error 13 in Inputbox/ Switch case statement - vba

I tried to a macro to get top 3 street addresses from a keyword and let the user choose one. However, I kept running into error 13( mismatched data type) on my "case 1" statement or in the last input box. Any help?I am relatively new to VBA.

Error 3000 Using VBA and HCL ( Lotus) notes

I made a code to send some emails, using HCL NOTES and Excel, but I have been stuck.
ERROR 3000 appears when going through the line ".SEND 0, vaRecipient". I think what happens is that the connection with the database is lost, after going through the procedure of attaching an image to the body of the mail. Since if I remove those lines of code, no error arises.

You can't work with the message body both as Notes rich text (the first piece of code) and as MIME. You need to pick one or the other. I'm guessing you're going to pick MIME, in which case you are going to need to create a text/plain part and populate it with your three paragraphs of text.

Send query result in Outlook Email with Number formatted table

I want to send an email in Outlook that includes my query result from Access. The body of the email includes a table (columns/rows) with the results. I want to use a Number format with commas xx,xxx when value is a number.
I recycled this code I found here. How do I format the table output?
Public Sub NewEmail()
Dim olApp As Object
Dim olItem As Variant
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rec As DAO.Recordset
Dim strQry As String
Dim aHead(1 To 3) As String
Dim aRow(1 To 3) As String
Dim aBody() As String
Dim lCnt As Long
'Create the header row
aHead(1) = "Date"
aHead(2) = "Request Type"
aHead(3) = "Total" 'I want this to be comma separate number format?
lCnt = 1
ReDim aBody(1 To lCnt)
aBody(lCnt) = "<HTML><body><table border='2'><tr><th>" & Join(aHead, "</th><th>") & "</th></tr>"
'Create each body row
strQry = "SELECT * From Email_Query"
Set db = CurrentDb
Set rec = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(strQry)
If Not (rec.BOF And rec.EOF) Then
Do While Not rec.EOF
lCnt = lCnt + 1
ReDim Preserve aBody(1 To lCnt)
aRow(1) = rec("Test1")
aRow(2) = rec("Test2")
aRow(3) = rec("Test3")
aBody(lCnt) = "<tr><td>" & Join(aRow, "</td><td>") & "</td></tr>"
rec.MoveNext
Loop
End If
aBody(lCnt) = aBody(lCnt) & "</table></body></html>"
'create the email
Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.application")
Set olItem = olApp.CreateItem(0)
olItem.display
olItem.To = "example#example.com"
olItem.Subject = "Test E-mail"
olItem.htmlbody = Join(aBody, vbNewLine)
olItem.display
End Sub
Try something like this:
aRow(1) = Format(rec("YourDateField"), "yyyy-mm-dd")
aRow(2) = rec("YourRequestType")
aRow(3) = Format(rec("YourTotal"), "0.000")
If that leaves a dot as the decimal separator, try:
aRow(3) = Replace(LTrim(Str(rec("YourTotal"))), ".", ",")
If comma is your thousand separator, try:
aRow(3) = Format(rec("YourTotal"), "00,000")

I know this is old, but I was looking for the same thing and found this article. I'm still trying it out, but wanted to share before I got distracted with my real job.
From: SixSigmaGuy on microsoft.public.sharepoint.development-and-programming.narkive.com/...
Wanted to share my findings, so far. Surprisingly, I could not find
anything in the SharePoint Designer object/class that supported versions,
but the Office, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint objects do support it.. It
wasn't easy to find, but once I found it, it works great, as long as the
file in the document library is one of the Office documents.
Here's some sample code, written in Excel VBA, showing how to get the
version information for a paritcular SharePoint Document Library file
created in Excel:
Public viRow As Long
Function fCheckVersions(stFilename As String) As Boolean
' stFilename is the full URL to a document in a Document Library.
'
Dim wb As Excel.Workbook
Dim dlvVersions As Office.DocumentLibraryVersions
Dim dlvVersion As Office.DocumentLibraryVersion
Dim stExtension As String
Dim iPosExt As Long
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(viRow, 1) = stFilename
If Workbooks.CanCheckOut(stFilename) = True Then
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(stFilename, , True)
Set dlvVersions = wb.DocumentLibraryVersions
If dlvVersions.IsVersioningEnabled = True Then
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(viRow, 3) = "Num
Versions = " & dlvVersions.Count
For Each dlvVersion In dlvVersions
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(viRow, 4) = "Version: " & dlvVersion.Index
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(viRow, 5) = "Modified Date: " & dlvVersion.Modified
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(viRow, 6) = "Modified by: " & dlvVersion.ModifiedBy
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(viRow, 7) = "Comments: " & dlvVersion.Comments
viRow = viRow + 1
Next dlvVersion
End If
wb.Close False
End If
Set wb = Nothing
DoEvents
End Function`
Fortunately, I discovered that Excel can open non-Excel files in most
cases. I.e., I can, for example, open a jpg file in Excel and use the
dlvVersions collection for that file.

