View 2 RepliesI 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 have written the following simple macro to import some data into a worksheet and then prompt the user to save the file in Excel 2003 format (the system to which we will upload this data does not accept formats later than 2003). The template is in "*.xlsm" format.
The code executes without error, but when the user hits the "Save" button in the "Save As" dialog box, nothing happens. The "Save As" box closes, but no file is saved.
Code:
Private Sub cmdImportData_Click()
Dim sFName As String
'On Error Resume Next
PrepData
CopyData
FormatColumns
'prompt the user to save the file in "*.xls" format
sFName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename("upload", "Excel files (*.xls), *.xls")
End Sub
When I click on an image I want to run a macro that does the following:
Save as - PDF
The name of the PDF is to be "Order Confirmation VALUE" the Value is the first 5 numbers of the file name.
So if the file name was 19876 it would save the PDF as Order Confirmation 19876
If this isn't possible can I take a value from a cell?
I usually copy a macros from the net. My problem is I need a macro to copy a worksheet to a new workbook and save it with the name which would come from a cell which is the result of concatenation of two other cells. The macro would need to close the new workbook and revert to the original workbook. Also if it could automatically overwrite the previous copied workbook.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a pretty simple spreadsheet (because I'm not an expert on excel) to track temp staffing requirements each week over a year. It only has about 150 rows and a bunch of columns but when I try to make it bigger (add more rows so I can put about 70 staffing positions instead of 19) it will not save (cannot save all of the data and formatting). I have read on the microsoft site that there are limits to data formatting, but it describes over 2000 rows?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'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 need to be able to save a workbook by running a marco and it save the file automatically by pulling what ever the value of cell A1 is.
Ex: I want to run the macro and it save my excel workbook in C:Documents as (Value of Cell A1) What code would you put into Visual Basic.
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).

Now I would like to change my macro to pause when the file is saving to allow the user to enter a file name. If that is not possible, I'd like to reference a cell to use as the file name. I have gone through other posts and tried changing my macro, but always get an error. I am using Excel 2010. Following is my code for saving to pdf.

I'm trying to record a macro that calls up the saveas dialogue and uses a filename from a cell (it's the w/c date). I can start recording the macro, open the dialogue box and copy the contents of the cell but i can't get it to paste as the filname.
What I'm trying to achieve is to allow users of a muli-sheet workbook to be able to click on a 'save' button on any sheet and have the workbook save with a filename which includes the current week commencing date. This way all the weeks changes will be in just one file and from the following monday a new file will be started the the old one left alone as an archive.
have seen macros that create a seperate sheet & save by tab number etc, & wonder if its possible to save each sheet in a workbook as the value defined in each sheets cell A2. is there a vb macro available to do that ? if so where ?
View 9 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.
Windows("VCS.xls").Activate
Range("C6:C20").Select
With Selection.Validation
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlValidateCustom, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=aantal.als($C$6:$C$20;C6)=1"
.IgnoreBlank = True
.InCellDropdown = True
.InputTitle = ""
.ErrorTitle = ""
.InputMessage = ""
.ErrorMessage = ""
.ShowInput = True
.ShowError = True
End With
When i start this macro i get an error in line ".Add Type:=xlValidateCustom, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=aantal.als($C$6:$C$20;C6)=1" (aantal.als = count.if)
The error i get is 1004, "Door de toepassing of door object gedefineerde fout".
Sorry i don't know what the english translation is.
When i put this validation manualy it's working fine, what's wrong in the code, am i missing something?
I currently use the following code to create a duplicate file based on two cells within a directory and folder i specify. These cells consist of the team and week commencing date (mondays date of week which is cell 'Main Menu'!K8)
View 7 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to disable all error pop up messages from coming up due to an invalid entry in a cell that has data validation? So when a user types in a value, it doesn't pop up saying "retry, cancel, etc"? Just to save time and make it more user friendly, it would be nice to just dis-allow the entry, so when someone types an incorrect entry it just erases it or stays on the cell and keeps it highlighted but doesn't let you click away...something like that. This would be applied to the whole workbook and is for XL07.

