I am currently using a macro to copy a sheet from a closed workbook in to my current workbook. However this copying is based on the sheet name. At present when I run the following code
View 11 Replies View Relatedi have a made a macro that copies info to a new sheet now that is working great but if i change the name of the work book it wont work any more so i need the macro to work with what ever name i give the workbook
the current name is
AVERAGE PRICE (update 2009) Mimmos Armico 170809.xls
i have attached the code in notepad ...
I have a macro code which gets the file list from a folder i specify and puts it in to an excel sheet as a column. I have then made a drop down list from this so the user can select the file they want.
From this file i wish to copy the data on a sheet that i specify. For example the sheet "dump" from file FR7_19.11.2009.xls (which will be a closed workbook) and paste its content in to the sheet "dump" in Summary.xls
I have a macro which opens up the closed workbook FR7_19.11.2009.xls and copies the sheet "dump" and then creates a new sheet of the same name and content in my current workbook (Summary.xls). However when i wish to select a different file to load in to Summary.xls "dump" the formulas i have been calculating information from this sheet all come up with #!Ref errors. I know this is because the macro i use deletes the old dump sheet before re adding a new one containing new data.
I am therefore looking for a macro which will simply just copy and paste the data from any file i select in to a sheet named "dump" as the data is always set out the same in every file but the values are different. I assume this will then mean that any formulas i use relating to this "dump" sheet in Summary.xls will work because the sheet is no longer being deleted and re-added the data within it has just simply been copied over.
I have designed a spreadsheet that updates automatically and shows the company's perfomance on several sheets.
To add to the use of the sheet I would like to offer the user a preference set up. So they choose the sheet it opens on for example.
I am happy with how to do all the above except for the fact that the sheet is required to be available to all staff! so only one employee can have it open in read/write everyone else will eb read only!
I was thinking the only way around this would be to have a second sheet that saves their environ user name and preferences.
That would require using the sheet closed though would it not?
I have managed to use ADO to copy data from a closed book to my active sheet. Problem : it copies only the text, and not the dates or figures...
Code:
Sub TestReadDataFromWorkbook()
' fills data from a closed workbook in at the active cell.

TargetRange As Range, IncludeFieldNames As Boolean)
'GetDataFromClosedWorkbook "C:FolderNameWorkbookName.xls", "A1:B21", ActiveCell, False
'GetDataFromClosedWorkbook "C:FolderNameWorkbookName.xls", "MyDataRange", Range("B3"), True

how to get excel to open a work book in my c drive if i have given it the location in cell m2

I can open the workbook and click on ANY sheet....but when i click on this one particular sheet in the book i get the error message
This work book is a template....its the estimating work book i use at work...and whenever i get a new job to estimate i open up this template.....put in my data and save the workbook as the job title.....so basically i have about 50 of these workbooks......and it doenst matter which one i open.......whenever i go to this one same sheet in any workbook i get the freeze
and the freaky thing about this is it does it randomly....I make save this template (as a new work book) when i get a new job to estimate.....and i never have any problems.......but today for some crazy reason its doing what i mentioned above......it did this about a month ago too.......same exact problem.
when it happened the first time i tried all kinds of stuff, and the only thing that worked was i had to go to windows explore...save all the files to a memory chip.......go to a different pc with my version of windows (XP)....open each file up......re-save it.......go back to my pc...reload it

