Update Master Workbook From Second Workbook
Apr 10, 2008
I have a master workbook the needs to be updated from another workbook. I have adapted the following code that I found hidden away in this font of knowledge.
Sub test1()
Dim wb1 As Workbook
Dim wb2 As Workbook
Dim OldLastCell As Range
Dim lookRng As Range
Dim foundRng As Range
Dim iCel As Range
Dim loopRng As Range
If IsWbOpen("Update") Then
Set wb2 = Update
Else
Set wb2 = Workbooks.Open("C:Documents and SettingsCompaq_OwnerDesktopAreaUpdate.xls")
End If
Set wb1 = Workbooks("Original.xls")
With wb2. Sheets("Sheet1")...................

I have a workbook that links out to numerous other workbooks for current data. After one of the supporting workbooks gets up dated, I return to the master workbook.
Here, I need to see the updated results. The only way that I can find a way of updating the master is to close and save it and then re-open.
Is there a way of updating the master workbook using a macro?

I have multiple workbooks ( with unique names) under same folder. Each workbook has "Report-Corn" sheet.
I would like to copy cell "P15" from each (workbook-> report-corn -> P15) and paste to Master.xls workbook -> Sheet 1 one after another which is also located under same folder.

I am working with multiple workbooks with several tabs in each one. I need the forumula to update the "sheet name" from the source workbook even if the destination workbook is closed.
this is a portion of the forumula I am working with:
=SUM(IF(AND([L2_EI_Phase_II_monitoring_workbook.xlsx]Sheet25!$I$4>=182,[L2_EI_Phase_II_monitoring_workbook.xlsx]Sheet25!$I$4=182,
[L2_EI_Phase_II_monitoring_workbook.xlsx]Sheet26!$I$4=182,
[L2_EI_Phase_II_monitoring_workbook.xlsx]Sheet27!$I$4

In order to do the tests, I'm using 2 simplified workbooks (test_copy and test_paste).
What I'd like to be able to do, once I click a button UPLOAD (creating the button isn't the problem), is to go to the first cell from workbook test_copy, check if that code is already on test_paste and if not add it to the bottom of the list, repeating the same cycle for each code on the workbook test_copy.
The orders of the codes might change on both workbooks differently depending on the way the columns are sorted. That is why I believe that for each code in test_copy I need to check the entire column in test_paste to check if the code already exists.
At the end of the routine, on the example below, we would have the codes 2670, 2676 and 2626 added to the end of the list on test_paste.

I have 1150 workbooks with two sheets each. The workbooks are all named with employee names (SNUFFY,JOE.xlsx etc). The sheets in each workbook are for different years. Both sheets in each workbook are set up the same. The only differences are the values in cells. I just made another workbook where column A is a list of all 1150 employee names (SNUFFY,JOE etc). I want column B for each employee to show the values in say sheet 1 cell G1 of that employee's individual workbook, and column C to show the value in sheet 2 cell G1. How do I make that happen?

Is it a good idea to merge xls workbooks in to one master workbook?
I have read online that some say it is ok and nothing will happen and others say it isn't a good idea because macros and formulas will not work right once merge in to one workbook.
So I have many workbooks with 2 - 4 worksheets in them. All have formulas as well as macro's and everything is working fine just as it is. But I would like to have 1 Master workbook with all workbook/worksheets combined in to 1, so that I can stop opening so many workbooks.

I wish to be able to get data from several workbooks (.xls), and gather all the data in one master workbook.
As I said, I've got a number of workbooks with data I wish to copy and merge into one master worksheet. Each workbook contains a sheet called "MILESTONES" (project) in which I want to pick up data. The data ranges from A5:J88, but I think this can be expanded by the users (more rows). There is no guarantee that the users will enter data in all the columns. Columns A and B occur frequently blank, so the users usually starts entering in information in column C (heading = description).
The Master workbook contains of exactly the same headings, except that the columns has been expanded by 1. Column A1 has the heading "Workpack" which is the name of the workbook the information has been gathered from (description is in column D1). This name can be found in a sheet called "REPORT" in all of the workbooks, and I want this to be copied over, row by row so it matches the data. I don't know if it can cause any trouble, but the names are merged through C to J in row 12 in all of the workbooks.
The workbooks (or workpacks) and the master workbook (summary) are placed in the same folder. Let's say C:Project. The workbooks also changes names frequently (each month). Lastly, if there is a way to automatically update the master workbook every time it is opened.

I have spent many hours trying to research and create a code to enable me to create a master workbook with very little success
I have attached the "master workbook"!!!
I have a file C:workjobs
In this folder I have many workbooks all named differently normally with the customers name and a description of work completed ie: Mrs Jones, Bathroom refit, etc and the file is updated with new workbooks all the time as we complete new jobs
I need create a macro that automatically starts when the masterfile is opened that grabs all the information needed from all the individual workbooks and then inputs the totals into the cells in the masterworkbook so I can then analyse the information
The master workbook I have attached is exactly the same layout as the individual workbooks

at the moment I'm trying to consolidate four Workbooks to a Master Workbook.
The four Workbooks I want to merge have the same table structure but except the "Project Number" they have almost different data in their columns.
What I want to do is creating a Master Workbook in which all the Projects are listed once with the information of all four Lists.
While consolidating the data should be checked whether it is already in the Master Workbook or not:
If yes the Macro should copy the to adding data in the existing Project row and there in the correct column.
If not the Macro should create a new row for the Project.

