I keep getting a value of 0 for .Execute and .FoundFiles. I have had several experiences where it has correctly returned the number of files in the folder one day, and zero the next, even though there have always been files in the folder. The code returns the correct folder name so I know it is searching in the correct location, it just doesn't see the files that I know are there. Why don't I consistently get the correct number of files returned?

I have a string and a pattern. If a substring of the string is found in the pattern, the string is no longer valid. I would like to return a message stating which substring was found in the pattern.
String: K22+L09+P88+Q12+J56 Pattern: (N75|X02|A21|U67|L09|...) Output Should Be: "J56 is an invalid code. Blah-Blah"
Code to test string against pattern:
Code: Function Test_OPC(sCode, sPattern) As Boolean Dim RegX As Object Dim RegMC
i have this code which looks in a folder and moves all .csv files from folder into workbook. The code uses an Array.
If the code does not find a file in the folder (from the array) it returns an error. How can i modify this so that (if a file is not found from the array) then the code still continues without generating errors?
There are certain .xlsm files in our system (some have macros and others don't) which generate "Error: Source not Found" in the Edit Links dialog box when the Check Status button is pushed. However, the source location is correct, as you can click on Open Source and it will open the correct file.
For simplicity of explaining my issue, consider the following scenario. In my workbook "Corn Production Summary.xls_" I link to 2 source files: "Iowa.xlsm" and "Nebraska.xlsx" (Note: The extension of the summary file doesn't matter. This error happens regardless of what the summary is.)
When I open "Corn Production Summary" I am prompted to update values. I select Update and the file refreshes and recalculates appearing to have updated all values (i.e. no error messages). However, the values from Iowa.xlsm did NOT update and there was no error message indicating that the values didn't update.
To confirm this, I go to Data>Edit Links>Check Status in "Corn Production Summary" and I see that Iowa.xlsm has the "Error: Source not Found" error. I click on Open Source and once the file is open, my data in the summary file will update.
One work around was to do the following process (with the summary file closed):
1) Iowa.xlsm and Save As Iowa.xlsx (removing macros if needed)
2) Save As Iowa.xlsx as Iowa.xlsm (overwriting the file that is currently there and readding the macros)
3) Open the summary file and both Iowa and Nebraska work just fine now.
There are a lot of files like this, and because Excel doesn't prompt us that it isn't really getting the values from these certain .xlsm files we would have to search in "Edit Links" for each file to make sure that they really are updating.
I have a requirement to create a master spreadsheet using a macro to copy set cells from several other spreadsheets and paste them into the master one in a list for accounting purposes.
So far the macro reads in the spreadsheet filename(s) and copy/pastes the cells to the master one - I need to be able to paste the values onto subsequent rows for each input sheet which is where my problems lies. Currently the row just pasted in is overwritten over by the following one, I need to go to the next row down but am stuck on how to do it.
Sub EmployeeExp() ' ' EmployeeExp Macro ' Macro recorded 12/02/2008 by eugene.cross ' Dim i As Integer Dim f As String
I've attached an example master output sheet to show what I want to produce, albeit this has only one row!
I need a formula (but most likely a VBA macro) that will search through a folder for a file than get data from that file. The files are named in systematic way, but I need the entire formula to work from inputting a mold number in one cell. E.g. I input 6291 in cell A2 the vba macro searches for file â6291 mold.xlsxâ and returns a range of numbers as well as pictures in specified cells. Is this possible? If so how?
The closest thing I have found is VBA macro that retrieves a list of media files in a folder, I listed the code below.
Trying to write a script to carry out a number of tasks but is there code to enable an Excel to look in a particular file for the list of csv files - carry out the tasks and return the appropriate values in the Excel sheet whilst leaving the original csv files untouched?
Need a way to update a single master file. What happens right now is that the cost manager sends out one file to a lot of different project heads and then on having them return back to him he basically has to individually add in all the data. What i am trying to do is that he somehow carries on sending out the data as there are a lottt of projects and then on returning them they automatically update.
how I can loop through folders to select files starting with a certain word and copy all of them to a different folder and rename them. The folder structure is given below
Company 1(parent folder) North South East(sub folder) West(sub folder) Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec
In the above structure, the files are present inside each folders Jan, feb...Dec under the regions North, South East n west. note that I have to select files starting with "Sales" and copy them into a new folder(say results) and rename copied files as Sales1.xls, Sales2.xls etc. (Files are not present in the folder company1, north, south, east and east.)
