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.
Sub test()
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.LookIn = "C:Documents and SettingscDesktop1"
.SearchSubFolders = True
.Filename = "*.htm"
.TextOrProperty = "Status Rekod"
.MatchAllWordForms = True
.FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles
If .Execute() > 0 Then
For I = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
'I want to use the FileCopy function here to copy the found files to
'C:Documents and SettingscDesktop est. How do I do this?
Next I
Else
MsgBox "There were no files found."
End If
End With
End Sub
I need a Excel VB Macro which copies specific ranges from all available Excel workbooks in a Folder and pastes the values in a target Excel workbook in different columns. In other words it would copy Cells F4-F15 from all excel files (say 20) in a folder and paste them in the target Excel file in 20 columns.
I have a macro that searches in all the excel files contained in a folder (weather files are opened or not) and returns the information (File name, Sheet name , Cell Address, and contents of the cell). I just want to amend the said code so that it copies not just the cell alone but" the entire row in which the cell is present".
I found some code on here the other day which will do though all the files in a folder and send them to a zip file which works great how to zip a single fixed file. I down load files from our oracle system daily and need to keep them but want to keep the file size down.
Code:
Sub ZipPackage() Dim ZipFile, TargetFolder, NewFileName, ofile Dim o As Object
[Code]...
But the "ofile" doesnt contain the file type. Is there away to adjust this code so it recognises what the file type is?
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
Is there a code that will search a pre-determined folder for all .xls files containing the word "Temp", and deleting those files?
Example: In the root of drive M, I have several Excel files. Anytime one of the original tracking logs is opened, a temp file of that log is automatically created. I would like to automatically search the drive and delete all files containin the word "Temp".
I've attached a picture of the directory tree, in case that will help. The file will always be named "PO Response Tracking - Temp#######.xls", with ###### representing a series of either 5 or 6 numbers.
vba to copy files (pdf / cad) from various source to destination folders. Column A will list the source of the PDF files, Column B with the file name, Column C with the destination folder. Column D with value Y or N with Y denoting Yes to Copy and No for No. I have like 30000 rows of data.
I have a folder with many subfolders and I want to search ".xls" files from these subfolders and then cut and paste them to new location. There is a code available over interned for searching files in folder but apparently it does not work in newer versions of Excel.
I have a folder "D:Documents and SettingsRakesh", which has many .xls files. Each file has a sheet called 'Cover Note'. I want to copy cells B2, C2, D4 and F3 from 'Cover Note' of each file.
These cells should be pasted in the current sheet - row 2 onwards. First cell of each row should have the source file name.
I have found out how to creat a new folder, and now what to copy specific files over to this file from a different Directory. Does anyone know how to do this?

How to place todays Date at the end of this New Folder?
I’m wondering if this is possible, if I have a folder with say 30 excel spreadsheets (.xls) all named differently (number of files will always change), can I easily write something in VBA to Open all the spreadsheets and copy each sheet over to an existing Excel spreadsheet? For example, have a ‘template’ spreadsheet where the VBA would exist, then have the first sheet, (Sheet1) of each 30 sheets be copied back over to the template.xls? Even better, could I rename each Sheet1 to the name of the file before copying it over? This would basically be the first step in my process of getting the spreadsheet made.
I found this code in a similar question, so how can I rename the Sheet to the opened file name, then copy that over to template.xls?
I am trying to copy the following files to a single folder; I have 200 excel files each in individual folders and each of these excel files is named like this; order_a1.xls, order_a2.xls up to 200. Each order_-.xls is in an individual folder. This is because each member of staff has a folder called orders with their own copy of order_a..xls IN IT. oNLY ONE FILE PER FOLDER. These folders are on a server called F.
I have a folder "D:Documents and SettingsRakesh", which has many .xls files. Each file has a sheet called 'Cover Note'. I want to copy cells B2, C2, D4 and F3 from 'Cover Note' of each file.
These cells should be pasted in the current sheet, one row for each file. First cell of each row should have the source file name.
It would be better if macro can prompt to select the directory where ther source files resides.
Essentially, the Engineering Dept has given me 550 AutoCad files I have dumped into a folder located in this path: C:/DrawingsDump
From these 550 DWG files I need to manually filter and separate 260 drawings that I actually need to use and move them to a folder located in this path: C:/DrawingsFiltered . This manual filtering process takes a lot of time and is tedious work and it has got to be done everytime Engineering changes drawings because they are not kind enough to provide me a delta list.
In Excel 2003 I have setup a list of all 260 drawings I am interested in and that I call my filtered list. Is it possible to create a script that will enable Excel 2003 to compare my filtered list to all of the files inside C:/DrawingsDump, and then copy only those files that match to my Excel Filtered list and then paste only matching files into the C:/DrawingsFiltered folder?
If Excel 2003 can't handle this, is there a third party application that will let me perform a file management function like this with minimum startup time?
For the last year I have been downloading cash register X1 and Z1 files onto an SD card. Each night's files (X1 & Z1) are stored in a new folder with the naming convention "RP + [DATE]", (EX: RP120910, [YYMMDD]). I have 265 folders! I need to go through each folder, select the Z1 file (I don't care about the X1, X2 or Z2 files) and rename each with the following naming convention: "Z1 + folder_name + .xls". For Example: Folder RP120910 contains the Z1 file named "Z1_T1729.ECR". After renaming, the file should be "Z1RP120910.xls". As the VBA code loops through each subfolder, selecting and renaming the Z1 files, I would like the new files to be placed into a new folder named "Z1Files". Note: All subfolders are currently in a directory named "RegisterFiles". I am using Excel 2010.
