On this forum I read about the application "FileSearch" that doesn't work in office 2007. I used the macro on below in office 2003 and it worked. Now I upgraded to Office 2007 and it doesn't work. But if you search "NewSearch method" in the MS Excel Help you can find that the application exists and it has the same morphology I am using!! Why Doesn't it work??
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
'Change path to suit
.LookIn = pPath
.FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
.Filename = "*.xls"
If .Execute > 0 Then 'Workbooks in folder
Redim FNameArr(.FoundFiles.Count).......................
I don't seem to be able to combine the looping through a set of workbooks with the IsFileOpen function posted by microsoft.
Basically this code works if the foundfile(j) is closed, but if it is already open I cannot activate the foundfile(j) and make it do things.
I'm not posting the ISFileOpen function because already present inside the forum and the rest of the code because it's too long...
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
' . ScreenUpdating = False
.LookIn = MyPath(40)
'* represents wildcard characters
.FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
If .Execute > 0 Then 'Workbook exists
For j = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
If IsFileOpen((.FoundFiles(j))) Then
'neither of these three options work
I want to search for some text in a file. If found, I want to copy that file into another folder. I'm using the code below to do half the job.

.SearchSubFolders = True
.Filename = "*.htm"
.TextOrProperty = "Status Rekod"
.MatchAllWordForms = True
.FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles

For I = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
'I want to use the FileCopy function here to copy the found files to

I am using Excel 2007 so I CANNOT use application.filesearch.
With that said, I need to change one of my old macros that searched for the newest file within a specified folder, and then display the name of that file in a message box that gives the person an option of opening the file. I've read too many workarounds for application.filesearch and I'm not sure how to combine them all into something I can use.
Normally I have a bit of code to start with, but this one has me so baffled I don't know where to start.

Protect a sheet but allow tabbing from certain cells to others.
Enable the users to use the workbook without having to rely on their macro settings being Low.

I am after tips on creating a macro in Excel 2010 where it will search a list of folder paths in a column on a spreadsheet and insert a jpeg within the sheet from that folder if it exists. If more than one jpeg exists i would like it to insert the first jpeg only. i have found tips where it will insert images if you know the filename, however I don't have this luxury as file naming routines vary from folder to folder the only constant is that the file is a .jpg format.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having a little trouble making this code work correctly. This macro, Once finished, is connected to a (Save) command button. Here is what is suppose to happen, First thing to remember is another sheet (Sheet1) has been populated with various information which is used as a receipt. The information came from sheet2. I need to copy sheet1 just as it is, format included, create a new empty sheet, paste the information into the new sheet, name the new sheet with the values from cells in sheet2, E3, D3, and the date formatted as the month and year only. Then I need to create a folder in the my documents folder named from the values from sheet2, E3, D3, and todays date with the current time. If the folder already exists, then I just need it to change to that folder, and save the newly created worksheet (as named above) into that folder. After the save is executed, I need to delete that new sheet from the current workbook. Then I need to return to sheet2 to the last active cell and run the last few lines of code which collects the value of the cell 1 to the right of the active cell and transfers it to the cell 1 to the left of the active cell.
VB:
Public Sub Button11_Click()
Dim wShell, fso, strFldr, xdir As String
Dim newbal As String
