importing data from multiple excel spreadsheets
I need assistance in creating code that will open excel spreadsheets
import data into an array, then close the file. I'm not sure how to d the opening and importing part and I need to see some examples. We have a program from Avaya called CMS that lets us monitor differen bits of data for the techs at hour tech support help desk. When we want to run reports on our teams, we have scripts tha interface with CMS and generate Excel spreadsheets of each technician' current stats. We then have to open all of the spreadsheets at once, then open anothe spreadsheet that reads the data, performs the calculations needed t average the data, then displays it all in a nice little layout tha shows all the info properly sorted. The main issue is that this is a pain in the @ss. Its cumbersome an slow. What I would like to do is add in some VB code that will open eac spreadsheet being generated by CMS, import the important data, the close the spreadsheet. Once all the info is stored in a couple o arrays, the VB code will then do its normal calculations and displa the info. Thanks for any help -- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com |
importing data from multiple excel spreadsheets
How are the workbooks to open determined?
Are they all in one directory and all files in that directory should be opened? Assume the above Dim sPath as String, sName as String Dim i as Long, j as Long, sStr as String Dim wkbk as Workbook Dim vArr as Variant sPath = "C:\MyFiles\ sName = Dir(sPath & "*.xls") do while sName < "" sStr = sName & vbNewLine & vbNewLine set wkbk = workbooks.Open(sPath & sName) vArr = wkbk.Worksheets(1).Range("A1:B20").Value for i = 1 to 2 for j = 1 to 20 sStr = sStr & varr(i,j) & "," next j sStr = sStr & vbNewLine Next i msgbox sStr wkbk.Close Savechanges:=False sName = dir() Loop untested (may contain typos), but represents an approach -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Geuis " wrote in message ...
