Searching For Mistakes In Document While Using Another Document As Reference

Feb 2, 2014

I am processing a fair few Invoices, which are being sent to me via e-mail as excel documents, very often they contain mistakes, a decent amount of mistakes. Usually the prices are wrong.

I keep track of every single entry on the invoice on my own document - Tracker, which I consider to be the superior/more correct document to the Invoice presented to me by my contractor.

Both of the documents have a reference number, which is a specific docket number, and horizontally, in the invoice, there is going to be a price for this docket. In my document, there is going to be a separate column for the total price.

Is it possible (I guess with VBA) to check for mistakes in the Invoice, but use the Tracker as a reference for this check.

Tracker has
columns
A - Name
B - Department
C - Date
D - Docket No.
C - Total price for the docket (calculation of E to Z)
E to Z - all smaller entries

Invoice has
columns
A - Date
B - Docket No.
C to E price for that docket, but it is spread, because departments are separated out, so each VAT account can be charged accordingly. I guess it is possible to do a separate column for the price, if it is easier to do a script that way.

Basically, I need to check if in the Invoice document, the price (C to E) for Docket No. (B) is the same as the price (C) for the Docket No. (D) in the Tracker.

I would like the wrong entries to be highlighted on the Invoice Document, so I can see straight away, that this needs attention.

Not always the price is wrong, sometimes the Docket No. is spelled incorrectly (Dyslexic contractor), hence the highlighting.

Changing Formula To Reference Spreadsheet From External Excel Document

Nov 22, 2011

how to change the formula below which is referencing an internal worksheet, to a forumula that will reference an external worksheet that is located in an excel document on the G: Drive.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(1210laradj_v_2009!F2:F65536="HMO-ALT SELECT"),--(ISNUMBER(MATCH(1210laradj_v_2009!AO2:AO65536,{3,5,9,12,37,39,46,47,54,73,74,75,76,77,78},0))))

So what it's doing is totaling the counts in the 1210laradj worksheet that match columns HMO-ALT SELECT as well as the numbers 3,5,9 etc.

Well now these worksheets will be on a seperate excel spreadsheet located on a network drive, so I am trying to figure out how I can fix this.

I tried adding it in like so, but it fails.

=SUMPRODUCT(--('G:ROC-CLAIMSAudit ResultsProvider infomonthly statsReproc'd claims2011ProductionCounts[0111rpt2235_laradj_v.xls]0111laradj_v_2009'!F2:F65536="HMO-ALT SELECT"),--(ISNUMBER(MATCH(1210laradj_v_2009!AO2:AO65536,{3,5,9,12,37,39,46,47,54,73,74,75,76,77,78},0))))

Creating PDF File From Word Document Inside Folder With ID Number And Reference Number?

Jul 31, 2014

I have an excel database where I register cases. I have in it a button that creates a folder with and ID nr that is in column A (I create new ID nr in the next row, when I press the button it will create a folder with that ID nr and inserts a blank word document in it). We have a template that we copy to the folder (depending what type of case). The idea would be that once the template is filled in and ready to print, It would take the values from the ID nr and a reference number a few cells to the right. Is it possible to tell excel to open the word document in the folder and create a PDF version with the ID nr and reference number. (there are only 2 templates, so the macro would have to look for one of the two in the folder) The names of the templates are: "Standard" and "Other". I guess the best way to start maybe this would be that I select the cell with the ID nr and then press a macro button to have this done. One thing that needs to be done, is to put a copy in the same folder and another in a second folder called "Binder" in my documents folder.

Re-arrange The Document?

Aug 4, 2008

I have an excel document with a list of about 12,000 names/addresses. They are currently displayed like this:

A B C
1 <name1> <name2> <name3>
2 <address1> <address2> <address3>
3 <zip1> <zip2> <zip3>


...and I want to re-arrange them so they are displayed horizontally:

A B C
1 <name1> <address1> <zip1>
2 <name2> <address2> <zip2>
3 <name3> <address3> <zip3>

Is there any possible way of doing this quickly without copying/pasting 12,000 lines of text?

Cannot Sort Whole Document

Oct 31, 2013

I am trying to sort a document alphabetically but cannot. I have two lines in the doc that previously had headers on them. I was able to remove them, but am now left with a row that has what looks like a backwards L in the last cell. The bottom line is also darker, but there is not a detectable border set. If I choose the rows that include these rows in my sort option, it is disabled. Sorting is available if I do not. I need to sort everything.

Is there a way that I can have an excel document "autosave"?

Specificaly I would like: If a value in a specific cell's value is changed I would like the document to automatically save the document as the name of the value that is typed into that cell when the user closes the document.

I'm not sure if this is possible, but it would be great if there was some way to do this.

Protecting The Document

Jan 15, 2008

Version used: Excel 2003

I have a spreadsheet that everyone in my department uses. My boss has asked me to protect certain columns so that only I can edit them but leave others so that the rest of the depratment can use those.

I have tried locking the ones I am to use and unlocking the ones the others can use then protecting the document. This works well enough as far as it goes, however, it is combersome having to unprotect then reprotect it every time I need to work on it. Also, that method makes the drop down lists that we are using for easy sorting no longer function.

Document Stability

Mar 18, 2009

I am currently building a program in Excel, which can carry out numerious tasks. Having over 15 userforms, countless macros and several worksheets of caculations in the background, basically all geared towards capturing customer data, producing a application form and submitting the data to an ".mdb" file.

Now everything is going well so far with little in the way of problems and the document is 2.5Mb in size (users centrally access this Read Only). I'm conducting a daily Clean Project on this but I have a few questions...

