Check Selection For Space After X Characters

Jan 25, 2008

I want to write a macro that will check every selected cell. It should detect if there is a space after the fourth character. If there is a space, go to the next selected cell. If there is no space, add a space and go to the next selected cell.

Remove Front Zeros & Add Space Before Last 2 Characters

Jun 13, 2007

I want to remove the front zero(s) from the front and put a space before the last two letters for the following column of data in Excel:

0001MG
0020MG
0100MG
1000MG

Final result will have this format and the data are right aligned.
1 MG
20 MG
100 MG
1000 MG

The numbers can vary (e.g. 0150MG, 0025MG,etc.) but the arrangement is always the same: four figures for the first 4 characters and two letters for the last two characters.
The format of the cells containing the data is: “General”

My table has 7 columns and these data are in the 5th column in a worksheet called “ProductSummary”. The number of rows for the records can vary from 10 to over a couple of hundred.

How can I use VBA to: 1) automatically select the table range in that worksheet and reformat all the data in the 5th column.

So now if I re-open it, I want cell A1 to remove the added blank space and revert to be "Hello there". This take turns to change back and forward.

Check A Column For Certain Characters

Feb 6, 2010

I have a column which cells are populated with codes like

BGW
3UG
WWU
1BR
UUBRG
WUBRG
7UUGGRRR

and so on. As you could see, we'll always have a number from 1 to 20 (or no number at all) followed by those letters (which can be only W,U,B,R or G). I'd like to know if there is a function to count the # of times a particular character occurs in a colum. In the above example, the "U" character appears 8 times. This would be nice to automate part of the filling process.

Just a little difference: since numbers always come before the letters, I need to treat a number sequence as a single value: 12GWW should not be seen as 1 then 2, but "twelve", like it was a single character. So, if I have this column...

URR
12WBBB
6UBG
12R
12WG

...then "12" appears 3 times. Nevertheless, B appears four times (3 on line 2 and 1 on line 3.)

Formula To Check Last 3 Characters?

Feb 12, 2014

I need to come up with a formula to verify that the last 3 characters of a text string match the 3 characters in the adjacent cell. So I am comparing in the example below Column B to Column A.

Ex:
A1 010 B1 3.010
A2 010 B2 1A.010

My spreadsheet is very large and I need to get this done without manually having to look at each.

If character or letter "A", or "B", and so on (until "J") is found both in Column A and Column B in a given row, then it is TRUE.

If no character or letter (from A to J) matches in both columns, then FALSE.

**Numbers are irrelevant.

Check If 1st X Characters Are Numeric

Aug 10, 2007

In my column of text strings, I have a multiple format of strings make-up. Below is just one of them I have to check that the first 6 are digits from 0 to 9, and it is followed by a hypen. If condition is true, the first 6 digits is the output (ie. 345678).

345678-S

=IF(ISNUMBER(--(MID(A1, FIND("-",A1)-1,1))--(MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)-2,1))--(MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)-3,1))--(MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)-4,1))--(MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)-5,1))--(MID(A1,FIND("-",A1)-6,1))),LEFT(A1,FIND("-",A1)-1))

However, if I were to continue doing this for other strings, I would soon run out of characters limit that is allowed in a cell. I wonder whether a formulae such as below is valid? Any suggestion or help for a shorter formula is very much appreciated.

=IF(ISNUMBER(--(LEFT(A1,1+1+1+1+1+1))),LEFT(A1,6))

Check Cell Upon Selection Allowing For Filtered Data

Nov 28, 2007

I have a database of names and titles (acutally: #, last name, full name, title, meeting) and at this point I have a column using the following code.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A5:A355")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A5:A355").Cells.Clear
Target.Font.Name = "Marlett"
If Target = vbNullString Then
Target = "a"
Else
Target = vbNullString
End If
End If
End Sub

everything works like I want, except when I use the auto filter, the "a" won't be cleared from cells that are hidden. I need to make sure only one "a" is populated in this column as that's what I'm using with the vlookup function to key the data for my Character Generator.

Maybe I'm not using the best code, I'm new to this and just cobbled together code from a few different places.

Some quick background to what I'm doing, but you may not need it to help. I'm trying to use Excel to populate some cells that will tell our Chyron Character Generator (for those that don't know what that is, it's the device that puts graphics on screen during news programs, etc...) what to put up for lower third titles (and more) for our meetings we cover.
