I would like to open all workbooks in a filepath on my hard-drive and then copy table data from sheet 2 to Master workbook with the name of Master.
I found this code and have modified it to suit my needs but I'm stuck.
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow
Dim Filepath As String
Filepath = "C:\home\Se\058 \dxakmh\Desktop\TestMiljö\Prognosverktyg\Sektionsfil\Gruppfiler"
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If MyFile = “master.xlsm” Then
Exit Sub
End If
Workbooks.Open (Filepath & MyFile)
Worksheets("FärdigÖnskemål").Range("A4:D4").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Close
erow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Worksheets("DataÖnskemål").Range(Cells(erow, 1), Cells(erow, 4))
MyFile = Dir
Loop
End Sub
Any help this friday?
According to your code, it's not clear what Worksheet is the destination sheet (the one you want to paste to), is it Sheet1 or Worksheets("DataÖnskemål").
Anyway, in my code it pastes to Sheet1, let me know if you meant something else.
Code
Option Explicit
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow As Long
Dim Filepath As String
Dim wb As Workbook
Filepath = "C:\home\Se\058 \dxakmh\Desktop\TestMilj?\Prognosverktyg\Sektionsfil\Gruppfiler\"
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Do While MyFile <> ""
If Not MyFile Like "master.xlsm" Then
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filepath & MyFile)
erow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
wb.Worksheets("DataÖnskemål").Range("A4:D4").Copy Destination:=Sheet1.Range("A" & erow)
wb.Close False
End If
MyFile = Dir()
Loop
End Sub
I would recommend using FileSystemObject instead:
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As File
Dim erow As Long
Dim Filepath As String
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim FSO As New Scripting.FileSystemObject
Filepath = "C:\home\Se\058 \dxakmh\Desktop\TestMilj?\Prognosverktyg\Sektionsfil\Gruppfiler"
For Each MyFile In FSO.GetFolder(Filepath).Files
If Not MyFile.Name Like "master.xlsm" Then
Debug.Print MyFile.Path
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(MyFile.Path)
erow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
wb.Worksheets("DataÖnskemal").Range("A4:D4").Copy Destination:=Sheet1.Range("A" & erow)
wb.Close False
End If
Next
End Sub
You have to add Microsoft Scripting Runtime reference to your project.

I've hit a roadblock and I can't figure it out for the life of me. Here is what I am trying to accomplish:
A program I use exports a snapshot of the data into a spreadsheet (.xls) into the Downloads folder locally.
I need to copy the data of sheet1 of this spreadsheet (without opening it) into the main spreadsheet I have saved elsewhere which is the "main" sheet and open. I have a macro button on the main sheet that runs this code.
The caveat is that I have to make the Downloads folder dynamic in that it is not a specific username, because it is going to be used by multiple users.
This code works perfectly for 1 person:
Sub sbCopyingAFile()
Dim MyFile As String, Str As String, MyDir As String, Wb As Workbook
Dim Rws As Long, Rng As Range
Set Wb = ThisWorkbook
MyDir = "C:\Users\{My_Username}\Downloads\"
MyFile = Dir(MyDir & "*.xls")
ChDir MyDir
Application.ScreenUpdating = 0
Application.DisplayAlerts = 0
Do While MyFile <> ""
Workbooks.Open (MyFile)
With Worksheets(1)
Rws = .Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set Rng = Range(.Cells(2, 1), .Cells(Rws, 19))
Rng.Copy Wb.Worksheets("DUMP").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(0, 0)
ActiveWorkbook.Close True
End With
MyFile = Dir()
Loop
On Error Resume Next
Kill "C:\Users\{My_Username}\Downloads\*.*"
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
This was my last attempt at getting any Downloads folder, not specific to a username:
Sub sbCopyingAFile()
Dim MyFile As String, Str As String, Wb As Workbook, MyDir As String
'Dim fso
Dim Rws As Long, Rng As Range
'Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set Wb = ThisWorkbook
MyDir = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").specialfolders("Downloads")
'MyDir = "C:\Users\{My_Username}\Downloads\"
MyFile = Dir(MyDir & "*.xls")
ChDir MyDir
Application.ScreenUpdating = 0
Application.DisplayAlerts = 0
Do While MyFile <> ""
Workbooks.Open (MyFile)
With Worksheets(1)
Rws = .Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set Rng = Range(.Cells(2, 1), .Cells(Rws, 19))
Rng.Copy Wb.Worksheets("DUMP").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(0, 0)
ActiveWorkbook.Close True
End With
MyFile = Dir()
Loop
On Error Resume Next
'Kill "C:\Users\{My_Username}\Downloads\*.*"
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
You can use Environ$("Username") to get the current username. This will return a string.
