I'm simply trying to "Cut" a range of cells from one sheet to another. I've never been able to make the ".Cut" work but the ".Copy" works with an error ("Run-time error '424': Object required"). I don't understand why ".Cut" doesn't work as simple as ".Copy" and what the error is.
Private Sub mti_line62_Click()
Dim infreq As Worksheet
Dim freq As Worksheet
Dim mti_player As Range
Dim line62 As Range
Set infreq = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("INFREQ")
Set freq = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Frequent")
Set mti_player = infreq.Range("D" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1)
Set line62 = freq.Range("D62:Q62")
mti_player.PasteSpecial = freq.Range("D62:Q62").Copy
'mti_player.PasteSpecial = freq.Range("D62:Q62").Cut
'mti_player.PasteSpecial = line62.Copy
'freq.Range("D62:Q62").Clear
Application.CutCopyMode = False
infreq.Activate
End Sub
I want to resize a chart table in PowerPoint via VBA. I've read the following solution multiple times (Resize Listobject Table dynamically with VBA) and it does seem precisely what I need, but for some reason (maybe because I'm running the macro from PowerPoint) it gives me the following error: Automation error (Error 440).
I plan to use the Resize method because I'm updating a PPT chart data table from another Excel file without using the .Activate method (I opted to not use the .Activate because it opened many charts workbooks after the Macro finished execution, even with multiple Waits and Excel.Application.Quit and .Close).
It works great, the charts workbooks do not flash on the screen and the values are copied fast, BUT... the table size is not correct. It only includes the 1st line of the ppt chart data table, and thus my chart is rendered incomplete.
Dim Line As Range Dim financialPartner As String, financialProject As String
financialPartner = excl.Workbooks("HNK-Status-CDAU.xlsx").Sheets("Financial").Cells(int_lin, 2)
financialProject = excl.Workbooks("HNK-Status-CDAU.xlsx").Sheets("Financial").Cells(int_lin, 3)
Dim found As Boolean
found = False
Dim lastRow As Long
Dim financialChart As Chart
Dim financialChartData As Range
Dim financialChartTable As ListObject
Dim financialChartTablews As Worksheet
lastRow = ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Shapes("RevenuesVolume").Chart.chartData.Workbook.Sheets(1).Range("A1048576").End(xlUp).Row
Set financialChart = ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Shapes("RevenuesVolume").Chart
Set financialChartTablews = ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Shapes("RevenuesVolume").Chart.chartData.Workbook.Worksheets(1)
Set financialChartTable = financialChartTablews.ListObjects("Tabela1")
For Each Line In chartDataTable.DataBodyRange.Rows
Dim lineNumber As Long
lineNumber = Line.Row
If ((Line.Columns(1) <> financialPartner) Or (Line.Columns(2) <> financialProject)) And found Then
Exit For
End If
If (Line.Columns(1) = financialPartner) And (Line.Columns(2) = financialProject) Then
found = True
With financialChart.chartData
Set financialChartData = .Workbook.Worksheets(1).ListObjects(1).Range
financialChartData.Range("A" & lastRow).Value = chartDataWs.Cells(lineNumber, 4)
financialChartData.Range("B" & lastRow).Value = chartDataWs.Cells(lineNumber, 5)

I have some basic VBA that is allowing a user to take a field from one table and use it to update another table. It works fine when I step through it, but nothing happens when I run it using F5. I don't get any errors, just nothing happens.
I think it could possibly be that the value hasn't been assigned to one of the variables before the next step occurs, but I've never had that problem before, and I've always assumed VBA wouldn't move to the next step until it had completed the one it's on?