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a cell that I want to use data validation on so I have a drop down list. Problem is the location of this list will be in another workbook.. Is this possible to go from one workbook to another using data validation?
Also, depending on the information that is selected from the drop down list I want a cell to the left to pick the corresponding data from the list in the other workbook. These forms will always be in the same folder.. Not sure if that information is necessary but just in case you need to know.
i have done a search on this topic and found many similar answers to many similar questions. All specify using Application.Run "workbookname.xls!macroname".
In my code, the filename has an assigned value as the master code goes out to many secondary files - the user selects the particular one they want at the start of the macro. The variable assigned is called "UpdateKAMsFile".
how do i get the macro called KAMsRandomColour to run in the workbook designated by UpdateKAMsFile?
I need to count the amount of work orders that my employees have completed.
Review example.
How many work orders did chuck complete? (Column D)
How many work orders did brian complete?
so to start off im not able to attach things due to security reasons, what i need is either 1 of 2 macros. if its possible, both are related. one possible is as follows: i need it to go through a certain column (say I for example) and look at the information in it, this information can vary from peoples names along with dates and other stuff, i want it to look through these and if anything has a date today and prior i need the cell to be highlighted. problem is sometimes it might have 2 dates, or no dates. it should have todays date, their name, other information, and future date of something. but not everyone does, this is the macro i dont think that can exists.
2nd macro possibility the other macro uses the first sheet, AFTER been highlighted, normally by hand, and takes it to another workbook and puts in in certain spots. so the first sheet has names of everyone in column K. what i need is it to look at column I and if its highlighted take entire row to other book, and put into sheet under the person name in their tab. the second book has a tab for each person (at this time 18 tabs) which can fluxuate, and each tab is the persons first and last name, without spaces. since when i put sums on main page it didnt want to work with the spaces i had to omit them. again im not sure this is possible.
I have a sumif formula in one workbook that relates to information off of another workbook...when the other workbook is open the information populates no problem when you close the other workbook I get the #VALUE error. Is this typical of SUMIF when referring to another workbook? I have a vlookup function that refers to the same workbook and it works fine when the other workbook is closed?
Basic run down of spreedsheet. 2 diffrent sheets formated like a calendar. sheet one is to track minutes tardy for employees at work. Work sheet 2 is to document any weather or other issue that might arive to cause and employee to be tardy.
I have condintional formating set up to change the cells a diffrent color (on sheet 1) if the same day is flagged on sheet 2 as a exceptionalable day. What i want -
When i flag a day as a weather issue or other exceptionalable issue on sheet 2 i place a inserted comment with an explantion. I want this comment to auto transfer to the corrisponding cell in sheet 1 when i place it on sheet 2. I'm not sure if this is possible with Excel 03 but thought i'd ask.
I made the following code to merge 2 workbooks together.
The code is to be executed when the user has Workbook A opened. (All sheets in workbook KPISWD are supposed to be moved after all worksheets in workbook KPICustomers).
I keep getting a debug error on the code that is supposed to do the actual move and loop until it is finished with all of the sheets in Workbook B.
Code:
Dim KPICustomers, KPISWD As String
KPICustomers = ActiveWorkbook.Name
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"W:FacturatieKPI per periode SWD.xls"
KPISWD = ActiveWorkbook.Name
[Code] ..........
I have the below code, which now looks to see if a file is open or not, if it is, then copy and past 'Data' and if not open the book and copy 'Data'.
I think the code is sort of right, but im missing something, as i keep getting runtime error when i try and copy. Here is the
Sub PrintSaveKPIUpdate()
Dim sFilName As String
sFilName = "C: estCashSales_KPI.xls"
Set Main = ThisWorkbook
If IsOpen(sFilName) Then
' Book is Open.
Worksheets("Setup Data"). Range("Data").Activate

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that I would like to run on every worksheet in my book (over 100 sheets wide). As it takes about 20 secs to run on each sheet, and I don't want to click from sheet to sheet, how can I make it run on every sheet in the book? And no, they aren't named sequentially, either alphabetically or numerically.
is there a function in Excel to return the number of sheets in a book?
I'm having an issue with a macro that copies sheets from one workbook into a new workbook. The issue is it doesn't copy all the sheets. It only copies the first 10 and doesn't capture the the remaining 15. I've checked the range of the translation table and the issue doesn't appear to be there.

I need a macro that will copy specific columns from one book into another workbook.
I imagine this isn't too hard, but i can't seem to find the answer.
Also, i have another macro at the moment which allows me, when i run it, to select the workbook which i wish to copy the columns from.
I have a macro that used to create a new book for each of the worksheets in a workbook that would name them the same as the worksheet.
Since our company upgraded to Windows 7 the macro, more often than not, fails to work.
The code for the macro is
Code:
Sub NewBook1()
'
Set wbSource = ActiveWorkbook
For Each ws In wbSource.Sheets
ws.Copy
Set wbDest = ActiveWorkbook
wbDest.SaveAs strSavePath & filePrefix & " " & ws.Name & " " & fileSuffix
wbDest.Close
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

I have several similar documents open. They each have a macro with the shortcut CTRL + SHFT + T. The problem is each macro is different for each book. When I am working on book X, I don't want macro from book Z to run, but it does.
I need all of them to be open.
I need to get this macro to process the cells for every worksheet in a book rather than just the active one

v2 = Mid(Cells(i, 3), 1, 1)

At job, Mac OSX and Address Book 4.0.6 with contact info including in many cases emails. I'd like to get it of there, into Excel to manipulate, and ultimately into a FileWrecker Pro database. How to export 1087 entries from Address Book including only selective data fields is the question, and I know that's "slightly" OT, but I do want to import into Excel, so I hope that vindicates me! If not, and you can point me to a good MacForum, I'll settle.
