Use ADO To Copy Data From Closed Book To Active Sheet
Mar 6, 2012
I have managed to use ADO to copy data from a closed book to my active sheet. Problem : it copies only the text, and not the dates or figures...
Code:
Sub TestReadDataFromWorkbook()
' fills data from a closed workbook in at the active cell.
GetDataFromClosedWorkbook "H:P&LYE TempDiv P&LP&L Report 020312.xls", "A1:Z1000", Range("A1"), False
End Sub
Code:
Sub GetDataFromClosedWorkbook(SourceFile As String, SourceRange As String, _
TargetRange As Range, IncludeFieldNames As Boolean)
'GetDataFromClosedWorkbook "C:FolderNameWorkbookName.xls", "A1:B21", ActiveCell, False
'GetDataFromClosedWorkbook "C:FolderNameWorkbookName.xls", "MyDataRange", Range("B3"), True
I am currently using a macro to copy a sheet from a closed workbook in to my current workbook. However this copying is based on the sheet name. At present when I run the following code
I have some vba that opens a closed workbook, copies data from a named range and then pastes it to the active workbook.
However, what is happening is that the closed workbook is opened and only part of the data is pasted. What I would prefer to happen is this:
Open the closed workbook-->copy the named range-->paste(append) to next empty cell in column B.
Heres the code that I have got.
Sub Workbook_test()Dim wb As Workbook Application.ScreenUpdating = False ' turn off the screen updating Set wb = Workbooks.Open("G:WAREHOUSEPlanningSmartNew Training Plan raining plan.xls", True, True)
I have a number of files in a directory, with data in columns A:E, and variable rows deep (200-300) that I’d like to copy to the active workbook. I’d like to have a file window open to the same set directory (ie. “CArchives” and be able to select any file in that directory to copy.
Note: There are 2 separate ranges to copy, which must be done separately because the headings are to be moved 2 columns over - also, there is data in beteen the headings and main data in the active workbook.
Range 1: Two headings cells in A1:B1 get transposed to C1:D1. Range 2: the files’ data starts at A4 but gets inserted starting at cell A6 of the active workbook.
I have a macro code which gets the file list from a folder i specify and puts it in to an excel sheet as a column. I have then made a drop down list from this so the user can select the file they want.
From this file i wish to copy the data on a sheet that i specify. For example the sheet "dump" from file FR7_19.11.2009.xls (which will be a closed workbook) and paste its content in to the sheet "dump" in Summary.xls
I have a macro which opens up the closed workbook FR7_19.11.2009.xls and copies the sheet "dump" and then creates a new sheet of the same name and content in my current workbook (Summary.xls). However when i wish to select a different file to load in to Summary.xls "dump" the formulas i have been calculating information from this sheet all come up with #!Ref errors. I know this is because the macro i use deletes the old dump sheet before re adding a new one containing new data.
I am therefore looking for a macro which will simply just copy and paste the data from any file i select in to a sheet named "dump" as the data is always set out the same in every file but the values are different. I assume this will then mean that any formulas i use relating to this "dump" sheet in Summary.xls will work because the sheet is no longer being deleted and re-added the data within it has just simply been copied over.
This is the error i get by doing> edit> move or copy sheet
A formula or sheet you want to move or copy contains the name 'HTML', which already exists on the detination worksheet. Do you want to use this version of the name?
I want to do is copy a sheet into the same book. If I click yes, two more errors pop up.
I have designed a spreadsheet that updates automatically and shows the company's perfomance on several sheets.
To add to the use of the sheet I would like to offer the user a preference set up. So they choose the sheet it opens on for example.
I am happy with how to do all the above except for the fact that the sheet is required to be available to all staff! so only one employee can have it open in read/write everyone else will eb read only!
I was thinking the only way around this would be to have a second sheet that saves their environ user name and preferences.
That would require using the sheet closed though would it not?
Is there a way to run a macro automaticly on a closed work book every Friday ? I've found ways of doing this using on-open event but It made me wonder if this was possible.
I have one sheet for each day of the month with a table that has Employee Name, Reason, and Expected Return. I need to copy each line into the monthly sheet, but each day may have varying number of rows. Needless to say I would like to do this without copying lots of blank lines into my consolidated sheet.
I have an excel file which I use when I book keep journals in work. Each time I come across a new piece of bookkeeping I add to the file, name the sheet and index it. (I've attached a loose example for illustration) so the bookkeeping template.xls gets bigger every day.
