Find the ASCII character code for the characters in cells A3-D3? I have a problem importing data into the database because of these cells. They have some weird properties: ISBLANK would return them FALSE; however if I leave blank space in "Find and Replace" it will find and replaces those cells together with cells which are genuinely blank. So I could theoretically go and replace all blank cells to some character (for example ^), then do the opposite and replace ^ into blank and it would solve the problem, but I am curious as to what exactly this character is.
I have a sheet A1:R456 provided from an outside source, with many large text entries. In some of them appear various ascii strings such as, but not exclusively: •
It appears these have replaced apostrophe's, dashes, and other types of punctuation and formatting (bullets, etc).
I have used the Find (Ctrl-F) to locate some, but it only works if you know what you're looking for. According to Excel HELP! :o Clean() only strips the lower 32 ascii codes, and I'm pretty sure these are at the high end of the ascii chart.
I don't want to remove them, I want to replace them, but I'm not sure if it should be an apostrophe, a dash, or whatever. So I'd be happy to find them and I'll fix it as best I can.
Any VBA code to locate all cells in a range that contain any high-order ascii (say above 127) and fill with yellow?
Private Sub Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer) If KeyAscii = Chr(vbKeyA) Then If sngXFactor 1 Then sngXFactor = -1 sngYFactor = 0 End If ElseIf KeyAscii = Chr(vbKeyW) Then If sngYFactor -1 Then sngXFactor = 0 sngYFactor = -1 End If ElseIf KeyAscii = Chr(vbKeyD) Then If sngXFactor -1 Then sngXFactor = 1 sngYFactor = 0 End If ElseIf KeyAscii = Chr(vbKeyS) Then If sngYFactor 1 Then sngXFactor = 0 sngYFactor = -1 End If End If End Sub
That is what I have right now, basically I just want to map W, A, S, and D to change variables. What am I doing wrong?
Keep in mind that this is a userform and not an excel worksheet.
1. What i need to do is Read the 1st Character in the Hex Code which say A now.
2. Now I need to find if there is another A in this Hex Code. If yes - e.g A4EC 9A - I need to find the difference between A-A. How many characters are in between the 2 A-A. So for this I have A 4EC9 A so the difference is 4. 2.1 - Another Senario of "A" - A 4EC9ACF4 A the difference is 8 characters
3. Next we will move on to the next Letter which is 4 and do our search.
The key is i only want to record those Hex code which have a difference of 4,8,10,12 differences.
So for that above example I should be able to record the following :
A 4EC9 A == 4 letter difference 4 A020 4 == 4 letter difference A 4EC9ACF4 A == 8 letter difference 4 EC9ACF4A020 4 == 10 letter difference E C9ACF4A02044 E == 12 letter difference
I am importing multiple ascii files into one workbook, each file into a single sheet of the workbook. When I manually import an ascii file, everything works and formats fine. When I import the file or files with my macro, the formatting of the values in the ascii file isnt working correctly, that is, if a value is for instance 51,442 (, being the decimal seperator), it is input to the cell as 51,442, as in fifty one thousand, four hundred forty two..My import function is below, and I have tried various combinations of using the decimal seperator command and thousands seperator command, all to no avail..
Lastly, in case it matters, this is on a PC with regional settings set to Germany as well.
Below an example of the import which I found online earlier..
x = 1 Set wkbTemp = Workbooks.Open(Filename:=FilesToOpen(x)) wkbTemp.Sheets(1).Copy Set wkbAll = ActiveWorkbook wkbTemp.Close (False) wkbAll.Worksheets(x).Columns("A:A").TextToColumns _ Destination:=Range("A1"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _ TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, _ ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, _ Tab:=True, Semicolon:=False, _ Comma:=False, Space:=False, _ Other:=False, DecimalSeparator:="," x = x + 1
I want to write code so that at the push of a button you can browse and find an ascii file. Select it. and then it will go into the sheet of a excel file that you chose in the code.
I have some dates that I want to reformat. The file is an ascii text file, and I have imported this into excel. There are 7 and 8 character lengths
3122007 10122007
I want the dates to be all 8 characters (with a zero in front of the 7 character dates), and also I want to reverse the format, so it will read 20071203
I have a number of methods but nothing has worked yet.
After this I plan to export the file as a comma separated ascii txt file. I managed to import it, but I'm not sure how to export it.
