I would like a macro that will call up the SAVE AS dialogue box and populate it based on the contents of a cell. So far, I can save the file with a name taken from a cell but I'd like the user to be able to choose the location. I haven't been able to crack that yet.
View 9 RepliesI have written a macro which opens a worksheet, performs various operations on it, and closes it again. The problem is that upon close, two separate dialogue boxes appear - one asking me if I want to save, the other asking me if I want to keep what I have copied in the clipboard.
Is there a way of answering these dialogue boxes (or suppressing them) from withint he macro, so I do not need to manually click on Yes or No each time the macro is run?
I am looking for a VB Code that will populate the Save As Dialogue Box, and it will have a file name prefilled, MacroEnabled.
For example (MyFile_123.xlsm)
Using Excel 2007
I have made a macro in a xltm book that will open the "Save As" dialogue but I would like it to default to xls file type instead of the user having to select it in the drop down box.
In addition to this I would like it to name the file based on a returned "=NOW ()" function from a cell (sheet1!G13) that has been mdms date formated which returns an unique document number each time for our reference.
Here's the code so far which works fine for the "save as" dialogue box part
I have a vba procedure that concatenates the name I want to use as the file name and stores it in a variable named ""NuFileNm".
Is there a way to have the vba open the "Save As" dialogue box and enter the NuFileNm string into the "File Name" box ready for me to manually specify where I want to save it?
I'm trying to make a macro check if a file has been saved (ever). If so I want the macro to do a regular save (with already esatablished filename and location) before it proceeds with the rest of the macro. If the file hasnt been saved (if it runs from a new workbook) then I want it to pop up the save.as dialog, so that the user can choose the name and location of the file before the macro continues .
The macro itself is saved in personal.xlsx.
I'm trying to have a macro that opens the save as window, places the name in cell f5 and then allows you to save the workbook with cell f5 as the filename. I have managed to get the save as window to come up and the cell f5 as the name, but when I press save is doesn't. Here is what I have (also, is there a way to direct this to a specific folder).

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a range of cells in a column where I put in properties of contents of another range of cells. If i put in the word "broken" in any of those cells (say B12) i like to have an input dialogue box popping up automatically. This is where the user 1 is supposed to give a brief description of the broken item.
The next user, 2, (which repairs the broken item) shall gain access to the written info made by the first user just by selecting cell B12. I like it to be a MSG Box that pops up automatically when the cell is selected. Just to clarify: The MSG box shall contain the words written in the dialogue box by user 1.
Does anybody have a clue how to achieve this?
I have this code, the problem is when I try to cancel the Open File dialogue it gives me an application defined error and I tried it a dozen ways and it keeps giving me the same thing.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that copy one sheet of the Active workbook and sends it via email.
I need to add a code in this sheet so when one opens it from the email, with a command button to be able to save the file to specific, fixed folder on the local network with it’s original file name.
Yes, another homework for you guys. I have found the code to open the "Find and Replace" dialogue box but is it possible to open it with "within:" Workbook instead of Sheet?
This is the code that open up the dialogue box ..
I am importing a text file that has a lot more than 256 columns. The data will be updated weekly with a different text file. I know how to get past the 256 column limit when importing a text file like this. This link explains the method I am using to import the text file. [url] Since I am importing onto several sheets I get the dialogue box asking me to choose a file to import from for every sheet when I use RefreshAll. The same file that is used by the first sheet will be used by the rest of the sheets. Each sheet just imports a different section of columns from the text file. I want to avoid choosing the same file 30 plus times (once for each sheet) when I click refresh all. Is there a code that would allow me to choose the file for the first sheet, and the other sheets would follow suite?
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy spreadsheet has 32 worksheets, I've recorded a macro to do the job "save, save as with specific name", but what I want is, when save as, I wanted the file name increase in one number, and the date in a specific range "H8:J8" the date should be the next saturday.
here is part of the code.
Range("D11:J65").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("J44").Select
Sheets("NsFri").Select
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-12
Range("A12:A21,D12:I21").Select
on this example I want the file saved as "PrA4W05.xls", being the next week "PrA4W06.xls", and so on.
and on "H8:J8" the next saturday.
I am trying to create a macro to run from a form button, within a report, to save a file to a variable file path and name depending on the date value in cell B5.
The format of B5 looks like - 13/08/2014 16:39
The file path has folders for each year in format "yyyy" with each year having sub folders for each month in format "mm".
The file name is just the date only and is formatted "dd.mm.yy" e.g. 13.08.14
I have tried the code below in various permutations but always end up with an error - Method 'SaveAs' of object '_Workbook' failed.