How to get Google Places API (nearby search) data to Excel VBA

I have Excel sheet with a lot of addresses (and the matching coordinates). I want to use Google Places API to create a function that gets me e. g. all restaurants surrounding a specific address. I try to output the names of all matching restaurants, the issue is that the output is just "0".
Here is my code:
Function Nearby(Lat As Long, Lng As Long) As Variant
'Variablen definieren
Dim Request As New XMLHTTP30
Dim Results As New DOMDocument30
Dim StatusNode As IXMLDOMNode
Dim NearbyNode As IXMLDOMNode
On Error GoTo errorHandler
Request.Open "GET", "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/xml?location=" & Lat & "," & Lng & "&radius=50&type=restaurant&key=AIzaSyA5nFPM_9Ss_X410c35WfoP_obP5UwppRU"""
Request.send
Results.LoadXML Request.responseText
Set StatusNode = Results.SelectSingleNode("//status")
Select Case UCase(StatusNode.Text)
Case "OK"
Set NearbyNode = Results.SelectSingleNode("//result/name[1]/name[2]/name[3]/name[4]")
Nearby = NearbyNode.Text
Case "ZERO_RESULTS"
Nearby = "The address does not exists"
Case Else
Nearby = "Error"
End Select
errorHandler:
Set StatusNode = Nothing
Set NearbyNode = Nothing
Set Results = Nothing
Set Request = Nothing
End Function
I slightly reworked your code, try the below example:
Option Explicit
Sub TestNearby()
Dim NearbyNames
Dim NearbyState As String
Nearby "-33.8670522", "151.1957362", "1000", "hospital", NearbyNames, NearbyState
If NearbyState = "OK" Then
MsgBox Join(NearbyNames, vbCrLf)
Else
MsgBox NearbyState
End If
End Sub
Sub Nearby(Lat As String, Lng As String, Dist As String, PointType As String, Names As Variant, State As String)
Dim Request As Object
Dim Results As Object
Dim Node
On Error GoTo errorHandler
Set Request = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
Request.Open "GET", "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/xml?" & _
"location=" & Lat & "," & Lng & _
"&radius=" & Dist & _
"&type=" & PointType & _
"&key=AIzaSyA5nFPM_9Ss_X410c35WfoP_obP5UwppRU", False
Request.send
Set Results = Request.responseXML
Select Case UCase(Results.SelectSingleNode("//status").Text)
Case "OK"
With CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
For Each Node In Results.SelectNodes("//PlaceSearchResponse/result/name")
.Add .Count, Node.nodeTypedValue
Next
Names = .Items()
End With
State = "OK"
Case "ZERO_RESULTS"
State = "No results"
Case Else
State = "Wrong request"
End Select
Exit Sub
errorHandler:
State = "Error"
End Sub
The output for me is:
I changed Lat,Lng to type double and modified the Request.Open "GET" string
Sub Nearby()
Dim Request As New XMLHTTP30
Dim Results As New DOMDocument30
Dim StatusNode As IXMLDOMNode
Dim NearbyNode As IXMLDOMNode
Dim Node As IXMLDOMNode
On Error GoTo errorHandler
Dim Lat As Double 'Chicago
Lat = 41.878114
Dim Lng As Double
Lng = -87.629798

Request.send

Set StatusNode = Results.SelectSingleNode("//status")
Select Case UCase(StatusNode.Text)
Case "OK"
For Each Node In Results.SelectNodes("//PlaceSearchResponse/result/name")
Debug.Print Node.nodeTypedValue
Next
Case "ZERO_RESULTS"
Debug.Print "The address does not exists"
Case Else
Debug.Print "Error"
End Select
errorHandler:
Set StatusNode = Nothing
Set NearbyNode = Nothing
Set Results = Nothing
Set Request = Nothing
End Sub
This function returns a string of comma separated values (albeit needs more error trapping) :
Public Function NearBy(Lat As Double, Lng As Double) As Variant

excel vba - query on a spreadsheet

if i have these 2 tables:
is there some sort of excel vba code (using ADO) that could acheive these desired results which could utilise any query i put in the SQL sheet?
Here's some VBA code that allows you to read an Excel range using the text SQL driver. It's quite a complex example, but I'm guessing that you came here because you're a fairly advanced user with a more complex problem than the examples we see on other sites.
Before I post the code in full, here's the original 'sample usage' comment in the core function, FetchXLRecordSet:
' Sample usage:
'
' Set rst = FetchXLRecordSet(SQL, "TableAccountLookup", "TableCashMap")
'
' Where the query uses two named ranges, "TableAccountLookup" and "TableCashMap"
' as shown in this SQL statement:
'
' SELECT
' B.Legal_Entity_Name, B.Status,
' SUM(A.USD_Settled) As Settled_Cash
' FROM
' [TableAccountLookup] AS A,
' [TableCashMap] AS B
' WHERE
' A.Account IS NOT NULL
' AND B.Cash_Account IS NOT NULL
' AND A.Account = B.Cash_Account
' GROUP BY
' B.Legal_Entity_Name,
' B.Status
It's clunky, forcing you to name the tables (or list the range addresses in full) when you run the query, but it simplifies the code.

