When saving excel workbooks in our shared drive, a second copy of the workbook (with an unusual name) is being saved in addition to the original copy. Why would this happen?
View 7 RepliesAn excel workbook we have on a shared drive is returning an error message: "The document is corrupt and cannot be opened. To try and repair it, use the Open and Repair command in the open dialog (File Menu) and select extract data when prompted. I am having trouble following those suggestions, Open an Repair doesnt' seem to be an option on the file menu. I have Excel 2003, is there any way to recover our workbook?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI currently have a password secured excel file on my departs Q drive, which everyone can access unfortunately only 1 person can edit at a time. I tried to turn it into a workbook so we could all edit it at the same time but now some of the other users can't access the file at our other buildings throughout the county. This is for excel 2010. And I did select the share workbook, and allow multiple users to edit box. everything else is unchanged.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow do I get a shared workbook to automatically save upon every change by each user. The only way I can get this to work (at this point) is to run a macro that updates every 45 seconds IN EACH WORKBOOK! It's counterintuitive because the workbook is shared (on a network), but each user must start the "time" macro in their "individual" SHARED workbook to allow the automatic saving.
What am I missing? There has to be a more efficient way to do this, right?
Code below
HTML Sub Time()
Call Save
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:45"), "Time"
End Sub
HTML Sub Save()
ActiveWorkbook.Save
End Sub
I've made a macro that would create some folders on a shared drive.
there is an issue if the path i want to create is too long.
I get this error.

is there anything we can do to pass this or any solution for it?
We have a form that is completed by our employees and emailed to a central group email address that up to 8 employees within our team can access. When one of our 8 team members open the file sent they need to add comments to it and then save it in a central directory on one of our network drives.
Now the problem I have is that we all have the network drive mapped to a different letter.
Is there a way that I can have a macro (see below for current macro that does not work) save to a network path and not a drive letter.
Any way to bypass the unprotect sheet in a shared work book, this is what i came up with so far

View 8 Replies View RelatedMy set up win xp pro office 2007. Object is to save the text from a given cell to drive C naming the file with the value in another cell. E.g.
Contents of cell ("AA5") is a string and the content of ("D5") is a number
I have tried altering the code posted which i found on the forum, it works fine for the purpose as it was indented e.g. save the workbook and in my case saves it as the value in cell D5.
I guess I need to use some form of object to pass to the save as method but my knowledge of this is somewhat limited in addition as the is a possibility of either the cell being empty and the file name existing on the C drive, I need to disable the windows warnings and just go ahead and save it over writing what is on the C drive is of no importance as it will be the same data anyway, I can wrap the save in a "if Len ( AA5)= 0" to stop it trying to save if the cell if empty it the save the text string i am having problems with:
Option Explicit
Sub SaveAsExample()
Dim FName As String
Dim FPath As String
FPath = "C:"
FName = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Text
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=FPath & "" & FName

I am currently creating a simple macro to save out files to a specific folder on one of our network drives. Since we will be doing this often I would like to amend the date the the file name saved for sorting/organizational purposes.
Unfortunately I have been running into a few issues, this is what I have tried so far but keep getting a SaveAs error:
Code:
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="vosinsharedClient Implementation TeamDC Tools" &
"Copy DC Conversion WB_2014 " & Format(Date, "yyyymmdd") & ".xlsx", FileFormat:=xlNormal
I have also tried:
Code:
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="vosinsharedClient Implementation Team
DC ToolsCopy DC Conversion WB.2014_" & _
Format(Now(), "YYYYMMDDhhmmss") & ".xlsx", FileFormat:=56
But still no avail. I believe it may have something to do with the file format but I am not sure. I am running Excel 2010.
I have a large data set (from columns A - I, with over 10,000 rows) of information located on Sheet1 that I need to be able to go through to find the criteria (which is text and is located in column B) I'm looking for. I know how to write the VBA code to use Excel's AutoFilter option .... what I don't know is how can I can identify and copy the results the AutoFilter pulls up, from Sheet1 into another sheet because the data is on a number of different rows.
For example, I have to search column B three separate times for the following criteria:
1. xyz
2. acb
3. hij
this is what I have for the autofilter:
Range("A1:I1").AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="=xyz"
Today, I may find the "xyz" information on rows 6-150, 755-787, 1021, and 8524-8999, whereas tomorrow "xyz" may be on rows 51-101, 8547, and 9989-9991.
I've got a bizarre problem here. I've been working on a piece of code and one line has started behaving erratically: Sheets("BLANK SCORE").Copy after:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
I want to do is create a copy of the sheet called "BLANK SCORE" and copy it after the last sheet in the workbook. This code is part of a loop that runs a maximum of 10 times (potentially creating 10 copies) and I've had inconsistant results such as:
*) Code works and copied sheet is created (desired result)
*) Code is ignored and no copied sheet is created (shouldn't do that)
*) Sheet is copied to a new blank Workbook (...huh ?)
I've also tried changing:.........
Is there to copy my vlookup results into another workbook?

