I have about 80 workbooks all saved in the same folder as numbers (from 1.xls, 2.xls, etc). All of the files have a similar template. I want to write a macro that will open each workbook and then copy the impt part out of each file and then paste into a master record for that category. I will probably end up with 20 different files (age, procedure, etc). Any idea of the best way to do this?
View 9 Replieshow I can loop through folders to select files starting with a certain word and copy all of them to a different folder and rename them. The folder structure is given below
Company 1(parent folder)
North South East(sub folder) West(sub folder)
Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec
In the above structure, the files are present inside each folders Jan, feb...Dec under the regions North, South East n west. note that I have to select files starting with "Sales" and copy them into a new folder(say results) and rename copied files as Sales1.xls, Sales2.xls etc. (Files are not present in the folder company1, north, south, east and east.)
I have 40,000 part numbers that range in style.
For example:
13538-AL
BC-DIB-13
13750U
13762-1
I want to take all the numbers that have the ending tag "-XX" that are LETTERED but NOT the numbered combo (just like example 13538-AL) and remove the tag to just have the root 5-digit number.
I have all the end tag combos I would like removed. SO if I needed -AL, -LG, -CG, -SS, etc. removed, I would need the formula that would find all the 5-digit numbers with those end tags and remove those tags, leaving the other numbers alone.
I want to bulid a code that enables me to open windows search result with a search string I define from excel data.
For example, I have folder path "X:workers".
In it, I want to search all the files with the string "dave".
The search string source is a cell in excel.
I have a macro that checks data in a worksheet and manipulates the data.
the problem that I am finding is that the worksheet data, which is copied from another file, is different sizes - eg: in one file the data may be from a1 to f2890 but another file the data may be from a1 to f5990.
When the file is bigger I have noted that the macro does not check the rows between 2890 to 5990.
How can i get it do check all the cells no matter how big the file is?
Am creating a large medical teaching database on Excel that lists JPEG images (a few hundred) and the file paths for each image into separate Excel columns using a VBA macro.
The JPEG image filenames are numbered in ascending numerical format (i.e 1.jpeg).
I'm trying to code a macro to search through all the files in certain folders to find a value defined by the user. The rows containing that value will then be copied and pasted into a separate workbook. My boss currently planning on storing about 550 different files (90 days worth of data) between these folders, but there is the possibility of years worth of data collection, should he change his mind about the 90 days, so I'd like the code to be efficient if possible. What I've tried to do is search each file for the value, then set a range equal the first row containing that value. If the value is found in that workbook, the code loops through the worksheet, adding all the other rows with that value to the range. Then the file looping exits (the values I'm looking for are only contained in one of the workbooks) and the range is copied and pasted into the master workbook. Each workbook has only one sheet.
I'm currently getting a run-time error "13" Type Mismatch error when it gets to the line where the code is supposed to find the value and initialize the range.
Code:
Private Sub SubmitButton_Click()
Dim mybook As Workbook
Dim masterbook As Workbook
Dim rownunm As Long
Dim pathparts(1 To 5) As String

master spreadsheet resides in x directory, up to 100 individuals upload a file into that directory weekly. The uploaded files are from the exact same template, but file-names are slightly different
Is there a way to to extrapolate the data in specific cells from each sheet, to the master sheet. Ideally separated by date of submission (or a date supplied from within the uploaded sheet itself)
I'm guessing at using a variable like "*" in the file name
- but that would include the master file? causing duplicate data
- what about duplicate submission dates?
I need a formula (but most likely a VBA macro) that will search through a folder for a file than get data from that file. The files are named in systematic way, but I need the entire formula to work from inputting a mold number in one cell. E.g. I input 6291 in cell A2 the vba macro searches for file “6291 mold.xlsx” and returns a range of numbers as well as pictures in specified cells. Is this possible? If so how?
The closest thing I have found is VBA macro that retrieves a list of media files in a folder, I listed the code below.

I have several excel files in a folder, and they are named:
AA v.5
AA v.6
AA v.7
AA v.8
BB v.5
BB v.7
CC v.8
CC v.6
The "AA" and "BB" are names of who created it and v.5 are the week it was created.
What I would like to do is in an Excel file be able to choose to retrieve information about for example how man files with v.5 in its name.
OR information about all files with "BB v." in its name (to see all files created bye BB)
Or "BB v.4" (all files created bye BB in week 4)
Or "BB v.4"+"BB v.5"+"CC v.6"
The reason for this is that I would like to be able to create statistics from this so that I can see how it has changed like in a graph. So that I can see the difference and compare how many files BB and CC have created and which week.