I want to allow users to place files (.jpg, .tif, .pdf, .pps etc) into a network folder and then have my program open each file and display it for 30 seconds then close the file and the application before opening the next file.
1. Set up a loop to get a directory listing of the folder and write the listing to a text file.
2. Open up the text file and get the next filename in it
3. Open the file in the associated application
4. Wait for 30 seconds (or some period of time) and then close the file
5. Repeat steps 2-4
DoIt = 1 While DoIt = 1 Open "C:TempList.txt" for output as #1 Print #1, Files In Folder Close #1
Open "C:TempList.txt" for input as #2 while not eof(2) Line input #2, MyFile Display MyFile on screen Wait for 30 seconds Close MyFile and MyApplication that opened it wend Close #2
I can get the directory listing just fine with no problems
I can open the files in the associated application just fine with no problems.
with closing the application after 30 seconds or some period of time.
I need some code that will allow me to easily send it a filename and it will know how to close the file and the application that opened it.
I have an Excel application (Excel 2003) which is stored in the default Program Files folder by the Installer; for example: c:program fileszxchello.xls. The problem I am running into is this file opens as Read Only in Vista and this is interfering with the running of the application. There is no problem opening the file normally in Windows XP.
I have been able to narrow down the cause of this to the User Account Control system in Vista - if I turn OFF User Account Control, the Excel file opens normally and my application functions normally. Is there another option to open the Excel file without turning OFF User Account Control because some users may find it unacceptable to turn OFF this security feature. Ofcourse, one option is to install the application in another location, outside the Program Folder, and the file would open normally, but the Packaging Wizard that I am using to package the application does not allow me to install the application in any other location and thus, the application installs in the Program Folder and I am running into this problem of the Exel file opening as Read Only. Is there a way out of this situation where I can open the file normally (not as Read Only)?
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.

I have a excel file that I enter information into. I have code that saves the files to a certain folder with the name, date, and time stamp for the file name. At the end of the day I might have 3 to 15 excel files I have created that day and I would like to take information from certain cells (examle: L3, B6, B7, B8, G8, and so on) and create a txt file with all of the information in it.
Example: 12/20/2007 Your Name 123 Somewhere St. Here, OH 45111 Home Visit
I is it possible to convert all comma separated text files in a single folder in to excel files. But the requirement is to have 2 sheets in each new file. first to be the full file - with all columns, and in the second sheet to keep only colum A B D G H K L M O P R S T V W from the first sheet. The second sheet name must be the same as the first one but without the first "wlist_" in the name.
One more thing. The third column in the second is called "COUL". there are short letters for colors in french
can they be converted with the sort in English like it goes:
NO = B BA = W RG = R SO = P JA = Y BE = L VE = GY GR = G VI = V MA = BR BJ = TA OR = O
Here is a link to the both CSV and an example excel file with the end result. In this example i haven`t change the shorts for the colors. It takes me too much time with the find and replace function. And at the moment i`m really pushed from time.
I have 50 files each with 1000 numbers in column A.
I need to compare every list with every other list and calculate the Pearson function.
I am ok with the vb code to compare every file with everyother.
I can do this by opening each file then closing but it takes too long.
Each of the 50 csv file names is in my destination workbook
I would like to define an array using the file name, then extract 2 lists without opening the files then perform the pearson function and place the value in the destination workbook. (The pearson function just measures the strength of correlation between 2 sets of numbers)
I have a large number of .txt files that are comma separated files (but not saved with the .csv extension) that I need to convert to files with the .csv extension.
Is there an easy way to do this for all files in a given folder? Ideally, the files don't even need to be opened as they are are quite large in size (70MB+) and there are a lot of them (500+).
I have about 100 Excel files in one folder that need to be saved as text files. They can keep the same name, but simply need to be converted to text files. I'd like to use VBA for this and I can't find examples that do exactly that...or ones that my limited knowledge can handle.
Excel files exist in C:Source and ALL of them should be saved as text files in C:Destination. Maybe there is an easier way, but I thought for sure there was a routine I could use.
I have 22 CSV files. I want to search each of those files for a specific text string (ie: "profile" or "description"). When the macro finds the word in any one of the CSV files I want it to copy that complete csv worksheet and paste it into an excel xls file.
how I can go about doing this. Not also that while vlookup is possible, its very time consuming if i have to do this 50 times over and each time the csv files have different file names. that is why i want to search within a file (each file has its own unique identifying text string)
I have the code below. It openes all csv files within a folder, then delete rows depending on the value of a cell. Now it needs to save the file as a xls file ....
