Case Sensitive Sorting
Jun 8, 2009
I have been battling with excel for weeks now trying to get some data to display the way I want it to.
The plan is to enter (into individual cells) some letters, some lower case, some upper case ie, A A a A a C d. Some of these will be displayed together in another cell like this: AAaA, AaCd. My problem is that I want them all to be displayed Upper case letters first, lower case second like this: AAAa, ACad. No amount of my inexperienced fumbling with excel's tools has worked so far.
I am playing around with a table for genetics so if my results in a cell are aAbBCcdD, I need it to display: AaBbCcDd. Is it possible?

I have a spreadsheet which I use to count the occurrences of a value against a range. Basically if the value is uppercase I count as 1 and for lowercase 0.5
This spreadsheet is used as a holiday chart and I have previously used the formula below however, for some reason it no longer works. Not even if I change the lookup value.
The exact function takes a single cell as its value but I have a spreadsheet which allows a range. Although I cannot change it….
=SUM(IF(EXACT(B1:AF99, "LB"),1))+SUM(IF(EXACT(B1:AF99, "lb"),0.5))

in making this macro non case-sensitive. So when a user searches a company name in the worksheet they do not require to type in the company name exactly as it appears.
For example; when searching Microsoft they can type "microsoft" and the macro would take the user to Microsoft.
I would also like to know if it is possible to add a feature that keeps the search dialogue open so the user can search the next possible match. If the user was to type in "mirco" and the search would show the user any company name with the word micro in it.

I have recently taken on the task of creating a large protected program (without macros) that automatically updates a PowerPoint presentation. I created corresponding workbooks for each sheet in the original (master) workbook. The corresponding workbooks are then used to paste object into the power point presentation. The only problem is it will not update format (text color) changes into the corresponding workbook. I have solved half the problem with conditional formatting, but I want to conditionally format the color of text to two different colors blue if Aa and Red if all CAPS. how to differentiate between Standard word and All CAPS in the conditional formatting.

I need a macro that will format a a column based on content that is case sensitive. Example, a cell that contains a capital 'P' will be shaded gray with red text where a cell that contains a lower case 'p' will not change format.

I've 2 lists that contain similar info but 1 of the lists holds info I need to join.
I've a unique case sensitive id that I'd like to use to join the lists.
I usually use VLOOKUP but it is case insensitive and I cannot understand how to make it case sensitive.
The 2 lists are in 2 separate worksheets as they each hold a lot of data.

Suppose I have some data in a column like below
Blue
Red
Green
green
red
RED
BLUE
I need a macro or excel formula so that it will remove duplicate products- case sensitive(removing all duplicate prod using using excel,that i know.) i.e. it should not consider Blue BLUE as duplicate. only consider Blue Blue as duplicate.
So the macro should work same as data -> remove duplicate function already exists in excel, except it will be case sensitive..

I am using the this formula to look up data using 0 to show not found. VLOOKUP is acting case sensitive. The Master Array data is in caps and the input is in lower case. There are no spurious spaces. Here are the results:
Code Name
0 River Branch Foundation = not found
X RIVER BRANCH FOUNDATION = found - in array as caps
The formula:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B2,'[Master Array - 2012.xlsx]Master Array'!$A$2:$B$3053,2,FALSE)),0,VLOOKUP(B2,'[Master Array - 2012.xlsx]Master Array'!$A$2:$B$3054,2,FALSE))

I'm looking for a way of keeping case sensitive data in a range of cells, before using Data Consolidate, which when merged afterwards, Consolidate removes the case sensitivity and combines the quantities into one.
Check out this simple table as an example >
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
1
TEXT
QTY
TEXT
QTY
TEXT
QTY
TEXT
QTY
2
and
3
and
2
and
10
and
5
[Code] .........
Cells A1-B7 and C1-D7 are two sets of original data, before consolidation.
Cells E1-F4 are the result of applying a Data Consolidate operation to the A1-B7 and C1-D7 ranges - note how the merged result ignores the case sensitive condition in the original ranges.
Cells G1-H7 is the post-consolidation result that I'm looking for, where the original text case is maintained.

I've got a pretty intense macro already written, a lot of Select Case components. At the end, if nothing matches I'd like to just copy the cell above to the cell below. However, there is a range of about 400 cells in length, so I'd need some sort of wildcard for range.
Rows("2:2").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
Dim Cell As Variant
For Each Cell In Range("A1:OL1")
Select Case Cell.Value
Case "Eng1"
Cell.Offset(1, 0).Value = "Engine One"
tons more in the middle here
Case Else
Cell.Offset(1, 0).Value = "N/A"
Rather then returning "N/A", how could I reference the cell above and just copy it instead?

-I have two columns
-In column "A" are listed values in black and red font color
-I need a SUM of values inside of column "B" where in the same row in column "A" value is written in red color.
Example:
AB15,00060,0000Result:35,00070,000068,000025,000050,00002,00008,00006,000018,0000
How to make this automatically at larger tables?