So your path would look something along the lines of:
"C:\Users\" & Environ$("Username") & "\Downloads\"
You can also use Environ$("UserProfile") & "\Downloads\" in case the user set up their profiles in a weird place that isn't "C:\Users"
NB: I'm brand new to VBA and code in general
I've attempted to make a macro that collates data from multiple workbooks and imports it into a master workbook ('ZMaster').
The following code successfully copies data from the cell C5 in multiple workbooks (from file C:\AutoMelinh) and pastes them in a column in my 'ZMaster' workbook.
The issue is I get the error 'The data you are pasting isn't the same size as your selection. Do you want to paste anyway?'. This comes after every paste, so I have to click 'ok' every single time. The format of the cell that is copied, is merged (between C5 and D5). I think this is the issue however I don't know how to mitigate that in the VBA code:
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow
Dim Filepath As String
Filepath = "C:\AutoMelinh\"
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If MyFile = "ZMaster.xlsm" Then
Exit Sub
End If
Workbooks.Open (Filepath & MyFile)
Range("C5").Copy
ActiveWorkbook.Close
erow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(Cells(erow, 1), Cells(erow, 4))
MyFile = Dir
Loop
End Sub
EDIT: I was able to solve the issue by using
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow
Dim Filepath As String
Filepath = "C:\AutoMelinh\"
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If MyFile = "ZMaster.xlsm" Then
Exit Sub
End If
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Workbooks.Open (Filepath & MyFile)
Range("C5").Copy
ActiveWorkbook.Close
erow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(Cells(erow, 1), Cells(erow, 4))
MyFile = Dir
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Loop
End Sub
you are getting the warning because you are pasting one cell into 4 cells
this should work without using copy/paste
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim Filepath As String
Filepath = "C:\AutoMelinh\"
Dim MyFile As String
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Dim erow As Range
Dim wb As Workbook
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If MyFile = "ZMaster.xlsm" Then Exit Sub
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filepath & MyFile)
erow = Workbooks("ZMaster.xlsm").Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
erow.Value = wb.Sheets(1).Range("C5").Value
if isempty(erow) then erow.value = "----------"
wb.Close
MyFile = Dir
Loop
End Sub
Objective - extracting data from multiple workbooks (5 in total); pasting the data into a new workbook.
Problem/Issue:
1) After running the below VBA code it's able to copy data from all the 5 workbooks but while pasting it's pasting data for only one of them.
2) Pop-up window for Clipboard is full. I've written a code to clear the clipboard but it doesn't seem to function as I still get the pop-up window.
VBA Code:
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow
Dim MyPath As String
MyPath = "Directory path"
MyFile = Dir(MyPath)
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If MyFile = "filename.xlsb" Then
End If
Workbooks.Open (MyPath & MyFile)
Range("A3:CP10000").Copy
ActiveWorkbook.Close
'calculating the empty row
erow = ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
a = ActiveWorkbook.Name
b = ActiveSheet.Name
Worksheets("Raw Data").Paste Range("A2")
Application.CutCopyMode = False ' for clearing clipboard
MyFile = Dir
Loop
End Sub
I tried two other commands below as well, but they seem to just return no data at all.
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(Cells(erow + 1, 1), Cells(erow + 1, 30)) `pasting the data`
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A2")`pasting the data`
Update.
