问题


The answers to How can I install/use “Scripting.FileSystemObject” in Excel 2011 for MAC? seem to indicate that using Scripting.FileSystemObject in Excel 2010 for the mac is not possible.

What other alternative is available so I can:

  • get a collection of all Excel files in a specific directory
  • iterate through each worksheet within each file and export it to a .csv file

Currently this is a six-step process for each file:

--how to create CSV files for all worksheets in a file:
1. open file
2. click "Developer"
3. click editor
4. click ThisWorkbook
5. copy in:
Sub save_all_csv()
    On Error Resume Next
    Dim ExcelFileName As String
    ExcelFileName = ThisWorkbook.Name
    For Each objWorksheet In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
        Filename = "FILE-" & ExcelFileName & "-WORKSHEET-" & objWorksheet.Name & ".csv"
        objWorksheet.SaveAs Filename:="Macintosh HD:Users:edward:Documents:temporaryNoBackup:" & Filename, FileFormat:=xlCSV, CreateBackup:=False
    Next
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Application.Quit
End Sub
6. click run (it closes by itself)

I'm looking for a way to automate this on the Mac, ideally, a (cron job?, service?) would open the excel file every 10 minutes, which would in turn look in a directory, convert all the other Excel files to .csv files, and then close by itself.

Without Scripting.FileSystemObject, how can I make this Excel-to-CSV conversion fully automatic on the Mac?

The only way I can think of is using the "Dir" function. Since mac supports extra characters in their filenames, wildcards do not work with the "Dir" function. Here is a sample.

Function GetFileList(folderPath As String) As Collection
'mac vba does not support wildcards in DIR function

    Dim file As String
    Dim returnCollection As New Collection

    If Right$(folderPath, 1) <> "/" Then
        folderPath = folderPath & "/"
    End If

    file = Dir$(folderPath) 'setup initial file

    Do While Len(file)
        returnCollection.Add folderPath & file
        file = Dir$
    Loop

    Set GetFileList = returnCollection
End Function
