I have used the 'VLOOKUP' function many times with success (eventually), but this time I might not be able to do what I want.
So, my question is this: using VLOOKUP, can I lookup 2 or more different table arrays in the 1 formula?
What I have is a member database of 140,000 , they all have a unique member ID number (eg. APL098829) and the program that contains these members has them broken down into 300+ .csv files (eg. APL_001.csv, APL_002, APL_003, etc)
When they come to an event their card is scanned. The members in my area are usually around the same numbers (ie. APL_097, APL_098). So this is why I would like to search these 2 database for their member ID and Return their name.
Not sure if this makes sense, after all it's 0150am here and I think I have nodded off a couple of times writing this.
I've 2 excel files open. The first with my data, and a second with a huge range. I need to work with a macro that used vlookup to get a value from the second file in the first.
My code:
VB: Sub mysub()
Dim i As Integer Dim y As Integer Dim match As String Dim no_match As Integer Dim rng As Range 'Set rng = Workbooks("wb2").Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("$A$1:$B$2704")
I have a spreadsheet (Need Data.xls) that needs to be filled out with a couple columns of data.
This data lays within 338 spreadsheets which have many items and may only have 2, or 3, or 50 that belong on my Need Data.xls spreadsheet.
I have a tab in Need Data.xls named "DIR" which has a list of 336 excel files that need to vlookup'd into.(not a separate file) They're all setup with this format:
how I can loop through folders to select files starting with a certain word and copy all of them to a different folder and rename them. The folder structure is given below
Company 1(parent folder) North South East(sub folder) West(sub folder) Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec Jan Feb Mar.... Dec
In the above structure, the files are present inside each folders Jan, feb...Dec under the regions North, South East n west. note that I have to select files starting with "Sales" and copy them into a new folder(say results) and rename copied files as Sales1.xls, Sales2.xls etc. (Files are not present in the folder company1, north, south, east and east.)
I have a excel file that I enter information into. I have code that saves the files to a certain folder with the name, date, and time stamp for the file name. At the end of the day I might have 3 to 15 excel files I have created that day and I would like to take information from certain cells (examle: L3, B6, B7, B8, G8, and so on) and create a txt file with all of the information in it.
Example: 12/20/2007 Your Name 123 Somewhere St. Here, OH 45111 Home Visit
I have about 100 Excel files in one folder that need to be saved as text files. They can keep the same name, but simply need to be converted to text files. I'd like to use VBA for this and I can't find examples that do exactly that...or ones that my limited knowledge can handle.
Excel files exist in C:Source and ALL of them should be saved as text files in C:Destination. Maybe there is an easier way, but I thought for sure there was a routine I could use.
I need to VLOOKUP an item # (ColA-receipts.xls) to ColA-Inventory.xls, but if it's NOT found in Inventory.xls then it should try looking it up for a match in file ColA-NewInventory.xls
I am trying to write a Macro that will do the following.
1. Using a new workbook 2. Open a file in a in a directory. Then 3. Run a vlookup using the opened file as the filename in the vlookup 4. Paste the results of the vlookup into the original file next to the file name. 5. Close the file and open the next one in the folder.
The folder contains about 2k files that it needs to loop through. I found a macro on this site created by Ravishankar and attempted to add to it. Not going so well.
I'm trying to create a macro that will find the parent folder of the active workbook, zip all files within that workbook, then email that zipped file to a distribution list that is located in a separate file within the same drive. ideally, afterwards it would also delete the zip file that had just been created. The vlookup would reference a stationary cell within each of the files i use (same tab name and cell location) 'Summary'!B2
I'm trying to compare two very large files to find some that are in one AND also in the other. I'm using =VLOOKUP(C2,Parts2!C:D,1,FALSE) and my results are #N/A for all of them. I have formatted both columns as 'General' because there can be letters and numbers in the serial number, I have also tried formatting as text to no avail. I have confirmed no preceding or trailing spaces or other special characters.
I am however, able to locate values in both documents using Ctrl F. I'm totally puzzled because I've always been able to figure out what's causing my Vlookup issues when I have them but this time I'm not able to.
