My application is in vba and I want to log information in text file which required four columns. The tool should open the log file and log the issue and close the file immediately so that other processes running in parallel could also post the issues to it without loss of data. Keep appending to the log file.
Log file should look like: LogFile.txt
I want to bring in text files that result in a single column and then want to be able to align equal text in the column next to each other. I used to be able to do some moderate programming in FoxPro and used a transaction that was called set relationship to field+field, etc.
If there is no equal text in either of the other columns then I have tried to set it to a column by itself. Of course this comes data comes in all in one column with no spaces. I have searched the help files and the net and just can't find a way to do this. I'm thinking this might be attuned to Access more than Excel but I am not proficient in this. Right now I am doing a cut and paste to make this work but some of the imported text have upwards of 800 lines.
My question is about aligning text in ListBox columns. In a ListBox, I have 5 columns. I need each column's text to be aligned in its own way, independent of other columns. The following explains my need more specifically.
I need the text in column 1 to flush right against column 2, and for column 2 to flush left against column 1. I need column three centered. And I need the text in column 4 to flush right against column 5, and the text in column 5 to flush left against column 4.
My current spreadsheet shows text that's aligning just slightly to the left of center. In the Format Cells menu under Alignment, I have selected Center for both Horizontal and Vertical. There is no indent. Orientation is 0 degrees. Text is set to wrap. Merge cells is unchecked. Text direction is Context.
When I double click a cell to change the text, it centers correctly as the cursor blinks. But when I click somewhere else and it stops blinking and allowing me to type in the cell, it aligns slightly to the left of center.
I have an existing spreadsheet with a column of strings (actually VIN numbers). These numbers correllate to a bunch of text files, that can exist in one of three folders (UsernameDesktop1, 2, or 3) on my desktop. What I need the macro to do is:
1) get the filename from A2 (A1 is a heading row)
2) Find the appropriate text file in one of the three folders
3) Put the folder name into I2
4) Scan the text file for some strings, and copy some data that follows those strings into J2:O2 (I can handle programming this)
5) Close the text file
6) repeat above for the remainder of filenames (about 1800 files)
Got a slight problem; I am making a "worker-plan", where you should be able to write a name on one file and have it updated (removed) from the equivalent columns on another file automatically. Here's an example with two separate projects:
Project 1 before and after changes:
Attachment 257366
Attachment 257367
Project 2 before and after changes:
Attachment 257368
Attachment 257369
You can see here how I intended it to work. When one worker is moved from Project 1 to Project 2, that worker should also be removed from those weeks in Project 1. The previous worker from Project 2 should also be removed from those weeks (in Project 2).
Are there any formulas that can make this work automatically? All week numbers will belong to the same columns in all files.
Edit: There are 30 files that should be syncronized, not just two.. I could also gather all files into one file with sheets, instead of having seperate files.
How do I sort out columns aligning them to match data in another column?
Column B is 200 rows long all with data such as FLEZ054246. Columns C is 100 rows long but it will match some from B. I need to align C,D,E with B as long as C & B match. The rows that don't match can be left open for C, D, E.

Column B Column C Column D Column E

Column D has dates within the range in Column A but at odd days (e.g. 4/2/07, 10/2/07)
Column E has data which corresponds to the date in Column D.

I have a data set with raw data from an online survey with >2000 rows of data, with each row varying in width from 2 columns to 4 columns wide of data, located in columns A through D. Each row has the value 2 in it as well as some additional values on either the right or left side (the location of the value 2 varies -- so it's not always in the same column). Picture attached of some example data for clarification:
Picture 1.png
I want to figure out if there is a function that can align all of the 2's in the same column -- let's say Column C -- while maintaining the same data that was to the right or left of the 2 (up to two values on either side) before all of the 2's were aligned in the same column.
I could certainly manually align the central column by copying and pasting repeatedly, but that would take an incredibly long time -- and I am sure that there is a better way to do this. I can use a VLOOKUP function to align all of the 2's in a column as well as everything to the right, but I have tried using the INDEX and MATCH functions to do a VLOOKUP to the left, but this doesn't seem to be working because the source column (where the number 2 is) varies by row, so it doesn't match in the same way that a VLOOKUP function does.
Any way to vertically and horizontally center an autoshape in a cell without VBA. I created a shape and placed it in a cell but don't think it is centered. Also, if I add shapes to adjacent cells, I would want them all to be centered directly in the middle of the cells they are in. Using the align feature only seems to make sure the shapes are aligned to each other but doesn't seem to put them in the center of their respective cells.

I 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))
See example attached. I am building a form where a user need to provide different criteria to receive a specific hourly rate. Conditions are:-
1. Age
2. A / B / C / D
3. Weekend (W) or Mid Week (M)
There are 4 age groups, 4 categories (A,B etc) and 2 Daily rates, therefore there are 32 different possible rates. I have considered nested if statements but I think this would be a very long formula - is this the only answer?

The blank rows need to remain uniform. When I need to paste in August's data the blank rows in the raw data extract are aligned differently and it's a laborious job deleting and inserting cells to get them to align (the sheet has hundreds of rows).
I'm capable enough of recording a macro to replicate the delting/inserting of cells BUT of the 50 or so sheets I need to update there's no uniformity of where the blank rows occur. To further exacerbate, there's no uniformity over where the blank rows occur in the data that needs to be pasted in, either. The blank rows already in the worksheets HAVE to remain and can't be deleted or altered.
I have two different columns of currency time series data with dates that do not align. One trades Monday-Friday, the other seven days a week.

b) (not as good an option, as I will lose data) is delete the Saturday and Sunday data from the longer series that trades on the weekend.
