I have a large spreadsheet with names (i.e. Smith, John) and would like to capitalize and bold the first word of a range of cells (i.e. SMITH, John). Been searching for hours and all that I can find has to do with capitalizing the first letter, not the first word.
View 5 RepliesI need to capitalize only the very first word of each sentence in a paragraph.
How can I do this?
I need to count how many times the word Test is in the range B4:H9 with
Range N2 = Test the formula below works if Test is only in the cell once.
=COUNTIF($B$4:$H$9,"*" & N2 & "*")
But I have data in cells like below, this is all in one cell, so how would I have it count all the times test is in the range when some cells have test 2 or more times in a single cell?
5
Test
8am-2pm
Test
5pm-10pm

Something from this:
"Capital first letter only. After Period Should be capitalized only The First Letter"
to this:
"Capital first letter only. After period should be capitalized only the first letter"
I have a routine where I and others enter employee names. It takes whatever case is inputted, and formats it to Capitialize the first name, Middle Initital, and Lastname. However, my routine is flawed slightly and I was wondering if there was a way to fix it.
The flaw is in the names such as McSomething, or MacDonald, McMasters.. the routine will Capitalize the first and last names, put a comma and even put a period if there is a middle initial (or not if there is no middle initial), but I can't figure out how to identify if its a Mc or a Mac or any other of those surnames. The routine will force it to Mcsomething or Macdonald ... so.. any ideas ?? It won't capitalize (in this case) the S in Mcsomething.

I generated a large spreadsheet and now for legal reasons all the data has to be in Upper case. Is there a quick way to convert all the text.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI would like a user to be able to enter text into a cell in any case and have it be displayed in all capital letters (or as a "Proper" capitalization). Seems strange that >FORMAT doesn't seem to have a "case" selection.
Past threads show VB code to do this, but I don't want the user to have to click a button to change case. Could the VB code run automatically after the user hits >enter, or tab, or an ->? Is there a way to >FORMAT a cell to do this change? I know the "Upper" & "Proper" functions but it would be very clumsy to have the user enter data in cell A1 just to be displayed in capitals in cell A2.
Example: When user types "lax" in cell A1, I would like "LAX" to be displayed in cell A1.
Is it possible to export Excel cell contents to Word fields in a protected Word document? For example...
What code would be needed to tell Excel to open up, copy and export the contents of A2 in the active sheet of a workbook to "Field 2" in a Word document named "Report 01" and then put the contents of B2 to "Field 2" etc?
Do both applications have to be opened up at the same time or is Excel able to open up Word on its own? Will the macro be able to....
1. Automatically open up the correct Word document?
2. Look ONLY in a certain folder for the "Report 01" Word document?
or
Bring up a "selection" box that allows you to select the document you wish Excel to export it's data to?
3. Close and save the Word Document without any user intervention?
I have a bunch of cells in column b that have products.
Column B
Dell 24" lcd
vaio sony laptop
8.0 mpxl kodak camera
photoepsonprinter
Basically in Column A I want a formula that'll say.
If the word "dell" is somewhere in cell b1, then put the word "Dell" in cell a1.
If the word "sony" is somewhere in cell b1, then put the word "sony" in cell a1.
And then so on and so forth down through column A. The brand names are potentially endless, so is there a easy way to on like a seperate sheet make a list of brand names and have it pull from there?
Originally I made a if function that said if the brand name was contained in the cell then output the brand name, but that caps at 7 for the amount of brands i can use....
I have an excel program that is supposed to count word instances in a word document. I can't seem to find the right declaration for a word document.
For example to declare a workbook in excel its
Dim wb As Work Book
I've tried
Dim doc As Word.Document
'or
Dim doc As Word.Application
as shown in some of the forum posts, but an error user-type not defined keeps displaying.
I've managed to get hold of the following code that will copy the values from a range and paste them to a Word document, what I need to do if possible is only copy the rows that have data in column A.
Additionally, the code should only copy across to column R - so to summarise, copy ALL columns from A to R and only if A has data in it, (starting at A2).
Code:
Option Explicit
Sub Data2Word()
'Remember: this code requires a referece to the Word object model
'dimension some local variables