1) how far can I push an Excel workbook in terms of size/content before it becomes unstable

2) are there any tips that can be offered for program stability

3) Has anyone built anything on this scale before

...the reason I ask is the program could potentially double in size over the next 6 months depending on the volume of application types it is able to produce. I want to make sure I have considered stability.

Query An Xml Document With Ado

I was able to create a recordset of data and then save the recordset as an XML document. This XML document is aggregated data for a chart in Excel.

As you can see below, I think I found the Driver I need to use??? I am not sure that this is correct for Excel VBA ADO???

sSQL = "Select * From C:ADO.XML"

When I open the recordset.open sSQL, cnDB the error I get is this:
"The filename, directory name, or volumne label syntax is incorrect"

Set GetXMLDB = New ADODB.Connection

List Recent Changes To Document?

Oct 22, 2007

Is there a way to list the recent changes to an excel document on the document itself?

For example, I have just 4 or 5 columns in the sheet, but out the the right on the 7th column I'll have a header that says "Recent Changes". Below that for X amount of rows, I would like it to keep a running change list something like this:

B14 was changed from '6.021' to '6.5' by username on 10/21/07 3:45 pm
A23 was changed from 'Sally' to 'Billy' by username on 10/21/07 2:30 pm

I thought this up by looking at the way the "Track Changes" functionality works on the Tools menu. That will highlight the cells in blue as they are changed and will also let someone look back through changes to let them accept or deny.

Macro To Format A Document

Dec 20, 2007

I am recording a macro to help me with formatting a document. I know do this manually, but realized that if I record a macro and run it the process would be faster. I have tried this and it works really well. However the problem is that although the columns are always the same, the rows increase and decrease everytime I download the raw report.

When I record the macro and then run it, it only selects the number of rows that I choose when I record the macro. I am sure there is a way to have the macro look for date and then stop after there is no more rows, but I can't find it in help.

I have tried selecting the whole document, but that slows the automated formatting down significantly.

Creating A CSV Document From A Sheet

May 15, 2008

I've got an Excel document that is generated from a third party programme (See ExcelDoc attached)

I'm trying to manipulate it so that a macro creates a CSV file like the one attached (see THK.csv)

I need to have the following columns in the CSV file populated using the Excel spreadsheet
Column A: Will need to have the NUMBER that is in cell B2 of the Excel file in this case the number is 0714 (need to keep the preceeding 0 too)
Column B: Will need the phone number
Column C: Will need the fax number
Column D: Will need to have the email address
Column E: Will need to have the date only
Column F: Will need to have the Order Number
Column G: Will need to have the Customer name
Column H: Will need to have the Customer telephone number
Column I: Will need to have the Customer alternative telephone number
**Column J: Will need to have the 1st line of the address (after First Address in xls doc)
Column K: Will need to have the 2nd line of the address
Column L: Will need to have the 3rd line of the address
Column M: Will need to have the 4th line of the address
Column N: Will need to be a blank cell
Column O: Will need to be a blank cell
Column P: Will need to be a blank cell
Column Q: Will need to be a blank cell
Column R: Will need to be a blank cell
Column S: Will need to be populated with the information that is after the field MyAddress: in Cell B11 of the xls document.

I've managed to get a macro that will take the information and transpose it into a new document and rename it as an CSV file but I am having a lot of problems trying to get the macro to create the CSV file in the format that I need.

**This cell is generated and will have commas at the end of each line of the address and will be terminated by a period (at line 4 of the address. Sometimes there will be 4 lines to an address but sometimes there may only be 2 or three. In the case where there is no information I need to have a blank (null) value in the cell

Document Not Saved 1004

May 15, 2009

I have an xls file that has many sheets in.

One of the sheets is a sumamry sheet that get's dulpicated, values pasted, then (the single sheet) exported to a new file. Upon trying to save this file, I keep getting the run time 1004 error message and that my document cannot be saved.

I've struggled for days trying to find out the source to no avail.

What is more frustrating is that when I try to save it (after exiting the macro), it seems to work ok.

I do get the compatability error message (which I don't get on the 'original/parent' workbook) there is a not about format errors, though I'm not sure that's the source of the problem.

VBA Code Closing A Document

Jul 8, 2009

I have my VBA Code set up to open a specific file and copy paste that information into this open spreadsheet in a particular sheet.

The only problem I have is that I don't know how to close the document once its opened.

I know that I can manually close it, but I want my macro to take care of it for me.

If anybody has suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.

Here is my code so far to help out.

Sheets("Ann Ret Data").Select

Workbooks.Open Filename:="P:InvINVpubAndrew EdgarMarket Value Projectperformance_data.xlsx"
Columns("A:G").Select
Selection.Copy

Print The Word Document

Nov 2, 2009

I have a worksheet that is pretty handy right now. I have a print button that automatically sends the doc to print with the specs I want, etc, etc. It has drop down lists, data validations, etc. What I want, and this may be impossible, is when the print button is clicked excel looks at a certain cell and based on the data in that cell, it pulls over a word document and prints that along with it.

In short, the items in the drop down list in the cell I have chosen have a different disclosure that goes with each, and I would like if possbile those to be printed from word...based on which item is picked....along with the spreadsheet when the print button is clicked.

Document Recovery Window

Jun 3, 2006

When I start Excel I get a Document Recovery Window that lists a file that was lost some time ago. I don't need the file and don't want the window appearing. If I click on the listed file, or right click and select "open", "save as", or "show repairs", the window disappears and I get a blank document.

I know I could write code that would automatically close the window when I start Excel, but there has to be a better way. I DO want the window to appear when there is really a file that needs to be recovered, but I don't want the listed file and don't want the window.