Derk suggested "That error occurs when the activecell has no validation. Some of the properties return as "codes" so you will need to figure out what say -1 means for alertstyle." I do not know how to test for this.
I got an error message that I cannot save while debugging. But I have repeatedly hit the stop icon to stop debugging!
I have minimized all the windows (except the spreadsheet as it does not allow me select it and just beeps) to make sure there are no hidden message boxes.
I do not want to force exit and lose my work but I cannot get out of debug mode for some reason!
I'm trying to create a macro that will take a worksheet from an Excel workbook, and save it as a text file, with the name determined from user input, and the location being the desktop of the currnet user's computer.
First I use a function, (provided by RoyUK), to get the name of the current desktop, then I try to use that name, along with my user input, so save the file. Obviously, it's not working, or I wouldn't be here. I get a "Run-time error '1004': The file could nto be accessed". I think it's just a syntax issue with the file name, because debug takes me to the "SaveAs" portion of the macro.
I have got the code below, I am trying to save as file name with it ending with upload, however I am getting run time error 91,
'Worksheet save as upload name
Dim Wk As Workbook
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=FileDrive & Wk.Name & "Uploads" & ".xls", _
FileFormat:=xlNormal
Here is my existing code...
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Application. ScreenUpdating=False
' Cancel user prompted save procedure
Cancel = True
' Code removed... changes some values and settings before saving
ThisWorkbook.Save
' Code removed... return the original values and settings
Application.ScreenUpdating=True
End Sub
For some reason, the workbook is not being saved when the above code is executed. It seems the problem lies with "ThisWorkbook.Save"... in that it just isn't saving! If I delete "Cancel=True", the workbook will save (obviously!).
I have spent an hour trying to work this out and have come to the conclusion that it is something other than my code... has anyone experienced this problem before?
I am currently creating a form to hold 2 drop down lists that change depending on the selection in the first one. I had never done this before and taught myself and got it to work minus one problem. As soon as I input the formula under the Data Validation the error: "The Source currently evaluates to an error. Do you want to continue?" pops up. Right now the formula works except for the last 6 options in my first drop down. When I select them nothing pops up in the 2nd drop down menu. I have double checked and triple checked that I have no spaces or anything in my LIST on worksheet 2 or any of the names are input correctly.
A7 is the first drop down - PROPOSED
B7 the second. - ITEM #
Lists and data to populate the lists are on worksheet 2 with the "List" at the bottom of worksheet 2...
I have created a daily operating room schedule in which each time slot has a drop down box for the Doctor doing the procedure and the Group of doctors from which he/she came.
It is a yearly schedule with each day of each month duplicated on a tab for that month - the same daily schedule for each.
I have been able to duplicate each day right up until the 25th of the month in which I attempt to save the spreadsheet and am given an error stating it can not save some of the data, though the data appears to be intact (the validation drop down lists)
Upon closing and reopening the spreadsheet, all of the cells that contain validation including and after the 25th of the month are simply gone.
I have attempted to attach a copy of the file but I keep encountering an error with the database.
Zip file with xls file has been added
I'm working on a function that gets its values from a Data Validation List.
My problem is that I want the function to return a value when an item in the list is selected and another if the user did not make a selection... just a basic if....then....else ... but the cell where I call this function shows the #VALUE! error while no item in the list is selected.
I call the function like this:
=myFunction(RC[-5], RC[-2])
where RC[-5] is the Data Validation List and RC[-2] is a cell where the user should enter a number
why I'm getting the #VALUE! error instead of my message
The function basically looks like this:
I have a excel document that is very heavy with Data Validation List Boxes. Below is just one example. Error handling is what I am trying to figure out.
Description:
I have 3 List Boxes.
One list box data is based on data selected in the previous list box.
1st List Box uses this formula: =Series
2nd List Box uses this formula: =INDIRECT($C$2)
3rd List Box uses this formula: =INDIRECT($C$3)
It all works! HOWEVER....
If user decides to go back and change selection in first or second list box, and forgets to change the data in the second or third box, then data will be incorrect. How do I solve this problem?
Is there anyway to write something so it would give them an error message and instructing them to correct the data?
I am trying to take the template I have created and after the information is entered, if all required is not filled in, it will highlight the cells that need filled in. I get a debug error on
