Web Query - Import Just Specific Tables On Site?
Aug 17, 2013
I have a website (National Lacrosse League - 2013 Regular Season - Standings), that I want to pull information off and automatically into Excel.
I have been using web queries on other websites, and they have worked beautifully, however the tables that I want aren't recognised by the web query wizard (no yellow/black arrows). I can import the whole page through a query, however that's not really practical.
Is there a way I can import just specific tables on this site?? I'd like both the 'east' and 'west' tables.

I have been using the attached to pull multiple csv files into seperate sheets. This takes all files from a user specified directory and dumps them into a workbook. I only need three specific files. How do I request specific files instead of a wild card.

import data from a website that requires a login/password (no login page, it pops up in a separate window like when trying to log onto an FTP).
I've got the login/password, and it's a simple call to the page to import it, but each time it asks me to authenticate when connecting (get the "Windows Security" popup asking me to authenticate).
Even when I select "Remember my credentials", it doesn't seem to, and so every time I end up having to manually hit enter to get by it.
Is there any way to pass the login/password information via VBA, or to get the "remember my credentials" to stick?

Is there any way to have a web query stay connected and get live data from a site while still being able to use excel at the same time?
Basically the site has information that changes by the second and i need to keep a running record of it, and when it hits the variables needed i want to be able to trigger a set of code.

We have a list of around 800 clients containing client id, name and e-mail and i need to add contract number. I can only get the contract number by accessing the admin (password-protected) using a URL that looks like this admin/index.php?client=id.
Problems:
1. if i use the From Web option in excel's data tab, i get the entire table not just the needed cell
2. if i get the data using the above mentioned option, i can only do it from one client at a time

I have a spreadsheet where raw data is entered ("RAW_DATA") for each month it is collected. There are 7 questions that are tallied and each of those responses are transfered to a separate data table for analysis (7 individual tabs within the spreadsheet). I'm currently manually data entering the values from the raw data tab to the other seven tabs.
I would like to have VBA code that could transfer the data from one month ("RAW_DATA") onto the other 7 tabs based on the date and facility identified in the raw data tab. I have not attempted the VBA since I do not know where to start with searching on two variables.

No, this is not about ScreenUpdating = True/False
Neither is it because you've turned SU off, and then used 'Select' or 'DoEvents' etc in your code.
When running an update for a QueryTable (once a second), 3 'buttons' (activeX image controls with code behind them) flicker - though I see no reference to selecting and/or screenupdating in my code
Is this purely something about refreshing a querytable that I can't fix?
Is there a subclass or API call I can intercept to stop drawing the images alone?
Code:
Public Sub ActivateConn()
Dim strFilespec As String
Dim strConn As String
Dim sqlStr As String
Set RecSet = New ADODB.Recordset
[Code] .....
In short, there's no REASON why I couldn't just use the selection_change event to fire the same macros as the buttons but... well... it doesn't look anywhere near as good (I have a thing about making VB apps look as good as the code behind them is smart)

When using
VB :ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add
How would you get the code to overwrite whatever is in the worksheet as opposed to adding new columns?

I am currently working on a project that uses Excel to parse a .txt document. Its working quite well for me. It functions by having two worksheets. In the first worksheet I use the " import external data" menu to import my .txt file. In another worksheet I have set up fields that show only the important information from the .txt file and leave the junk behind.
I’m looking to improve the functionality of this by adding a button to automatically clear the data in the first worksheet so that new data can be added quickly.
I have searched the forum and found a couple of threads on "QueryTables". After reading up on those, I have made a simple button with the following code.
Sheets("Sheet1"). Cells.Clear
Sheets("Sheet1").QueryTables.Item(1).Delete
After I load a .txt file and parse it using the formulas set up, I copy my needed information and then press this button. The cells clear, and the QueryTables are "reset" (maybe not the right word). Now a different .txt file can be imported and the process starts again.
The problem I am having is that. If there is no "QueryTables.Item(1)" to delete, I get a run time error. (Run-time error '9': Subscript out of range).
Would anyone know how to make my button conditional to having a "QueryTable" active? I.E. If I press it when there is no data loaded it doesn't do anything or give me that error.

