I have VBA program that collect the data from database and make a report.(I will mention I open the browser to look for database )
Here is a problem:
My original file is " Daily Report.xlt(template) " .At the begin when I open this file ,the file name appear as a " Daily Report1 "...This is not big deal
When I run macros I need to keep some info on the original file.
After I done, I have following code to save as " Daily Report.xlt " .
but the actual problem is ;the code save this file on the database path that I don't want it.Actually I want to overwrite on original file to keep that file up to date.Here is code
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"Daily Report.XLT", _
FileFormat:=xlTemplate, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
Note:I know I can add the path in front of the file name and save it in the that directory .Different customer different path I can not use fix directory.
I need to copy the sheet being worked on, and place it behind the original sheet.
This is going to be in a Macro enabled template that other users will be rename when they save it.
It will be activated by a button on the original worksheet other users may need to rename the worksheet before copying so I am using ActiveSheet.Copy I don't want to put the sheet after a counted sheet, because other sheets may be inserted before the one being worked on. I am not proficient at VB, I basically search for a macro that does what I need and copy it.
This is what I am working on.
Sub CopySSR() ' ' CopySSR Macro ' ' ActiveSheet.Copy After:=Sheets(7) End Sub
I don't believe this is possible but I've been wrong before.. Is it at all possible to Kill the current workbook using VBA? I " saved as" in another location and do not wish to keep the current workbook.
I was wondering if it is possible to have a macro running that will automatically save a .csv file to specific location and close the file. I would like to have the macro running so that as the files are opened they will be automatically saved to this location.
I'm trying to save a copy an excel file in the same directory of the original file. The code is pretty standard but it does not work if the file is stored in C: (only c: ) Is that a bug or am I doing something wrong? Anyways here is the code in case someone is interested in trying it out:
Sub CreateCopy() ChDrive ThisWorkbook.Path ChDir ThisWorkbook.Path fileSaveName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename( _ fileFilter:="Excel Files (*.xls), *.xls", _ InitialFileName:="CMS_" & Format(Now(), "mm-dd-yyyy")) If fileSaveName <> False Then MsgBox "Backup copy saved as: " & fileSaveName End If End Sub
I want to have a user press a button on a worksheet page to save a copy of the workbook (and be able to name it and choose where to save it to) without closing or modifying the original. Note that if you "save as" manually it renames the workbook and closes the original.
I am trying to sort a macro out to save my sheet the same as the original when the button is clicked. When i try it from one location it is fine but from another location i get a print error, the error says prit quality is not right, when i debug it highlights: Print Quality = 600 I have tried changing it but keep getting the same error. Their maybe an easier way to do this but not being very good on VB i dont know what to do. This file is on a server and will be accessed from different locations.
The problem is when I highlight a row with some color the original color of the row is gone, so I tried this code, and again, it's removing the original format and color for the row This is the code from McGimpsey & Associates : Excel : Highlight row with background colors
Code: PrivateSub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range) Const cnNUMCOLS AsLong=256 Const cnHIGHLIGHTCOLOR AsLong=36'default lt. yellow Static rOld As Range Static nColorIndices(1To cnNUMCOLS)AsLong Dim i AsLong IfNot rOld IsNothingThen'Restore color indices
[code].....
How can I retain the range's historical color so that when I deselect the row it reverts properly?
I have been trying to edit a code which previously saved a copy in a new workbook to a specific folder/path. (Additionally it copies and clears some figures, but this is working as it should.)
However I would like the copy to be saved at the same location as the original workbook, regardless of the path the original workbook is saved.
I.e if I need to move the workbook containing the code to a new folder/location, when using the macro, the new copy should be stored in the same folder/location as the original one.
For now it is only saving the copy into "My Documents"
Code: Sub Macro1() ' ' Macro1 Macro ' Macro recorded 16-02-2009 by ceng '
I have a macro which successully saves a worksheet as new file to another file path....(below)...but I can't figure out how to close this new file and return to the original file...
