Searching And Copying From Other Workbooks
Jul 23, 2013
I have a spreadsheet that has a bunch of codes, I want to search all at once in another spreadsheet. If there there I want to copy the data related to that line into my spreadsheet.
Example:
I want to search a long list of items (in column D) in my “work in progress spreadsheet” The program would look into the “Data base spreadsheet” find the “item to search” in the database spreadsheet and copy the “product code” relative to those items, and populate column C with the product codes.
My work in progress spreadsheet
Col C ________________Col D
product codes ________Items to search
....................................G28
....................................G26
....................................F46
....................................J34
Database spreadsheet
Col C __________________Col E
Product codes __________items to search
Product code 16345210 ........J34
Product code 14454685 ........G26
Product code 14587541 ........G28
Product code 15754546 ........F46

i am trying to set up an interface through Excel for a database of record also held on excel. I have very very basic VB skills and have no idea what im doing lol but what i would like to do is have a search box and button, something similar as you would find on most websites. I would also like (if possible) for it to search up to 8 workbooks to look for a name or vaule.

I have been asked to fix a macro that is supposed to search column B and find any cells ending with .mov. Any row fitting the criteria is to be copied to Sheet2. The file is a internet traffic log and we are trying to determine the number of downloads we have on our video files, which are all .mov format. Sheet1 can exceed 3000 rows.
Here's what I have so far:

I have a sheet named "original" with columns a, b, c. My code checks each cell in column C for a value and then copys columns A,B,C to a sheet named "Order". It works fine except I need it to start pasting the results in row 16 instead of row
Sub PLACEORDER()
Dim lastrow_first As Long
Dim lastrow_second As Long
Dim x As Long
lastrow_first = Sheets("ORIGINAL").Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
For x = 10 To lastrow_first
If Sheets("ORIGINAL").Cells(x, 3) <> "" Or Not IsEmpty(Sheets("ORIGINAL").Cells(x, 3)) Then................

I have 400 workbooks to examine if cell P54 is 88% or lower. Is there an easy way, or is VBA with a loop the way.

I need to search column C for the text "X". If an "X" is found, I need to copy the text from the cell directly left of it and paste it into a seperate worksheet into cell B2, then go back to the original worksheet and delete the cell with "X" on it and the cell to the left.

So I have the code that allows me to search for the a certain value in a cell and then copies a certain cell to the other spread sheets. Here is the code that does that
Code:
Sub SearchMacro()
Dim LR As Long, i As Long
With Sheets("Sheet1")
[Code].....
The code will just need to search for the string "HSFL" and I won't have to hard code all the different variations of HSFL as I mentioned above.

I am creating a macro to copy data from one workbook that is emailed to me to another workbook that contains the actual macro, I will be using the second workbook to import the data into an application.
What I need is to be able to copy text in cells say D1, D3, D6 etc located in workbook1 to cells say A1, A2, A3 etc in workbook2 without having the macro go back and forth each time to copy the cells one at a time.
Also is there a macro that will recognize an already open workbook that I can use to copy the data

Look in folder and find workbooks with date in name:
Date format is MMDDYYYY
Workbooks have multipule sheets
Look at columns in worksheet E and G.
If E >=10 and G is "ENABLE" copy A:G and
the tab name and paste in the workbook that has
this VB code.
What I am going to do is create a workbook
with a button on Sheet1 and put your code
behind the button that will tackle this great
feet that I do manually that takes about
3 days to do.

I have 194 Workbooks that all contain data on the first sheet only. I need to go into each sheet and pull the information from cell B6 and F21. That information needs to be copied to a new workbook into columns A and B so when I am done I have 194 lines in two columns.
Each of the workbooks I am pulling from have the info I need in Sheet1.
Is this possible, or do I need to do a lot of copying and pasting? If it is possible, how do I do it?

