Hello Everyone
I am having some difficulties finding a solution to my problem. I am hoping someone can help or lead me to the right direction.
I have a workbook called Data.xlsm, below is a sample:
ID, Name, commission
1 john 1000
2 eric 2000
3 ryan 3000
Now I have another excel file called Temp.xls which looks pretty much the same as Data.xlsm.
ID, Name, Commission
1 john 200
2 eric 300
I need a macro that will read the Temp.xls and grab the commissions and bring them to Data.xlsm. The commissions need to be summed based on ID.
The final Result on Data.xlsm should be as follows:
1 john 1200
2 eric 2300
3 ryan 3000
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Just a quick and dirty solution
Make sure you place this in the same folder as your Temp.xlsm file and press the button
It will open Temp
update the data, if a new Id is in Temp it will add the data and set the commission values in Temp to 0 to avoid running it twice.
I hope the code explains itsefl.
Think of a macro of a step by step instrcution as you would say it out loud.
Hello,
I have a master workbook with 20 worksheets. 5 worksheets in the worksbook are distributed to field reps, but the remaining 15 worksheets are not. What is the best practice for receiving the 5-worksheet workbook from the field rep and importing the data into the 20-worksheet master workbook? If I merely use Copy Sheet I am able to copy the worksheets into the master workbook but then I have to remove the pathname references in each of the copied worksheets in order to map the data in the master workbook - which is quite cumbersome. Suggestions?
Hi jpirhalla, welcome to the forum.
Have you tried moving the sheets over. Dragging the sheet from the field reps back into the now-15-sheet book?
I have two workbooks that I am using and I am trying to add one cell's data to another cell in another Excel workbook. It used to be as simple as beginning to "add" another cell's data(from another workbook you just migrate to the other workbook) into a different workbook. It isn't working like it used to in Excel 2003. Cant' speak of it for Excel 2007 as I never had it.
Any thoughts on why it won't work? Any way to make it work?

Hi,
I am working on an Excel 2002 report. I need to be able to create a copy of the workbook, strip it down a bit (for uploading purposes), and let the user save it as he/she pleases.
Is it possible to make an active copy of a workbook without saving it?
Excel VBA help is not being very "helpful" on this matter.
Thank you,

Hello, welcome to the board!
It is always best if you work from a saved file. This is just generally a good idea. Is there a reason you do not want to save the workbook? You need to save to do what you want. There is a way, but it is more convuluted than just saving your file.
I got the below code from http://www.rondebruin.nl/copy6.htm site.
Is there anyway of modifying this code so it saves each work with a specified password?
This process is carried out every month and there are 2 lots of 242 (1 set of new account and 1 set of renewal account for loans) new workbooks created so takes an age to open them all and resave with a password.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi again
I don't know if this is possible or not but I'll lay it out there anyway. I have about 2000 Excel files in drive C:/Documents and Settings etc/. I have a workbook called WW Numbers.xls. I need to copy the file names only from C:\ drive into a workbook called WW Numbers.xls starting in Cell A2. For example, I have in drive C:\ the following files:
WW1.xls
WW2.xls
WW3.xls
.
.
.
WW2000.xls
In a workbook called WW Numbers I want only the file names WW1.xls, WW2.xls .....WW2000xls staring on Cell A2.
I don't want to type in all the 2000 file names so I'm wondering if there is a macro that can do that for me
You don't need a macro, you can use something like "FileList" http://www.jam-software.com/filelist/
You can generate a CSV with the file names in which can be opened in Excel, you might only need to insert a column to extract the file name from the full name and path
Hi all,
I really need help with this, as I have tried means to get it right, but I have no experience in VBA and it seem difficult. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I need to copy specific cells in a form (in Excel format) that is input by users and paste them into the summary workbook.
The form is fixed, but every time someone sends in a new form, I'll need to update the data in a summary workbook. So it'll be constant updating and I need to ensure that a new row in the Summary folder is used for each form that is sent in.
I'm trying to write a macro that is able to automate the data transfer.
Eg. I need to:
copy the data from D6 in the file Form to the celll A2 Summary file,
D7 in Form to B2 etc.
Attached is the form and my summary sheet.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Apologies if this has been asked before.I have two different workbooks which I need to link I need to set up an arrangement whereby the data from a particular cell in one workbook is displayed in preferably pop up box in another workbook.
I have attached dummy versions of both the workbooks below.
1.The spreadsheet titled "Issues Log" has a list of issues,each with a unique identifier(column A) which is linked to a unique cab no (Column B).A brief description of the issue is given in Column C.
2.The spreadsheet titled "Link to Display Spreadhseet" has a list of CAB numbers (Column A) which corresponds to the "Issues Log" but the order is jumbled up.
In column B ,I need to place a link which will display the "Unique Identifier" code from the "Issues Log" corresponding to the cab number.When a person clicks on this Unique ID code ,one of the two things should happen: i.either the breif description of the issue (Column C in the "Issues Log") should pop up in a box.or
ii.Clicknig on the link will open up the issues log.
I hope I am clear in what I want.i am ok with using long winded formulas,tried some combinations of Match,IF etc but always hit a brick wall.I am not good with Macros,VBA.Any help/pointers would be greatly appreciated.
I am using Excel 2007
regards
Hi,
Just a question, since you need to know what is the issue with its description. why do need the unique identifer for that and linked it do description. It might be a silly question, but please forigve me for that.
In case you don't need the unique identifier column, you can use vlookup for the populating the details.

