trying to import another excel workbook with its location being flexible as the file-name will change.
This is what i got so far
Code:
Dim selectFile As String
selectFile = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Excel Files, *.xls*" _
, FilterIndex:=1, Title:="Open Excel file" _
, MultiSelect:=False)

I want to do is import a range from this workbook into the workbook attached. In the attached workbook on I have a Import Form where I can select the relevant workbook. I then want to be able to click import and it then goes to the source workbook and imports to the range specified. The code below is what I have got, the problem I have is that it doesnt recognize the range of data to import.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook called MASTER. MASTER has a macro I need to run in another workbook(wb2) I receive thru email. The problem is that wb2 can have any given name because someone else creates it.
With MASTER and wb2 (which can have any name) open, I need a macro that would select and/or make active whichever other workbook is open OTHER THAN MASTER.
I am working with two files everyday: today's and yesterday's. Each report has the day's date in the name of the file.
So I'll take today's (11-5) and import it into yesterday's (11-4). Then, tomorrow I'll take 11-6 and import into 11-5. The day after, I'll take 11-7 and import into 11-6. So on and so forth. I'm trying to figure out how I can get VBA to accommodate these changes in names. So that it sees the date in the name of today's report, sees that it is today's, then selects yesterday's (or says "Open yesterday's report!"), and imports the information.
I can figure out everything else, just not the naming issue.
I guess I could always stipulate to the person running it that they should only have these two workbooks open and that they should run the macro starting in yesterday's workbook. Just writing VBA code to select the only other workbook so VLOOKUP can be done from it. But I am trying to make it fool proof.
I want to create a VBA that import data from another workbook. when i run the Macro it give me the option to choose the file and when i select the file then copy data from sheet 1 (A1:D1) and paste to my active worksheet. I do not want the other file open because it is too big and takes fro ever to open it.

Below code that is about filter code, but above what is the code for import the value (only value don't need any format).
I want to use VBA button because it will be easier for next time if i want to update my work.
At work I have a folder full of .bas files containing useful UDF's.
At the moment I am the only person in my team that makes use of these files as importing a .bas file is beyond the rest of the team (i.e. then know it contains code so they get scared).
What I'd like to do is create a workbook where they can select one of the files (each file contains a single UDF), maybe see what it does (I put an explanation in the Comments section of the properties for each file) and then have it automatically imported into the workbook of their choice so they can make use of these functions.
I would require VB help as follows:
I will assume that I have a workbook called "Target.xls" and another workbook called "Source.xls"
1. "Target.xls" workbook has sheets called (S1),(S2),(S3) and (S4), in sheet (S1) there is a button called {Import Data}
2. "Source.xls" workbook has sheets called (S1),(S2),(S3) and (S4), those sheets are identical with the same sheets of the workbook "target.xls".
3. When you press the button {Import Data} in the "Target.xls" workbook the following actions shall happen:
1. A dialog box will open and ask you about the workbook which you want to import data from.
2. You will select a workbook from the list of the hard disk or any drive, supposing you selected "Source.xls" workbook
3. You will prompt a confirmation box to confirm the import action.
4. When you press OK then certain cells (same cells always, e.g. Range a1:c7) from the sheets called (S1),(S2),(S3) & (S4) from the workbook "Source.xls" will be copied (not linked) to the same cells in the workbook "Target.xls".
I have a rather large workbook with around 10 sheets. i want to setup a 'export' button on this workbook that will allow a user to save raw data from this workbook into another excel workbook and an ' import' button that will allow user to import raw data and use the existing formulas/links from this large workbook.
As in sample file, i want to be able to export/import all the cells that are orange in colour (in my actual file, all raw data cells are not actually orange, thought colour coding it would make my problem easier to understand)
I was thinking around these options:
1) Copy and then PasteValues from the large worksheet into another workbook for exporting and same idea for importing
2) For all raw data, copy out all the values and put their corresponding addresses in another excel sheet. e.g. column1: Sheet1!$A$1, column2: value
and import it in by reading the address n value.
I have found code by John Walkenback
I need to adapt it to allow several worksheets to be exported to a workbook .cvs .Then imported back into the original workbook including all blanks.
I have included the Walkenback workbook and a test workbook that I have been playing with.
Just about reached the brick wall with my abilities on this problem
I want to make a range variable ("testrange") that I can use to define a range of non-continuous cells and then use that range variable to select that range of cells in different worksheets within the same workbook.
I tried the below code (simply coloring cells red), but get an error when I try to select "testrange" after moving to the next worksheet.
[Code] .....
The next worksheet is also supposed to have the same range of cells colored red, but I can only get it to work on the first active sheet.
I would like to avoid having to repeatedly rebuild the range I want selected each time I move to a different worksheet.
I have x number of sheets in a workbook, and I am looking to copy sheets a, b and c into a new workbook that I will create.
The a, b and c are in no order, or consecutive (although they could be). I want to be able to count the number of sheets in the workbook, and traverse through that to find sheets that I need, and select them to copy over to a new workbook.
I have an employee schedule that is a whole year. I'm trying to extract only the next two weeks worth of columns. I'll schedule it to run once a day. Some information... The calender has the dates listed in Row 2 on Sheet called Daily Schedule The 2 week calendar would be on sheet 7 called Two Week Calendar There are only weekdays on sheet 1 Daily Schedule so if there is nothing matching today's date just stop and do nothing I would like it to save the whole file when complete
I have written some of the simplest code but I don't know how to select by today's date then copy that column plus 9 to the right.
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objExcel.Visible = True

