Clipboard Manipulation

Oct 6, 2007

I am looping through and copying screens of mainframe data and appending them to the clipboard. Once done, I start a Notepad and paste it for future massaging. Now I need to perform a check on each screen which requires copying something from the screen, assigning to a variable, and checking it. This overwrites what I've already stored on the clipboard. Is there a way to store what I've got on the clipboard, then use the clipboard for something else, and then reload the clipboard?

VBA String Manipulation

Sep 1, 2009

I need to be able to take someones name which is in a single cell in the format "First Middle Last" (could be more than one middle name) and then split it up so that it fits the following format:

Last name (must be 50 characters)
Middle name (must be 15 characters)
First Name (must be 15 characters)

I'm unsure on the right combination of operators to use to variably concatenate strings in this way. I'm confident I can figure out how to add the white spaces after a name to make it fit the character requirement but I don't know how to split the initial name up into it's 3 parts. Names longer than the character requirement will just be truncated.

Data Manipulation And Weighting

May 25, 2009

The data is arranged as such, there are a list of call types and in another column, there are a list of call lengths. Currently I have a COUNTIF which searches the call type column for certain call types ie BA is off peak but this only tells me how many off peak calls they have made, I need to make it tell me how many minutes of off peak calls there are.
IE this is an example
Call Types Call Lengths (minutes)
BA 1
BA 1
BA 3
BA 2
at the moment my formula would only count this as 4 but I need it to calculate it as 7. This is a very big data set containing around 900 entries per sheet.

String Manipulation With Exceptions

Jul 23, 2009

I have a macro that loops through a column of text and removes all text after a hyphen. Example: AU9929-PK becomes AU9929. I need to set up some exceptions that when it processes certain text it does not truncate it. Example: AU9929-ASST stays as AU9929-ASST. So far there are twelve exceptions but this could increase.

Note: The list which includes shop number, description, sku, sku description, quantity, unit price and more is sorted in a particular order as other operations are performed on it that requires it be in a specific order.

Fancy String Manipulation

Aug 1, 2008

I am trying to let the user call my subroutine in the following 5 ways but am lost using string manipulation -

Call FindReplaceAll(“C”, “123”, “1.23”) ‘ In Col C replace 123 with 1.23
Call FindReplaceAll(“2”, “123”, “1.23”) ‘ In Row 2 replace 123 with 1.23

Call FindReplaceAll(“C:E”, “123”, “1.23”) ‘In Col C-E replace 123 with 1.23
Call FindReplaceAll(“2:4”, “123”, “1.23”) ‘In Rows 2-4 replace 123 with 1.23

Call FindReplaceAll(“C9:E19”, “123”, “1.23”) ‘In region C9-E9 replace 123 with 1.23

Here is what I am trying to do in psudo
Sub FindReplaceAll(sType As String, sFind As String, sReplace As String)
If sType does not have a colon in it then
If sType = “A-IV” or sType = “a-iv” only then
Columns(sType &”:”& sType).Select
If sType = “1-65000” then
Rows(sType &”:”& sType).Select
Else

Formula For Text Manipulation

Oct 25, 2006

I have a file with a physician name and title in the cell as follows:

"James A. Jones, M.D."

I need a formula to reverse the last name, drop the title "M.D.", get rid of any additional periods after the middle initial and put it in upper case:

"JONES, JAMES A"

There are some names without middle initials also so this may present an additional problem.

Numeric String Manipulation Query

Dec 23, 2009

I have a sizable spreadsheet, which has one column where the cells are mostly numeric strings of up to 6 numbers - there are variations, which I will mention.

What I need to do, is to treat the numbers as individual figures, and add them, then divide by the number of figures. e.g. cell value '123456' I need to process as (1+2+3+4+5+6)/6.

The variations are that '0' has to be added as 10, and any letters need to be added as 12. '-' and '/' which are the only non-alphanumeric values should be ignored.

Using String Manipulation To Create And Change Wroksheet Name.

