View 1 RepliesI'm using Excel 2013 on Windows 7.
I have an Excel file which has a macro that sucks in data from a number of separate files (two Excel, a varying number of csv). The macro grabs all the individual files and loads them into one of three worksheets with some formatting, sorting, and structuring on the way. All good so far.
I then need to take two of the worksheets and copy them to a new Workbook which I can send out to some users. So I use the Workbooks.Add method, and use the Selection.Copy on just the data (UsedRange.Rows/Columns.Count to ensure it is only the data) and Selection.PasteSpecial with the xlPasteColumnWidths, xlPasteValues, and xlPasteFormats options to copy the data over. None of the data is filtered. Just straight data.
I would expect the newly added workbook to be smaller than the one with the macros because the one with the macros has two extra sheets that I don't transfer, and the sheets I do transfer are identical.
And that's where it gets weird. The file with the macros and more data is 18.7Mb, but the new one with only two sheets is 24.8Mb. One is .xlsm and the other is .xlsx (because it has no macros).
I've tried opening the new workbook and saving as .xlsm (no material difference to the size) and as .xls (it got even bigger). I've opened the new workbook, gone to the end of the data and deleted all the blank rows and columns, but no effect (because the rows are already empty).
Why would the file with less in it be so much bigger (or bigger at all)?
I have a folder containing 40 single sheet excel workbooks and I would like to automate following tasks:
- Open each excel file (need to open the file so as to update it since it gets the data from another workbook through =formulas)
- Copy paste as values
- Save this as excel html in the same folder as original excel files (keeping the original file name)
- Close (original excel file should not be changed ie formulas should remain in place, only the html file will contain values)
- Since there will always be xHtml files with same name need the macro to replace the excisting file
My abilities with excel are limited to functions, no VBA knowledge other than finding ready codes and pasting them in the module.
Since this routine is to be run almost daily the macro should run all files, instead of one by one.
I just hope that I am not asking too much for excel to handle and I hope that explanation is clear.
I am creating a proposal for a online sales store, i have in column A a list of item names that my buyer liked and wants to run, but i have to send them the pictures for the items which is located in a directory on my drive together with all other items. we have 4 category's of pictures 1 is the main image from this we only have 1 of each item, then we have the S category there we may have up to 3 images s1, s2 and s3 not more then 3 and the same is with the R category and with the M as well. We did created a VBA to copy all images from the list into a new directory with all sub pictures into a new sub dir. and bring back a list of all images not found. But i am having a problem when i run the code if it dosnt find the image looking for (for instanse EAR11-M1 the code stopes there looking for the file even the error checking in the code is set to resume what is wrong with code?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI already have code that I believe is supposed to do what I'm trying to accomplish. However, it doesn't fully work. The Macro is below:
VB:
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:Documents and Settingsplp138DesktopExample 1.xls"
On Error Resume Next
With Workbooks("Example 2.xls")[code]....
Basically, what I'm trying to accomplish is to have a certain range from one file copied, and pasted in the next available (empty) row of another file. While debugging I see that everything is working except for the actual pasting.
I would like to implement specific cell ranges from two specific worksheets each within 33 workbooks (which all have several tabs) into a summary page in a separate workbook.
The cell ranges are going across my spreadsheet in rows and I would like for them to transpose into a columns depending on the data which I have separated by catergory on the summary page. They are all on the same location in each workbook which is separated by country. The cell ranges are E26:P37 and I would like to transpose them and have them put below eachother without overwriting for my format on the summary page, how I can put this together in a macro?
loop and range function to apply in the below code through which I can avoid writing code for all the rows.
I am trying to open excel files located in single folder from files name (along with the path) in single worksheet (Column B and Row 1 to 500).

I am trying copy and paste data from an external file. The steps I am using to get data are as follows:
1. open external file
2. copy desired data from external file (any number of rows & columns)
3. close the external file
4. paste data starting with designated cell.
The code works fine up until the part of the code where I want to paste special (I need to preserve cell formatting). Error is "PasteSpecial method of Range class failed". No sure why code doesn't work at this point.
I have a macro which opens two different hyperlinks in excel. Opened workbooks have are named like 1.asp and 2.asp. Both contains only one spreedsheet. I need to copy these spreedsheets to the Workbook, from which they are opened.
View 4 Replies View RelatedFeedback.xls is the file I want to have my macro run in. By pushing a button to run the macro, it will prompt the user to select where their file is on their computer. This file will have different file names based on the end user. For example sake, I've included CAP.xls.
After the user selects their file, it will prompt them to choose which tab to copy and paste data from. Typically, there will be 30+ tabs on their worksheet. For example sake, I've created 5 tabs on CAP.xls. The tabs in their workbook will be labeled as I have labeled mine, M1 CAP, M2 CAP & M3 CAP. Therefore, it should prompt the user to select which tab to choose from.
After the user selects their tab (M1 CAP, M2 CAP, M3 CAP), the macro should prompt the user to choose which row of information to copy. In CAP.xls, I have a few rows of information to choose from. They all start with FY10A1, FY10A2, FY10A3, but this information could change. Once they select the row, it will copy each of those fields onto the respectively labeled fields on Feedback.xls.
I work for a chicken hatchery. So, a couple preliminary things by way of explanation:
1. The day we place our eggs in the incubators, we fill in an excel file containing a list of all the farms from which those eggs came. This is called the "Egg List" workbook.
2. After 21 days have passed, and the eggs have turned into chicks, we open that original file. We copy cells from one column of that file (the workbook is called the “Egg List”, we copy “Sheet1” cells B7:B50), and paste them into another Workbook called “Chick List.”
My question is this:
Is there a macro I can put into the “Chick List” workbook that will automatically locate that particular “Egg list” workbook file that is 21 days old, and paste the contents of its cells B7:B50 into cells A7:A50 in my “Chick List” Workbook. It is preferable if this can be done without opening the old “Egg list” file. But if this is not possible, I’ll take whatever I can get.
Here is what I have, which works okay as far as finding the file. I bootlegged this from another part of this helpful website. But I cannot figure out the syntax for getting cells B7:B50 from the Egg list to copy into cells A7:A50 of the Chick List.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a current macro that saves each sheet as their own file. The first 10-15 sheets are not really necessary, so I typically delete them once the macro has run. I am looking to add two things to my current code:
1. Add a tab called Start. Make the macro look for 'Start' tab and then just save each sheet to the right of that as its own file.
2. Save each sheet in the macro as just a copy/paste value. They current have a lot of links and it makes each file close to 3MB. That makes it incredibily difficult to paste all in one email.

