Running Macro Over Multiple XLSX Files
Oct 2, 2013
how to run my Macro over multiple (about 60) .xlsx files. I have been looking around, but haven't quite got anything working yet.
I have all the files in the same folder with similar names (i.e. Subject_01.xlsx, Subject_02.xlsx, etc.).
What I'd like is:
*open Subject_01
*run script (some calculations, copy/pasting, my script for this is working fine)
*save file under a different name (i.e. Subject_01_processed.xlsx)
*close file
*again for Subject_02, Subject_03, etc.
Additionally, I have a second question: after I have the processed .xlsx files, I'd like to copy some cells from each .xlsx file (e.g. A1-H1) to a new file. There, I'd like the data from Subject_01 to for example be in cells A1-H1, from Subject_02 in cells A2-H2, etc.

I would like my macro to go to a certain folder- in this case N:Aexeo ClientsJabre2008Excel Diet Run, open each workbook therein ( to this end I have found the first part of the code below on another thread) and perform the ExcelDietMacro (also below). I am missing something though as nothing is happening, would anyone know from a quick glance what is wrong? Should I have these as 2 seperate Sub End Subs or combined into one? I know that the Excel Diet is correct thanks to the original designer and Rory on the forum for getting it adjusted to my needs.
Also each workbook within the folder will have the same password to open, is it possible to insert some code in the macro to do this automatically?
Sub LoopFiles()
Dim MyFileName, MyPath As String
Dim MyBook As Workbook
MyPath = "N:Aexeo ClientsJabre2008Excel Diet Run"
MyFileName = Dir(MyPath & "*.xls")
Do Until MyFileName = ""
Workbooks.Open MyPath & MyFileName
Set MyBook = ActiveWorkbook
Application.Run "ExcelDietMacro"
MyBook.Save
MyBook.Close
MyFileName = Dir
Loop
End Sub
Sub ExcelDietMacro()

Using Excel 2007:
I am trying to use dir() in a While...wend to get a specific list of files to process, but I want the list to only include those with a .xls extension, not those ending in .xlsx. It seems that the file filter ".xls" doesn't exclude those files with a ".xlsx" extension.
Sample code demonstrating the problem (will show the problem if there is at least one cycle that meets a*.xls and one that meets a*.xlsx).
Is there a workaround to this at the dir() level? Or do I need to go ahead and open the file and test its contents?
Sub TestDir()
On Error GoTo Nofile 'trap cancel, X-out of the dialog, etc.
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogOpen)
.AllowMultiSelect = False
.InitialFileName = "a*.xls"
.Show
GetDir = .SelectedItems(1)
End With
On Error GoTo 0 'reset error handler

I have designed a macro which consists of a form through it takes the input into excel sheet. The macro is running fine and I dont have any problems with it. The problem I am facing is that after I start running this macro, I am not able to access any other open excel files. Is there any option to make all other excel files available during running a macro?

I have this macro that a friend of mine wrote on a windows machine, and I can't quite figure out the code changes needed for OS X. For someone who knows how to do this, I'm sure it would only take a second, but I've been banging my head against the wall on this thing for too long.
Option Base 1
Sub Data_Compiler()
Dim FileSelected
Dim FileName
Dim CompiledDataArray(1 To 30, 1 To 53) ' Array to store our statistics
Dim Counter1 As Integer
Counter1 = 1
FileSelected = Application. GetOpenFilename("Your Files,*.xls", , "Select Files", , True)
If StrComp(TypeName(FileSelected), "boolean", vbTextCompare) = 0 Then Exit Sub
For Each FileName In FileSelected
Application.DisplayAlerts = False................
I can get a "open files" dialogue box to pop up, but I can't figure out how to make sure that multiselect is enabled. I need to be able to run this macro on 11 files at once.

I am currently using some of Mr. Excels macro coding to firstly create consecutive invoice numbers and secondly save the new file into a destination folder and clear out the cells that have had data in them. This part seems to work flawlessly. I have noticed though that the new .xlsx file has the macro buttons viewable on it and to me looks unprofessional if i send out an invoice to a customer that has the buttons shown. So my resolution is to export the file as a PDF rather than the .xlsx.
My code is as follows
Code:
Sub NextInvoice() Range("H13").Value = Range("H13").Value + 1
Range("B24:H43").ClearContents
End Sub
Sub SaveInvWithNewName()
Dim NewFN As Variant
' Copy Invoice to a new workbook

I have approximately 30 workbooks for which i open and run a macro to change the look and feel for client perusal.
I normally open each of the 30 workbooks and run the macro for each one.
Is there a way I can run the macro to apply to all workbooks at once?

