Vba Auto Increment File Name Changer
1314 pc programming station software download. Hello Gurus, I have figured out a simple way of creating sequential invoice numbers by creating a macro which simply copies the value of '1' & paste special/values/add this to existing number ie 1000 creating 1001 which is then 'paste special' into the destination cell on invoice. This creates a rolling shedule ie next time it becomes 1002 etc.
Apr 20, 2011 Re: Automatically increment revision number if file already exists This macro assumes the directory you want to save to is the current directory of the open workbook. You will need to adapt it for your own needs. Incrementing A File Name In Vba - Excel. Does anyone know how to check the file name of a file and increment the filename by 1? I have macro which opens a file and then checks version number of the file (the file will have V something e.g. V1 at the end) and then save the file with a incrmented V number e.g. Will change it to V2.

Hi, Here is one way, just an example. PleaseLogin or Registerto view this content. PleaseLogin or Registerto view this.
This works fine except that this 'source' numbers register needs to be located in a separate spread sheet to the destination to make sure this system is not corruptible. The reason for this is I may be saving several copies of the invoicing spreadsheet as different client job's in progress, & I don't want to end up with double up invoice or quote numbers, hence for my pupose, a separate invoice number source or 'register' if you like (in the form of a separate work book) is important. I have discovered I can still run the macro looking to this separate sheet to source the sequential number & it works perfectly, but only while the source work book is open. Can I make this work without having to open the source work book every time? Or alternatively can I tell the source workbook to automatically open when I open the destination (invoice) work book?

Many thanks for your help in advance, FYI you will have to be fairly specific & use laymans terms! Thanks, your experience will be put to good use!
Re: Automactically open source workbook and run code to update active workbook Kiwifella, Welcome to Ozgrid. Please take the time to read the Forum Rules regarding thread titles.

No one, using for search terms the words in your thread title, would find relevant results. Hi Reafidy, I like your thinking, however for the specific use that this workbook will be put to, sourcing the number & saving the records within itself will not work for me.
This is because there will be several versions running which will have been 'saved as' a specific job in progress, so potential for duplicate numbers. Hence the need to source from a central 'register' if you like, all within the one folder. This is a calculating, quoting, price list, invoicing tool.
I am doing a good turn for my brother in law who owns a roofing business, & I see how he spends hours every night manually calculating jobs, material, labour, typing quotes etc. I am using my (basic) excel skills to try to automate a lot of this for him, where he will be able simply punch in key criteria, m2 of roof area, tile type etc, & this tool will automatically crunch for him how many nails he will need, tiles, mtrs of battons, labour cost etc.

Most of this is straight fwd basic calculations & formulas, however the trick is that when I observe the way he works & the flexibility he needs, I can see that he may have several quotes on the go, & even jobs in progress, which he will want to save as '(job Address)' & go back to the template for the next job, so sequential invoice numbers need to come from a central location, which could double as a log of Quote/Invoice numbers with details etc. I am imagining a macro button named 'create Quote number' which would create sequential number, record on the central log, paste value onto quote/invoice.

I can make all this happen if I have a 2nd spreadsheet (log) open at the same time, but not if it is closed. I need to make this simple to use as the recipients will be even less excel savy than I.
Even if a workbook could be linked to open automatically when the main one is opened? Or you may have a better idea or know how to write to a register while closed? A huge thanks for taking an interest in my project, & for reading through this diatribe!! Kind Regards Kiwifella.