I would like to be able to execute a command line that will convert an Excel csv file to an Excel file that is TAB delimited. In other words, replace the comma delimiter with a TAB delimiter without having to open the file in Excel. I am an inexperienced Excel user
Is there a code that will search a pre-determined folder for all .xls files containing the word "Temp", and deleting those files?
Example: In the root of drive M, I have several Excel files. Anytime one of the original tracking logs is opened, a temp file of that log is automatically created. I would like to automatically search the drive and delete all files containin the word "Temp".
I've attached a picture of the directory tree, in case that will help. The file will always be named "PO Response Tracking - Temp#######.xls", with ###### representing a series of either 5 or 6 numbers.
I can use vlookup to find the info I want, problem is the I need to grab a value from the column before it. I was hoping that i could use Index/Match combo, but the data is not sorted. I was also hoping that somehow, in conjunction with vlookup, I could the CELL() function to at very least tell me which row it found its data in, but I guess CELL() doesn't work that way.
Bottom line: Is there someway to find out what row a value is found on. I already know which column I need and I figure if I can determine the row, I can use INDIRECT() to create the reference. My boss said VBA solutions are not permissable in this case otherwise I could have solved this issue.
Attached is this massive excel spread sheet. It has been pruned so that it can be attached to this posting. It has 27 tabs, users input orders into home unit page (ie Tercero), other sheets interface to form sheets used for deliveries (See Terc Del), production (see Friday), and summary overview (see Campus).
I would like to, using VBA, create a pop-up window that pulls up a print command box that will allow the user to print by day, or by week, print one worksheet or print all. I currently use macro buttons but print the entire page on a given tab. When asked to print a page, It would be great to be able to print column (Fri for ie.) a day say, and print only a item in a column/row that has a numeric value inputted into a cell, all the way down the page. So in this case, see the Terc DEL, print only Friday and only those fields with a number inputted into a cell.
Another option for the DEL sheets could be to print only rows with Data found in columns B,D,F,H,J,L,N tells the macro to print that entire row, to which includes A->O, if that makes sense? By doing this, my hope is to have the document print in a larger font, and column width, as there would be less info per page to deal with, and reduce the amount of paper waste. The headers of the page which is 1->5 would have to be repeated as the document printed. The first actual data field would be row 5.
The source document has a total of 200 rows (see Tercero). Other tabs will have comparable row settings, such Terc-Del, Friday, Campus.
After entering the vba code, testing it and successfully running it, I simply 'saved as" in the excel menu, changing the name.
Now I can't run the macro any more, because the macro is looking for the file with the old original name. I can't even find any references to the old name anywhere whatsoever, within the code itselt, etc. Why does the macro code even know/remember that old name?
I've kind of found similar questions, but I do not understand the answers that people have offered. It seems someone will suggest a chunk of code to add that will say at some point "c:\temp..." etc, but this doesn't make sense to me sense I intend of storing my excel file in a number of places and it won't always have the same reference location.
For now I'd like to ask if there is some general code I can enter or some good code to use as a reference.
I want to select only the cells that have colorinterior = 4 (Green)
Dim Cell As Range For Each Cell In [G:G] If Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 4 Then b = Cell.Address Next Cell
but this code only selects the last cell with green format, my idea is to select the first and the last cell on column G, making b the last cell and a the first cell, to delete afterwards what is between, is there a way on the above code to select only the first cell and not the last one, making the a = first cell and b = last cell?
I have a sheet call Paste and one called look up -
On the lookup tab there is a list of accounts (the numbers of which varies perday) in column B - Using VBA I wish to do a vlookup on tab Paste looking in Column B and returning Column Cs value -
I have tried a few Codes that I have found online but in all cases whenever an account is not found the cose just stops rather than moving to next account
I was trying to use =IF(ISNA(entire_formula_above),"No Match",entire_formula_above) but can't get it to work or struggling with closing off brackets with number of arguments.
Another user in the newsgroup suggested this sample code but I've been unsuccessful in figuring out how to use correctly.
When an .xls file is double clicked, Excel opens with the following error message:
'F:Program.xls could not be found. Check the spelling of the file name, and verify that the file location is correct. If you are trying to open the file from your list of most recently used files on the File menu, make sure that the file has not been renamed, moved, or deleted.
When the dialog box is clicked, another error message is displayed with the same words, but with the file name 'microsoft.xls'.
I have tried un-registering and re-registering Excel, and uninstalling and re-installing all of Office 2003.