Postscript: Running SQL on Excel 'Table' Objects
For completeness, here's the code for a barebones 'read Excel Table objects with SQL' function that handles all the text-file hacking in the background.
I'm posting it now, a while after my original answer went up, because everyone's using the rich 'table' object for tabulated data in Excel:
' Run a JOIN query on your tables, and write the field names and data to Sheet1:
SaveTable "Table1"
SaveTable "Table2"
SQL= SQL & "SELECT * "
SQL= SQL & " FROM Table1 "
SQL= SQL & " LEFT JOIN Table2 "
SQL= SQL & " ON Table1.Client = Table2.Client"
RunSQL SQL, Sheet1.Range("A1")
...And the full listing (give or take a couple of functions in the previous code dump) is:
Public Function RunSQL(SQL As String, TargetRange As Excel.Range, Optional DataSetName As String)
' Run SQL against table files in the local ExcelSQL folder and write the results to a target range
' The full implementation of ExcelSQL provides a fully-featured UI on a control sheet
' This is a cut-down version which runs everything automatically, without audit & error-reporting
' SQL can be read from ranges using the ReadRangeSQL function
' If no target range object is passed in, and a Data set name is specified, the recordset will be
' saved as [DataSetName].csv in the local Excel SQL folder for subsequent SQL queries
' If no target range is specified and no Data set name specified, returns the recordet object

Share and enjoy: this is all a horrible hack, but it gives you a stable SQL platform.
And we still don't have a stable 'native' platform for SQL on Excel: the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.14.0 Excel data provider still has the same memory leak as Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 and the Excel ODBC driver that preceded it, twenty years ago.
Some notes:
sFullName = ActiveWorkbook.FullName
sSheet = ActiveSheet.Name
Set cn = CreateObject("adodb.connection")
scn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" _
& sFullName _
& ";Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1"";"
cn.Open scn
Set rs = CreateObject("adodb.recordset")
For Each c In Sheet4.UsedRange
sSQL = sSQL & c.Value & " "
Next
rs.Open sSQL, cn
Sheet5.Range("a10").CopyFromRecordset rs
There is an ODBC driver for Excel.
See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/178717
And: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms711711%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
In order to get data out of a database and into Excel you do the following steps.
Record a macro
Import external data, choose a new source, select DSN ODBC as the type of source.
Now choose Excel-file as the type of ODBC source.
Pick the Excel sheet you want to query.
Every table needs to be in a named range, leave the option select a table checked, Excel will not allow us to insert a query just yet.
Follow the wizard and save the .odc file. Open it again and choose edit query. Now you can insert your select statement.
Stop recording and edit the recorded macro to suit your needs.
It looks like source and target are odbc queries. You need to parse the table name out of those queries and replace SoureTable and TargetTable in your query with the right table names.
Sub ExecuteSQL()

Else
sReturn = Mid$(sSql, lFromStart + Len(sFROM), lFromEnd - lFromStart - Len(sFROM) - 1)
End If

End Function
Another problem that you might run into is the way Excel (or MSQuery) constructs the SQL statements in an external data query. If you leave it as the default, you'll likely get something like this
SELECT * FROM `C:\somepath\myfile.mdb`.tblTable1 tblTable1 WHERE ...
I have no idea why it does it that way, but you can change it to
SELECT * FROM tblTable1 WHERE ...
and the above code should work. Parsing SQL statements sucks, so don't expect this to be easy. Once you think you have all the possibilities, another will pop up.
Finally, you should get the error "Too few parameters, expected 1" or something similar. In SourceTable, the first field is emp_no, but you have emp_id in your SQL. Make sure your SQL in the SQL sheet is correct. It can be frustrating trying to track down those errors.
I'm using very simple code which helps me to query worksheet range :
Sub hello_jet()
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim strQuery As String
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
With cn
.Provider = "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0"
.ConnectionString = "Data Source=C:\yourPath\ADO_test.xls " & _
";Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;"""
.Open
End With
'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 for database engine built in Windows 7 64
strQuery = "SELECT a,sum(c) FROM [Sheet1$A1:C6] GROUP BY a;"