I think this needs a For Each loop, but I am stuck on how to get it accompished. In the folder I will have about 26 workbooks with all different titles, but the beggining is always the same for the workbook and the worksheet (Bldg). There will be only one ws per wb and the wb I am using to collect all of the worksheets is Final.xls. The code attached works fine, but the only way right now I know how to capture the next wb/ws is with a call.

Using a Command button into my Master file, I'm looking for a code that give me an option to select an existing file that will have a variable name & path, open it and then copy all worksheets contained within it, into my Master workbook. Then close the selected file on completion.
Not sure if it's important but some of the copied worksheet names will contain copies. e.g. Apples, Apples (2), Pears, Pears (2). etc.

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 have 600+ variations of the same workbook. Contained within each workbook is a worksheet, from which I need to copy and paste a range of cells into one "master" workbook. For example, in workbook 1 I need to copy rows 2:5 and paste that into the master workbook in cells 2:5. Then I need to open workbook 2, copy rows 2:5 and paste them into the master workbook starting at row 6. I have fumbled my way through everything except the pasting part into the Master workbook.

At our small firm, each staff member keeps a small excel spread sheet on the network that contains their "work in progress." This spreadsheet is roughly six columns wide and roughly twenty lines long.
What I am attempting to do is have one "master" spreadsheet with a tab for each staff member that links their "work in progress" so that partners and managers can easily see how much work each of the fifteen or so staff members have.
I can create fifteen different tabs and fifteen different files on the network and link =[Staff1.xlsx]Sheet1!$A$1:$G$25 =[Staff2.xlsx]Sheet1!$A$1:$G$25 =[Staff3.xlsx]Sheet1!$A$1:$G$25 and so on.
If I make a change to the layout of the work in progress sheet, I have to delete and copy the file fifteen times, then go back through and re-link fifteen tabs to fifteen workbooks in order to keep it uniform.

I used vlookup function in cell C3 to find ID of employees in Sheet 1 in source workbook and then, I imported the Sheet 1 in master workbook.
The vlookup didn't work in master workbook. The cell C3 in sheet 1 that I imported is blank.
The original got the ID in cell C3, then I don't see the value in cell C3 in master workbook.

I have a master workbook with which I can produce slaves from but I am looking at keeping certain cells protected to stop deletion (dates etc). What I require is for the top 5 rows to be protected on each of the 4 week sheets where the dates etc are. I had played with protecting all the sheets and with unprotect then protect on the master but it did not carry over to the newly created slave, could someone point me in the right direction . SOLVED: The code is not pretty but functional.

is to have a folder where I drop multiple workbooks from different stores. There can be 1 or more workbooks at any given time in that folder. Each workbook is a different size as far as the information inside. Next I need to transfer certain columns to the Master Workbook and also have the store location added to the Master workbook (File Name). I have highlighted the store information that needs to be merged to the master, Store 1, Store 2. For reference I have attached a copy of the Main Folder which is on my desktop C:Documents and SettingsDesktopInventory.

I'm unsure how to adapt the code to suit my needs.
I have an Excel workbook that is created a few times a month from a template. When I update it I run a macro that saves a values only copy with the current date. I'd like to copy non-blank rows (from row 8 down) into the first empty row in a master workbook that is saved on a network drive. The path to the master workbook is "B:8MPBGTrade Pre-AdviceBG Trade Confirm Master.xls"

I have a spread sheet with tabs that are for each week of the year. Each tab shows the date on top and times (broken into 30 minute intervals) on the side; the inside has information like an event on the inside.
My goal is to keep that information there and to have a "master sheet" that holds all this information in a list format so I can filter out some information.

I have two workbooks: master and student. I have one spreadsheet in each workbook. Both workbooks contains data in the same range.
master.xls data = B1:B10 (values are integers)
student.xls data = B1:B10 (values are integers)
I want to know how to update(add) the values in master.xls with the values in a closed workbook(student.xls). Basically if master("B3") = 5 and student("B3") = 1, it will update the value in master("B3") = 6.

I have an excel file as attached. I have two departments Digital and Industrial. Under this I have done a drop down option for different quarter for different projects.
When I open my excel file I just want to see the Quarter column under Digital but when I double click on Digital all other columns appear.
Second this is it possible to create a master filter or sorting for Quarter above the table so that if I select Q1 in it it will displays all the project and corresponding values in both Digital and Industrial.

I have several hundred workbooks which are linked to a master workbook from where the workbooks draw their information. Now I would like to break all the links in all of the several hundred workbooks to this master workbook and retain the information. Is this possible without having to open each workbook individually and break the links via the 'edit links' option?
