View 9 RepliesOn the computers in my office they have a My Documents folder that is in the directory C:Data. There is also a My Documents folder in the usual windows location C:Documents and Settings etc. Is there a function that will give me the path of the folder that is on the desktop? The macro will be run on computers with the folder in different locations which is why I need to look it up.
View 5 Replies View Relatedi have an excel file with over 30 sheets on it. Contained in each sheet is a seperate pivot chart. i am looking for away to navigate around these sheets from the main screen. does anyone have any suggestions or opinions on the best way i can do this? here are my ideas but not sure which would work best
1. Create main sheet at the start and have hyperlinks to all sheets (by doing this how could i navigate back to home page?)
2. Create userform with drop down list of sheet names or search function to search for sheet names and then click on a button to go to sheet? dont know would i be able to do this? will the userform follow to the sheet with the pivot chart so i can select a different one from the same page? how could i hide the userform to view the chart and then bring it back to navigate to another?
I'm looking to create a navigation sheet. Clicking different buttons will switch tabs and take you to the different parts of whichever sheet. Some sheets are several pages long so I thought this would be handy.
I tried using the hyperlink but it doesn't work as expected. It kind of randomly goes there. Ideally, I'd like the top of the page to be at the top of the screen.
If a1=True i want to navigate to a webpage how can this be done?
I needed to create even the simplest of VB Code and i'm struggling to get a macro to navigate around a worksheet.
Here's what I have so far...
Sub Macro2()
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
Selection.ClearContents
Selection.End(xlToRight).Select
Selection.Cut
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
(At this point, I want the cell 2 above the last selected to be highlighted)
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub
when the user selects any cell(s), then hits the command button, I want the code to move the cell(s) selection to the far left i.e. Column "A". I've managed this is a roundabout way, but I'm trying to make a far more elegant version.
Set C = Selection
With C
While Not C.Previous Is Nothing
MsgBox C
Set C = C.Previous
Wend
End With
So C is the selection made my the user, for this example they are just selecting one cell. The MsgBox proves to me the code to moving the cell selection to the left, but the While condition falls as the Previous test condition fails and bombs the macro. I cannot think of another way of doing this. Is there a method that returns X and Y co-ordinates as numbers?
I have 1000 urls to view everyday and identify type of website. Everyday i have to copy that url from excel and paste in browser which consume lot lot time for me. Is it possible to create vba in excel so when i select or move on that url cell (not to click on any click button) url get open in excel only.
This will reduce my work 80%.
Every day I gotta enter information in my work's website (intranet), however I dont know that much about manipulate with VBA the Internet Explorer application, for example once I enter information in the website, I gotta enter an ID after that I gotta select the date, then I gotta give some clicks in some checkboxes, then I copy some information from excel and enter that information in the navigator, and finally click on save. The thing is that I do not have access to that website in my home so is impossible for me to provide you with the link... what kind of codes do I need to do it, or where can I find a manual where I can learn to manipulate another application like the Internet explorer with VBA.

View 9 Replies View Relatedi am trying to make excel open a web page then naviagte to a link. I know how to do this if the link has the same address all the time using
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
With ie
.Visible = True
' Go to web page
.navigate [url]
Do Until .readyState = 4
DoEvents
Loop
but how could I navigate to a link which continually changes.
for example on a web page the link always shows "report", but the actual address may changes say every hour.
Is there a way to navigate to what ever address sits behind "report"
I have not been sucessful in trying to click on the resulted links generated by the result page when submiting the "search button"
how can I click on the below link?
Perhaps if could just get help in how to retreave from the resulting document source the "candidateId=119328867" number generated by the search java script function below.
This is the source of the link from the searched criteria:
******** LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
//Table_Content
var TABLE_CONTENT = [
["","OK03SW145-B ","Brian Van Horn","App","720 Susan Avenue","Ada","OK"]
I was wondering how to create buttons such that when the user clicks on the button they are automatically taken to a different part of the workbook.
I'd like to do this because my spreadsheet is now large enough such that navigating just using the sheet tabs at the bottom is not ideal.
I can create a hyperlink, but I think a button just looks nicer.
I am using Excel 2003 to run a workbook that contains 60 separate worksheets. To make it easier for the techs to navigate the workbook I created a block of 60 autoshapes, (5 blocks high x 12 blocks long) each block hyperlinked to each worksheet and labeled with the worksheet name. I then placed one of these blocks at the top of every worksheet. A tech can click on the block and it takes him right to the page he is looking for, pretty straight forward. It works very well, but as you can guess this is a lot of autoshapes to be stuck in one workbook (3600) and whenever you make major changes to the workbook than the blocks become a factor, and if you resize the columns or add one, or change a worksheet name... I thought about just creating 60 custom buttons and sticking them on a custom tool bar - but I found trying to create a button with a number on it like "34" (for "worksheet 34") was pretty tough in the button editor.
way to create a set of hyperlink buttons that will allow you to quickly navigate through 60 worksheets?
I wanted to create a drop down list where after I make my selection, it will automatically take me to the cell range (same worksheet) assigned to each member in the drop down list.
(E.g. If I select "Accounting" from the drop down menu it will automatically take me to cell A94 - See attachement)
Furthermore, could it be possible that after my selection in the drop down menu, only the specific range (corresponding to my selection) will show up and the rest of rows will just hide?
I have a workbook that contains 30-40 worksheets. Is there a keyboard shortcut or an easier way to move through the worksheets besides using the mouse and clicking the tabs at the bottom?
View 7 Replies View RelatedInsert a drop down list that is attached to a bunch of data to make it easier to navigate through the data.
