However I have survey data results and in one of the cells it has multiple values which are separated between ; and some are not separated at all e.g B&Q; The Range; Wicks The Garden Shop
Also there are spelling mistakes everywhere and variation of the word B&Q e.g b+q, B n Q
I need to add count up all of the B&Q, Wicks etc...
I have a database of sales records containing 6 address columns (C-H). I want to extract the country (which may be entered in any of the 6 columns) and place this in a separate column. I have a definitive list of countries on sheet 2 which I have saved as a named range (Country).
I would like to be able to set something up which searches the six address fields on sheet 1 and if a match is found against the Country range, enter this in a separate column (I). A non-code solution would be ideal as I am nowhere near that level yet and want to be able to understand what I am doing as far as possible!
I have several time series in excel pulled from a datasource on a daily basis, however some series include weekends, some dont and some others have a few days missing. What I did is I already have a column set up with only weekdays on the other sheet, what I am trying to do is match the data with the dates.
The obvious choice is vlookup, but given that I have over 50 time series and the time span is over 10 yrs, its not the optimal solution...it will crash the sheet i think. I also tried a combo of match and index...but same...too many formulas. I think I need a macro. Does anyone who analyzes time series have a "cleaning" code that he oe she can share with me?
how to split data into columns.
I have a set of (imported) data consisting of 1000+ rows. The data set (bank statement) contain six informations (date1, transaction, vendor, date2, sum1, sum2) in one cell which has to be split into six columns.
Using text-to-columns will generate more than six columns since the set dosn't have any delimiters and both the transaction and vendor name-fields contain blank spaces.
Is there a way to either split the data into the correct number of columns or if text-to-columns is used - a way to manipulate the data into the correct columns, for instance with help of filtering ?

How can I count the number of gaps (spaces) of a string? (Adding one we have number of words!). I need to save the position of each gap (space) on a array. How can I do it? With InStr()? The variable (string) that i'm working is GlbTargetRange.Value
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to build a function, but I haven't been able to successfully navigate some of the eccentricities of Excel formula-building.
Right now I am working on counting all of the cells that contain numbers (so likely just a =COUNT function), but will be eventually getting other descriptive stats as well. My problem is that I would like to create a formula that will perform the counting/mean calculation, etc., but only on a specific column that has the header cell that contains several specific words. Rather than having to type in the target words for each column, I would like to have the target words in the function be imported from multiple designated cells.
For example,
I want to find how many numbered cells are found in column E headed as "dog brown," but I also have columns headed as "cat brown" "dog black" etc. (which I will be using the formula on later) to paint a small picture, in my descriptive table, "dog" is in B31 and "brown" is in C30, then "cat" in B32 and "black" in D30.
I am basically doing some housekeeping and trying to reduce my number of code lines.
Can this bit of code be done a bit simpler?
For r = lrow To 15 Step -1
If Range("N" & r).Interior.Color = vbRed Then
Range("N" & r).Interior.Color = vbCyan

I am using VBA to enter customer information into a Microsoft SQL database. I have an excel sheet with thousands of customers listed. I will be using a While loop to process each line of the sheet. Part of the While loop needs to make any format changes necessary before the data moves over to the DB. So here is the issue:
How do I turn the following phone numbers:
(410) 273-9200
910-944-1232
276 623 4254
410 612 1100 Rob
(413) 786-1636 Cindy
1-800-783-4661
304) 842-5491 Sherry
Into a uniform layout? I would prefer ###-###-####
Each of the numbers above is an example from the list I have. There may be more variations (I have over 20 seperate lists to process, with over 10000 customers per list)
I imagine I need some process that will remove all character except numbers and then break the numbers up to add the hyphens back in at the appropriate places.
I frequently use the record option to start off my macros. I realize this usually results in recorded events which are not absolutely necessary (recording a print macro is one that is full of excess line items). I then try and combine what I have recorded with what I have garnered from this wonderful website. If my spreadsheets are small - and I am not writing code to pass any inspections - is there a need to go back and clean up?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an old customer list maintained by my company's previous owner in excel format that mostly stored numbers ###-#### format, but also some in ###-###-#### format.
My new list has always been maintained with numbers in (###) ###-#### format.
I have merged these two lists in a new excel file have begun the tedious process of cleaning up duplicates and bad data.
I have used conditional formatting to highlight duplicate numbers in the appropriate columns (L, M, N, O) in this case. However, it does't find matches in the other formats or perhaps the number with the old area code. I know the area code change could lead to false positives, but they should be minimal as this is a small business with mostly local customers. So what I'd like to find out is a formula for conditional formatting that will compare the last 8 characters in each cell (###-####) so as to eliminate issues of missing or different area codes. I would like it to check all of the columns for duplicate numbers not just within each column or within each row individually.
Also separate but related if possible to highlight a different color any cells with data not in any of these formats or if not in (###) ###-#### format if it's too much for all the formats.
I wanted to create a target workbook that is a subset of the source workbook
1) I want to specify a list of worksheets in the source workbook:
For Each WSCurrent In Sheets(Array("SheetA", "SheetB", "SheetC"))
Next WSCurrent
2) I want to them copy these sheets into another workbook (don't know how to code this)
3) I then want to hardcode all these sheets (I don't know the most efficient way to do this)
4) Lastly, I want to eliminate certain columns (can be fed through a hardcoded list of Columns to delete e.g. X, W, Z)
Is there a formula where I can take a zip code, and for any zip codes that have the 4 digit zip code extension, to remove those 4 digits, and to add a zero to the beginning of any zip codes where the zero was cut off. Is there a formula I can run my zips through to do both of those tasks?

