Yesterday we have finalized and tested the code (the first part of the code is VBScript) and the second part of the code is (in Excel VBA) to move file from one source folder to one destination folder successfully based on two hour delay (i.e. each file which will come to source folder will upload 2 hour delay), however the situation is that i have actually 15 source folders and 15 destination folders.
One method is that i should create 15 VBScript files and 15 Excel files that contains the code for each source and destination folder which i believe is not efficient way. I have tried a lot to add multiple source and destination folder options in the below mentioned code(s) but i am not successful, can anyone help me, i will be thankful.
the below mentioned code is VBscript
Dim oExcel, strWB, nameWB, wb
strWB = "E:\Delta\Folder monitor.xlsm"
nameWB = Left(strWB, InStr(StrReverse(strWB), "\") - 1)
nameWB = Right(strWB, Len(nameWB))
Set objExcel = GetObject(,"Excel.Application")
Set wb = objExcel.Workbooks(nameWB)
if wb is nothing then wbscript.quit 'the necessary workbook is not open...
dim strComputer, strDirToMonitor, strTime, objWMIService, colMonitoredEvents, objEventObject, MyFile
strComputer = "."
'# WMI needs two backslashes (\\) as path separator and each of it should be excaped.
'# So, you must use 4 backslashes (\\\\) as path separator!
strDirToMonitor = "E:\\\\Delta\\\\Source" 'use here your path
'# Monitor Above every 10 secs...
strTime = "10"
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

you can see the previous query here on the link Previous Query
Please, use the next scenario. It assumes that you will fill the necessary path in an existing Excel sheet. Since, it will take the necessary paths based on a cell selection, it is necessary to name the sheet in discussion as "Folders". In Column A:A you should fill the 'Source' folder path (ending in backslash "") and in B:B, the 'Destination' folder path (also ending in backslash).
The proposed solution takes the necessary paths based on your selection in A:A column. The 'Destination' path is extracted based on the selection row.
Please, replace the existing string with the next one, adapting the two necessary paths:
Dim oExcel, strWB, nameWB, wb
strWB = "C:\Teste VBA Excel\Folder monitor.xlsm" 'use here your workbook path!!!
nameWB = Left(strWB, InStr(StrReverse(strWB), "\") - 1)
nameWB = Right(strWB, Len(nameWB))
Set objExcel = GetObject(,"Excel.Application")
Set wb = objExcel.Workbooks(nameWB)
if wb is nothing then wbscript.quit 'the necessary workbook is not open...
dim strComputer, strDirToMonitor, strTime, objWMIService, colMonitoredEvents, objEventObject, MyFile
strComputer = "."
'# WMI needs two backslashes (\\) as path separator and each of it should be excaped.
'# So, you must use 4 backslashes (\\\\) as path separator!

Do While True
Set objEventObject = colMonitoredEvents.NextEvent()
Select Case objEventObject.Path_.Class
Case "__InstanceCreationEvent"
MyFile = StrReverse(objEventObject.TargetInstance.PartComponent)
' Get the string to the left of the first \ and reverse it
MyFile = (StrReverse(Left(MyFile, InStr(MyFile, "\") - 1)))
MyFile = Mid(MyFile, 1, Len(MyFile) - 1)
'send the information to the waiting workbook:
objExcel.Application.Run "'" & strWB & "'!GetMonitorInformation", Array(MyFile, Now, strDirToMonitor)
End Select
Loop
The adapted script sends also the source path to the waiting workbook...
TerminateMonintoringScript Sub remains exactly as it is.
Please, copy the next adapted code instead of existing one, in the used standard module (TerminateMonintoringScript included, even not modified):

