Taking The Value Of A Range Of Cells From One Workbook And Place Them In Another
May 12, 2007
I've been trying to learn how to write code in VBA. I've been learning for about 2 weeks now (trying to learn it for work) and heres my problem. I have a macro that will create a pivot table from raw data that I input. From this pivot table, I want to go to the last row in the pivot table (the row that takes grand totals of each column of data). I want to write a macro that will take those values (located in a workbook called AR age sorting) and place them in cells in another workbook (called AR aging analysis). Basically cells D6-D9 in workbook "AR aging analysis" should equal the values of the last row in my pivot table in workbook "AR age sorting" (last cell with data in columns J-M). I thought this would be easy but I've run into some issues. Heres the code I use:
Sub aging_summary()
Dim Sheet1 As Worksheet
Dim Sheet2 As Worksheet
Set Sheet1 = Sheets("AR age sorting")
Set Sheet2 = Sheets("AR aging analysis")
For n = 10 To 13
For M = 6 To 9
Sheet2.Range(Cells(M, 4), Cells(M, 4)). _
Value = Sheet1.Range(Cells(n, 1), Cells(n, 1)). _
End(x1Down).Value
Next M
Next n
End Sub
I don't want it to copy and paste the values since I just need the value, not all the extra formatting and what not that is incorporated in the pivot table. When I try to run this I get an error message, saying that there is an application-defined or user-defined error.
I have 26 ranges defined on my worksheet sheet3. Each range is 10 rows high and 4 columns wide. On my sheet1, I'd like to be able to go automatically to a specific range on sheet3 (I need to provide the choice to go to any of the 26 ranges), selected perhaps by a combobox. The ranges are building occupancy groups like A1, A2, B, E, R1, R2, etc. (26 of them). Then I'd like the user to look at each row in that particular range, select one, and then have the four values in that row placed in corresponding cells on sheet1.
I have this set up now using a four column combobox, and it works just like I want, except that only the first column of data is displayed after a row is selected. If I could get those four cells of data as they appear in the combobox inserted on sheet1, I'd be fine. But I can't. So I'm looking for a work-around. Basically, my goal is to get a specific row of data (4 cells wide) from my named ranges copied into cells on sheet1. But I need to be able to get to the correct range automatically.
I have a column of data that keeps getting new information in it. what i need is a named range that i can use for a chart, first point in the named range will be the first value in the column, second point will be avg. of point 1 and 2, then 3rd point will be avg. of 1,2,3 etc.
I have 2 separate workbooks that are linked together and work in tandem. One is the Master Workbook "Master Business Plan Worksheet For Sale.xlsm" and the other is the one containing all the Menu Items for the business "Menu Items Workbook.xlsm"
I have a Master Recipe Sheet that I created in the Master Workbook and made sure it all works. Now I have copied it to the Menu Items workbook and copied all the Userforms and created Macros for it but I need setting up the references to the other sheet. I have included the code from the first sheet for you to look over. The textboxes all need to populate to the Master Workbook and all the info for the combo boxes are also in the Master Workbook.
Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() 'Populate Measurement combo box. Dim rngMeasurement As Range Dim ws As Worksheet
I have a workbook that compares two sheets of data by taking the difference between the two. Some of the cells contain N/A for value, so when I take the difference of two sheets, it gives me #Value! error. My question is how can I format it, so when the cell contains text it displays N/A or if its a value: it takes the difference and populates the value.
I have a code below to only allow a number to be entered into one of 2 cells. I'm trying to do conditional formatting based on these to cells, and the evidence is showing that even when I type a value into either I21 or I22, they are taking on a value of zero.
I have conditional formatting stating that if I21>0, then do one thing. And in a separate cell, I have =I22>0, then do another thing. Neither works, and even using =I22<>0, then do formatting, and it doesn't work, telling me that the assumed value is always zero.
I m not able to use the standard Excel Paste Special function when I copied a range of cells in another Excel workbook opened in a separate instance of Excel. Instead, Paste Special thinks that I have copied some non-Excel objects and gave me the Paste As options. This is not the case if I open both workbook within the same instance of Excel. Could you share with us if there is a trick to trigger the normal Paste Special options in such situations (without having to invoke Macro procedures)?
I hope my title was clear enough, but I’m not sure how to set this up. I have numbers in cells B4 and B13. I want to take the largest of these two numbers and multiply it by 0.85. I then want to take this number and compare it to a number in cell B23. If B23 is greater than the larger of B4 and B13 X 0.85, I want B33 to display “No” in a boldfaced red font. If B23 is less than the larger of B4 and B13 X 0.85, I want B33 to display “Yes” in a normal black font. This formula will be in cell B33.
I know that VBA doesn't always slim down workbook size and calculations are calculations whether in VBA or Formula format; but in this instance, do you think VBA would be a better choice? This workbook is currently enormous in size and slow, and I think I can slim it down if I used the right VBA procedures. However, Im not certain what those procedures would be.