I am seeking code that will go to Sheet 4 (named "Extract"), copy a1:a5 and return to the active cell the macro was launched from and copy the values in.
The challenge I am having is how to get the code to return back to the cell it was launched from since I want the flexibility to use this macro in multiple tabs/sheets to copy the info into ANY selected cell within ANY sheet. As it is now, I have to go change the sheet name each time for the then active sheet.
I've attempted to insert a generic worksheet reference, however I end up with a debug issue.

I need to run a very simple macro (filter by date, copy, and paste) on every worksheet in a workbook, and then place that data into a summary page at the "end" of the workbook. Most other posts had to do with some kind of formatting that would work in succession on the sheets linearly from left to right (for lack of a better way to put it). My problem, however, is that the data would need to be pasted into the summary worksheet, and then somehow the macro would come back to the next sheet (after the one it just did) and do it all over again, so on and so forth. The worksheets are arranged alphabetically, but other than that there is no sort of easily identifiable progression between them (i.e. Sheet1, Sheet 2, etc.).

I have 3 seperate macros (macro1, macro2, macro3) that have to be run in order. Is it possible to create a macro to run them in order and what would the code look like? I will have it assigned to a button on the worksheet.

I am trying to find a way to set up a macro that will allow me to pull in data - create the Pivot table - delete the table - then pull in fresh data (of a different row length - same number of columns) and create another Pivot table. I have tried to manipulate recorded code to no avail. Here is what I am starting with:
Const lngLastPossRow As Long = 65536
Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(Cells(lngLastPossRow, 1).End(xlUp).Row, 24)).Name = "Data"
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:="Data"). _
CreatePivotTable TableDestination:="", TableName:="PivotTable2", _
DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion10
ActiveSheet.PivotTableWizard TableDestination:=ActiveSheet.Cells(3, 1)
ActiveSheet.Cells(3, 1).Select
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").AddFields RowFields:=Array(" ", _
"Channel", "Sales/Exchange", "Mode of transp.", "Sold-to Party", "Material", "Data")
While it creates the first pivot table fine, after deleting it and starting again it wants to create the next sequence (PivotTable3) which crashes the macro. I must close the file and reopen to run it again.

When I prepare a file with macro's (to be used by other people), I save this file as a template with macro's with the extension *.xltm (template with macro).
Therefore no one can overwrite my file. These other people can open this template (e.g. double-click, but not file-open). But when these people save this file, Excel automatically saves it as a normal Excel-file with the extension *.xlsx.
Ok, a message is seen after pressing <enter> or clicking Save, but does normal users know, what they have to do then?
If I'm making a template with macro's, I want Excel to have this file saved as a file with macro's. Whatever did I make a file with macro's for? Is this a bug or is it done on purpose?

I want to be able to select a cell, for example A10, this would then run a macro that would copy and paste several cells of information along that row and paste it on another worksheet. However, if i then choose a15, a3, a79 in turn (using the control key), it would run the macro using those rows in turn.
i'm looking forward to hearing if and particuliar how this could be achieved.

I have a macro that duplicates a excel file into how ever many files I need... so If I need 150 copies of the the file, it will make it 150 times.
However, each file the first tab called "Clients" has information that I want protected so users can't alter it. I can't protect it before I run the duplication because the data is added by a group of people and I need it unprotected until they add the information.
What I am looking for is a macro that I can click and run, allows me to select multiple files, then it will automatically Protect Sheet 1 "Clients" on all the files I select so I don't have to open all 150 files after data is entered and Protect sheet 1 manually.

I have twenty individual txt files. I want excel to open each, sort them according to certain parameteres, and then i want excel to populate all 20 of these into 1 workbook with 20different worksheets. Each worksheet tab to be called by either the same name as the txt file or a name established using a form. The twenty files can always be called the same name, and rarely will i will add a new file or will I remove a file. But sometimes, i may only want to run a couple files....

I have 400ish departmental budget files in a folder that I need to upload to a Sharepoint doc library. The files in the folder will have to exactly match the files we already have set up in sharepoint in order to upload them to the sharepoint site. As it stands now there is only one consistency between the sharepoint files and the budget files in the folder, which is the department number (which every file in both begins with).
I'm thinking some sort of macro will let me insert a sheet into each of the files in the budget folder, which would have a formula that pulls the department number from a certain sheet in the file, and produce the file name I want into a certain cell. Then I would like a macro that goes into each file and renames it based on that cell. I'd like to know if this is possible and if there may be a better way to do it.

I have a collection of about 200 .xls files in a folder, each contain the same macro. I now need to run this macro in all 200 files and save them but to do this manually will take hours. is there anyway to set excel to batch process a macro in multiple files?? Or maybe i can write a new macro to open up each workbook, run, then save and exit??

