Queener Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) quick question, is it possible for autoit to copy sheet2 from 'test.xlsx' to 'test2.xlsx' sheet3 silently (Without having to open the spreadsheet)? issue that I'm having is: If I copy test.xlsx sheet2 and paste it on test2.xlsx sheet3, I get the following error: 'The data you're pasting isn't the same size as your selection. Do you want to paste anways?' If I click OK then the pop-up error just close and nothing happen.

water Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 You can use my rewrite of the Excel UDF. Function _Excel_RangeCopyPaste does what you are looking for.

Queener Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 I would assume both spreadsheet must be open at the same time?

water Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Correct. But if you open them invisible then this will all happen in the background. See the example script _Excel_RangeCoypPast.au3.

water Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 When using _ExcelBookClose($oWorkbook1, 1, 0), I get err: _ExcelBookCLose(): undefined function. any suggestion? I included#. If I removed this line, it works, but doesn't close excel workbook. All functions in the rewritten Excel UDF have a "_" after "_Excel". So the functioon call needs to be _Excel_BookClose.

Queener Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 that makes sense... and I got it to work the way I needed. Thanks Incase someone is trying to figure out; this is what I had: Global $oExcel = _Excel_Open() If @error Then Exit MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeCopy Example", "Error creating the Excel application object." & @CRLF & "@error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended) ; Open Workbook 1 Global $oWorkbook1 = _Excel_BookOpen($oExcel, $sFilePath) If @error Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeCopy Example", "Error opening workbook '" & @ScriptDir & "\Extras\_Excel1.xls'." & @CRLF & "@error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended) _Excel_Close($oExcel) Exit EndIf Global $oWorkbook2 = _Excel_BookOpen($oExcel, @desktopdir & "\compare.xlsm") If @error Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Excel UDF: _Excel_RangeCopy Example", "Error opening workbook '" & @ScriptDir & "\Extras\_Excel1.xls'." & @CRLF & "@error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended) _Excel_Close($oExcel) Exit EndIf Global $oRange = $oWorkbook1.ActiveSheet.Range("A3:J500") $oExcel.run("Sheet2Select") ; select Record Sheet _Excel_RangeCopyPaste($oWorkbook2.ActiveSheet, $oRange, "A1") _Excel_BookClose($oWorkbook1) _Excel_BookClose($oWorkbook2) _Excel_close($oExcel) Msgbox(0, "Hate", "Just hate it when I post a question and find my own answer after a couple tries.

water Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 To make it run invisible you can either set the application to invisible _Excel_Open(False) or open the workbooks invisible _Excel_BookOpen($oExcel, $sFilePath, Default, False) My UDFs and Tutorials: Spoiler UDFs:Active Directory (NEW 2022-02-19 - Version 1.6.1.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiExcelChart (2017-07-21 - Version 0.4.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Example ScriptsOutlookEX (2021-11-16 - Version 1.7.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiOutlookEX_GUI (2021-04-13 - Version 1.4.0.0) - DownloadOutlook Tools (2019-07-22 - Version 0.6.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - WikiPowerPoint (2021-08-31 - Version 1.5.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiTask Scheduler (NEW 2022-07-28 - Version 1.6.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Wiki Standard UDFs:Excel - Example Scripts - WikiWord - Wiki Tutorials:ADO - WikiWebDriver - Wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