So, you only need to replace the existing VBA code with the above adapted one, to place the 'source'/'destination' paths in columns A:B of one of Excel sheets, which to be named "Folders".
Select in column A:A a 'Source' cell and run startMonitoring.
Play with files creation and check their moving from the new 'source' to the new 'destination'...
But you have to understand that only a session of the WMI class can run at a specific moment. This means that you cannot simultaneously monitor more than one folder...
I am still documenting regarding the possibility to use a query able to be common for multiple folders. But I never could see such an approach till now and it may not be possible...
I have this code on the OnClick_Event of a button on a form to Create a folder on my pc.
On Error Resume Next
Dim fs, cf, strFolder
Dim FolderName As String
FolderName = DLookup("F_SNr", "tblFahrzeug", "F_SNr = '" & Me.F_SNr.Value & "'")
strFolder = "C:\Users\IQeov95\Desktop\All Data\" & FolderName & ""
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If fs.FolderExists(strFolder) = True Then
MsgBox "'" & strFolder & "' already exists!"
Else
Set cf = fs.CreateFolder(strFolder)
If fs.FolderExists(strFolder) = True Then
MsgBox "'" & strFolder & "' successfully created!"
Else
MsgBox "'" & strFolder & "' was not created successfully!"
End If
End If
The code works just fine as long as the path is on my pc. How does the "strFolder" variable has to look like to create the folder on my SharePoint? I've tryed entering the SharePoint link but that didnt work. Also i tryed using the MkDir command but got the Run Time Error 76: Path not found.
Thanks for any help in advance!
I am using MS Access Forms and I am trying to open a file but don't know how to open the file based knowing only part of the name. Example below works
Private Sub Open_Email_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdExplore_Click
Dim x As Long
Dim strFileName As String
strFileName = "C:\data\office\policy num\20180926 S Sales 112.32.msg"
strApp = """C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15\Outlook.exe"""
If InStr(strFileName, " ") > 0 Then strFileName = """" & strFileName & """"
x = Shell(strApp & " /f " & strFileName)
Exit_cmdExplore_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdExplore_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdExplore_Click
End Sub
If I change the strFilename to being
strFileName = "C:\data\" & Me.Office & "\" & Me.nm & " " & Me.pol & "\" & "*"& " S Sales " & Me.amt & "*" & ".msg"
It includes the * rather than using it as a wildcard, the date/numbers can be anything or in another format but always eight numbers. I tried using a while loop on the numbers but I am not sure the best way of doing this sorry.
You can use the Dir function to iterate over all files that match a string pattern.
strApp = """C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15\Outlook.exe"""
Dim strFilePattern As String
strFilePattern ="C:\data\" & Me.Office & "\" & Me.nm & " " & Me.pol & "\" & "*"& " S Sales " & Me.amt & "*" & ".msg"
Dim strFileName As String
strFileName = Dir(strFilePattern)
Do While Not strFileName = vbNullString
If InStr(strFileName, " ") > 0 Then strFileName = """" & strFileName & """"
x = Shell(strApp & " /f " & strFileName)
strFileName = Dir
Loop
The first call to Dir with the pattern as a parameter will find the first file that matches the pattern supplied. All subsequent calls without the pattern will return the next file that matches the pattern.
So, lets rebuild the question a bit. Imagine that you are having the following 5 files in a given folder:
A:\peter.msg
A:\bstack.msg
A:\coverflow.msg
A:\heter.msg
A:\beter.msg
and you need to find the files, that correspond to "A:\*eter.msg" and print them.
For this, you need to use the keyword Like:
Sub TestMe()
Dim someNames As Variant
someNames = Array("A:\peter.msg", "A:\bstack.msg", _
"A:\coverflow.msg", "A:\heter.msg", "A:\beter.msg")
Dim cnt As Long
For cnt = LBound(someNames) To UBound(someNames)
If someNames(cnt) Like "A:\*eter.msg" Then
Debug.Print someNames(cnt)
End If
Next
End Sub
Loop through files in a folder using VBA?
I am reading a list of files and come accross updated versions along the way. In my loop I am checking if the file already exists and trying to remove it, so that I can create the newer version again:
objFs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If (objFs.FileExists(location & "\" & fileName & ".xml")) Then
System.IO.File.Delete(location & "\" & fileName & ".xml")
End If
objTextStream = objFs.CreateTextFile(location & "\" & fileName & ".xml", True)
objTextStream.Write(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(recordXml))
Ideally I would rather just open the file if it already exists and overwrite the contents, but so far my attempts have been in vein.
location is a user defined path, e.g. c://
recordXML is a retrieved value from the database
The main error I keep getting is
Additional information: Argument 'Prompt' cannot be converted to type 'String'.
Which seems to mean that the file is either not there to delete, or it is already there when I am trying to create it. The delete may not be working as it should, it may be that the file is not deleted in time to recreate it?..
That's my thoughts anyway.
Found this code at http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/325574-visual-basic-applications-check-if-folder-file-exists-create-them-if-not.html for creating a new file (unless one already exists) and then opening it (existing or new). Once you open, you can just do a Sheets(
NAMEOFSHEET").Cells.Clearto clear the cells and then paste your data.
Sub btncontinue_Click()
Dim myFile As String, myFolder As String
myFolder = "C:\TimeCards"
myFile = myFolder & "\timecards.xls"
If Not IsFolderExixts(myFolder) Then
CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").CreateFolder myFolder
End If
If Not IsFileExists(myFile) Then
MsgBox "No such file in the folder"
Exit Sub
End If
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(myFile)
' Your code here
End Sub
Function IsFolderExists(txt As String) As Boolean
IsFolderExists = _
Createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").FolderExists(txt)
End Function
Function IsFileExists(txt As String) As Boolean
IsFileExists = _
CreateObject("Scripting.FilesystemObject").FileExists(txt)
End Function
You could try this, it should work in VB, VBA and VBScript.
objFs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If objFs.FileExists(location & "\" & fileName & ".xml") Then Kill(location & "\" & fileName & ".xml")
Open location & "\" & fileName & ".xml" For Output As #1
Print #1, recordXml
Close #1
Try to use FSO to delete the file. Also the objTextStream needs to be set because it is object.
Sub AnySub()
Dim objFs As FileSystemObject
Set objFs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If (objFs.FileExists(Location & "\" & Filename & ".xml")) Then
objFs.DeleteFile Location & "\" & Filename & ".xml"
End If
Set objTextStream = objFs.CreateTextFile(Location & "\" & Filename & ".xml", True)
objTextStream.Write recordXml
End Sub
I m not sure the .write method work with UTF8.
I m using this function:
Sub File_WriteToUTF8(File_Path As String, s_Content As String)
On Error GoTo ende
Dim LineStream As Object
Set LineStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
With LineStream
.Type = 2
.Mode = 3
.Charset = "utf-8"
.Open
.WriteTEXT s_Content
.SaveToFile File_Path, 2
ende:
.Close
End With
End Sub
So instead of
objTextStream.Write recordXml
it would be
File_WriteToUTF8 Location & "\" & Filename & ".xml", recordXml
I want to monitor a drive for file changes, using VBScript. I have the below code. It works fine for InstanceCreationEvent and InstanceDeletionEvent. But InstanceModificationEvent is not happening. From googling I got to know we need to use CIM_DataFile instead of CIM_DirectoryContainsFile to monitor InstanceModificationEvent. I am not sure how to modify the code. Can anyone help.
FYI: One script should monitor all the folders and subfolders in a drive.
PS: Any suggestion to improve the code and performance or other ideas also welcome.
My Code:
Dim arrFolders

