Read Range Of Data Line By Line Which Is Increasing Dynamically
Aug 20, 2014
I need to read or clear all the line in specific range which will be increasing dynamically. Problem is "Selected File List" table range is not specified. New file chosen with browse will be added to "Selected File List" dynamically. Number of file can't be predicted.

What I've tried so far is, keep track of the browse button click and add the file path to arraylist. After that, (Row number 9 which is start line + arraylist size) to get the number of line of end of the table. But due to some requirement, I want to read the file from excel file. Something like -Read until found blank line or border bottom or something.
I'm new to VBA and I'm not so sure what I'm doing with vba codes
I have the data to import / read in a pdf, in a doc, or in an Excel worksheet whichever is easier to use. I need to import the data, parse it into the correct cells for that row and then repeat the import until the end of the file. Not all the cells are in each group of data to import, so those cells will be null for that row. Some of the data for one cell may be in up to 14 lines in the data file. I have be concatenating these data rows into one cell. There are 48,000 lines in the file to import or I would do this manually. I am assuming that doing this in VBA would be the most efficient method.
I have about 180 workbooks which I need to compile into a Master Schedule.
All the tab 1's are different, these feed into tab 2, which the data has the same formatting throughout. The 2nd tab has the same data for A:F 1 but cells A:2 - F:2 down to row 9 are populated from tab 1, therefore different in each. I am trying to get a Master schedule that lifts the data in the fed cells into a line by line spreadsheet?
Is there a way I can get excel to look at a folder, then every workbook in it, the at the 2nd tab in every workbook, then list the cells as described above? I am not after a consolidation of this data, but a full list?
I have the following code which reads line 54 (row 54) in a spreadsheet and calculates the following using data in subsequent columns. Sometimes the data I need isn't always in row 54, I would rather have the macro read the data in Column A[AB] that is on line 54...sometimes on 53.
The date is Sep-09. How can I make it read this rather than AB54. I think I just need changes @ the top (ie Dim rng as Range, Set rng = [AB54]).
Sub Profile_info2() Dim rng As Range Set rng = [AB54] rng.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-12]+R[-1]C[-12]+R[-2]C[-12]" With rng.Offset(0, 2) .FormulaR1C1 = "=((RC[-28]+R[-1]C[-28]+R[-2]C[-28])*4)/((RC[-25]+R[-1]C[-25]+R[-2]C[-25])/3)" .NumberFormat = "0.0" End With With rng.Offset(0, 3) .FormulaR1C1 = _ "=((RC[-15]-RC[-29])+(R[-1]C[-15]-R[-1]C[-29])+(R[-2]C[-15]-R[-2]C[-29]))/(RC[-15]+R[-1]C[-15]+R[-2]C[-15])" .Style = "Percent" .NumberFormat = "0.0%" End With rng.Offset(0, 4).FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-8]" With rng.Offset(0, 5) .FormulaR1C1 = "=(((RC[-17]-RC[-31])+(R[-1]C[-17]-R[-1]C[-31])+(R[-2]C[-17]-R[-2]C[-31]))*4)/((RC[-28]+R[-1]C[-28]+R[-2]C[-28])/3)" .Style = "Percent" End With End Sub
I'm using the following code to read a text file that I downloaded from a mainframe file.
Do While Not EOF(FileNum) Line Input #FileNum, myLine Debug.Print myLine Loop
It reads and prints the first line, but then drops out of the loop. According to the help file, "Line Input" is looking for a carriage return (Chr(13)) or carriage return–linefeed (Chr(13) + Chr(10)) sequence. I have pasted a sample of the text file below. I'm not sure what the characters are at the beginning of each line, but perhaps I could find a way to replace each of them with a carriage return.
I am trying to add a vertical line dynamically to a chart. What I mean is I have a chart that will have a line type chart on it and I want to add a vertical line to it based on the output of one cell in that same workbook. I am making this workbook for use by end-users so I can't ask the end-users to make a bunch of modifications to the sheet or or chart. What I do has to just work when they use the workbook.
The line chart has an X axis of time and a Y axis of items sorted. (This is the part of the chart I have done already.) I want to add a vertical line fed from a cell which will have a time fed from a cell on the workbook. For example the line chart goes from 9:00 to 16:00 and the vertical line might be at 13:00. The cell feeding the vertical line is subject to change based on the other inputs on the workbook so that's why I say the vertical line has to be dynamic as the vertical line could be anywhere between 9:00 to 16:00 or it might even be that I can't place the vertical line because the feeding cell is outside the range of 9:00 to 16:00.
I have seen a number of ways to do this but none that are dynamic and automatic and don't require end user to adjust the workbook to make the vertical line at the correct on the time scale.
