Adding Bold Tags To Parts Of A String?

Oct 21, 2011

I'm trying to figure out a macro that will add b and /b tags around bold text. Bolded text can appear multiple times within a cell. I need it to run on all cells within a sheet.

So I need it to:
1. Search for bold strings within cells
2. Identify the length of the bolded strings
3. Add b and /b at the beginning and end of those strings
4. Repeat for all active cells

The only macro I was able to work out adds tags to only the last bolded string, whereas I need the tags on several non-continuous strings.

Selecting Only Parts Of A String Of Text

Nov 18, 2013

I need separating parts of a string of text to go into separate columns.

Fortunately the spreadsheet is in the same format in relation to spaces and numbers of characters with the exception of the red text which can be any where between 2 and 50 characters.

I actually need AL46 to go to Col B, 001488616 into Col C, Valve, Pressure Equalizing, Gaseous into Col D and D03079/0002 into Col E.

(65) AL46 ALSPO 0299999999 A20LS DISPOSALS.(001488616) Valve, Pressure Equalizing, Gaseous.D03079/0002

Bold Repeated String In Cell?

Aug 29, 2012

I am trying to write some code that will look in an excel cell find if it contains the word that I am looking for and make it bold. I have written the following code so far

VB:
With Worksheets("Label Print").Cells(i, J)
.Characters(Start:=InStr(.Value, "Name"), Length:=Len("Name")).Font.Bold = True
End With
[COLOR=#3E3E3E][B][/B][/COLOR]

The issue is that if "Name" occurs twice (or more) in a cell it will highlight only the first.

Copy Format And Bold Titles In String?

Apr 24, 2014

I'm working on a Excel template where 6 cells are filled with text. Now I want to put all the text in those cells into one 'result cell'. I already know how to put the cell values into strings and paste them beneath each other.

My problem is that I don't only want to copy the cell values but also the formatting, because all of the separate cells have a bold title. If I only copy the values the formatting isn't copied with it, so my question is:

How do I copy the cell formatting (bold titles) with it or how can I make a string bold?? Beneath is my code:

Lookup Function: Compare Every Part In The All Parts Worksheet To See If The Part Number Exists On The Active Parts Sheet

Dec 10, 2008

I have a spreadsheet with 2 worksheets. On the first "active parts" I have a list of active part numbers and on the second "All Parts" I have all of the parts available.

I want to compare every part in the All Parts worksheet to see if the part number exists on the Active Parts sheet - if it's there, I would like it to return the value "Active" in column B in All Parts. I have a formula in column B in All Parts that seems to work for the first few, but as soon as it finds one that is active, the rest of the cells below all return "Active".

Search Parts Of Columns Looking For Matches In Parts Of Other Columns In A Row

Mar 1, 2014

I have sheets with names of people in columns....some married...some not. When they are married, here's a sample format...

Jones, Donald T | Baker, Sarah Jane | Jones, Sarah Jane | Smith, Sarah J | Jones, Sarah Jane Smith

In this example, I would like to be able to determine which of the Sarah's belongs to Donald w/o having to visually look at each record ( 100,000's of records). (FYI: the names for Sarah would/could be her Maiden Name and possibly a name or two from a former marriage). What I need to be able to do is match and extract the names of Jones, Donald T and Jones, Sarah Jane and Jones, Sarah Jane Smith and eliminate Smith, Sarah J and Baker, Sarah Jane.

In my example, Donald is in the first column, but can be in any column on a row so the name positions are random across the columns. However, the format for each column is then same...Last Name, First Name Middle Name(or Initial) with a comma always after the last name in each column. The length of the last name also varies.

VBA or Formula that will search the cells in the columns of each row and return the names (complete contents of the cells with matching last names) that have a matching last name for that row.