I have six files that are formatted the same(fld1-1.xlsx, fld1-2.xlsx...). Each file contains an I.D. number (random 25 digit number) in column A and a note (1-9) in column B. The only thing that changes between files is the note column. I want to pull from these six files into a master file. When all six files are combined the note column in the master file is complete, there are no duplicates. Because a blank vlookup returns a zero, could I use an IF formula. Something like IF VLOOKUP FROM data01(ISNUMBER(0), then vlookup in file data02. IF VLOOKUP FROM data02(ISNUMBER(0), then vlookup in file data03.
I have about 85 files that I need to rename. These files contain data concerning delivery and quality data of each of our suppliers...1 file per supplier.
Current File Name: SupplierA 2012.xlsx New File Name: Supplier A 2013.xlsx
Is there a way to do mass rename the files..
and that leads to my second question...each of these files contain vlookups to 2012 data...which is contained in the a file with 2012 in the file name. I need to replace source data file (i.e. 2012 Index) with the new file containing the 2013 data (i.e 2013 Index). Is there a way to replace that source data across 85 or so files using some time of mass find and repalce? All the cell references remain the same
I have a directory which contains many files, they are all names based on their locations. eg. Burwood-File1.xls,Burwood-File2.xls,Burwood-File3.xls etc
I have a master that which will contain the branch in the first column.
I have defined the directory location in a separate sheet as well as email template.
When I click on the Send Email button I want ti to attach the files that match the Branch name.
I have 8 different files all have a set of data in them
each one has a long list of (column a-n) however the number of rows change by date. I need each file copied into the finalfile.xls one after another. in the files that will be merged into the final file the final row i need copied is blank. I have all the copy formulas and everything set, I just need a range to copy that automaticaly takes cell a10 to the first blank a cell from each file and pastes it in the finalfile.xls under the last paste so they dont over write each other.
I have one main Excel file with information (in example file - columns A & B). I want to create 4 other Excel files that will draw from the main one (in example file - columns D, F, H, & J). I want the information in Excel file A, B, C, and D to be continuous information that matches the main file. For example, the letter A matches up with numbers 1,3,4,10,11,13,15,17, and 19 in the main file. When I open Excel file A, I want a continuous list of these numbers. And I want this for all 4 Excel files which draw from the main one.
So, today my manager came to me and informed me that he wanted me to do a little data entry for him... WOW... So I have about 2000 invoices to go through(all excel files, in their dated folders... 12-2-2013(folder) and the filenames are 12-2-2013(1), 12-2-2013(2) etc.)
I need to take these individual files and have certain cells from each in certain cells of a new workbook for example...
file 12-2-2013(1)... I need cell C3 from that file to go to cell A2(and this will be the same for all the other files... 12-2-2013(2) cell C3 needs to be in A3 etc etc etc.. this is the sale date) file 12-2-2013(1)... I need cell a15 and b15(they are both "stretched out" cells) to be put in C3 of the new workbook and so on.
is there an easy way/formula to do this all? I have to have this done by friday at the latest(tomorrow preferred @@) I have to input data for 7 cells...
I need to create a dynamic template for importing data from multiple .txt files to my workbook on a daily basis.
I recorded the macro for importing ONE txt files and starting to deveop it into looping through multiple txt files and sheets but to no avail.
1) Currently I have 4 named ranges
FileLocation = Location of my source file FileName = All the file names of my txt files SheetDestination = The sheet to be paste for each txt file (further explaination below) FileFormat = .txt (for VBA purpose)
2) The macro recorded was in "ActiveSheet", thus I thought of looping through each sheet (put the activate code at the first line) for the codes to run.
3) ColA ColB 1SP.txt 2IND.txt 3US.txt 4 5 6
Column A is my SheetDestination, while Column B is the respective filename for source txt file. My final intended result would be simply macthing sheet 1 against SP, sheet 2 against IND, sheet 3 against US... so on and so forth....
I want to create a certification only list on a separate tab of training that has been completed where a certification has been issued (as indicated by a "Y" in the "Certification?" column on the training tracking tab) and then populate from some of the fields vs. all of the fields.
