I am trying to record macros, however, without success. When I launch Excel, two spreadsheets, PERSONAL and Personal Macro Workbook are launched. However, when I attempt to record a macro in a new spreadsheet, I get an error message, "Personal Macro Workbook in the startup folder must stay open for recording".
Looking in the XLSTART folder, I see two files, as noted above.
I have alot of project folders on my harddrive.
All in format: I:/12345-costumer-projectname/
The five digits are unique for each project.
I make calculations for these projects using an excel file. In this excel I also type the projectnumber (cell J2)
Now i would like to make a button. When pressed, it checks the projectnumber cell J2, looksup the corresponding folder and saves the excelfile in PDF format in this folder.
I have found macro to find files in folders, but none which do the above.
I need a macro in a workbook to look at all the files in the same folder that have "*att*.xls" in the name and determine and copy from the range A15:W515 only the rows that have data in at least columns A, C and D. Each file will vary as to how many rows there will be and there are more than the files with "*att*.xls" in the folder. The data will be on the only worksheet in each file and the worksheet is named "G2WAttendee_xls" the data from all the files need to be copied to the file called "Consolidated webinar reports.xls" (I am using Excel 2003) and to a sheet called "Attendance Data" and added to the end of the last paste.
At the start of the macro the current file "Consolidated webinar report.xls" should be saved to a sub folder of the current directory and have the date saved added to the name. The sub folder is called "Completed reports". The data in the original file on worksheet "Attendance Data" should be deleted.
At the end of the process all the files that have had data copied from them should be moved to the sub folder "Attendance reports consolidated" (This could be done as each file is closed if that is easier).
I have headings in row 1 of the "Attendance Data" worksheet that match the headings in the various files in the folder (which will always be in row 14 of the individual "*att*.xls" files).
The folder with all the files and the "Consolidated webinar report.xls" file is at path "Z:P and S MEvaluationsWebinar series 2012-13TB".
I have up to 50 workbooks in one folder with data in a specific range. I also have one workbook which includes additional data, including conditional formatting and dropdowns. I need to copy the desired range from the first workbook in the source folder to the second workbook, then save the latter to my destination folder, using the same name as the first. I need to repeat this process for all workbooks in the source folder.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel VBA Macro for creating/logging drawing numbers. Each drawing belongs to a job number. Each job number has a folder name containing the job number followed by a description (ie 999999 - bracket assembly) for storing drawing pdf's. The job number is only known as a 6 figure number in the drawing creation process BUT for the PDF saving process it is a string value...as my example above
I have to change my process by pre-creating the Job Number folder, then have the macro look for the appropriate folder by searching the parent folder for a sub folder containing the job number (always the first 6 figures).
I want to insert in my macro some code that searches...
The parent folder for a folder containing the job number. The macro value for the parent folder is P:engineeringdrawings (this never changes). the macro value for the job number is iOpenair (it's an entry that is entered as start the macro). Imagine the value for the job number is "999999"...so the search would be for "999999*.*" The code needs to search the parent folder, find the folder name that begins with a six digit number. Capture the complete name of the folder and store that name as a Dim value that I can call up elsewhere in my macro.
I am creating a document for work that automatically generates hyperlinks to pdf files in a given sub folder. Currently I have a section of code that opens a window to choose the folder location.
Code:
'Prompt user to select a directory
Do
Problem = False
Set ShellApp = CreateObject("Shell.Application"). _
Browseforfolder(0, "Please choose a folder", 0, "c:\")
On Error Resume Next
[Code] ........
What I actually want is to not have the window open, but excel automatically choose the sub folder location.
The directory looks like this
Z:ClientProjectDRAWINGS-2 RECORD COPIESPDF
The xlsm file is stored in the DRAWINGS folder, and I need it to point to the PDF folder.
I have a list of items in an excel sheet... 500 of them... and there are images for them in an other folder... The problem is those images are in 1000's and I only need those 500 images.. Images are saved as "SKU.jpg eg NS2354.jpg and we have an SKU column in excel as well .. SKU and their images have same name...
Is there any solution to pick up only those 500 images from those thousands of images?
Is it possible to save those 500 images in an other folder?
looking for some code to save to a destination
destination address is
C:Documents and SettingsstDesktopOJF
now the problem is OJF has folders named 1 to 500
so if cell d5 = 487 it will need to look in the above desination and then open the folder and save it there.
I would like to create a code that will open all workbooks in folder "A" one at a time and then close the work book after another code is executed. So one workbook will open and while the workbook is open, I will call another code to format the active workbook and then the active workbook will be saved in folder "B" and closed and go to the next workbook in folder "A" to start all over. The folders are saved on the desktop.

