I have just started VBA for the first time in Excel 2007. I have spent 2-3 hours trying to write text to a cell and I do not understand why it is not working. I have reduced the operation to the simplest form that I can find, now using the following
View 3 RepliesI m trying to write a macro which could take the text from a single column row T2 to row T313 and write it to a .txt file. Have the .txt file name created by the text in T4 or I could also put the text to name the file in T1 if you think it would be easier.
Then carry on to the next named sheet and produce another .txt file in exactly the same way until all 15 sheets have been completed. It would also be helpful if prior to starting to write each text files, it could test for any text in cell A2 of the sheet. The first empty A2 cell of a sheet would determine the end of the run, if it was prior to sheet 15 being reached.
I found this thread ,
http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...in-a-cell.html
on the forum site which involves
saving a file by value in a cell.
I want to change the code so that it saves that name by
a cell value + "_BOM"
I am trying to write/print a cell value in a text document but am having problems (I know what the problem IS, just can't find a solution).
Right, so my code is as follows
I have a userform with a checkbox. If the box is checked, I would likke to write "Option One" to cell A1 in Sheet1 when the Close button is clicked. I can't get the code correct for this. The workbook is attached.

Sub GoToHyperLink()
Dim cell As Range
Dim link As Hyperlink
Dim Textline As String
Range("C2:C13").Select
For Each cell In Selection
Selection.Hyperlinks(1).Follow NewWindow:=False
I can not get it to write it to excel.
I'm trying to learn VBA programming (I started some years ago already, but felt it was a bit too difficult for me) and I would like to ask two (perhaps very basic) questions:
1 - Can someone give me a code which does the following : In A1 I have a string : "This is a test." I want it in rewritten in column C1-4 as follows :
C1 This
C2 is
C3 a
C4 test.
2 - A code which does the following : In A1 I have a word : "Testing"
I want it this word as split up in 1 character/cell as follows :
C1 T
C2 e
C3 s
C4 t
C5 i
C6 n
C7 g
I have verified that there is data in the worksheet...but while the text file is created and properly closed, nothing is written to it.
Sub ScoresToDeko() 'writes a text file
Dim Scores As String
Dim CRLF As String
Dim count As Integer
Scores = ""
CRLF = Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)
Are there any examples, instead of having MsgBox, but have a log file created ?
So instead of MsgBox, it might be MsgLog
Is there such a thing in VBA ?
I have a macro that reads the content of the columns in an excel file and writes the content of each cell in the column to a row in a text file. Here is the code I am using:
Public fso As New FileSystemObject
Dim f As Folder
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long
Dim rng As Range
Dim cell As Range
' Generate a set of text files from this excel file
Sub ExcelToText()
'Select the used range of the worksheet
Set rng = ActiveSheet.UsedRange
Set rng = rng.Offset(3, 0)
For i = 1 To rng.Columns.Count
CreateTextFile rng.Columns(i), i
Next i
End Sub
' create text file
Private Sub CreateTextFile(rng As Range, i As Long)
Dim tstream As TextStream
Dim oCell As Range
Dim j As Integer
Dim title As String
Dim filname$
Now my problem is the following: certain rows are merged in the first column of my excel file, such as the following:
050partyId partyIdScheme
member memberScheme
In this case, my macro writes 50 in the first text file, then partyIdmember in the second file and partyIdSchemememberScheme in the third file.
What I want is a white space between the words in my text file, for example: partyId partyIdScheme. How do I modify my macro to do that?
I'm getting an object required error in excel, but don't really understand.
rivate Sub CommandButton1_Click()
free_number = FreeFile()
Filename = app.Path & "/file_write_output.txt"
StringToSave = Cells(1, 1).Value
Open Filename For Output As free_number
Write #free_number, StringToSave
Print #free_number, StringToSave
Close #free_number
End Sub
I have a userform with a textbox that has numbers in it, but when I write them to Excel they are put in the column as text, not as numbers.
[/CODE]Cells(erow,6).Value = txtbox_Amount[CODE]
How can I force it to write the information as numbers?
P.S. My computer won't let me paste into these posts, even when it asks me to allow access to my clipboard. What setting can I change so I can paste my code instead of typing it.
Range("A10").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "write text"
How would the code be written so it does not actually select cell range A10? I have seen this somewhere where text is written but without actualy recording "clicking cell range".
I have created a sheet which gets populated by information but have left out the top row. I want to use the tope row to enter my header fields but was looking to see if there a more effcicent way of doing this.
I am using the following code below but was wondering if there was a way using arrays as variants or ranges to do it more efficiently.
I have a excel sheet with rows and columns. I want to use these values to write a text file.

