Add Text Before Any Number

Sep 2, 2012

I have an excel spreadsheet of which one column contains product descriptions and tracklistings in each cell. I upload the spreadsheet to a website where the product description and tracklisting uses html. I need to add a line break to the tracklisting. So currently in my product description I have something like this;

Code:

Boston streetpunk!!! Hard, raw, still melodic and with very good vocals! The band did many sampler contributions in the past... Rebellion presents you their first official full-length album with 12 great songs in total!!!... Tracklist: 1. Thomas P Cullity 2. Jinx 3. Go For Broke 4. Last Chance 5. Boulevard Of Broken Dreams 6. Takin' Over 7. Burn 8. Another Round 9. Hell To Pay 10. Street Rule 11. Taken Away 12. City Rats but I need it to look like this;

Generate Text Value Based On Number Of Times ID Number Previously Appeared?

Aug 3, 2012

Is there a function that allows you to read column A for an ID (these may or may not include letters/numbers/"?", are non-sequential and are of variable lengths) and, if it is the first time that it has seen an ID column B will read "sample_1_arm_1", if its the second time it has seen an id it will read "sample_2_arm_1", etc? An example of what I am trying to do on a much larger scale:

id
event_name

Format Small Number Of Cells From Text To Number?

Mar 19, 2014

Text to Number or General.xlsx

The included, small database is formatted as text. It is a text feed from an outside source. I simply want to format the cells into either numbers or general format but not text... seems simple, and it should be, but the only way I can get this done is to go to each cell and access the formula bar and re-enter the number by pressing Enter.

).

The answer should be 4,457.

Automatic Update Of Cell Text Based On Item Number (also Text)?

Mar 28, 2014

I have a column C with different text in cells (item's title). Column D - relevant description for each of the items. 100+ rows.

Now, unfortunately, often a spreadsheet with items is updated with many new items. So I get a new spreadsheet with old and new items mixed. I need, somehow, to import descriptions of the old items (Column D of the old spreadsheet) to the new spreadsheet from old spreadsheet. So I want excel to look for old items in column A of the new spreadsheet and, once found, insert a description in the column B from old spreadsheet.

See attachment : Example for forum.xlsx

Insert Text In Front Of Text OR Number - User Defined Format

Sep 24, 2008

I can't seem to make user-defined format that puts a text in front of a number and/or a text.

Let's say I have A1: 13, A2: texttext A3: text7 and I want to format a lot of cells to "Ilike 13" / "Ilike texttext" / "Ilike text7"... ie add the same text in the front of the cell, no matter what the content is.

I did manage it seperately, with "texttext" @ for text and "texttext" # for numbers, but what's the general one?

Number Store As Text & Text Date With 2 Digit Year

Dec 23, 2008

I have a macro which will import data to the worksheet, then perform some formatting on the data, then assign the month & job description based on the lookup table. The problem is that when I import in the data, the data in column B&C will be store as text instead of number and the date in column E will store a 2 digit year instead on 4 digit year which cause error to my macro. I have try to preset the column format to number, i even try to change the column format to number when i run the format macro data. But the problem is still there.

Importing Text File (excel Treat Row Of Text As Number)

Dec 1, 2007

I created a vb macro to open a text file then process the file then close the file. Here is my problem:

Problem: THe text file has rows of data in it as follows

5155111111551511111111111511111111111111111

This row of text gets converted to

5.16E+42

because excel treats the row of text as a number but i dont want it to do this transition.

When i save the file and then reopen it using say NOTEPAD i see 5.16E+42 and not the long string of text.

I have a standard block of text with numbers in it pulled from various calculations in a financial model. I have done this through a formula

e.g. ="You gross profit percentage is " & D9 & "% and your gross profit is $" & D10 & "." Problem is i'd like to format the numbers that pull through so they are easier to read. At the moment in the above example D10 results in $-600000000. I'd like it to look like $(600,000,000).

Text To Number ...

Jan 10, 2007

I've a book with 13 sheets, I use sheets number 2 to sheet number 13 to paste data from a webpage as Text. Then that data is used on sheet number 1.

I'm having problems using the numbers coming from the pastes, in the webpage some come in fractions (4/11, 8/3, etc). I made a macro to change those cells from Text to number, but that doesn't make them usable as numbers when I refer them in sheet1. To make them usable, after changing the format from text to number, I've to double click on each cell I want to refer and just hit Enter, then the content changes, e.g, from 10/3 to 3.33. And then I can use the data as a number on sheet number1.

The vbs code is the following, it does the data pasting as text allright, but I don't know how to make usable those individual cells I was refering to before. Besides doing the work by hand.

Sub PegadoEspacialTexto()

Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:="Texto", Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:= _
False
Columns("E:E").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "0.00"

Assign Number To Text

Jan 23, 2014

I currently have a spreadsheet which I use to do an audit of the office stationery supplies.

There 3 columns at the focus of this question:

F - Number of items in stock
H - Stock re-ordering level
I - Order Required

I currently have an IF statement to tell me if I need to re-order any stock, by comparing the Number of items in stock against Stock Re-ordering level.

The statement is =IF(H1>=F1, "Yes","No")

This works fine under most circumstances. However, in some of the H cells, I have the text "Special" which indicates that the stock will only need re-ordering on a special occasion.

Any value I enter in F will cause the I to say "Yes".

Is there any way to make the word "Special" equivalent to 0, so I says "No"?

Convert Text To Number ...

May 14, 2007

I have a combobox embedded into an excel sheet with a linked cell and a range defined in the combobox properties. Every time I change the value in the combobox, the value in the linked cell is stored as text instead of a number.

I have tried copying a cell containing 1 and copying and pasting as special into the linked cell but that only fixes it for the time being. If I change the value in the combobox again, the value in the linked cell is again stored as text. I tried =value() in the linked cell but that again only worked temporarily. Every time I change the value in the combobox, the value in the linked cell is stored as text.

Converting Text To Number

Mar 16, 2009

I am currently trying to find an easy way to convert cell references to number format. The issue I'm having is when compiling a small formula (CONCATENATE) as part of a macro in order to produce a unique reference number to a column of data (1000's of cells long) I come accross the age old number stored as text issue after the macro has converted the formula to values.

Have tried editing the macro to number stored as text = false which removes the annoying little red triangle but the vlookup functions still wont read the values. My current solution is to highlight the entirity of the data and convert to number which takes a long long time as there are multiple lookups assigned to the cells, which for my current project is not acceptable.

Am looking for a quick solution, (with no interaction required) something that would convert the cells to the format required either before the formula is assigned and overwritten by values or just after. Currently I'm stumped.

Format Into Text/ Number Value

May 15, 2009

I have a data set which is in a date format of MM/DD/YY. I have converted it to YYYYMMDD. I now need to copy and permanently past the values so that the value within the cell always reads to result of the date in the format of YYYYMMDD.

Example:
-current = 07/01/08
-new format = 20080701 (cell still reads 07/01/08)
-would like the cell to read 20080701

My main goal is to bring this into Access and use this dataset with another data set, which uses the YYYYMMDD format.