I've written a program to read data into a custom table from ASCII files. The ASCII files are created from a VB script I've added to an Excel spreadsheet. The VB script in Excel is the following:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim str_fileName As String Dim int_fileNum As Integer Dim str_fileName2 As String Dim int_fileNum2 As Integer MsgBox "Testing" str_fileName = "\EPCOR02COLLECTSinto.txt" str_fileName2 = "\EPCOR02COLLECTDisa.txt" Application.EnableEvents = False If (Target.Address = "$D$2") Then 'Write to the Sinto file On Error Goto Err_CreateOutputFile int_fileNum = FreeFile...............................
My question is about converting a Literal String to Character Code. I'm using the following coded InputBox. And it prompts the user for what characters to search for in a string.
I really need a validation code for Cell B15. I realize that a macro could do this, but a validation code is what I really would need:
Cell B15 can only allow at least one of the following values, or two or more of the following values separated by '&' (Note the spaces between the digits):
I I I I I I IV IA I IA I I IA IVA
or (some combination examples): IA & I I I I I & I I IA I VA & I IA
If the user fails to meet these requirements, then he should get an error message telling him to try again.
In any cell of a worksheet, the user can input a number followed by either a plus or minus sign. After the - or + key is pressed, the cell has to move the plus or minus to the front of the number, then move down one cell. So input in cell A2 would be 125+, that needs converted to +125 and then moved down to cell A3.
This is column a and b. Looking at b I am looking for a formula that will pull the first capital letter out of each word like ACR to create color codes.
I have got a list of numeric abbreviations, for instance 10739011/21/31/41. What it should really display are the numbers 10739011, 10739021, 10739031 and 10739041 (the first six figures stay the same). All the numbers in my list are 8 figures long. I want to change the list from the list seperated by the backward slash to the complete numbers. I have uploaded an example of the list with backward slash between the numbers. Is there a way that Excel can automatically change these numbers to the full numbers?
Because all the numbers are 8 figures long, I thought the first 6 figures of the 1st number can be copied and those 6 figures pasted before the other two figures after the backslash. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;sorry, pressed OK too quickly. The problem is that there are sometimes 4 numbers in the cell, sometimes 6 and once three. I would like Excel to complete all the numbers in the cell and then move on to the cell underneath it and so on. Also, I would like each number to have it's own cell.
I have a cell which will contain SER01+SER02+SER03
and what i need it to contain is [SER01]+[SER02]+[SER03]
and shocker is i've got this to work for the first instance but not the other two
code as below... be grateful for your help
Sub measure1() Dim list As String, pos As Integer, refl As String, refr As String, newlist As String list = Cells(1472, 16).Value pos = InStr(list, "+") refl = Left(list, pos - 1) refr = Right(list, pos + 1) newlist = "[" & refl & "]" Cells(1472, 17) = newlist End Sub
Need a formula/code that will determine what the corrected part number should be (insert dashes if they are missing) by comparing to other values in the list.
I use excel 2002 but some of my office are on 97, i want to add a small workbook open event code which works for me but debugs for the others?? The code is basically, go to a tab, on that tab and that range sort..
I've developed a little software using Excel Macros & VB. To prevent people from accesing the code I protected the code blocking it from visualization. It seems not enough as an acquaintance of a friend cracked it in 25 minutes. Or so he says. So I'd like to know if there is a better way to protect the font code.
I would like to create an If Then statement in which the condition is based on if a string is a simple text or a formula. Some of my cells contain a formula and some contain simple text...and I would like to cycle through all of them- only do something different to them based on what the cell contains.
I have some cells with some spaces and then text where I want to find the position of the first letter. Do any of you know about any function I can use?
The example below contain 5 spaces and then my name. It should give me the answer 6.
i have a column that is 1900 long and i need to add a "comma" to the end of everything in each cell in that column. How do i go about this? so at the moment it look like this:
Here's what I'd like to accomplish: For each row that contains a URL that ends with a / I would like to remove it. If I use the find/replace feature, it would remove all /'s, which I don't want since a good majority of the URL's contain the /'s in various parts of the URL, such as in the example above. I'd also like to accomplish adding a / to the end of every URL for a list that does not have the /'s at the end.
I'm looking to create a macro that will take a input from extract master.xls workbook and search that contain in the transaction.xls workbook.
I need not want to search the entire row exactly, instead if the search string found any where in that row, that search string alone need to be removed from that row.
I'm adding some necessary code to the beginning and end of some cell contents in Format | Cells | Custom and I seem to be coming up against a character limit.
I'm using the phrase "!!<"@">!!" to add the code, but with some cell contents the result is ########### (but much longer), and I'm having to remove some of the text to make it work. The limit seems to be around 255 characters.
Is there a way to do a left formula where you can have it pull the whole cell except the last character? Basically, I have a sentence that looks like this:
apples, oranges, pears,
And I want to drop that last comma. But the length of the each cell varies from row to row.