I want to allow users to place files (.jpg, .tif, .pdf, .pps etc) into a network folder and then have my program open each file and display it for 30 seconds then close the file and the application before opening the next file.
1. Set up a loop to get a directory listing of the folder and write the listing to a text file.
2. Open up the text file and get the next filename in it
3. Open the file in the associated application
4. Wait for 30 seconds (or some period of time) and then close the file
5. Repeat steps 2-4
DoIt = 1
While DoIt = 1
Open "C:TempList.txt" for output as #1
Print #1, Files In Folder
Close #1
Open "C:TempList.txt" for input as #2
while not eof(2)
Line input #2, MyFile
Display MyFile on screen
Wait for 30 seconds
Close MyFile and MyApplication that opened it
wend
Close #2
I can get the directory listing just fine with no problems
I can open the files in the associated application just fine with no problems.
with closing the application after 30 seconds or some period of time.
I need some code that will allow me to easily send it a filename and it will know how to close the file and the application that opened it.
I have an Excel application (Excel 2003) which is stored in the default Program Files folder by the Installer; for example: c:program fileszxchello.xls. The problem I am running into is this file opens as Read Only in Vista and this is interfering with the running of the application. There is no problem opening the file normally in Windows XP.
I have been able to narrow down the cause of this to the User Account Control system in Vista - if I turn OFF User Account Control, the Excel file opens normally and my application functions normally. Is there another option to open the Excel file without turning OFF User Account Control because some users may find it unacceptable to turn OFF this security feature. Ofcourse, one option is to install the application in another location, outside the Program Folder, and the file would open normally, but the Packaging Wizard that I am using to package the application does not allow me to install the application in any other location and thus, the application installs in the Program Folder and I am running into this problem of the Exel file opening as Read Only. Is there a way out of this situation where I can open the file normally (not as Read Only)?

I is it possible to convert all comma separated text files in a single folder in to excel files. But the requirement is to have 2 sheets in each new file. first to be the full file - with all columns, and in the second sheet to keep only colum A B D G H K L M O P R S T V W from the first sheet. The second sheet name must be the same as the first one but without the first "wlist_" in the name.
One more thing. The third column in the second is called "COUL". there are short letters for colors in french
can they be converted with the sort in English like it goes:
NO = B
BA = W
RG = R
SO = P
JA = Y
BE = L
VE = GY
GR = G
VI = V
MA = BR
BJ = TA
OR = O
Here is a link to the both CSV and an example excel file with the end result. In this example i haven`t change the shorts for the colors. It takes me too much time with the find and replace function. And at the moment i`m really pushed from time.

I have 50 files each with 1000 numbers in column A.
I need to compare every list with every other list and calculate the Pearson function.
I am ok with the vb code to compare every file with everyother.
I can do this by opening each file then closing but it takes too long.
Each of the 50 csv file names is in my destination workbook
I would like to define an array using the file name, then extract 2 lists without opening the files then perform the pearson function and place the value in the destination workbook. (The pearson function just measures the strength of correlation between 2 sets of numbers)
I 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+).
I have about 100 Excel files in one folder that need to be saved as text files. They can keep the same name, but simply need to be converted to text files. I'd like to use VBA for this and I can't find examples that do exactly that...or ones that my limited knowledge can handle.
Excel files exist in C:Source and ALL of them should be saved as text files in C:Destination. Maybe there is an easier way, but I thought for sure there was a routine I could use.
I have 22 CSV files. I want to search each of those files for a specific text string (ie: "profile" or "description"). When the macro finds the word in any one of the CSV files I want it to copy that complete csv worksheet and paste it into an excel xls file.
how I can go about doing this. Not also that while vlookup is possible, its very time consuming if i have to do this 50 times over and each time the csv files have different file names. that is why i want to search within a file (each file has its own unique identifying text string)
I have the code below. It openes all csv files within a folder, then delete rows depending on the value of a cell. Now it needs to save the file as a xls file ....