I am trying to make a save&close workbook macro.
I found several examples on google, but unfortunatly it conflicts with another macro I use for forceing users to enable macros (hide all sheets except one if macros are disabled).
The attached file is an example contaning the save&close code and the show/hide sheets depending on macros enabled.
If the file is opened with macros disabled then only one sheet will be visible.
If the file is opened with macros enabled other sheets are visible.
The problem if that this code uses a custom save, witch makes the save&close not save... (in module1 and in ThisWorkbook)
The pourpose of the save&close is to make sure some users don't forget the excel open and thus block access to it. So if a certain idele time passes excel has to save and close without any confirmation messages.
I have a sheet named "Fittings Summary" with an export button. I need some code that will copy range A1:G38 of the fitting summary sheet then open a dialogue box asking for the following "Please Enter Tag No" once a tag number is entered I would like a new sheet to be created in the same workbook named with the tag no entered previously then the copied cells pasted into it. I would like to keep the formatting of the cells but not the formulas within.

I looked for awhile for a if.then macro that might solve my question, did not see anything that fit.
I want to specify a button that have the function of prompting the user to save the file as new file name. I tried to do the record macro, but I think it's not working as I wanted to. Can any expert teach me the code? As I was creating a standard form (excel file), I don't want the users to overwrite the current file name.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI work with a read-only template, and desperately need a macro that would save it as a workbook, and every worksheet of it as a separate txt file, then close the whole thing.
I will be re-using that workbook it just saved again, and I want to have the same macro there as well (that it should save my workbook as workbook and every worksheet as a separate txt file).
In My sheet I would like to check to make sure col 15 is true before going through the process of adding the contents of each row from col 6 - 10 to column 5. (Col 5 could already contain values)
This is my
Private Sub Workbook_ThisWorkbook(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, cancel As Boolean)
BeginRow = 8
EndRow = 87
ChkCol = 15
BeginCol = 6
EndCol = 10
For RowCnt = BeginRow To EndRow

For RowCnt = BeginRow To EndRow
Cells(RowCnt, 5).Value = Cells(RowCnt, 5).Value + Cells(RowCnt, ColCnt).Value

when I record a macro in excel and assign it to a command button, it does not save and have to keep recording it when I open up the workbook again. I notice when i close out of the script editor after saving, the debugger box does not pop up when on most occassions it does.
This does not happen all the time, just some of the time which makes absolutely no sense to me. I have double checked to make sure the module is saved under the current workbook, i have tried saving the script to my personal macro workbook (XLSTART), i have tried saving the file on a shared drive and my desktop, but nothing seems to work. The workbook is not protected and am at a complete loss.
so i can save the macro and try (usually unsuccessfully) to change it.

I have a 4 sheet workbook. 3rd and 4th are hidden running formulas. These hidden sheets have macros that creates a new file from each (the macros deleted unwanted rows in the files, then save as a seperate file and format [.mht and .csv respectively]). Everything functions properly, except the problem is, I need to make sure the changes to sheet 1 are saved, but when I save the file, the changes to 3 and 4 are saved, and I lose the formulas.

[Code] .......
This code is supposed to apply the TRIM function to every worksheet in the workbook when the user presses save, and the saves the results. I understand the Private Sub bit is the code to have the macro run during the save, but for some reason the macro itself isn't actually running. I'm not getting any error message, its just that the cells which should have the TRIM function applied to them aren't being corrected.
I have a problem in saving multiple pdfs from excel. I am posting a sheet here. First sheet has the employee details. Second sheet have the template for payslip. My aim is to save pdfs of templates of all the employee in the list using a macro.
currently i am doing it as
1. In sheet 2, I lookup each employee using the serial number of employees at the top left corner cell of the template.
2. Once the details are updated in sheet 2 i save it as pdf in my desktop.
The problem with recording macro and looping is that the pdfs are overwritting and the last pdf alone is saved. i could not find how to change the pdf name for every loop.
I need a macro that will save the range of cells with values as a pdf and saved as the sheet name. I have a macro that does a print preview function based on the cells that contain values. It works great, but instead I just need this to be saved as a pdf.
This is what I have:
