Character Mark In A Box
May 23, 2008
I've searched for this in the forums but can't find anything. I need to find/replace a character in Excel, it's a question mark in a box and looks like this
I've tried searching for special characters (using the ALT key and number pad) but I can't find anything matching this.
When I save the spreadsheet as a CSV (TAB delimited) this character gets picked up as a TAB, but when I try find replace on the TAB character it doesn't work!
I'm using Excel 2007.

I have got a list of numeric abbreviations, for instance 10739011/21/31/41. What it should really display are the numbers 10739011, 10739021, 10739031 and 10739041 (the first six figures stay the same). All the numbers in my list are 8 figures long. I want to change the list from the list seperated by the backward slash to the complete numbers. I have uploaded an example of the list with backward slash between the numbers. Is there a way that Excel can automatically change these numbers to the full numbers?
Because all the numbers are 8 figures long, I thought the first 6 figures of the 1st number can be copied and those 6 figures pasted before the other two figures after the backslash. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;sorry, pressed OK too quickly. The problem is that there are sometimes 4 numbers in the cell, sometimes 6 and once three. I would like Excel to complete all the numbers in the cell and then move on to the cell underneath it and so on. Also, I would like each number to have it's own cell.

I have to manually enter the code nos. of the hard copy to find the code in the soft copy. After finding the number, I wish to mark it as so that double work should not be done or to find which code's hard copy is not with me.
I am using Find and Replace to find the number and after it is found I have to click the replace tab to enter colour in it.
Is there any auto function to mark as soon as I find the required number instead of clicking the replace tab to save my time.

Need a formula/code that will determine what the corrected part number should be (insert dashes if they are missing) by comparing to other values in the list.
Original A1:A5 = {452, a-bc, 123, 4-52, abc}
Corrected C1:C5 = {4-52, a-bc, 123, 4-52, a-bc}
I can do this using an intermediate working column, but can this be done all in one formula, or via VBA?
My formulaic solution is thus: .....

I am making a rough gantt chart in excel for a project schedule. Japanese at work love excel fro some reason that is why I am trying to do this. I have column headings for days ( 3/3, 3/4, 3/5, etc) and I want to find a way to mark the intersection when a date is input in another row. I tried to do some conditional formatting using symbols, but couldn't get anything to work.
see picture. I want to mark at correct date according to column headings when date is placed in column E or F. This example shows column E with 3/10 so I want to make a value appear at intersection AS and the row 3/10 is on. Would like to get a symbol to appear there if possible.

I have a list of energy consumption records by address. The utility that supplied the data had to manually pull each record one by one from their 'database'. If two individuals shared one account, the record is repeated.
So, I have a 500,000 row table with some records with identical addresses and identical consumption amounts. How would I go about separating the duplicates (to then delete them)?
It's sorted by address then consumption. The logic is...
if the address value in column A repeats and the consumption field in column B also repeats, then...(place a marker in column C so I can sort and delete)

I need to find duplicates subnet information in row F and mark the words "Duplicate"
Then I need to do the same with Row K. I need to find any duplicate subnet masks.
The reason for this is that I merged two orginizations into one spreadsheet and I need to find the duplicates in Company A and Company B's subnet and mask information.

I have a simple spread sheet, as shown below. Each line is on it's own row, and all the info on each line is in the first cell. (A1,A2,A3 etc....) What I require is a macro that will look at the "Code" line, take note of the code and if it finds a duplicate code number, mark the duplicate code with (1)....say up to (5).
In the case below, it would flag the second 07edr code and change it to 07edr(1). If there was a third 07edr code it would mark it 07edr(2) etc.
It needs to look at all the codes as it's possible there will be more then one set of duplicates.
Description = item 1
Code = 07edr
Quantity = 1
Description = item 3
Code = 08geo
Quantity = 2
Description = item 78
Code = 08cpm
Quantity = 1
Description = item 1
Code = 07edr
Quantity = 2
Description = item 39
Code = 16blf
Quantity = 1

I inserted a check mark and tried to us a vertical lookup and post the check mark
All I get is a horseshoe looking character. When I do reference to the cell I get the same symbol. What I trying to do is to place a check mark by the items which have been approved. I know I could do it with an "X" or a color, but top management wants a check symbol. I am using Excel 2007

I am creating a resource and I'd like the users of this resource to be able to click a cell which will then automatically come up with an x or similar symbol (tick?) and then if they click the cell again the x will disappear. Is this possible? I don't want a drop down box where they have to choose what they want, I want it to be an automatic action when the cell is clicked because there will be many cells that I will need to do this.

When comparing collumns to find out if the values are the same or different I use this formula:
=IF((A2)=(B2);"same";"different")In some cases I see the results are not OK. I see the same values but the result states "different". This might be caused by spaces around the value that does not exist in the other cell I think.
File is attached, the green marking show what I expect to see, the yellow marking shows what puzzles me.

look at the attached file. This might be the perfect job for a macro. I am trying to find the SKU's from sheet 1 in sheet 2 and subsequently mark the matching SKUs in sheet 2. Ideally, I would like the SKU's that could not be found to be set to Quantity "0"
