CHAR(10) Linefeed / CHAR(13) CarriageReturn Displays Square

Jan 8, 2008

I have a cell that is acutally a concatination of several other cells. The formula is something like this....

=A1 & B1 & A1 & C1 & A1 & D1 & A1

Cell A1 contains the formula =char(13). This forces a line break between each data element.

My problem is that on some peoples machines the cell displays with a square at the end. I'm not sure why it does this only on some machines. Is there a better way to do this or is there a way to suppress the square?

Validate A String Char-by-char

Mar 6, 2009

I'm trying to validate a string that can have only dots and numbers, but there can't be two dots in a row. String has to begin with a number and end to a dot

So these are ok
1.1.1.1.1.1.
and
2.452443.1.5.21.5.42131.

but
1..1.
and
1.1.t.
and
.1.1.
and
1.1
are not ok.

Password Char For An Input Box

May 11, 2007

Is it possible to set a PasswordChar for an InputBox?

Basically, I have an input box asking for an admin password to make changes, and I'd like to make it so onlookers wouldnt be able to see the password. Any suggestions on how to do this?

I could make another userform and have the textbox have a PasswordChar, but I'd rather not.

Pulling Out 1/2 Char Strings Into Other Columns

Mar 2, 2009

I'm new to this, and trying to get a spreadsheet organised for my nba fantasy team. To save time, (and me having to enter the positions of 300ish people individually) I'm trying to pull out their positions into seperate colums.

The data I am trying to pull is from these:

Jarrett Jack, Ind PG
Gerald Wallace, Cha SF, PF

=IF(FIND("PG",$B2),"PG","")

That is the formula I am trying to use, it finds the PG for some, but when it doesn't it gives me this "#VALUE!" in the cells, instead of a blank as I have tried to input.

Now, there are 5 combinations that I am trying to pull out: PG, SG, SF, PF and C.

There are multiple combinations that need to be pulled out, and placed into my 3 cells allocated (EG - 1 for Pg, 1 for SG, 1 for SF).

I have also found a flaw that takes the C from Cha (being the team) instead of from the position. Can I search for a individual C? I've tried to google these things, but I can't find an answer.

Cell B7: 0
Cell B8: 2
Cell B9: 1
Cell B10: 1
Cell B11: 2

Cell B13: 0
Cell B14: 8

I am not sure how to find the position of a character and put it into another cell, is anyone able to help me with this?

Char Length And Remove Commas

Dec 1, 2009

is there a way to automate =left(b1,40) and remove commas from the text?

text in the cell would be something like a name for instance john doe, LLC but some names are to long so was using the =left to reduce it to 40 characters and using find/replace for the commas replacing it with a space.

Cell Visible Char Limit

Mar 16, 2007

how I could split a cell's contents into two cells when it contains more than 1024 chars? The code would need to be clever enough to split the data after the nearest full stop before the 1024 char limit.

Recursive Division Macro Mod Needed For Char Type

Nov 11, 2008

I need a slight mod to the below code which works perfectly otherwise. What it does is it divides whatever is in column K by 30 and puts in its relative cell in column M( There a bunch of mini tables below each other with blank rows in between).

The thing is sometimes there are characters in column K like "N/A" for instance and the macro crashes since its only designed to take into account numerical and blank cells in column K.

Find Unknown Char Contained In A String And Store It In Variable

Jun 4, 2013

I need to store a known index, unknown value in a variable so I can increase the value and use it in a database. It is used as a version number for a part and the versions go like: "00" -> "AA" -> "AB" -> .... -> "AZ" -> "BA"... etc.

VB:
If tool.Worksheets("TRB Database").Cells(A, "R").Value <>
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Design Calculator, Q").Cells(7, "C").Value Or
tool.Worksheets("TRB Database").Cells(A, "AA").Value <>
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Design Calculator, Q").Cells(5, "K").Value Or tool.Worksheets("TRB Database")

[Code] ....

That is a part of the increase and when I try to increase "AA" by 1 it goes to "B" and not "AB".

VB: tool.Worksheets("TRB Database").Cells(row1, "D").Value = Chr(Asc(tool.Worksheets("TRB Database").Cells(A, "D").Value) + 1)

This is where I increase the value.

Circumventing Silly 255 Char Limit When Copying Entire Sheet

Aug 1, 2007

I am having mucho problems because of Excel's 255 character limit when copying an entire spreadsheet to a new workbook.

In a nutshell, I copy a "data entry" page onto a “report” page within a workbook. The entire “report” page is then copied and moved into a new workbook. That allows me to have a stand alone, exported file outside of my main data entry tool. When you copy an entire page to a new workbook, Excel imposes a 255 character limit. Thus, I see truncated responses on the exported spreadsheet only.

