Rename Sheet While Copying To New Workbook

Jun 12, 2014

I have an electronic meter (Fluke AirCheck) that provides me with reports in the form of excel documents. I need to combine those documents and have a page/worksheet that contains a legend and some notes etc. for reporting to management.

Given:
I have a folder with nearly identical workbooks. All contain 4 worksheets:
Document map
Sheet2
Sheet3
Sheet4

Goal:
1. Copy and combine, either specific sheet(s) or all the sheets from multiple workbooks into a new workbook (with prompting)
2. Rename the worksheets as the workbook file names and existing worksheet names combined.

Example:
Workbook name is "101B.xls"
Worksheet 1 would be = "101B - Document Map"
Worksheet 2 would be = "101B - Sheet2"
Worksheet 3 would be= "101B - Sheet3"
Worksheet 4 would be= "101B - Sheet4"

Results thus far:
Okay so I managed to find a script that does most of what I need:

[Code] .....

For renaming the worksheets I have tinkered with:

[Code] .....

But alas none of that works. I can also only copy 1 sheet at a time currently.

Another issue which seems to have reared its ugly head in the copy and paste function as the text on my new worksheets is white on white when the originals are black text on white. I can select the new worksheet and select all cells and hit "Automatic" on text and it fixes it but that's a pain on 100+ worksheets. So I need some sort of copy /paste special command, I think to make that work too.

Cannot Rename A Sheet To The Same Name As Another Sheet, A Referenced Object Library Or A Workbook Refernced By Visual Basic

Feb 2, 2010

I am getting the error from the title of the thread when I try to change a worksheet name.

This worksheet name doesn't already exist in the workbook and I don't have any other files currently open.

I'm not entirely sure what is causing this, but I do need the sheet to be the name I am trying to change to.

Copying Data From One Workbook Sheet To Another Workbook Sheet Without Overwriting

Jul 1, 2014

The two sheets are...

1. Sheet1.xlsx (regular excel sheet as the extension is .xlsx)

2. Consolidated.xlsm (macro enabled sheet as its extension is .xlsm)

1. Copy both the files on your system under a particular folder.

2. Now make 9 replica's of Sheet1.xlsx and name them as Sheet2, Sheet3, Sheet4, .......... Sheet10

3. Open the sheet Consolidated.xlsm and see the button i have added called "Pull Data".

Now write down the code by adding a Module in that excel sheet from the code window.

4. Write a code that will open each of these sheets (Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3, Sheet4, .......... so on) one at a time and will copy the data from these sheets to the Consolidated.xlsm sheet.

5. Make sure that the data is appended(and not overwritten) from the multiple sheets (Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3). that is once you paste the data from sheet1 to Consolidated.xlsm then the Sheet2 data will be pasted at the end and after that sheet3 data will be pasted and so on..

6. In this way at the end we will have all the data from Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3...in the consolidated sheet.

7. The Division column in the Consolidated sheet will have the value of first row in these multiple sheets. So after making the replicas of Sheet1, please change the value in first row (Range A1) to any other value to avoid the confusion.

8. I have highlighted the data for two sheets in yellow and grey color in the consolidated sheet.

VBA To Hide Sheet In Workbook And Copying Hidden Sheet

Dec 12, 2013

I have a userform which clones the latest sheet and produces copy of it on the next sheet. The first sheet they will be cloning is the sheet called 'template', I however want this to be hidden since I do not want anybody to modify a sheet which basically serves purpose of a template. And once cloned, it is no longer needed.

On the click of the command button, the macro will create sheet1 taking the info from sheet named 'Template' in the same workbook . And now on the next click of the command button, Sheet 2 is created taking the info from sheet1 and Sheet 3 is created taking the info from Sheet 2 and so on. Here is what I currently have, so how can i modify it in order for my scnerio to work?

To select the last sheet in the workbook

Code:

Sheets(Sheets.Count).Select
To create new sheet

Code:

Sheets(Sheets.Count).Copy After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)Sheets(Sheets.Count).Name = MyEvent & " " & MySCN & "(" & ThisWorkbook.Sheets.Count - 2 & ")"

Copying Sheet From Emailed Workbook

Dec 15, 2009

I am trying to set up a macro so that when I receive updates (via email), I can simply hit a button and the information is copied into my workbook.

