Saving Comma Separated .txt Files As .csv Files
Sep 15, 2009I have a large number of .txt files that are comma separated files (but not saved with the .csv extension) that I need to convert to files with the .csv extension.
Is there an easy way to do this for all files in a given folder? Ideally, the files don't even need to be opened as they are are quite large in size (70MB+) and there are a lot of them (500+).
Saving From A Form To Named Cell
Mar 25, 2014Is it possible to save information entered on a form to a named cell in a worksheet as opposed to in a range of adjacent cells? I am trying to use a form to populate a worksheet where the values stored will not be near one another.
View 1 Replies View RelatedStop Users From Saving A Form
Jul 16, 2008I placed the code below in the ThisWorkbook section of a Service Request macro. The intention was to block users of saving the input they had just entered into the blank template. However, some continue to do it, despite the code. Obviously it is not as tight as I expected.
Does anyone know a better, tighter method, short of killing the offending user (which I am tempted to do, believe me!)?
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim LoginName As String
LoginName = Environ("username")
If LoginName "chuckdrago" Then
If SaveAsUI = True Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox "Saving this form is not allowed! Print a Copy"
Else
ThisWorkbook.Saved = True
Cancel = True
MsgBox "Saving this form is not allowed! Print a Copy"
End If
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)

VBA Saving PDF Files Into Folders
Sep 29, 2013I have this code that generates excel pages as pdf files, but I can't get it to save it in its individual folders. For example, I have the sheet name as Brian Lin, I want to save the pdf into the folder called Brian Lin, then if I have the sheet name as Lilly Tran, the pdf should save into the folder called Lilly Tran. Here's my code. The code is one step short of what I want it to do, it saves in the folder right before the name folders.
Code:
Sub Macro1()
Dim wsh As Worksheet, vWshs
Dim sFolderName As String, set_Path As String, name As String, hwas As String, sname As String, swsname As String
vWshs = Array("Rates", "Inputs")
set_Path = "C:UsersJonathanDesktopFaFundInvoices" & hwas & ""

Saving Batch Files From Excel
Nov 22, 2013I currently have 3 batch files that I would like to be able to update using VBA instead of manually adding the information to each one. My goal is to be able to use my excel file and when I add new lines I could then run the script to save and/or update each of the batch files. I would like to be able to add the new lines I added in excel to the end of the batch files. I use the batch files for automation purposes but I do not like the fact that I have to open each one and added the same lines three times. This is why I want to be able to update my excel file and then add those new lines to the batch file. An example of how to accomplish this task using VBA would be awesome.
View 2 Replies View RelatedCopying Tabs And Saving Them As Files
Jun 13, 2007I've already done a search and found this on ozgrid.com:
RunCodeOnAllXLSFiles
I'm sure it is what I need, but as a non-programmer, I'm having trouble using it.
I have 12 files, each with 14 tabs. Example:
File: Sector.xls
Tab 1: Region 1
Tab 2: Region 2
Tab 3: Region 3
The client now wants 14 files, each with 12 tabs:
File: Region 1.xls
Tab 1: Sector 1
Tab 2: Sector 2
Tab 3: Sector 3
My first attempt was to try a macro:
1) left click on tab
2) move or copy...
3) move selected sheets to book (File: Region 1.xls)
4) then go on to next tab...............
Now, this does loop through the requested files, I can see them open, then close. I'm guessing they are copying, but I take it that I need to have it paste, then go to the next? (The c:files is just generic, as the files are on our LAN, and I'm just paranoid. The "Erie St. Clair" are the actual names of the file, and the tabs).
Keep Sheet Names Unchanged After Saving Them As TXT Files
Mar 24, 2014I want two sheets of my Excel workbook to be saved as txt file. The name of the file is compiled of a fixed part ("TrialList" or "BlockList") and two values from another sheet (subject and session number):
[Code] ........
Now, saving the text files with the desired file names works perfectly. However, Excel decides to change the names of the sheets that have been saved as text files accordingly. This is something I want to prevent from happening, since a second loop of actions will end because of the unexpected sheet names...

Saving Macros As Global Addins Or Personal.xls Files
Jan 12, 2010So i have a macro that i wrote that willclean up these datafeeds that i get. i want to be able to use them for each spreadsheet. So the first bit i tried was saving a personal.xls file in the xlstart folder in XP (MSE 2003) . That would automatically pull up but when i tried to run the macro on other worksheets i get the generic 400 error.
the next thing i tried was copying the macro to a module and adding function tags and taking out the sub tags. i then "saved" that in the addins folder then tried assiging my custom button to is through the macros prompt. When i gave the title box the absolute path to the addins folder with clean.xla cited it said it was invalid, so i tried saving it just as clean.xla expecting it to locate the file there anyway.
this far each time i try to run the macro globally it says it cant find the current sheetname!macroname So i must be missing a step somewhere... can anyone give advice, i have searched the forum and couldnt find a similar problem for solutions.
User To Select Variable Folder For Saving Files

Excel 2003 :: Saving Files Generated By External Application
Jul 23, 2013I have the following code which edits an excel file and saves it in a different format, I think want the code to take this newly saved file and open it in an external application (Softplot) and then save it through this new application.
VB:
Sub FormatMacro1a(ws As Worksheet)
ws.Copy
Rows(1).Delete
Columns("D:E").Cut Destination:=Columns("J:K")
Columns("F:K").Cut Destination:=Columns("D:I")
Range("E1:E201").Value = "0"
[Code] .....
As it stands I have the file saving in a new format and I can open a specific file in softplot through VBA however where I am getting stuck is opening my newly saved file and then saving it.
I have tried the following :
VB:
Path = "C:Program FilesSoftPlot-8softplot.exe"
File = "ActiveWorkbook"

Saving Sheets As Text Files Results In Blank Lines
May 11, 2008I 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, _
FileFormat:=xlText, CreateBackup:=False
ActiveWorkbook.Close
'ThisWorkbook.Activate
Sheets(wsKwartaal).Activate
Prevent The User From Saving The Data Input From The User Form If Any Of Those Three Fields Is Left Blank
Feb 9, 2010I have a user form that has a combo box "City" two text boxes one called "Flight" and the other "Date". What I'm trying to do is to prevent the user from saving the data input from the user form if any of those three fields is left blank. The code that I have so far checks all of the required fields, if any are left blank a message notifys which field(s) is left blank and return the focus back to that field. But the rest of code also fires.
What I really need is either to stop the code if any fields are blank and return the focus back to the blank field, the user completes the field(s) and clicks the save again, or better yet, pause the code until all the required fields are completed and then complete the save. (There is actually another 200+ lines of code in this sub, but I deleted it to keep the post a little shorter.)

Dec 15, 2009I call the macro below from a Workbook_BeforeClose sub; however, if the user has not saved changes before they hit the close then the Sub SaveFile runs and then after the backup save they are then asked do you want to save changes.
I initially had this sub run with Workbook_BeforeSave, but I don't really want to run this everytime the user selects save.
Any ideas on how to how the save changes first and then the backup?
