I am trying to create a macro that opens a .pdf with the name of the pdf equal to a cell value. For a simple example: Cell "A1" contains the text "distinct" and I want the file prexisting file "C:distinct.pdf" to open when the macro is ran.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to have a file print in legal size if I have 56 lines filled in
otherwise print in regular letter size. Does anyone know how to write this
in VBA.
I am trying to set the print area based on cell values, but I keep getting errors when running the macro. It fails where I have highlighted, but rc.Value shows as the proper number.

I'm trying to get this macro to work; so that when someone hits the ok to print button on a worksheet titled "TOTALS", if cells C18 and C3 don't equal each other it would prompt the user and cancel the print.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have data (part numbers) in column B. They are alphanumeric, eg 29 EE.
When I receive parts I enter the quantity of pallets received in column C next to the part number in column B.
Sometimes certain parts are not received therefore the relevant cell in column C would be left blank. There are a total of 30 part numbers in column B.
I also have an A4 landscape sheet (when printed) which is formatted into two rectangular blocks (merged cells) with fonts sized 200. The lower section contains the NOW() function and the upper section contains a part number which is entered manually. If I receive 10 pallets of 29 EE I will then print out 10 copies of the sheet with the part number and current date.
The same applies with the next part number 29 HE, if I receive 3 pallets of this part I then edit the part number for the A4 sheet and then print 3 copies.
I would like to be able to just enter the quantities received into column C and then select a macro button to print out all the sheets automatically for each part.
The reason for this is to enable older stock to be used first which can be easily identified with an A4 sheet attached when it is put away in the warehouse racking.
I've found some code which works to print certain pages with value in cell A1 but I need to print dynamic ranges on some of the sheets as they will have filters on so the rows ranges will be different each time.
So far this is what I have but the dynamic range part is not working:
VB:
Sub Print_All_Worksheets_With_Value_In_A1()
Dim Sh As Worksheet
Dim Arr() As String
Dim N As Integer

Is it possible to print a PDF file from a macro? I want to have the pdf file specified by the user in a form to print when the macro is activated.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a file which I am using at work to compile production shift reports. I have created a sheet called Live Report and created a macro called 'New Day' that copies the entire sheet and renames it as yesterdays date (using a separate sheet called Data with a =today()-1 and text formulas thus the sheet tab for 14/2/07 is called 14 Feb) it then clears certain cells on the Live Report sheet so that information can be entered again.
My problem is that I want to now create a table of values that compiles values from each sheet for the month. What I wanted to do was have the names of all possible sheet tabs listed in column A and then as we get to each date the links will become active for the 20 or so values on each sheet. So each row will have the sheet tab name in column A and then columns B to R will have links to that sheet. As I am lazy and the linked values will always be in the same location I just wanted to drag the first row of links down the table using the value in Column A as part of the filepath/link.
My problem is no matter how much I try I can't use cell values in filepaths. If this is impossible I would like help with a macro that can find the right row in the table based on todays date and copy certain information.
I have this invoice spreasheet and I would like to when I excecute a macro to print, I would also like to use a PDFwritter to automaticly save/print the pdf file to a location and to ad the invoice number to the name like.

I inherited the following code from my predecessor:
ps_filename = "C:Example" & which_area_name & Cells(j, 6)
Sheets(sheets_name).Activate
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, PrintToFile:=True, Collate:=True, prtofilename:=ps_filename
Which created postscript files from Excel. I used to run this code while logged on as my predecessor, becuase only she had write permissions on the relevant file (C:Example). However, her account has now been deleted from the system - I have reset the permissions on the folder so that I can write to it, but the PostScript files created do not work - I get the error message that the file is corrupted and cannot be opened, or that there is a syntax error. The files used to work fine when logged in as my predecessor - could it be that? I have also tried to run the code on a different machine/on a different excel file and the problem still occurs.
I want to add the columns in the attached sheet...any 4,say A,C,D and F.....as follows,if the number in the cell is less than .8,I want use 1 in the sum,otherwise zero. I would like to do this in 1 column if possible. in the attached sheet,I have filled in manually the answer in column L....Thus row 1 contained no numbers less than .8 in the selected columns,where as row 8 had all four numbers less than .8.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a technician who sits a desk over, has the same brand of computer running the same Windows 7 and the same Excel 2010, but when he opens a particular file the page layout or print area seems to change so that the sheet is partially cut off. All his options appear the same. I can open this file on other computers and it seems to be fine...
I notice that the Margins under Custom Margins are different and this would explain the problem but not why it occurs. It's a file I created and saved and he opened. Why would the margins change? Is this one of the Microsoft cross platform / program deals where if he changes the print set-up or page layout in WORD for example, it changes them in EXCEL?

I am currently working on sheet that i need to have print out user names and random passwords for as many people that entered on the sheet to a text file for email. I am running into a few issues.
1. When i try to print to a .txt file of the text from column G on sheet 'Review and Generate', all the text appears on one line. I have been trying to use the Char(10) to create line spaces, but that has not worked out for me. How do i get excel to export text from a cell to a .txt file with correct line spaces?
2. I have a random password function running on column F, however i am trying to get it only produce one result and not keep calculating random values. How do i have the cell calculate only once?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use Excel to build a text file based on values from certain cells in Excel 2010. This is based partially off of static text that never changes and variables that will need to change. For example, I want Excel to output a text file that has the following text: The red fox jumped over the $X twice. I would want $X to be replaced by the value of A1 of the active worksheet. I will also have several lines like that, so it won't just be a single line, but anywhere from 20 - 120.

I am writing an Array to a text file but I keep getting an error that the Print statement requires a suitable object. I tried Debug but all this did was put the data into the immediate window and created a file that was empty.

The data in the immediate window is correct but when you open the text file with notepad there is nothing to be seen.
I'd like my macro (in an Excel 2010 workbook) to copy values from three worksheet cells and append them to an existing Access or SQL database file -- without having to leave my Excel spreadsheet or open any other programs. The database file simply needs to be appended. Keeping a running list. That file isn't being used for anything else, we can set it up however is necessary to do this.
For example, Excel cells A1, A2, and A3. Representing Job Name, Job Number and Job Total.
how make VBA do this(in SIMPLE terms)? Or give me a link of where to look or what to search for? I understand VBA but not Access or SQL.