Currently, when I book keep on a particular day, I open the template.xls workbook;
draft my journals;
and then manually copy the worksheets I have completed during the day from the template.xls workbook and paste the sheets into a new book and save the days bookkeeping as the current date.
With the file I have attached can someone show me how to write a macro and apply it to each of the buttons on the various work sheet tabs (each button will run the same macro).
Upon clicking a button, I would like the macro to;
Copy the active sheet into a new book and save the file as the current date.
Each subsequent click of a button the macro will check if the .xls file exists for the current date, if it does, then it will just copy the active worksheet to the file that has already been created.
In the new file which is saved as the current date, I need to remove the macro button and the hyperlink that reads back to index.
I have had some helpful macro's provided from another forum, however, the other forum does not appear to enable users to upload files, so I can't quite convey what it is I am trying to achieve.
so to start off im not able to attach things due to security reasons, what i need is either 1 of 2 macros. if its possible, both are related. one possible is as follows: i need it to go through a certain column (say I for example) and look at the information in it, this information can vary from peoples names along with dates and other stuff, i want it to look through these and if anything has a date today and prior i need the cell to be highlighted. problem is sometimes it might have 2 dates, or no dates. it should have todays date, their name, other information, and future date of something. but not everyone does, this is the macro i dont think that can exists.
2nd macro possibility the other macro uses the first sheet, AFTER been highlighted, normally by hand, and takes it to another workbook and puts in in certain spots. so the first sheet has names of everyone in column K. what i need is it to look at column I and if its highlighted take entire row to other book, and put into sheet under the person name in their tab. the second book has a tab for each person (at this time 18 tabs) which can fluxuate, and each tab is the persons first and last name, without spaces. since when i put sums on main page it didnt want to work with the spaces i had to omit them. again im not sure this is possible.
I have a code in which we can split the data using column values into new and same sheet also. I want to modify this accordingly to my need but i am new in VBA so can't modify this. i want 2 changes in this macro:
1. I want to set a value (Like:"Resolved"," In Process" ) in the macro to extract the data related to the value only. Means, when i run this macro it will extract the data only for "Resolved" status. I have to create two macros for each defined status.
2. After splitting, it will ask me to save the new workbook location.
3. Save it.
The codes i m having are :
First code to make directories:
Code: Public Type BROWSEINFO hOwner As Long pidlRoot As Long pszDisplayName As String lpszTitle As String ulFlags As Long lpfn As Long
Got an issue that I can only seem to do with things like the program Hotkey and making physical macros. I'm sure it is easy but I'm lost.
I have data in one book that looks like this (Call it Book1)
Date: Service ProviderReason for callCRM SR #DM SR #WO #Device #Serial #Issue15/02/2010DATE: 03/02/10 TIME: 11:29 BUS: 1234AO ISSUE DETAILS: Issue with Console
and data in another book that looks like this (Call it Book2)
DeviceSerial NumberNameTerminal PositionTerminal Group Location DescriptionTerminal IDDescription Service Provider 104012343030123456ConsoleDriver Console1234AO90401234Service Provider Name found Here
I need to find the BUS: 1234AO from the cell in Book1 then look that Bus up in Book2 and then from Book2 copy the Device, Serial Number, and Service Provider into the cells into Book1 and repeat this infintely often. The problem I have is the the bus can have 1 Console and 1-5 Readers and I need to find that data also. So for example I need to find BUS 1234AO and get the Console details and past that into one issue and the next issue will have the same bus number 1234AO but I need the details for Reader2 (that detail is in the Name field as shown above.) The issue details will always have the Console text and Reader# text in it.
The problem I have is that the Reason for call cell has ALT-ENTER characters in it and the details are not always in the same spot but the details are almost always in the format ####AO (four numbers and the letters AO)
I've been using the following code to bring in individual cell values from one closed workbook to an active one. I would like to modify this is possible to bring in multiple cells at once and also pull them into a different worksheet in the active workbook. Basically, my command button is on Sheet1 but I'd like the data to pull into a cell on Sheet2.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() With Range("Q9") .Formula = "='C:Users[Workbook Name.xlsm]Worksheet Name'! N27" .Value = .Value End With
I need to get this macro to process the cells for every worksheet in a book rather than just the active one
Public Sub test() Dim Lr As Long, i As Long, x As Range, _ v1 As String, v2 As String, v3 As String Set x = ActiveSheet.Cells.Find("*", searchdirection:=xlPrevious) If x Is Nothing Then Exit Sub Lr = x.Row Application.ScreenUpdating = False For i = Lr To 1 Step -1 v1 = Cells(i, 2) v2 = Mid(Cells(i, 3), 1, 1) v3 = Cells(i, 4) If v1 "OP00" Or v2 "L" Or v3 "CC" Then Cells(i, 1).EntireRow.Delete Next Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
I'm trying to create a copy of the active sheet and then rename the new copied sheet to what's in cell O4, which is a formula (see below) and then paste value cell O4 in B3 of the copied sheet. However, when I run this macro it doesn't seem to like the second line where I am renaming the sheet (run time error '1004').