Hi There
I have searched the internet to see if I could find a macro that opens a workbook and runs a macro. In other words, I have workbook 1 (master workbook) and workbooks 2,3,4 ...1000. So far I found a macro that opens workbooks 2, 3, ...1000 by running a macro from workbook 1. Now I have a macro in workbooks 2,3,....1000. What I want is to run the workbooks 2,3,...1000 macro from workbook 1. I can do it if I call the workbook name. But I don't want to do that, since I have over 1000 workbooks. Below is the code.
Sub WWNumbers()
Dim fso As Object 'FileSystemObject
Dim fldStart As Object 'Folder
Dim fld As Object 'Folder
Dim fl As Object 'File

Set fldStart = fso.GetFolder("C:\Users\Mario\Documents\Folder1 Name\Folder2 Name")
Mask = ActiveCell.Value

Hi,
I'm having trouble with the following code. If I run it as "Sub test()", it works. If I try to run it as is, it hangs up at Sheets("2011 Yearly Summary").Select
HTML:
Private Sub Workbook_open()
Range("A1").Select
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:\Excel\PT\pt money.xlsm"
Sheets("2011 Yearly Summary").Select
Range("A1").Select
ActiveCell.Range("A1:U36").Select
Selection.Copy
Windows("Treasury Summary.xlsm").Activate
ActiveCell.Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Range("A1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Windows("pt money.xlsm").Activate
ActiveCell.Select
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWorkbook.Close
End Sub
What I trying to do is import from workbook "pt money"- sheet (2011 Yearly Summary) to workbook "Treasury Summary" each time I open it.
Also what do I add if the workbook that I'm coping from (Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:\Excel\PT\pt money.xlsm")
is already open?

I am trying to write a macro that needs to copy a range of cells from one workbook to another. I am using Excel 2010. The problem I have is that the copied cells link back to the original workbook. How can I preven this? Here is the problem lines:
Windows("Source.xlsx").Activate
Sheets("Analysis").Range("E2:AE3").Copy
Windows("Destination.xlsx").Activate
With Sheets("Analysis")
.Range("E2:AE3").PasteSpecial
End With
Any ideas much appreciated.
Tom
Hi Tom
It depends on what you want the result to look like. If all you want is to copy the data use this in your "Copy" line
Range("E2:AE3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
But if you want to retain the formulas but with any references to other sheets repointed to the Destination sheets you can add this line
Cells.Replace What:="[source.xlsx]", Replacement:=""
This will not work if a sheet referred to in Source does not exist in Destination.