On two seperate worksheets in a workbook, I have a column that contains a formula that references a third sheet.
Ok, here's the scenario: On the "Order" sheet, I have a list of orders from my company; on the "turn-In" sheet, a list of turn-ins. The "Bank" sheet lists ALL transactions (ORDER AND TURN-IN).
On both the turn-in and Order sheets, the formula is pretty much the same; it references a different column on the bank sheet, but does it the exact same way. Ok... The Order sheet lists all order from the company by order number (column A); the formula uses that order number and finds the transaction on the "Bank" sheet and returns the order cost as the result. however, the order numbers on the bank sheet have a 5 digit prefix on them (the prefix is the same on all orders, its used by the bank but only orders with my 5 digit prefix are on the list sent to me and pasted to this sheet. So all orders on bank sheet have the same prefix)
The below formula is in Cell C10 on "Order" Sheet; Column C lists the Cost reported by the bank. The formula below references the Bank sheet database, looks for an order number that matches the order number in A10 (Adding the prefix of course), and returns a cooresponding cost for that transaction.
I know this seems long for what it is, but it has to add the prefix, and then match the order number, and reference the cooresponding cost.
The kicker, this forumla is in more than 10,000 cells; 6,000 on the order sheet, and 5,000 on the turn-in sheet. Of course the references are a little different, but the principle is the same for all of them.
Is there a way to do this in VBA to save space and resources? This formula is really dragging.
I am working on a workbook in which I extract data from a SQL database into a sheet with more or less the following format:
ID_Company ID_Level ID_XX
[Code].....
The aim is to extract a list of any employee that has been tagged as "NEW" in the last column, with his/her detail as per the column headings - and place the resulting list in another sheet. The extract is done dynamically and varies from month to month. So in other words the column headings 2013.MAY and 2013.JUN will change next month to 2013.JUN and 2013.JUL respectively - and so would the detail of the data below them as well. The "NEW" tag is simply assigned through an IF statement.
I had a look at most of the Excel Magic trick video clips on YouTube and managed to get a data extract from my main data sheet - BUT was only able to do the extract on the SAME sheet and NOT onto another sheet in the same workbook.
Firstly, I have attached a file called test2 which has two sheets within it, one called list and one called 12345. This is for demonstration purposes only as in real life these are both separate files.
What I am trying to do is create a history in the file called list that extracts certain data from the file called 12345 and places it in a more user friendly format. No problems with the formulas etc, just a case of a few ifs and buts.
My real problem lies in the fact that file 12345 is only one of hundreds of files and in order to create the history, I have to repeat the process on all the other files, so that the list grows as I copy the data. Again for demo purposes, the file "list" sits in the C root ie C:list and the job files sit in C:files*.*.
Is there a way to automate the process so that formulas or VBA residing in the file "list" searches through the C:files*.* and populates the list as it runs through them.
I am after a macro to do the following, my visual basic skills are very limited (non existant):- Look at the date in cell A1 on Sheet 'Live Report' and err 'remember it' Copy a range of cells from A3 to A10 on 'Live Report' Go to sheet 'Monthly Summary' and find the date that had been remembered previously (this date will be in column A on 'Monthly Summary' which will probably be a mixture of values and formulas). After the date has been found paste special and transpose the 'values only' copied range from 'Live Report' (A3 to A10) in column B on 'Monthly Summary' next to the date that has been found in Column A.
I'm working on an assignment that pulls information for different countries and I'd like to know how to go about placing the charts on a specific area. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
The concept:
With each click of a country, the country's information will be pulled from a 'data dump' that I created in the same file. The map and flag are also shown. Some of that information is just using lookups, or a combination of lookups and code, and the hardest part are the GRAPHS - which I'm having a really hard time placing and adjusting accordingly.
The problem:
As of now the charts are automatically filled as the user clicks a new country, but all of the charts are placed in weird locations, but I'd like for them to be placed in the specified ranges above.
how to set a cells value into a variable, using .value, then set another cells value equal to that variable without using copy/paste
What I can't figure out is how to see the value of multiple cells to a variable and place them into another range of the same size using .value. It would be nice to free up the clipboard.
I'm looking for an algorithm that does the following:
1. Open one-by-one a number of excel workbooks in a directory and copy their .UsedRange (i.e. all sheet content in each of the workbooks).
2. Paste append one-by-one each of the workbooks .UsedRange of data into a master workbook that is already open (i.e. active workbook).
Note that the source workbooks and target master workbook contain the same format of data. So a simple copy and paste of the .UsedRange is apt.
Basically I need each .UsedRange of an opened workbook to be appended to the data from previously opened workbook in the master workbook already opened.........
I have a spreadsheet that has 5 columns, with the headers:
Code Description Colour Size Price
There are over 500 lines on this spreadsheet.
The Blue headers have all the information filled in, whereas the Red headers do not.
I have a second tab on that spreadsheet with the below information filled in.
