Userform - Insert File's Last Saved Date


if there is an easy way of showing the active file "Last Saved Date" on a Userform and have it show automatically when the Userform is opened? The Scenario is:

I have a "Main" userform screen and I want to have a text line which says, "File last updated on xx/yy/zzzz ". This must show up automatically when the "main" userform is opened.

Tip To Show 'last Saved' Date On Worksheet
how I can have the latest date a file was saved showing on the worksheet? For example, I open a worksheet that was last saved on Sept 22nd, and after updating it today, I save it and want the date to show today's date?

I'm pretty sure I've seen it in some files in my working life, so would appreciate advice on this!

Open File With Last/Lastest Saved Date
I'm looking for a code which is checking the file name first before opening and operating on it. File name format is filenameyyyymmdd.xls but the problem is files in that directory are saved irregularly (couple times a week) and I need to open the newest saved file.

Doesn't Work If The Worksheet Hasn't Been Saved Yet
I'm trying to simplify a formula that I'm using in a spreadsheet that's being used mostly in Excel 2000.

2 reasons I'm doing this:

1) It doesn't work if the worksheet hasn't been saved yet.
2) It's ugly

=DATE(YEAR(DATEVALUE(MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,3) & " 20" & MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+5,2))),MONTH(DATEVALUE(MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,3) & " 20" & MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+5,2)))+1,0)

The formula returns the last day of the month of the name of the sheet. For example, if the sheet is names "Mar 07", it returns 3/31/07. (yeah, when the 2100 issue becomes a big deal, I'm not going to be ready but I have 92 years to think about it)

Even if I can't make it prettier, does anyone have a way to get the sheet name into a formula without VBA Code in a file that hasn't been saved.

Run-Time Error '1004' Cannot Open PivotTable Source File 'Consolidated Report'
I have a macro that takes the date from different excel sheets, consolidates the data and renders the pivot table and chart accordingly.

File Cannot Be Saved In This Format
I have a file with code attached and when I try to save it I am told that the file cannot be saved in this format and that I must unprotect the code before saving.

Does anyone have a solution for this problem. The code must be protected, non-protection is not an option.

Inadvertently Saved Over An Important File
I'm not sure how I did it, but I opened up a new Excel file and accidentally saved it over a file I've been working on all afternoon. Is there any way to recover the original file (per the last time I saved it about 20 min ago)?

I looked in the "wastebasket" and only found files that I had specifically DELETED. But I didn't specifically delete this one, instead I saved over it.

Deleting Code On The Saved File
I have a template that when it is opened it will automatically save the file to a specific location with the date in the file name.

Currently my code is

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "G:Shared"IT_New " & Format(Date, "mm-dd-yy") & ".xls", , , , , , xlShared
End Sub
Does anyone know a way to have this code disabled (either by deleting or making it all a comment) on the saved file (xls) so the speadsheet does not try and overwrite itself when I go back and open a previous days spreadsheet?

Saved File Size Not Reduced To Original
I have an Excell 2003 workbook with 6 worksheets and some VBA programmed macros in it.

With a small amount of data the .xls file size is 150k. Then I tested it with a much larger sample of data, which goes into one of the worksheets, resulting size 3MB. Later on I reverted to reading in the original small amount of data but the file size stubbornly sticks to 400k instead of reverting to 150k.

The old data is definitely not there anymore - I used this code to clear it:

Adding 'select All' Option To Userform Listbox

My question is this - as there may be many options in each listbox to scroll through, if someone wanted to search on all the options in the listbox, it would be easier to have a 'Select All' option at the top, but I have no idea if this is possible, let alone how to do this -

Run-time Error '1004':File Not Found :: Folder On Network
The script below scans through a specified folder on a network and scans every xls file inside that folder for a value. When it finds the spreadsheet which contains that value (a policy number) it outputs some of the data from the matching file and also provides a link to the sheet in question.

It worked perfectly until I saved, exited and re-opened the file and now I am getting a 1004 run-time error every time I try and execute the script.

I cant for the life of me work out a cause.

More baffling, the wording of the error says that the file 'R:DirCancellations.xls' could not be found.

At no point is a file called 'Cancellations.xls' specified. Why has the script decided to search for a file called 'Cancellations'?

Sub Search()

ActiveSheet.unprotect
ActiveWorkbook.unprotect
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim TheFile As String
Dim MyPath As String
Dim DirLoc As String
Dim PolNum As String
ActiveSheet.Range("C13:G25").ClearContents................
