View 5 Replies View RelatedI’m trying to implement a progress indicator into my spreadsheet. I used John Waltenbach book, but I’m not able to get it up and running.
Basically what I’ve got so far is a user form which appears directly when the spreadsheet is open....
I want to put progress indicator for data input in Excel.
The data input is in cell A1 until A10, and B1 until B10.
So, I need two progress indicator (for cell A & B).
I have a macro that calls 3 other procedures during its run. I have the positon set in the UpdateIndicator sub
With ProgressIndicator
.Top = Application.Top + 300
.Left = Application.Left + 400
end with
and the Userform StartUpPosition property set to 0 - Manual (though I did experiment with the other settings as well.
The issue is that when the series of subs are running, the Indicator jumps and shifts (by 10 or so pixels down and right) and sometimes blinks off completely as each new sub is being called and subsequently returns to the initial macro.
It is accurate and does what it's supposed to do, I just find it annoying and that it probably looks a bit unprofessional (and unstable) to the eyes of some coworkers who use the macro as well.
is it possible to show progress indicator if macro execution take some considerable time say more than 10 seconds?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to import around 200 (and growing!) separate text files into Excel. I am using the formula below to import the text file and then using a separate macro to select the information I need, copy it into another spreadsheet, and then run the import macro again.
However, I have a problem in that my import macro gives me 'Run-time error '1004:
Application defined or user defined error''. At first this wasn't a problem as the information is pasted into the spreadsheet despite the error anyway. However, now that I am looping the macro it is obviously causing more problems as it prevents the loop. I would really appreciate it if anyone knows of a work-around or can spot an error in the coding to resolve this!
The code below shows is for the import macro only:
Sub ImportTextFile(FName As String, Sep As String)
Dim RowNdx As Long
Dim ColNdx As Integer
Dim TempVal As Variant
Dim WholeLine As String
Dim Pos As Integer
Dim NextPos As Integer
Dim SaveColNdx As Integer
I'm using the following code to import thousands of html files into my spreadsheet. The code is working fine. Since I am importing thousands of files, when there is no more space on my worksheet, the code stops with an error message. I want to make this code add another worksheet & continue importing the html files until there are no more files to import.
Sub Master_Importer()
Dim I As Long
Dim strFilename As String
Dim strPath As String
strPath = "file:///C:/Documents and Settings/c/Desktop/New Folder/"
With Application.FileSearch
.LookIn = "C:Documents and SettingscDesktopNew Folder"
.FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles
.Execute
For I = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
strFilename = Mid(.FoundFiles(I), InStrRev(.FoundFiles(I), "") + 1)
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;" & strPath & strFilename _ .......................
I would like to create a macro that looks in a specific directory "h:data"
It finds the 6 most recently modified files in this directory (csv files)
Then imports these 6 files into seperate worksheets in the same workbook "sorter.xls"
1. I've recorded a macro that imports values from 6 different .csv files at once. The problem is that not all of these files are going exist upon import. Is there a way to tell the macro to only import if the file exists? And to skip if the import of that file if it doesn't exist? Right now the debugger stops the macro because of file not found.
2. I want to press a button on Sheet 1 that copies Sheet 1 into a new Sheet that's named with today's date. E.g. I press the "Archive"-button, the sheet is copied to a new sheet with the name "051308".
I need to import about 1500 HTML file into a DB (SQL Server). But (here is the big problem), I only need to import some data of each HTML file (always the same line/variable).
So I thought using Excel as you can say with part of the HTML file you want to import. It works great.
But I did it with one file. Is there a way you can select a whole directory and it does it for you?
I have a question regarding importing data. What I need to do is specify a certain directory and this directory contains multiple Excel files. I would like to open each file and extract certain data from each workbook. I should be ok to figure that part out (the data extraction) but I am really confused on how to open each excel file in the directory.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI import into my website a standard .csv file that contains product details from my supplier. Columns contain info such as RRP, Wholesale Price etc and rows for each product. For some reason thats only known to my supplier the text descriptions of each of the products are held on a seperate .txt file, in a separate folder with the .txt filename recorded one of the columns cells, one for each product. There are 1000's of products, each with its own .txt file such as 38675.txt, 37828.txt. As you can imagine to copy and paste into each products cell or to manually import each .txt will take the rest of my life.
how I could automate the input of the diferent .txt contents into the required cells.
I am trying to import a several files depending on date. The first part of the name of the files that I am importing are always the same, the end changes as the date changes.
I have a user form that comes up and I pick the dates that I am looking at.
What would be the code to import those depending on the date that I pick?
When my UF comes up, I pick whatever dates, I need to import all the files in between those dates.
I need to import a number of log files into a spreadsheet, each log will go into a separate tab. The logs are text files (.log) that have the same structure but slightly differ from each other.
For example all the logs will have many lines of data all starting with a date and then a number of delimited fields. In some logs the delimiter is a coma, in others is a unique charachter such as "{" or "@". Also the delimited fields are not a given quantity, they can vary too from log to log. How can I write a macro that understands what delimiter needs to be used and then imports all the file accordingly into one spreadsheet (in separate tabs)?
I tried something with the macro recorder and browsed for directions on the internet but really am clueless on this one. I am using windows 2000, and referenced Windows Scripting Runtime.
I'm looking for a macro that will import multiple .csv files from c: emp each into their own separate worksheet.