Adding To String Values

May 17, 2006

I am having a issue with adding to string values. Basically I have created a variable that will take the value of a Column. This Column number will need to be moved to the next column and so on. I dont know if I have explained that very well. I will give a example

Say Column = "C"
I need to add the a variable that has taken the value "C" and change it to "D". The variable will only ever be 1 character long. How would I add to the ascii value of the variable so that the value changes up to the next letter. This will have to work if they enter lower case aswell.

I know this seems a simple task but I cant for the life of me find out how to add the ascii values.

Adding A Cell In A Text String

Aug 10, 2009

I was able to find the syntax to add a cell within a text string but I am having a formatting problem. The cells which I am adding were using formulas that left decimals. Although I turned off all of the decimals on the cell, the values when I used the cell within the text string included all of the decimals and in some cases 6 or more decimal places. Is there a way to keep the formatting of the cell?

Extract Numbers From String (multiple Cells) And SUM Without Adding Additional Column

Apr 10, 2013

i have data stored like:

col1

XXXX1244 50
XXXX1519 60
XXXX1244 50
xxxxx1111 10
xxxxx1519 65

the last 4 caracters are numbers. I need to test these numbers and sum the corresponding values them in a single cell without adding new column(SUMIF like).

so in the above example I need to sum all ending at 1244 or 1519, therefore the sum showed in the single cell equals 225

to extract from a single cell: =VALUE(RIGHT(D8;4))

I tried to use an array formula but it seems to crash if a blank cell is in the array

How To Import XML Identifying Certain Tags / Headers

Aug 17, 2010

I am about to re write my vba project as I can see that I need to make it more robust. One of the main issues I have is that the source XML file is not controlled by me. The quality and content is consistent but sometimes the order of the columns is different. At the moment that totally throws out my macro as it relies on certain columns for certain functions.

Trying to nut out the best way to import an XML file, keep only the specific columns I want - by content not location so then all follow on formula's will work and reference the correct data.

I have one theory that I can't get going. I thought if using defined names based on column headers this would allow me to keep and sort the columns I want. I can't find any examples to support this. I have been looking at the advanced filter but most examples reference exact cells which isn't flexible and leaves open to wrong data being pulled. Since I can't control the source doc what can I do?

Sorting Bag Tags Based On Scores

Jun 2, 2014

Here is the data i'm working with.

Name of player
Score of round
bag tag the player came in with
bag tag the player is leaving with

Here is what I'm trying to accomplish. I usually just copy and paste (then sort the data) but I want a spreadsheet that I can enter raw data and just look at the results I will already have the players names in my sheet. Before the round I'll get everyone's tags it will not always be in order (EX: 1,3,15,22,34,66...etc) some tags will always be missing. After the round I'll enter the scores. What I can't figure out is how to leave my sheet in alphabetical order and have my spreadsheet populate the "leaving tag" column with the correct tag based on the players score....

name score tagin tagout
bob 22 2 2
carl 44 15 23
ed 33 23 15

Can't tell if that translated, couldn't use a table....

basically I would like to leave column A where it is the whole time add the data to column B and C The use the data from column B to sort the values from column C numerically to column D (basically copy and rank then display the numbers in order). To throw in a twist if the data in column B is the same for two or more people the formula would need to take the lower number from column C to determine who gets the lower tag in column D.

having to create some kind of database in access....

I know you can go to source data, and select the cells that you want the pie chart to display, but the problem with that, is when the data is refreshed the data in the cells refresh, whereas the pie chart tags do no.

Displaying Comments And Tags From Files With Excel VBA

Finding a way to tell excel to pull Comments and Tags from files. I pulled the following code from another source:

'Force the explicit delcaration of variables
Option Explicit
Sub ListFiles()

'Declare the variables
Dim objFSO As Scripting.FileSystemObject
Dim objTopFolder As Scripting.Folder

I have been using it to get the Name, Size, Type, and relevant Dates associated with files in a folder. However, this doesn't seem to work with finding Comments, Tags, etc.

I have found functions that are used to pull Comments and Tags from files but haven't been able to incorporate them in to the code I already have.
