Searchable Database On My Website?
Sep 14, 2006
I am a DJ and I want to allow my prospective customers to view my music library, while preventing my competition from printing a copy, or posting my library as their own. I think I can accomplish this by having a Java (or similar) interface on a page of my site that allows the user to search songs by title or artist. However, I am lost as to how to make that happen.
A competitor has something pretty close to what I want, but cannot get enough info about how to do it myself when viewing his source code (http://www.houstonkaraoke.com/search-pro/prodb.htm). I would like something a little more asthetically pleasing. My DB is in Excel 2000 and I am running XP.

I would like to be able to create a reactive, searchable database. I have data that will be broken down into two divisions: Origin and Destination States. I would like to type in an Origin State, then a Destination State, and then have the document provide results for matching data. For example, if company 1 is in the origin state, but not destination state, its data will not be shown in the search result. However, if company 2 is listed in both the Origin State and Destination State, its data will be listed.
Addition - Attached is a small example of the worksheet that I would like to create. In the "SEARCH" tab, I would like to enter the Origin and Destination States. the search would yield all appropriate matches. In this example, if I entered Alabama as the Orign State, and Arizona as the destination, the search would provide the following match:
GreenLine
H&M Bay
Refrigerated Express

when it comes to using an excel sheet (which is already built and rather large) for functions which are more suited to database functions.
The excel contains audiotaped medical info in columns:
question
physician name
diagnosis/subject
timecode
label1 (checked box "on")
label2 (checked box "off")
comments
each of these are sectioned by audiotape with headers --
looking something like this --
TAPE 1
diagnosis/subject1
then under that, columns
question | physician name | timecode | label1 | label2
then
diagnosis/subject2
then under that columns
subject/question | physician name | timecode | label1 | label2
then
TAPE 2
with similar info
so each TAPE has numerous DIAGNOSES covered under which there are various questions asked and answered by individual doctors.
(see link to dummy file for visual)
[url]
I need to be able to search on a group of criteria simultaneously:
# physician’s name
# subject
# on-label
# off-label
and return the soundbite in a user-friendly way so that the entry-level desk people (with little or no excel expertise) can retrieve it.
YES, it was not set up to do this, but this is what i've got. so i'm hoping that before i go down too many dead-ends, someone can tell me which is the best way to do this.
Looks like VLOOKUP can only really search on one column and filters would require too much expertise for entry-level employees, but should i look into VBA or Macros. or do i need to import this into Access -- or learn SQL to interface with it on a user-friendly website?

I built a searchable drop down list in excel which will create quick receipts from a huge list of products.
I entered my products in one column and their respective content and price in the columns next to it.
My goal is to create a searchable drop down list which will include all of my products so that when I search and select the product my customer ordered it will ultimately pull the content and price with it to form a receipt with multiple products.
The problem I ran into is that my searchable drop down list cannot be copied to the multiple rows below.
Cell B8 is active.
EFS receipt drop down.xlsx

I need the searchable list box to return data one column to the right of the "searched" column data.
This works mostly with Data Validation.
Named range "validationlist" with "=OFFSET(Choice!$AC$4,,,COUNTIF(Choice!$AC$4:$AC$14,"?*"))"
D9 has a drop down control. Enter the cell and type "br" and click the drop down arrow. Mouse to choose an item from the list box. If you chose "brown" , it will be entered in the cell. The returned item should be "banana" from the other column. How to do this?
Once working the control needs to be used across the row in more cells: E9, F9... all the way out to W9. And there has will be a Lookup to pull data from elsewhere above D9.
This worksheet ultimately needs to be uploaded to Skydrive and used as a collaborative worksheet as a 'web app'.
See attachment and formula output below.

I am currently trying to create a database of products for my company. For each product I would like to include an image associated with it. I then want to have on another sheet a place where the user will click an error and be able to cycle through the products. As tehy cycle the associated image will pop up.
What I need to understand is after importing the image into excel, how do I associate that image to a cell so I can reference it in another sheet of the database. I am not concerned with how large the database will get, my pictures are quite small.