CHAR(255) Not Picking Up The Letter "Y"

Dec 17, 2008

This is really annoying, my formula is not picking up words starting with the letter "Y" it will pick "Y" up on its own but not if you start a word with that letter, see my attachment and change the word "Alpha" in column A to "Yoda" or something begining with "Y" and you will see what i mean.

Finding Whether A Number Is A Square, Or Whether Square Root Is Integer

Aug 19, 2009

I need a formula to tell me whether a number is a square number, or I can do it so to see if the square root of a number is an interger. So far Iv been doing

A1 = ć2
A2 = AND(RIGHT(A1,1)=INT(A1))

True or false outcome is fine, and it has been working fine on some examples, but the problem comes when I have ć49, as it is 2 digits long. I've seen a formula similar to find the root symbol, and look at all the numbers upto this point (maybe FIND).

Punnet Square

Aug 15, 2006

I am doing a cross between two parents, whose possible genotypes are AA, BB, or AB.
I want to use if clauses to look at the parent genotypes, (paternal is listed in column E and maternal is listed in column F) and then give me the possible recombinant genotypes in column G. there are 9 possible combinations (recombinants in parenthesis)

AA x AA (AA)
BB x BB (BB)
AA x AB (AA, AB)
AB x AA (AA, AB)
BB x AB (BB, AB)
AB x BB (BB, AB)
AB x AB (AA, AB, BB)
AA x BB (AB)
BB x AA (AB)

I tried using if clauses, but i don't think i can nest more than 7 cases, and I have 9 different combos.

Index - All Up All Square Feet

Mar 13, 2014

I have 6 rows A1-A6(sheetsize), they can be 1 of 8 numbers. (16,14,12,10, 5/8, 1/2, 3/8, 3/16) these are all metal gauges. The cell next to them B1-B6(sheetgauge) has a number that refers to how much sq ft each of these sheet metal sizes has. I would like a cell below A30 to add up all the sq ft in B1-B6 if it is 16 gauge. Then A31 will add up all the 14 gauge, etc.

How is this possible without having a huge formula.

Here is my standard formula, but it wont add the B cells together if more than one of the same sheet sizes.

=index(sheetsize,match(A31,sheetgauge,0))

Use Of Square Brackets In Vba 2003

Jan 8, 2010

My code works great on my computer but when I bring it to another computer it gives me errors. I think it has to do with my use of square brackets to reference cells. the error that comes up is

compile error:
can't find project or library

What I'm doin here is going to my template sheet then getting the info from different cells and then later using it somewhere else. in place of using range and selecting cell I am using square brackets to select a cell. it worked fine on my computer and was a lot less writing, here is a small part of my code

Address Separated By TWO Square Characters

Feb 15, 2009

An address is separated by the square characters, and usually I would use Text to columns>Delimited>Other>Alt+0010 to separate the lines. When I get to the Delimited screen where you check Other and enter Alt+0010, the keyboard just makes beeping noises and the text preview only shows the part of the address prior to the soft return, as if there is no char(10) delimitation.

Extract Numbers For Square Footage Calculation

Jul 14, 2009

I'm a new member to the forum and have a question about extracting numbers from a string for a square footage calculation. I am trying to extract the two numbers of varying length on either side of an "x" within an alphanumeric string. As you can see from below, the only constant is that each string will contain an "x" (assume there will be no other "x"'s in the string). I am trying to achieve the following:

A1 = 36.5 x 112 --> B1 = 36.5, C1 = 112
A2 = 36.5x112 --> B2 = 36.5, C2 = 112
A3 = 36.5' x112 --> B3 = 36.5, C3 = 112
A4= 36.5'x112.5' --> B4 = 36.5, C4 = 112.5
A5= abc123 36 x 112.5' --> B5 = 36, C5 = 112.5

If there is a non-VBA code fix, that would be preferable (mix of MID,FIND,MATCH functions...?), but I am okay with some basic VBA.

Formula For Calculating Largest Square To Fit In A Quadrilateral

I know this ain't going to be easy if at all do-able, but would anyone know if there can be a formula/s made to calculate the largest size "square" shape (e.g. all 4 corners at 90 deg.) that would fit in to a known size Quadrilateral?

Value A,B,C,D and Z are all known values as are the diagonal lengths between corners

I failed dismally in Geometry at High school, but how was I to know that 35 yrs later I would need to know this stuff!!

Please see diagram for an idea of what I'm trying to achieve.

With, some; other, text

I want the macro to remove the brackets and everything within it for all marked cells. (I do not want to use search and replace function since I got a lot of these data and needs to repeat this procedure).