I am wondering if there is an easier way to look up values in a matrix. I use the VLOOKUP with the vertical values as the lookup_value, then another lookup for the col_index_number to find the horizontal values. The example in the attached file is just a sample of my spreadsheet. I need to apply this to a roughly 10*10 matrix (which changes every now and then) and apply this matrix to over 1,200 rows. Is there an easy way to returne theses values or is the way I am currently doing it the best option.

My problem has to do with an list of over 22,000 addresses (don't want to think about going through it manually )
The names are in column A and the addresses are in column B. The problem is, is that some of the addresses fit in one cell and others are spread over two (Oklahoma City, OK in one cell, 73034 in the one below it, for example.)
The names with corresponding addresses taking up two squares have been placed in merged cells, so that they line up with their addresses. Here is a picture below.
Capture.PNG
What I need is each address in one cell next to its address in one cell (to make it searchable, etc.) I thought I was being really clever when I copied Column A, then pasted the formatting onto Column B (so that the cells would be 1:1, one name cell, one address cell) but didn't realize I would be losing the information in the cells being merged.
I have a column of words in Column A and I want to replace all the times that these words appear in the rest of the excel sheet with the words in Column B. If someone has already answered a similar problem link me to the thread because I can't find anything.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a macro to remove all words (in a single word per cell format) in a range (approx 100 columns & 7000 rows), except for a list of 100 words.
I'd prefer to email the file if that's okay.
I've been using conventional method to do this and it's time consuming. I would like to total up 2 column. A multiply B to be exact. Below are some examples:
Table 1 - Before totaling up:
Quantity
Product
5
2 x Button A White
3
4 x Button B Pink
4
5 x Ribbon A Black
2
3 x Thread A White
6
2 x Cloth A Blue
Table 2 - After totaling up:
Quantity
Product
10
Button A White
12
Button B Pink
20
Ribbon A Black
6
Thread A White
12
Cloth A Blue
I need to have the sum of the "Quantity" multiply "Product". Or in short A x B.
And the end result need to have the number and "x" sign removed while keeping on the the products names. (2 x ) Take note it's "number" space "symbol" space.
I am trying to find certain words in a column and delete the word and characters following. For example, Say I have a column of info as seen below. This is a test of me. I am just experimenting with this stuff. Deleted (6/15/01) Let me know what you think. I am not sure about it all, but I guess I will figure it out. riviledge1 (01/05/06) Now let's see what happens when I try to test it.
I want to find all the "Priviledge1 (01/05/06)" and replace with nothing. Please note, the date will change with each record, so I need to figure out how to tell Excel to find "Priviledge1", delete it and the date behind it. So I want to delete "Priviledge1" and the next 11 characters including the space.
On to the topic, I have all the US and Canadian states abbreviated (CO = Colorado, etc.) and was wondering if there is a way to make all of them convert to their respective names in one fell swoop instead of writing it in for each one, one at a time. Something along the lines where I can make, CO = Colorado, TX = Texas and then hit enter and all of the abbreviations would convert. Some kind of command.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have 4-5 separate lists of words/letters and I would like to combine them in a certain order but creating all possible combinations resulting a new word.

Preferentially I would like to automate it in a way that it straight outputs into MS Access. Also can it be automated that it reads the list from a file (database)?