Dim myPath As String, fName As String myPath = Sheets("Date").Range("C8").Text fName = Sheets("Date").Range("C9").Text Sheets("Sage CSV File").Copy With ActiveWorkbook .SaveAs Filename:=myPath & fName End With'
I am after a macro to do the following, my visual basic skills are very limited (non existant):- Look at the date in cell A1 on Sheet 'Live Report' and err 'remember it' Copy a range of cells from A3 to A10 on 'Live Report' Go to sheet 'Monthly Summary' and find the date that had been remembered previously (this date will be in column A on 'Monthly Summary' which will probably be a mixture of values and formulas). After the date has been found paste special and transpose the 'values only' copied range from 'Live Report' (A3 to A10) in column B on 'Monthly Summary' next to the date that has been found in Column A.
I have a macro that imputs data from an external database and puts it into a temporary worksheet. This data has 3 columns (ID, Date, Amount). I am then making another sheet which has X number of tables (one for each ID), with the years being the column headings, and months being the row headings. ie.
| ID X | +------+------+------+---> | | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Jan | $100 | $250 | $300 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Feb | $200 | $300 | $200 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Mar | $300 | $250 | $100 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Sum | $600 | $800 | $600 | | +------+------+------+--->
| ID Y | +------+------+------+---> | | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Jan | $100 | $250 | $300 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Feb | $200 | $300 | $200 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Mar | $300 | $250 | $100 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Sum | $600 | $800 | $600 | | +------+------+------+--->
Currently I have a few hidden fields for the DSUM Criteria. I start making the tables. And then filling in table based off of the month and year. Doing so I need 3 criteria: >= First Day of the Month <= Last Day of the Month = ID #
The problem is it takes Excel too long to fill in the 3 criteria fields, calculate the result, copy the result, and place it into the correct place on the table. Is there another way to get this data into the correct tables faster? Instead of using DSUM?
I'm setting up a payroll for several employees in one workbook. I start from the particular employee's worksheet and then I need to go to another sheet where various information is stored and then come back to the original employee's sheet. The current macro works fine if the various information is stored on each employee's worksheet but I can't figure out how to go to another sheet and then come back to my active cell in employee sheet.
I have a tracking log, stored on a network drive, that tracks open purchase orders on about 13 different buyers. Each buyer has access to this data, and would be interested in looking at it in different ways. I have an idea for protecting my original data in this workbook, but allowing others to view and edit the data anyway they want. I thought I'd run it past the pros first, to see if they knew a better way, before I started trying to code it.
My idea was to put a macro in the workbook open event that opens an input box, "Enter password or select okay." If they enter the correct password, the macro exits, and they are in the workbook. Any changes made after entering the correct password will be made to the original data. If they enter anything OTHER than the correct password, the code would save the workbook AS another name, so now any changes made would be only made to a COPY of the original data.
This way, when I do my daily updates, I can open the file using the password, and save the file after editing. Anybody else would only get to edit a copy of my original. The other question is..., is it possible to put a macro in the workbook exit event that requires a password to overwrite the original? Otherwise, the user could edit the data in the "saved as" version, then just overwrite the original file, either accidentally or maliciously. I know they could still overwrite it by editing the macro, but I don't think they're that savvy.
I'm using the function Proper(A1) to clean up some columns that have some entries in all CAPS. It works fine. What I'd like to do now is get rid of the original column and just keep the altered one. Of course since the original is the source for the new one, when I delete it the new one goes nuts.
1, How do I calculate the original value of something if it has dropped say 9.3% Ex Stock value 5.56 down 7.4%. How do I calculate its original value.
2, I have copied some numerical data from a website, on one computer when I drop that data into an excel sheet it falls into separate cells allowing me to manipulate it, on another computer I drop it into an excel spreadsheet and all the data goes into one cell not allowing me to manipulate it.
I was wondering is there a setting on one excel spreadsheet that I am inadvertantly not using on the other.
I have a range b2:g37 filled with numbers. I use max function to get the max number in this range in cell C41. For example, the number is 20400. Now I want to know where the 20400 is originally located in the spreadsheet (ie. in column B, C, D, ...? in row 2, 3, 4, ...?).
