Code To Run File From User's CD Drive
I have an Excel file and iview32.exe I am going to put on a CD.

I use this code to find what drive user utilizes (and it works):

DriveID = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Path

While testing from my HD, I have this code to activate iview32.exe (and it works):

Shell "D:/Program FilesIrfanviewi_view32.exe /slideshow=C:a.txt", vbNormalFocus

Tried it, but can't get parens () and Quotes " and & in right places.

Copying Files To Server Via Mapped Drive
Hi all, could anyone help....

I have a program running on a client PC which copies a lot of images (1000s) to the server via LAN network (100MBps). What I do is to use the FSO to copy the files located locally on the client PC to the server. I've innitially mapped a drive to the server and got all the proper permission to write to the remote server shared directory.

The problems doesn't occurs all the time but still it does. I get errors like: -
Run-Time error '53' - File Not Found
Run-Time error '70' - Permission Denied

It's not caused by the algorithm because it works sometimes, using the same set of images & data.

Could anyone help on this? Appreciate it eXtremely!

Printer.Print Picbox + Copying Files To Users Hard Drive
Hi
I have two quick questions -
Firstly i have a scrollable Picbox that is A4 in size when my program is run. During execution I send formatted text to the picture box via Picbox.Print. I would then like to send this information to the printer and i have tried using
"Printer.Print Picbox" but all that this prints out is 0.

My second question has to do with copying files from my finished product(ie. a CD-ROM) to my potential users hard drive. I want to transfer the files from the CD to the "C:Program Files...." directory. I presume my system will have to made into an executable prior to this. Can this be done by running the setup.exe file? Can a desktop shortcut be created at this stage? Also is it possible to make the CD-ROM autorun once it is inserted into the drive?

Any advice on what to do or where i can find more information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Refer A Link To A File On The Disc Drive Self And Not To The Name Of The Disc Drive
In an Excel sheet I made buttons that refers to a file on the network. This sheet will be burned in mass production on cd.
Now I have the following question:
The macro’s refer to a file on the network, but now I going to burn it on CD. So the referring to the file on the network must be adjust to the file on the Disc-drive. But the problem is the name of the Disc drive. Not on any computer is the name of the disc drive the same. So I need a code that refers the link to the Disc drive self, and not to the name of the Disc drive. So the macro will work on every computer.

I hope that someone can help me with this…

CD Or DVD R/RW Drive Code
I am trying to write a small program to burn to a CD R or DVD R. Can I do this in vb6 or vb.net? Is there an API for this? Any info would be greatly appreciated! I prefer to write in vb6 since I know that language better, but am willing to learn vb.net if needed. I am learning vb.net anyway, but I'm not very good at it yet as I have hit a few vb.walls due to lack of migration info or new language additions. If anyone knows a way to write a CD or DVD using vb, it would be very helpfull!

Thank you,

Code For Copying Worksheets
Hi,

I need VBA code that copies worksheet 1 to worksheet 2 when worksheet 1 is initially opened and before any changes are done to it.

Also I need to know how i can insert columns that represent months in a calendar year. I can do it manually however I need columns representing the calendar year from 2002-2007 so doing it manually would be a pain. Is there a better way, coding or something that i don't know.

Thanks

Need Help To Do Copying Of Cells By Using VBA Code
Has tried using macros but i require a loop to repeat this action.

On the left is the series of data that will be copied and pasted in ANOTHER sheet. (In the picture, i just paste in the same sheet for simplicity.)

The first 4 columns have no data and "AAA" will be pasted in the first column on a new sheet. From A10 to A17, the data will be copied and then special paste transpose to the right of "AAA". It will be the same as "BBB" and then the data below is pasted as the same as "AAA" Next to "CCC" (which is not shown) it will be 2 columns below the 8 previous datas and after "CCC" will be 4 columns and then 8 datas again. From here, it will be the same cycle.

Any way to code this in vba using a loop. Thanks for your all suggestions and advice!

Copying & Pasting Code
OK, so somer of you may remember me from about the end of last year when I was working on a project. I've got version 1.0 in production, and am currently working on new features that they have asked for in version 1.1.

I've worked many of them out, but have a question. OK, so what I need to do is have buttons on the toolbar that find out what text is selected and copy it to the clipaboard, and also paste that text in at the current cursor location.

