Macro Help!!!!!!
Hi
Very little chance of anyone answering this. It looks like you are
still in the formulating stage of your project, which no one here can
help you with, as they don't know exactly what your project is.
Write down clearly for yourself exactly what you would do manually to
create your workbooks, right down to cell addresses (e.g. I will take
the numbers in cells A1 to A6 on sheet 1 and copy them to cells B1 to
B6 on sheet 2, then bold the numbers on sheet 2 and format as %). Now
you can start asking real short questions to perform specific tasks.
These will be answered in minutes.
regards
Paul

I'm working to build a couple of workbooks that contains info on
students. The first workbook contains students first name, last name,
birthdate, etc. On this workbook a new sheet will be added every day to
collect info for the current day (each sheet will be named by the
current date). On the second workbook (which is already existing), I
would like to compile data from specific columns from each sheet (from
workbook 1). I found a macro (which is shown below), and I'm not even
sure if this is the correct one. I may be asking a bit much, but I'm
having 3 problems: (1. I'm not sure how to set it to pull the info from
each sheet in workbook 1. (2. Workbook 2 has links to graphs (on sheet
2, in workbook 2), and I'm not sure how to make sure those links are not
removed. (3. Is there a way to set this so it automatically sends the
info every time info (and a new sheet)is added in workbook 1? This is a
lot but I figured I'd ask everything all at once to get a clear
understanding. *
