This may sound a little bit dumb, but I have never experienced anything like this before with SolidWorks macro. I have written a SolidWorks macro that inserts a BOM table into an assembly saves it as excel, and adds needed formulas to an excel file. However it works 1 time out of 2- 1st time- all good, 2nd time I get an error- "Run-time error '1004' Method 'Rows' of object '_Global' Failed", 3rd time- all good, 4th time I get the same error and so on and so on. I'm really new to excel macro so I don't know if I'm missing something or just stupid?

Not sure what's causing the behavior you're describing but here are a few thoughts that might point you in the right direction.
Objects in macros are persistent, meaning swModel (and other objects) will still exist after the macro is run. This is why you need to set it to 'Nothing' before using it again.
"Rows" is not defined anywhere so I'm surprised that code works at all. It must be late binding it to something... Rows is a method for an excel range but you're not using it that way. (range.Rows)
Try getting the row count explicitly in a double and using that instead. I suspect that will fix your issue.
I get 50 mails with Excel sheets per day. I want to add the first line of each Excel sheet to an existing Excel sheet located on my computer.
I know how to save a file from an email, and then access the first line. I would like to directly access it, without having to save the file.
Something like this:
Sub Merge_Reports(itm As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim wb_path As String
Dim app_master As Object
Dim wb_master As Object
Dim ws_master As Object
Dim objAtt As Outlook.Attachment
Dim ws_email As Object
Dim content As String
wb_path = "\\swi56prof01\UserData$\heinreca\Documents\Outlook-Dateien\AllData.xlsx"
Set app_master = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set wb_master = app_master.Workbooks.Open(wb_path)
Set ws_master = wb_master.Sheets(1)
For Each objAtt In itm.Attachments
Set ws_email = objAtt.Sheets(1)
content = ws_email.Cells("A1")
ws_master.Cells("A1") = content
End Sub
I am struggling with ws_email = objAtt.Sheets(1). I get the error
object doesn't support this property or method
I tried this instead of the line that results in the error.
Set app_email = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set wb_email = app_email.Workbooks.Open(objAtt)
Set ws_email = wb_email.Sheets(1)
I don't know what objAtt is in terms of data type and how to address the worksheet, so that I can copy the first line from it.
I found Copy Contents of Outlook Attachment and that I have to save the file before accessing it. Is there no other way?
There is no way to access the workbook without saving it to the disk. After saving the attached file to the disk you can use the same code:
Set wb_master = app_master.Workbooks.Open(wb_path)
Set ws_master = wb_master.Sheets(1)
where wb_path is the file path of your saved attachment (Excel file).
The Attachment.SaveAsFile method saves the attachment to the specified path. For example:
Sub SaveAttachment()
Dim myInspector As Outlook.Inspector
Dim myItem As Outlook.MailItem
Dim myAttachments As Outlook.Attachments
Set myInspector = Application.ActiveInspector
If Not TypeName(myInspector) = "Nothing" Then
If TypeName(myInspector.CurrentItem) = "MailItem" Then
Set myItem = myInspector.CurrentItem
Set myAttachments = myItem.Attachments
'Prompt the user for confirmation
Dim strPrompt As String
strPrompt = "Are you sure you want to save the first attachment in the current item to the Documents folder? If a file with the same name already exists in the destination folder, it will be overwritten with this copy of the file."
If MsgBox(strPrompt, vbYesNo + vbQuestion) = vbYes Then
myAttachments.Item(1).SaveAsFile Environ("HOMEPATH") & "\My Documents\" & _
myAttachments.Item(1).DisplayName
End If
Else
MsgBox "The item is of the wrong type."
End If
End If
End Sub
I have the following routine below that is meant to open an Excel spreadsheet and then go row by row to import the results into a table that is passed in. It works fine but the problem is if I try to open that same spreadsheet a second time I get a message that the file is in use and I have to Ctrl-Alt-Del to shut down Excel before I can use it again. I thought that the Set mySheet=Nothing and Set xlApp=Nothing would release the file but apparently not. What more can I do to make sure that Access lets go of the Excel file? Thanks in advance!
Public Sub MakeTempTable(strFilePath As String, tablename As String)
Dim mySheet As Object
Dim xlApp As Object
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim sql As String
sql = "DELETE * FROM " & tablename
DoCmd.RunSQL sql
Set rs = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(tablename)
Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set mySheet = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(strFilePath).Sheets(1)
xlApp.Visible = False
Set mySheet = xlApp.Sheets("Input")
Dim dRows As Double
dRows = 1
Dim dRow As Double, dCol As Double
dRow = 2
On Error GoTo ERR
Do
dCol = 1
rs.AddNew
If mySheet.cells(dRow, 3) = "" Then Exit Do
Do
If mySheet.cells(dRow, dCol).Value <> "_END_" Then
rs.Fields(dCol).Value = Nz(mySheet.cells(dRow, dCol).Value, "")
dCol = dCol + 1
Else
Exit Do
End If
Loop
rs.Update
dRow = dRow + 1
Loop
EXITSUB:
Set mySheet = Nothing
Set xlApp = Nothing
Exit Sub
ERR:
If ERR.Number = 3265 Then MsgBox "The species selected are incompatible. Canceling import.", vbCritical, "IMPORT ERROR"
GoTo EXITSUB
End Sub
Try using
xlApp.Quit
When you set xlApp to nothing you are only clearing the object within the procedure, you aren't doing anything to the actual Excel instance. All that setting XXX = nothing allows you to do is then reuse that object.
You will need to legally close the workbooks that are open as in
xlApp.Workbooks.Close
EXITSUB:
This will close the instances that are open.
Prior to this, kill all the instances or reboot your machine to clear all the instances that are open.
I have two versions of code that i have tried that are slightly different and neither works unfortunately. I need some help figuring out why and how to do what i need to do thanks
The first bit of code somehow immediately ends the loop and doesn't meet the initial conditional expression though I am not sure why because it should call all .docx files in that folder
the second bit of code throws an error Invalid Use of Property with this line Set wApp.Visible = True and I do not know why
First version
Dim folder As String
Dim doc As Document
folder = "G:\GAV\Educational On Assignment Folder\On Assignment Tour Reports\2019\On Tour Questionnaire"
file = Dir(folder & "*.dox*")
r = 1
Do While Len(file) < 0
Set doc = Documents.Open(Filename:=folder & file)
ActiveDocument.Selection.WholeStory
Selection.Copy
Workbooks("Reports Excel").Activate
Cells(1, r).Paste
doc.Close
r = r + 1
file = Dire
Loop
Second version
Dim wApp As Word.Application
Dim wDoc As Word.Document
Dim mySource As Object
Set obj = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set mySource = obj.getfolder("G:\GAV\Educational On Assignment Folder\On Assignment Tour Reports\2019\On Tour Questionnaire")
For Each file In mySource.Files(Word.Application)
If Len(file.Name) > 0 And InStr(1, file.Name, "$") = 0 Then
Set wApp.Visible = True
Set wDoc = wApp.Documents.Open(muSource & "\" & file.Name, , ReadOnly)
ActiveDocument.Selection.WholeStory
Selection.Copy
Workbooks("Reports Excel").Activate
Cells(1, r).Paste
doc.Close
r = r + 1
wApp.Quit
Set wApp = Nothing
End If

