Search Cell Value In Another Workbook And Copy Range From Current To Other Workbook

Mar 11, 2014

I have 2 workbooks. 1 is where data is entered called wksPB, the other is like a database workbook. The wksPB has data to be feed from column B to F and there is a dropdown.

what im looking to do is, if the combobox value is selected as Decline then it should display a messagebox that reference value in cell B is denied. if combobox value is Agreed then the macro should search the database workbook for the text entered in column b of wksPB and then copy data of C:E of wksPB to H:J of database sheet where that text is found and also the approver name in wksPB C24 to the approver cell of where that text was found. I've reached till finding the text but what I get my head twiting on is how to copy the text from wksPB column B:F to database sheet column H:K. Im attaching the sample workbooks and the code where ive reached till.

Return Cell Value Of Current Row

Jun 17, 2006

Is it possible to setup a formula or maybe a custom function that will return column B's value of the current row you are working on?

For example, say a user is editing J9 or K9. I want for range G6 to give the B9's value. So in this case, it G6 would have 110000 because 110000 is what is in G6. Then if the user went down to J11 or K11, G6 would change to the value of B11.

I'm doing this to remind the users what job number they are working on without having to scroll back or have the whole row highlighted.

Reference Cell In Current Workbook Whilst Using Camera Tool

Jul 17, 2013

I'm making a dashboard and currently using a camera tool to show a sheet in a different workbook.

However the camera shot should show the sheet for the current month. (the workbook contains 12 sheets one for each month)

I was trying to reference a cell within the dashboard workbook in the formula bar to select the correct month.

[Code] .....

This is the workbook being referenced and

[Code] ....

This is what I have to try select the sheet with the right month. W2 contains whatever month it currently is.

I get that this formula is wrong because I'm referencing a sheet/cell in the dashboard workbook right after calling the tracking workbook, I just don't know how to write it correctly.

Opening New Workbook And Pasting Values Into Current Workbook?

May 13, 2014

I am using the below code (i have combined different bits of code which i found on these forums) to open a new workbook, copy all the data in it and paste it into Sheet2 in the active workbook . Also, i want the data to be pasted on the next empty row as there is already data in Sheet2. The data that is being copied and pasted has the same format and it is going to be repeated many times.

The problem i am having is that it is not offsetting the data to the next empty row - i think it is a simple change but i can't seem to get there :s

Also, the code is currently selecting all of the data from the workbook that i open - is there a way i can select all of the data, excluding the first row (the first row contains the headings which i already have in Sheet2 in the active workbook).

[Code].....

Autofilter Another Workbook And Copy Range Into Current Workbook

Mar 2, 2014

I'll soon have an ETL process that will load about 150K rows into an Excel workbook. On of the columns will be the end user's userid.

I need to autofilter that external workbook based on the end user's userid, copy that range, clear a worksheet on the current workbook, and copy that range to the current worksheet.

For example, see the attached workbooks. I need to replace the data in Source.xlsb!Cases with the data in Output.xlsb!Case_List, filtered on my userid, which we'll call foo.

Saving Cell Contents To XML File Saved As Current Workbook File Name

Dec 12, 2012

I have numerous spreadsheets that I need to open and unhide a sheet, that has XML data stored in cell A1. What I need to do is copy that data in cell A1 and paste it into a text document and save that as an XML file saved as the XLS workbook name with a date stamp.

I'm running into many issues, the main issue is the saving as current file name, and the formatting of the text/XML file.

Here is my current code, which doesn't reference the current file name and is just very generic. Once I get the saving as file-name correct and the formatting of the xml file correct, I will work on it a bit more.

Code:
Sub Test()
Dim Rng As Range
Dim wb As Workbook
Set Rng = Range("A1:A2")
Set wb = Workbooks.Add
With wb
Rng.Copy

How To Reference A Cell In Another Workbook And Return Cell Value And Comment

Nov 2, 2012

What is the best way to reference a cell in another workbook and return the cell contents and the comment on that cell. I would like the comment to come across as a comment in the new workbook becuase the comment is actually a picture.

Hope this makes sense. I did find a macro through googling but I couldn't get it to work? I don't really want to copy and paste because eventually I have hundreds of sheets & thousands of cells to refer to.?

How To Restrict Code To Current Workbook

Aug 3, 2014

I have the following code linked to a drop down list in my workbook.

[Code].....

It populates textboxes on the sheet with a lookup value result, the lookup value is taken from the dropdown box. The problem I have is any other excel workbooks that are open at the same time, the code is trying to run against those workbooks when I edit them, I can't seem to restrict the code to run only against the workbook in which the dropdown box which the code is linked to, exists in. I have tried moving the code to a module in the workbook but then the code does not seem to work as it does know which workbook the combo box and text boxes which should be filled with the lookuip result belong in

Enter Current Workbook Name In Formula

Jul 31, 2009

I have the formula:

=HYPERLINK("[Book1.xlsm]'Sheet1!A1","To Reachback")

I may however change the name of Book1, therefore rendering the hyperlink formula useless. Is there a way to enter something in place of Book1 that will return the current name of the workbook?

If there isn't, I will have to create a VBA program to update the hyperlinks, and will therefore have additional questions about that shortly.

Copy Worksheets Into Current Workbook

Oct 30, 2006

I have developed a macro, run by a button click, in my workbook.

I have about 5 other workbooks to process, what I want to do is to have my workbook with my macro open, then either copy or import these other 5 workbooks, one at a time, into my current workbook so I can run my macro on their data. Not sure if I need to copy them in or not, but thats all I can think of. I'm not even sure how to do this manually, I tried having my workbook open and doing a file - import on the .xls file, but it seems to be translating my data and I'm ending up with a value of 'f1' in one of my columns, no idea what that is. All I really want to accomplish is to run my macro on each of the 5 workbooks, one at a time.

Show/Hide Toolbars For Current Workbook Only

May 10, 2006

I have a macro that starts when the workbook is open that hides many of the headers and toolbars. It is great and works fine unless you are working on another workbook and need to see those headers and tool bars. Is there a way to display and hide those items per workbook and not for the entire application. here is my failed attempt:

Sub show_excel_headers()

Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ThisWorkbook

wb.Application. ScreenUpdating = False

'Display Headings in all worksheets
Dim wsSheet As Worksheet
Dim sSheetStart

Set sSheetStart = ActiveSheet

wb.Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each wsSheet In Worksheets
wsSheet.Activate
ActiveWindow.DisplayHeadings = True