I did a search for " import text" and found some promising leads, but not exactly what I was looking for. I have tried running macros and looking at the code but don't know how to pass the file names from the the D47:D147 range to VBA(see below). I saw elsewhere that Excel can be told to create a temporary batch file, and that the batch file with the command "copy text1.txt+text2.txt+text3.txt all.txt" for example could be used to merge the 3 text files into a file called all.txt. I don't however know how specify the path where copy starts, to tell the batch file to look in subdirectories or to pass the file into Excel. I've posted this question yesterday to Yahoo Answers http://tinyurl.com/omers and http://tinyurl.com/rfww9 without much luck.
Below is the macro I would like:I have text files whose names are found in the range D47:D147 although without the appended ".txt" extension. The sheets can only contain one name sometimes, but on average 8 to 10, so in the average case only cells D47:D56 would have entries.The text files are found in the say H:Textfiles directory or subdirectories.I would like Excel to find these files, concatenate them with a row between each file, and paste the results into cell K251.Finally, the text import wizard should be used with a space as a delimiter and the last 3 columns (it's sometimes only 2) of the concatenated file, not imported.
I would like to copy all data from all workbooks stored in one particular folder and paste them into a masterlist. The masterlist and all other workbooks in that folder have the same table header. How do I write VBA codes do the following tasks?
Options (1 and 2 are mutually exclusive): 1. VBA will go to that folder, open all workbooks one by one, if the data is filtered, then deactivate filtermode, and copy all the data but not the header, and paste it into masterlist and loop to the next workbook.
2. Create an inputbox in masterlist that allows user to key in Week Number. Then VBA will take the value, go to the folder and open all the workbooks one by one, apply filtering using the InputBox value, and copy the related data excluding the header into masterlist and loop to the next workbook. (*If the workbook in the folder is filtered, deactivate filter and then only filter using the InputBox value).
I need a macro in a workbook to look at all the files in the same folder that have "*att*.xls" in the name and determine and copy from the range A15:W515 only the rows that have data in at least columns A, C and D. Each file will vary as to how many rows there will be and there are more than the files with "*att*.xls" in the folder. The data will be on the only worksheet in each file and the worksheet is named "G2WAttendee_xls" the data from all the files need to be copied to the file called "Consolidated webinar reports.xls" (I am using Excel 2003) and to a sheet called "Attendance Data" and added to the end of the last paste.
At the start of the macro the current file "Consolidated webinar report.xls" should be saved to a sub folder of the current directory and have the date saved added to the name. The sub folder is called "Completed reports". The data in the original file on worksheet "Attendance Data" should be deleted.
At the end of the process all the files that have had data copied from them should be moved to the sub folder "Attendance reports consolidated" (This could be done as each file is closed if that is easier).
I have headings in row 1 of the "Attendance Data" worksheet that match the headings in the various files in the folder (which will always be in row 14 of the individual "*att*.xls" files).
The folder with all the files and the "Consolidated webinar report.xls" file is at path "Z:P and S MEvaluationsWebinar series 2012-13TB".
I have a workbook in which i do not want the end user to be able to drag and drop cells. I noticed that when I set this in the Excel options to disallow this, it is local to the machine. Is there a way I can prevent others from dragging and dropping cells, through vba or other means, without changing the users local machine settings? I also need to prevent CUT and pasting of cells. I also need to leave the cells un-protected, becuase COPY and paste is ok, as it doesnt affect the formulas that refer to the cell. The worksheet and workbook are both protected.
the macro needs to look in sheet2 column B, the data that it needs to look for is in sheet1 column a, once it finds the data in sheet2 column B, the original search criteria needs to be paste starting in sheet3 A1 while all the found data needs to be paste in column B.
It will then proceed to look for the next data in sheet1 column once it's done searching on the first item. I can't even think how to start with this one, it's too complicated for me. I attached a sample data. The search data is in sheet2 and the lookup data is in sheet1.
I'm trying to make a macro that will search a folder and move all files from 2008 into another folder. So far it can do this, but what i need is for it to search subfolders also. At this point it moves all files from the main folder, but nothing from the subfolders.

I have to extract all the entries that have certain words.
The worksheet has 600 rows, setup like
Column A=unique document number (never repeats) Column B=Document Titles (some repeats, though the documents that are the same are not titled the same, though they have certain keywords in like documents) Column C=Document Types
I want to search Column B for all titles containing the word/text string WOR, and then copy the row of A, B, and C when WOR appears in Column B, and put it into another worksheet.
Now obviously, I can do a "Find All" for WOR on Column B, but I can't cut and paste the results into another worksheet.
I prefer a simple formula, cause my VB and Macro skills are pretty non exsistant, though I will learn if that is what it takes.
I can just use the macro recorder on. The screen shot below is an example of one of many sheets I have in a workbook. Each line would represent a customer order. I like to be able to search all but the first and last sheet for orders due on a user entered date. Then when it does find a match to the due date copy the order details( range b3:n3 in example below) over to a new sheet and continue searching and copy over other matches below the previous to creaye a list of orders due that day...
