Use Userform Collected Data To Open A File
Oct 29, 2009
Hi, I'm trying to use a userform to open a previously saved file to avoid having the users dig through the folder and maybe work on the wrong file.
I have a file I have created to test if the code works, but the macro keeps giving me the reponse I set in case it doesn't find the file.
The data for Account (Account1 and Subaccount1) is coming from a text box, as well as for category (Category1). The data for Company is an optionbutton frame with 4 options for the user to select from.

I'm trying to set up a relatively simple UserForm, which will collect the name of a project from a ListBox, a project update which will simply be text entered into a TextBox, and a estimated completion percentage (factor of 10, 10/20/30% and so on) which will come from another ListBox.
I've managed to get many of the basics working, for example an OK button and a CANCEL button, but there are a few bits that I'm still finding rather tricky.
I have the selected date in the percentage listbox going back into my chosen place in the spreadsheet quite happily, but I can't get it to work for the project name listbox (I think it's because the options come from rowsource and weren't entered manually like the other one). I'll paste my code at the end so you can all see how I've done it (and have a laugh)!
I have also just about managed to get the data to go to the right place in the spreadsheet. I want the data to appear in columns, column 1 for the project name, project update in 2 and percentage complete in 3. I have this working, but it for any reason one cell becomes blank, my code uses that cell, and that could cause entries to become mixed up. I want the UserForm to enter data on the first entirely empty row.
Here's my code:
VB:
Private Sub Cancel_Click()
Unload ProjectUpdate
End Sub
Private Sub Clear_Click()
Call UserForm_Initialize
End Sub

Can you suspend a userform after open an excel file from the userform? I have a userform that allows the opening of excel files (one at a time), but the user has to close the userform to access the excel file. Can I work with the file while the userform is still active?

I have a Userform in Excel.
My requirement, is whenever I open the Excel file, it should open the userform and should not show the excel file at all. And the form is closed, the excel file should be saved and closed.
Also, I need the minimize button on the form and in the taskbar, it should not display the Excel file, it should display only the Userform.

I am looking for a simple formula that would look at column A2-A100 and calculate the whole number for the number of the week I am on. So in cell K22, I would like it to add up the A column and spit out a number 4, then on Monday when I add a new record I would like it to automatically update to a 5; indicating the 5th week I have been tracking the data. This number is needed to calculate the average amount in a work week accurately and automatically in cells K20 & K21. New weeks start on Monday and end on Friday. No data will ever have a date of a Saturday or Sunday. I have colored the cells currently to indicate what the number should be. There is 4 alternating colors now. The color coding is just for reference and will not be used going forward. Data will be entered weekly indefinately.

I have a cell that is pulling data from a separate file, no problem there. However, I want the name of one of the folders within that path to change monthly (eg. by monthly name). How can I make a file path incorporate a cell link within a filepath (eg. instead of it saying 'Aug 06' I want it to refer to cell A1 which reads 'Aug 06').

I created a new workbook that contains a list of additional design requirements than our old checklist. These requirements are answered by placing a 1, 0 or .5 in the cell next to the requirement (1 = yes, 0 = no and .5 for half credit). I can't simply go to the old workbook/worksheet and copy the results into the new workbook/worksheet as the rows of requirements don't match up since some requirmements have been deleted and new ones added between the old and new checklists.
I created a command button in the new checklist and what I want it to do is:
- open a dialog box that lets me select the old checklist file (these are all excel files, but with different names).
- go the the proper worksheet in the old file (DFT Checklist) and copy a column of results from the old checklist ("DFT Checklist" worksheet) and paste them into the proper cells of the new checklist ("DFT Checklist" worksheet).
- The macro would know (i'll have to tell it) which requirements and cells are still valid answers between the old checklist and the new one. It would disregard requirements that are no longer in the new checklist.
- Once complete, it would close the old checklist without saving.

I want to create a standard macro that will copy values from a Master workbook to the current, active workbook I have open. The problem I have run into is when I record a macro it also records the name of the active workbook I'm copying data into and I would like it so when I bring up a workbook I just run the macro and it copies the values in. I'll be doing 8 different macros that each copy different values from the Master spreadsheet

I am trying to open set of excel files to fetch data starting from a master excel file where the links are given using a loop. Some of files given as links are either absent or the link is wrong.
* What is the syntax to find if the link is correct/present
* What is the syntax to find if the file is present in specified location
* What is the syntax to find if the file is password protected to open
* I use error handler to resume the next statement if OPEN statement fails.It works fine inside the loop only for first two files.
For example if the third link is errorneous the error handler fails and RUN TIME ERROR occurs.

The attached file contains a list of customers from 2 years in column A and B respectively. I want to write a sub that takes a single argument customerName(a string variable) and it checks whether the customer is in both lists. If so, I want it to display a message and bolds both instances of the customer's name. Otherwise, I want it to display a message that the customer's name is not on both lists. I also want to write a sub that uses an input box to ask for a customer name, then calls the original sub with the customer's name as the argument.

What I would like to do is to be able to open a second workbook from a user form, preform some work on it then save and come back to the same place in the original user form.
So in steps:
1 : user clicks command button to open user form
2: user then clicks on command button on userform that opens 2nd workbook via a yes / no message box, but closes userform on 1st workbook (would be ideal if this could stay open, but hidden)
3: user then does work on 2nd workbook,
4: userform on 2nd workbook saves then activates the 1st workbook and reopens the userform
This is where no matter what I try I cant get the command button on the 1st userform to be clicked automatically so the yes / no message box appears.
This is part of the code in the 2nd sheet commandbutton that saves / closes / opens
Code:
Unload Me
ActiveWorkbook.save
Windows("ABC.xlsm").Activate
Sheets("Request Sheet").Activate
Call Sheets("Request Sheet").ForceClickOnBouttonXYZ
Call UserForm1.CommandButton6_Click 'this is where I cant get it to work!!
Windows("xyz.xlsm").Close
ABC is the 1st workbook
xyz is the 2nd workbook
This is the code on the 1st workbook I use to call on the 2nd workbook
Code:
Public Sub ForceClickOnBouttonXYZ() Call CommandButton1_Click End Sub

I have two workbooks. One is a no-nonsense form interface that my bosses will use to enter safety information. I'll call this workbook "Form". This file is stored locally on each of their computers. The other workbook is stored on a common drive. I'll call it "Master".
When my bosses fill out the Form and click "Submit", the Master file is opened, and certain cells are populated based on information entered in the Form. This is the code I am using to make this happen:

I'm doing the following:
Dim myname As String
myname = Application. GetOpenFilename
I use it to attempt to open first a QuickBooks file and then an excel workbook.
The Quickbooks file opens fine. The Excel workbook never appears to open but
I do get the full file pathname to my excel workbook returned which I then
parse off to get just the workbook name.
Why would it behave this way? I open both these files manually all the time.
Also, I'm trying to use a filter as follows:
myname = Application.GetOpenFilename("*.QBW")
I get a compile error saying that I'm calling the function wrong.

Actually i've downloaded Tracking report of my SPO and this report is on 4-5 csv files (1 file per week). I have to gather data from these 4 files into one Worksheet. I have to do this with command button on my worksheet; with Open file dialogue box (i want to locate the csv files).
CSV files are something like that (I need only first 4 columns):
ABCDE1Name MSISDN Date Location MapLink 2M. Younus Safi "923***550577" "2011-10-07 20:36:18" "ACB Tower Badragah Chakwal. Badraga" "http://asdf.com" 3M.
