Re: Appendix Thread. ( Codes for other Threads, HTML Tables, etc. )

Hi
. I would like to use this Thread as an Appendix for codes in other Threads so as to help reduce clutter in that Thread should the code be a bit long, or not directly relevant.
. Also as HTML code is on in this Test Sub Forum I would like to reference HTML Tables should I wish to use them in answering threads

@ Moderators, Administrator:
. I hope the above is OK to do and if so please do not delete this Thread. ( Or advise if I should post my "Appendix" somewhere else ( If possible where HTML code is on ) )
.
. Many Thanks
Alan

,

The header row,
Group Amount1 Amount2 Amount3 Amount4 Notes1 Notes2 Notes3 Notes4 Name
, we could make partially dynamic, as is needed, since we don’t know the maximum number of amounts ( = maximum number of Notes ) , before seeing the data.

We do have the information needed, since Mx contains, in our current example, the required value of 4

Evaluate Range techniques are a convenient way to get these sort of things.

We start by considering spreadsheet formulas such as this,
={"Amount" & COLUMN(A1:D1)}
, which returns us an array, which applied across a range , would give us like
Amount1 Amount2 Amount3 Amount4

Taking that general idea and a few other steps we can finally get at our heading like in this demo coding

Codes required for contribution to , and to be referenced from, this Thread: http://www.excelfox.com/forum/showth...lder-Using-VBA

Theses are

_ the main initial code , ( Sub ( ) ) , used in a two code solution "recursion type" solution for Looping through all Folders and Subfolders and Files , starting from an in initial Folder which is given in this code and passed to the second code,

_ a "recursion type" code. This code successively takes a Folder, looks into its subfolders, and then passes all the subfolders successively to "itself" and repeats the process of then looking into the Sub Folders, and then passes all the subfolders successively to "itself" and repeats the process of then looking into the Sub Folders, and then passes all the subfolders successively to "itself" and repeats the process of then looking into the Sub Folders, …. Etc…..

But it is just incredibly difficult to put in words. It is basically a Procedure that keeps calling itself as much as necessary as it goes "along",  "down", or "to the right" of the Path "roots". Every time it goes off calling itself VBA runs a copy of that Procedure. It "Stacks" all info carefully for each "Copy" Run and continues to do this "drilling" down as far as it must, in this case finding the Next Folder, and then the next Folder in that, then the next Folder in that, then the next Folder in that...I think you get the point!

The "Frozen" Routine then re starts when the copy finishes

20   Rem 0        At the Dim stage  a  '_-String  is "Pointer" to a "Blue Print" (or Form, Questionaire not yet filled in, a template etc.)"Pigeon Hole" in Memory, sufficient in construction to house a piece of Paper with code text giving the relevant information for the particular Variable Type. VBA is sent to it when it passes it. In a Routine it may be given a particular “Value”, or (“Values” for Objects).  There instructions say then how to do that and handle(store) that(those). At Dim the created Paper is like a Blue Print that has some empty spaces not yet filled in. A String is a bit tricky. The Blue Print code line Paper in the Pigeon Hole will allow to note the string Length and an Initial start memory Location. This Location well have to change frequently as strings of different length are assigned. Instructiions will tell how to do this.

We require some of these '  CDO is an object library that exposes the interfaces of the Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI).

In other words this allows you to get at and use some of the stuff to do with the COM OLE Bollocks from within a programming language such as VBA  API is often referring loosely to do with using certain shipped with Windows software in Folders often having the extension dll. This extension , or rather the dll stands for direct link libraries. These are special sort of executable files of functions shared by many other (Windows based usually) software’s.

Stuff which is often, but not always, later stuff, or at a slightly higher level of the computer workings, or slightly more to a specific application ( an actual running "runtime" usage / at an instance in time , "instance of" ) orientated goes to the name of Object Linking and Embedding. At this lower level, there are protocols for communicating between things, and things relate are grouped into the  to Office  application available Library, CDO.

HTML For CDO.Message.HTMLBody in VBA Emails sending

Linked in my Binding Function, MyLenghtyString LBF_MLS

In support of this Thread:
http://www.excelfox.com/forum/showth...kbooks-at-once

HTM / HTML is a very typical electronic message language recognised by most software devices associated with Email and similar.
In two ways considered in this Thread , http://www.excelfox.com/forum/showth...0512#post10512 , the main Message Text body to be sent in an Email can be supplied as a single HTML code string.