I use this formula to look for a word in this range. Can I add to this formula to do the same thing but in a second range, new word. OR can I add a second formula behind this one?
Code:
=ISNUMBER(MATCH("CPM",'OBS5'!C7:C26,0))
Can I add the range of D7:D26 and look for GFT with the same formula?
This does not seem to be working and I do not know why.
If Range("T3:T999").Value = "Duplicate" Then
MsgBox "It did work"
Else
MsgBox "What happened??"
End If
I have a spreadsheet I am working on which lists a bunch of equipment. In column A I have a list of the equipment, and in column B I have a list either saying the equipment is Free or the name of who is borrowing it.
I would like to know how to calculate the total amount of 'Free' values in Column B and display the number of occurances in a cell somewhere so I anyone who opens the document can see that there are 5 Items free, and hopefully it auto-calculates each time a value is changed in Column B from Free to who ever is borrowing that item.
I have a text string in a cell. it is comprised of a series of numbers and text. i would like to " cut" the first part of the string starting from the first space and paste in the cell to the left. For example.
range("b11") has the following: "This is my example"
I would like to perform the following:
range ("A11") would equal "This"
Range ("b11") would equal "is my example"
(note the space has been completly removed as well)
I try to search for only one word/phrase in range of cells. I would like formula to return the cell value that contains work/phrase I asked to look for.
For example: A1 contains "Apple", C1:3 contain "Cherry juice", "Apple pie", "Orange bonbon". I want D1 to check which cell from range C1:3 contains word/phrase from A1 and show it to me - "Apple pie".
I have an Excel Worksheet with 80,000 lines on it. The Columns are arranged thus:

Col D
Col E
Col F

I am looking for an Excel Formula that will look up Australia & Mobile and then return the highest value of the range of cells it finds that meets that criteria and enters that value in the Rate column next to mobile (F3).
Then I just want a variant of the same formula that will look up Australia but exclude Mobile and then return the highest value of the range of cells it finds that meets that criteria and enters that value in the Rate column next to Not mobile (F4).
I have a key-word, and I need to search a 90,000 words in a range where i should find several words that have 2, 3 or 4 letters of the first letter of the key-word, then find several words that have 2, 3 or 4 letters of the second letter of the key-word,
I am having a hard time creating a code that would search the exact string in a cell. See sample scenario below.
1. I have a string "hello" to be searched.
2. I will search the whole string in each cell in a previously declared range.
3. If in a cell i found "kdhlsk hellodsiewjls", although "hello" string is there,
the code should still return 0.
4. But if in a cell, i found "kjdsfel ljsdlkue hello luoeww", then the code should return 1.
I have already created a code, but it will always return 1 in step#3.
I am attempting an If Or formula and keep retuning a #Value error, I can't for the life of me figure out why.
This is the formula that I have written.
=IF(OR(H44,H45,H46,H47,H48)="Other:","True","False")
Cells H44,I44,J44 have been merged into one cell (H44), and the same for 45,46,47,and 48 - Could this affect the Formula?
I want to count if cells in a specified range =yes then divide the range to get a total percentage of yes cells. I have a data validation list set up with the values: yes, no, n/a. I don't want the total percentage to change when using n/a.

I am new to VBA and have tried to develop the code for finding a specific stock symbol (Column A) from over 4200 symbols from a downloaded csv file, copy the data in in its (specific symbol's) row (in the next 5 columns B to F) to the 3rd blank row in the master workbook (data arranged from Bottom to Top). In the Master workbook each stock symbol has a worksheet with its symbol as the tab e.g. BHP.AX is the tab or sheetname for BHP stock in the Australian Stock Exchange. The downloaded file comes from a subscribed site EODData which provides daily OHLCV (Open/High/Low/Close/Volume) data against each symbol.
My attempt is shown below and it is very primitive. It does not work! I wish to run it from the Master workbook (name:-0PortfolioASXMultipleIB.xlsm) and not from Csv Data file.

Sub Macro0CopyFromCSV()
'Insert a blank row and format it in Master workbook

I use an excel workbook that contains around 20-30 output tables/ranges and i would to have a macro which will enable me to open a specific word document and paste these tables/ranges from excel into the word document. I am unsure as to how to get excel and word to "talk to each other"???
To make things more difficult i would like to be able to set the paste location in the word document, and ideally i would the copy and paste function to be a normal copy and paste and not a paste special as the tables/rnage in excel have already been formatted correctly and column widths adjusted to fit the margin of the word document.
Currently I select the range in excel, switch to word and paste then continue until all tables/ranges are pasted. Not difficult but as certain calculations change these tables/ranges need to be re-copied and pasted to word which gets frustrating.