My code is below:
Option Explicit
Sub acceptDateComp()
'set data type
Dim dtType As String
dtType = "opportunity"
'declare sheets
Dim wsComp As Worksheet
Set wsComp = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(dtType & "Comp")
Dim wsBCE As Worksheet
Set wsBCE = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(dtType & "Snapshot")
Dim wsOffline As Worksheet
Set wsOffline = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(dtType & "Database")
'declare tables
Dim bce As ListObject
Set bce = wsBCE.ListObjects(dtType & "Snapshot")
Dim offline As ListObject
Set offline = wsOffline.ListObjects(dtType & "Database")
Dim dateComp As ListObject
Set dateComp = wsComp.ListObjects(dtType & "DateComp")
'declare heights and areas
Dim offlineRange As Range
Set offlineRange = offline.ListColumns(1).DataBodyRange
'check for acceptance, then change values
Dim i As Long
Dim dateID As Long
Dim offlineRow As Long
Dim bceDate As String
For i = 2 To dateComp.ListRows.Count + 1
If dateComp.ListColumns(6).Range(i).Value = "Yes" Then
dateID = dateComp.ListColumns(1).Range(i).Value
offlineRow = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(dateID, offlineRange, 0)
bceDate = dateComp.ListRows(i - 1).Range(5).Value
offline.ListRows(offlineRow).Range(12).Value = bceDate
End If
Next i
Call opportunityComp
End Sub
I have a list of files with the same structure and I want to extract some information from columns A, B, and C and print it to another workbook.
I found a way to do it for a single file, but now I don't understand how can I do it using the list of given files. I tried using collections, but it doesn't work.
Here's what I came up with:
Sub Pulsante1_Click()
Dim FileGeStar As Variant
Dim myCol As Collection
Set myCol = New Collection
myCol.Add "C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\articoli_def.xlsx"
myCol.Add "C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\pippo\SS20_def_ENG.xlsx"
For Each FileGeStar In myCol
Workbooks.Open Filename:=FileGeStar
FileGeStar = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Name
Dim Code As String
Dim Description As String
Dim FilePath As String
Dim i As Long
i = 2
While Range("A" & i) <> ""
FilePath = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Path
Code = Trim(Range("A" & i).Value)
Description = Trim(Range("B" & i).Value)
Workbooks("Report.xlsm").Worksheets(1).Range("A" & i).Value = FilePath
Workbooks("Report.xlsm").Worksheets(1).Range("B" & i).Value = Code
Workbooks("Report.xlsm").Worksheets(1).Range("C" & i).Value = Description
i = i + 1
Wend
Next FileGeStar
End Sub
What can I do?
This might look like an overkill, but I hope the code and comment's are self explanatory:
Option Explicit
Sub Pulsante1_Click()
Dim DestinationWorkbook As Workbook
Set DestinationWorkbook = ThisWorkbook 'I think report.xlsm is the workbook running the code
'if report.xlsm is not the workbook running the code then change thisworkbook for workbooks("Report.xlsm")
'add as many paths as you need to, another way would be to write them in a sheet and loop through to fill the array
Dim MyPaths As Variant
MyPaths = Array("C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\articoli_def.xlsx", "C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\pippo\SS20_def_ENG.xlsx")
'Declare a workbook variable for the source workbooks
Dim SourceWorkbook As Workbook
'Declare a long variable to loop through your path's array
Dim i As Long
'loop through the start to the end of your array (will increase as the array does)
For i = LBound(MyPaths) To UBound(MyPaths)
Set SourceWorkbook = OpenWorkbook(MyPaths(i)) 'this will set the workbook variable and open it
CopyData SourceWorkbook, DestinationWorkbook 'this will copy the data to your destination workbook
SourceWorkbook.Close , False
Set SourceWorkbook = Nothing
Next i
End Sub
Private Function OpenWorkbook(FullPath As String) As Workbook
Set OpenWorkbook = Workbooks.Open(FullPath, False, True)
End Function
Private Sub CopyData(wbO As Workbook, wbD As Workbook)
'this procedure calculates the last row of your source workbook and loops through all it's data
'later calls the AddDataToMasterWorkbook procedure to paste the data
With wbO.Sheets(1) 'Im assuming your source workbook has the data on sheet1
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Dim FilePath As String
FilePath = wbO.Path
Dim Code As String
Dim Description As String
Dim C As Range
For Each C In .Range("A2:A" & LastRow) 'this will loop from A2 to the last row with data
Code = Trim(C)
Description = Trim(C.Offset(, 1))
AddDataToMasterWorkbook wbD, FilePath, Code, Description
Next C
End With
End Sub
Private Sub AddDataToMasterWorkbook(wb As Workbook, FilePath As String, Code As String, Description As String)
'This procedure calculates the last row without data and adds the items you need every time
With wb.Sheets(1)
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row + 1
.Range("A" & LastRow) = FilePath
.Range("B" & LastRow) = Code
.Range("C" & LastRow) = Description
End With
End Sub
To loop though files, you can indeed use a collection, or an array, you can also loop through all files in directory with certain extension, or partial file name. Check out DIR function.