Here is the current code:
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow As Long
Dim MyPath As String
Dim wb As Workbook
MyPath = "C:\Users\username\Downloads\PROJECTS\Project Name\Input file\"
MyFile = Dir(MyPath)
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If InStr(MyFile, "post_level.xlsb") > 0 Then
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(MyPath & MyFile)
Range("A3:CP10000").Copy
'calculating the empty row
erow = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Paste (ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Range("A" & erow + 2))
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
wb.Close False
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End If
MyFile = Dir
Loop
ActiveWindow.Zoom = 90
End Sub
Update2.
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow As Long
Dim MyPath As String
Dim wb As Workbook
MyPath = "C:\Users\username\Downloads\PROJECTS\ProjectNameFolder\SubFolder\MainFolder\Input file"
MyFile = Dir("C:\Users\username\Downloads\PROJECTS\ProjectNameFolder\SubFolder\MainFolder\Input file\*.*")
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If InStr(MyFile, ".csv") > 0 Then
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(MyPath & MyFile)
Range("A3:CP10000").Copy
'calculating the empty row
erow = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Paste (ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Range("A" & erow + 2))
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
wb.Close False
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End If
MyFile = Dir

I hope I can help... There are multiple errors in your code, and I am not sure if I fixed them the way you'd want.
It would be useful to mention just one main mistake. You cannot have these 2 lines together:
If MyFile = "filename.xlsb" Then
End If
Between these lines you must put every procedure that you want to do IF he If condition is met. In the original case, if there was a file named "filename.xlsb", nothing would have happened, as you immediately closed the code block...
Try something similar to the following code. It worked for me to import data from all the files in the directory C:\Temp\ which have the extension of .xlsb
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow As Long
Dim MyPath As String
Dim wb As Workbook
MyPath = "C:\Temp\"
MyFile = Dir(MyPath)
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If InStr(MyFile, ".xlsb") > 0 Then
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(MyPath & MyFile)
Range("A3:CP10000").Copy
'calculating the empty row
erow = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Paste (ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Raw Data").Range("A" & erow + 2))
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
wb.Close False
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End If
MyFile = Dir
Loop
End Sub
I have a code see below to import data from different workbooks inside one folder. I try it and it works perfectly however I was wondering if someone could help me to improve it.
I explain: "zmaster.xlms" workbook is the one where all data are past in sheet one. In this same workbook in sheet2 i have a table like this:
Where the column "Excel Column code" is where the data should be past (in the "zmaster.xlms") and "Form Cell Code" correspond to the cells which should be copy from every workbooks (which are in the same file in my desktop).
Question: How To say to the macro to look at the table and copy the cell K26 and past it in the columnA of the zmaster file and loop until the end of the table?
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow
Dim Filepath As String
Filepath = "C:\Desktop\New folder\"
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If MyFile = "zmaster.xlsm" Then
Exit Sub
End If
Workbooks.Open (Filepath & MyFile)
' Range("A1:D1").Copy
ActiveWorkbook.Close
erow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(Cells(erow, 1), Cells(erow, 4))
MyFile = Dir
Loop
End Sub
Thank you in advance for your help!
All you need to do is to loop through the cells in sheet 2 (zmaster.xlsm). Have a look at example code. Please, read comments.
[EDIT]
Code has been updated!
Option Explicit
'assuming that:
'- "Excel Column Code" is in column A

At the moment you code
erow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(Cells(erow, 1), Cells(erow, 4))
is simply copying columns A to D of the first row of data in the source worksheet to a new row in the destination worksheet.
I'm assuming that you still want to create a new single row, but that you want the table on sheet2 to define which cells are put into which column of the new row.
you need to write something like this (which is untested):
Sub YourCode()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow
Dim Filepath As String
Dim wbSource As Workbook
Dim wsSource As Worksheet
Dim wsDestination As Worksheet
Dim rngMapping As Range
Dim DestinationRow As Long
Dim cell As Range
Filepath = "C:\Desktop\New folder\"
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Set wsDestination = ActiveWorkbook.Sheet1
' Named range "MappingTableFirstColumn" is defined as having the first column in the sheet2 table and all the rows of the table.
