I have sheet 1 with a list of numbers in column A and a list of text next to them in column B. I need the code to look at a list of words that will be in column A on sheet 2 and if any of those words appear anywhere within the cell (could be at the beginning, middle or end) in column B on sheet 1 then I need the entire row deleted.

I'm using =LEN(TRIM(C2))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(C2," ",""))+1 to do a word count. What I need is a formula that will delete all characters between the first and last word if the word count equals more than 2. Even just a formula to determine the location of the first and last space so I can use MID() to cut it out.
I have a column containing mixed text and I want to remove everything from the column except instances of certain colors; black, red, blue etc. Is there a formula which would do this or can it be done with Search/Replace?

If not, is there a way to limit each row to only keep the first 11 characters?
I need a formula which can clean up a huge data set. Essentially i need to delete the entire word which contains the characters "aceae". note that "aceae" is a suffix, but i need to delete the entire word not just the suffix, plus keep the rest of the string. i have tried the "find and replace" function of excel with wildcard, but that deletes everything before/after without deleting the entire word. i have tried a combination of formulas to isolate the unwanted words, but that method is inefficient and inaccurate. below is a schematic of what im looking to do:
Column A ------------------------------ Column B
l. planeri asteraceae africa laselva-----> l. planeri africa laselva
l. planeri moraceae europe singer------> l. planeri europe singer
origin l. fluviatilis bignoniaceae asia----> origin l. fluviatilis asia
alternate l. fluviatilis piperaceae asia---> alternate l. fluviatilis asia

View 9 Replies View Relatedhow to create one macro: I have a spreadsheet with 8 columns with various text headings. Each column has different data (some show dates, some show only figures, some show text). Specifically, column E (entitled "Sub Item Reference") has various text entries (e.g. "Newsletter" or "Booklet"). I am hoping to find a simple macro that will search column E and delete any rows where that column contains the text "Cover" or "Label". I'm sure it's the simplest thing going but I can't seem to work it out.

On the sheet titled Price List, in row 1, I have an =IFERROR(HLOOKUP( formula to show what I need. The Data Pull sheet can be updated using a third party software, and retailers can be added or deleted. The purpose is that if a retailer is deleted from the Data Pull sheet, it will automatically be removed from the list on the Price List sheet, rather than just showing a bunch of N/A's in every cell. Then if it is re-added in the future, it will repopulate on the Price List sheet.
The formula I have in row 1 is my manual way of showing whether or not the retailer was deleted. If it contains EXCLUDE, you can go in and manually delete the column. However, I would rather have a macro do this.
it's possible to select a group of cells, or a column, and then have specific words (and the colon), like Email: Tel: Fax: and URL: found and removed?

I've got a sheet that I build from a weekly sheet. I can have 30 to 60 rows, but I always have 10 to 20 rows left over with data in column C, none in A, my last code is "Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select" which takes me to the last cell in column A. Any code that I can then delete say 20 rows after that? I tried one code, but it wanted to delete everything below the cell selected which ran & ran.
"-" are blanks. Range moves the selected cell to A4. I want to delete row selected + 19 more.

One more thing and I think I completed my project. I have a tab called comments.
Column A and B will always have data in them from 1-320.
Column C may or may not have data in it from 1-320.
Is there a code I could tie a button with that will delete the cells A and B if C has no data but leave it alone if C has data?
Ex: [URL] ........
When I click sort, only A1, B1, C1 and A5, B5 and C5 will still be there and everything else deleted.
how would one change the actual code words - instead of using if statements i would like to have when statements that do exactly the same thing, i just want to write "when blah then blah"

I'm trying to write a VBA script which will delete all rows in my Excel spreadsheet where Column I (which contains a status code) does not contain the word "Completed".
At the moment, I'm doing this the other way round: my script is able to search for entries in Column I which contain the status codes "Pending", "Awaiting Authorisation", "In Progress" etc and delete them. The idea is that when all those rows are deleted, I'll only be left with rows which have a status of "Completed". This works fine at the moment. However, the concern is that if a brand new status code is added to the data file, my script would be unable to pick it up and delete it. This is a small sample of the code I'm currently using (which deletes all the rows with statuses other than Completed):
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. It's like a conjugation tool for verbs.

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)?
(Also can it recognize the word by letters? Because the basic word that I would load the program= List2+List3+List4)