Best not to use ActiveWorkbook, better approach would be to set a workbook object like so: Set wb = Workbooks.Open(fullPathToYourWorkbook).
For what you're doing, there's no need to go row by row, much more efficient way would be to copy entire range, not only it's a lot quicker but also it's only 1 line of code; assuming your destination is ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1) and wb object is set: wb.Range("A:C").Copy Destination:=Thisworkbook.Sheets(1).Range("A:C"). If you need to edit copied data (trim or whatever) consider Range Replace method.
However, if you want to go row by row for whatever reason, as BigBen mentioned in the comment - get rid of While loop.
It's a good idea to set Application.ScreenUpdating to False when opening/closing workbooks, then back to True once it's all done. It will prevent user from accidentaly clicking something etc and will make it look like it's not opening any workbook.
Here's my approach (untested) assuming the workbook you want to copy data to is Workbooks("Report.xlsm").Worksheets(1):
Sub Pulsante1_Click()
'set workbook object for the destination workbook
set wb_dest = Workbooks("Report.xlsm").Worksheets(1)
'disable screen updating
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each target_wb In Array("C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\articoli_def.xlsx", "C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\pippo\SS20_def_ENG.xlsx")
'set wb object and open workbook
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(target_wb)
'find last row in this workbooks in columns A:B (whichever is greater)
LastRow = wb.Range("A:B").Find(What:="*", After:=wb.Range("A1"), SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).row
'copy required data
wb.Range("A1:B" & LastRow).Copy Destination:=wb_dest.Range("B1:C" & LastRow)
'fill column A with path to the file
wb_dest.Range("A1:A" & LastRow).Value = wb.Path
'close workbook
wb.Close False
Next
'enable screen updating
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Obviously an array is not the best approach if you have loads of different files, collection would be a lot clearer to read and edit in the future, unless you want to create a dynamic array, but there's no need for that in my opinion. I didn't declare variables or write any error handling, it's a simple code just to point you in the right direction.
If you want to disable workbook events or/and alerts, you can set Application.DisplayAlerts and Application.EnableEvents to False temporarily.
I'm trying to find the rows with data in my source data sheet and then copy some of the columns into various places in my destination worksheet using VBA. I have successfully done this for a list with 12k lines but when I do some test data, it only copies the first 12 rows out of 19 rows of data....
Sub Header_Raw()
Dim dataBook As Workbook
Dim Header_Raw As Worksheet, Header As Worksheet
Dim dataSource As Range, dataDest As Range
Dim sourceDataRowCount As Integer, index As Integer
Set dataBook = Application.ThisWorkbook
Set sheetSource = dataBook.Sheets("Header_Raw")
Set sheetDest = dataBook.Sheets("Header")
Set dataSource = sheetSource.Range("B4", _
sheetSource.Range("J90000").End(xlUp))
sourceDataRowCount = dataSource.Rows.Count
Set dataDest = sheetDest.Range("B13", "B" & _
sourceDataRowCount)
For index = 1 To sourceDataRowCount
dataDest(index, 1).Value = dataSource(index, 1).Value
dataDest(index, 2).Value = dataSource(index, 2).Value
Next index
End Sub
If you can help tell me what I have done wrong, that would be great
thanks
Julie
Make your life a bit easier with simple debugging. Run the following:
Sub HeaderRaw()
'Dim all the variables here
Set dataBook = Application.ThisWorkbook
Set SheetSource = dataBook.Sheets("Header_Raw")
Set sheetDest = dataBook.Sheets("Header")
Set dataSource = SheetSource.Range("B4", SheetSource.Range("J90000").End(xlUp))
SheetSource.Activate
dataSource.Select
End Sub
Now you will see what is your dataSource, as far as it is selected. Probably it is not what you expect.
