How to install ceiling fan/light in bedroom (no light fixture/wiring in ceiling)
The bedroom I would like to install a ceiling fan with light fixture has no wiring in the ceiling. Can I affix a new wire directly from the light switch and run it up to the ceiling? the light switch also works one of the bedroom outlets? thanks

Assuming that you are able to run a Romex line you will also need to install the correct box designed for ceiling fans and ensure that it is mounted properly per code. Standard boxes will not support the fan and can't be used.
