I've added an word object to my excel sheet as an icon. The only problem is that it shows the word icon then under it says 'Microsoft Word Document'. This might be an obvious and silly question. But how do I Rename the 'Microsoft Word Document' to a title of my choice?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an excel template that needs to be copied multiple times and each sheet needs be named according to a list in an excel spread sheet. I also have a formula in the template that needs the value copied instead of the formula.
I got this script from an site and tried it. It runs but I don't see any spread sheets.
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject ("winmgmts:\" & strComputer & "

How can I set the SAVE AS file name to equal A1's cell contents? (More specifically, when I need to rename an existing open file and place my cursor in A1 and hit Save As, I need to new file name to automatically populate A1's cell contents so I don't have to retype the contents of A1.)

i'm using the following
Dim objX As OLEObject
Set objX = ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Word.Document.8", Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False)
objX.Border.Color = RGB(255, 255, 255)
Set objX = Nothing
but the objects opens up very small--i have to resize to use...(it is bothersome to the user...)
?can i have the object up with larger width and lenght dimensions..?
I need to send out an order form (spreadsheet) to 100's of people that need to complete the form and email back to me as an attachment. If I was completing the order form myself I would use the "email" icon that I have pinned to my Quick Access Toolbar (QAT). However, most of the recipients don't even know the Toolbar exists.
Is there a way I can insert an icon / hyperlink in the spreadsheet that does the same thing as the QAT icon. I can insert text to say "click here to email your order" (or similar).
I need to keep it in an excel format and an icon is so much better that asking them to save to their hard-drive and attach to an email, etc.
The QAT icon is exactly what is needed but I need to provide a spreadsheet that works for folk who haven't got the icon.
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.
I am trying to make an excel vba reference the word 12.0 object library automatically without the user having to manually add them. How I can do this?

I've written most of the code that I need... the problem is that I don't know how to properly select, move and rename the pdf from excel.
I have a popup to select the file, and I know what I want it to be called, what I need is the code to move and rename a non-excel file from inside a macro.
Here is what I have so far:
Sub AttachPDF()
Dim LastName As String
Dim Street As String
Dim callDate As String
Dim FilePath As String
Dim HouseNumber As String
Dim FullFileName As String
Dim FileName As String
Dim Scan As String
Range("D32").Select
'Ask user what file they want to attach.
Scan = Application. GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Follow Up Scan, *.pdf", Title:="Please Choose A PDF To Attach")
If Scan <> False Then

I want when i want another copy always my path should be "C: estabc.xlsm"
and
For new file in same path "C: estdef.xlsm" an input box ask for the name("def.xlsm") "what new name u want for this new file".
And I input the new name for my file and done.
I've found these functions to assist in renaming a file.
However, I'm not quite sure how to apply to code.
I have some code which will look for a specific file in a given location. Is it possible to use VBA to rename that file without opening/re-saving and killing the specific file?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am using the following code to rename a file that is being pumped out by another program.
Sub CopyAndDelete()
Name "C:Program FilesPATH1234567890_3.tvr" As "C:Program FilesPATHNEWNAME.tvr"
'
End Sub
The problem I have is the the file being pumped has a varible name. The nly constant is the _#.tvr. The first 10 digits are random numbers.
I have persued the "rhymn and reason" for the file name with the vendor and have been told it can not be changed and is random. The "_#.tvr" piece comes from the number of reports I have generated for the day. So I have 5 prefined reports that run each day and can recreate the _0.tvr through _4.tvr but the first 10 are random each time.
I would like for the rename to "ignore" the first 10 digits then looking at the file name.
I have the following code, which I use to open up a .xls file generated from Crystal Reports:
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Dim fexport1 As String ' variables for the exported file
Dim fexport2 As String
Dim wb1 As String 'variables to change between the opened workbooks
Dim wb2 As String
strTemp = "Please Choose The Exported File"
MsgBox strTemp
fexport1 = Application.GetOpenFilename("Excel Files (*.xls), *.xls)")
If InStr(fexport1, "False") = 0 Then
Workbooks.Open fexport1
wb1 = ActiveWorkbook.Name
Else
strTemp = "Operation Canceled"
End If
The problem is that Crystal Reports generates the file with an invalid worksheet name (it contains a backslash) and I do not have access to modify the Crystal Report. Althought the file can be automatically repaired by Excel when manually opened, the macro chokes and the "Application.DisplayAlerts = False" does not fix it. The only solution I can think of is renaming the worksheet without opening the file.
I think my code is close but I keep getting an error "Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error"
I am trying to rename the active workbook by appending yesterday's date onto the filename, using the Save As.
I might be going about this all wrong anyway. My user needs the macro to save, rename, and close the renamed copy of the workbook but to leave the original workbook open. I'm trying to do it in steps so I might be doing this the hard way. However, my code to Save As is below:
Sub SaveAsRename()
Dim CurrentPath As String
Dim CurrentFileName As String
Dim NewFileName As String
Dim Today As Date
Today = Int(Range("A3") - 1) 'Cell A3 contains the =Today() formula
CurrentPath = ThisWorkbook.Path
CurrentFileName = "QU Backhaul Dispatch "
NewFileName = CurrentFileName & Today & ".xlsm"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=CurrentPath & "" & NewFileName
End Sub
My Locals window has all of the correct values right up to the ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs which is where it fails.
I am trying to move and rename an excel template file using a macro. My code works fine when it is moving the file locally on my C: drive. However, when I try to do it on a mapped network drive I get a Path/File access error. Here is the relevant code:

I have to create a word file that has about 300 pages containing stats for about 400 different statistical indicators. It has to be updated on a monthly basis
The file is populated using data from an excel spreadsheet.
Is it possible to put links to the spreadsheet in the word document so that the I can update the spreadsheet and have the word document automatically update itself?
I've followed a couple of the FSO threads and come up with the code below however I keep getting a 'Runtime Error 76 - Path not found'.

dest = "L:eBISScan Station"
dname = "Scans(" & Date & ").csv"
FSO.copyfile "H: odaysscans.csv", dest & dname
End Sub
It hangs at the area coloured red. However if I hard code the full path and name as I've done with the source information it works fine.
I've inserted a Solidworks drawing into a worksheet & wish to change the displayed image using VB. I suspect this could be done by changing it's source file, but can't get the code to work.
