VBA - Download Excel File From Internet And Then Extract Data Out Of It
Dec 20, 2012
I'm trying to download an Excel file from the internet and then extract data out of it. The problem is that I don't get any errors, yet the file downloaded is only 1kb in size. The extraction bit works, but the file is empty. The actual file is size 350KB.
Code:
Sub ExtractDataTest()
Dim FileNum As Long
Dim FileData() As Byte
Dim MyFile As String
Dim WHTTP As Object
On Error Resume Next

30 people in different countries use a sophisticated VBA Excel file on their local PCs, let's call it myexcelfile.xls. This file contains no custom data, as all data is stored in myexcelfile_backup.xls.
The biggest challenge with this set up is that whenever there is a newer release or bugfix of myexcelfile.xls, I need to send it out per email to 30 people and hope they replace it with my updated version.
Note that newer versions can replace older versions without any data loss, as all data is stored in the backup file.
Idea: with tools like WGET or BITSADMIN, I was thinking of creating a batch file, that would simply download the latest version from a FTP server, and replace the older version with the newly downloaded one.
Constraints: I shouldn't be using any software that is not native to Windows 7the files can sit in different folders on these 30 computers, therefore the update mechanism would have to identify the path they are in.the update mechanism would have to close the file first before running the update. Question: What is the best way to go about this? A DOS Batch file? Or another excel file that is just the "updater", meaning, it's only purpose is to download the new file from the web and overwrite the old file?

For some reason the following Macro won't work:
Code:
Sub ExtractDataTest()
Dim FilePath$, Row&, Column&, Address$
'change constants & FilePath below to suit
'***************************************
Const FileName$ = "Dxo.xlsx"
Const SheetName$ = "Open"
[Code] .......
I get a run-time error '52' on line ("Bad file name or number"):
Code:
If Dir(FilePath & FileName) = Empty Then
And when location is 'C:' it works and I don't get an error.

Extracting data from an excel file, the data needed in lies in one column.
in this line
<GPSPosition pntRef="GPS_Auto_0080" wgsLatitude="33.334329659885" wgsLongitude="44.405736558207" wgsHeight="27.615921">
i need to get a table with three columns shows
wgsLatitude, wgs Longitude , wgsHeight
33.334329659885 ,44.405736558207 , 27.615921
etc
and get rid of all other information
this is an example of the how the file look like
---------Column N -------------------
</Feature>
</GPSPosition>
</GPSSetup>
<GPSSetup id="GPSSetupID_18" GPSReceiverDetailsID="GPS_1" antennaHeight="1.660000" stationName="GPS_Auto_0080">
<GPSPosition pntRef="GPS_Auto_0080" wgsLatitude="33.334329659885" wgsLongitude="44.405736558207" wgsHeight="27.615921">
[code].....
seems from above that there are too many data not needed the only thing need to be exracting is one lies of GPSPosition Line.

I have a requirement to download a lot of historical data files from the archieve of an website. The url goes something like this: [URL]....
This downloads file for 21022014 ie. 21-Feb-2014. I need to be able to have a facility to have a selection criteria on my user form (in excel) where I specify a date range and the macro automatically downloads all the valid excel files available within that date range (files for Saturday, Sunday and some holiday dates will not be available in the website archive database) one after the other (like at single clcik of button) into a specific location (predefined viz.. c:/Users/EOD files/) on my laptop. Best would be if I am able to select the save location run time by using a 'Browse' like feature where I go and choose my local laptop folder...same type when we try uploading a file from our laptop to the web..

The code below looks at file names in column A and then goes to a folder and opens and copies the data in range c2 -lastrow from each file and pastes the data into sheet2.
how I could add to the code so that it also inserts the file name in column c?
It would make it easier to track the data in column B.
VB:
Sub CopyFromFile()
Dim fPath As String
Dim lRow As Long
[Code].....
I have attached a sample workbook. The list of file name is in sheet 1. An example of the output is in sheet 2. The data in column A is dummy data generally spans 100's of rows not just 10 as in the example.
The purpose of the code is to be able to put a list of file names in column a in sheet 1 and extract data from those files in a folder. The data extraction works fine. The reson for adding the file names is so that I know what file the data came from.

I have been working on automating IE. Part of my task involves using explorer to download a file from a given url and save it to disk. I've figured out how to launch explorer and start the download, but then a dialogue box appears asking whether to save the file and where to save it. how do I automatically get past this and save the file to e.g "quotes.xls"?

