of the cell you activated the macro upon (let's say you initially operated the macro on B5 cell -which has the text "montana" so it'll create "montana" subfolder also inside subfolder "happysheet")

4. Lastly instead of having only the text "montana" in "B5 cell" like we had initially before activating the macro, the macro'll also add to that text "montana" the link to "montana" folder (path of excel file->picturesAuto->happysheet->montana)

The way I'm planning to use this is to add a lot of HR pictures inside those folders created by the macro that related to that specific sheet, and that specific cell I've activated the macro upon. Plus just having those pictures so organized is just outstanding in every scale, and the excel file will keep running smoothly without any resource consuming overload.

Loop Through Folder And Add Cells From Each File?

Mar 20, 2014

I have a folder that has multiple files that i would like to pull data from. This data is in the same cell in each file so all i would like to do is add the total value up at the end once it finished looping through all the files and display it on my sheet. Some of these files could have 1 worksheet where others might have 3-4. If I only have 1 file in the folder it works perfectly fine but as soon as the second file opens i get a Subscript Out of Range error (See code below for the line this error occurs on).

Move File To Folder Based On Name

Sep 10, 2008

All I have a macro that goes to a "Main" folder modifies the excel sheet and then saves. Is there a way to move that "Modified" sheet to the correct folder after?

All of the excel sheets are named like this:

Bldg _ Date

1130_2008-January
1200_2008-March
1300_2008-January

I need the Bldg # to be a folder.

So all of the Excel files are in this folder: C:Documents and Settingsu369875DesktopProject stuffTestin Save_AS

And then at the end of that I need the bldg Number from the front of the excel name. So for the first one : C:Documents and Settingsu369875DesktopProject stuffTestin Save_AS1130

Or I could even put that building # in the excel at lets say (A1) and grab from there if that would work..

Here is the macro I have as of now. It loops through all of the excels in the folder.

Main Macro (calls out Macro2 & Macro3)

Find Newest File In A Folder

Oct 29, 2008

I am doing a project for work at the moment where by I have to manipulate a report compiled by an external program and do various bits and bobs to it. Trouble is, the other program creates a new version every time it runs the report (i.e filename.1.xls, and the next day filename.2.xls, and so on). Is there any way of searching the folder these files are in to find the newest file and select that one as the one to open and manipulate? There will be no files other than these in the folder.
