Write VBA Code That Will Generate Text File With ALL Changes Made To Excel File
Jun 4, 2012
Is it possible to write vba code that will generate a text file with ALL changes that were made to an excel file. Ex. If Cell A17 = "Monday, June 4, 2012" and a user updates Cell A17 to "N/A", I would like to know what the value was before and after the udpate was made.
I work for an environmental company and we do emission testing. We specifically use the analysis software CEMsoft and ProRATA. After each test/run we get a text file (.txt) that we print out which then has to put into a specific pre-made excel data file.
I am wondering if there is a way to export the data from the .txt file and into the specific fields within the excel sheet. Can I encode the .txt or excel file to do it for me? Trying to eliminate the need to manually put in the data from the printed out sheet.
I'm getting an object required error in excel, but don't really understand.
rivate Sub CommandButton1_Click() free_number = FreeFile() Filename = app.Path & "/file_write_output.txt" StringToSave = Cells(1, 1).Value Open Filename For Output As free_number Write #free_number, StringToSave Print #free_number, StringToSave Close #free_number End Sub
Pls see below codes, the codes can record down changes made "from" and "to" and put on the "Log" sheet, however it is unable to capture the original values when I first open the file and make the changes.
Also, how can I put the value of "Now" in column B?
Code: Dim PreviousValue Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Value PreviousValue Then
I have a file that I want to name based on content in certain cells. I.e. "Q-(text from cell G1)-(text from cell B7)-Date(mm_dd_yy)". I want to be able to specify the location where I save this file each time I try to save it, but I want it to update the file's name if any of the parameters have changed.
I have some code generated that does just about everything right except that it automatically saves a version of the file in the folder where the original is located even though it also brings up the dialog box and allows me to save it in another location.
Basically, I want to fix the code below so that it doesn't save what appears to be a backup file each time. Should I be using some sort of savecopyas?
Code: Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean) 'Add the quote # to the header ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = "Quote No. " & Range("G1").Value
In VBA, is it possible to write to a text file, on 1 single line (without carriage return or line feed) the values of a dynamic array? For instance, I have the array:
Dim my(n) As Double 'n is changeable my(0) = 0 my(1) = 1 my(2) = 2 .....
I want to write to a text file, like this: Write #filename, my(0), my(1), my(2) '..... until my(n) but n is changing
I want them on 1 line, because I use the other direction (up - down) for other things).
I have a table made up of 4 columns and variable number of rows. Column A has 8-digit number; B has 8-digit number; C has text up to 40 chars; D has a number with two decimal points. I would like to generate or replace a text file in csv format containing each row's data EXCEPT where column D value (number with 2-decimal points) is 0.00. Using Excel 2003.
I have a workbook with many spreadsheet named Sheet1, Sheet2 and so on. Each sheet is filled completely upto 65536 rows. This data is being picked up from a CSV file. In this file there are sites with each site there is a assciated set of data. What happens is the data that extracts data does not differntiate between sites and when it reaches to the end of worksheet it splits the data into next sheet. So I am trying to create a macro to check each spreadsheet starting with the last sheet in the work book for example last sheet in the workbook is seven it should go to sheet6 and if there is a blank row after row 64000 it should cut all the rows and move them to sheet7. Then it should goto sheet5 and do the same and keep on doing it until it reaches sheet1.
I am thinking to make a excel file which can generate a headre file for my c++ source file. Previoulsy we used to generate .h files using excel but i dont know the logic behind that(Hope some macros using for that).
MY header file contains this many data and my intention is to give "MYapp Alpha 0.0.3" through excel file because the version number changes for each release. If i used excel file then I can edit that excel and it creates .h file for me, later some more informations i can make configurable through excel file
I need a VBA code to create a Text file which should be in the form of DML (my scenario is to get Insert Statements for the Data available in the Excel) from Excel Sheet. And this has to be done by assigning a macro to command button where by clicking on it the DML text file should be generated. Even the syntax for the scenario will do.
What if you have text that are hyperlinked to a txt file and you want to read from it and copy it into excel. What can I do then. Here is what I have been working on so far:
Sub GoToHyperLink() Dim cell As Range Dim link As Hyperlink Dim Textline As String
I have a supplier list which i access all the time. To view individual supplier details i use find function using supplier code and then scroll through the sheet to view all the details and it is quite hectic. Is there any way i can modify the sheet so that every time i search for a supplier , only that supplier details can be shown in a different sheet or notification which i can also print if i want.
I have a macro that takes a text file as input and produces an excel file as output. I want a macro to store the name of the text file in a variable (without its file extension).
As I am looping through files in a folder, I would like to determine if the file is a text file.
The problem is that all extensions are variable in a pattern such as .078, .051, etc.
In this instance, the extensions are numeric, but I'm trying to figure out a way to handle that is all encompassing to include *.txt, *.tsv, *.csv, *.prn, etc......
VBA coding for automatically saving an excel file as another file using the current date as part of the file name together with "32ga" as a constant add-in. I also what this macro to run at a particular time of the day let say 00:20hrs. The excel file i want to save as is always open . It has data that changes every 24-hrs.
I 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)
I have an Excel workbook that will be used by multiple users who share a network drive.
I would like to set it up so that the VBA code is ran from a text file stored on the network drive containing the VBA code. Basically a macro would run from the Excel workbook and get the VBA code from the text file and then run that code. Has anyone done this before or can anyone provide the syntax for this process?
I have a spreadsheet where I want to require certain fields to be completed then I want to have that file auto emailed. I have learned that I do need to have the file saved before sending otherwise the data will not appear in the email, so with this I want to have the file temporarily saved emailed then the temp file deleted.
Here is the code I have so far but it errors on the blue text, I did change the TempFileName from = "Copy of " & wb1.Name & " " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy h-mm-ss") to = [C16] & "_" & [B6] & "_" & [D6]
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() If Range("B6").Value = "" Or _ Range("d6").Value = "" Or _ Range("f6").Value = "" Or _ Range("E9").Value = "" Or _
