List Directory Files And Make Hyperlinks To Them
Dec 3, 2006
I would like to list all files in a directory (display the full path) and make hyperlinks to all listed files at the same time.
I came accross the code below which works well for files in a directory:
Sub HyperlinksToDirectory()
' puts hyperlinks to each of the files in a directory of your choice
' into the active sheet starting at the active cell
Dim stDir As String
Dim stFile As String
Dim R As Range
Set R = ActiveCell
stDir = InputBox("Directory?", , Default:=CurDir())
stFile = Dir(stDir & "*.*")
Do Until stFile = ""
R.Hyperlinks.Add R, stDir & "" & stFile, , , stFile
Set R = R.Offset(1)
stFile = Dir()
Loop
R.CurrentRegion.Sort key1:=R, order1:=xlAscending, header:=xlNo
End Sub

The script collects all the files in directory and sub-directories and list them in ascending format, I want them to get in transpose format. like for example: Root folder has many sub directories and in them a sub directory XYZ has 5 excel files, it will get the sub directory name in Col A and transpose all .xls files.
Col A | Col B________|Col C_________ |Col D___________|Col E________|
XYZ__|C:/root/test.xls|C:/root/Sales.xls |C:/root/Report.xls |C:/root/sam.xls|

I have created a spreadsheet with VBA code that lists the files in a directory. The code is as follows:
ListFiles = True
Set Sh = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(sFileSheet)
lstAttr = vbNormal + vbReadOnly + vbHidden
lstAttr = lstAttr + vbSystem + vbDirectory
lstAttr = lstAttr + vbArchive
If sDirectory = "" Then
If iColumn = 1 Then
sPath = "C:PensionDataPensionPath" ' Set the path, must end with backslash
Else
sPath = "C:PensionDataWorkBench" ' Set the path, must end with backslash
End If
Else
If Right(sDirectory, 1) <> "" Then
sPath = sDirectory & ""
Else
sPath = sDirectory
End If
End If
sFileName = Dir(sPath, lstAttr) ' Retrieve the first entry.
lDataRow = 1
lRows = 1
This works on my PC and it works on other PCs. However, the one PC that it should and must work on, it does not. There is no file listing created.
I have duplicated the files and the folders on my PC and the files in the directories are listed. However, on that one PC, there is no file listing.

Is it possible to create a VBA script that will list the filenames of files in a set directory? I have about 100 directories, each containing 1000 files and they need to go into an excel spreadsheet (each file on a new row)so they can be audited... ;(

This code is supposed to open a series of files through a list of hyperlinks, run a macro then save and close. But at the minute it says it cannot find the Macro and error's.
The macro is in each file named and is named 'RefreshStats', if I open a file seperately I can run the macro fine, but it can't find it through this looping code.
Another thing I found though, is that if I put a blank Module in the main workbook (that contains the list) and call this macro 'RefreshStats' the looping works fine but based on the blank macro. So this code seems to want to look in the workbook its in for the macro.

I wish to create a macro that looks in a specific directory "D:Records" . It finds the files which are modified after a date "January 01, 2012" in this directory (pdf files). Then it imports these files names into a worksheet.

In my search I found several example similar to what I need, but nothing I could adapt to filt my needs, (at least not wim my limited skills).
Here what I need to do:
I have multilple Excel files in a directory. (M:/Archived PO Responses/Domestic). On a daily basis, these files are processed via VBA, and deleted after processing. What I need to do is, prior to processing and deleting these files, create an ongoing log of the filenames in that directory.
Example:
The macro would open an Excel file named "Processed Orders.xls", which is stored on the network drive "M:". It would then append all of the filenames in the directory mentioned above to a sheet named "Processed Orders" in that workbook, below any filenames that already exist.

I currently have a macro working where I can populate the A Column with files from a directory and based on its file extension, however I am having problems trying to populate the second (B) column with that files date modified. I have searched the forum to no avail and I must admit I not the best with vba.
Sub INP_files()

Dim rngOut As Range
Dim strPath As String
Dim strfile As String

I wrote the following routine to loop files in folder. I have 4 .xls files in my test folder. This code is only grabbing 1 then exiting. I have used the Dir() loop before with no problems.
Code:
Private Sub GetDataMultipleFiles(ByVal importExt As String, ByVal xFileNum As Integer, ByVal importLoc As String)
Dim Sep As String, myFile As String
Sep = Application.PathSeparator
myFile = Dir(importLoc & Sep & "*" & importExt & "*")
Do While Len(myFile) > 0

Lots of XLS files in a directory (C: emp). Each book has only a sheet1 with the data.
I have another workbook that i need to use to overwrite certain values in one column from each book.
The workbook I have has a column A and B, ID and value.
In each file inside the directory, A3 to last row used in A had each ID. If the id matches to an id in the workbook with the new values, I want to take the value from B in the override table and put it in C in the file. Look at each ID in each file against each ID in the override, replace and close.