I've got 80 CSV files that I need to import into an Excel sheet. The filenames are sequential, eg 1APN .... 80APN). I need each chunk of data added after the previous. How can I do this using VB?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a macro which creates a new worksheet with the name kenmerk (i) and then import five different textfiles in this worksheet.
I was wondering how to define the name of the textfiles in the code. The code I get with record macro is: ...
My text files look like this(each has different number of rows):
2006-08-25 13:33:20 82,8 g
2006-08-25 13:34:10 58,5 g
between each column there is Tab
To import them from one directory (directories are named as month e.g. 8) I used:
Sub Consolidate()
Dim mnthNum As Integer
Dim myBook As Workbook
Dim myRows As Long
With Application
.DisplayAlerts = False
.EnableEvents = False
. ScreenUpdating = False
End With
and it works almost perfectly.. the problem is that each time it loads next file it overwrites the previous..
e.g. if i have in my directory 4 files and sum of the rows is 20 it will show only 17. The import is good because I checked it with debugger but each time a new file is copied it starts from last row of previous file.. that's the problem I can't solve...
I have about 200 text files each with 2 columns. I want to create a single excel spread sheet where the data comprises of the second column from each text file. I do not know any thing about macros and so need help on writing a macro that will automatically import data from the whole of the second column of each text file into one single spread sheet.
View 7 Replies View Relatedi have five different formats of data files i.e. different columns in count as well as heading. i want to import selected six columns from every file in a single sheet for data manipulation. can this be done anyways. The format for result file is standard with six columns only.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have around 200 files, all named from 001.xls to 200.xls, all containing the same format, the same number of colums, but a different number of lines.
Now I have the great task to actually open all these files and copy each files data into one file and start analyzing it. Well, since I personally have no interest to open, copy and paste 200 hundred times, I am wondering if there is any faster way to let excel automatically copy the data into this master file?
I am thinking about somehing like *='001.xls'Sheet2!B2:E20*
One thing is that each file never has more than 20 entries, thus i would only need excel to import the from line 2 to 20 from a certain file and then do same thing all over again with the next file.
I am trying to do a mass import of several thousand excel files into one file. The headers of all the files are the same, but the data inside each file is different. I thought about using Access but it wants me to import each individual one.
I have zero experience in writing a Macro
My associates have saved about 2,000 .zip files in a single repository. Each zip file contains a .pdf, and a file called "metadata.xml" - the metadata files are small, only 1-2Kb.
What I'd like to do is import the contents of each metadata.xml file into a single workbook so I can build an inventory of the pdf files.
The full path looks like this:
Z:PrincetonGlobal DataFinancial DataFinancial DataWCFNDL_PRODUCTION128650_TH1X0_ProTechLLC_A_Eng_BBOT__20140317132245.195_bbot.zip
Everything up to and including FNDL_PRODUCTION is exactly the same for each file. Everything after, varies, and is not predictable.
I'm thinking there is some way to say "for each file in repository, import metadata.xml content..."
-I receive files everyday by email and saved in a folder C:TEST
-each file saved by name Name+daily date
•( like: sale_20091214, sale_20091215, sale_20091216 )
-file is in csv/Comma delimiated format
-each file have 7 columns A to G and contain 256 rows
-i only need 7 or 8 rows & only need value in Column 'F'
-the rows i need are going to be same each time

I want to save automated data in a file name: MonthlySale located in c:
Fore each ROW data should be saved in new column next to last saved column.

Example:
data from file sale_20091214 should be saved in column B,
sale_20091214 should be saved in column C,

I have about 10k poorly formatted txt files that I need to grab 4 items from each and put in a spreadsheet. How can this be done in Excel or should it be done in Access instead?
Here's a link to what each txt file looks like: MTRP88PF700721.txt
I only need the number next to Posting Journal on line 3 (12686 in this case), the 3 digit number next to Class Total on line 11 (101 in this case), the Extended Cost Final Total and the Extended Retail Final Total (23.77 and 39.30 in this case)
because one of my staff members is currently opening each txt file and typing these figures into a spreadsheet!
