    Hi all


    I have a workbook with a VLookup formula to a closed workbook. It works most of the time.:)

    But sometimes it returns #I/T in some rows. And it is not the same row from time to time. If I then open the closed workbook, then it works perfect.


    Can someone please tell me what is wrong and maybe how to fix it?:)


    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,


    Try this:

    Remember to change Sheet Name And the number of Rows.

    Cell B37 is in the exsamble "501" and it shall find a folder named 501 Monte

    Cell B38 is in the exsamble "139" and it shall find a folder named 139 LWD


    Next time the numbers in the two celsl will be different and also the name on the folders.

    The folders that I want to find will always start with the numbers in the two cells, but will always has another text behind the numbers.

    The file I want to look in will always be Cell B37 follow by a dot follow by cell 38 follow by space follow by text. But that is type in cell B1 (Cells(1,2)).


    Hope this will explain. If not then just say that. :)

    Hi Carim


    Yea I have tried that, and it don't work for me.


    Here is the total code, with start up next part of code:

    Hi there,


    I have this formula in VBA to get data from at closed Workbook.

    mydata = 'H:\Orders\501 Mor\139 LWD\08 Documentation\[501.139 Monte Tidsplan.xlsm]Gantt'!B6:B25


    Right now a part of my VBA look like this:

    Code
    Path = "='H:\Orders\" 'Path to the file
    Path_1 = Cells(37, 2) & "\" 'Folder name "501 Mor"
    Path_2 = Cells(38, 2) & "\" 'Folder name"139 LWD"
    Path_3 = "08 Documentation\" 'folder in the Path
    File_1 = "[" & Cells(1, 2) 'Start of Workbook name "501.139 Monte"
    File_2 = " Tidsplan.xlsm]Gantt'!" 'End of workbook name
    
    cel = "B6:B25" 'Cells where data shall be take from
    mydata = Path & Path_1 & Path_2 & Path_3 & File_1 & File_2 & cel 'Path and Workbook name and Cells

    What I would like is that Path_ 1 will be "501" and then Wildcard. And Path_ 2 will be "139" and then Wildcard. So the code will look like this:

    Code
    Path = "='H:\Orders\" 'Path to the file
    Path_1 = Cells(37, 2) & "\" 'Folder name "501"
    Path_2 = Cells(38, 2) & "\" 'Folder name "139"
    Path_3 = "08 Documentation\" 'Folder in the Path
    File_1 = "[" & Cells(1, 2) 'Start of Workbook name "501.139 Monte"
    File_2 = " Tidsplan.xlsm]Gantt'!" 'End of workbook name
    
    cel = "B6:B25" 'Cells where data shall be take from
    mydata = Path & Path_1 & "*" & Path_2 & "*" & Path_3 & File_1 & File_2 & cel 'Path and Workbook name and Cells

    I hope this make sense, if not then please tell me. :)


    Thank you in advance for all your time and help. :)

    Hi all


    I'm using Excel 2010 and have Adobe Reader 11.


    I'm trying to make a code in VBA that can print a specific PDF file. It's OK if the file opens first but it not necessary.


    The file name change from time to time but it’s written in a specific cell in Excel. Let us say that it’s A1 in sheet1. The path is the same every time so that can be written directly in the code.


    I have found this code on WWW but it doesn’t work for me.



    I do hope that someone can help me.


    Thank you in advance

    Hi


    I use Excel to open word documents and print the word document. I use this code to open word and to print it.


    Code
    Set wdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
        wdApp.documents.Open Filename:=aNameAndPath & Filename
            wdApp.Visible = True
    
    
        wdApp.ActiveDocument.PrintOut , Copies:=1


    Now i have word documents that is divide into Sections. I would like to find a code so that it's only Section 2 in the word document that is been printed.


    Thank you in advance.
