Save / Convert XML Files In Excel Format Without Open Them Into XLS?

Oct 11, 2011

Is there a way to convert all files in folder, in this case, xml in excel format to xls without open them?

I recorded the macro below, but this needs to "Open" and "SaveAs" the current file in folder and there are a few thousands of xml files in folder.

I was wondering if through some ADO or VBA code this can be done without open the files in order to save resources and get the work done faster?

Code:
Sub Convert_XML_to_XLS()

Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:MyPathInputFile.xml"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:MyPathInputFile.xlsx" _
, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook, CreateBackup:=False '
End Sub

Open/Update Linked Files, Convert To Values & Save To New Folder

May 21, 2008

I have a number of spreadsheets in a folder called country (each sheet is the name of a region). These sheets are linked to another sheet called master which is in another folder.

The regional sheets all have a list of wrap codes and pull details specific to each code from the master sheet. All wrap codes for all sheets are stored in the master, details for wrpas are manually entered here as well as any other associated information.

The link is kept by way of an index match formula used to populate information from the master for all wrap codes in the regional sheet.

Each of the regional sheets act as a report for a specific region and the master is the main source. Every week we need to open the regional sheets (some reside in different folders/subfolders) update the index match formulas in the sheet so that the data is refreshed and then save as a new file with data as values to another folder for reporting.

I am looking for a code that can automatically update all of the excel sheets in a given folder and then save them to a new folder automatically.

I have very very limited knowledge of VB (did make a hello world dialog box once) and am stuck as to any way to automate this process.

Dec 7, 2013

I have some daily text files in a folder (so about 30 of them each month), which in the end of month, I need to open them up in excel, format them so that I can use the information for my analysis.

I would like to create a macro, to quickly open them all up at once and save them each individually in .xls or .xlsm format.

I am new to VBA and after some research online, I was able to have the files open with the following code. but now I don't know how to proceed further to save them one by one with the same name but in .xls or .xlsm format.

Sub Opentxtfiles()
Dim MyFolder As String
Dim myfile As String

Excel 2007 :: (Save Files In Format) Settings Keeps Changing

Sep 28, 2011

I am having trouble getting Excel 2007 on my work computer to save as .xlsx by default.

I have opened the Office Button > Excel Options > Save > Save files in this format and selected "Excel Workbook (*.xlsx)," and if I save as before closing Excel then it works perfect and saves the file as .xlsx. However if I close Excel, re-open it later and save a new file the default "Save as type:" is "Excel 97-2003 Workbook (*.xls)" and if I open the save options again the "Save files in this format" option is reverted back to "Excel 97-2003 Workbook (*.xls)."

I have finally overcome the [Compatibility Mode] issue by saving a file named "Book.xltx" (not "Book1.xltx") in the two default locations "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice12XLSTART" and "D:Documents and SettingsusernameApplication DataMicrosoftExcelXLSTART" (we use the D: drive at work for personal files). I thought this would solve the save as issue but it hasn't. I have also changed the "Save files in this format" before saving the .xltx files in the locations to apply the settings to those specific files but that hasn't worked.

It is on my work computer so I am limited in what settings I can change because they have them pretty well locked down.

Excel 2010 :: Can't Save Custom Table Style Format So That It Is Available Next Time When Open Workbook

Open, Edit, Save Macro - Various Files

i've got the code below, and if you notice the directory and file line, I want a loop that'll do what the macro below does, but also for files j1k2-j1k200. I'm hoping there's a macro that'll be able to do this, as I don't want to have to copy, paste and edit the same macro below 200 times!