I've used a countifs, but I'm having trouble doing a sum in a similar way. I have 2 databases and I will try to explain below. I need the to sum the values of database 1 if the second database is >= 20. So the value I would expect on this example would be 900. I would also like to be able to highlight which ones are elliminated. Such as coloring the text red.
Database 1
Eric 100
Jenny 200
Gina 300
Doug 400
Database 2
Eric 18
Jenny 20
Gina 34

I have a spread I use daily where I need to go to a series of links on a site and extract data- all that is programmed. But it's a site that requires I first be logged into my account.
Code:
Sub AcctLogin()
Dim a As String
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
With ie
.Visible = True
[Code] ....
The above code works, but it opens up an IE window. I'd just like it to log in in the background so I don't have to deal with a new window..

I am desperately trying to get full postcode lists from two websites: [URL] .... and [URL] ........
The latter of the two is harder to get (I'm told) so it could also be available at: [URL] .... by selecting only the "Collect+" stores.

I am trying to extract data from a website:
[URL] .....
I looked at the source code of the website and realized that if you notice (above) that the variables listed in the link (i.e year, month, day) are exactly what i need to change in order to get the data for a specific date. how can I accomplish this using VBA. so say I have in on an excel sheet year in column A, month in column B, and days in column C (time interval is constant so we don't have to worry about stime and etime). and i run the macro and it loops through each row taking year,month,day for all rows and saving the data as .csv or xls files?

I'm trying to automate some webscraping on a website that requires a login, and was wondering how I would do so using Macros with a specific username password somewhere in the spreadsheet, lets say B2, and C2 respectively. The website I'm trying to login is this; http://underground.chacha.com/account/. I think I have most of the scraping figured out; its just the log-in for now.

retrieving data from financial website databases like yahoofinance.com and bloomberg.com. I'm trying to make an automatic stock analysis model to read from the website database and retrieve the data into excel sheets. For example, when opening the excel model the user gets a popup to enter the stock ticker, the user enters the ticker and gets a set of data. Is this do-able in excel?

I have an excel sheet that has a lot of APN (parcel numbers) on it. I would like to run that through the assessors page [URL] to get the address and owners name. It seems like a very simple thing to do, but... How would I make it run each parcel through the assessors page to get the name and address information. Is there a tool I can install into Excel to make this easier?

I'm attempting to familiarize myself with pulling data from an online database into spreadsheets for manipulation. I'm relatively familiar now with pulling tables using webquery, etc. but my next feat is accessing data from sites which require some "input" before retrieving the desired data set.
Currently, I have a site which contains information and prompts for the "year" of information in a dropdown box. I've attempted to do this as indicated below, and was able to "select" a year, however the page doesn't load the data like it would if I were to manually click on it.
Sub GetEmissionsData()
Dim ieApp As InternetExplorerDim ieDoc As ObjectSet ieApp = New InternetExplorer
ieApp.Visible = True
[Code] ........
Separately I've tried setting the year using another method, but this just give an error
Sub GetEmissionsData()
Dim ieApp As InternetExplorerDim ieDoc As ObjectSet ieApp = New InternetExplorer
ieApp.Visible = True
[Code] .......
I'm not sure if the error is due to some issue with my code - or if "Label1" isn't the correct label for the dropdown / combobox on the site. I didn't post the site source on this page - but the URL indicate in this post is the one I'm interested in.

I ran into a problem with the following code
Dim URL As String
URL = Worksheets("References & Resources").Range("URLMSL")
Dim IE As Object
Set IE = CreateObject("internetexplorer.application")
IE.Navigate URL
IE.Visible = True
My problem is that on most of the workstations here, it will open internet explorer, then open the file in Excel. I just want it to Save the file.

I am trying to open/save a csv file from a website but the URL only takes me to the page the file is hosted on then the file has to be clicked and it asks you to save it. It doesn't appear that it is a shortened URL and using Firebug I have gone through the HTML trying to find a link to the file but haven't. These files are date specific and ultimately the macro will be used to scrape different dates.
The URL: [URL] From that you will select the year>month>day number>download file