This is what I have however i get a 'Runtime error 9' which I believe means the references don't exist, I have double checked all my workbook/sheet naming and all is correct.

With Workbooks("Database").Sheets("Database").Range("A1:AP5000").Copy
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Database").Range("A1:AP5000").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAll
End With

I be addressing the copy method in a different way.

Copying Specific Excel Sheet From One Workbook To Another

Jun 16, 2014

Scenario is - n number of files are kept at a location say D:excelfiles

Each excel file contains, say, 10 sheets among them one sheet is called "custom".

Example -
file 1 - sheet1, sheet2, sheet3, custom, sheet5, sheet6
file 2 - sheet7, sheetB, custom, sheet9, sheet10, sheet11, sheet12
file 3 - sheet13, sheet14, sheet15, sheet16, custom, sheet17, sheet18, sheet19

and so on.

Requirement - all cell values of each "custom" sheet should get copied into a master excel sheet in file "import-sheets.xlsm".

To achieve this I started with copying each custom sheet from all excel files to the "import-sheets.xlsm" but I'm getting error.

Any way to directly copy paste the cell values of each "custom" sheet into a single master sheet of excel file "import-sheets.xlsm".

Attachment - dummy files to test macro. Macro name is copypaste.

Check If Sheet Exists In Destination Workbook Before Copying

Nov 26, 2012

I am trying to write some code that will copy the worksheets from one workbook (wkbSource) to another (wkbTarget), but I need it to maker sure the worksheets being copied from wkbSource don't already exist in wkbTarget. If they do exist, it just skips and moves to the next worksheet. Here is the code I have already, I thought that by adding the On Error Resume Next to the code it would just skip it, but for some reason it is still copying the first duplicate workbook, then it skips.

Code:
Dim wkbSource As Workbook
Dim wkbTarget As Workbook
Dim WorkbookName As String
WorkbookName = ThisWorkbook.Name

Rename All Tabs In Workbook

Jan 21, 2010

I have a workbook that pulls in data from other sources and contains 15 linked sheets. The data changes when different criteria is selected in the first sheet. The first 2 sheets are summary sheets and the tabs are named correctly.

I would like to be able to rename the remaining 13 tabs using labels found in the cells in the first sheet. These tabs should update or change when the first sheet is manually recalculated (F9).

I have used ActiveSheet.Name=Range("A1") but it doesn't apply in this case. Is there a macro that could run with something like Sheet1.Name=Range("A1"), Sheet2.Name=Range("A2"), Sheet3.Name=Range("A3"), etc.... or maybe something in each sheet that would change the name of the tab to a specific name off sheet 1 when the whole workbook is recalculated?

Rename New Workbook Without Save

Oct 25, 2006

had a look and the closest I could find was Renaming Or Removing Workbook which doesn't quite do what I am after. I am writing an add-in that creates a new workbook, grabs data from sybase to populate the workbook and then formats it as required. What I want to do is rename this workbook something meaningful, but without saving it.

The reason is that many people will end up using the add-in and will want to solve their cut of the results in various different location. The link above is along the lines, but is looking for a previously saved workbook, where as the workbook in question has yet to be saved.

So I guess the two option are to
1. Rename after the workbook has been created
2. Add the workbook with a specified name
but I can't find either methods out there.

Rename Workbook Prior To Saving

Apr 6, 2009

I have a need to simply rename a workbook without saving. I have a master template named "IR QT" but, within the workbook, I run a macro that saves the file with content from a cell as the filename. After the 'Save' macro is executed, the sheet stays open, as planned, but obviously the file has been renamed. What I would like to happen at the end of the 'Save' macro is for the sheet to be renamed (not re-saved) to "IR QT". I just need the VBA code to put at the end of the 'Save' macro to do the rename back to "IR QT".

Macro To Rename Sheet Tab

Aug 24, 2012

I run a report each month which renames the tab name called ex. "xxxxx Report 8". The 8 meaning for the month of August. I have created a macro to rename the tab, but each month when i generate the report the tab name change, hence i would have to change my macro again to reflect the tab name. What formula could i use in VBA to change the name of tab so i would not have to change my macro each month?

I currently use as shown below, which does not work since the number changes each month when i generate the report):

Sheets("xxxxx Report 8").Select
Sheets("xxxxx Report 8").Name = "Monthly Report"