Set rngMapping = ActiveWorkbook.Names("MappingTable").RefersToRange
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If MyFile = "zmaster.xlsm" Then
Exit Sub
End If
Set wbSource = Workbooks.Open(Filepath & MyFile)
Set wsSource = wbSource.Sheets("Sheet1")
DestinationRow = wsDestination.Cells(wsDestination.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
For Each cell In rngMapping
wsDestination.Range(cell.Value & DestinationRow) = wsSource.Range(cell.Offset(0, 1)).Value
Next cell
MyFile = Dir
Loop
ActiveWorkbook.Close
End Sub
I have few files in a directory or a folder and I want to copy a range (values with format to the current sheet). I have VBA code and I think it is not in order or something is missing in the code. Please help me to fix the issue.
(I have defined named range in each files in the directory. Is it is possible to copy using the named range?)
Copy from directory files given path & from sheet2 & paste it to file "workbook.xlsm" Sheet "sheet1"
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow
Dim Filepath As String
Filepath = "C:\test"
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If MyFile = "workbook.xlsm" Then
Exit Sub
End If
Workbooks.Open (Filepath & MyFile)
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range("A1:N24").Copy
Workbooks.Open ("Filepath & workbook.xlsm")
If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1") = vbNullString Then
Sheets("Sheet1").Range ("A1:N24")
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
Else
Selection.Copy Sheets("sheet1").Cells(A1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Offset(0, 1)
End If
MyFile = Dir
Loop
End Sub
One question remains:
(I have defined named range in each files in the directory. Is it is possible to copy using the named range?)
It's certainly possible. Thus assuming the Defined Name range is "DATA".
Just replace this line:
sourceWbk.Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1:N24").Copy
with this:
sourceWbk.Sheets("Sheet2").Range("DATA").Copy
Actually, OP mentioned that this Names are generated by another procedure with the address "A1:N24". So in the case that the address is changed then there will be a need to update every other procedure that refers to it, instead by using the Defined Name don't have to worry about it as it will be taking care by design. That why it’s a good practice to use Defined Names.
I'd use this method:
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim FilePath As String
Dim colFiles As Collection
Dim vFile As Variant
Dim wrkbkSource As Workbook
Dim wrkbkTarget As Workbook
Dim rngTarget As Range
FilePath = "C:\test\"
MyFile = "workbook.xlsm"
Set colFiles = New Collection
EnumerateFiles FilePath, "*.xlsm", colFiles
Set wrkbkTarget = Workbooks.Open(FilePath & MyFile)
For Each vFile In colFiles
If vFile <> FilePath & MyFile Then
Set wrkbkSource = Workbooks.Open(vFile, False)
wrkbkSource.Worksheets(1).Range("A1:N24").Copy
Set rngTarget = wrkbkTarget.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(1, wrkbkTarget.Worksheets("Sheet1").Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft)
rngTarget.PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats
rngTarget.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
wrkbkSource.Close False
End If
Next vFile
End Sub
This procedure is needed to get all the files in the folder:
Sub EnumerateFiles(ByVal sDirectory As String, _
ByVal sFileSpec As String, _
ByRef cCollection As Collection)
Dim sTemp As String
sTemp = Dir$(sDirectory & sFileSpec)
Do While Len(sTemp) > 0
cCollection.Add sDirectory & sTemp
sTemp = Dir$
Loop
End Sub
Okay see if it works for you, had to add quite a bit
Sub LoopThroughDirectory()
Dim MyFile As String
Dim erow
Dim Filepath As String
Dim targetWbk As Workbook
Dim sourceWbk As Workbook
Filepath = "C:\test"
MyFile = Dir(Filepath)
Workbooks.Open (Filepath & "\workbook.xlsm")
Set sourceWbk = ActiveWorkbook
Do While Len(MyFile) > 0
If Not MyFile = "workbook.xlsm" And MyFile = "*.xls*" Then
Workbooks.Open (Filepath & MyFile)
Set sourceWbk = ActiveWorkbook
sourceWbk.Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1:N24").Copy
If targetWbk.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1") = vbNullString Then
targetWbk.Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:N24").PasteSpecial xlPasteFormulas, xlPasteValues
Else
targetWbk.Sheets("sheet1").Cells(A1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Offset(0, 1).PasteSpecial xlPasteFormulas, xlPasteValues
End If
MyFile = Dir
End If
Loop
End Sub
