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.
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?
I copied my data and used the paste value function, pasted it onto another excel sheet and then saved as CSV. Ideally, there should be no formatting on the cells. However, column J threw some commas for which i am unable to understand.
All i want to do is put a control in place via VBA to remove all commas from the sheet.
Is there a VBA code that can perform this function?
For example, i have some data :
123,123567
12,778
9822,1
8267,222223
then, i want to permanently remove the comma, so the result :
123
12
9822
8267
Because if i use format cells -> use 1k separator, the data actually still contain the comma (even if the looks is 123, but in the formula bar, it stated 123,123567).
If someone enters "1,000" in a TextBox, Isnumeric(TextBoxEntry) says True
If I convert it to a value with something like x = TextBoxEntry * 0, the 1,000 becomes 1
I would prefer it to be 1000. Just removing commas would do the trick. How to do it.
i have data exported as CSV from in house system, the problem is that data is separted by commas therefore some of cells have split, i need VBA to remove the commas and bring my data back into correct format. Below is a sample of what the data looks like, real data is 5000 rows of data

1. Remove all commas from activeworksheet ( i notice i cant see the commas in excel, but when i open notepad i have commas in empty rows)
2. Remove all characters such as = + # ( ) $ from Column 5
Removing Trailing Commas
I have a list (general ledger) GL codes with trailing commas
Example:
123456789,123456722,123789456,,,,,
When I try to use “replace” and replace the multiple commas with nothing it turns my gl codes into a scientific number (1.23456789123456E+26), but my cell is formatted to text.
The other problem is for numbers with a single trailing comma, it would also remove the commas between the GL codes
Is there a function that removes trailing commas, or commas that are not followed by numbers?
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.
I have a column of contacts. Each contact has data spread out over many rows, most of which are blank. I would like all of the data spread out through the rows to be in one cell, delineated by commas (so I can import into another program).
Concatenating the cells works except that I end up with 20 commas for two strings of info.
Just so you understand I may have this:
Mary red blue yellow purple
Rob blue purple
Trey yellow
and I want it to look like this
Mary red, blue, yellow, purple
Rob blue, purple
Trey yellow
How should I go about this?
We have a spreadsheet of our customer's info, to send to our collection agency; when we export it puts parenthesis around the area code and adds a hyphen in the number.
Also it puts commas in the figures. And I need the slashes gone from the date - is there a simple way to do this?
I tried formatting but it doesn't take out the () or ,

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've set up a filing system which saves sheets/ workbooks based on the value of a cell - Range("B1") Everything works great apart from when ThisFile String length exceeds 31 characters which you may know is the max useable character length for a sheet name - I had no idea! 8-0
Is there a way i can check if string length exceeds 31 characters then, if it does, shorten it to 31 characters?

How to create a code formula to calculate the arc length from a given chord length?
If you know the radius of the major circle.
Say the chord is 50mm and major circle dia is 72mm (radius 36mm)
arc from chord.jpg
My worksheet contains data with the reaction times on a psychological test. Each respondent in the test has 280 rows in my excel sheet.
The 'perfect' length of the row, is from A to M. When an error is made in the test, the length of the row will increase. So the error length can be A to AA.
For me it is important to analyse the error. So I would like to give a perfect row length, the value 1, and an error row length a value 2.
So, in conclusion:
If:
Cell length = A1 - M1? --> Copy A1 B1 C1 (A B Cof that row) to Sheet3, and give D1 in sheet 3 the value 1
Cell length >= A1 - M1? --> Copy A1 B1 C1 (A B C of that row) to Sheet3, and give D1 in sheet 3 the value 2
I have attached a sample file where I want to concatenate data in colums A2:H2 into one column with line breaks. But CHAR(10) function alonwith CONCATENATE is not working. I have formatted the destination cell for wrap text.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to create the user defined function in excel in which i will assign the value to a char and after that i should b able to use it in formula.

for "VV2" i will assign 4
and so on.......then i want to use this to compare both figures like
i will put the formula like if(VV1 < VV2,true,false) result should b true coz VV1 is having value of 3 and VV2 is having 4.

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.
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 B4: 02/11/2008
Cell B7: Empty
Cell B8: Empty
Cell B9: Empty
Cell B10: Empty
Cell B11: Empty
Cell B12: Empty
Cell B13: Empty
Cell B14: Empty
B4 is a date format and I need to copy each single character from B4 so that it goes into the corresponding cells from B7 through to B14. So it looks like this:
Cell B4: 02/11/2008
Cell B7: 0
Cell B8: 2
Cell B9: 1
Cell B10: 1
Cell B11: 2
Cell B12: 0
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?
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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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.
Is there any way to display one-third 1/3 in a Userform label control?

=RIGHT(A1,MIN(500,LEN(A1)))
I would like to apply this formula to VBA and call to existing macro so that this is applied to all the cells in Col. A. How can I do that? Or, is there a better way to do it?
Buttom line, I'd like to see only the last 500 characters per cells in Col. A after I run the macro.
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.
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.
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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a list of 1735 numbers, actually they are numbers and/or alpha-numeric combinations. I need to copy this list of numbers into a report program. The report program requires six digits separated by a semi-colon (no spaces) with leading zeroes, as necessary.
To accomplish this, I format the cells under "Custom" and put in six zeroes. Now, I need to list them with no spaces between the numbers, just a semi colon. I have tried copying as "text only" into Word, and I get the full number, with the leading zeroes but I cannot figure out how to add the semi colons, no spaces, between each number. Can this be done in Excel? Every variation I try, including copy & paste values only, add the semi-colon into the next column and do =B2&C2, the leading zeroes drop off. If it can't be done in Excel, can it be done in Word?
