VBA - Syntax Delete Data From Clipboard Before Closing A File
Feb 22, 2008
I recorded a Macro to open a workbook, copy and paste data from one excel workbook to another, and close the workbook which was opened. Everything works fine except:
because of the amount of data that I am copying, I get a message box saying "There is a large amount of information on the Clipboard. Do you want to be able to paste this information into another prgoram later?" with a Yes/No button.
So now I have to click the "No" button before my macro closes the excel file. Is there a simple line of code that will by-pass this?
I am assuming it has to do with the following:
Windows("Book1.xls").Activate
ActiveWindow.Close , savechanges:=False

I have a workbook from which i copy data and paste in another sheet, then close first excel. But copied data which is stored in memory gives a warning before closing the excel file.
The code i use is:
Sub Macro1()
Worksheets("Output").Range("A7:e1500").ClearContents
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
ChDir (Range("D3").Text)
Workbooks.Open Filename:=(Range("J4").Text)
Sheets("Final output").Select
Range(Range("P5").Text).Select
Selection.Copy
ThisWorkbook.Activate

I am drawing a complete blank. If in a macro I have determined and built a string list of non-contiguous rows that need to be deleted (e.g. rows 3, 5, and 7) from a range of rows named "Prices", what would be the correct syntax?
For example, I know it isn't..
Prices("3:3", "5:5", "7:7").Rows.Delete
because this gives me a "Type Mismatch".

Came across an example in a VBA book, wrt adding custom menu items. This example included code for deleting the menu item before closing the workbook.
Is there a reason you'd want to do this? The example already had provisions to delete the menu item if it already existed before the code ran, so you wouldn;t end up with multiple items...

At the moment, there is no compile error or runtime error, but if I manually attempt to open the file (that was successfully read from), I get the message that the file is already open and is locked by myself (the user) and that multiple Excel processes are still running (I checked the task manager).
How do I close this Excel file (no changes to be made since I only read from the file) and quit Excel from running ?
Here is what I have at the moment :
Dim FirstName, Surname As String
'file path and name for the Excel file
Dim FileNamePath As String = "C:UsersMRCDesktopMRC FilesVisual Basic FilesSwimManager 2014CurrentSeasonDATASquadData.xls"
[Code].....

The Macro asks the user to point at the location of a report, it then copies information out of that report and pastes it into a master sheet. The part I am having trouble with is closing the file that data has been copied from.
I have tried different things to close it such as

I'm making a workbook which I want to distribute widely. It will have a lot of changes to the menus which happen 'onOpen'.
I am keen to not spoil peoples special menu setups on closing the workbook.
If I understand correctly, on closing, Excel writes the current menu settings to the .xlb file. Does anyone know of a way to prevent it doing this so that peoples setups are left unchanged?
Presumably there is code that will do it but I've searched a long time and found nothing.

I close an existing excel file I need to automatically save it to another folder as the same name. I don't want any prompts or save as boxes to appear when this happens.
I need to do this as I use the file all the time, but need to save it on to a network where others can view it.

I am trying to fix the width of a column everytime I open it but I can't. After I have fixed the column width and saved it before I close the file, when i reopen it, the column width will expand. The data source of that column is a real time query. I tried to lock the cell but when i locked it, I can't refresh the data from the query as it is locked. So, is there any way for me to achieve that?

Code:
' write data to txt file
For j = 1 To 3
For k = 1 To 21
Print FNum, OPTOarray(j, k)
Next k
Next j
I am writing an Array to a text file but I keep getting an error that the Print statement requires a suitable object. I tried Debug but all this did was put the data into the immediate window and created a file that was empty.
"????.Print FNum, OPTOarray(j, k)".
The data in the immediate window is correct but when you open the text file with notepad there is nothing to be seen.

I was wondering if there is any code using an on-click method. When clicking a button i need excel to exit the file/sheet without saving (no prompts) and then re-open the exact same file/sheet once it has closed.
In a way this is like a refresh button.

I´m writting a macro. It works find until a certain point. When I want to change some outputs of the macro without changing the syntax, it display an error mesage while runing the macro. It says Else without If. Which is quite disturbing because the Else was not creating any problem before. Here is my macro before I changed the conditions (this one work nicely)
Sub Copy_Sheet_Beta()
Set wba = ActiveWorkbook
On Error Resume Next
If IsWorkbookOpened("Projekt.xls", "C:Documents and SettingsfrederikSkrivebordRedd Barna") Then
Workbooks("Projekt.xls").Activate 'In case open, just activate "Projekt"
Else
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:Documents and SettingsfrederikSkrivebordRedd Barnaprojekt.xls"
End If
Set wb = Workbooks("Projekt.xls")
wb.Activate
If Not SheetExists(wba.ActiveSheet. Range("C1").Value) Then
MsgBox "overall doesn't exist!"
Else........................................

