On the website, I enter the sortcode into a field, and it returns the bank who owns that sort code onto the screen as selectable text.
Is it possible, using VBA, to fill in the input field, press the search button, and snag the value returned in the text box?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to web query an online database. One of the columns contains numbers 16 digits long. When Excel imports the query I get the number in exponential format and it replaces the last number with a zero.
Example: The original is 1002002660100027, after query ends up as 1.002E+15 and reformated as text I get 1002002660100020 (Last # changed to a "0")
Is there a way to prevent the query from replacing the last number with a zero when importing from a query? Or.. can I get the query to paste as text?
We want to share an excel sheet online, where we can go to and edit and save it. And possibly link the fields to a dB to build a website from. Anyways what is the best cheapest way of doing this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've also attached an example excel spreadsheet of how I was thinking the first page would lay out.
I work for a company that has multiple properties around my region here. We all deal with similar companies and temporary workers, and what i'd like to do is set up an online document (using google docs?) where we can all go online with our login, search the document, and even add entries, as well as comment and rate on entries already existing. I may be stretching the boundaries of what excel can do, but I really don't want to start diving into programming something.. if it can be done this seems like the easiest way to accomplish this task.
Here's a quick summary of what I'm thinking (and use the attached as a visual example)
the first page will be the only place people will really "look" at. On there it will have searchable areas to load a list of names based on criteria (name/partial name/letter, as well as maybe a drop down or check box of specific standards the company or worker deals with like lighting/audio/video/etc)... In my mind the company or worker could specialize in more than one of these areas.
once you hit the search button, it will populate a list of names based off of that search. Inside of that scrollable box will be the name of the company/worker, and some ratings (it could be stars or even a number percent) - the name itself would be clickable, then next to that would be a button to rate the company/worker, and a button to comment. If you click on rating it would pop up a box to add a percent. that percentage would add a field on another page and the total average rating is what is displayed. If you click on comment, a pop up box would come up and they would be able to add a quick comment on that company or worker. Once they click add on that it would add/append that comment onto another page in the database with the time/date stamp.
In the next section, when you click on a name from the search, that contacts information will pop up in a pre-defined format. Clicking on a different name would replace all of the information with the new contacts information sort of "dynamically" loading the content each time from a separate sheet that has all of that information. Nothing in here will be clickable, just a nice laid out viewport of the information that's been entered for that company or worker with address/phone number/rating/etc.
Then finally in the last section would be a scrollable box that would pop up all of the comments that have been added for that person with a date/time stamp for each comment.
As far as rating system.. i was beating myself up a bit about how to do that, but ultimately not many people would have access to it so I'm not worried about individual hits.. as far as I'm concerned people can rate more than once, it would just add to it and it would average those ratings.

How can I create a vlookup function to automatically retrieve phone numbers off switchboard.com using my current mailing list?
I have a list of more than 4,000 of my customers. I want to ad in phone numbers automatically. I currently have the first and last name in one column. The address, city, state and zip are all each in their own column.
I have never use vlookup before, nor have I ever used excel other than for data entry. What is the easiest and most efficient way to do this?
I searched this site and seen vlookup mentioned for this type of automatic data entry. There may be another way or method I am not aware of.

I have been tasked with streamlining a process to collect data from a specific online website (Web of Science) and import it into an Excel 2010 spreadsheet.
Currently they are going to the website, entering a short number of search parameters and then manually recording the pertinent data from the webpage. They would like to be able to enter a keyword in Excel (which acts as the search item) which then automatically does the rest of the process and provides them with a spreadsheet of the required data.
Is this possible? Perhaps by using Visual Basic code within Excel? I also saw a method that employed SharePoint Server 2010.
I am seeking some code that will check that the PC / Laptop has an online ethernet connection via it's NIC (Network interface card). I want it to output to the spread sheet to a Conditional cell (Connected / unconnected).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm working on an Excel based product. As part of the security process I would like to require the user to enter a product id key into excel. Then the spreadsheet would compare the entered value to some kind of online database to verify the id key is valid. Finally, the spreadsheet would update the online database so that the id key is no longer functional. How easy is this to do?
I know verifying that the id key is valid is fairly simple.
Here is my biggest issue: How to get Excel to update the database and of course what form would this database take. Maybe its a table on a webpage, or google docs. Again the issue is how would I be able to update the table.
have six different locations in a city in which I have 6 beds for people with psyhiatric problems to sleep in.
The managers of the different location send me whenever somebody new comes or somebody leaves the following information:
Name of client
Start date of stay (when new clients arrive)
End date of stay (when client leaves)
I have to keep all record of clients that have used our locations, so the list gets very long during the year and it is then very hard to see which beds are still available.
What I would like to see in a separate sheet is which location still has how many beds available. I then mail this overview weekly to organizations that assign people to my locations.