Im trying to get my macro to open allow me to select multiple workbooks, then have each workbook open up and copy A2:N2 and down and paste these into my active workbook, under each other, ie on the next available row (basically combining all the workbook data together to create a big list.
The below code works to open a single workbook, copy the data and paste it in at the next available row, but I have to keep running the macro for each workbook whos data I need to import!
How can I modify this code so I can select more than one file? I need something like for each wb .....at the end next wb...until the macro has done the below for all selected workbooks.
VB:
Sub openandcopy()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = ActiveSheet
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Application.GetOpenFilename)

Excel 2010, Windows 7
I have a whole ton of *.dbf files (98 to be exact), that are from ArcGIS shapefiles. These date1_date2.dbf files have point names, and values, as shown below.
NAMERASTERVALU
Point 1-9999.00000000
Point 2-9999.00000000
Point 3-9999.00000000
Point 4-4.93072701
Point 5-8.90071201
I'm trying to figure out how to transpose each of the dbf files and save them as a text file (tab deliminated). My original plan involved saving them all as text files, then using a convoluted Unix script (I'm what you call a "dirty programmer") to transpose them and then combine them all into a single file. Since there are so many files (and I plan to do this in the future as well), I thought if I could at least automate the text file creation, I'd be ahead of the game. Even better would be a macro that will transpose the data for EACH file, then create a 99 (98 files + header row) row, 5 column text file. Creating the text files (1 text file for each dbf file) automatically .
All the *.dbf files will have exactly the same # rows/columns (2 columns, 6 rows)
This is what I've tried so far.
1)open one of the dbf files in Excel
2)record my marco (using the Personal Macro Workbook option - so it will be available in any workbook)
2a) transpose data (and paste it right below the original data so that the new data is in rows 7 and 8 of the same file)
2b) save as text file (tab deliminated)
2c) stop recording, and end up with this:
NAMERASTERVALU
Point 1-9999.00000000
Point 2-9999.00000000
Point 3-9999.00000000
Point 4-4.93072701
Point 5-8.90071201
NAMEPoint 1Point 2Point 3Point 4Point 5
RASTERVALU-9999.00000000-9999.00000000-9999.00000000-4.93072701-8.90071201
So now I want to apply the macro I just created to all open workbooks (after I bring in all the bdf files), but the macro isn't listed when I click the "view macros" button. All I want to do is apply the steps I recorded in the macro to all open workbooks.

I am currently attempting to use an excel macro to allow me to send a list of files to one person. I have managed to create a dynamic list where one sheet of the workbook has the list of files and checkboxes, and as certain ones are selected they appear in a list on the 'front sheet' of my workbook, which has the button to send the email.
My front sheet is set up in a way that in cell B3 I have the desired email address, B4 contains the subject and from B5 to B30 I have the list of selected attachments (although the length of the list obviously varies depending on the amount of files selected, when all are selected the list extends to B30).
I have the below vba code that allows me to create an email with the address and subject and attaches the file address from cell B5, but I would like to attach all the files in the list and am struggling to change the code to do so.
Code:
Sub CreateMail()
Dim objOutlook As Object
Dim objMail As Object
Dim rngTo As Range
Dim rngSubject As Range
Dim rngAttach As Range
Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
[Code] ........
I can add more by creating new ranges (rngAttach1, rngAttach2, rngAttach3 etc) and setting these to their respective locations but if, for example, only two files are selected, the list only covers cells B5 and B6, so when the macro looks up the file directory in B7 (rngAttach3) it returns an error because obviously there is nothing for it to find.
I have attempted to compile a loop and change the code to the version shown below but am having no luck.
Code:
Sub CreateMail()
Dim objOutlook As Object
Dim objMail As Object
Dim rngTo As Range
Dim rngSubject As Variant
Dim rngAttach As String
Dim iLoop As Long
[Code] ....

I receive a daily bath of 6 files (for now lets calls them 1.csv, 2.csv 3.csv etc...)
I have to manually open these select all the data and then paste them into a single worksheet in a different xls file (called master.xls).
I am trying to figure out some vba that will open each .csv file, copy the data and append to the end of worksheet 1 in master.xls. Ideally i would also like it to paste the name of the .csv it has copied the data to in column A of master.xls
Also, the .csv files will not always contain data, occasionally some will be blank.
Both .csv and master.xls will be stored in the same folder.

I need a macro which collects data from two files and dumps it into a separate spreadsheet. I need it to prompt the user to select the two files, since the file names may change.
Once a user selects the files, the macro simply opens them, grabs the data (the data sits on a single sheet in each file) and pastes it into a file, and closes the 2 data files.
The Data sits in A7:N20 on both files.
