I am trying to print from excel a text file of a sheet data, creating the text file works but I need to have it encoded as UTF8?? Here is the code I have to print.
[Code] .....
Not sure if I need to add something to this or do I have to open the text file in Notepad and do the convert to UTF8 there?
I have a piece of code that imports data from a database on the web. It works but the import uses the wrong encoding. Excel also messes up a column with id-numbers, starting with three zeros that are removed by Excel.
How can a change my code so that it imports the data as utf8 and the columns as text?
Code:
Sub csvAll_diva_update()
Dim url As String
url = "URL;http://kth.diva-portal.org/dice/csvAll?query=-publicationTypeCode:studentThesis&start=0&rows=20&sort=author_sort%20asc"
Sheets("DiVA_All").Activate
ActiveSheet.Cells.Clear

Instead of me saving a blank text file in the folder where the workbook resides, I would like it incorporated in the macro if possible. The name of the text file would be the value (string?) in cell B5.
Sub MakeTextFile()
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Dim txt As String, r As Range
Dim Answer As String, MyNote As String
MyNote = "Do you have an empty text file ready in the" & vbCrLf & _
"folder where this workbook resides?" & vbCrLf & _
"This text file needs to be named" & vbCrLf & _
"ABCD.TXT"..........................................................................
I am currently working on sheet that i need to have print out user names and random passwords for as many people that entered on the sheet to a text file for email. I am running into a few issues.
1. When i try to print to a .txt file of the text from column G on sheet 'Review and Generate', all the text appears on one line. I have been trying to use the Char(10) to create line spaces, but that has not worked out for me. How do i get excel to export text from a cell to a .txt file with correct line spaces?
2. I have a random password function running on column F, however i am trying to get it only produce one result and not keep calculating random values. How do i have the cell calculate only once?
I am trying to have a file print in legal size if I have 56 lines filled in

I have an excel file which I really need to encode non english characters as when I import it into our system all special characters return as �
The problem is I need it to work similar to how this works: Unicode to HTML converter
It only encodes standard text, leaving the HTML intact, and only converts non-english characters such as UTF-8 etc...
I have tried setting the encoding when saving to a CSV file as UTF-8 however still no luck.
Like am having a excel sheet which has N number of cells which cells contails data and numbers and formulas..By using macro how i can first Encode the workbook contents and then decode the workbook by using the same password.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have an existing spreadsheet with a column of strings (actually VIN numbers). These numbers correllate to a bunch of text files, that can exist in one of three folders (UsernameDesktop1, 2, or 3) on my desktop. What I need the macro to do is:
1) get the filename from A2 (A1 is a heading row)
2) Find the appropriate text file in one of the three folders
3) Put the folder name into I2
4) Scan the text file for some strings, and copy some data that follows those strings into J2:O2 (I can handle programming this)
5) Close the text file
6) repeat above for the remainder of filenames (about 1800 files)
Got a slight problem; I am making a "worker-plan", where you should be able to write a name on one file and have it updated (removed) from the equivalent columns on another file automatically. Here's an example with two separate projects:
Project 1 before and after changes:
Attachment 257366
Attachment 257367
Project 2 before and after changes:
Attachment 257368
Attachment 257369
You can see here how I intended it to work. When one worker is moved from Project 1 to Project 2, that worker should also be removed from those weeks in Project 1. The previous worker from Project 2 should also be removed from those weeks (in Project 2).
Are there any formulas that can make this work automatically? All week numbers will belong to the same columns in all files.
Edit: There are 30 files that should be syncronized, not just two.. I could also gather all files into one file with sheets, instead of having seperate files.
Is it possible to print a PDF file from a macro? I want to have the pdf file specified by the user in a form to print when the macro is activated.

I inherited the following code from my predecessor:
ps_filename = "C:Example" & which_area_name & Cells(j, 6)
Sheets(sheets_name).Activate
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, PrintToFile:=True, Collate:=True, prtofilename:=ps_filename
Which created postscript files from Excel. I used to run this code while logged on as my predecessor, becuase only she had write permissions on the relevant file (C:Example). However, her account has now been deleted from the system - I have reset the permissions on the folder so that I can write to it, but the PostScript files created do not work - I get the error message that the file is corrupted and cannot be opened, or that there is a syntax error. The files used to work fine when logged in as my predecessor - could it be that? I have also tried to run the code on a different machine/on a different excel file and the problem still occurs.
I am unable to print an office file to a certain printer because I am not the author of the file.. when I copy and paste to a new doc I can print no problem.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a technician who sits a desk over, has the same brand of computer running the same Windows 7 and the same Excel 2010, but when he opens a particular file the page layout or print area seems to change so that the sheet is partially cut off. All his options appear the same. I can open this file on other computers and it seems to be fine...
I notice that the Margins under Custom Margins are different and this would explain the problem but not why it occurs. It's a file I created and saved and he opened. Why would the margins change? Is this one of the Microsoft cross platform / program deals where if he changes the print set-up or page layout in WORD for example, it changes them in EXCEL?

However as someone could just delete the printed user log in the Sheet2, and also you can't use this if you protect the sheet, which defeats the purpose.
I want it to print the log into a separate file. Can I add in the file path/name to this code somewhere?
In Excel 2010 I was working on a file setting it up to print. The file closed somehow and I just cannot reopen it. There are other files in the same folder and they all open normally.

I am writing an Array to a text file but I keep getting an error that the Print statement requires a suitable object. I tried Debug but all this did was put the data into the immediate window and created a file that was empty.
"????.Print FNum, OPTOarray(j, k)".
The data in the immediate window is correct but when you open the text file with notepad there is nothing to be seen.
I have a macro which imports data from a mainframe dump text file and performs 'Text to Columns' on the imported data so that formula in the spreadsheet can act on the data. The code works perfectly well when I use it, but if a different user logs on and performs exactly the same mainframe dump and import macro the Text to Columns action splits the raw data in a different way and the result is that the split renders the formulae useless.
I've experimented a little and for some reason it appears that the 'Field Info' parameters which are produced when the Text to Columns function is recorded in a macro differ between users even though the raw data is exactly the same.
FieldInfo:= _
Array(Array(0, 1), Array(18, 1), Array(35, 1), Array(56, 1), Array(70, 1), Array(88, 1), _
Array(102, 1))
I have a text box that I couldn't get to print properly on one page of A4 (margins). The text box then grew beyond an A4 sheet of paper and I made two text boxes. I've managed to get the first text box to print, but I can't tell Excel how to print the second text box.