What I have now, only pulls the first occurence, not all occurences. I saw that I could have identified the multiple columns that needed to be populated, but it didn't work either, so I'm fine putting a separate vlookup in each column.
I am trying to create a formula which looks in 1 cell to determine 'IF' it states either "BUTT CUT" or "DIE CUT" and then does a VLOOKUP in a table array for each which ever column relates to asnwer to 'IF statement.
This is as far as I have got but even this won't work:
I have an excel file for each day of the month. Each file has 2 sheets for sure and some files have 3. I want to make one master file at the end of the month that shows all sheets. *1st sheet is master report. 2nd & 3rd sheets are created as a pivot table.
I have a question about CSV files...I have to import about 80 csv files into excel as separate sheets in the same workbook. I can only get it to import into its own workbook. Is there a way to import all of them into the same workbook all at once? Also, I am currently using csv files, but if what I want done can be done with a different file type, it doesn't matter.
I'm currently using this script to download over 400 txt files which are needed for a project here at work. It works great, however, it will download the ftp files in question (which it gets a list of from another tab) in order. I would like a way to either download all 400 ato nce, or in a batch of 50 or even 100. As it is, the procedure takes around 70 mins to complete. I was hoping of a way to speed it up.
Here is the script I am using.
VB: 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 Public Function DownloadFile(URL As String, LocalFilename As String) As Boolean Dim lngRetVal As Long lngRetVal = URLDownloadToFile(0, URL, LocalFilename, 0, 0)
I need to rename a large number of .pdf files. I have a list of the current file names in column A and the desired file names in column B.
Data in excel sheet1:
Current NameDesired Name AAA-BBB-001.PDFAAA-BBB-001-Description.PDF AAA-BBB-002.PDFAAA-BBB-002-Description.PDF AAA-BBB-003.PDFAAA-BBB-003-Description.PDF AAA-BBB-004.PDFAAA-BBB-004-Description.PDF AAA-BBB-005.PDFAAA-BBB-005-Description.PDF
I keep them in the destination folder below:
C:UsersmeDesktopA
I prefer to use an excel macro since I can't install any additional software on my work computer.
I have part of macro to import a txt file into excel but it is not working as it should. It is giving me a message "This file is not a recognizable format" but its just a normal txt file. Also after it gives me this warning it will open in excel and with every new txt file it gives me this warning and after it opens it.
The code I am using is:
Sub su() Dim oWbk As Workbook Dim sFil As String Dim sPath As String sPath = "C:Historical" 'location of files ChDir sPath sFil = Dir("*.txt") 'change or add formats Do While sFil "" 'will start LOOP until all files in folder sPath have been looped through Set oWbk = Workbooks.Open(sPath & "" & sFil) 'opens the file Workbooks.OpenText (sPath & "" & sFil), Comma:=True, DataType:=xlDelimited ' do something sFil = Dir Loop ' End of LOOP End Sub
In this line it gives me Runtime error 1004 Method 'Opentext' of object workbook failed: Workbooks.OpenText (sPath & "" & sFil), Comma:=True, DataType:=xlDelimited
I need to import about 1500 HTML file into a DB (SQL Server). But (here is the big problem), I only need to import some data of each HTML file (always the same line/variable).
So I thought using Excel as you can say with part of the HTML file you want to import. It works great.
But I did it with one file. Is there a way you can select a whole directory and it does it for you?
I send out 300 or so spreadsheets. The spreadsheet contains lines of products that recipients have on hire. Column L allows to the user to put YES or NO on each line, to state whether it is correct or not. The user then sends this sheet back.
The difficult part for me is I have to open each spreadsheet, and deal with all the instances of NO in column L. It takes almost a day to go through every spreadsheet.
Is it at all possible to have some sort of macro, VBA sript or access front page, that allows me to search all instances of 'NO' in all the spreadsheets which are in 1 designated folder?
Hopefully I am making sense in what Im after.. ideally I'd need a button on a spreadsheet that I click to give me all rows that contain NO in column L.
All the file names will be constant each week. (so each file name will be 01 - Hire List.xls, 02-Hire List.xls, 03-Hire List.xls etc etc).
