VBA / Display Screen On Opening Workbook?

May 3, 2013

I have a great bit of code for a spreadsheet I'm working on by a board regular called Norie;

The code is;

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
If ActiveSheet.Name "ThankYou" Then
Worksheets("ThankYou").Visible = xlSheetVisible
Application.Goto Worksheets("ThankYou").Range("A1"), True
Cancel = True
UserForm1.Show

[code]....

When I open the workbook it shows for about 1 second another sheet in the workbook rather than just instantly showing the "START" tab.
Is there any way to get over this to make this code 100% perfect?

I just really would love upon opening this workbook for the sheet that 1st comes into view to be the START SCREEN TAB, without any flash preview of another sheet.

excel help.jpg

Basically it is a training matrix.

basically I need A30, A32, A34 and A36 cells to display the characters they are currently displaying but when i copy and past any of them into a new cell on the matrix for example into cell B11 I want to be able to SUM the total of that column and display it in cell B24

I am ok if i have to link the cells with another worksheet but i have tried doing this also i dont know if i need to use VBA.

Opening Word Doc From Within Excel Using VBA

Aug 22, 2013

I have a database list, and run a bunch of formatting, inserting, formulas etc., to be able to have a Word Mail Merge be able to run against the data when finished. I'm automating the process and want to be able to open the Word document when the Excel piece is done, so the user doesn't have to navigate to the file manually.

Since Excel doesn't seem to automatically 'see' Word docs in the Open File dialog list, my Open File code below is getting an error of "File Format is Not Valid":

ChDir "O:UAIBDCustomer RelationsIDHome Office Indexing"
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"O:UAIBDCustomer RelationsIDHome Office IndexingID Home Office Indexing Mail Merge Template TESTING.docx"

Opening A Text File With Todays Date

Jun 7, 2007

I know that the below code goes some way to opening a text file that I'm importing. The thing is, I want it to do this every day and work out the filename itself.

This should be simple as the filename is based on the date.

With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"TEXT;c:docs oday_06062007.txt", Destination:=Range("A1"))

All I want to do is have the start of the filename: 'C:docs oday_' and add the date in the same format automatically...

Data Lost Opening Text File

Mar 1, 2007

I'm working with a list of different manufacturer part numbers, that must be represented in TEXT format only! The file with manufacturer part numbers exported from ERP system to TXT/CSV formats. When I open it in Excel , manually in "Text Import Wizard" I define Column Data Format as Text.

Examples:
1. part number 3214-4-5 turns to 05/04/3214
2. part number 0005487 turns to 5487
3. part number 223878615654 turns to 2.23879E+11
4. part number 4303.240600 turns to 4303.2406

Is anyway to do it automatically from VBA? I try to record macro , but it does not contain "text format".

Is it possible to open an OpenOffice spreadsheet in Excel while keeping all formulas?

At the minute when I try this, Excel just opens the spreadsheet with the values of each cell from OpenOffice (the results of the formulas) and not the actual formulas themselves.

Excel 2008 :: Opening Asp Files?

Nov 7, 2013

I have Mac 2008 Excel. For my work, I download .asp files and open them in Excel. No problem. The problem is... I'm wanting to use another computer at work that has Mac 2011. When I open the exact same .asp files, they show coding (html?). I can fix this by changing the name of the file extension from ".asp" to ".xls." But I convert these files a lot during the day and this is an extra step I don't want to take. And it works fine in version 2008. So what can I do in version 2011 to make it open the files without all the coding?

Opening TXT Files In Same Excel Sheet

Jul 30, 2014

I would like to be able to open multiple .txt files into one excel document. I had been using a code that opened all the files I wanted into a NEW excel document. I have a template that I use and I want the files to open in sheets following the main template sheet. This is what I have been using:

Sub CombineTextFiles()
Dim FilesToOpen
Dim x As Integer

[Code]...

And it worked just fine for that purpose but how could I edit this?

how I could use VBA to make a table out of data that would be cool too.

I just want to click the drawing number in the excel sheet and get the drawing opened automatically.

Currently what I am doing is searching the index for a particular drawing and then searching the folder for that drawing to open.

Excel Files Opening As Different/new File

Jan 12, 2010

I'm using Excel 2007. I didn't change a single option but for some reason this problem came up. When I open an already saved Excel file it opens up in a newly created file. For example, if I open a file saved as "Monthly Sales" it will open it up and rename it as "Monthly Sales1." When I go to save it again, which would normally just save it where it currently sits, it basically acts as if I hit Save As and pops up the box asking me where I want to save it. This is extremely annoying as most of the places where these files are saved are several folders deep which makes it time consuming every time I open and alter a file. I can't find any options that looks something like this and it only happens in Excel.

Excel No Longer Opening CSV Files Correctly

Feb 7, 2013

All of the sudden, I've started having issues on one PC with Excel opening CSV files.

I work with these files every day and they work on other computers.

The problem is that if the field value starts with a dash, Excel will not show any records before that. Meaning, if there is a record on line 50000 that starts with a dash, it will not show the previous 49000 records.

I can open the file in Notepad++ and find all '- and replace it with ' and it will work fine. But I have hundreds of files.

This just started. I'm using using Office 2010 x64. I'm tempted to get Office 2013 to see if this will resolve it as something has obviously went wrong.

In the past, I would open the CSV files just like any Excel file and NEVER any issues. I would do this with multiple files each day but even the file that I use to not have issues with in the past is now an issue if it has a dash in a field.

path and filename are previously defined objects.

I'm using pdfcreator because the code also has to be used with excel2003 on another pc. The problem is that I get an error (probably for trying to open the newly creating pdf-file).

Excel 2007 :: Add-in Not Loading When Opening File

Jun 10, 2013

I have an excel add-in which is a ribbon which houses a great deal of financial tools that I use on a regular basis so I don't have to hunt around excel for things I use regularly. The add-in has always loaded automatically whenever I opened excel - whether I opened excel by creating a new blank document or by double clicking a previously existing file.

Starting a few days ago though, the add-in only opens when opening excel by creating a new blank file. I can't think of anything that changed recently. Using Excel 2007.

Even when opening a file by double clicking, Excel still says the add-in is active (in excel options).

Excel 2013 :: Opening Large (1-3gb) XML Files

Sep 9, 2013

I received a few 1-3gb xml files from the government and I would like to open them in an Excel format. I have tried opening them using Excel 2013 (both as an xml table and as a read only workbook) with a machine running 8gb RAM and a 3.4 ghz i5 processor. I left it running overnight but Excel continues to "not respond". The file is intended to display thousands of line items with around 40-50 columns of data. For previous (and much smaller) similar files, the saved workbook is a manageable file. The only hurdle here is getting these open.