I have the following
Sub test()
Set fs = Application.FileSearch
With fs
.LookIn = "\directory"
.Filename = "3000333"
If .Execute > 0 Then
MsgBox "There were " & .FoundFiles.Count & _
" file(s) found."
For i = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
MsgBox .FoundFiles(i)
Next i
Else
MsgBox "There were no files found."
End If
End With
End Sub
It looks into a specific directory, and tells me how many files beginning with 3000333 there are in that folder. I have over a thousand files in the folder, 13 of which begins with 3000333. However, according to this code, it only finds 10. After searching for various different strings, I've found out that it doesn't search for any file that has a modified date later than 6/2/2006. However, if i just use .Filename = "3000333" , that is, search for all the files in the directory, I get all the files, even those that were modified later than 6/2/2006 that I could not previously find.

I've a master sheet called records. It consolidates all the data from various worksheets. Overtime, the lists gets very long. So I'm proposing this. I want a macro which - Shift all the data yearly into a new directory at
G:MMTPMVarious StockArchive. When it saves at this directory it should bear the year as the folder name. The dates are retrieved from column H. - it should be operated at the every end of the year.

The title pretty much sums it up, actually. I have a macro, and a beautiful piece of work it is. It selects a particular selection of the active workbook, parses it in a particularly thrilling way, and writes the result to a text file. I'd like it to do this for ALL the files in a particular directory (somewhere over 500 files, if that matters).

I have a list of file names sans extension in column A. I want to search a folder I specify and if file is found create a hyperlink to said file either in a new cell or in column A.
The code I have does the search fine, but its hyperlinking is offset and I can’t get it to match the link to the file name.
Also it breaks if it can not find the file.
Here is the code...

I am having a bit of trouble with a bit of code. I have a bunch of code that I want to run on all excel files that live one level down from my main directory.
I have a general directory (orders) which contains a variable amount of subfolders each month (in picture below, 'Dan', 'Frank', 'Steve'), and I would like to look through all the excel files in 'Dan', 'Frank', 'Steve', but not in the main directory (orders), or any subdirectories within 'Dan', 'Frank', 'Steve'.
I am able to loop through all the excel files in the subdirectories individually if I hardcode the directory names, but as they are variable,

I'm using a piece of code I found here on Ozgrid to create a list of files in a specific folder. And even though this worked fine for me a week ago, now when I run this same macro, the. zip files are left out of the list, even though I'm specifying msoFileTypeAllFiles. Archive files with other extensions, such as .tar.gz, do make the list. I get the feeling that my zip files are being considered folders instead of files. Do you have any idea why this is happening, or what to do to get that list of zip files?
Sub HyperlinkXLSFiles()
Dim lCount As Long
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
On Error Resume Next
With Application.FileSearch

'Change path to suit
.LookIn = "o:DataFeeds"
.FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles.....................

My text files look like this(each has different number of rows):
2006-08-25 13:33:20 82,8 g
2006-08-25 13:34:10 58,5 g
between each column there is Tab
To import them from one directory (directories are named as month e.g. 8) I used:
Sub Consolidate()
Dim mnthNum As Integer
Dim myBook As Workbook
Dim myRows As Long
With Application
.DisplayAlerts = False
.EnableEvents = False
. ScreenUpdating = False
End With
and it works almost perfectly.. the problem is that each time it loads next file it overwrites the previous..
e.g. if i have in my directory 4 files and sum of the rows is 20 it will show only 17. The import is good because I checked it with debugger but each time a new file is copied it starts from last row of previous file.. that's the problem I can't solve...

1. Follow a hyperlink to an Excel file saved in a SharePoint type enviroment
2. Save the file to my laptop directory My Documents.
Below is the code I have written. The code is following the hyperlink and saving a file but is the focus file is incorrect.
Here is what happens:
1. Open up MacroFile and run macro
2. Hyperlinked file LinkedFile_1.xls is opened
3. File NewFile_1 is saved but contains the info from MacroFile
4. Hyperlinked file LinkedFile_2.xls is opened
5. File NewFile_2 is saved but contains the info from LinkedFile_1
6. Hyperlinked file LinkedFile_3.xls is opened
7. File NewFile_3 is saved but contains the info from LinkedFile_2
The files created are named correctly but have the wrong data in them. I need to know how to control which file is considered ActiveWorkbook.

is it possible if I have a directory like the following
[Code].....
with .csv files which are placed in arithmetic order 01,02,03 etc to determine if one .csv file is missing and print an error that this file is missing? I think that if I knew how many files I got I would create an array and check one by one the files.. But in case I have a dynamic directory and the number of files is not the same all the time , is this possible?
