I've got a sheet in which I want a drop down box, to ADD the value* to a cell, not overwriting its current value!
*The name of the selected option in the drop down box, the names are located in Map3!A1-n, I set the drop down box to display the related number in a cell next to it.
The cell would contain some text, and by selecting something in the drop down box, it would add the name of that option to the already existing value in the cell.
So if at first the cell's value is
Hi! I 'm Mark,
and you select the following option from the dropdown box
I 'm from Holland!
the cell would end with the value
Hi! I 'm Mark, I'm from Holland!
This would probably work with a macro, already made a start with it but I couldn't get it to ADD the value instead of overwriting it.
I am looking for a macro to convert a 6 digital serial number into an 8 digit serial number by adding "00" to the front. ie. The cell may say 123456, but I need to change it to display 00123456.
I write a daily status report that adds my daily comment to a cell with previous text in it. I then paste it in three other cells. This process is slow and tedious since the text in the cell is now becoming extremely long due to organizational and managerial restraints of the existing format. I use cut and paste and manual enter, a alt + enter, to space new comment. I would like to be able to enter the text in a cell and have it update the comment cell with the text in it and to update the text box. I have reviewed the forum and have yet to find the answer and use of how else to pose the questions.
I have a filename written in cell A1- eg dog.jpg - and I want to insert a set character string just before the .jpg part. ie so it becomes dog_test.jpg in B1. How would you guys do it? I've been thinking of really long-winded methods that'd use several cells, but I reckon there might be a cleverer way!
I have data that covers multiple rows that I need to merge into one row.
Header:| InvoiceNumber | Type | Name Row1: | 1000 | Payor | Doe, John Row2: | 1000 | Payor | Smith, Mary Row3:| 1000 | Payee| Jones, Henry Row4:| 1000 | Payee | Jones, Bob
I need to get those four example rows down to one row such as:
Header | InvoiceNumber | Payor | Payee Row1: | 1000 | Doe, John & Smith, Mary | Jones, Henry & Jones, Bob
The number of payor/payee can vary between 1 and several. I need some way to loop through and keep appending the names in one cell separated by a "&". And then deleting all the duplicate rows (based on InvoiceNumber).
I'd like my macro (in an Excel 2010 workbook) to copy values from three worksheet cells and append them to an existing Access or SQL database file -- without having to leave my Excel spreadsheet or open any other programs. The database file simply needs to be appended. Keeping a running list. That file isn't being used for anything else, we can set it up however is necessary to do this.
For example, Excel cells A1, A2, and A3. Representing Job Name, Job Number and Job Total.
how make VBA do this(in SIMPLE terms)? Or give me a link of where to look or what to search for? I understand VBA but not Access or SQL.
I am trying to Lookup a country to see if it is classified as a "Developed Country".
My formula would be in cell AA4. I want to see if the country in cell B4 is on a list of developed country's on another worksheet. IF the country is found on that list cell AA4 displays Developed. If the country is not on the list, cell AA4 displays Emerging.
I have tried an IF statement using the Match function and it does not work.
=IF(MATCH(B4,'Developed Country List'!$A$2:$A$37,0), "Developed", "Emerging")
I have a userform ("UserForm12"). It has a ComboBox ("ComboBox1"), and 2 Textboxes ("Textbox1" and "Textbox2), and 1 commandbutton ("Commandbutton1"). What I am looking for is the ComboBox to populate with all items on WS "Recommendations" in columnA starting at Row8 (this needs to be dynamic to adjust for when items are added to end). The user will select the item in the combobox then fill out "Textbox1" and "Textbox2". The user will then hit "Commandbutton1". This will take "Textbox1" and "Textbox2" to the columnR cell of the same row of the columnA value chosen in the combobox. It will be formatted as such:
"TodaysDate" + "Textbox1" + ":" + "Textbox2"
Todays Date will be in "mm/dd/yy" format.
The catch here is that These columnR cells already have text. My goal was for it to at this date onto the end of the existing text hopefully while using the ALT+ENTER function which skips it to the next line in the cell.
I am having problems adding data to exisiting text in each row of column E. The following macro is replacing the current text in each row with "V-1954". I need it to add "V-1954" to the begining of the text in each row of column E not over write it.
Range("D2").Select Do Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Value) 'Fill in Column E ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value = "V-1954" 'Move down one cell ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select Loop
I would like to append data from Columns A-F to a text file. The key thing is that the data needs to be tab separated just as it would be if I simply highlighted it and copied it and the pasted it into the text file.
I have a simple code that should insert the text at the beginning of the text file (the text file already has some text in it). When i use the following code, it just appends the line to the end of the text. I need it to append it to the start of the text file.
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim file As String lastrow = Range("D65536").End(xlUp).Row - 4 file = "C:Users11126923Desktop est.txt" Open file For Append As #1 f = "hi test3" Print #1, f Close End Sub
I want to open multiple .csv files from a single directory and append them to one workbook. The following code partly works, but appends only the first line from each file.