Hi,
Does anyone know how do you copy just the formula from one workbook to different workbook without it having the link to the 1st work book?
i.e.
When I copy the formula ='Balloons N1 Sun'!$A$46 from one workbook to another it comes out like ='[TEMPLATE Balloon Lot details Nights 1 Week XX.xls]Balloons N1 Sun'!$A$46 when all I want is ='Balloons N1 Sun'!$A$46 .
If anyone can help thanks in advance.
Thanks,
David.
You need to copy just the text of the formula, not the cell containing the formula.
Select the cell containing the formula. Press F2 for "Edit" mode. With Shift held down, press Home to highlight all the text. Press CTRL+C (shortcut for copy). Press ESC. Switch to the other workbook (CTRL+Tab). Select the cell where you want the formula. Press F2 again. Press CTRL+V (shortcut for paste). Press ENTER.

Hi,
Is there a way to move/copy a Userform from one workbook to another. I'm making a new workbook and want to use a userform that I already formatted that's in a different workbook. I don't want to have to redo the formatting if I don't have to.

I comprehend that you can use Worksheets.Copy or Worksheets.Move to move a worksheet to a new workbook. But my requirements are more in depth than that, and my VBA is minimal. I have reporting on about 25 different programs, and the program can either be a "A" program or can be a "B" program. I am using this to open the workbook, import a query using ADO, then save the file. However, before saving the file, I want to copy the 2nd worksheet into a new workbook. The requirement set is if it is an "A" program move to a workbook called "A_Programs" if it is a "B" program, then move to a workbook called "B_Programs". Here is the code I currently have:
Code:
Dim NewWb As Workbook
Dim WB As Workbook
Dim CurrentWb As Workbook
Dim WsTData As Worksheet
Dim NewWs As Worksheet
Dim Ocell As Range
Dim GreaterThanExists As Boolean
Dim Type
Type = "B"
Set WB = Workbooks.Open(Filename:="D:\Excel\Mainframe\Reports\FileName.xls")
Call GetAccessDataDAO
Set WsTData = Worksheets("Sheet2")
Set CurrentWb = ThisWorkbook
For Each Ocell In WsTData.Range(WsTData.Cells(2, 45), WsTData.Cells(Rows.Count, 45).End(xlUp))
If Ocell.Value >= Date Then
Set NewWs = Sheets("Sheet1")
Sheets("Sheet 2").Select
NewWs.Rows(1).EntireRow.Cells.Value = WsTData.Rows(1).EntireRow.Cells.Value

I have a workbook for my business from 2009 that I want to copy and make work for 2010. Workbook has 33 pages so I'd like an entirely new workbook for 2010 set up just like my 2009 workbook. I have attempted to copy and paste the desktop icon of this workbook to a new area of the desktop and that worked very well except, when opening the new workbook and erasing all 2009 entries, none of the formulas are working and all will need to be reprogrammed. Is there a better way to accomplish what I need to do. The copied w/b appears to have entered the "Twilight Zone".
In Excel, I wonder how can I copy the formula and the format from worksheet 1 to worksheet 2 - 12? All these woorksheet are in the same workbook. Thank you for the reply.
Should just be able to copy the entire sheet, select all the sheets you want to copy it to, and then just click paste. If there is no extra formula's to avoid, nothing to it.