I am writing a macro that copies a pdf from a temporary directory to a permanent directory. After the copy is complete, I want to delete the original file. Looking in Visual Basic Help, it appears that I need to create a FileSystemObject, but I have no idea what that means or how to do it. sDirectory is a string variable of the path of the file and sBatch is a string variable of the name of file. This isn't working.
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") sDeleteFile = (sDirectory & sBatch)
Set a = fs.CreateTextFile(sDeleteFile, True) a.DeleteFile.sDeleteFile
I recorded a macro in a workbook called masterschedule. The macro works only if I run it when I am using the masterschedule. Each week I open the masterschedule workbook and name it the current week, for example 3-26-07 schedule is the name of the most current schedule. I then open 7 other spreadsheets and paste information from the current schedule 3-26-07 (this week) onto 3 different sheets in all of the other spreadsheets. It works fine if I am using the masterschedule. Others have access to this workbook once it is named something else. I do not want to allow others to have access to the master workbook. Can someone help me with this? I've attached part of the macro below. I need it to work in whatever the masterschedule is renamed to.
i am setting up a competency matrix and record for number of employees and when i complete the recor the information is transferred to the matrix which is in the same workbook but just on a different sheet and depending on the status of the information the cell changes colour....this is done....background info.....an employee has planned training, then they need practise then they become competent....but the problem i have is that if that employee doesnt do that task for a year then they will need a refresher but i dont want to lose the original information...so i am trying to lookup in the table and determine wwhether the task has been entered more than once and if so use the latest information if not then just use that information
When i cut a row and paste it to another sheet, that row on the original sheet is shrinked. I don't know if my vba code has something to do with that so just in case will put it here:
I would like my hyperlink destination to move with the original cell (like links do) if I insert or delete a row above. The destination is on a separate sheet within the same work book.
My worksheet that will have duplicate data inserted into it. Once inserted I need to delete the new duplicate row and the row it duplicated. The attachment is a copy of what the data looks like with the first tab showing what it will look like with inserted data and the second tab is what I want it to look like at the end. I will not need the deleted data again so it does not need to be on a new sheet, that is just for an example. The name of the tabs will also be different so I want to be able to run it on any worksheet. This is the code I am using to find and delete the duplicate but I can't get it to delete the original. I used "First, MI, Last, and DOB" because those are the ones that won't be duplicated where others will. This is a list of about 15,000 entries. There should never be an incident where there is triplicate data but I can't say for sure.
I am having problems with conditional formatting,on sheet1 ,if column "n" is yes then it is coloured red,when I search database say f124 I would like all records for f124 to appear and keep column "n" red or even better the whole row red,it seems just to locate all records with "n" =no and all orange /brown colour
If I ask in a macro to open sheet containing a fax header, copy it, then how do I tell Vb to return to the original sheet to paste. There many sheets that require this from a button click on the sheet and instead of storing the graphic in all sheets I just want 1 copy so file closes faster. I would normally just name the original sheet, but this will change with every sheet.
Within Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick, I have the following simple code extract that sets the appropriate autofilter to the correct value (and highlights a couple of cells for clarity) when a particular cell is double-clicked...
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C10:AQ11")) Is Nothing Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C10:D11")) Is Nothing Then
You'll be happy to hear that the event works as expected.
However I would like to add the following enhancement: after Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick completes the "double-clicked cell" is selected, is it possible for the "original" cell to be re-selected once the event completes?
I need to know how to select the sheet the user was on at the time they ran the macro. The macro has to select (because I'm not yet smart enough to avoid all the selecting...) cells on other sheets, but I want to return to the sheet they started from at the end of the macro.
Unfortunately, they create these sheets themselves, and I have no idea what they will be named, or where they will be, or what their code numbers will be. They could delete them at any time and rearrange.
Sorry if this is a really dumb question. I suspect it is, but I can't find out how to fix it, and most people are smart enough to avoid the selects so I suspect it isn't an issue for them.
