I have a workbook with a button that will run a macro to open files and import sheets based on if the user checked the box. Everything works perfectly EXCEPT for the importing of the sheets from newly opened workbook.
Here is what I want the code to do:
1. if the box is checked then open the file
2. Copy (import) the first sheet in the newly opened workbook and put it before the 1st sheet.
3. Close the workbook that the sheet was copied from and do not save changes
4. active the workbook that has the newly imported sheet.
And here is what i have thus far:
Code:
Sub OpenFiles()
Dim Folderpath As String
Dim cell As Range
Dim r, LRow As Single
Dim Dbook As Workbook
Set Dbook = ActiveWorkbook
[code]....
After stepping through it, the problem is here:
Code:
Workbooks.Open Filename:=Folderpath & Range("B" & r).Value
Source = Range("B" & r)
Sheets(1).Copy Before:=Workbooks("CompletionWorksheet.xlsm").Sheets(1)
'How the hell do I close this ^ workbook
ActiveWorkbook.Close savechanges:=False 'This closes the workbook where the sheet was copied to
Windows("CompletionWorksheet.xlsm").Activate
with code in which I import data from the web via a query then try to use end(xlUp).row to find the last row of the query. Right now, the code continues while the worksheet still displays "Getting Data...", so the last row always comes out as row 1. After the data is finished importing, however, the last row is most definitely not 1.
If I put a break point after the query and wait for the data to finish importing, then let the code finish, it runs perfectly. But how can I have the code automatically wait to move on until the data is finished importing?
The idea is to select an item i one cell, which in return will affect the following cells with the nutritional values. So far so good. I would then like, if a given amount is entered, it calculates the values.
A food item is typed in Cell A. The following cells will Index Match a table (on a different sheet), importing calculation formulas based on the food items nutritional value (Cells C - G). If an amount is typed in Cell B (i.e. 100 grams) the following cells will then calculate the correct nutritional values.
i learned to make an INDEX MATCH function, so that when i type "Gulerod" or something like that, the following cells import information from the Table tab... When the table contains fixed values, this works just fine. However - i tried to make the table (the cells) with calculation formulas (i.e. =SUM(4*B3))... this means the values in the tables are 0 untill a value is typed in B3 (in this example).
... however when i do the Index Match in my main tab, only the "0"'s are imported, and no matter what value i enter in B3 in the main tab, the following cells remains with the fixed value 0.
... so my question is - is it even possible to have the Index Match function import the calculation formula from the table and have it work in the main tab as well? Or is there any other way to make this work in Excel? Basically - to have the main sheet find the relevant data to use for calculation on a different tab/sheet, and then do the actually calculations on the main tab/sheet.
I want to be able to launch code in an add-in to perform a check when other workbooks are opened by the user. Code in the Open event for the add-in launches when Excel opens, not when each workbook is opened
How can i manage that my code in the Workbook_Open() event is run when i open that workbook with some code from an other workbook?
When i manually open that workbook, excel runs all events, including my Workbook_Open() event, but i need to open this one out of an event of an other workbook.

I am using the below to open a text file and copy the used range to my working workbook. The opening of the file makes the code slow and and also it may be bcoz i am trying to paste 11800 lines of data from one file to another.

the code always opens a new instance of Outlook even though one may already be open. If left unchecked I may have like 30 instances open if I leave the computer for a few hours. So I was wondering is there some snippet of code I can add in here to check if excel is open first and if so do not open a new instance?
Code: Dim OutApp As Object Dim OutMail As Object Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0) On Error Resume Next ' Change the mail address and subject in the macro before you run it. With OutMail .To = "xxxx@live.com"
I cannot figure out how to get my error handler to work, or actually, not work. It seems to work fine when there is an error, but the code still gets read even when there was not an error. Basically, I am trying to open a file, which may or may not be there. When it is not there I want a message to pop up informing the user. However, when the file is there and it opens, the error handler still gives the message box. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Private Sub btnOK_Click() Application. ScreenUpdating = False Dim LCSfile As String LCSfile = frmSelectFile.Listbox1.Value On Error Goto ErrHandler Workbooks.Open Filename:=sPath & sDate & "" & LCSfile & "QUANT.CSV" ErrHandler: MsgBox ("File is not quantitated. Please select another file.") Application.ScreenUpdating = True

I have a need to open a file from my companies intranet. My current method was to open said file via the method that the recorder gave me. However, I would like ot be able to open a said file without having to start open another workbook.

