Close Excel process by Application.Quit - excel

I run VBA code in Access and update an existing Excel file.
I have to create xls files for each sales person and update the cells by grouping customer of monthly sales point by exporting data from an Access accdb file which is connected to Oracle database by ODBC driver.
We have about 50 sales persons and will have to create 2 files on each. If I can not fix the problem I will have 100 Excel processes on my PC. It might be frozen when run even if I successfully run the accdb with VBA.
Problems:
Can not close Excel process by Application.Quit which I tried to
open a xls file by Excel.Application.Workbooks object and it seems
be it's caught the xls file still even I used .Close
SaveChanges:=True
Can not process the VBA code again against same file cause of the
previous excel file operation process is left which I confirmed it
on task manager that I have to kill the process manually every time.
I googled on the internet and MSDN site. I could not find any good solution.

Below line helped, but any other opened xls also will be closed:

Excel How To Get Values From Another Excel with Fullpath?

I want to copy the data from a closed file I have selected and see it in the file containing this macro.
I am using Office365.
How can i copy data from this "FullPath" workbook ?
Private Sub PathName()
Dim FullPath As String
On Error GoTo extApp
FullPath = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="File Filter," & _
"*.xls;*.doc;*.xlsx;*.mdb;*.ppt;*.pdf", Title:="Please Select A File")
Exit Sub
extApp: Select Case Err.Number
Case 104
MsgBox ("104")
Exit Sub
Case Else
MsgBox "Runtime Error: " & Err.Number & vbNewLine & Err.Description
Stop
Resume
End Select
End Sub
You may try the following code modication, add in your other part of code to make it work as a complete sub:
Private Sub PathName()
Dim FullPath As String
Dim wb As Workbook
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
On Error GoTo extApp
FullPath = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="File Filter," & _
"*.xls;*.doc;*.xlsx;*.mdb;*.ppt;*.pdf", Title:="Please Select A File")
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(FullPath, , True)
wb.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:B" & lastrow).Copy
Sheet1.Range("A1").PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
'
'
'
wb.Close
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

combining multiple workbooks into one worksheet

I am currently trying to get data recorded into excel workbooks to be automatically copied over onto one "mass data" sheet. The files are named by date ex. "5-28-17". There is one for each day of the month. I'd like to collect all data into one sheet, as previously stated, in order by date descending.
I am currently using this code which should place all of the different workbooks onto their own worksheet, but I am having issues with that as well.
Option Explicit
Const path As String = "C:\Users\dt\Desktop\dt kte\"
Sub GetSheets()
Dim FileName As String
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim sheet As Worksheet
FileName = Dir(path & "*.xls*")
Do While FileName <> ""
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(FileName:=path & FileName, ReadOnly:=True)
For Each sheet In wb.Sheets
sheet.Copy After:=ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1)
Next sheet
wb.Close
FileName = Dir()
Loop
End Sub
I am trying to do this with VBA. There are 15 columns in the sheets I'm pulling from and the sheet I want to copy to. All line up perfectly. Is there a way to move the sheets from the WB I'm currently working on which should contain a worksheet for each WB onto one mass worksheet? Or can I pull all data directly from the folder with all of the workbooks saved by date to one worksheet?
I would use this AddIn.

It will do what you want, and a whole lot more as well.
Consider using an MS Access database. Not to worry if you do not have the Office GUI .exe app installed. Because you use a Windows machine, you do have its Jet/ACE SQL Engine (.dll files).

