Transferring Information From A Seperate File.
Dec 15, 2009
I'll get straight to the point. I have a file with an (.ASC) extension that has information that I need in my workbook. The first problem is that in the .ASC file ...
a) there are french characters that don't translate into excel when I open it up
b) the date format is dd/mm/yy and excel doesn't seem to like this and only converts it as mm/dd/yy for those it can and the rest it leaves as text.
When I manual open the file problem b) disappears but if I use a macro problem b) pops up.
Right now I'm using this code to open the file

I need to be able to pull information from a "master database" into seperate worksheets. Here is my problem. When I use a vlookup and my identifer is say "office property" then the vlookup will only pull the first "office property" and not retrieve any of the remaining "office property" rows.

I've got a bit of a quandary here that my novice programming skills can't seem to solve.
Here is the scenario. I work for a photographic library. We have a spreadsheet that contains 5 or so columns, and a couple of thousand rows. Essentially each row contains an imagine code (the number we use to file away the imagine, ie. US_NY_NYC_1 ) in the first cell, and the image information in the following cells (ie metadata, keywords, photographer, date, etc).
so a typical row would look as follows:
Filename | Keywords | Photographer | Metadata | Location |
all the keyword, photographer, metadata, and location information can only be tied to the one image code whose cell begins the row.
Now, here is my dilemma. This sheet (lets call it the master sheet) contains all the images we have in a given batch. However, when a client orders images, we will send them most images in that batch, but not all, and we may send a few additional. So I have a separate sheet that contains only those image codes that the client requested. What I need to do is essentially take a code from the second sheet, find that same code in the master sheet, and copy over all the cells associated with that code's row. If the number does not exist in the master sheet, simply leave that row with only the code in the first cell, and the rest blank, and move on.
so for example, in my second sheet lets say I have the following A_B_C . I would like for excel to find that same code in the master sheet, and then copy over the metadata, photographer, date, etc, associated with that code, and paste it into the second sheet, so that that row in the second sheet now looks identical to the row with the same image code in the master sheet . If A_B_C does not exist in the master spreadsheet, then I would like excel to simply leave that code in its own row, leave the rest of the row blank, and move on to the next code.

I would like to transfer the data in my Excel Sheet to a txt file while still keeping the widths the same as they were in the Excel Sheet.
A portion of what I want to convert is in the the attached Excel File.
The txt file is what I would like it to be converted to.
When I cut and paste, it adds a tab space between each column which I dont want.

I have a few hundred work orders done in Excel. Each spread sheet is a seperate file but all are identical in structure (basic order form). I need to change the value in the same cell on all the forms (manager's name needs to be changed on all our forms).
Question: How do I do this without having to open and edit all five thousand forms?

Is there a way to do this?
a) run a code that will create a pop-up window with the question, "Can you show me where the CODEMAP.txt" file is?"
b) then the user will locate the file in a pop-up window and be able to click/select the file and there are "ok" and "cancel" buttons.
c) once the "codemap.txt" file is selected, the vba code will automatically change this file to "codemap.csv" so that it will open in excel (temporarily). This file can be placed anyway, even on the desktop because it won't be needed later. This is only temporary.
d) Then on the "codemap.csv" file, everything from sheet 1, cell b1 to cell b700 are copied and pasted to sheet two of this macro
The codemap.csv file can then be deleted

I would like to automatically update a 'yearly' database file with info from a file that is changed on a daily basis.
The daily file that i use has info like date, truck number, delivery stops, weight.
the database file has the similar headings.
at the end of each day this daily file is saved. I would like to have the info that is entered into the daily file automatically plugged into the yearly database file into the next available group of cells with respect to the salesperson.
This is kind of a generalization but i'm hoping to just get pointed in the right direction. If something like this involves vba then it will be beyond my ability and i'll have to do it manually, which is fine

I was wondering if it is possible to protect a macro to be used only if a *.txt (for example) file wit some certain text is available. like a key to run hidden in a text. The file is situated in a company network, and i want to protect it from taking the file out of the company. I can do it to check for presence of a file - if the file is not available - the macro exits. but if someone break the password that is protecting the code will see the blocking point immediately. this is why i want to use a key....

My company use a program called Bartender which is a barcode printing program. Bartender has the ability to extract information from an Excel sheet which is really useful and prevents repetetive keying in of information. We have found that if you simply print the Excel sheet when Bartender next uses the file it says it is corrupt and simply copying the data into a new spreadsheet and resaving it as the same name does not resolve this issue.

I need building a formula to pull information from a database file. The purpose is to try to interpret the data so that I can analyze a time period along with it's content. I don't know how best to explain it. Basically I have a table and I want it to pull information based on 3 criteria: time, type, and total. I would like for the formula to identify a time frame, then identify a type, and then take the totals and add them together.
Time / Type / Total
11:31 /1 / 4
11:43 / 1 / 6
12:04 / 2 / 1
12:31 / 1 / 3
Time / Type / Total
11:30 - 12:00 / 1 / 10
12:00 - 12:30 / 1 / 3
The top is the database and the bottom is basically what I want to happen on the other table. Pretend the / and dividers for each column.

