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...

1 column in my sheet is a list of dates (affectively a calendar). I am trying to create a macro that will only display rows 1-5 and then current the current date and the next 30 days and hide all other rows.
The approach I have tried is to use “ADDRESS(MATCH(BS40,$B$1:$B$462,0),2)” equation to find the cell with todays date in it (Cell BS40 contains todays date). This was repeated for todays date +30. The problem I have is that although I now have the cell address’s located I cannot reference their values in a range.select
What I want to do is somwthing like this:

I have created a spreadsheet and saved it as a template. when the staff open it to enter information they use save as and give it a name. They only need open and enter information once. I have put into this spreadsheet in cell A1 a formula to enter the days date. This all works fine. A few days later I need to access the spreadsheet to check the figures entered and obviously the date changes to the date when I open it up. Is there any way of stopping this happening without using macros. i.e. keep the date as the day they entered the information.

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".

I am using the below to open a text file and copy the used range to my working workbook. The opening of the file makes the code slow and and also it may be bcoz i am trying to paste 11800 lines of data from one file to another.
Also i can see the flickering of the screen when the files are open. How to make the code faster and more efficient.
Code:
Sub readSimFile()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'//code//
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual

I have a a planner made using excel. Monday to Sunday are from G3 - M3 and the months are in F3 going downwards. The months are abbreviated to 3 letters e.g. Jan, Feb, etc.
Where months cross over in the same week this is indicated as month/Next month e.g. Jan/Feb. Within these fields I have manually entered the dates, so for example todays date of 19th Feb is located on cell J11, (the coordinates of Thu (in J3) and the month of Feb (F11) (showing on week 8). To indicate todays data on the planner I have used an autoshape and simply filled the colour red, so that it stands out. However, when I open the planner the next day I have to move the autoshape to indicate the correct date.
The problem is, if I want to open the planner today, next week or next month (or whatever date in the current year) could a macro be devised that will indicate the correct day (i.e. by increasing the text size, change the font, color, etc?) using the exact headings as I have mentioned? I am assuming a macro on open would work which would look at todays date, and convert this to both a day in the week and month. Once done it could then find the exact day?

Example......
The answer i should get is 4 since only 3 dates fall 90 days before or after todays date.

Im designed a form in excel, which has a calendar date picker to select a desired delivery date for the user, which makes it easier to use for the user, than using a text box.
Ive searched a number of websites and so far havent seen what I need.
I want the calendar, once my form has been opened, to automatically change to the current date.
So in summary, the code, I believe would look something like this:

way to have the vehicle registration date compared to todays date and have it return either due next month, due or over due.
Todays date is in format month/day/year, registration is only by month/year. Todays date is in fixed location in worksheet updated by function Today()
Basically a formula that resembles =If(registration date < todays date, overdue, If( registration date = todays date, due, If(registration date = todays date+1month, next month, If( registration date > todays date + 1 month, 0))))

I have the below code that when the spreadsheet opens input boxes pop up. The first asking to put the date in, but how can i make sure that the user does not put "todays date" in at anytime! (the date put into the inputbox (cell d2) should always be less than the date in b2 = todays date). As cell b2 in the sheet "97008390" already has todays date in. (using =today()).

What do I have wrong with this? I want to find a cell that matches today's date and then start with that row by copying a time value in another worksheet to the one that has the dates already.
Sub PunchClock()
'This will copy the current time punched and place it into the correct cell
Range("B3").Select
Do Until ActiveCell = Now()
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop
All I need is some direction with this. I tried setting up a variable then check that variable against the current date and I didn't have that one figured out either.

i am building a data base and every day, say, at 5pm a certain cell should contain a corresponding date. In my macro I simply wrote
Range("A1").Offset(i-1,0).Formula="=Today()"
I thought naiivly it would work, but it doesn't, as the next day the date will be changed correspondingly. So, the question is: how to record todays' date (Dec 29) so that this date stays in this cell forever? Only the date, not Excel Dates & Times

I would like to include a filter in my macro that shows orders with current date, and sometimes current date minus one (yesterday). This is a monthly recurring task.
In the custom filter I tried: "equal to @Today" but that didn't work. Can someone tell me how I can solve the problem? Here's a snippet from my macro, filterne on something else Selection.AutoFilter Field:=21, Criteria1:=">=89" 'STCD_TO_TODAY

I am trying to loop through some data in Column B and I want it to report on ALL values that are < todays date. However the loop is stopping at the first date that is less and not continuing on afterwards. I know what is causing this but I am unsure how to solve it.

I’ve been searching the forum but am struggling to find exactly the information I need!
I’m trying to get a column of cells to update with the date that the cells contents change to “Y”. I had been using the formula =IF(I7="Y",TODAY(),"-") in cell J7 but this updates the date every day. I need this date to remain the same as when it’s first populated.
I’ve been trying to cut and paste text from existing posts into the Visual Basic code but am new to this so am not getting the results I need. I had tried:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
'will put date in column B when something is put in A
If Target.Column = 9 Then
Target.Offset(0, 1).Value = Date
End If
End Sub
But this caused all sorts of problems! I then tried messing around with:
Option Compare Text
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
On Error GoTo enditall
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.Column = "I" Then
If Target.Value = "Y" Then
Excel.Range("J").Value = Date
End If
End If
enditall:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
But this doesn’t work either. In fact, both these codes are probably riddled with errors as I’ve been trying to learn by trial and error!

I have a calendar in excel that looks like this:
January 20091234567891011February 200912345678
etc. for all days of the month, and all months of the year.
(The gold coloured cells are part of a formula I have somewhere else - no need to worry about them)
I was wondering - is there a way to get it so that whatever todays date is, the calendar will highlight the column a specific colour (e.g.) if the date was the 5th January, it would look like this:
January 20091234567891011February 200912345678
(Although not nescessarily that specific (and frankly pretty horrible) shade of green).
I have a list of all the HTML codes, palette numbers and hex codes for all the excel colours.
I'm using Excel 2003.
