Is there a better way to separate one column into two, other than "Text To Columns" I am trying to separate a 'Chair Logic' from one comma or hyphen and don't want to separate it from the other. (ie. F335-2743,XH-4,S0-24 to F335-2743 | XH-4,S0-24) and (C-24-11-1T7-TRFJ-TRF-TRLE to C-24-11 | 1T7-TRFJ-TRF-TRLE).
View 11 RepliesI have a macro which imports data from a mainframe dump text file and performs 'Text to Columns' on the imported data so that formula in the spreadsheet can act on the data. The code works perfectly well when I use it, but if a different user logs on and performs exactly the same mainframe dump and import macro the Text to Columns action splits the raw data in a different way and the result is that the split renders the formulae useless.
I've experimented a little and for some reason it appears that the 'Field Info' parameters which are produced when the Text to Columns function is recorded in a macro differ between users even though the raw data is exactly the same.
FieldInfo:= _
Array(Array(0, 1), Array(18, 1), Array(35, 1), Array(56, 1), Array(70, 1), Array(88, 1), _
Array(102, 1))
how to set one entire columns text to two different colors based on another columns values. So for example I have column A and B. Column A has two values called Internal and External. Column B is a title table so the entire column is just titles. We'll say it goes for 20 rows if you need a row count. What I am looking to do change the text in Column B to Red for External and Blue for Internal. I tried the conditional formatting and I just can't seem to find the right option.
I'm using Win 8.1, Office 2013.
I've got some time values in an Excel Sheet in the format hh:mm:ss. I need to split them into columns (including the colon) like below:

(b) Their office location which is directly after the persons name and is in brackets e.g. (Newcastle User)
(c) The Approving persons name which is preceded by ‘Approved by’ e.g. Approved by Christine Hunting

I am trying to write a micro code to split text which is copied into cell A1 into columns. I can do this fine by going to "data" the "text to Columns" and selecting the places i want to split the text (this is the same for every piece of data i copy in).
The macro works perfectly every time. the problem is that the spreadsheet is shared and i want to protect certain cells on the sheet, when i protect the sheet the recorded macro does not work as the "data", "text to columns" is not available in a protected workbook.
I was just wondering if someone could help me, so i can run a macro to split the text which also allows me to protect cells. In the "text to column" option the "fixed width" (column breaks) i choose are: 4, 25, 34 and 43.
I have a cell that has a comma separated value that is 354 fields long. As such, if I use the Text To Columns feature to split the data at each column, I lose several columns (because excel cannot have that many columns).
How can I break the data at the comma, but have it list in rows instead?
In Column A1:A10 I have a really long series of alpha numberic digits in each cell.
I use this macro with text to column to split them up for me into different columns.

I am having quite a bit of a challenge here and am not able to code to split the text into columns. The text to columns does not work here unfortunately. Below is my situation. In one column that has the contract details I have the data as follows:

Account Manager Janet Bewers CONSULTING - GENERAL on 25-JUL-13 Function #:176878

how to create a formula to sum the top 10 numbers of column C only IF Column A contains cell reference D1, and Column B contains cell reference D2.
Column A is all text colors
Column B is all text vehicles
Column C is all numbers
Column D1 contains the word RED
Column D2 contains the word CAR
I have used two cells to do this when column A is RED, however i cant figure out how to add in a filter for Column B (D2 CAR).
1st column cell E1 contains: =LARGE((A:A=D1)*C:C,10)
2nd column cell F1 contains: =SUMIFS(C:C, C:C,">="&E1,B:B,"="&'Sales Summary'!D1)
formula thats easier or able to filter for the above?
In one column J there are five digit numbers like 45678.Can with the help of a formula or code/macro, the process of text to columns can be done in one click, instead of going through the process available so that the data is scattered in J,k,l,m,n columns.

I have a list of items with a cell, however these are on seperate lines (using Alt+Ent) function. Example of entered text within the cell below:
_UN
_OD
_PN
_H
The beginning of each line will always start with an underscore ( _ ). The items within the list will either be 2 or 3 characters long (which includes the underscore).
The required output I'd like is (spaces used to indicate seperate cells):
_UN _OD _PN _H
I'm trying to use the 'Text to Column' function to solve my problem, however I haven't yet managed to get it to work. I've tried using the 'Fixed Width' function within this, however when I use this, it inserts an 'Enter' within the cell, which I don't want.
Does anyone else have a solution? Any help would be appreciated. Preferably I'd like this to be automatic using a formula, instead of me having to click the 'Text to Column' button each time.

I am trying to track street pavement for a city and as you can imagine, there is a lot of data entry.
At the end of the day, I will need to know the total length of streets with brick, asphalt, and concrete. Column 'D' has the street material (Asphalt, Brick, Concrete) and Column 'E' will have the length. At the bottom of the sheet, under column 'E', I have cells that will show the total length for streets with Asphalt (E61), Brick (E63), and Concrete(E65), so I need a formula to enter in those cells that will look for the specific pavement materials it is totalling
Also, I am tracking streets with/without curb and gutter. If a street doesn't have it, I need to track how much will be needed. Basically, it will be the length (Column E) times 2 (both sides of the street). In column 'G' there will either be 'Yes' or 'No'. If 'Yes', then I don't need a total and the cell containg the amount of curb and gutter need (Column 'J') will be blank. However, if 'No', Column 'J' will have the total amount of curb and gutter needed ('E??' x 2)
Obviously the sheets will be different lengths so the cells will need to be copied and pasted.
I use text to columns everyday at work. Each report that I insert is in the exact same formatting and spacing. So, I open the text file, and manually enter line breaks each time. Is there a way to import text into an already broken up table? Or a way to open a file and it recognizes where to break up the lines without me having to manually click them in each time?
