I am trying to create a loop to copy data in cells in source worksheet one by one and paste in a particular cell in target worksheet. Once the cell is pasted, i need it to save a copy of the file then paste the next value in the source worksheet.The code is:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim wbTarget As Worksheet
Dim wbSource As Worksheet
Dim SaveLoc As String
Dim FName As String
Dim i As Long
Set wbSource = Sheets("Sheet3")
Set wbTarget = Sheets("Sheet1")
wbSource.Activate
Range("A1").Activate
Do While ActiveCell.Value <> ""
DoEvents
ActiveCell.Copy
For i = 1 To 30
wbTarget.Activate
With ActiveSheet
wbTarget.Range("E5").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteColumnWidths
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
ThisWorkbook.Save
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End With
SaveLoc = "H:\Services\Test Output\Term_"
FName = Range("B5")
ActiveWorkbook.SaveCopyAs FileName:=SaveLoc & FName & ".xls" 'FileFormat:=xlNormal
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Next i
wbSource.Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Loop
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
When I run this, I get a
run-time error 1004.
Please advise on how to resolve this.
Thank You in Advance.
Try the code below, without using Activate, ActiveCell, Select and Selection, instead use fully qualifies Ranges and Worksheet objects.
Explanation inside the code as comments (also some question about your code).
Code
Option Explicit
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim wbTarget As Worksheet
Dim wbSource As Worksheet
Dim SaveLoc As String
Dim FName As String
Dim i As Long, lRow As Long
Set wbSource = Sheets("Sheet3")
Set wbTarget = Sheets("Sheet1")
' SaveLoc string never changes, doesn;t need to be set every time inside the loops
SaveLoc = "H:\Services\Test Output\Term_"
' you never qualifed the range with on of the worksheets (I'm guessing here it's "Sheet3"
FName = wbTarget.Range("B5").Value
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
lRow = 1
Do While wbSource.Range("A" & lRow).Value <> ""
wbSource.Range("A" & lRow).Copy
For i = 1 To 30
' 2 lines below you are pasting to cell "E5" don't you mean to increment with the row number (i variable)
wbTarget.Range("E5").PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
wbTarget.Range("E5").PasteSpecial xlPasteColumnWidths
ThisWorkbook.Save
Application.CutCopyMode = False
' have this line before trying to save a copy of this workbook
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ThisWorkbook.SaveCopyAs Filename:=SaveLoc & FName & ".xls" 'FileFormat:=xlNormal
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Next i
lRow = lRow + 1
Loop
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Before starting to explain my problem, sorry for the messy code, I'm still a beginner in VBA and thank you for your help in advance.
So what I'm trying to do is getting a way of copying the contents of some workbooks in a folder to my master file, which is kinda like a data base. The trick here is that I need the 2 sheets from the file to be copied into the 1st sheet of my master file.
In the mean time and looking through a lot of posts, like this one,
VBA Loop through files in folder and copy/paste to master file, I came up with this code:
Option Explicit
Sub AllFiles()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.EnableCancelKey = xlDisabled
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim folderPath As String
Dim Filename As String
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim Masterwb As Workbook
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim NewSht As Worksheet
Dim FindRng As Range
Dim PasteRow As Long
Dim i As Integer
' set master workbook
Set Masterwb = ThisWorkbook
folderPath = Sheets("teste").Range("A1").Value 'contains folder path
If Right(folderPath, 1) <> "\" Then folderPath = folderPath & "\"
For i = 1 To Sheets("leit_func").Range("S2")
Filename = Dir(folderPath & Sheets("teste").Range("A3"))
Do While Filename <> ""
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(folderPath & Filename)
If Len(wb.Name) > 35 Then
MsgBox "Sheet's name can be up to 31 characters long, shorten the Excel file name"
wb.Close False
GoTo Exit_Loop
Else
' add a new sheet with the file's name (remove the extension)
'-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Set NewSht = Masterwb.Worksheets.Add(After:=Masterwb.Worksheets(1))
'NewSht.Name = Replace(wb.Name, ".xlsx", "")
'-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Set NewSht = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(i)
End If
' loop through all sheets in opened wb
For Each sh In wb.Worksheets
' get the first empty row in the new sheet
Set FindRng = NewSht.Cells.Find(What:="*", Lookat:=xlPart, LookIn:=xlFormulas, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=False)
If Not FindRng Is Nothing Then ' If find is successful
PasteRow = FindRng.Row + 1
Else ' find was unsuccessfull > new empty sheet, should paste at the first row
PasteRow = 1
End If
sh.UsedRange.Copy
NewSht.Range("A" & PasteRow).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
'NewSht.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
Next sh
wb.Close False
Exit_Loop:
Set wb = Nothing
Filename = Dir()
Loop
Next i
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
End Sub
With this code I can paste the info in different sheets, but the problem is that it's getting the contents from all the files in the folder, and I want file 1 in sheet 1, file 2 in sheet 2, and so on.