I'm trying to query a web site and export the data to a single sheet in Excel. I've used the record macro function in Excel (2007) and come up with the following but I want to query over 20 pages from this site and wondered if there was any way in looping this macro to do the hard work for me;
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;http://www.futwiz.com/en/players", Destination:=Range("$A$1"))
.Name = "players_1"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
[Code] ........
On the second page the URL changes to;
URL;FIFA 14 Ultimate Team Players - FUTWIZ
and the .Name field changes to;
.Name = "players?page=1_1"
and on the 3rd page I get;
URL;FIFA 14 Ultimate Team Players - FUTWIZ
and..
.Name = "players?page=2"

I am wanting to use Excel to perform a web query into an online database our company uses. One of the columns I am wanting to import contains numbers that are 20 digits long & they begin with 4 zero's. The problem is that when Excel imports the query, if I fprmat the cells & preserve the formatting, it cuts off the first 4 zero's & replaces the last number with a zero. Basically, it looks as if it is only importing 15 numbers. Is there a way around this ; is there a way to force Excel to import all 20 numbers? If I don't format the cells, it imports in the following format - 4.20017E+15

I don't have Excel 2013 so unfortunately I can't easily create relational data in Excel 2010. I'm looking for a solution to a design problem. I'd like to have 2 tables which I can join with Microsoft Query and run pivot table reports.
My department processes payments, both for internal clients and external clients. My Payments table looks like:
Date | Type (internal/external) | Operation (what type of payment) | Method (internet, mail, etc) | Quantity
Additionally, I have a table for Mail Opening, which looks like:
Date | Employee | Operation | Quantity
My overlapping fields are Date and Operation. Using each table individually, I can get nice pivot table reports. What I'd like to do though is be able to not just see what operations and methods were run each day with what quantities, but also to compare that to how much mail was opened. Employee and Operation is a multi-multi relationship, so when I join by date, I end up getting incorrect numbers because of problems with the data layout. I'm open to changing my data structure, as I know the way it's set up right now isn't great, but I'm having a mental block on how to redesign it. I attached a sample workbook.

I've tried to remove connections after saves and have been unsuccessful.
HTML Code:
' Delete Additional Connections
' If ActiveWorkbook.Connections.Count > 0 Then
' For i = 1 To ActiveWorkbook.Connections.Count
' ActiveWorkbook.Connections.Item(1).Delete
' Next i
' Else
' MsgBox ActiveWorkbook.Connections.Count
'
' End If
HTML Code:
' Remove named ranges
For Each nm In ActiveWorkbook.Names
nm.Delete
Next nm
I've tried both of these and the Excel file is still attached with XML to the query table. I get an error message saying the format is different then if you click okay it shows its connected to the database still. Is there an aggressive command that will severe all connections before saving? What commands to run to stop this connection after save to another workbook?

I'm trying to create some vba code that will go into other .xlsx documents, pull all cells with a value in the first 30 columns and then return them as a table. Basically each work crew has a .xlsx spreadsheet containing their schedule and I am trying to bring them all together into one nice little package. If I go to import from external sources then click XML data, navigate to the folder they are in and them click show all files and pick my spreadsheet it imports nicely. Then I go to the next blank cell in column "A" and repeat for the 4 crews. Now I can filter by each crew but all 4 are visible on a single page as a table. I recorded a macro that shows everything I did, but it is not dynamic (the .xlsx source files name changes based on the month) I'm running XP sp3 with Excel 2010
Here is a copy of what I have
Code:
With ActiveSheet.ListObjects.Add(SourceType:=0, Source:=Array( _
"OLEDB;Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Password="""";User ID=Admin;Data Source=C:Documents and SettingsUSERNAMEDesktopSCHEDULE STUF" _
, _
"FAcrewCurrent.xlsx;Mode=Share Deny Write;Extended Properties=""HDR=YES;"";Jet OLEDB:System database="""";Jet OLEDB:Registry Path=""""" _
, _
";Jet OLEDB:Database Password="""";Jet OLEDB:Engine Type=37;Jet OLEDB:Database Locking Mode=0;Jet OLEDB:Global Partial Bulk Ops=2;J" _
, _
"et OLEDB:Global Bulk Transactions=1;Jet OLEDB:New Database Password="""";Jet OLEDB:Create System Database=False;Jet OLEDB:Encrypt " _
[code].....
Is there a better or simpler way to do this? The tables don't need to be forever linked to their previous spreadsheets so if copy/pasting is a better way than I am all for that as well.