I've recently created a macro which takes a .csv file and scrubs the data and dresses it up for a report. I've finally got it running without any problems and have added it individually to 5 different user accounts on my network as an add-in, but need a way to share it across a computer network without allowing others to edit the file.
The report is generated multiple times a day by the different users, none of whom are very computer literate (not that I am much better, myself), and the macro over-writes the old file each time. I've read that it's possible to simply create a shortcut to the file that automatically opens the spreadsheet in read-only format, which would be perfect for what I'm trying to do, but I haven't been able to get it to work so far.
On my computer at work (Windows 7) the shortcut simply opens the spreadsheet so that anyone can edit it, instead of as a read-only file. On my computer at home (I'm trying to experiment) (windows 8.1) it won't even let me save the shortcut, saying I need to provide administrator permission & then cutting to a window that says "access denied".
I won't have the pathway for the actual file I'm trying to create a shortcut for until tomorrow when I get back to work, but I've formatted it essentially the same, directing to the excel.exe file, running the switch "/R", and then directing it to the actual file location.
The ultimate goal is to have multiple people be able to view the file without locking out those who need to update it.
Our small family business has a mailing campaign that we track with excel. However, we're very concerned about users opening the macro-filled master spreadsheet. Instead, we'd like a macro to do everything for them.
When a letter comes back in the mail with a bad address, the user types the Street number and street name such as "1234 Main St" into $A2 of c:dropbox eturned.xlsm, presses the macro button, and it should do the following:
Opens and Searches "Sheet1", "column S", in the file c:dropboxmaster1.xlsm, and finds the LAST instance of the address typed.Selects that entire rowCopies the entire row.Pastes the contents into the row of the active cell in the destination spreadsheet, overwriting what was there before. Such as $2:$2 if the address was typed in $A2.In the master1.xlsm spreadsheet, sets the entire copied row color to "gray".closes master1.xlsm and saves changes.
The end result is that the user now has an identical row of information in their spreadsheet, and the master spreadsheet's row is colored gray indicating it has been completed.
Other notes:I'm open to more efficient steps than this if you have them.There are approx 5,000 records to search through in master1.xlsx at any given time.
I'm trying to combine 2 cells that both have text on multiple lines separated by line breaks. I want to keep the formatting so that when both cells are combined, line one from cell 1 and line 1 from cell 2 are on the same line in the new combined cell. This is easy to do when there is only 1 line in each cell but how do you do this for cells with multiple lines? Here is an example of what I am trying to do:
A B C
1 First Name: Last Name: Address: John Smith 123 Harold Street First Name: John Last Name: Smith Address: 123 Harold Street
Here how it works, if B3 is the same color as the reference cell $A$76 and D3 is different than D4 then the result is 1
I would like this function to work from line 3 to line 60 and return the total of lines where the conditions are met. I'm thinking of a =COUNTIF function but can't get something to work. If there is a simpler way, it's even better. The IfColor is a function I wrote in VBA,
I have a spreadsheet that I have setup to have raw data pasted into. Long story short, it pulls the maximum reading for a given 5 minute period and returns the highest value for each 5 minute increment where there was a reading. It does this for all of the different dates entered, returning a separate data table for each date.
What I now need is to graph the data on a line chart. Since the number of time values can be variable, I have to include the entire range (for example A3:B5002). When I graph this out, it has all of the data clumped up at the beginning and flatlines for 99% of the chart.
I tried building dynamic named ranges using offset, but that seems to yield similar results once charted.
See the link below where I've dumped some sample data in (it wouldn't let me upload due to the size and I can't upload only part of it without breaking the whole thing). The data I need to chart is from columns A&B on the GraphData sheet. Sheet 1 contains the chart I have been trying to use. The endgame of this is to have the end user paste in their data and *POOF* charts.
My only restriction is that I cannot have Macros/VBA.

I tried following this post and using NA() instead of ""...no dice, it just puts #NA at the bottom labels instead of spaces.
I need the Service Order tab to populate with data from the CPR tab based on the IO#. Since there is more than 1 occurrence of an IO# I need a formula to list the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc result of the vlookup in the cell under the 1st.
=VLOOKUP($E$2,CPR!$L$4:$AA$12,2,FALSE),
When I drag this down I get the 1st occurrence of the IO# 777 I need all of them.
B C D Atex ID#(unique id) Campaign name Site Row 7 1st occurrence of IO# 777 Row 8 2nd occurrence of IO# 777 Row 9 3rd occurrence of IO# 777
I have a worksheet that I need to be able to easily copy and paste the formula/formatting from the row above, but not the Values entered, (if any). I am using columns A to DG.