I think my problem has something to do with the placement of my For cycle for the sheets, but I'm not exactly sure.
Thank you!
Here is a copy/paste from a script library i keep. It is a rough example of how to loop through files in a directory and copy and paste each sheet to a new sheet in the master workbook. I have included a section that shows how to append to the end of a range as well. Both can be useful. Note that i use arrays to move data as its easier and faster.
Public Sub this()
Dim path As String, fileName As String, shtName As String
Dim sheet As Worksheet, thisWB As Workbook, thatWB As Workbook
Dim arr() As Variant
Dim rowC As Long, colC As Long, mrowC As Long, mColC As Long
path = "your path to directory" & "\"
fileName = Dir(path & "*.xl??")
Set thisWB = ThisWorkbook
Do While Len(fileName) > 0
Set thatWB = Workbooks.Open(path & fileName, True, True)
For Each sheet In thatWB.Sheets
shtName = Left(Mid(fileName, 1, InStrRev(fileName, ".") - 1), 30)
thisWB.ActiveSheet.Name = shtName
mrowC = thisWB.Sheets(shtName).UsedRange.Rows.Count
mColC = thisWB.Sheets(shtName).UsedRange.Columns.Count
arr = sheet.UsedRange
rowC = sheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
colC = sheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count
thisWB.Sheets(shtName).Range(thisWB.Sheets(shtName).Cells(mrowC + 1, 1), thisWB.Sheets(shtName).Cells(mrowC + 1 + rowC, colC)).Value2 = arr
Next sheet
thatWB.Close False
fileName = Dir()
thisWB.Sheets.Add After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
Loop
End Sub
I've been trying to come up with a way to split a workbook into separate workbooks based on identified worksheets in the workbook.
For example:
Say I had a worksheet for every letter in the alphabet.
I would want to split worksheets A through C into a new workbook named "A through C."
D through I will go into a new workbook named "D through I."
etc...
My idea would be to first insert a worksheet that in column A names the new workbook it will become and Columns b through as many columns as there are will the names of the worksheets to be copied into the new workbook.
Does anyone have an idea of how to make a macro for this? I've tried myself but have been unsuccessful.
Thank you!
I found this Macro out there. Does anyone think it can be modified to work?
Sub Test()
Dim Sh As Worksheet
Dim Rng As Range
Dim c As Range
Dim List As New Collection
Dim Item As Variant
Dim WB As Workbook
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set Sh = Worksheets("Sheet1")
Set Rng = Sh.Range("A2:A" & Sh.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row)
On Error Resume Next
For Each c In Rng
List.Add c.Value, CStr(c.Value)
Next c
On Error GoTo 0
Set Rng = Sh.Range("A1:H" & Sh.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row)
For Each Item In List
Set WB = Workbooks.Add
Rng.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=Item
Rng.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy WB.Worksheets(1).Range("A1")
Rng.AutoFilter
With WB
.SaveAs ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & Item & ".xls"
.Close
End With
Next Item
Sh.Activate
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
The following code assumes you have your control sheet (named "Split Parameters") in the workbook containing the macro, and it is set out with the desired filenames in column A, and the sheets that you wish to copy into that file (from the ActiveWorkbook, which might, or might not, be the one containing the macro) listed in columns B, C, etc. Row 1 is assumed to be headings, and is therefore ignored.
