Code To Remove Extra Spaces From Data.
Mar 22, 2007
I have a macro which opens one excel file, then copies the data into another, dead easy. However the first file is 'downloaded' from a bespoke package, where (for whatever reason) the package appends a number of spaces (" ") after data in one of the columns,
So sometimes the data will contain one, ten or more extra spaces (no telling how many) ie, it could look like "AB ", "AB ", or "AB " etc
Ideally What i need is a small bit of code that once the data has been imported to my sheet it can run and 'strip' extra spaces from the column, lets say column f, to leave all the data in this column to look like:
"AB"
"AF"
"CD1"
"VFE"
I am drawing a blank, any simple lines of code?

I have in a range several numbers that contain extra spaces and therefore these are recognized as text.
This is how the numbers would look : " 123.234.567"
How to remove the extra spaces and the points (as otherwise this will also be recognized as text)?

I've created spreadsheet to look after scores & handicaps in a golf society. I'm trying to add extra spaces so that if new members join they can easily be added without me having to add all the extra rows,change formulas at the time.
However I'm getting stuck when trying to sort the table in 'Championship Leaderboard' sheet, basically I only want to sort actual playing members, not the ones marked 'Test'. I've only marked them as 'Test' whilst trying to do this, but they will be blank eventually.
Error values keep popping up, and as a result it won't sort. Trying to get rid of error values to equal 'zero' create problems elsewhere and I just seem to be going round in circles and getting nowhere.
Basically unless a new member is added i don't want anything to appear in the spreadsheet. But i don't want the formulas etc which are there in readiness to affect existing player entries and data
Is VBA the answer or can it be done with formulae etc,

Code:
Filler = "LPPJ4K2**" ' this word is actually is in a cell
Filler = Trim(Filler) ' Not working
Filler = Application.Trim(Filler) ' Not working
Filler = Replace(Filler, " ", "") ' Not working

I have a table of postcodes and I need to import them into a bespoke application. The aaplication requires them to have extra spaces depending on the postcode i.e.
BS35 2JW - this is fine because it has the maximum amount of characters 8
BS1 2JW - I need to add 1 space
B1 2JW - I need to add 2 spaces

I'm in need of some VBA code (to be included in a Macro) that will automatically use the TRIM function for all cells in a whole column and that will then replace the values in that column with the resulting TRIM values. I have a LOT of individual files with varying #'s of records in them, so a way that will address all of them (all the cells in the specified column due to varying #'s of records) would be best.

I'm outputting some cells to a CSV. At first I tried using the SaveAs function but that renamed my worksheet and didn't work for ranges (as far as I know)
Sub Export()
'Set myADPFile = "C:ADPPCPWADPDATAPRSHWEPI.CSV"
Dim myADPFile As String
myADPFile = "C:PRSHWEPI.CSV"
Dim x As Byte
x = 5
Open myADPFile For Output As 1
While (Not (Sheet3.Range("A" & x).Value = NA))
Print #1, Trim(Sheet3.Range("B" & x).Value), ",", _
Trim(Sheet3.Range("C" & x).Value), ",", _
Sheet3.Range("D" & x).Value, ",", _ ..........................
The values are correct. However, the excess amount of spaces is not. Using the Write function just encases everything in quotation marks. Replacing spaces isn't a good solution because the first row MUST be in that format, and removing all spaces would require more code to put spaces back in. Is there a way to get rid of all the excess spaces surrounding each value?

This is a delima I cannot figure out. I had to create passwords for a website we are building. I have 3000 employee numbers has to be used. So what i did was took the first initial and middle initial and last initial and first 5 of the ID number. I did a comma delimiter to obtain all of the letters and numbers. example: ABC12345
My problem is none of the passwords work because when I imported the letters and numbers into the sheet it looks just like the above. However on review I cut and pasted back to notepad and the data looks like this:
"A B C 12345"
So its adding a tab in the password thats thats a problem, How do I remove this extra white space between each comma delimited digit? without having to manually delete it ?

I am trying to remove spaces in front of a number (currently formatted as text)
I have tried "Text to Columns", "Trim", and other suggestions in previously threads.
I have copied bank statement amounts from an e-mail and the $ amounts have one Space in front of them. When I use the Trim function, and then a paste special, I still cannot get rid of the space, and so cannot add up the amounts in this column.
Ex:
*7 Dec 2007*DEPOSIT*3,917.63
*7 Dec 2007*DEPOSIT*1,890.58

I have a column of data in which each cell contains a line of text. Each line of text has spaces after the letters end and there doesn't seem to be a consistent number of trailing spaces.
I can clean up the data using the TRIM function but is it possible to use the TEXT TO COLUMNS functionality?

I have written a function which works in the same way as the concatenate formula but where required it uses an underscore to make up the length (14 Characters) of the result. I seem however to have hit a minor snag when users input trailing spaces. I thought I could use trim to eliminate them but it doesnt seem to be working
Function HypCon(CorpAcct, Subdiv)
Dim n, i, iLen, iLen2 As Integer
Dim sCorpAcct, sSubdiv As String
Dim iLen3, iLen4 As Integer
iLen = Len(Trim(CorpAcct))
iLen2 = 7
iLen3 = Len(Trim(Subdiv))
iLen4 = 5..............

I'm trying to use the SUBSTITUTE function to remove spaces from my cells in column A. The trouble is My formula is removing all the spaces from the cell. My formula is: SUBSTITUTE(A1," ","")
I do however have many cells that contain a space between characters 5 and 7 and spaces at the end of the cell which have been padded out to 15 characters long.Its only the spaces at the end of the cells I need to remove.

I am trying to do a vlookup. I receive a report that gives the data as hyperlinks. I run a macro to remove the hyperlinks. I'm then left with a name that i want to match using a vlookup to get other data. The names are Chinese characters. I have tried using trim and clean function but its still leaving a space after the name. If i fo in manually and delete the space at the end the vlookup works fine. How to remove the spaces? i have about 5000 rows.

I use a program that can export data into Excel. For the most part, it works fine. except it doesn't correctly handle dates. For some reason, when it pastes a date into excel it includes 8 or 9 (depending if the month is 1 or 2 digits) spaces in front of the date which makes calculations with these dates impossible unless you go into each cell and delete the spaces (or do Find / Replace).
Is there a way I can create a non-VBA formula that will reference any one of these cells and some how identify what the date is & then that cell can be the date I can calc on? I.e., A1 is the date with the spaces in front, B2 is the cell that will reference A1 and produce, as the contents of B2, the date in A1. I can then use B2 in calculations.
Note: the month formats possible are: M/DD/YY (Jan. - Sept.) & MM/DD/YY (Oct. - Dec.). There are no other variations.