Run-time error '1004': SaveAs Method of object '_Workbook failed

I'm using the following code to save an updated workbook.
Private Sub cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click
gwbTarget.Activate <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
gwbTarget.SaveAs txtUpdWorkbookName.Value, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
frmLoanWBMain.Show
gwbTarget.Close
Set gwbTarget = Nothing
gWBPath = ""
gWBName = ""
lblWorkbookSaved.Enabled = True
cmdUpdateAnotherWorkbook.Visible = True
Exit_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click:
MsgBox "The following error occurred inthe [cmdSaveUpdateWB_Click] event handler." & vbCrLf & _
"Error Number: " & Err.Number & vbCrLf & "Error descriptioin: " & Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click
End Sub
As noted in the title, the SaveAs operation fails. I've determined that the failure is a result of having the workbook to be saved losing the focus. I can step through the code and get the error. Once the error is generated, selecting Debug in the error message box and then pressing F5 to run the code will result in the workbook saving correctly. Placing Debug.Print statements before and after the Activate method of the worbook to be saved indicates that the active wokbook is the workbook containing the code and the form used to update the workbook. Placing a print statement in the Immediate wondow that prints the ActiveWorkbook.Name will result in printing the name of the workbook to be saved - gwbTarget.Name. Pressing F5 then runs the code correctly.
I have been unable to figure out why the workbook to be saved loses the focus. I placed delays, multiple activation statements, local variables to use for the workbookto be saved, and for the name of the workbook to be saved. Any help or ideas as to why this is happening and how to fix it will be greatly appreciated.
I did make some changes. The code is listed below...
Private Sub cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click
Dim wbSave As Workbook
Set wbSave = gwbTarget
gwbTarget.Activate
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
''''''' gwbTarget.SaveAs txtUpdWorkbookName.Value, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
wbSave.SaveAs fileName:=txtUpdWorkbookName.Value, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
frmLoanWBMain.Show
gwbTarget.Close
Set gwbTarget = Nothing
gWBPath = ""
gWBName = ""
lblWorkbookSaved.Enabled = True
cmdUpdateAnotherWorkbook.Visible = True
Exit_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click:
Set wbSave = Nothing
Exit Sub
Err_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click:
MsgBox "The following error occurred inthe [cmdSaveUpdateWB_Click] event handler." & vbCrLf & _
"Error Number: " & Err.Number & vbCrLf & "Error descriptioin: " & Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click
End Sub
I've changed the code to more closely resemble the suggestion below. The listing is below, along with the variable definitions as they were upon entry into the program. The Excel code is running in a Citrix environment which may effect timing but shouldn't have any other effect on code execution.
I deleted the other code versions for brevity. The following code is what has worked. The key issue is that the workbook to be saved must be the active workbook when the SaveAs method is invoked.
Private Sub cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click
Dim wbSave As Workbook
Dim wsActive As Worksheet
Dim sNWBName As String
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
sNWBName = txtUpdWorkbookName.Value
Set wbSave = gwbTarget
wbSave.Activate
Set wsActive = wbSave.ActiveSheet
wbSave.SaveAs fileName:=sNWBName, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
frmLoanWBMain.Show
gwbTarget.Close
Set gwbTarget = Nothing
gWBPath = ""
gWBName = ""
lblWorkbookSaved.Enabled = True
cmdUpdateAnotherWorkbook.Visible = True
Exit_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click:
Set wbSave = Nothing
Exit Sub
Err_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click:
Dim strErrMsg As String
strErrMsg = "Error Number: " & Err.Number & " Desc: " & Err.Description & vbCrLf & _
"Source:" & Err.Source & vbCrLf & _
"Updating Workbook: " & vbCrLf & " " & gwbTarget.Name & vbCrLf & _
"Selected Worksheet: " & gwsTrgSheet.Name & vbCrLf & _
"Active Workbook: " & vbCrLf & " " & ActiveWorkbook.Name & vbCrLf & _
"Worksheet: " & ActiveSheet.Name & vbCrLf & _
"Code Segment: cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click event handler"
RecordErrorInfo strErrMsg
Resume Exit_cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click
End Sub
Why don't you start with something like this
Private Sub cmdSaveUpdatedWB_Click()
Dim gwbTarget As Workbook
Set gwbTarget = Workbooks("workbook_name.xlsm") 'correct extension needed, workbook must be open
wb.SaveAs Filename:=gwbTarget.Path, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
MsgBox "Last saved: " & gwbTarget.BuiltinDocumentProperties("Last Save Time")
End Sub
Change one thing at a time to make it more like yours and hopefully it'll all work fine!
Update
As per the comments. If you are trying to open, update and close hundreds of workbooks. You can use this as a guide:
Sub ChangeWorkbooks()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim wbPaths As Range, wbSaveFilenames As Range
With Sheet1 'you will need to update this and the ranges below
Set wbPaths = .Range("A1:A650") 'including file extensions
Set wbSaveFilenames = .Range("B1:B650") 'including file extensions
End With
Dim i As Integer, totalBooks As Integer
Dim wbTemp As Workbook
totalBooks = wbPaths.Rows.Count
For i = 1 To totalBooks
Application.StatusBar = "Updating workbook " & i & " of " & totalBooks 'display statusbar message to user
Set wbTemp = Workbooks.Open(wbPaths.Cells(i, 1), False)
'make changes to wbTemp here
wbTemp.SaveAs wbSaveFilenames.Cells(i, 1)
wbTemp.Close
Next i
Set wbTemp = Nothing
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Applicaton.StatusBar = False
End Sub

Importing and Exporting UserForms and Modules

HELP! I cannot find this anywhere... I have found plenty of explanations of .frx files but that is not the issue. I have exported 2 modules ".bas" and a userform ".frm" that also created the ".frx" binary file. The issue is that now when I import them to a new workbook with the code below, upon initializing the userform, the application opens and tries to run in the original workbook, in which I wrote the modules and designed the custom userform. Why is this happening and is there a way to get it to load the userform in the workbook that the form and modules were imported into?
Sub Import_VBA(WBName)
Dim VBc As Variant
Dim exportFolder As String, VBcExt As String, testFile As String
Dim newWB As Workbook
testFile = WBName
exportFolder = "y:\ECI\Database\Outputs\InterfaceApp"
Set newWB = Workbooks(testFile & ".xlsm")