Sub SplitBook()
Dim lastRow As Long
Dim LastColumn As Long
Dim srcWB As Workbook
Dim newWB As Workbook
Dim i As Long
Dim c As Long
Dim XPath As String
Dim newName As String
Dim sheetName As String
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Set srcWB = ActiveWorkbook
XPath = srcWB.Path
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Split Parameters")
lastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 2 To lastRow
'Take the first worksheet and create a new workbook
sheetName = .Cells(i, "B").Value
srcWB.Sheets(sheetName).Copy
Set newWB = ActiveWorkbook
'Now process all the other sheets that need to go into this workbook
LastColumn = .Cells(i, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
For c = 3 To LastColumn
sheetName = .Cells(i, c).Value
srcWB.Sheets(sheetname).Copy After:=newWB.Sheets(newWb.Sheets.Count)
Next
'Save the new workbook
newName = .Cells(i, "A").Value
newWB.SaveAs Filename:=xPath & "\" & newName & ".xls", FileFormat:=xlExcel8
newWB.Close False
Next
End With
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

I have a workbook with a lot of worksheets. I only work on sheets marked with a !. I want to replace all formulas by values and store the sheets as own .xls files. My script is exactly doing that. My problem is that the original document is affected as well. Is there a way to replace the values only on the copied sheet which will be stored so the original document stays the same?
Dim wbk As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim rng As Range
Dim cl As Object
Dim xPath As String
Dim isReadable As Boolean
Dim sName As String
xPath = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Path
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
Set wbk = ActiveWorkbook
For Each ws In wbk.Sheets
isReadable = (InStr(ws.Name, "!")) > 0
If isReadable Then
Debug.Print ws.Name
Set rng = ws.Range("A1").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, 23)
If Not (rng Is Nothing) Then
For Each cl In rng
cl.Value = cl.Value
Next cl
End If
sName = Replace(ws.Name, "!", "")
sName = LCase(Replace(sName, "+", ""))
ws.Copy
Application.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=xPath & "\" & sName & ".xlsx", CreateBackup:=False
Application.ActiveWorkbook.Close False
Debug.Print sName
End If
Next ws
Application.Calculate
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
MsgBox "Done, do not save the changes!"
Make a copy of the sheet and work on that:
Sub DoStuff()
Dim wsOrig As Worksheet
Dim wsNew As Worksheet
Dim wbOrig As Workbook
Dim wbNew As Workbook
Set wsOrig = ActiveSheet ' or whatever
Set wbOrig = ActiveWorkbook ' or whatever
For s = 1 To wbOrig.Sheets.Count
If wbOrig.Sheets(s) ' meets my conditions then....
Application.SetWarnings False ' don't question if we want to delete thinsg
Set wbNew = Workbooks.Add
wsOrig.Copy After:=wbNew.Sheets(1)
wbNew.Sheets(1).Delete ' delete the default Sheet1 of the new workbook
Set wsNew = wbNew.Sheets(1)
With wsNew
' do all the stuff I want to do
End With
wbNew.SaveAs ' whatever
Application.SetWarnings True
End If
Next s
End Sub
Here is another way to make the changes only on the copied sheet:
Dim ws As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet
For Each ws In Worksheets
If ws.Name Like "*!*" Then
ws.Copy
Set ws2 = Workbooks(Workbooks.Count).Sheets(1) ' newest workbook
ws2.Name = LCase(Replace(Replace(ws.Name, "!", ""), "+", ""))
ws2.UsedRange.Value = ws2.UsedRange.Value
ws2.Parent.SaveAs ws.Parent.Path & "\" & sName & ".xlsx", CreateBackup:=False ' add checks if the file already exist and if path contains illegal characters that are not allowed
ws2.Parent.Close False
End If
Next
I am trying to combine multiple excel files into one file. I am able to do that correctly, but the location I want to place the data is running into a small problem.
