Jul 1, 2013I have a spreadsheet, where the corresponding invoice number is located in column I.
All the necessary invoices have been scanned in as pdf's in folder Y:FinanceSalesInvoices.
The question is, can a code be written to say in column Z, that a hyperlink be created to that particular invoice. For example, in cell I2, it would have Invoice1, then in cell Z2, it would have a hyperlink of Y:FinanceSalesInvoicesInvoice1.pdf.

Extract Newest File From Directory
Jul 21, 2008I have an excel spreadsheet that has a list of pathways to different folders (ex. Q:TechnicalY001) in each row. I want a macro that will search each of the folders I list in a range of cells and return the most recent file by the Date in the filename:
Example: Cell A1 contains folder path Q:TechnicalY001
Cell A2 contains folder path Q:TechnicalY002
The macro would return the most recent file in Y001 and dump the filename into cell B1. Then it would return the most recent file in Y002 and dump the filename into B2.
After I have all of the most recent filenames, I want to be able to search each of those files for data in certain cells and then dump that data into the spreadsheet. The cells are always going to be the same in each file.
Copy Most Recent File To Another Directory
Sep 11, 2009I've got this code that will copy data into my worksheet from the most recent .IRP file generated on my C:/ drive. Along with copying the data to my worksheet, I'd like to have a copy of the IRP file copied to a folder on my L:/Drive.
In the code section I've commented out the code that allows the data from the most recent file to be copied to my worksheet. I found code that supposedly will copy a file to a new directory. I want to combine this into my code to allow both to happen. Here's my attempt.
Macro To Erase File On A Directory
Mar 9, 2013The code bellow allows me to save a copy of the invoice by way of doPDF using invoice number as the name of the pdf to be saved.
Code:
Else
Application.ActivePrinter = "doPDF v7 on DOP7:" 'Selects doPDF to genarate PDF file of invoice.
ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= "E:LusaGenerated InvoicesINV" & Range("L17").Text & ".pdf", _
[Code]...
As there is the need to, should a quotation or an invoice be wrong, to change it. In other words I have code to cancel the invoice as bellow.
Code:
Dim sResponse As String
Dim rFound As Range
sResponse = InputBox("Enter record you want to change." & vbNewLine _& "ATTENTION!
This will change the current record number and will erase record data from saved records sheet.")
If sResponse = "" Then --cancelled or OK with no entry: do nothing or add message
Else
Set rFound = Sheet1.Columns("L").Find(What:=sResponse, LookIn:=xlValues,
[Code]...
The code above simply removes a line on sheet1 to which yet another macro retrieved some info from an invoice such as date, invoice, customer and total.
Now I just realized that when I change an invoice, I will be again when finished, creating another pdf file that already exists.
How can I have the second macro here changed so that it will go to ""E:LusaGenerated InvoicesINV" & Range("L17").Text & ".pdf", _" and delete this pdf file?

List All Files In Directory In An Excel File
Apr 2, 2009In my search I found several example similar to what I need, but nothing I could adapt to filt my needs, (at least not wim my limited skills).
Here what I need to do:
I have multilple Excel files in a directory. (M:/Archived PO Responses/Domestic). On a daily basis, these files are processed via VBA, and deleted after processing. What I need to do is, prior to processing and deleting these files, create an ongoing log of the filenames in that directory.
Example:
The macro would open an Excel file named "Processed Orders.xls", which is stored on the network drive "M:". It would then append all of the filenames in the directory mentioned above to a sheet named "Processed Orders" in that workbook, below any filenames that already exist.

Aug 1, 20061. In centain directory I have xls files where name of each file starts from "HR" string, eg. "HG_Control Mike.xls", ora "HR_Control Mark.xls".
2. I have a master xls file where I want to start a macro that will open each of xls "HR" files and copy selected rows to this master xls workbook (need to write this one too).
Problem is that opening of every "HR" files suposed to be protected by password. Users will be adding new xls "HR" files to the directory so I will not be able to change macro everytime new xls is added. So, I need to make a macro that will generate password base on xls "HR" file name and then I will use this password to protect this files and open them by another macro.

Aug 29, 2007I have numerous sub directories, C:/Jobs/12500 – 12599, C:/Jobs/12600 – 12699 etc, within these directories exist spreadsheets with file names like 12675.xls (in this case it’s in the “12600 – 12699” directory). In my open spreadsheet, in cell A1, there is a job number, say 12675. I want to find and open the existing 12675.xls spreadsheet. If the spreadsheet does not exist, a template (Costing.xlt), in a fixed directory, is opened and then saved, in the correct sub directory i.e. C:/Jobs/12600 – 12699/12675.xls. I am now using the following code, but the directory is fixed. How can it be modified to work with variable directories?

Open File In Directory With Part Of Filename As String
Mar 11, 2014I have a Workbook "forecast.xlsx" and several Workbooks which have a individual Number in the Filename (E.g. "3960........xls", "3961.......xls etc.) in the same directory as "forecast.xlsx" + projects"
Now, I would like to browse through "forecast.xlsx" in column H, searching for hyperlinks. In Column H are these Projectnumbers located which are used in the filenames above. Whenever the Cell cointains a hyperlink, following should happen (that far i managed it by myself):
- Store the Cellvalue in a String Variable
- Go to the Directory this.workbook + projects
- browse this folder, searching for a File which contains the stored string in its filename
- open the file
- copy a range
- close file
- This.workbook.Activate
- follow the Hyperlink which has been stored as String before
- paste selection
- continue browsing through column H, looking for the next hyperlink.
I have a VBA which runs bugless, but it copies the wrong range, but to the correct destination.
See the code below:
Sub RESLT_INPUT_ALL()
Dim cell As Object
For Counter = 1 To 1000
Set cell = Worksheets("Projects overview").Cells(Counter, 8)

View 4 Replies View RelatedFile Copy Macro - With Directory Specified In Workbook Cell
Feb 23, 2010I am continuing to struggle with my first attempt at a macro, and wonder if someone would mind taking a look to see where I have gone wrong? All I am trying to do is create file copying tool where the user can define the source and destination directory in workbook cells, and assign the macro to a button to complete the copy of all files from source to destination.
The macros do this:
Source and Location directory defined in Sub Archive1.
These are passed to file copy macro Sub ArchiveScript.
This macro checks for presence of destination directory, ensures that the directory backslash is in place, specfies the variables fn and fn2 to make sure the filecopy command copies all files in the directory, and then carries out the filecopy function itself.
However, I am getting two errors from the code that I can't figure out (I am still very much a beginner!)
- Invalid procedure call or element on fn = dir() at the bottom
- The copy still works, but only seems to copy one file from the source to the destination, and not all of them.
