MY GOAL: Batch convert all .TDM files in a folder to .XLS using an existing add-in by adapting this macro that only works 1 file at a time. (Also open to any VBA approach.)
Using an existing add-in, a single .TDM file is converted into a single .XLS workbook with multiple sheets.
I need to, instead of using a prompt to select a single .TDM file, automatically convert all .TDM files in a folder into new .XLS workbooks.
This is part of a multi-stage process. I tried various loops, mimicking other set-ups, and merging it with other code I found on various community boards.
FYI: .TDM files hold engineering data output produced by testing equipment.
Sub GetTDM_AddIn()
'Get TDM Excel Add-In
Dim obj As COMAddIn
Set obj = Application.COMAddIns.Item("ExcelTDM.TDMAddin")
'obj.Connect = True
'Confirm only importing "Description" properties for Root
Call obj.Object.Config.RootProperties.DeselectAll
Call obj.Object.Config.RootProperties.Select("Description")
'Show the group count as property
Call obj.Object.Config.RootProperties.Select("Groups")
'Select all the available properties for Group
Call obj.Object.Config.GroupProperties.SelectAll
'Import custom properties
obj.Object.Config.RootProperties.SelectCustomProperties = True
obj.Object.Config.GroupProperties.SelectCustomProperties = True
obj.Object.Config.ChannelProperties.SelectCustomProperties = True
'Let the user choose which file to import
Dim fileName
fileName = Application.GetOpenFilename("TDM & TDMS (*.tdm;*.tdms),*.tdm;*.tdms")
If fileName = False Then
' User selected Cancel
Exit Sub
End If
'Import the selected file
Call obj.Object.ImportFile(fileName)
'Record down the current workbook
Dim Workbook As Object
Set Workbook = ActiveWorkbook
End Sub