What I have is a master file that needs to pull info from other sources (a simple copy and paste)
those files are called Inventory_xxxx.xlsm . Inside the master file, there are cells with the number of the inventory.
What i need is a way to tell excel to check what number is in the cell, open the files with that number, get the info from the files and paste it back in the master file... and the part that i consider the trickiest, a way to loop it.
For example, lets say i have 2248 in cell A10, it should open Inventory_2248.xlsm copy the contents from cell N4, O4, P4, Q4, R4 and S4(Inventory File) into N10,R10,S10,T10 and U10 (Master file) respectively then in A11, there could be a 2250 so it should open the 2250 file get the info, paste it and so on.....
Now I don't even know if this is do-able or just impossible, been fiddling with various codes to no avail.

Herewith I attached a sample excel file.
Structure file which i attached herewith include all the cost center details. normally it is a big file contain more than 1000 cost center details. Structure File.xlsx If i want a cost center name for some cost center code, i have to open this file and find a specific name.

If I type =CC("D232") I need to print cost center name for D232.
But the problem is i don't want to open the structure file, without open that file, when i type this function i need a result.

I'm a relatively competent VBA user to a macro recorder and basic editing of custom code level but fall short with writing custom code and don't have much used or proven code I can copy from.
Problem: I'd like to automate a process whereby consolidating certain information within many data files (possibly up to 500) into a single tab within a master file.
At the moment there are only a few data files which are manually consolidated by way of manual links but going forward it will increase significantly, hence the need to automate.
I need to consolidate the following 5 cells from each data file A1, A2, A5, A7, A8 (vertical) into a single row within the master file across 5 columns (horizontal), i.e. each data file will populate 1 row in the master file, one below the other. If there are 500 data files there will be 500 rows of data in the master file.
The data files will be saved in a central location on our server and the master file will sit outside this folder, possibly in a subfolder.
Something which would be handy is a link in the master file to each data file, i.e. if I click on a data row in the master file it would jump to the source data file.

I have a macro that transfers (copy/paste) information from one master file to several other individual files. The macro works, but I would like
to enhance it by have it spit out errors in the process as follows: if cell A42 on file VP1.xls is not equal to Cell C35 on file Masterfile.xls then make cell E2 ERROR and fomat E2 bold-red, otherwise do nothing. The macro should continue regardless, I just want it to spot errors.
I think this is pretty simple is just a matter of inserting an IF formula in the macro which is something i don't know how to do yet.

Basically I am trying to create a worksheet in which everytime I input information into Sheet 1, it is copied into Sheet 2. I want to have each entry in succession on Sheet 2 such that my first entry would be on Row 2, second on Row 3, third on Row 4, etc. However, everytime I put something new in Sheet 1, it just overrides the information in Sheet 2.
Basically I type in ticket sales in sheet 1, it calculates the prices and keeps a transaction log in sheet 2. But everytime I do a new ticket sale, it just overwrites the previous transaction witht he new transaction information. I've pasted my VBA below:
Sheet 1 VBA:
Code:
Option Explicit
'Form level variables - used in more than one event
Dim intAdult As Integer
Dim intStudentSenior As Integer
Dim intBalcony As Integer
Dim intChild As Integer
Dim sngAmountDue As Single
[Code] .......
Sheet 2 code:
Private Sub cmdSummary_Click()
'Declare Variables
Dim intCount As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim intAdult As Integer
Dim intStudentSenior As Integer
[Code] ......

In VBA Excel transferring data from Excel to Access.
I want to know how to increment the [ID] for each value of the range. [ID] is the Primary Key.
I have tried "NULL".
I have tried adding "n=n+1" after the "for each" and "thisSQL = "INSERT INTO... VALUES (" & n & ",..."
VB:
For Each value In Range("D5:D" & Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row)
accDateSub = Cells(value.Row, 1)
accDescSub = Cells(value.Row, 2)
accSub = Cells(value.Row, 3)
thisSQL = "INSERT INTO [Table1] ([ID], [Date], [Desc], [Data]) VALUES ("[U]What goes here?[/U] ", #" & Format(CDate(accDate), "MM/DD/YY") & "#, '" & accDesc & "', " & accData & ");"
conn.Execute CommandText:=thisSQL

I'm trying to print score cards from the scores sheet (two different worksheet pages). Some score cards (each score card is one page) will only have 3 players and some will have up to 5 players so I can't just go down the list and use a formula to transfer data line by line. I will set the score sheet up I just all of hole 1 players to be printed on a card and so on with hole 2-18 also I need First and Last names on the cards and possibly score total by the name.

Itransferring data across two work books I have.
Every month I get sent sales figures of products, from now I have been typing in every sales figure which is long and boring. So I was wondering whether there is a way to make excel match the products on each workbook (mine and the one I get sent) seeing as there is a product number on both workbooks and then have excel automatically fill in the field I type manually which are quantity and value. So excel would see on the one workbook that product X has sold 10 units with 1000 value and then would go across to my workbook and fill that in the area I need on mine matching from the product code?