"O4" =DATE(YEAR($B$3),MONTH($B$3)+1,DAY($B$3))
Sub NewMonth()
ActiveSheet.Copy Before:=Sheets(Sheets.Count) ActiveSheet.Name = Range("O4").Value ActiveSheet.Range("O4").Copy ActiveSheet.Range("B3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues End Sub
I would like a macro that will go to a fixed sheet, copy the format, go back to the previous sheet and paste the format. My problems arise going back to the previously activated sheet rather than just a fixed sheet.
Is there code that will take certain data from one Excel sheet to another named file in a different place on the network? Example Copy cell aa47 from "Recent Faxes.xls" that sits in "correspondence" folder. Then paste into cell B25 "Current Documentation.xls" in the "Sales Contacts" folder
I have a workbook that I want to copy two separate ranges from and then post to two different sheets. Range one on the active sheet from A4:K(no of rows will vary) to sheet Savoury Year, and range two A64:K(no of rows will vary) to Site Services Year. When pasting I want to paste it to the next empty row down.

I want DELETE the rows that contains 0 (zero or -) in column F (SALDO BRUTO), when I click the Button (Clear). And How I can copy from this sheet to a new sheet in this workbook, but the names of new sheet automatic rename to next date or 2, and next when I click the Button "Copy to New Sheet".
I am wanting to create a macro for excel that when run it it will copy the active worksheet and worksheet named "Timesheet" and copy them to a new Excel workbook named the same as the original file + "JobBrief".
I want to copy data from the current sheet, and past it in the "montly" sheet.
'i and j were defined above, with a Case statement Range(" Ai:Cj").Select Selection.Copy Sheets("monthly").Select ' I want the upper left cell of the pasted area to be A11 Range("A11").Select ActiveSheet.Paste
I get an error saying that I should select one cell and then paste. But I thought that that is what I did...
Attached is my code, pay attention to the bold part. I want the sourceSheet to be copied as a sheet and pasted in the targetSheet (the Sheet2 of "NewBook") but I want it pasted asvalues. Here is the specific part which needs to be looked at...and below is the full code.
VB: Set sourceBook = Application.Workbooks.Open(sourceFilename) Set sourceSheet = sourceBook.Sheets("Current") Set targetSheet = NewBook.Sheets("Sheet2")
I am looking for vba code to copy data from closed workbook. I searched below VBA code on google , but it copies all row from closed workbook. I need small modification in it. I want to copy only I,A,B,C,N,O,R,P,Q column from closed workbook to A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I column of active workbook respectively.
how do i copy the data from cell C1 in the active workbook "name1.xls" to cell D10 in the closed workbook "name2.xls" in "sheet1" without opening the closed workbook?
I want to add a button to my excel workbook that when pressed allows the user to browse to an excel file, once selected, the macro then looks for a specific sheet with a specific name and then copies some data (not entire sheet) into a sheet in the doc where the button was pressed.
I have 7 workbooks I would like to copy data from. The data in question is a sheet called "Accident Book" in each of the 7 workbooks.
I know how to copy the data, but how do I reference these 7 closed workbooks ? They are all in the same directory, but these are other files in there that I dont need, so I dont just want to point to the directory.
I have this code from Nimrod but can't get it working.
Sub GetValuesFromAClosedWorkbook(fPath As String, fName As String, sName, cellRange As String) With ActiveSheet.Range("A65536").End(xlUp) .FormulaArray = "='" & "\Bls36dc10WorkH&S" & "[" & Central 2004.xls & "]" _ & "Accident Book" & "'!" & range("A6") .Value = .Value End With End Sub
I actually want to copy data from A6:N6 down to the last row entry, then paste this into the next available row in the activesheet. I need to do this from 7 different workbooks.