One convenient way to supply this is with a simple Word.doc file which can simply saved with a htm file extension
Word doc to htm.JPG : https://imgur.com/vhRE9CC

By opening this with a simple text editor, the actual text along with much more htm code detail can be revealed
LastBitOfProMessage htm.JPG : https://imgur.com/mT6l40I
LastBitOfProMessage htm 2.JPG : https://imgur.com/s0U8419

This is the actual text required to be given after the an Email data filling code line like:
_ .HTMLBody =

The actual file held anywhere will likely include all sorts of computery stuff in addition to that text.
We can get at just the text in several ways.
A typical way in VBA is to make use of one of a number of Object Orientated stuff held in the Visual Basic FileSystemObject Object. This is in turn part of the Bundle in the available to application programs (such as Excel VBA) Library, Microsoft Scripting Runtime

The way this works is as follows.
For a given file, a large object can be made within the Microsoft Scripting Runtime Library Class type Module like Library, ** Polymorphically speaking.
The Microsoft Scripting Runtime FileSystemObject Object GetFile method returns this object requiring only its full file path in order to “Get at it” . ( The returned object is pseudo in the streaming runtime instant direct compiling linking .Net technology held as a running link, ( indeed by assigning the object to, or using in an environment of, String will itself return that arguments string reference ) )
**:From Microsoft documentation: Visual Basic provides polymorphism through multiple ActiveX interfaces. In the Component Object Model (COM) that forms the infrastructure of the ActiveX specification, multiple interfaces allow systems of software components to evolve and break existing code.
In this sense interface is a set of related properties and methods. Much of the ActiveX specification is concerned with implementing standard interfaces to obtain system services or to provide malfunctionality to other programs.
The actual processes involved are in the meantime so messed up that it is a wonder that anything still works, and I doubt it will be long before nothing does.
The large FileObject in the Microsoft Scripting Runtime Library Class type Module like Library has information , amongst other things of neighbouring things , and as is typical in this mixed up messed up process , a short tem path or highway is made, and more often than not a “text stream object”, something like a continuous stream of data or like a highways going around in circles, and this will only be of a runtime existence, or at any rate should.. during this lifetime it can be “read”. I guess for any file of any type data within it will be recognised as such and can be handled in this simple text stream way.

The original coding goes quite a way back and does not really fit in Object Orientated Visual basic hierarchical structure of the original implementation of File I/O in Visual Basic. But it does at lest work well in getting at text stream string things which we are interested in

The available methods and the such reflect all the above…
-…So code will have a string getting section that..
1(i) makes available the Library of stuff, objects, Methods etc.
1(ii) makes the big File Object
1(iii) sets up the data “stream highway”
1(iv) pulls in the data, in our case into a simple string variable


_.____
I have decided for my requirement to use a “Function” for this, not just to house tidily the above steps, but also as I may add some additional bits from time to time too the main inner body string for my Email message, which the main function of this all is to produce.
To recap on the Function idea here ( http://www.excelfox.com/forum/showth...blem#post10503 )

In end effect I want a String. In fact in the main code in which this should be embedded has this as a variable
Pseudo, Linked in my Binding Function, ObjectLinkedEbeded Stuff
In place of an actual static linked variable_...
Dim MyLenghtyString As String
_ Let MyLenghtyString = “static linked at pseudo Compile String”

_.. I have
Function MyLenghyString(Export) As String
_ Pall MyLenghyString()_Import
_.. or Let MyLenghtyString = “direct linked runny runable library”


The end result is that in my code I will have simply pulling of

_ .HTMLBody = MyLengthyStreaming


Function Code description:
Rem 1
This uses the File System Object way discussed above to finally produce a long text string in variable _ MyLengthyStreaming _ This string probably has a of unnecessary stuff as well as the required part of the HTML code, but appears to be able to be handled and manipulated as if it were just the required part. Presumably the rest is ignored by things such as internet browsers

Rem 2
This allows for some extra simple string data to be added. If you are not familiar with HTML code then you can easily get the required string from text to HTML converters of which there are many freely available in internet
Note: If you have any “ in your required HTML string, then you will need to replace them in the given string in the VBA code with “”