I just really need to be able to copy all the formula in these cells down - nothing exciting or fancy.
I've tried formatting as a table as per some searches and that was difficult! My column headings changed, and when I inserted a row, two of the formula's wouldn't copy down - plus the shading and borders went wonky in places.
Currently I am using Excel 2000. I did a search and couldn't seem to find the answer I was looking for. Hopefully someone can help. It would be greatly appreciated since I have been trying to figure out how to do this for days.
I am trying to create a worksheet that will pull info from a row on one sheet to another sheet based on the name; then continue to list the info on each line afterward until there is no more of the that particular criteria. See below (this is just an example to simplify the data but would need the same process):
This would be the data on sheet 1:
Name Bonus Commision
Tom $45 $50 Mary $25 $75 Mary $30 $80 Tom $60 $50 Tom $90 $25
What I would like to do is have 2 more sheets. One would be Tom's sheet and the other would be Mary's sheet and it would look like this:
Tom's Sheet:
Tom $45 $50 Tom $60 $50 Tom $90 $25
Mary's Sheet:
Mary $25 $75 Mary $30 $80
I am not completely familiar with all of the functions in Excel and compared to you guys I am a complete novice.
Is this possible to do in Excel without using a macro?
I have a spread sheet with product codes on and 5 different prices types but they have only pulled through 4 times so need to insert a 5th line for each product code
I have a spreadsheet where on a weekly basis data is copied in to various tabs. I then have a "formula" tab where I have a single line of formulas which look up the various data tabs and extract the results I want to show.
Currently each week, before I import the new data into the various tabs, I copy the last row in the "formula" tab and paste to the line below it. This contains all the working formulas. I then paste values only on the line that I copied, thus "locking in" the values it calculated with that weeks data. This means that each row then contains the results with that week's data, and this will grow week by week.
What I am looking for is a formula that automates this process. So let's say that row 30 is the final row of data on my formula tab, it contains the formulas I want to use. I would need a macros that does the following:
1. Looks up last row (row 30) 2. Copies last row (row 30) 3. Pastes to next empty row (row 31) 4. Pastes values only to second last row (row 30)
I'm not too great with writing macros, I've found plenty that can find the last row, but I can't get them to work to highlight that row.
Creating a macro that will identify the last blank line in column J and insert a line in it? The macro will need to look from the "bottom" as there is blanks cells above the last line.
I'm working with matrix in vba and i'm trying to put all values of a specific line in that matrix in a line in excel. For example:
Matrix = 1 2 3 4
and i want Range("B1:B2") = 3 | 4 (the second line of that matrix). Is there any way of doing this without perfoming a loop? [something like Range("B1:B2").value = 'range'(matrix(0,0) , matrix(0,1)) ]
I have a spreadsheet where there is a white line that is over a row line. No matter what I do I cannot seem to delete it.
I zoom in but I cannot select it.
I change the border of the cells and it will not disappear.
I am completely lost as to what else it could be, no doubt it is a simple answer that is staring me in the face. I inherited the spreadsheet so not sure what was done in the past.
I want to use a line graph to display an amount over time - that's the easy part. On the other hand, I would like to have to group the lines based on a value.
A short example: Imagine you own 3 different stores and you're selling oranges. So your table looks like this: http://img179.imageshack.us/my.php?image=orangeshm4.jpg
Now I'd like to have one graph (3 different graphs won't work as the rows increase -I need to select the whole column as data source):
Date on the x axis, Oranges sold on the y axis, and one line per store (e.g. a green one for store A, a red one for B and a blue one of C, doesn't matter).
I am plotting a line chart wherein the X-axis is based on % and Y-axis is based on $. I have 5 scenarios wherein they have different ranges. I want to have the X-axis plotted up to 100%. How to get the X-axis stacked at 100%. See attached file.
I do not have any VBA knowledge. However, teach/show me how to write a macro to convert each new record (with a date range) into individual records for each day in that date range. It might take me a long time to learn from you but I really don't mind trying and putting in the effort. My description of the idea is shown below.
The intention is for new records to be added each time a staff/member has a new travel trip. Each new record = new row added below the last record previously added. DateRangeQ_1.png
With the macro, I hope to be able to add each new record to a separate list. This separate list shows those travel records by each individual date and staff/member name. The dates do not need to be in chronological order. DateRangeQ_2.png
So if Mary Jane enters a new business trip to Egypt for 15th Dec to 17th Dec, she will enter a new record in row 9, click the macro button and the macro will generate 3 new records in rows 31, 32 and 33 (one row for one date in the trip).