Im looking to use this code to move the selected rows of a workbook over to a new worksheet in the sameworkbook. It works fine however for some reason it pastes the row over the last row.
how to modify it so it pastes the row on the first empty row?
Sub MoveSelectedRows()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim strSheetName, strCellAddress As String
strSheetName = ActiveSheet.Name
strCellAddress = ActiveCell.Address(False, False)
Rows(ActiveCell.Row).Cut
Sheets("Closed Projects").Select 'Change sheet name to whatever consolidated tab name is.
Range("A" & Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Range("A" & ActiveCell.Row).Select
Sheets(strSheetName).Select
Range(strCellAddress).Select
Rows(ActiveCell.Row).Delete
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Also, as a side note, how do I put a prompt in so that once I press the button to move the row the user is prompted asking if they are sure they want to move the row? 'Are you sure you wish to move row X?' Yes/No.
If yes - run rest of script
If no - abort script
I have a macro that is performing a lot of string comparisons and sorting out a lot of unformatted data using a loops and instr calls and passing results into arrays to store in a database. The macro works flawlessly, however as the macro runs, over time is gets slower and slower until its barely moving 10% as fast as it was to start.
I run the macro in a separate windows session so I can continue working w/o the macro affecting other excel related tasks I work on. I can tell the computer begins to slow down as the macro runs. Is their any way to clear the system memory while the macro is running, maybe every 5 minutes or something?
How can I allow users to either select the SKU from the dropdown menu, or to type in the SKU # in the dropdown menu (C5 through F5) and have it populate the data fields for that SKU when they press the 'Enter' key?
Currently using Data Validation ='KVM Comparison Data'!$B$4:$OP$4 and cell logic to allow the information to be pulled from a hidden tab =INDEX('KVM Comparison Data'!$D$2:$OP$65,MATCH('KVM Product Comparison'!$B6,'KVM Comparison Data'!$A$2:$A$65,0),MATCH('KVM Product Comparison'!C$5,'KVM Comparison Data'!$D$4:$OP$4,0))
In short, I want to keep it the way I have it, but allow users to also have the option of typing in a SKU and pull the data up that way. I know this is possible, I just can't figure out how to do it, while keeping my current solution in place as well.

I've found this calc but it doesn't compare to my particular scenario/goals: http://dinkytown.net/java/InvestmentDebt.html. The major difference is that this dinkytown calc requires a new loan to be put in place and I am not in a position to refinance my current mortgage. My plan is to pay an extra $267 (b3) to the mtg (b4). It will take 128 months (b6) to pay off the mortgage. After that point, I need to calculate what the newly freed capital (b5) would do if I put in an account (i.e. a CD or a simple US savings account) that had an Annual Percentage Yield (APY) of 1, 2, and 3% for 20, 15, 10 and 5 years. I thought that I had the right formula in place for cells b7:b8 should the account earn a 0% rate of return, but I think it's faulty since it gives me a negative number for 10 and 5 year accumulation periods.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet with several freeforms. I would like them to change backgroundcolour, if the content in a cell is equal to another cell.
Basically I would like my shape "Freeform1" to change backgroundcolour to RGB (0, 180, 0) if Sheet1.Range ("A1") = Sheet2.Range("D3").
If it's not the same content in both cells, I would like the freeform to remain unchanged, that's RGB (79, 129, 189).
This should happend automaticly, so I don't have to click the shape to make it happen.
VBA code which can distinguish whether a cell has been edited by:
selecting an option from a data validation list (DVL)
or
manually editing the text in a cell?
The ""Show error alert after invalid data is entered"" option is unticked to allow both selection from the DVL as well as free format text entries.
The problem arises when using the code below which makes an edited cell within a range display the new value as well as the prior value(s). This works well when using the DVL but not when editing the cell.
Is there any code which can distinguish between the 2?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet which I would like to back up online every time it is saved.
I have a sub, OnlineFile(), which I have used many times without any problems, which creates a .BAT file to use ftp to upload files onto our server. As arguments, it takes the local file path that you want to upload (or download to), the name of the file as you would like it stored, the online file path, and whether you want to upload the file onto the server, or download it off the server.
It should be very easy to combine the two: what I tried was:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, cancel As Boolean)
ThisWorkbook.SaveCopyAs ThisWorkbook.Path & "" & "Rubbish.xls"
Call OnlineFile(ThisWorkbook.Path & "" & "Rubbish.xls", "Rubbish.xls", "wwwrootexcelfilesMasters", "Upload")
Kill ThisWorkbook.Path & "" & "Rubbish.xls"
End Sub
Every time I ran this, the file got uploaded correctly, but Excel had a series of problems. Often the code ran fine the first time it was run, but crashed the second time round.
After a fair bit of troubleshooting, I found that the problem came about when the file was trying to save itself - i.e. after the end of the sub. If you pause any macros from running, it still saved fine, but when the code ran, it found errors, froze or closed excel.
My thought at this point was that the code was fragmented or something. I made a new sheet, and retyped just the relevant bits of code (i.e. the BeforeSave sub, the OnlineFile sub and created the form called by OnlineFile). The problem persisted.
I've come up with a workaround for this now (which uses the same OnlineFile sub & form, and works fine), but it's driving me crazy - why does this cause excel to die? Particularly on the second time through? The code seems far too simple to cause such problems - is there a bug in Excel perhaps (I'm using Excel 2000 on Windows XP).