I need help for reading data from text files and saving it under different columns in the excel file using vba macro.
For example: I have many text files in the following format ....
Attached is the mock excel spreadsheet. I want to read "sam" from the lookup column's long text "sam is good" and then write "4" in the next column. Similarly read "white" from the long text "white is tired" and write "1". And so on,,,,, For more criteria, see box highlighted in yellow,,,,I used VLOOKUP but what am able to make it work only when there is one word "sam" in the lookup column. It returns #NA when the text is "sam is good". It should write nothing if none of the criteria is met and should keep doing until the last cell in the lookup column.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using a code to copy text from a word doc into a spreadsheet. It does it all right, but when it comes to saving, it does not save the open worksheet and prompts me to save as a copy. If I do so, nothing is changed in the original file and the copy file has the information copied from the word file.

In VBA, is it possible to write to a text file, on 1 single line (without carriage return or line feed) the values of a dynamic array? For instance, I have the array:
Dim my(n) As Double 'n is changeable
my(0) = 0
my(1) = 1
my(2) = 2
.....
I want to write to a text file, like this: Write #filename, my(0), my(1), my(2) '..... until my(n) but n is changing
I want them on 1 line, because I use the other direction (up - down) for other things).
I am trying to write the contents of a worksheet to a notepad file. Also, the worksheet has some hidden columns.
Do...Loop failure!
I thought I was being smart and have produced the following
Trying to calculate average successful attempts before failure. Have several hundred data points (1=success, 0=failure). A1:A10 = 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 0
Cell A11 should calculate average attempts between failures for the whole range A1:A10.
No doubt due to a fundamental lack of understanding my SUMPRODUCT formulae (please see attached workbook) is not working.
Can someone be kind enough to point out the error of my ways? I've tried every possible combination (except the right one).
I am struggling with the Worksheet.Opentext code required to open a text file in excel - specifically with the date format.
For example, I have a text file containing Feb08.
When opened manually using space as deliminator it correctly returns 01/02/2008.
However, when I record the same opening action as a macro and then run same macro it returns 08/02/2009, which is incorrect. Try it and see for yourself!
I have a program that creates a userform, but it cannot complete the initialization. The initializer calls the sub below, supplying the relevant worksheet, category header, and combobox tag for the form. So far, it will find the header of interest on the worksheet. I want it to load all the cell data in the target header column into the form's combobox. The sub, however, has an issue with the line highlighted in red. I think it has to do with the way the combobox tag is referenced in the line, but I don't know how to fix it.

2. I'm trying to create a dynamic chart - following instructions from the numerous other threads on the topic
3. When I try to use a dynamic named range in the "Select Data Source" box, it creates a fatal error and the program shuts down.
My file has 8 sheets with identical linked drop-down boxes at the top. Sheet1 has a graph that needs to be sorted from top to bottom each time a drop-down box from any of the sheets is adjusted. Using tips from this site, my macro moves to Sheet1, sorts, and then returns to whichever sheet I start at.
This works if the first drop-down box I adjust is from Sheet1. If the first drop-down box I adjust is from any other sheet I get "Run-time error '1004': Sort Method of Range Class Failed." Basically I get an error unless I use a Sheet1 drop-down box first. After using a Sheet1 drop-down box, all sheets work without error. How can I fix this error? Below is my macro................
In applications I make in Excel I often make use of ComboBoxes to select a unique value.
Prior to Excel-2007 this was a complicated and time consuming loop construction that had problems with larger files. So I was happy to find the “Remove Duplicates” function in Excel-2007 and tried to use that.
Process:
- Select column of data. (In my example column F)
- Copy to other sheet (DROP LISTS)
- Apply Remove Duplicates function.
- Sort alphabetically.
- Establish length of list.
- Set that range as Row Source of the ComboBox.
So far so good but there are three problems: ...
I have a log that I use to keep track of my hours where the days hours and charge numbers get summed and moved to a new sheet via a command button. One of the categories is week ending date. I want the week ending date cells to merge if they match and cannot get the range I want to highlight. I can move the data, find and define the first and last cells in the range, but can't get the range.select command to work. I think it is just a syntax error, as I am new to VBA.
I can open a Locals window and watch it assign values to myFirstCell and myLastCell of "$A$36" and "$A$44" respectively, but I get an error on either the set range= or range.select lines.
My code is as follows:
Private Sub Post_Hours_To_Log_Click()
'Posts the day's hours to the hours tracker.
Dim myFirstCell, myLastCell As Variant
Dim myRange As Variant
***Removed N/A code that goes to another sheet and decides which data to copy***
Application.Goto reference:=Worksheets("Hours Log").Range("A2"), _
Scroll:=False
Round Result Used As Vlookup Lookup_value Does Work For 6% in attached spreadsheet. I am an experienced user of Excel and have never come across something I could not solve before but this has stumped me. The issue is now sorted using different formulas but I do not know why the attached has #N/A errors in the Yellow highlighted cells.