I'd like to know if it is possible to run a macro in a workbook that will open another workbook (of the users choice) extract data from it, such as columns from its sheets then paste that data into the workbook the macro is running from. The file to be opened will change, so i've found some code that enables the user to select the file to open then open it.
Dim strFile As String
strFile = Application. GetOpenFilename
If strFile <> "False" Then Workbooks.Open strFile
This brings up the standard windows choose file to open box, then opens the selected file. Am I correct in thinking that the Dim here will store the file name I select in the open file box? If so, I'd like to know how to select the workbook using the dim so I can manipulate it from the workbook I'm running the macro in. Incidentally, once the the data has been copied, I'd like the workbook opened with the macro to be closed.
Someone created a macro for me that creates and names worksheets based off of a list on my first worksheet "Summary". I would love to be able to then have the list of titles on Summary sheet be in cell A1 on each of the worksheets that I had created.

The source data is collected using drop-down menus. In moving the data from one workbook to another, the drop-down lists are carried over into the destination cells.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOn the attached worksheet I am selecting items from the "Description" dropdown list on the Invoice worksheet. I then would like to find a way to automatically copy and paste the "Item #" and "Unit Price" found associated with the selected item on the database worksheet "Products".
i.e. I select the product and the spreadsheet fills in the rest of the required info.
I have tried to create a macro which prints the results of each heading in a drop down box. The listfill range is from B2 to B5 and the linked cell is B1. When manually recording the macro, i copy the heading from B2 into B1, the drop down list updates which in turn updates the cells which are linked to that, i then print out the page. The same happens when i copy-paste cells B3, B4, & B5 into B1. I then return finish the macro by copying B2 into B1.
But when i run the macro, the copy paste works but the drown down list doesnt update, therefore it doesnt update my linked cells so i acutally end up printing 5 indentical pages with the same info.
Is there anything i can do to get around this?
Macro listed below:

Range("B2").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("B2").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Selection.Copy
Range("B1").Select

I have a macro that transfers (copy/paste) information from one master file to several other individual files. The macro works, but I would like
to enhance it by have it spit out errors in the process as follows: if cell A42 on file VP1.xls is not equal to Cell C35 on file Masterfile.xls then make cell E2 ERROR and fomat E2 bold-red, otherwise do nothing. The macro should continue regardless, I just want it to spot errors.
I think this is pretty simple is just a matter of inserting an IF formula in the macro which is something i don't know how to do yet.
I'm using =CONCATENATE() to create Html code.
HTML Code:

The code looks good in the cell:
HTML Code:
<img class="alignleft size-medium" title="Image title here" src=
"http://www.mywebsite.com/images/image_name.jpg" alt="Image alt here" />
But when I copy/paste onto a txt file, its adding an extra (unnecessary) Quotation mark (see code below)

I have a sheet which autofilters according to a validation list in cell E2 using the code.
I have then used subtotal arrays to calculate the mean, median, max, min and total count for whichever values the filter shows.
What I want to do next is have a code which will select each possible option from the validation list (triggering the autofilter) and copy and paste the values from each dependent formula into a new sheet.

I have recorded a macro to filter data on sheet 'To Invoice' copy the filtered list, and paste on sheet 'Invoice' in C16.
The code just keeps looping (not looping in a code sense, it just seems to keep flickering the screen like its going over & over) until it locks up 5-10 seconds-ish and then I have to re-start Excel.
The range B2:E22 is not always populated, it could possibly be B2:E2 (one row), I dont know how to copy the exact data so I expanded the range to what I think would capture any eventuality....

I am trying to write a simple macro to copy a drop down list I created in cell O2 and then paste in the same sheet.

I can't find direction on how to tell it every even cell or defining x and then doing x + 1...
