Unzip File Automatically Without Search?
Aug 8, 2014
I have a macro that saves zip files automatically from outlook every day and saves over those zip files (which I want). But now I need to unzip those files and save their csv files in a different folder. I will be saving over the same csv files everyday.
(I have 5 zip files saved and named and each file contains just 1 csv file)
I have had a look at Ron de Bruin's code but he requires you to open the and search for the zip file. I would like this to unzip and save automatically without having to use "Application.Getopen".

I'm trying to automate unzipping many .gz files on a monthly basis. Previously I used a macro a coworker wrote to do the unzipping using winzip (think he may have used some code snippets from this forum for it - seems like several sites have similar code shown in different postings). But now my office has switched over to pkware's SecureZIP, I can no longer use winzip, and my coworker has moved on. Can I manipulate that old code to work with SecureZIP somehow?

I've struggled to find the code to unzip files using VBA but I finally found it and it works (using Shell).
The problem is that I want to unzip all zip files in a folder but my zip files contain 3 files:
1 csv file that I want to keep and 1 xml and 1 txt file that I want to delete.
I can't just unzip everything and deal with the txt and xml later because the xml and txt files all have the same name. So if I don't do anything, I have a series of overwriting messages prompting me to click yes or no. So what I want is either to delete xml and txt one by one after they are created or get rid of the overwriting prompt. I've tried to put a kill or delete file just after the unzip command but it doesn't work - it's telling me that the txt file doesn't exist (should I add some sort of refreshing command ?) and I couldn't find anything on google about overwriting text or xml files.

Does anyone have a way to make Excel Zip and/or Unzip Files using only Windows Native Functionality?
I know I can use command line zip utilities like Winzip or Winrar. But I'm trying to make some scripts that will be shared among other users, and would like to NOT require users to install extra software to make it work.
I know windows has the built in capability to zip unzip files through the windows GUI, so there must be a way to do it with command lines from VBA code...
P.S. At the moment I am mostly concerned with UNzipping.

I am trying to automatically reference the contents of another file into my main file. Basically I have one schedule that I've automatically generated in AutoCAD, and another formatted template. The AutoCAD schedule is completely unformated.
I want to include a link to the AutoCAD scheule (a *.CSV file) on my main spreadsheet and have the autoCAD schedule populate my template. I've done some reading, primarily on here, and I think I need to use either the INDIRECT() or the INDEX() function.
I can get INDIRECT() to work, but it's fairly repetitive (not overly important, but still.....). More importantly, though, the schedule file has to be open, which I would like to avoid if possible. INDEX(), I just can't figure out how to work!

I presently have a macro that, when run, takes to conents of C4 and C6 and saves a new version of the file being worked on into a folder on my desktop. I love the macro with the exception of one part: I don't want to be prompted to overwrite the file if it already exists. How can I change this macro so that, when pressed, it overwrites the file without prompting the user and waiting for their answer?
Here is the current

I am trying to find a way in which a used can enter text into a cell (effectively the search cell) and then that text is compared to text in 3 or so columns, if the text matchs any part of the cells in the those columns then the spreadsheet should filter out the rows that dont have a match and only leave rows that have a match.
Its like having a spreadsheet with a list of part an user can put in 55 or bolt in the cell at the top and the list would only then show all the rows that have 55 or bolt or whatever text in the table below?

I have an excel book open called MIC and my code has a certain cell activated, and has a string stored in memory. What I need to do is search for that string in another Excel file (MCMAP) and once I find it select the entry directly to the left of it and then use whatever value that is to fill in the active box on the MIC file.
What I'm doing is mapping a abbreviation to it's full name which is stored in a file called MCMAP.
My main problem is how do I search for this string in another file? It will be somewhere in the "B" column and then get the info from the cell directly to the left of it (somewhere in column "A").

I need to create a search element in Excel. What I would like is to be able to enter a file or part file name into a cell and then push a button and the file is found and opened for me. How would I go about doing this. The files searched for would all be in the same folder so the whole hard drive would not have to be searched

I need to search for values from my excel spreadsheet row A ('Picture #') in a folder on my C:, with a match from the spreadsheet in the file name of the folder I am searching, I need the matching file copied down to a different file. Also, I would like it to keep a record of error searches. So I separate tab on the spreadsheet being searched from to show which of the values from row A were not found.

I have created a file which generates a file name from information entered in certain cells
Code:
Sub SaveAsExample() On Error GoTo Err1:
Dim FName As String
Dim FPath As String
FPath = "O:PHC BomsDropbox - Stage & Gate"
FName = Sheets("Control Sheet").Range("B1").Text & " " & Sheets("Control Sheet").Range("B2").Text
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=FPath & "" & FName
Err1:
Exit Sub
End Sub
Control sheet B1 = SG999
Control sheet B2 = Product Description
EG - SG999 Prod Description.xlsm
Now here's the problem -
Very occasionally some users may edit the Prod Description & then need to re-save
So i need to create some code which looks for an element of the current file name in a Directory (O:PHC BomsDropbox - Stage & Gate) EG "SG999" (Which could be 5 or 6 characters in length (if we go over 1000)
Delete this file, replaces it with the new file with the edited information.

The mini project I've been working on does pretty much what I want it to do. It takes a list of script names and by providig it with the scripts folder/server and database the scripts are run and the log files are dumped in a newly created folder named logs.
Now that I have established how to check for the existence of a folder and creating new folders in Excel VBA, the next step is to check for the existence of a particular text file and if it exists, search the contents of that file for a specific word or sentence.
I need to know which objects and methods provide such capability [if any]

I'm simply trying to search a directory for .xls files and count them. I have previously used the following code successfully to do so, but for some reason it has recently stopped working. Debugging shows .FileSearch.Count() = 0 after every search. I have atleast half a dozen .xls files in the "Reports" folder relative to the active workbook.
strReportDirectory = ActiveWorkbook.Path & "Reports"
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.LookIn = strReportDirectory
.SearchSubFolders = False
.Filename = "*.xls"
.Execute
'loop through each workbook in the directory