I need to set up an automated process to open an existing .xls file, extract the data from specific cells located in that file and insert it into a totally different file that I have preformatted to accept this data.
Example scenario:
If I have "that_file.xls" and it is unopened, but it contains data in cells "A2 thru F2" that I need to extract... then I have "this_file.xls" , which is open, and set up with all my calculation cells and a specific layout (lets say it has cells "D8, E9, F10, G11, H12, and I13"). I want to be able to add a button to "this_file.xls" to run a macro that would open a file search window where I can select "that_file.xls", and then it will automatically extract the data from "that_file.xls" into "this_file.xls" as follows:
A2 to D8
B2 to E9
C2 to F10
D2 to G11
E2 to H12
F2 to I13

How to save a file onto the computer using VBA. The code template below that I found on another forum seems promising, except when I go to the desktop to access it, the .csv file has what looks like the page's source code instead of the actual file I want. This may be because when I go to the url, it doesn't automatically download the file; rather, I am asked to save the file to a certain location (since I don't know the path name of the uploaded file on the site).
Is there any way to alter this code to accommodate this, or will I have to use a different code entirely?
VB:
Sub Test()
Dim FileNum As Long
Dim FileData() As Byte
Dim MyFile As String
Dim WHTTP As Object
[Code] .....

have a link such as www.abc.se/downloadfile?file=12345. When opening this link in a browser the DownloadFile window popups and the file can be downloaded.
I would like to be able to download the file without involving the DownloadFile pop up (since some users have auto open enabled thus the downloadfile pop-up is not always shown)
I have tried URLDownloadToCacheFile and similiar methods but they fail as they dont have the direct link to the file.
So my question now is how can I extract the direct url?
There should be a way to capture it since it will be used in the downloadfile dialog.

I have a program operating in excel 2007 that extracts a picture from a URL and puts it into a PPT slide. I now discover that PPT 2007 doesn't allow this.
So my intent now is to download the jpg into a local file and then import into the PPT.
This is from a couple of sites:
[url]
[url]
At the top of the code:
Option Explicit
Private Declare Function URLDownloadToFile Lib "urlmon" Alias "URLDownloadToFileA" _
(ByVal pCaller As Long, _
ByVal szURL As String, _
ByVal szFileName As String, _
ByVal dwReserved As Long, _
ByVal lpfnCB As Long) As Long
in the excel cell if a URL picture needs to be inserted it starts with the prefix "picture=" then the http address.
This did not work.
So I then copied the code from the websites into a module (changing the destination file and URL to mine of course) and called the procedure and still nothing.

complete the attached code (Excel VBA) to automatically process a File Download dialog from Internet Explorer. I want to click "Save" which will produce the "Save As" dialog. Then I need to enter a default filename like (C:Temp) and click "Save" again. When this is working, I will hide Internet Explorer to make the operation completely transparent to the user. The URL is a sample chosen specifically for this test case.
Public Sub Report_Test()
Dim objIE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
Dim strURL As String
Dim varItem As Variant
' Establish connection to the Internet Explorer application.
Set objIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
' Set Internet Explorer visible.
objIE.Visible = True

I have large number of sql files in various folders in my windows7 laptop.
I have extracted the file names with full path in column A in an excel work book.
For each row, I now need to parse the file and extract the file contents and put it in column B, for the respective row.
I want the entire query content to be populated in the row without parts of query to spillover to other column (based on comma etc in the query)
I am using excel 2007.

I have some code I'm running that works flawlessly when running it in excel. The problem arises when the generic user opens the file via a website I have running, if they chose to run the file in internet explorer rather than saving the file I get the following error:
runtime '1004' error
application-defined or object-defined error
The problem occurs in this code:
Code:
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B2")) Is Nothing Then
Load UserForm1
UserForm1.Show vbModeless
[Code]....
I have similar code for refreshing specific pages with the "RefreshAll" being changed to "RefreshTower1" for example and I run into the same error.

I have a report that is downloaded off a company database and creates a report that is attached.
Is there a way to create a macro to extract some data that I need and leave the rest:
I need to keep and everything in the assigned column
PB ID (A3), Issue (B3), Group Code (J3), Group Name (K3), Sub group id (L3), Sub Group Name (M3),Subject ID (L3), Subject Group Name (M3), Subject ID (N3), Subject (O3), PB Status (P3), CPM Report Name (T3), CPM Profile Name (U3), Profile State (V3).
The worksheet's name changes so I can't reference the worksheet. Attached is a copy of what I get when downloaded.

Now I have to extract the names and the corresponding column values from this list by referring to a notepad that contains the ticker names to be extracted, place in another workbook and save that file.

My data looks like this - it's a text file that I import into Excel.
What I'm looking for is operations that require welding, as indicated by the "Weld:" in Row 61. If it is a weld operation, I want to know the time (121.705) and the Operator involved (Opr 2 - Row 64).
I'm simply using an IF statement in a loop to extract these specific cells:
Range("N2").Select
Do
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(MID(RC[-13],11,5)=""Weld:"",LEFT(RC[-13],3),"""")"
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Offset(0, -13))
Because I don't know how to write "real" code, it does a similar loop 5 times. Once to pull the sequence number (the first number), then the time, then I have 3 separate columns looking for Operator 1, 2 or 3, respectively. Once those 5 loops are complete there is a pivot table that summarizes the sequences for each operator.
It works fine, but it's slow. Some of the text files have 10,000 lines in them.