For example, say you have the following folder paths:
C:Main FolderSubfolder1Smith,Billy 2413
C:Main FolderSubfolder1Brown,Charlie Ray 2416
C:Main FolderSubfolder1Bunny,B 3619
C:Main FolderSubfolder1Fudd,E-G 1864
What I'm hoping to do is just look for the 4 digit number on the end finding that folder name and opening it up. The name conventions before the 4-digit serial number are quite random. Sometimes it includes their full first name, other times it's just an initial for the first name and other times there are other characters included in the name. The one thing that is constant is the 4 digit serial number on the end.
how I could get the Open dialog box to pop up and have the chosen folder number open?
Is there a way I can from vba cut a file from a folder and put in to another folder? And also create a folder? If yes, how can I do this?

I currently have a number of spreadsheets with number data in it. I need to import it into a third party program. Unfortunately when this program imports it it counts numbers such as 1 as 1.0. This third party program says the only way around this is to put a ' before the numbers and this seems to fix the problem. My problem is that I have so much data I cannot go through ever cell and add a ' to the start. IS there a quick way to add ' to the start of certain cells?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a macro, at the end of which I'd like it to jump to a second macro OR incorporate the second macro into the 1st. I've tried combining them in several different ways, but get an error 13 every time. So, basically, if I can't combine them into 1 macro, then perhaps I can get the 1st to automatically start the second. The 1st code is based on a previous solution (for a different problem!) I received from this forum
Here is the 1st

=IF(E10="","",(E10+$C$8))
I don't want the numbers to be more than 360 when added up. When it reaches 360, I want it to start over from zero. Instead of, say, E10 = 200 and C8 = 200 ... I don't want the answer to be 400, I want it to be 40.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow to sum using variable start and end points?
For example,
Column A is the list of start dates, and Column B is the list of end dates to be used at the variables.
Column C is a list of dates, and Column D is the corresponding temperature data to Column C.
What I would like to do is create a new column (E) that sums the temperature data from Column D based on the start and end dates from Column A and B respectively (these dates to be used to match the dates in Column C).
I have a program that requires the last 8 days to be total, unless there are 2 days off in a row. So my cells need to sum the previous 8, but then stop when two zeros show in the column and then restart following. One zero should continue to total the previous 8 days. As shown below, for 1/10/14 I should see 57.5. The sum needs to restart on 1/13/14 to show a total of 10.5. I have tried multiple formulas with no luck.
Col A Col B
1/5/140
1/6/1412
1/7/1412
1/8/1412
1/9/1411
1/10/1410.5
1/11/140
1/12/140

I have a data which has a start time, end time, Stay Time(End-Start) and # of subjects. I am trying to create a graph, line, bar or histogram which shows how many subjects were there at a specific time. So the horizontal axis would have time from 00:00 to 24:00 and vertical axis would have the total # of subjects or the %.
Start End Subject Stay
01:00 02:00 1 01:00
01:00 01:45 1 00:45
02:00 21:00 1 19:00
03:10 14:10 1 11:00
The data set is huge(27000 rows) and I am using excel to create a graph.
I have tried using line plots and bar charts(stacked) but couldn't. I am not sure if there is an easier way to do it .
I have this column with a value like 04/06/2008. I will want another of the column to auto generate the date for the start of the week like 02/06/2008 which is a Monday.
Need a formula that will generate the ending date of task, adding therefore if needed the number of weekend(s) in between the start and end date to the End date.
Let us say: task is starting in 2008/11/11 the duration of the task is 7 days. So, we should get an End Date= 2008/11/19.
2008 11/11 11/12 11/13 11/14 11/15 11/16 11/17 11/18 11/19

I've seen a lot of timestamp solutions but none of them fit my needs. Also my VBE skills are not good enough to create this. So here's the problem:
I've got 3 columns E,F en H. H contains a validation list with 3 options OK, NOK and OPEN.
If H is NOK I would like E and F to be blank. If H is OPEN I would like E to contain a start date wich doesn't update. If H is OK I would like F to contain an end date wich doesn't update.
I have Sheet 1 with a series of 10 lists. Sheet 2 will display the information on Sheet 1 based on the day. For example, the user will input a start date. Excel should display item 1 in lists 1-10 on day 1 in the respective column. Then item 2 in lists 1-10 on day 2, etc. When it reaches the end of a list it should start at the beginning. Day 1 shold be the start date. Day 2 shold be the next day, etc. I have lists 1-10 all ready to go, but I am having trouble figuring out how to go about populating the other columns.