I had to crash Excel because it had got itself into a pickle - run out of memory or something anyway it was chasing itself up it's own backside.
I rebooted to restore memory and ever since then my Context sensitive auto complete on VB statements, subroutines and functions has vanished and I can't figure out how to get it back.
How to restore this as I have some seriously complicated routines that are MUCH slower to code if I don't have this option.

When I use a simple formula such as:
=upper(a1)
that will obviously change whatever is in a1 to Upper Case - but it will put it in the cell that holds the formula.
What I want to know is:
Is there any way I can format the cell to run the formula when the information has been pasted into the spreadsheet

I have a long list of data (around 10,000 rows) with one column Client Sensitive (Column A see below) that needs to be changed before using in a pivot so the client won't see this data.
At the moment I'm using a formula but happy to use VBA for this as the rest of the report updates with VBA.
The formula that works but takes far too long is
=IF(COUNTIF($A$1:$A2,$A2)>1,VLOOKUP($A2,$A:$R,18,FALSE),MAX($R$1:$R1)+1)
Where column A is the sensitve data (and the unique identifier) and column R is the column the formula is entered.
The below is what I want, the column R I now use in a pivot to get the results I want then I can hide that column and delete Column A so no Client Sensitve data is with the spreadsheet.
However as I've said it takes far too long to calculate down 10,000 rows..
Column A
Column R
A12345

What I want is to make date formatted cells change color based on a parameter related to the date. For example, turn to red 7 days before the date in the field, and back to green when the date has passed, or when it is changed (updated).
It's basicaly a payment reminder, so if this is not exactly possible, are there any other ways to do it? Maybe the cell turns red on a predetermined date each month, and back to green on another date?

For the following code, I'm getting the " Case without Select Case" error (On Case 3 to 5...assuming more are wrong too, but debug can't get there yet). I thought I had it right, obviously don't. Can anyone spot how my code is wrong? ....

I'm trying to compare two range values within a macro to see if they match...if they do/don't I capture and write some other data.
One list is lowercase, while the other list is UPPERCASE.
My current macro needs them to be in the same case because I'm using the following to compare:
If VPNID.Value = BuildHRName Then
How can I change the format of one of the lists to UPPERCASE or lowercase so that I am comparing apples to apples?

if there's any way for vba to detect if each individual character in a string is in caps, and if so, convert to lower case, and if it's in lower case, convert to capitalized
The text will vary in length and content... so he wants to see how we can change:
"This Is Strange" to "tHIS iS sTRANGE"
"THIS IS STRANGE" to "this is strange"
"this is strange" to "THIS IS STRANGE"

I have 14 Case instead of multiple IF's
one by one 52 cells will be selected and will act on the 14 Case
Can I name the 14 Case as one and not have to end up with a mile long code?
Example:
Select Case Grade
Case Is >= 90
LetterGrade = "A"
Case Is >= 80
LetterGrade = "B"
Case Is >= 70
LetterGrade = "C"
Case Is >= 60
LetterGrade = "D"
etc...etc...
Case Else
LetterGrade = "Sorry"
End Select
would become:
Select Case test
End Select

I know the concept of Case statements sounds simple, but trying to write it in my scenario seems a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. I have three columns with an unspecified number of rows (which are generated from another macro). Lets say those colums are C, D, E, and they should be strings because my criteria are based on the number of digits contained in each cell. I want to add a certain number of periods to a given cell, then add that string onto two other cell strings, and form one combined string in a separate cell.
Basically I want to sort of Concatenate the cells into a given cell in column F for each row, but there are many conditions. If the cells in column C contain 3 digits, I want to add one period "." onto the original string. If it has 4 digits, then I add nothing, and then, add that cell to the string in cell D, and then Cell E. [It is like the function Concatenate(C1&".",D1&"..",E1)]. Cells in Column D have 6 criteria, and cells in Column E have zero criteria.
And I need this to loop down until it reaches an empty row or cells.

Is there a way to do multiple case selects. For example if I have A3=2012 and A4=COMPANY NAME do this. I don't want to use if and for this because I have several company names in this list and think case would be easier. So far I have the following attached code but this pastespecial should only occur if the value of A3=2012 as well.
Code:
Select Case Cells(i, 1).Value
Case "COMPANY NAME"
Range(Range("B" & i), Range("E" & i)).Copy
Sheets("Abbott Label").Select
Range("b45").PasteSpecial

I have the following:
Column A---------Column G
EACH-------------(Formula = (B1*C1)*.4536
CASE-------------(Formula = (B1*C1)*.4536
SHTB-------------(Formula = (B1*C1*D1)
SHTD-------------(Formula = (B1*C1*D1)
MFG--------------(Formula = B1*C1)
NO---------------(Formula = B1*C1)
I need a macro that when the worksheet is open if the text in Column A is as presented in the sample then the Mathmatical calculations will be performed in Column G. Currently I use a Do While Loop which works (takes a long time), but I know there must be a faster more efficient way.