I am auto-importing statistics from the web via web query. This information imported has a number in the form of a decimal stated as either x.1, or x.2. x.1 represents x-1/3 (one-third) and x.2 represents x-2/3 (two-thirds). I need to use these numbers in a calculation after importing them, but using x.1 or x.2 obviously does not give me accurate results as the numbers should actually be x.3333333 and x.6666666 respectively. What is the easiest way to convert the imported numbers to their actual decimals?...

I am trying to take multiple tables from a Word document and import them into an Excel worksheet. Currently I have found two versions that when combined, could yield what I am looking for. The first one imports the table's data from Word, but does not maintain formatting of the table (font, colors, rows/columns etc.):
The next code maintains formatting, but only imports/pastes one table:
[Code] .........
For the second one, I do not like the fact that it is calling a specific Workbook to paste into. If I could somehow maintain the ability to import/past multiple tables while keeping formatting that would be perfect. An extra bonus would be to import each table within the Word document into individual Worksheets in Excel. I am also using Office 2010.

I'm fine with Web queries generally (I'm using these for returning options pricing data) and have set up the query with code to loop through the options I want the prices on, go get them, and format the data usefully on my side. No problem there.
To get a web query to work (I understand) it needs the exact web address to go to
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=AMZN
That's pretty easy. However the page I'm trying to source data from doesn't change at all: it's https://us.etrade.com/e/t/invest/quotesandresearch
I can't see how to now 1. enter the symbol (e.g AA), 2. choose a dropdown option (i.e Greeks) 3. choose a second dropdown option (i.e All Strike Prices) and get the data from the table.

i have a question regarding the import of csv-files. I've seen lots of working import-functions/macros but none of them. So here are my questions:
1) is it possible to import data from a csv-file into specific cells in my worksheet? Let's assume i have a csv-file with 10 INT-Values and they all should be placed in different rows/colums with no regular pattern.
2) If the answer of "1)" equals "yes": how is it possible?
(i thought about importing the csv in an so called "helper-worksheet" and use formula/references inside the table, but to be honest: That's not the solution i like to have)

I have working code to copy the matching records of an Access table into an Excel worksheet, but now I am trying to modify this code so that I can select a couple of specific fields from the table instead of just copying all of the fields (there are 15 fields in the table, but I only actually need 4 of them for this particular report).
Here is the code I am currently using to copy all of the fields over with the matching records:
Const myDB = "DSD Errors DB tester.mdb"
Private Sub CommandButton4_Click()
' Test Field Select button
Dim cnn As ADODB.Connection
Dim rst As ADODB.Recordset
Dim sSQL As String
sSQL = "SELECT * FROM DSD_Invoice_Requests WHERE `Paid?` IS NULL"
How can I modify this so that I put specific fields from the table into columns in Excel that will not line up with the layout of the table? For the sake of the example, let's say that I need fields 2, 4, 6, and 8 of the table to go into columns 1, 2, 3, and 4 in Excel.

I can't figure out how to delete the attached files that are irrelevant and I can't figure out how to upload new ones. I also don't know how to word what I need to happen
I want the data from everything, starting from row 5 and going to row 100, and not include column B or E.
How do I grab just that data? I have different formulas in each document. This is for invoicing, so the columns with the $ numbers can't be changed and I haven't been able to figure out how to not overwrite them when importing another spreadsheet.

I have a .txt file (comma separated) that updates daily, which I need to import into Excel. The .txt file contains data from many years, but I only need the data from 2012. Is there a way to only import rows where the data in column "yearID" equals 2012? Since this is a daily operation, I'd rather not import all the rows and then sort/delete rows every time.

importing some selective data from txt file to excel. Only the following rows I need to pull out from text file into the Excel i.e. Project row, installation row, and two rows immediately below the installation row. This is my logical procedure..
1. Macro look for the rows that contains the word "PROJECT"
2. Open an excel file
3. Pull the row from txt file to this new excel file.
4. Macro look for the rows that contains the word "INSTALLATION"
3. Pull that row with INSTALLATION AS WELL AS Two rows immediately below the INSTALLATION row.

I have an Excel workbook with 2 worksheets in it. One of the worksheets imports a txt file and then the other worksheet displays data that formulas I have written have collected.
I usually import the txt file by running through the many steps with the "import data" option. This is good but I want it to be faster.
I used the macro recorder and ended up with the following code
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"TEXT;\DesktopImport FolderTest.txt" _
, Destination:= Range("A1"))
.Name = "Test"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