Code Description Colour Size Price
Now my problem is that I need to merge the 2 tabs into 1...however....
The codes on tabs are not in the same order, and on the first tab, they are interspersed with merged rows with the category name, whereas the second tab they are just a full list.
I am trying to use WINGDING FOnts on some forms. I am not having full success with them. Sometimes they seem to work, other times not at all, and then sometimes if the code is less that 127. I am programically creating the forms from a worksheet. The code used to create is as follows:
Sub MakeUserForm() Dim TempForm As Object Dim NewButton As MSForms.commandbutton Dim NewLabel As MSForms.Label Dim NewTextBox As MSForms.TextBox Dim NewOptionButton As MSForms.OptionButton Dim NewCheckBox As MSForms.CheckBox Dim x As Integer Dim Line As Integer Dim MyScript(4) As String Dim BC As String 'This is to stop screen flashing while creating form Application.VBE.MainWindow.Visible = False Set TempForm = ThisWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents.Add(3) 'Create the User Form With TempForm..............
I have previously tried to save the whole original workbook with the following ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:UsersPhilDocumentsMy Excel DocumentsRostersIndividual Rosters" & StaffLastName & " " & StaffFirstName & " - Roster commencing " & Format(DateSerial(Range("X11").Value, Range("V11").Value, Range("T11").Value), "dd mmm yyyy") & ".xlsm
but receive a run-time error message:
Run-time error '1004': Microsoft Office Excel cannot access the file
My first request for help is how is the code wrong and how can it be corrected?
Secondly, instead of saving the whole workbook, is it possible to save just a given range of cells as a new workbook, using the format above to give it a personalised filename?
Trying to set up a 12 month rolling sum. However, the only issue with it is that there a re future date cells already in place (august through December of this year). Is there a way to have a formula automatically ignore these by using todays date or something? That was the person using the workbook doesn't have to delete these columns and re-add in the future?
I have a macro that imputs data from an external database and puts it into a temporary worksheet. This data has 3 columns (ID, Date, Amount). I am then making another sheet which has X number of tables (one for each ID), with the years being the column headings, and months being the row headings. ie.
| ID X | +------+------+------+---> | | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Jan | $100 | $250 | $300 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Feb | $200 | $300 | $200 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Mar | $300 | $250 | $100 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Sum | $600 | $800 | $600 | | +------+------+------+--->
| ID Y | +------+------+------+---> | | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Jan | $100 | $250 | $300 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Feb | $200 | $300 | $200 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Mar | $300 | $250 | $100 | +------+------+------+------+---> | Sum | $600 | $800 | $600 | | +------+------+------+--->
Currently I have a few hidden fields for the DSUM Criteria. I start making the tables. And then filling in table based off of the month and year. Doing so I need 3 criteria: >= First Day of the Month <= Last Day of the Month = ID #
The problem is it takes Excel too long to fill in the 3 criteria fields, calculate the result, copy the result, and place it into the correct place on the table. Is there another way to get this data into the correct tables faster? Instead of using DSUM?
I want to create a macro that will find a text string called "Season Average" in the entire workbook and delete a range of cells above it 4 cells longs starting right above the text and then going left.
Example is if "Season Average" is in cell D11, than I want the cells D10, C10, B10 & A10 Deleted and the cells to shift up
This happens throughout the entire workbook and multiple times on each work sheet in different spots not consistently same cells.
I'm looking to see if there is a way to take the decimal place formatting of cell and apply it to other cells.
For example, if someone types in 0.0001 into a source cell, I'd like to take that decimal formatting and apply it to other destination cells. This way when values are typed into those cells it will automatically display 4 places past the decimal, no matter what the value. ie 50 will display 50.0000
Basically, i have a common workbook template that is used by multiple users across the business to request a cost for numerous new products.
Within the template, there is a common section at the top, where specific project information is entered. There is also a table beneath where 1 or many products can be entered, with specific information relating to that product in the same row.
All the submitted requests are uploaded via an email attachment, to a particular sharepoint directory.
What i would like to do in the master workbook is the following:-
1. Open in turn every uploaded workbook within the sharepoint directory and copy the following cells into the master workbook, each in it's own row (or next available), with the data in adjacent cells.... 1st cell to enter data is $B6.
Cells to copy from each sheet:
Common info contained within cells: $DG$2,$N$11,$N$12,$N$19,$N$13,$AO$7,$AO$8,$AO$9,$AO$10,$AO$11,$AO$12,$AO$12,$AO$13,$AO$14,$BO$8,$BO$11,$BO$14
Product specific info: $U37, $AD37, $AH37, $DH37, $C37, $O37
Depending on the number of products requested, we need to repeat (loop?) until it finds the next blank row in the table. I have hidden a blank row in the table, so there will always be one!
All of the common information needs to be included for each product specific entry.
For each file, once the upload has been completed, i would like the file to be moved to another "archive" directory.
I have attached the template for information. The master workbook is still in development so can't share currently.