I have many excel files(nearly 500 in total and growing daily) in a folder called "Results Data" on my C drive. The file names are slightly different (serial numbers). Each excel file contains data in Cells A2:E11. I want to be able to copy only the Cells A2, B4, D5 and E10 from each workbook and paste them into a new workbook, each copied workbook on a new row.
I have been trying to change code that I have found on the web but nothing seems to be working,

I have a series of workbooks residing in different directories which I am trying to copy into a summary workbook. At present what I did is to open the summary workbook and the individual workbook one by one and copy into the summary workbook by first right clicking of the individual workbook's name tab and select copy to copy onto the summary workbook as a new worksheet. I have about 20 individual workbook to copy and this always take a bit of time every week.
To be a bit clearer, the workbooks are in the following directories and the workbook name and sheet name are shown below. For simplicity sake I will only list 3 of them.
1. D:ContractINF00012301.xls the tab name is 2301
2. D:ContractINF0022403.xls the tab name is 2402
3. D:ContractINF00038400.xls the tab name is 8400

I wanted to create a target workbook that is a subset of the source workbook
1) I want to specify a list of worksheets in the source workbook:
For Each WSCurrent In Sheets(Array("SheetA", "SheetB", "SheetC"))
Next WSCurrent
2) I want to them copy these sheets into another workbook (don't know how to code this)
3) I then want to hardcode all these sheets (I don't know the most efficient way to do this)
4) Lastly, I want to eliminate certain columns (can be fed through a hardcoded list of Columns to delete e.g. X, W, Z)

I have a few hundred workbooks that I am merging into a single file. I found the following vba code that performed this task very well.
Sub simpleXlsMerger()
Dim bookList As Workbook
Dim mergeObj As Object, dirObj As Object, filesObj As Object, everyObj As Object[code]....
After I merged the data, I realized that I needed to know the source file that each row of information comes from.
How can I modify the above script to copy the filename and add it as an additional column of information when each sheet is copied into the master file?
For Example:
Currently If I have 3 files:
File 1:
1 2 3
4 5 6
File 2:
a b c
d e f
File 3:
v w x
y a b
Running what I currently have will give me:
1 2 3
4 5 6
a b c
d e f
v w x
y a b

I have a spreadsheet that requires data from different workbooks.But the names of the workbooks are to be received as user input and used dynamically to copy data from that workbook to original workbook.
To make it easier,let me use this example.
I have a workbook named original.xls.It has a command button or any other control.When i click that control it will ask for a workbook name of the project which is in the second column of the "original.xls" workbook.As soon as i enter the workbook name it will copy data from that workbook to the rest of the columns in my "original.xls" workbook.Then it has to ask to ask for second workbook name and do the same procedure till it encounters a blank row.

I am trying to copy and paste between workbooks that are defined in an array. However, I get an out of range error when the code first reaches the line Workbooks(Wkbk(WkbkNum)).Activate.
Sub Gather_Risks()
Dim MasterRow As Integer ' Declares row number in Master Worksheet
Dim RowNum As Integer ' Declares row number in active array worksheet
Dim Wkbk(13) As String
MasterRow = 3
WkbkNum = 0
' Declare Wkbk array
Wkbk(0) = "G:Catering-RiskRegister-0409.xls"
Wkbk(1) = "G:CFO-RiskRegister-0409.xls"
Wkbk(2) = "G:Freight-RiskRegister-0409.xls"
Wkbk(3) = "G:GCA-RiskRegister-0409.xls"
Wkbk(4) = "G:IT-RiskRegister-0409.xls"
Wkbk(5) = "G:People-RiskRegister-0409.xls"
Wkbk(6) = "G:Regional-RiskRegister-0409.xls"
StartAgain:
Workbooks.Open (Wkbk(WkbkNum))
RowNum = 3
Do Until WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Rows(RowNum), "") = 0

1. I have a large number of Test Suites that are large documents with 1 (visible) sheet w/ test cases, and 1 (hidden) sheet w/ validations. Test Suite is saved with a unique name (that follows a naming convention we've set up on this project: <Project>_<Test Suite Category>_<Location in Software>_< date>.xls
2. I need to create a master document in which i can run a macro that will copy each "test suite" sheet from each of these documents, insert it into the master doc, and sort the sheets by name. then it needs to present the data from all of the sheets on the main page of the doc, and break down the results by Test Suite Category, and Location.
Is this possible?
Can I create a macro that will import sheets from (potentially) hundreds of different workbooks, and then sort them appropriately?
I've been looking all over the place, and while i've seen macros that can import specific data, rows, or columns, i havn't quite seen what i'm looking for.