Hi
I have a starnge problem with Excel 2000.
I am trying to copy a merged cell (8 cols x 1 row) to another merged cell the same size on another sheet using a macro. Normally this works fine.
Others started to want access to the workbook so I turned on the shared workbook facility.
As soon as this is done, when I copy the merged cell to the other merged cell it splits the receiving merged cell into it's original eight columns. So all the other relative references in the macro don't work anymore.
Turn off sharing and it works again fine.
What am I missing?
I've experienced the same issue - with no fix found. I had a couple macros that allowed users to enter new data on one worksheet, then did a cut/paste of the new data to a merged cell on the report form. Sharing the workbook caused the macro to fail, unsharing fixed it. Don't know the cause, but it appears to be universal. I just instructed my users to copy the master form onto their desktops, and I would notify them of updates/changes to the master file on the shared drive (the non-shared file!) when they were made, so they could update their desktop version.
Good luck!
Hi
I have a Workbook(User) that contains data for the issues that have been resolved. Every week I need to pull out a copy (certain columns) of the data that meet a certain criteria and paste it into another workbook(Master) for manipulation.
For Instance I need to copy alll the rows that have "yes" as Feedback and paste it into another workbook.
I want Macro to be stored in one file only(Master). I need to report data on weekly basis and want a new file to be created each week.
I have attached the prototype of files that I am using.

Welcome to the board.
"Every week I need to pull out a copy (certain columns) of the data that meet a certain criteria and paste it into another workbook(Master) for manipulation. For Instance I need to copy alll the rows that have "yes" as Feedback and paste it into another workbook."
While it's possible that "manipulation" includes other actions you're not telling us about, including the Master book in the process at all appears to be complicating things unnecessarily.
With your User.xls active, you could just run this:
Sub test()
Sheets("Sheet1").Copy
x = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Range("N1") = "Check"
Range("N2:N" & x).FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[-5]=""Yes"",""X"",0)"
Range("N:N").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, 1).EntireRow.Delete
Range("N:N").Delete
End Sub
to get a new book with only the rows from User.xls where Feedback = "Yes". You could then save this new book with the date in the name.
"I want Macro to be stored in one file only(Master)."
Storing it in your personal macro workbook would be better. See "Record a macro" in Help.
I created an Excel workbook to monitor my investments. One of the work sheets contains a long column of currency values from an annuity investment with each row showing daily values.
Presently, I manually copy the daily value of that investment and paste it into worksheet # 2 that contains all of my investments. Worksheet # 2 daily refreshes, updates and totals all investments.
My question is this: is there a formula that would automatically copy and paste the daily annuity values from worksheet # 1 into worksheet # 2 without having to manually copy and paste? If so, could you please guide me through the steps to accomplish this?
Many thanks for your prompt attention and cooperation.

Howdy, kinda new here. Anyway, I've got a doozy I can't seem to figure out. We just installed dual-monitors and now Excel is coming up saying "Not enough resources to display completely." It does this even when Excel is just started, with the blank, new workbook. There doesn't seem to be any screen real-estate issues since there's now double the screenspace. Any thoughts or ideas to try would be greatly appreciated.

I write a few macros for other users, and right now I just request that they rename the workbooks each month (or however often they run it) to the same names and then offer a reminder at kick-off. Something like:
Code:
If MsgBox("Are the workbooks saved as 'Workbook_1.xlsx' and 'Workbook_2.xlsx', and are they both open?", vbYesNo) = vbNo Then
End
End If
Windows("Workbook_1.xlsx").Activate
Range("a3").Select
Etc, Etc
Otherwise, I don't know how to make changes or run actions based on workbooks whose names might change. But is there a better way? I've had some people - those least familiar with automation - forget to rename, ignore the message, and then call with problems. Perhaps there's a way, instead, that asks them to name as variables whatever the sheets are called, though this might require some hand-holding, such as a list of what workbooks are open? I don't know. I'm open to suggestions - just putting it out there.
Thanks!

Hi there
Sometimes I click on the X to close the workbook and I accidentally press NO when the computer prompts me to save the workbook since it usually comes up in a yellow box that does not really capture my attention. This usually happens when I'm in a hurry or late at night when I'm half asleep. Is there some code that makes a message box pop up with a message that says in big bold letters "YOU FORGOT TO SAVE YOUR FILE" when I click on the X to close the workbook? If so, this will save me a lot of headackes.