I have code in VBA that takes a source Excel file and parses it to multiple re-formatted worksheets. Each formatted worksheet is different depending on a variable in the source. There are n of each type of data (1:n Water Sources, 1:n Water Treatment, 1:n Water Storage). Each item needs a copy of a blank re-formatted worksheet appended to the end of the existing data-type worksheet. For example: Water Source #2 is appended to the bottom of Water Source #1 on the same worksheet.
Currently, I am opening the blank re-formatted workbook each time an additional variable of same type is found in the source file. Meaning, if there are 8 Water Sources, I am opening and closing the blank re-formatted workbook 7 times to copy a blank Water Source to the bottom of the Water Source worksheet and then populate the data. AND if there are 3 Water Treatment, I would open and close the blank formatted workbook 2 more times to copy a blank Water Treatment to the bottom of the Water Treatment worksheet. The same goes for Water Treatment.
Obviously, a huge waste of resources and performance. I would rather open the blank re-formatted workbook once (first time an additional worksheet is needed), use the worksheets as needed, and close it at the end.
Attached is my current, working code of the above.
How should I re-write it to check if the blank workbook is already open use it, if not open it?
Code:
Sub Add_Facility(ByVal Worksheet_Name, Copy_Range, Max_Limit)
Dim Last_Row As Integer
Dim Source_Range As Range
Dim Dest_Range As Range
Dim wkb As Workbook
Set wkb = ActiveWorkbook
[Code] ........

I have a huge data file. I would like to have excel automatically delete all rows with the value of 7 in column b. Can I do this without manually selecting all of the rows (I can sort by that value, but there are 120,000 rows).

I'm trying to implement a very simple macro to paste a set of cells - already copied to the clipboard from a CSV file - into a worksheet.
Basically, all I need it to do is to allow the user to open that other CSV file, hit CTRL+A and CTRL+C, then go to the relevant sheet in my workbook and run the macro, which should simply paste the copied data into that sheet (starting at cell A30).
Here's what I have so far - I keep getting an error when the macro reaches the ActiveSheet.Paste command.
VB:
Sub UpdateData()

' UpdateData Macro

Dim strSheetName As String

Range("E11").Select

I've just written a macro to copy large amount of data from one worksheet into another. It works well right now, except a little problem. Every time I run the macro, there is always a message box appeared. It let me to choose whether to save or delete data on the clipboard. And I usually choose 'no'. (The message box has been screenshotted and attached into this thread.) Because I use this macro very often, it really makes troubles to me. Is there anyway to block the message box. I mean let it never appear?

I read in a txt file with the code below. There's some kind of special character in the last 3 lines of the input file that makes the macro crash. I don't need anything in those 3 rows. How can I delete them before my Do Until loop?

Dim Mytxt As String
Mytxt = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="EXCEL files (*.txt),*.txt", Title:="Open the Report file you need")
If Mytxt = "" Then Exit Sub
Workbooks.Open Filename:=Mytxt
Open Mytxt For Input As #1
i = 1
Do Until (EOF(1) = True)
Line Input #1, tempstr
Cells(i, 1) = Mid(tempstr, 23, 5)
Cells(i, 2) = Mid(tempstr, 25, 1)
Cells(i, 3) = Mid(tempstr, 33, 3)

Using a macro I want to paste from the clip board.
I can manually do this by opening the clipboard, selecting the data, which pastes to my specified location.
The macro copies to the clipboard okay, but loses the data that I want to paste because just before pasting I have to clear data which was previously been filtered - I have to do this at this point. The macro bogs down. If I end the macro there, I can manually open the clip board and choose the data I copied from there and paste it that way. I'd like the macro to do this for me.

Goal: I have data that was copied to my clipboard from the webpage source in a Chrome browser. I would like to get that data over to my excel worksheet and insert it starting at "A1".
Issue: All of the pasted data is ending up in ONLY cell "A1" when using VBA.
When I just click in cell "A1" and CTRL-V, the data gets spread across a lot of cells, which is what I am after.
Code:
'------------------------------------------
'Start The Process
'------------------------------------------
' Assigning clipboard data to string variable strClip
Dim MyData As DataObject
Dim strClip As String
Set MyData = New DataObject
MyData.GetFromClipboard

How to turn off or default the warning box message ...
"Data on the Clipboard is not the same size and shape as the selected area. Do you want to paste the data anyway"
I hate having to click yes on this every time I paste something. I do it hundreds of times a day.
My tables is centered and merged because my external date changes sizes each time I paste to the table.
I have looked all over to try and find an "OFF" warning/message button for this. I just want to know how to turn it off or default it to never pop up again!

Need aid in copying certain cells with text/labels to clipboard to format a body of email to be sent via Yahoo webmail, so I can paste it where needed.
I did a couple of Excel VBA's back in 2000 or so at last job but haven't seen/used VBA since.
Have a spreadsheet with customer data, (one cust per row) and wish to create something like the following in clipboard (in this example, assuming row 2 is the selected row)...I'll only be sending out one or two of these per day so nothing fancy is needed, just a way to avoid retyping critical data that could get mistyped.
--------------------
A8
Rental details for 2008
Customer Name : A2
Unit nbr : A3
Nbr of weeks : A4
Balance due : A5
--------------------
I'm using Office 2000 still...I've done some searching but results found seem to complicated for my situation or not quite close enough for me to see how to apply it.

I have some code to open up another workbook, take the data from sheet1 in it, copy it to a sheet in the first book, and then close the opened workbook. My problem is that whenever it closes the workbook it gives me the large amount of data on clipboard window that I must then click 'No' on before it will proceed. I thought that making CutCopyMode = False would fix that, but it hasnt worked. Heres the bit of code that does this:
CutCopyMode = False
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"G:InventoryInventory.xls"
Range("A1:M500").Select
Selection.Copy
Windows("Inventory Report.xls").Activate
Sheets("Vis-W").Select
Cells.Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Range("A1").Select
Windows("Inventory.xls").Activate
CutCopyMode = False
ActiveWindow.Close
Sheets("Main").Select

I'm copying large amounts of data from one full sheet in one workbook to the sheet in another book.
Everything is now automated, except that it asks in between books if I need to keep the Clipboard data.