Sub GetFiles() Dim w As Worksheet, fn As String, k As Long Application. ScreenUpdating = False Set w = ActiveSheet k = Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Row If Not IsEmpty(Cells(k, 1)) Then k = k + 1 fn = Dir("*.csv") While fn <> "" Workbooks.OpenText Filename:=fn, Origin:=xlWindows, StartRow:=1, _ DataType:=xlDelimited, TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, _ Tab:=False, Semicolon:=False, Comma:=True, Space:=False, Other:=False Rows(1).Copy w.Rows(k) k = k + 1 ActiveWorkbook.Close False fn = Dir Wend Application.CutCopyMode = False End Sub
I need help looking at text in a cell that has [] around it such as [big red trucks] and copy that text to the end of the cell and replace the "space' between the words and add '+' signs so the result looks like [big red trucks] [big+red+trucks].
example:
This is what the cell looks like before
[big red trucks] cost 5000 in store
This is what the cell needs to look like after
[big red trucks] cost 5000 in store[big+reg+trucks]
there may be additional text after the ']', I need the phrase with the + signs copied to the end of the cell
I want to copy a bunch of data from a text file and paste in into an excel worksheet I have open. I want to paste it at the end but I don't know how large the data range will be each time so I can't select that size range. I have this code so far:
FileToOpen = Application. GetOpenFilename("Text Files (*.txt), *.txt") If FileToOpen <> False Then Workbooks.Open FileToOpen Else Exit Sub End If
Cells.Select Selection.Cut
Windows("myfile.xls").Activate
Range("A1").Select 'THIS IS THE OLD CODE FOR THE FIRST IMPORT ActiveSheet.Paste 'I NEED TO REPLACE THIS WITH THE CODE FOR APPENDING 'OR PASTING AT THE END OF MY RANGE
I receive 24,000 text files once a month that need to be combined into one csv/txt file and/or spreadsheet(tab).
About a year ago I posted a thread on the same topic which received a fantastic response from jindon that worked great
Unfortunately, the format in which the text files are ouput has changed, as has the filename layout. The files are now output with filenames such as:
(lic#, company name, displaying # records found, date, type.txt)
40298827_Windham Professionals Inc _Displaying records 1 through 10 of 100_041813_AGENTS.txt 40298827_Windham Professionals Inc _Displaying records 11 through 20 of 100_041813_AGENTS.txt 40303726_HEARTLAND CREDIT RESTORATION INC _EANF_041913_AGENTS.txt
(files with EANF in the filename have no records inside them and can be skipped)
While the contents of each file look like this: (see attached text file reference)
I would like to combine the contents of the text files while appending the lic#, company name and date from the filenames to each record so the resulting file looks like this:
Is there a formula that will add a number, in sequence, to the end of a text string to avoid duplicates?
I need to generate an ID number for transactions. This ID number is the Account Code-Last Two #s of the Year-Unique 3-Digit Number. So for instance, 5022-14-001 means it is the first transaction from account 5022 in the year 2014.
Column A has the Account Codes. Column B has the date of the transaction in MM/DD/YYYY format. So far the formula I have is:
With ???? being some function or set of nesting functions I need to create the sequential number. It needs to be able to say "Okay, this is the third instance of there being a 5022-14, so we need to stick -003 at the end of this."
Additionally, this "003" needs to be frozen, so if we change how the sheet is sorted and the line item moves around, it will still always be "003".
I want to add (same) text to the end of a whole bunch of cells. What would be the formula or function in Excel 2007 for this? I want to add ":59" to the end of each of these:
I have a text box in a USERFORM .Have the following code associated with the text box. (which perform basic arithmetic.... e.g. If engineers wanna key in 39+137, instead of 176.)
[Code] .....
When I run the userform, the userform’s INITIALIZE procedure populates the textbox with value from a cell in the spreadsheet. When I delete the value completely , it gives error almost instantaneously:
Error is "Could not set the value property. Type Mismatch".
i have a list of about 20,000 phone numbers that I need to edit.
all start 01 123456 01 123457 01 123458 etc
I am trying to create a macro that will change them to
+001123456 +001123457 +001123458 Etc
However, no matter what I try it always comes out as
+001123456 +001123456 +001123456
F2 Copy and paste is going to take me forever, and I am sure that there must be a quicker way to do this.
this is my first time creating macros so am completly lost. I want to keep the text that is in the cell that I am editing, just add the country code and delete the space.
I have a workbook which contains 8 worksheets. I want to able to run a macro that looks for specific words in column A of each worksheet and hides any rows in between the specified words. The following code works except if a worksheet does not contain the specified words. Is there a better way to accomplish this?
Attached is an example of the spreadsheet. The code below works just fine on the tabs highlighted in green, but halts on the tab highlighted in red. The tab highlighted in yellow is showing you the rows I need to hide.
I have a folder with multiple text files. I want to import one of these files to a sheet called data in an existing Excel file. The excel file has references to this data sheet on other sheets which I want to keep. I want to save this excel file with the name the text file has and repeat this for all the text files in the folder.
I found a macro a while back which does the job nicely of importing and saving the Excel file, however all the data in the other sheets gets lost once it is saved. How to keep the data?
Code:
Sub tgr() Const txtFldrPath As String = "FOLDER WITH TEXT FILES" 'Change to folder path containing text files Const xlsFldrPath As String = "FOLDER FOR EXCEL FILES" 'Change to folder path excel files will be saved to Dim CurrentFile As String: CurrentFile = Dir(txtFldrPath & "" & "*.txt") Dim strLine() As String Dim LineIndex As Long
I'm trying to get something like - If a cell contains certain text AND certain text then display set text OR If a cell contain certain text AND certain text then display set text.
For example: Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Petrol = vauxhall corsa petrol Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Deisel = vauxhall corsa Deisel Vauxhall Nova 1 litre Petrol = vauxhall nova petrol
So it the formula is effectively searching for the car type and the fuel type and then returning the relevant set text. So far I'ver only been able to find IF functions criteria to identify one feature of the text.
I'm thinking it's got to be variation on =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol") but there should be something else in there like =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa"&"Petrol",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol")
I know this is wrong but just trying illustrate my thinking. I need it to pick up vauxhall corsa AND petrol. I understand that I would have to stick a lot of IF functions together in a string, but that is fine as long as I can ask it to pick certain text AND certain text within a cell.