Therefore, when you chose one item in the list it will populate data in the worksheet for that item in the list and change for each item in the list.
For example, if you have ten people's names in the list when you pick Nancy it will show you information on her and when you pick Scott it will populate with completely different data. The data all coming from one master tab.
I want to assign a macro to a button that will unhide a tab for about 10 seconds, then rehide it and navigate to another tab. How do you do timed commands?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have used VBA in Excel to open IE, browse, capture web pages, etc. for several years. Now with Vista, IE 7, and Excel 2007 they no longer work. The createobject does create an IE window, but when using the .navigate method it opens a secondary window. The IE object is no longer accessible after the navigate is executed.
Example:
Sub GetKBArticles()
Dim IE As Object
Dim sURL As String
Dim i As Integer
IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
IE.Visible = True
This code will take the value of the active cell (which is a filename) and open the corresponding PDF document of the same name.
Sub OpenPDF()
Dim fName As String
Dim fExt As String
Dim fPath As String
Dim fFullPath As String
fName = ActiveCell.Value
fPath = "M:Books"
fExt = ".pdf"
fFullPath = fPath & fName & fExt
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink Address:=fFullPath, NewWindow:=True............
I receive a Weekly list; let’s call it “Doc1” with a load of order numbers in column A. I then have another excel document, lets call it “Doc2” also with order numbers in column B.
Is there a way to see if an order number in Doc1 already exists in Doc2; perhaps change the font colour to red for example (in Doc1 only)? I don’t want to affect Doc2 in any way I am not allowed to alter it at all.
I have alot of project folders on my harddrive.
All in format: I:/12345-costumer-projectname/
The five digits are unique for each project.
I make calculations for these projects using an excel file. In this excel I also type the projectnumber (cell J2)
Now i would like to make a button. When pressed, it checks the projectnumber cell J2, looksup the corresponding folder and saves the excelfile in PDF format in this folder.
I have found macro to find files in folders, but none which do the above.
I need a macro in a workbook to look at all the files in the same folder that have "*att*.xls" in the name and determine and copy from the range A15:W515 only the rows that have data in at least columns A, C and D. Each file will vary as to how many rows there will be and there are more than the files with "*att*.xls" in the folder. The data will be on the only worksheet in each file and the worksheet is named "G2WAttendee_xls" the data from all the files need to be copied to the file called "Consolidated webinar reports.xls" (I am using Excel 2003) and to a sheet called "Attendance Data" and added to the end of the last paste.
At the start of the macro the current file "Consolidated webinar report.xls" should be saved to a sub folder of the current directory and have the date saved added to the name. The sub folder is called "Completed reports". The data in the original file on worksheet "Attendance Data" should be deleted.
At the end of the process all the files that have had data copied from them should be moved to the sub folder "Attendance reports consolidated" (This could be done as each file is closed if that is easier).
I have headings in row 1 of the "Attendance Data" worksheet that match the headings in the various files in the folder (which will always be in row 14 of the individual "*att*.xls" files).
The folder with all the files and the "Consolidated webinar report.xls" file is at path "Z:P and S MEvaluationsWebinar series 2012-13TB".
I have up to 50 workbooks in one folder with data in a specific range. I also have one workbook which includes additional data, including conditional formatting and dropdowns. I need to copy the desired range from the first workbook in the source folder to the second workbook, then save the latter to my destination folder, using the same name as the first. I need to repeat this process for all workbooks in the source folder.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel VBA Macro for creating/logging drawing numbers. Each drawing belongs to a job number. Each job number has a folder name containing the job number followed by a description (ie 999999 - bracket assembly) for storing drawing pdf's. The job number is only known as a 6 figure number in the drawing creation process BUT for the PDF saving process it is a string value...as my example above
I have to change my process by pre-creating the Job Number folder, then have the macro look for the appropriate folder by searching the parent folder for a sub folder containing the job number (always the first 6 figures).
I want to insert in my macro some code that searches...
The parent folder for a folder containing the job number. The macro value for the parent folder is P:engineeringdrawings (this never changes). the macro value for the job number is iOpenair (it's an entry that is entered as start the macro). Imagine the value for the job number is "999999"...so the search would be for "999999*.*" The code needs to search the parent folder, find the folder name that begins with a six digit number. Capture the complete name of the folder and store that name as a Dim value that I can call up elsewhere in my macro.
I have several excel documents all linked to one unique excel document which I will call document A.
Document A is a performance spreadsheet where I have percentages, sales figures and times, for my sales team.
Each sales person has their own unique dashboard (another excel document) that I am currently trying to finalize.
Their personal dashboards have pie charts with text boxes. The text boxes within the charts link up to their relevant cells in document A.
When Document A is open and I open 1 of the sales person's dashboards. Everything looks good and works, however.
When I close document A the dashboard information changes. For example, the dashboard information could be showing 25% but when I close document A it reverts to 0.25
If I close down the dashboard and open document A back up, change it to 30% then close it. The dashboard recognizes the change BUT reads as 0.30. This is the same with them all.
The only fix I have figured out is creating another tab in Document A then duplicate of all the information required for the dashboards then save the cells as TEXT (as opposed to currency, percentage etc).
This kind of defeats the object because I have formulas set up in Document A and don't want to be doing twice the work.
I have a file containing thousands of hyperlinks to respective image files. How I create a macro to save them with respective document names as shown in individual cells ?

If I double click a excel doc icon it will start excel, hang for about a minute and a half then just display a excel blank doc. If I then go back to the original doc icon with excel still open and double click it again the document appears.