is there any way to open a workbook and select a sheet within the book without having the entire name?
I've got a unique workbook and worksheet identifier but don't know how to use wildcards to get my macro to open the right workbook.
I have a worksheet which is used by multiple users at the same time, at the end of the day I can have upto 10 files. The layout of all the files is the same, same number of columns and rows, the only difference would be the file name eg:Test1.xls, Test2.xls etc. information in test1.xls will not be any other file. At the end of the day, these files are emailed and saved in a particular folder.
What I need is get information from all the files saved in a particular folder and keep columns which have data. Additionally, if there is no data for any columns after combining the columns to display an alert. The final file should have information with only data in individual columns and arranged in the order such as Center 1, center 2, Center 3
Eg:test1
Column A Column B Column C.....upto 30 columns
Center 1 Center 2 center 3....upto 30 centers
1 4
2
3 5
test2.xls
Column A Column B Column C.....upto 30 columns
Center 1 Center 2 Center 3.....upto 30 centers
5
The final file will look like this
Finaltest.xls
Column A Column B Column C.....upto 30 columns
1 4 4
2 5
3 5
I have a main workbook that uses a macro to open a workbook provided to me from another department. This workbook contains a sheet that is basically a copy of the sheet in the main document and has the same sheetname and same codename.
The macro should copy the sheet data from the site workbook to the sheet in the main workbook. However, when i tell the workbook to select the sheet in the site file using its codename it errors....

I'm trying to import data in to an existing workbook. When i run the macro in the existing workbook, a new workbook opens and the data is dropped there. What do i need to change to get the data to pull back in to the existing workbook?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am using the following code to import data from a closed workbook;
Code:
Dim SaveDriveDir As String, MyPath As String
Dim FName As Variant

I'd like to modify it slightly so that it only imports data according to the following criteria;
The used range from A3 onwards but only if the row in column G shows 'Never' or the figure is 30 or more. If column G passes, (so neither of the criteria apply), then column J is checked for the same criteria and if so imported.

There are 7 files on the network that everyone updates. These are contact databases for clients, insurance companies, our agents, etc. Any changes that need to be made are made. The first person to open a file will get edit mode, the others will only get read-only mode. I rarely have to edit, so if I'm first then I'll invariably be asked to exit so others can update them. I've tried doing the share workbook, but it's not working. That's not what I'd like to do anyway.
I've made a workbook with 7 different sheets, each tab named after one of the network databases. I'd like for these sheets to automatically update if/when changes are made to the master - but keep my formatting intact. Right now I'm relying on import external data, but that doesn't update. Therefore, I have to delete and re-import every morning, losing all of my formatting. Surely Excel has an easier way to do this?
The databases are highly sensitive information so I can't really attach one - but I will attach a dummy example of what they all look like. Each file is hundreds of rows and maybe 15-20 columns, so the thought of linking each cell is more than I'm looking to do.
I am importing data from an outside excel file to several other files. I requested that the data be refreshed every time I open the file that references the outside excel file. Whenever I have a file open that references the outside excel file, I can only open the outside excel file in a read-only state. Why is this, and is there any way around this issue?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to import data from another closed workbook? I used the macro recorder and it gives me something like this
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='[CASHFLOW.xls]Sheet1'!R66C5"
I don't think this is the best way, since it asks me to update links when I reopen the file.
I am basically after a script that can be run from a persons workbook via an Excel Addin, e.g. they click an "Update" button, and the script imports the Forms and Modules from another workbook that i specify.
I do not however want the data held on the spreadsheet to change, just the Modules & Forms in the VBA project.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 30 and above sheets in a work book and like that I am having 5 such
books. The sheets are named as 201, 202, 203 ....etc as per the contents in
that particular sheets. (201, 202 .....are the P.O nos.). all the work
sheets are of having similar format of datas.
Now what I need is if I want to look the details of one single sheet (say
324) I have go all the sheets one by one and it is hard to find out.
If any body give me a solution so that if I type a particular no. (forms
part of the name of the sheet) that sheet should appear for me.
How can I import specific cells from say Workbook A and B to Workbook C automatically? For example. As I type in a cell in Workbook A then Workbook C reflects it straight away. Same as when I typ in Workbook B the C updates automatically. The end result will be that Workbook C automatically updates itself to show data from specific cells in Workbooks A &B.
