Extracting Information From A Workbook And Saving Into A Separate Workbook
Feb 21, 2014
i have a workbook blank template for my colleagues to fill in, they fill in this blank template and save it under the serial number of the item they are creating. However a lot of errors exist when they input the serial number inside the workbook where the serial number is a duplicate of a former serial number.
Anyhow i was wondering is there any way when they input the serial number into the worksheet that i could get it to save in a separate workbook and then have conditional formatting to check those serial numbers in the workbook to see if they match?
is it possible to place sheet names beside the data? What I mean is that, I'm currently working on a report which extracts data from the current workbook (many sheets) and paste it into a new workbook. As there would be duplicates due to many different sheets. I would like to have the duplicates removed but have the sheets name which they are found in the columns beside.
Trying to create a new workbook from another open workbook, then copying all the sheets that aren't called "Summary" to that new open workbook and then saving it. I get a subscript error on this line:
I m not able to use the standard Excel Paste Special function when I copied a range of cells in another Excel workbook opened in a separate instance of Excel. Instead, Paste Special thinks that I have copied some non-Excel objects and gave me the Paste As options. This is not the case if I open both workbook within the same instance of Excel. Could you share with us if there is a trick to trigger the normal Paste Special options in such situations (without having to invoke Macro procedures)?
In order to do the tests, I'm using 2 simplified workbooks (test_copy and test_paste).
What I'd like to be able to do, once I click a button UPLOAD (creating the button isn't the problem), is to go to the first cell from workbook test_copy, check if that code is already on test_paste and if not add it to the bottom of the list, repeating the same cycle for each code on the workbook test_copy.
The orders of the codes might change on both workbooks differently depending on the way the columns are sorted. That is why I believe that for each code in test_copy I need to check the entire column in test_paste to check if the code already exists.
At the end of the routine, on the example below, we would have the codes 2670, 2676 and 2626 added to the end of the list on test_paste.
I have been tasked with creating a macro which creates a new workbook wherein each sheet contains the information for one site from the active sheet. The active sheet already has the values sorted by the site such that all information needing to be copied from the active sheet into the new workbook is together.
I.E.
ATL ATL ATL ATL CEN CEN JCK JCK etc.
There are 8 different sites on the active sheet: ATL, CEN, DAL, HAR, JAS, JCK, VIS, NOV
The macro needs to find the range for all of the data of each site and copy/paste that data into a new workbook such that ATL would have its own sheet, CEN would have its own sheet, and so on. The data ranges from A:R.
So, for example, the macro would find that the last row with ATL in the "B" column is 6095 and would then copy A2:R6095 and insert that data into the new workbook under Sheet 1.
I had some code that I had adapted to select the range for each of them, but the code loops through the entire sheet (which is 44,307 rows long) for each site making it a quite clunky and very slow step in an even longer macro. Since the data is already sorted, I know there must be a way to have the macro stop searching when it reaches data not equal to the data the row before, however, my experience with VBA is limited, and I have been unable to find a solution. Also, the data does not have to be conserved after being sent to the new workbook, if that would speed up the macro.
I will shortly be running a project over a twenty four hour period, where a group of people will be inputting data into a workbook (one worksheet per hour), and what I would like to know is if it is possible, to input some coding into a thisWorkbook module to action a save on the workbook every time an entry is placed in column A (of each worksheet) which is divisable by 10 (a10, a20, a30 etc).
I have 10 very large workbooks that are all setup in the same format. In column Z is a numerical value from 1 to 83. I have been trying to filter the sheet and then copy one at a time from 1 to 83 but that takes a LONG time especially when there is 10 workbooks to do.
Is there anyway I can run a function or macro or something that would just automatically look down the column Z and put each row into a it's own workbooks?
I have attached a sample of what the workbooks look like right now.
I have an Excel doc with ~20 tabs. Each type represents 1 type of activities (soccer, tennis, etc). The size of the file (with the 20 tabs) is pretty significant (>1mb), which jams our email traffic.
Is it possible to: - keep this workbook with the 20 tabs when open by the user; - let the user select and fill in whatever tab he needs (just one at a time); - have a button for the user to click that will save only this tab with a different filename (therefore, when sent by email, the file should be pretty small).
As I've learned to develop Excel apps with vba over the years I've noticed that, if the Excel app starts to get too large (over 1MB) saving it will often cause the application to crash for no apparent reason - the result being that I lose all the vba code I entered before the last save - with the worst case being that, on occasion I have lost all of the vba code in an applications!!!
So, I've learned to back up often using a third-party utility that I use to save my applications, which works wonders in allowing me to save my application without it crashing. The application is called Code Cleaner 97.exe. It was designed around Excel 97 (which I still use) but if possible I'd like to get an updated version for Excel 2003 and Excel 2007, which I also use.
Does anyone know of a more recent version of this utility, or another similar utility that allows large Excel applications to be properly saved, etc?
Code Cleaner 97.exe was a freebie that was available through one of the old Compuserve Excel forums. It was a very popular utility and was suggested as a means to save one's Excel apps without the app getting trashed, etc.
I'm not expecting a freebie solution so I'll gladly pay for something that allows me to save my large Excel apps without them crashing, etc.
Ok, I'm trying to learn how to create and save a new workbook using VBA...having some issues with this error:
Run-time error '1004':
Method 'SaveAs' of object '_Workbook' failed.