So the command is this: Workbooks.Open [url]
Links are not actual links

I am importing data from a csv file into another program. For some reason this particular cell is causing everything past it in the same row to be thrown off. It is moving bits and pieces to the next column, then the next, etc....all in the same row though.
Can you see anything in this data that would cause issues in a csv file when importing. The data in this cell is html code for an ecommerce item description.
i have a script to import a workbook which works fine, but when the data is imported i would like to have all the data in the cells aligned to the left of the cells, as im new to vba i can work this out.
Below is the script i'm using to import.
I would like this to aligned all cells to the left and centered when imported.
Sub tst() With workbooks.open("C:example.xls") with .sheets(1).usedrange thisworkbook.sheets(1).cells(rows.count,1).end(xlup).offset(1).resize(.rows.count,columns.count)=.value end with .close False End with End Sub
I am trying to import from Excel Worksheet 1 into Excel Worksheet 2 in a user-friendly manner. I've created a form in Excel Worksheet 2 that allows the user to browse for a file and select it.
All I want to do is copy columns A through I from Worksheet 1 into Worksheet 2. How can I do this very smoothly without needing to open up Worksheet 1?
How can I limit the number of lines when importing a file? Limit the import to the first 53 lines of a file that has 50,000+ lines.
Want to import the first "XX" set of lines, then I want to skip a set of lines, then continue to import the rest of the lines. The second import needs to be inserted 2 or 3 lines down from the first import.
There is the function:
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:=
But it only has a StartRow and can not specify the "EndRow". Also can not specify where to start in the worksheet, i.e. Cell A5
I have a Excel workbook (wb1) where the columns are showing the months and the rows are showing different actions/activities. If an action takes place in a specified month the cell corresponding to both the action and the month is marked yellow.
In another workbook (wb2) I want to be able to retrive data from wb1. What I want is that when wb2 is opened it should do a search in wb1 to find the first action/activity that takes place in the current month. The activity/action text should be imported to a textbox or cell in wb2.
I want to import data from the web into Excel, but the data I want come from the result of a query - I have to enter a few parameters and get the results. I would like to import these results into Excel but although I can enter the website for Excel to look at I cannot figure out how I can enter the parameters to generate the results.
I am having a little trouble with this piece of simple code that just seems to be not working the way i want to. I can't figure why it won't work.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Sheets("Global").Select Range("B5:F19").Copy Range("B25").PasteSpecial (xlPasteAll) Range("B5:E5").ClearContents Range("B7:E7").ClearContents Range("B11:E11").ClearContents Range("B13:F13").ClearContents Range("B17:D17").ClearContents Range("B19:D19").ClearContents End Sub
for some reason if i try to do Range("B5:F19").Select and then do Selection.Copy, I get an application error message. This has never happened before and for some reason it just started to act up. If you want to know what it does when I run this macro.. it actually doesn't go to Sheet "Global" it stays in the same sheet and does all the copying/pasting/clearing in the same sheet as the button is. I made sure that the tab is "Global" and i have confirmed caps. spaces everything.
I have made a macro to import the a excel file into a new file after truncating few initial rows. Here is the code for it:

I have a multilevel XML file. Attached my1.zip (XML files cannot be uploaded as is, hence I had to zip it). When I import the XML into excel, it creates multiple columns for the multilevel data. However, I need the multilevel data as additional rows. I have attached another excel file sample.xlsx which shows how excel imports the XML and how I actually need the data to be.