I am no guru, however I did find this in the hep wizard of MS Excel. Hope it is of some help to you.
Save workbooks automatically as you work
On the Tools menu, click AutoSave.
If the AutoSave command is not on the Tools menu, you must install the AutoSave add-in.
How?
Select the Automatic save every check box.
In the Minutes box, enter how often you want Microsoft Excel to save workbooks.
Select any other options you want.
My O/S is Windows Vista and I am running M/S Office 2000 Professional. In the past when using Windows XP I have been able to change which workbook opens when I open Excel.

When I delete them, the screen shows that they are gone however when I strat Excel afterwards, they are back! How can I dlete them and install a new workbook. The standard process shown in the Excel help files is not working. Thank You.

Tech Support Guy,
I have a question regarding linking two Excel (I am using Office 2003) workbooks and varying worksheets.
Here's what I want to do, using a macro, create a link to a cell in workbook A/worksheet X to workbook B/worksheet X (where X is variable).
Now creating a link is easy, except I want the "link" itself to appear in workbook A.
I tried the following:
Workbooks("Workbook A.xls").Worksheets(Worksheet A).Cells(6, 4).Value _
= Workbooks("Workbook B.xls").Worksheets(Worksheet A).Cells(57, 3).Value
However, Excel places the value instead of the link in the cell. I want both, meaning, you see the value in the cell, but when you highlight the cell, you see the link to the 2nd workbook.
I have also tried the the following:
Workbooks("Workbook A.xls").Worksheets(Worksheet A).Cells(6, 4).Value _
= "='[Workbook B.xls] Worksheet A '!R57C3"
This gets me what I need except as I mentioned, the worksheets vary and I have not been able to figure out how to do use a variable worksheet name in this example.
I appreciate your help in solving this problem
Take care,
RJ
I have a shared workbook that when some people open it the formatting does not show the same. Example I have hidden columns, but they don't see them hidden
I have two workbooks I'm trying to combine in a VBA macro. The first excel spreadsheet is just simply a sheet of 30 columns of data and 5k rows. It adds a new row every day.
The second sheet will be the model with the macro. I would like to write a script that will use a sort of vlookup to the data sheet to pull in specific parts of the datatable instead of searching through the whole big sheet.
For example, see attached. The Model tab lets you input a date or dates in the C column and then it would have to somehow search another WORKBOOK, not within this one as the example shows (for simplicity). Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Hi,
I am using Office 2013. I have a workbook which has to be shared. I want to protect it in a way that none of the options can be changes (like I have enabled 'track changes'. 'highlisght changes from users' etc). I do not want that someone turn off the 'track changes' option or as a matter of fact any other option.
They, however, should be able to edit the workbook. Is it possible?
I tried searching but could only see an option to protect workbook structure but noes not protect options.

What I need is that when I put a Decal# in (lets say F23) for a particular person, a Macro (or Formula) would then trigger that row (A23:F23) to be copied and then pasted to the next available blank row on a sheet that is located in a different workbook.
The first workbook is called -
Student List_Decals Input (SheetName is ResidentCommuterList)
The second (target) workbook is called -
Veh Plate_Decal Info Master (SheetName is Master Plate Info List)
I don't know if a Formular can handle this type of thing or if a Macro would be better... but if anyone has a good suggestion, I would be greatful.
thanks
Hi, I need an excel Macro that will copy the rows (including the header) and paste into a new Workbook and then attach the workbook to Outlook email to send. It will need to add a message in the body of the email and add the email addresses. I have included a sample workbook to review.
Thank you for you help.
I need to update one workbook (Master Metrics) with data entered into another workbook (Daily Metrics).
Data is entered in the daily metrics workbook on a daily basis. This data populates the master metrics workbook automatically. The master keeps a running total of the data so that a monthly total can be generated for monthly reporting.
What is the best way to do this?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

How do I set different (scaling) print percentages for each worksheet within an excel workbook?
For example: My workbook has 5 worksheets and I would like for 4 of the 5 pages to print at 75% scaling and the 5th page to print at 68% scaling.
Thanks in advance