I know in textboxes that they can just right-click, or use keyboard shortcuts (CTRL+C and CTRL+V), but as these are automatically done by Windows/VB, I'm at a loss as to how it should be done. It's probably very simple, but I just can't think of how it's done.

Need Help With How To Copying And Pasting My Code

Copying Code From Forum
Am I doing something wrong?

When I copy some code from someone's forum question into the VB code window, instead of coming out formatted (i.e. each line of code on it's own line as in the original forum message) it gets pasted as one long line!

Surely I am missing something!

VBA Code For Copying And Pasting Data
Hmm, this is kind of hard to explain so bear with me.

I have created a userform with an "Add Details" command button to insert the information into rows on a worksheet (my master worksheet).

I am trying to find a way to assign a procedure to a "Search" command button that will copy the master worksheet data and insert it into a new worksheet that is read only but enable people to filter and sort at their leisure.

When the workbook is closed, this temporary new worksheet would be deleted or at least the data would be.

Any ideas? I've tried a couple of ways but unsuccessful so far.

Problem Copying Files To CD From Code
I have an APP that needs to allow the user to save created files to a blank CD. Windows creates a folder to copy files to when a blank CD is inserted. The folder is labled (in my LapTop's case) "D:" and is visible in a VB6 DriveBox. However, when I try to use fso.CopyFile, it errors indicating that there is no disk in the drive (Error code 76 - Path not found).

How can I copy files to the temporary "write folder" created by Windows when a blank CD is inserted??

Thanks in advance!

Code Help SQLServer On Shared Drive
I have this working on a single pc ie the SQL database and the app is on one pc only. Now I need to adapt it to have SQL Server on a network shared drive. You will notice that the image gets saved to a folder called rp currently on a single pc. I need to have the images saved to the same Drive as SQL Server (shared drive)on a server in a folder called rp. Can anyone help me as to how to modify the code so that the images will be saved to the proper folder on same drive as SQl Server and also the path that is inserted into the record in SQL be correct. At present it is setup only on one pc so I used C: etc for saving to the rp folder and also as the path in the database to the image. Don't worry bout the chkboxes they work fine. Since they are saved directly in SQL.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

.Find & Copying Code Doesnt Seem To Work.
Hi

I have the following codes below.

I created a worksheet named "Names". From range(cells(3,1)) to cells(i,1), i wld like to key in new names. for range(cells(3,2)) to cells(i,2), is the new names' respective ages.

Using a form, I created two text boxes - txt_new_names & txt_agez. these txt-boxes are linked to range("Names!D4:E4").

before submitting the new names to the worksheet "Names", I would like to check whether the new names are repeated. ie, from cells(3,1) to cells(i,1) in comparasion with Range("Names!D4").

however, the code doesnt seem to work, may be due to my inexperience in using .find & etc. sorry.

thank you in advance for your kind assistance.


Code:
Private Sub cbo_new_name_submit_Click()

Dim i, ii As Integer
Dim R As Range, Item As Range
Dim FindAddress As String

i = Sheets("Names").Range("A63556").End(xlUp).Row

If Sheets("Names").Range("D4") <> vbNullString Then
With Sheets("Names").Cells(i, 1)
Set R = .Find(Range("D4").Value)
If Not R Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Repetitive names - Try make the names more unique", vbOKOnly

Copying Web Site Text Through Vb Code Issue.
I am opening a web page from vba Excel. I want to copy the entire page to the clip board. Then close the web site down. The problem is. How do I know if the web page has fully loaded before I Select All and Copy?

Copying HTML Code Into Front Page
I am trying to automatically paste some HTML instructions into Front Page from a VB app. My preference is to paste it in the "Edit" window of Front Page, not the "Source" Window.

When I do a

Clipboard.SetText "<image src= .....>"

And then paste it while in "Edit" view in Front Page. Unfortunately, when Front Page (and Outlook) are in "Edit" view and the recieve the paste it interprits it as literal text and not an HTML comand.
If I look at the "Source" view it has changed the "<" to "&lt;" to be a "less than" character instead of the beginning of an HTML instruction.

Does anyone know a way to copy an HTML command from a VB application so it can be pasted into an HTML editor like Front Page in "Edit" view?
Is there a way to identify the text which describes and HTML as some type of HTML command so when copied and pasted it is interpreted an and HTML command and not text??

Any help appreciated.