I wrote a code in unshared workbook and it works fine. But when i make it shared i get Run-time error '1004' Delete method of worksheet class failed.
The Deleting of worksheet only occurs once (when the new wb is created) so is there i can unshare and share it back when the process is complete?
I have an Add-In installed on multiple computers. When I update it I update them all at the same time so that everyone is on the same page. The Add-In is always in the same location for all computers.
C:- Global FilesVF MacroVF Macro Add-In.xlam
I use the Add-In to format a sheet and one of the formats is to display the "last author" & "Last Save Time" This is the code used:
Code:
Function DocProps(prop As String)
Application.Volatile
On Error GoTo err_value
[Code]....
The same situation occurs with cell Z8 as well. It appears it is looking in the wrong location. If I change the E to a C in the formula bar it fixes the issue but I cannot rely on my users to do this every time. We keep the WB's in question on an external drive and pass it around as needed. So they will run into this problem on a regular basis.
I also get a "Security Warning - Automatic update of Links has been disabled" message only when run from the USB drive.
Excel 2002 SP3
When a file is currently open, and the user selects "Save as", it takes them to the files native directory. (Where it was last saved).
If the user has that same file open, opens another file from a different directory, goes back to the first file and selects "Save as", it takes them to the location where the last file was opened from.
Assume a workbook with some nice pictures.
How do I save all of those to D:TEMP on my Hard Disk ?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook that i am trying to make a shared workbook.
Shared workbooks have all kinds of functionality limitations. The one specifically giving me problems is the ability to protect workbooks.
Once a workbook is shared it's protection cannot be changed.
I protect a workbook prior to sharing and set the UserInterfaceOnly property = true (this allows my code to do whatever it wants but still maintains protection in the user interface).
Once i share and excel makes me save, everything works super and all the code in my auto_open macro works perfectly. But as soon as i close and open the file it seems that the UserInterfaceOnly property i set to true turns off and my code stops working.
Because it's a shared workbook i cannot turn it back on in the auto_open because that functionality is disabled.
We have a worksheet, which contains charts and data which requires updating by different department.
However, when I have this work- book as a Shared workbook (Tools - share workbook), The charting and macro has all been deactivated.
Would anyone have any idea on how do I share a workbook - while being able to also update the Excel Charts within it ?
(Different user will be updating different charts, and there will be no conflict in between them)

I load an text file into an excel sheet and after some eventually changes I save (overwrite) it back into the text file again. Now the text file has become a file with 50 pages (49 empty pages). How can I avoid this or how can I set an EOF when no more written lines follows. The code for saving the excel sheet is this:
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheets(wsImport).Select
Sheets(wsImport).copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FileName:=WorkFolder & WorkFile, _

2. Is there a setting so that whoever opens the workbook will see the same view (instead of whatever view the last person saved the file in)?
Is there a way to setup personal views of a shared workbook ? For eg : I might hide columns f to j and the other person might have to hide columns h to m. Also, one person might be using ver 2003 and other person using 2010.
View 2 Replies View RelatedOur main spreadsheet in the office is a shared filed which is accessed by 3 pc's.
We have been using this set-up for nearly 3 years and no problems until this last week. Now, over the past week, this message pops up when we try to save the file on the PC's not hosting the file.
"Excel was unable to save the workbook because there was a problem reading or applying part of the revision history. You can unshare the work book or save to a non shared workbook format to fix the problem"
I have shared/unshared/reshared and shared again but a week later, I still keep getting this message popping up. Any ideas?
One thing I have noticed is that we have set it in the advanced tab of the share workbook options not to keep revision history, but sometimes it also shows 'keep history for 30 days'.