From each worksheet, go to File-Page setup, and set the percentage. You can group worksheets, tho I'm not sure you can set the page setup when they are grouped, but I would try it. Click on worksheet 1 tab, hold shift, then click on worksheet 4 tab. Do the page setup, click on worksheet 5, do page setup. Then they should all be set as you desire them.
Using Excel 2010. I regularly download data from a database which have to be sorted by
column 1 - cell color blue on top, then
column 1 - cell color orange on top, then
column 4 - value, from newest to oldest
the data is always downloaded automatically to a workbook named "ABC", and the worksheet is always automatically named ABC#, with the # changing automatically.
the macro is saved in the personal folder. I tried to record using absolute and then as relative reference. the macro NEVER works when I tried to run in any new downloaded workbook or even I recreated the same data in a new untitled workbook.
the number of columns is always the same but the number of rows varies. there are about (7) cell colors, but only the blue and the orange need to be on top
the recorded macro always indicate the name of the worksheet and workbook on which it was created. is this why it does not work on any other workbook or worksheet?
any help will be appreciated
I am copying an excel worksheet from an existing workbook to a new workbook using a macro. The sheet contains a Private Sub. I want the new workbook to have the Private Sub password protected. Is there a way of writing this into the macro of the originating workbook?
Does anyone know if it is possible to have a VBA code run after a workbook's name has been changed?
I was able to get what I wanted done by using the BeforeClose event.

Good morning,
My head office has implemented a new way of recording operatives working hours.
It used to be based on a persons name and then the number of hours worked on a job. You could get about 20 men on one sheet.
Now thy want it based on the Job so each job has its own sheet, so we are swimming in paper!
What I need is a page where I can have a drop down box with the following criteria:
Name
Trade
Week Ending
and then
The jobs that that person did, so:
The Job
The day
The Number of hours
I dont want to manually enter all of this in a load of different spreadsheets so i there a way of just using one and when i hit 'Enter Data' or something it populates pre-made spreadsheets that I can print?!
Ive attached what ive got so far.
Regards
James
Microsoft Excel 2003 - I need help creating a macro that will link a workbook file with hundreds of other workbooks to create a customer list. All my workbooks are in C:\Documents 2007\Bids\BID____.xls. All files begin with "BID". All workbooks are identical and I only need information from certain cells. (i.e. G8, A6, G6, etc.). I want all the information from each file to go onto one row of the customer list - a new file's information on each row. Does anyone know how to do this? I have spent all day working on it and am about to go out of my mind. I would really appreciate any help. Thanks.
I have a workbook that I want to share with many people so they can all edit at same time. When I share it, they cannot run macos, it errors out with

Any ideas on how to overcome this?
Thanks!

The macro is supposed to create hyperlinks... is this a no no? this is excel 2007...
Hi guys. I am not quite familiar with Excel, so would appreciate some help with this, even if this might seem like a simple question enough to many of you.
I received an Excel file from a colleague for updating of data. There was a dotted border surrounding the whole workbook which prevents any editing of sorts beyond the dotted border.
Is the dotted border a result of my colleague protecting the workbook?
Thanks for the help.
Regards,
Terry
The dotted border is probably due to page breaks. Protection is a separate issue -- you can check if the worksheet is protected by hovering over "Protection" under the "Tools" menu.
Greetings everyone,
I have a question I am hoping you can help me with.
I create Excel reports, where the first sheet is a Menu and a second sheet contains data. The Menu refers to the second page, and based on which options the user selects on the Menu, a graph on the menu page updates with the relevant information from the second data sheet.
I am wanting to publish this Menu sheet such that it can be accessed and used on a webpage -- therefore, it needs to refer to the second sheet. However, I would like to keep that second data sheet 'locked' so that it cannot be accessed on the webpage at all.
Is this possible?
(PS - I know I have to use Excel 2003 to publish an interactive workbook ... unless anyone has discovered a way to do this with 2007, which dropped this great feature).
Many thanks in advance.
You could make the sheet Hidden or via code XLSheetVeryHidden but the data will always be available.