I want my data to start (paste) at cell A2 under the header row, but since my sheet is formatted as a table with a named range, my data is pasted just below the last line of that blank table. This is the code I'm using to paste the data.
Sub CombineFiles()
Dim path As String, ThisWB As String, lngFilecounter As Long
Dim wbDest As Workbook, shtDest As Worksheet, ws As Worksheet
Dim Filename As String, Wkb As Workbook
Dim CopyRng As Range, Dest As Range
Dim RowofCopySheet As Integer
ThisWB = ActiveWorkbook.Name
path = "C:\MyFolder"
RowofCopySheet = 2
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set shtDest = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Import")
Range("A2").Select
Filename = Dir(path & "\*.xl??", vbNormal)
If Len(Filename) = 0 Then Exit Sub
Do Until Filename = vbNullString
If Not Filename = ThisWB Then
Set Wkb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=path & "\" & Filename)
Set CopyRng = Wkb.Sheets(1).Range(Cells(RowofCopySheet, 1), Cells(Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row, Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column))
Set Dest = shtDest.Range("A" & shtDest.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row + 1)
CopyRng.Copy
Dest.PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats
Dest.PasteSpecial xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats
Application.CutCopyMode = False 'Clear Clipboard
Wkb.Close False
End If
Filename = Dir()
Loop
Sheets("Import").Select
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
Is there any change I can make to the code or the contents of the cells in the table to allow this to work correctly? Thanks for the help!
Please try this after changing range to your requirements. It will paste from A2. Using the clipboard takes time and resources so the best way would be to avoid a copy and paste and just set the values equal to what you want.Though you have mentioned that data transfer is required between separate workbooks but mentioned code for only basic problem, so this code fragment conveys the basic concept for transfer in a situation where there is a named table involved.
Sub Normalize()
Dim CopyFrom As Range
Set CopyFrom = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A2", [H30])
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Resize(CopyFrom.Rows.Count).Value = CopyFrom.Value
End Sub
I have a work sheet named Final_Sheet, I want to create a button on that sheet and execute the following operation
Select Cell Range A1:D30 and pickup the values from cell only and create a new Excel file and paste the copied cell values into Sheet1 of created excel file. I am able to o this much, further I can't understand what to do can anybody please help me out?
Private Sub Button1_Click()
Dim rownum As Integer
Dim selection As Range
On Error Resume Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
rownum = InputBox("Row No to Copy :", "OK")
selection = ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(rownum, 10)).Select
selection.Copy
Flname = InputBox("Enter File Name :", "Creating New File...")
MsgBox ("Output File Created Successfully")
If Flname <> "" Then
Set NewWkbk = Workbooks.Add
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range("D1:D30").Copy Before:=NewWkbk.Sheets(1)
NewWkbk.Sheet(1).Select
Cells(1, 1).Activate
selection.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
NewWkbk.SaveAs ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & Flname
ActiveWorkbook.Close
End If
End Sub
The code below should do as you've asked.
EDIT: Pastes values only
Private Sub Button1_Click()
'Dim Variables
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim rng As Range
Dim wbNew As Workbook, wbCurrent As Workbook
Dim strFileName As String
'Assign object variables
Set wbCurrent = ActiveWorkbook
Set ws = wbCurrent.ActiveSheet
Set rng = ws.Range("A1:D30") 'Amend range if needed
'Get desired file path from user
strFileName = InputBox("Enter File Name: ", "Creating New File...")
If strFileName <> "" Then
'Create new Workbook and paste rng into it
Set wbNew = Workbooks.Add
rng.Copy
wbNew.Sheets(1).Range("A1:D30").PasteSpecial xlValues
'Save new workbook using desired filepath
wbNew.SaveAs wbCurrent.Path & "\" & strFileName
End If
End Sub
It wasn't clear to me from the question which workbook you wished to close with ActiveWorkbook.Close but you could easily add wbNew.Close or wbCurrent.Close below wbNew.SaveAs ... as required.
