Trim And Clean Function But Formula Doesn't Work?
Jan 31, 2014 I'm coping and pasting data (html) into a worksheet. When I try to format some of the columns as accounting$, number, ect. They won't format. It looks as if there are spaces before and after the data. So I tried the trim and clean function but it doesn't work, so I guess the blank "spaces" are not really spaces.
It gets better...
When I do the same exact copy and paste (as html) on another persons computer, they are able to format just fine, and the "spaces" are removed automatically.
Why is this working on one computer but not the other? Is it a setting that my computer has enabled or disabled? If so, what is it?
'trim' Or 'clean' Spaces
Feb 5, 2010On a regular basis I have to upload cost to our order system. These cost are sent to me by the suppliers, and the part numbers have to match exactly, (from the excel sheet to the order system), or else the cost won't upload.
I have found that in some of my upload files there is a space, or sometimes several spaces, at the end of the part number. These spaces will screw up the upload. I alwyas use the "Replace" option to replace spaces with nothing, and that usually works.
In the attached sample file, there are 3 part numbers with a space at the end of the part number. I tried using the replace option. That didn't work. I also tried using the =TRIM() formula and the =CLEAN() formula, and neither of those removed the spaces. Why can't I remove the spaces from the end of these part numbers?
TRIM Or CLEAN Numbers
Jul 5, 2006I'm trying to remove leading spaces in cells that have numbers. I'm familiar with the functions TRIM and CLEAN but they don't seem to work on numbers. Unfortunately, just reformatting the cell as text doesn't work.

Jun 8, 2009I have date/time data in the following form:
Mon Jan 12 07:26:26 EST 2009
I have tried multiple forms of LEFT, RIGHT, MID, etc. Date & Month are always three characters, but the date ("12" in this example) can vary between 1 or 2 characters.
Clean Function - Replace Special Character With Space?
Feb 28, 2013I have special character that I removed with =CLEAN formula.
It was only one character which represents carriage return. It looks like one little square with question mark inside.
After I applied =CLEAN formula it disappeared, but now I don't have space between these two words.
How could I replace this special character with space?
Using TRIM Function
Jan 30, 2008I'm trying to clean up a very large spreadsheet that contains a tremendous amount of empty space.
I tried using the TRIM function to delete some of the additional space within each cell, but it only seems to allow you to update one cell/column at a time.
Is there a way to clean up the entire spreadsheet at once?
Find/Replace all spaces won't work because some cells have multiple words, and they need the space in between.
Using Vlookup On Trim Function
May 1, 2014I'm taking 3 very different reports and consolidating them into one manageable readable form. Only problem is that no 1 report has the same info. I've created a key to form pick up the same information that is read differently. As my spreadsheet grows so do the formula issues. I've had one report that has been the biggest pain to break apart. It takes several things and consolidates them, ex: big 2014 girl - dog 20145
I'm using a trim formula to read the last 5 digits that is the only consistent part of the string. =right(J3,5) to trim what i need to read (20145). this formula works. I'm than trying to preform a Vlookup based on what is returned from the trim. The trim number is located in a separate tab as the "key" 20145 = golden Labradors. formula for vlookup that works by itself, but throws up a blank cell when i point it to the trim cell.
=iferror(vlookup($A2,Info!A:ZZ,2,False)" ")
$A2 = the info 20145 from the trim
Info! = is the tab with my 20145 = golden Labradors
A:ZZ = the range in which i need it to find 20145
2 = the second column where it should find 20145 = golden Labradors
False = exact match.
Why my formulas work separately but not when used together? The Vlookup will work if I type in the number 20145. I don't want to type 20145 anymore. I want to use the trim and have the vlookup notice the number pulled from the trim.

Feb 5, 2009Due to the fact that some of the raw data I get dumped out of my database has leading and trailing spaces it is necessary to trim them. The one part of my code which seems to take forever to run is the section which performs this function on around 22,000 cells in one column. Here is the code I'm using. Is there a better way to do this?
'Set ServiceType = wsTmp.Range("C2:C" & tmpRows)
'
'For Each cell In ServiceType
'cell.Value = Trim(cell.Value)
'Next cell
The thing, with much code, seems to be that the slowness of my computer in executing code is directly proportional to the amount of uptime on the machine. Often a cold start will remedy the issue. Rather than having to do this daily to remedy the situation is there some other remedy to the problem?

Clearing Cell Of All Remnants To Clean Cell To Execute Function

Cell Clean Up Using VBA
Apr 28, 2006I have a spreadsheet that has data in columns A through AE. I have built a VBA that deletes all columns except 2 (columns C & AF), and brings them over to columns A & B.

My VBA deletes all unneeded columns, but I am having trouble getting it to do 2 additional functions. I want it to delete the verbiage of "Assigned ON" in the cells under column AF, and delete the last number of the account number under column C, so that the account number is only 9 digits long.

SQL And VBA Memory Usage And Clean Up
Feb 3, 2010I have created an excel tool w/ A LOT of macros in it, and the tool "speaks" to the SQL server (downloads data from it and uploads it back). My big problem now is that every time I run any of the VBA code the amount of RAM that is getting allocated to Excel (2007) is increasing - I am checking it in the Task Manager. So if I work for a long time without closing down Excel - my entire RAM is getting consumed and the system slows down, and sometimes crushes.
I was wondering if there is a way in VBA to clean up memory that is used by Excel.
Do you have any hints? I am using extensively 3 things - screenupdating off; displaymessages off, and calculations off. But this speeds up Excel but doesn't reduce the memory usage.

Dec 2, 2013I am putting together a master sheet of 1000s of contacts for colleagues taken from various sources (outlook contact download, linked in download, inputted business cards etc). I have noticed that everyone has their own way of using outlook and the data (normally addresses and phone numbers) appear in different columns and formats. I have used the function concatenate to add zeros back to numbers if i have had to use .csv as the download output, but I have the issue of mobile numbers in the wrong columns (i.e. someone has put a mobile number as the business phone). Is there a way of creating a new column and then applying a logic formula of some kind saying if a number starts with 07 then it appears in the new column, but if it doesnt then to ignore it therefore separating the mobile numbers so I can add to the correct column?