I need Excel to open each file in the folder, copy its entire contents and paste to a column in Excel. should be simple
I'm writing a script where I wish to write an HTML doc to a string from sharepoint.
Dim Content As String
Dim strShare As String: strShare = "\\link\to\share.html"
Dim iFile As Integer: iFile = FreeFile
Open strShare For Input As #iFile
Content = Input(LOF(iFile), iFile)
Close #iFile
However, I find I get a "path/file access error" every time I run the script for the first time upon boot. Once I visit "\link\to\share.html" in IE for the first time, the path begins to resolve in the VBA script.
My only thought is that IE is performing some sort of "DNS Cache" that VBA can't do. Currently my workaround is to catch the error and force the URL to open in IE the first time the script is run. After that, every other HTML file under that share loads fine.
As a test, I tried switching between from what I understand is http:// formatting (forward slash) and WebDAV formatting (\\ formating), and only the backslash separated paths ever work. I also tried to resolve the share to an IP and try it that way, but that never worked.
My last thought is to try mapping the share to a drive letter name and then specifically accessing the share with G:\link\to\mapped\share.html. But I don't see this as an elegant solution, and wonder if it will receive the same error any way.
Is there something blatant that I do not understand about WebDAV, Windows file handling, and VBA file inputs? There's something weird going on under the hood with resolving that shared domain, and I can't seem to debug it.
See if this helps here and an example below that I used.
2 things though: I only worked with Excel files on Sharepoint and I was already logged in there.
Dim oFSO As Object
'Dim oFolder As Object 'if needed
'Dim oFile As Object 'if needed
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder("\\sharepoint.site.com#SSL\DavWWWRoot\sites\")
'For Each oFolder In oFolder.SubFolders 'loops through folders
' For Each oFile In oFolder.Files 'loops through files
' 'do stuff
' Next oFile

I'm a bit confused about what you want to do. Do you want to check out files from SP and check files back into SP?
Sub testing()
Dim docCheckOut As String
'docCheckOut = "//office.bt.com/sites/Training/Design Admin/Training Plan/adamsmacro.xlsm"
docCheckOut = "http://your_path_here/ExcelList.xlsb"
Call UseCheckOut(docCheckOut)
End Sub
Sub UseCheckOut(docCheckOut As String)
' Determine if workbook can be checked out.
If Workbooks.CanCheckOut(docCheckOut) = True Then
Workbooks.CheckOut docCheckOut
Else
MsgBox "Unable to check out this document at this time."
End If
End Sub
Or...do you want to list files in a SP folder?
Sub ListFiles()
Dim folder As Variant
Dim f As File
Dim fs As New FileSystemObject
Dim RowCtr As Integer
Dim FPath As String
Dim wb As Workbook
RowCtr = 1
FPath = "http://excel-pc:43231/Shared Documents"
For Each f In FPath
'Set folder = fs.GetFolder("C:\Users\Excel\Desktop\Ryan_Folder")
'For Each f In folder.Files
Cells(RowCtr, 1).Value = f.Name
RowCtr = RowCtr + 1
Next f
End Sub
Sub test()
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("C:\Users\Excel\Desktop\Ryan_Folder")
'Set colSubfolders = objFolder.SubFolders
'For Each objSubfolder In colSubfolders
Cells(RowCtr, 1).Value = f.Name
RowCtr = RowCtr + 1
'Next
End Sub