I've got a variable row length list of data, 24 columns wide with column headers in row 7 and file descriptions on the above rows, that I need to split up into seperate Workbooks dependant upon values in the last column, all rows with the same value in column X form the same new Workbook, which I can then SaveAs with a name associated with the value. I've seen a similar thing done to sheets on the forums by using the Advance Filter and I would adapt that to copy each created worksheet to a new workbook, but a) this seems inefficient and b) my unique values are too long to name sheets from.

For work I have to create copies of the same workbook for every day of the month. I have got the following to do it properly, which may not be the best way so I am open to suggestions, but I don't want it to save this macro in every workbook. There are however other macros that I do want it to take with it, just not this one.
Sub SaveByDate()
Dim a As Integer, b As Integer, c As Integer
' number of days in month + 1 (this is just a test; for Jan a = 32)
a = 6
' start date
b = 1
c = 0
For c = 1 To a
If c < a Then
MyMonth = "Jan"
MyDay = b
MyFileName = MyMonth & " " & MyDay & " 2008 daily report"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=MyFileName
b = c + 1
End If
Next c
End Sub

How to copy a formula (16 columns) from a workbook to another, without referencing the source workbook.
Some people are using tricks such as replacing the equal sign "=" for another character such as "^" then using replace all to put the equal sign back again... but this is too much trouble.

I need to copy a range of cells from various columns/rows from 1 sheet into 6 other sheets, but into a specfic range of cells(in the same workbook). I am looking for a code which would copy the cells, then allow me to save the sheets it has copied them to as seperate workbooks without loosing the values it copied. I would also like to make amendments to the cells which have been copied onto the other sheets, without having an error message if I type anything into the cells, also having any blank cells left blank rather than placing the 'o' value in the cell.

(Code at the bottom of this message)
I have a file with a roughly 20 workbooks. I need to split the data in each workbook into two sheets, rename each sheet, then export the data to template with multiple sheets. After splitting the data into the appropriate sheets in the original workbook, Sheet1 in has only 1 row (plus header) and needs to be transferred to "Project Entry" in the template; Sheet2 can have any number of rows (less than 100) and needs to be transferred to "Activity Entry" in the template. I need to save the template based on the value of cell A1 on "Project Entry" sheet of the template. The organization of the columns in the original workbooks is different than that of the template, so this is not a straight copy and paste operation. The cell formatting in the template must be retained.
I have half of this under wraps. I've cobbled together some code that splits the original data where I need it split, copies it to new sheets and saves the files. I now need to figure out out to get it out of this saved file and into the template.
The crosswalk of values between the original data (Sheet1) and the template(Project Entry) needs to look like the below. So, variable 1 exists in column B of the original and needs to populate column B of the template, and column Q in the original needs to populate column G in the template. The variables and column relationships are different for Sheet2/Activity Entry.
SPREADSHEET COLUMN
Variable
Original
Template

I have an Excel file that contains formulas that reference external workbooks on a shared network. Each month, I copy the column of formulas over to the next month's column. Then, to update the file path, I highlight the new column and do a Find-and-Replace, swapping the previous month's name for the current month. This practice works fine. The only thing is ... the "Open File" promptbox appears for each formula where I updated the file path (i.e. and this can be hundreds instances!). I wind-up having to choose the file from the exact same file path. It is an unnecessary, and annoying extra step to take.

I want to copy the current region on sheet 3 and paste that into sheet2 starting with cell E4. But I don't want to actually use the copy method. I believe there is a way to do this. I was thinking the following:
[Code] ......
The idea I had was to simply state that cell E4 would be assigned the value of CurrentRegion on sheet 3. Is there a way to bypass the copy method?
If not, how to copy, then paste?

I have 25 files with certain worksheets that I need to move to 25 other files.
Worksheet 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Workbook A needs to be moved to Workbook A-2014 Worksheet 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Workbook B needs to be moved to Workbook B-2014 Worksheet 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Workbook C needs to be moved to Workbook C-2014 etc....
Is there a way to do this with a macro? Preferably I would like to do this automaticly - i.e. runing the macro from a master file that
1. Opens Workbook A copies the worksheets
2. Open Workbook A-2014 paste the sheets
3. Save and close Workbook A-2014
4. Close workbook A without saving
then doing the same for Workbook B, etc.

Basically the main workbook opens 2 files at a time performs a calculate in the main workbook and then copies and pastes information in 3 ranges. Then closes the two open workbooks and loops and performs same operations until it hits the maximum loops. My macro is as follows and I have 3 question in capital letters.