Dec 5, 2008

i have a worksheet called 'week 1' and want to write vba code so that a new sheet called 'week 2' can be created. However i want to write code so that it doesn't matter what sheet i am on, a new sheet would be created with the name week and the next number up. ie. the last worksheet is 'week 7' then the code should be able to create a new worksheet called 'week 8' ect. I currently have this code but it keeps returning an error message. anyone know how i could do this???

Sub nSheet()
Dim nm, i As Long
nm = Worksheets(Worksheets.Count).name
i = 1
Sheets.Add
Do While WorksheetExists(Left(nm, Len(nm) - 1) & i)
i = i + 1
Loop
ActiveSheet.name = Left(nm, Len(nm) - 1) & i
End Sub

Chart Title Manipulation With Macro Code

Sep 2, 2006

I have a program that updates values quarterly when run. The spreadsheet that it works with also contains a couple of pie charts that correspond to the updated data. the charts only have one series with category values. I recorded a macro to see the code excel uses for creating a new chart and tried to modify the statements to my needs but have been running into runtime error 1004 ("Method ' Cells' of Object '_Global' failed"). The code is as follows I don't have any trouble until the last two statements.

Sub Chart_Updater()
Sheets(Chart1var).Select
With ActiveChart
.HasTitle = True
If Chart1var = "COLI VUL 1 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 1 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
& sday & "-" & sday & "-" & Lyear
ElseIf Chart1var = "COLI VUL 2 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 2 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
& sday & "-" & sday & "-" & Lyear
ElseIf Chart1var = "COLI VUL 7 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 7 Allocation by Fund Provider " _

The variables fundtr1, fundtr2, and emptycolvar are public, and are all returning values, so there is no problem there. Also I can't use ranges like "A1:F7" because the range needs to be variable.

Image Manipulation In Photoshop To Lose The Cell Data

Oct 12, 2009

I've created a humongous spreadsheet in Excel- 26 million cells and a file size of about 500mb. The result of these calculations is a pattern derived by conditional formatting. I'd like to get the pattern into Photoshop- It would actually simplify image manipulation in Photoshop to lose the cell data, and the underlying formulas are of no use.

The file seems to be too big to save into a PDF file. Is there another way to get the Image into Photoshop?. The other alternative is to reduce the file size by stripping out unnecessary cell data and formulas without losing the pattern.

Clipboard Clearing

Clear Clipboard

Oct 7, 2007

I'm currently opening up worksheets, copying the data there inside tables and pasting it over to a new worksheet which is basically the summary of all the data, unfortunately because I am moving large amounts of data, half way through the process I get a pop up asking me if I want to copy data to wherever to make sure it's stored or do I want to loose it, of course it's only a matter of hitting the no button to re-write the data so copy and paste carries on working but is there no function in VBA to clear the clipboard after every copy and paste, such as clipboard.clear, or something along those lines? Anything that will stop this message from appearing, I was my summary worksheet to work without popups appearing because then that would mean someone would have to sit there as it copies and pastes values, clicking no every time the clipboard gets full.

Turning Off The Clipboard Sound

Dec 12, 2007

I recently installed Office 2002 onto a new computer and found that whenever I drag-and-drop any amount of data from one cell to another, a loud obnoxious noise plays when I release the drag-and-drop data.

I was using the same version of Office on my old computer and did not have this problem.

I'm guessing it's a clipboard issue, since when I open the Excel clipboard (where I currently have all options as unchecked) and copy something so it is captured there, the same noise plays.

I already have turned off Windows sounds via the Control Panel and have no clue how to turn off this sound.

Stop VB From Clearing Clipboard

Apr 6, 2010

I have a file with Workbook Activate/Deactivate and Worksheet Activate/Deactivate commands in it. When someone is trying to copy information from or to this workbook the VB automatically clears the clipboard (or at least that's how I understand it), which makes it so they can't paste that data anywhere else. How can I prevent this, but still keep my current commands?
