Automatically Insert Space In A String

Dec 18, 2008

I have a column called "Unit Size," which contains data such as 200 g, 0.32 g, 15 mL, 2 mg.

I need a macro to automatically insert a space between the numbers and the letters, for example, if someone types 10g it automatically converts it to 10 g.

The strings may be of different lengths, i.e. contain different numbers of decimal places or signficant figures.

I have been working on different formulas to return the text string between the first and last space and have been unsuccessful. Is this possible?

Desired results: D60

I've got a list of postcodes in one column and some of the postcodes do not have the correct amount of spaces between the characters.

Insert A Space In A Postcode

Jan 5, 2010

I'm trying to find a formula that will put a space in the correct place in a British postcode.

I have a column I need to sort this way. Some of the postcodes already have the correct space and others don't.

British postcodes can be in several formats......

n = a letter
1 = a number

n11 1nn
n1 1nn
n1 1n
n1n 1n
n1n 1nn
n11n 1n
n11n 1nn
nn1 1nn
nn1 1n
nn11 1nn
nn11 1n

On a side note I need to make all the text uppercase. In the column some already have uppercase and others don't.

Trim String At First Space?

Mar 11, 2014

I have some code that grabs the name of a staff member. The format is:

Code:
Result = Trim(Sess0.Screen.GetString(8, 33, 10))
.Cells(r, 15).Value = Result

How do you trim the string before the first space so the value in Result would be just the last name (DOE)?

Finding The Last Space In A String

Nov 17, 2006

there is AT() which finds the first occurrence of a string searching from the left like FIND() and SEARCH(), and RAT() which finds the first occurrence searching from the right-to-left.

A single column with names:
John Doe
Jane Marie Smith
Dr. Alex R. Jones
Bill

I need two columns that would look like:
John.................Doe
Jane Marie........Smith
Dr. Alex R.........Jones
Bill

Macro To Separate String If Space Between

Jan 29, 2009

On sheet one, in the column column C I have cells which have characters separated by a space character (For example cell C3 looks like this: "L C"; cell C12 looks like this: "S BF54FR"). There are only a few cells which have more than three characters. The characters are separated by a space character. I would like the macro to do the following: take out each on of the character in put in the same row next column. (For example if in column C has the value: "L C" then in the same row column D should have the value "L" and column E should have the value "C". Or if column C was "S BF54FR" then column D should have the value "S" and column E "BF54FR".

Covert Space Delimited String To Array

Apr 24, 2008

I have two columns of data, one for Position, and one for description.

The positions are concatenated and separated by spaces. E.g. C1 C2 C3 for each Description. I need to create a separate row for each position

So I need to convert:

Pos Decscription
C1 C2 C3 Cap 100n 10% X7R 0805

to:

Pos Decscription
C1 Cap 100n 10% X7R 0805
C2 Cap 100n 10% X7R 0805
C3 Cap 100n 10% X7R 0805

Or in other words split a space delimited string into an array, so that I can loop through the array, and add new rows

Splitting Numbers Separated By A Space Automatically?

Jul 27, 2009

i have a list of customer codes each seperated by a space. In the column next to them i have a percentage. (see attached file before tab). I would like to be able to split the cell of customer codes and transpose them so that there is one cell per customer code with the appropriate % applied (please see attached file after example tab).

At the minute a manual process is completed of sorting in length order, using the text to column function then copy paste and transpose, then copy the % in. Its quite manual process, is there an easier way?

VBA To Search String And Insert Row If String Not Found

Apr 11, 2013

I have a spreadsheet which has "Employee: [agent 1 name]" in column A and it may or may not have the word "Break" in the same column before it mentions "Employee: [agent 2 name]". The amount of data between agent 1 and agent 2 varies and am needing code which will insert a row above "Employee: [agent 2 name]" if "Break" is not found, and add the word "Break" in column A on the inserted row. I would need this to loop through the spreadsheet until all 100+ agents have been searched.

I'm also needing this done for the word "Meeting" and would insert a row 2 rows above the next agent.

Automatically Insert Row

Nov 5, 2009

problem with Excel and I have no idea how to solve it. Hmm, how do I explain this? Someone is giving me data pulled from a server in an Excel format. I have a column that has a series of entries.

For example:

Blank
Entry 1
Entry 2
Entry 3
Entry 4
Entry 5

However, sometimes there's an entry or two missing. So it'll look like this:

Blank
Entry 1
Entry 2
Entry 4
Entry 5

Is there anyway to tell Excel to say "Hey there's an entry missing here," and have it insert a row with the missing entry value? I do not work in Excel ever but people around here do, in case someone has some advice. I already asked the guy if he could just server me the data formatted correctly, and -- of course -- he can't/won't.