Application. ScreenUpdating = False ' turn off the screen updating
Set wb = Workbooks.Open("C:Uni StuffStocks_J20j1ka.xls", False, False)
Sheets("Sheet1").Select

Selection.Replace What:="]w1", Replacement:="]w2", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
wb.Close True ' close the source workbook saving any changes

I am trying to use a shell command to dig into a specified directory (and ideally all sub-directories) and open every pdf file and re-save with security settings changed (adding a password to prevent printing). I can't seem to get the shell command to run from where it is:

Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Set Fld = FSO.GetFolder(MainFolderName)
For Each Fil In Fld.Files
i = i + 1
RetVal = Shell("C:Program FilesAdobeAcrobat 7.0
_&AcrobatAcrobat.exe MainFolderName & " " & Fil. Name")
Next
'have to add save the file, and change the print settings but not figured that out yet

Convert Files To 2003 Format

Feb 24, 2009

I've been asked to change a massive batch of Excel 2007 files to 2003 format (to send to a client who doesn't have the newer version). Apart from going into these files (there's over 500 of 'em ), can anyone suggest a means of doing this? I know that Microsoft has a Migration Manager tool, but it appears this only converts the other way around.

Convert All CSV Files In A Folder To Excel Files?

Apr 8, 2014

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.

Save Different Tab Excel To Individual Text Files?

Nov 14, 2013

I want to get a vba which will convert an excel with different tabs to individual text files. IT MUST BE PIPE DELIMITED.

So if there is an .xls file with 5 different tabs, i should get 5 text files with each text file getting name of the worksheet it was created from.

I have a similar code but somehow it is doing the conversion only for last worksheet, also it is saving the file in the same name as workbook.

Code:
Sub save_as_text()
Dim i As Long, txt As String, delim As String
delim = "|"
With ActiveSheet.UsedRange
For i = 1 To .Rows.Count
txt = txt & vbCrLf & _
Join(Evaluate("transpose(transpose(" & .Rows(i).Address & "))"), delim)
Next
End With
Open Replace(ThisWorkbook.FullName, ".xls", ".txt") For Output As #1
Print #1, Mid$(txt, 2)
Close #1
End Sub

How To Open Files From Excel List Using VBA

I want to open files from an excel list.

Excel 2010 :: How To Open Files From FTP Location

Nov 19, 2012

I am using xp pro, excel 2010 and the ftp server has linux installed. To open files from server I press open button in excel, then choose ftp location from drop down menu. FTP logon box asks password with the option of default user selected. I provide password and go on.

Some days ago something happened, I don't know what but as a result of it when I opened the FTP logon box, the anonymous option was selected by default. So I selected user option, gave id password and hit ok. It did not connect. Then I removed that ftp location from excel ftp locations. Whenever I tried to add an ftp location, excel restarted stating error message " *** encountered a problem *** ". So I reached a site after some googling and was directed to add the whole ftp file location path in the "File name" box of the open dialog box. It worked and the ftp location was automatically added in ftp locations. [ any ftp setting in excel is automatically transferred to ms word as well]

PROBLEM > Now I have a different problem. I can access ftp folders and subfolders but when I select a file and click open, downloading bar at the bottom of the excel does not start and after a long wait an error message pops up " the internet address ' ftp://192.168.****/folder/subfolder/filename.xls" is not valid. [I can open ftp files using filezilla etc]

Excel 2007 :: How To Open Different Files On Each Of Two Monitors

Feb 15, 2013

I run two monitors and am able to open different files on each monitor which is very handy.

This doesn't seem to work with Excel. If I have two different Excel files open I can only view one at a time. I can move across to the other monitor, but then can only view one at a time on that monitor - very frustrating.

When I was using Excel 2010 on my last job I was shown a clunky, round-about way of being able to open two Excel files, one on each monitor. (By opening one file, opening a new Excel document from there, and then opening the other Excel file from the new document, minimizing that file and dragging it to the other screen).

Now I am using Excel 2007 and am not able to view two different Excel files, one on each screen. how I can do this in Excel 2007?

Setting To Open Files In New Instance Of Excel?

Jan 10, 2011

I would really like excel to open files in a new instance of excel by default. Currently the only way I can do this is by starting excel and then File->Open. While this is only a little bit of extra effort, I've recently gotten in the habit of opening and closing 100s csv files daily and the wasted time really adds up. I've read several threads here, but mostly found people trying to accomplish the opposite of what I am.