Dim strFolder
Dim strCommand

strChangeFile = "MonitorFolder_Log.txt"
strMailIDFile = "MonitorFolder_MailIDs.txt"
'Check if the log file exists, if not ceate a new file and exit the script. Restart the script again.
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If not oFSO.FileExists(strChangeFile) then
'WScript.Echo "Change Log File Not Found. Creating new file..."
Set oTxtFile = oFSO.CreateTextFile(strChangeFile)
WScript.Echo strChangeFile & " File Created." & vbCrLf & "Please restart the script." & vbCrLf
WScript.Quit
End If
'Prompt for which drive should be monitored. If not a valid drive, then exit the script.
strDrive = InputBox("Enter the drive to monitor: " & vbCrLf & "E.g.: Input C to monitor C:\ drive.", "Monitor Folder - Oracle", "E")

Monitoring the entire filesystem for file creation is not feasible. It will eat up system resources and might severly affect system operation. Only ever monitor selected folders. The following should work:
Const Interval = 1
Set monitor = CreateMonitor("C:\foo")
Do
Set evt = monitor.NextEvent()
Select Case evt.Path_.Class
Case "__InstanceCreationEvent" : SendNotification evt.TargetInstance
Case "__InstanceModificationEvent" : ...
Case "__InstanceDeletionEvent" : ...
End Select
Loop
Function CreateMonitor(path)
Set wmi = GetObject("winmgmts://./root/cimv2")
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
path = Split(fso.GetAbsolutePathName(path), ":")
drv = path(0) & ":"
dir = Replace(path(1), "\", "\\")
If Right(dir, 2) <> "\\" Then dir = dir & "\\"
query = "SELECT * FROM __InstanceOperationEvent" & _
" WITHIN " & Interval & _
" WHERE Targetinstance ISA 'CIM_DataFile'" & _
" AND TargetInstance.Drive='" & drv & "'" & _
" AND TargetInstance.Path='" & dir & "'"
Set CreateMonitor = wmi.ExecNotificationQuery(query)
End Function
Sub SendNotification(tgtInst)
'send notification
End Sub
You should run monitors for different folders as separate processes, because NextEvent() is a blocking operation.