The line is highlighted in red.
Code: Sub Copy_ActiveSheet_1() Dim FileExtStr As String Dim FileFormatNum As Long Dim Sourcewb As Workbook Dim Destwb As Workbook Dim TempFilePath As String
I Want A Code That Will Save My Workbook To A Specific File (different Form The One It Is Currently In) Using The Name That I Have Typed In Cell D13 In The Workbook
I am using this code in my ThisWorkbook, but it keeps coming back as an error for
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=ThisFile
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean) 'Saves file as what is in cell "C7" to specified network location - variant below Dim Location, ThisFile As String Location = "\Office-pcpublicCustomers" ThisFile = Range("C7") & Format(Now(), "dd/mm/yy") ThisFile = Location + ThisFile ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=ThisFile End Sub
When the button is pressed, It opens a Mesage Box giving an alert to the User about what is He going to do...if he clik no the macro stops, if the user click yes then it opens an InputBox ....and the name the user writes there will be the name of the new book...
If working good if the user press OK ...my problem comes If the User press CANCEL in the InputBox...The excel try to Save the file as FALSE...and I don´t know how to avoid it.
Here is the code.
Sub Botón1_AlHacerClic()
X = MsgBox("Warning Bla bla ".Are you sure ?", vbYesNo, Title:="IMPORTANTE")
Naa = Application.InputBox("Write the file name Here", "New File Name")
i have a workbook which is mainly use in construction building design... i want users to input ther respective data in that workbook to calculate and design only, but i dont want the user to save the changes they made...
How do I get a shared workbook to automatically save upon every change by each user. The only way I can get this to work (at this point) is to run a macro that updates every 45 seconds IN EACH WORKBOOK! It's counterintuitive because the workbook is shared (on a network), but each user must start the "time" macro in their "individual" SHARED workbook to allow the automatic saving.
What am I missing? There has to be a more efficient way to do this, right?
Code below HTML Sub Time()
Call Save Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:45"), "Time"
I'm wondering if it is possible to prevent a user saving a workbook. If opened as a read-only, excel throws up an option to save with an alternative name. I'm wondering if I can put some code in the Workbook_BeforeSave event that prevents saving of the document unless the application.username is myself.
All I want to do is save a copy of one sheet called "Patient Stock Form", change the name to "Patient Order", and put it into an email. But my code is putting the entire workbook into the email. Here's the code:
VB: Sub EMAILFORM() Dim oApp As Object ' Outlook.Application Dim oEmail As Object ' MailItem
Is it possible to have a userform open in a workbook and when the data from the form is saved, save it to a completely different workbook. If so, will that other workbook need to be open for the userform data to be saved?
I have my Excel workbook open & have made changes. Now I close it and Excel prompts me if I want to save the changes. Is there a way to just close the workbook and automatically accept any changes without have the "Do you want to save changes" message appear?
What about if it is opened in read-only mode? Typically the workbook will not save any changes unless you save it off as another file name. If there is a solution to my question above, can it be enabled only when the workbook is opened in edit mode, or will it not auto-save changes over the file because Excel knows it was opened in read-only mode?
I read two pages on "Workbook_BeforeClose" trying to find a relative answer. I want to able to close a workbook with out saving and not rely on the user pressing the correct button, can this be done?
I am trying to write code which copies the activesheet (called "Data"), opens a new workbook, pastes the data into it and closes the new sheet as "sales 2008" followed by the date. What I have at the moment is:
Need the VBA code to close a workbook, and not save it? I need it to open a workbook, run a macro, and close without saving. The code I have thus far is:
i get an excel file with dynamic data everyday. is there away i can use a macro on this file to store this dynamic data to a specfic closed workbook and add the data onto the old data in that workbook?
I have a need to simply rename a workbook without saving. I have a master template named "IR QT" but, within the workbook, I run a macro that saves the file with content from a cell as the filename. After the 'Save' macro is executed, the sheet stays open, as planned, but obviously the file has been renamed. What I would like to happen at the end of the 'Save' macro is for the sheet to be renamed (not re-saved) to "IR QT". I just need the VBA code to put at the end of the 'Save' macro to do the rename back to "IR QT".
I would like to set up my workbook so that I can save it by the combination of two cell values. The cells are A2 (which displays a country name) and E10 (which displays a string of numbers) and would like to specify the file to where to save the workbook which is:(G:BusUnitsShipping_RecievingInternationalInt'l Order FormsSpecific Orders). The following is a code I have tried that is close but not quite right:
Is it possible to have a userform open in a workbook and when the data from the form is saved, save it to a completely different workbook. If so, will that other workbook need to be open for the userform data to be saved?
I've got a macro set up to copy a range of cells in one workbook, open another existing workbook, and then paste that range. So far so good.
However, I need the macro to also save a copy of that second workbook with a filename that is derived from the original workbook.
To be a bit clearer, let me give an example of how I'd like this to work. Let's say the original workbook is titled Pickle2014-03-14.Raw.xlsm, and I have a second workbook titled UploadFormat.xlsx. I want to run the macro in Pickle2014-03-14.Raw.xlsm, have the data pasted to UploadFormat.xlsx, then save UploadFormat.xlsx with the file name Pickle2014-03-14.Final.xlsx.
