But is there a way to copy files from/to servers?
Is there a way to look at a cell's own value and then format it accordingly using VB?
I have a cell whose value changes based on DDE link to live price data.
Cell is "Q5".
When the new value is greater than the old value - i want to format the pattern color of the cell.
When the new value is less than the old value - i want to format the pattern color of the cell.
Does anyone know how to do this please or is there a way to do this using spreadsheet formulas as oppose to VB?
Assume the following list of addresses are all in separate cells of a single column (A1-A4). I just need the formula to extract the street addresses, and then a separate formula to extract the zip codes.

Right now when I send/receive an HTTP request, I have the text displaying in a MSG Box. I want to just have the text inserted into cell A1 instead. I know I have to alter MsgBox MyRequest.ResponseText, but anything Ive altered it to, doesn't seem to work.
Code:
Sub http()
Dim MyRequest As Object
Set MyRequest = CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1")
MyRequest.Open "GET", _
"Google"
' Send Request.
MyRequest.Send
'And we get this response
MsgBox MyRequest.ResponseText
End Sub
I'm trying to build a hyperlink using text formulas in Excel but I get the following error message: "Unable to open [link]. The internet site reports that the item you requested could not be found. (HTTP/1.0 404)". The strange thing is that if I copy-paste the link in the web browser, the page opens normally (which proves the link is correct).

View 6 Replies View RelatedI would like to, using VBA, assign a hyperlink to an excel cell that links to another worksheet within the same workbook. I've tried the forums, and combined with a previous post and MS Excel Help File, I've come up with the following attempt:
With Worksheets("Test Destination")
.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=.Cells(counter + 4, 5), Address:=strHyper2, _
TextToDisplay:=(#1/1/2007# + counter)
End With
strHyper2 is previously defined: strHyper2 = "[WeatherTester.xls]1!A1"
My spreadsheet file is "WeatherTester.xls", my worksheet is "1", and "A1" is the desired link location for the cursor. Counter is an integer. I get the error "Invalid procedure call or argument". I also tried to enter a hyperlink directly through the formula property, but Excel didn't like the single quotations I had to use within the HYPERLINK function. The hyperlink formula works in the following form: =HYPERLINK("[WeatherTester.xls]1!A1","1 Jan")
Our state carries a 4% sales tax on all items except food and prescriptions.
Our county carries a 3% sales tax on everything.
Attached on my work sheet:
Column "C" determines if an item is either food or non-food.
"G5" is the subtotal of column G
"G4" is the S/tx on "G5" at 3%
"G3" is the S/tx on "G5" at 4%.
"G2" is the gross pay out.
My question is:
I'd like a formula for Cells "G3" and "G4" that can determine which items paid for in column "G" match a "N" or an "NF" in column "C".
If an item in column "G" represents a "F" in column "C", then there should not be anything in cell "G4" If an item in column "G" represents a "NF" in column "C", then there should be a figure in "G3" & "G4".

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am working on a process model, which requires that the same basic procedure be carried out for each unit in the process.
One worksheet is allocated to each unit with data concerning the flow streams being passed from the previous unit and the product being linked to the next unit. Although the same procedure is therefore being followed on each sheet, the input data differs.
I currently have the code to perform the required technical operations and calculations for a single unit. This code is very much dependent on named ranges.
I want to use the same core to perform the routine-operations, but need either unique named ranges on each page or I need a way to define name that is limited to the specific worksheet on which it is located.
For example, I might have an input range for a heater and splitter, with a technical add-in in VBA performing calculations on the input for each unit. How can I use two separate instances of the name "Input" instead of "Input_Heater" and "Input_Splitter"?
The default program for opening JPG files is "Windows picture and fax viewer" which is fine with one of my colleagues.

View 3 Replies View Related30 people in different countries use a sophisticated VBA Excel file on their local PCs, let's call it myexcelfile.xls. This file contains no custom data, as all data is stored in myexcelfile_backup.xls.
The biggest challenge with this set up is that whenever there is a newer release or bugfix of myexcelfile.xls, I need to send it out per email to 30 people and hope they replace it with my updated version.
Note that newer versions can replace older versions without any data loss, as all data is stored in the backup file.
Idea: with tools like WGET or BITSADMIN, I was thinking of creating a batch file, that would simply download the latest version from a FTP server, and replace the older version with the newly downloaded one.
Constraints: I shouldn't be using any software that is not native to Windows 7the files can sit in different folders on these 30 computers, therefore the update mechanism would have to identify the path they are in.the update mechanism would have to close the file first before running the update. Question: What is the best way to go about this? A DOS Batch file? Or another excel file that is just the "updater", meaning, it's only purpose is to download the new file from the web and overwrite the old file?
I have a macros in my spreadsheet when I open it a number in the macros goes up 1 each time the worksheet is opened. I want to put this file on a server that can be accessed by various people. The problem I am getting is every time someone opens it from a different location with a different PC the number starts at 1 again. I want to keep the number going up 1 each time no matter who opens it.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a program operating in excel 2007 that extracts a picture from a URL and puts it into a PPT slide. I now discover that PPT 2007 doesn't allow this.
So my intent now is to download the jpg into a local file and then import into the PPT.
This is from a couple of sites:
[url]
[url]
At the top of the code:
Option Explicit
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
in the excel cell if a URL picture needs to be inserted it starts with the prefix "picture=" then the http address.
This did not work.
So I then copied the code from the websites into a module (changing the destination file and URL to mine of course) and called the procedure and still nothing.

I have an Excel 2003 application that automatically opens and closes a lot of workbooks. When done with a workbook, I close it with: ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
On most users' machines, this works well. On one user's machine, the procedure is still asking: " Do you want to save the changes you made to 'filename'? "
at each workbook close. Considering that a typical run might inspect over 2,000 workbooks, this is a problem for the user. Is there a setting that can override "SaveChanges:=False"?. If so, where would I find it, and how would I programmatically turn it on/off?
I'm working on a spreadsheet that will connect to a firebird DB (Programmed using VBA and ADO intially).. The spreadsheet itself will reside on a server in a shared folder..
When a user opens the file up, I'd like for the spreadsheet to use the servers ODBC connection, and not the client machine.. This way we don't have to install the Firebird ODBC driver on each client workstation..
What is the code to open a URL or local html file with a command button?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a cell (for example, "A1") which is inserted with a WINROS formula to retrieve some data into my spreadsheet. And it is running live at all time.
Actually, I can't think of any formulas to capture the value from cell "A1" to "B1". Because I do not want the value that I captured into cell "B1" running live. I just want the value "B1" fixed after captured.
I have two tables that pull data from two different SQL tables via an ODBC connection and refresh every 5 minutes. The table headers etc are all identical (it is support call information FYI) but what I want to do is display those tables as one as opposed to two seperate tables - can this be done relatively easily and hopefully without the use of VBA? (Unless anyone is willing to provide the code of course!!)
