Collect Text & Parse Across Columns
Oct 18, 2007
I was wondering how I would go about witting a vba for that can be connected to a button which would allow me to enter a row of input.
Some of these values I would like entered for example are: Quantity, Shape, Weight, length....
I would like the user to be prompted to enter these values and then have these values entered into columns, ABC... in a row on the spread sheet.
The catch is I would like this new date to be entered on one sheet via its weight (so that lightest material is on top), on another sheet in this workbook entered via its location so material in the same locations are adjacent to one another, and then finally I would like this updated onto another worksheet.

I am working on modifying this code (below) that I found here: VB Macro to search webpage for text string
Code:
Option Explicit
Public stResultstr As String
Sub SearchForString()
Dim rngURL As Range
Dim cll As Range
Dim stCheck As String
Dim xmlHttp As Object
[Code]...
So right now I have the script prompt you for a URL range, then it asks you for what you want to search for, and I have it set to return the next 10 characters from that found point.
You can see here:
Code:
If InStr(1, stResult, stCheck, vbBinaryCompare) > intt Then
intt = InStr(1, stResult, stCheck, vbBinaryCompare) + Len(stCheck)
I began to create something to identify the last position of the found item because next I want to loop it to find the next occurance of the same thing and return the next 10 characters after it in the next cell to the right in that same row:
Code:
cll.Offset(, 1).Value = stResultstr
Again, what I want to do here is find and parse out every occurence of a string (inputbox) found on a web page url in column A. The parse occurrences will go to the right in cells C though ? for row N.

I have data that I copy from one sheet and move it to another. If I know I'm parsing data that may vary in amount of line items but will always be across 3 columns is there a way to parse this data evenly.
for example:
I would like to look in column "D" and if there is an "A" I would like to parse cells A,B,C in that row to sheet 2 and parse this information evenly across 3 columns evenly across columns "A,E, I"
In my example the data is only 21 rows of information the problem I have is evenly parsing this information.

I want to select a cell that contains a job number, use the text from that cell as the new file save as name (got the file creation part sorted out) and then continue from there to go back and create a hyperlink in the original cell to the newly generated spreadsheet. I know it involves variables, have tried things like currentcell.value but can't get what I want.

VBA code (or formulas) that can parse data from individual cells into multiple columns? I have attached a file noting the current inputs in columns A-F and the desired outputs in columns I-O. Additionally, I have noted the distinguishing criteria for each of the fields in cells I13-O13. Also, I noticed that each of the data points in the input cells are separated by at least two spaces. Lastly, the input data in the working sheet goes from columns A-H and the desired outputs would start from column I; with row 1 having the headers.

Trying to Parse text in Excel - Since there is no definitive length and no standard in the way the name is created , I am having tough time to use the Software reports.
A column is from software report,
I am looking for any option to arrive at values as appearing in F column.
I did B and C column but not sure is there any other efficient way of doing the same or any other formula to arrive at F - Desired Result.

I need to parse text strings and format them.
The string looks like this and runs down an unknown number of rows in one column, Col A.
+000800-000900+00123456-000800+0012345650+000700
I want to parse this so that the results will be text to columns
80.0 90.0 1234.56 80.0 1234.56 50 70.0
I want to thank BrettH for creating this VB. I want to manipulate it to read every row in Col A that has data, and then I want to parse the data as shown above. BrettH's VB works but I couldn't modify it to read all the rows that had data. I tried looping the rows using a counter loop and also a For Each loop, but could'nt get it to work.
Sub ParseInCellMath()
Dim DefaultRange As String, UserRange As Range, OrigForm As String
Dim TempForm As String, NegString As String, NegStart As Integer

I'm trying to populate a ComboBox or ListBox with elements parsed from a html code I've already parsed from a webpage. Explaining: I was able to extract from the webpage code the part that contains the information I want, which is:
VB:
<li><a href="/universidad/" rel="*">Universidades</a></li>
<li><a href="/universidad/duoc/" rel="28184">DuocUC</a></li>
<li><a href="/universidad/inacap/" rel="28162">INACAP</a></li>
[Code].....
Now I want to make a ComboBox containing every university as a different option and, if possible, to assign them the corresponding values shown in the code.

I have a software application that imports audio files and writes information about these files to text files. I'm trying to write and Excel/VBA application that will parse and import the data contained in these files. find a sample of one of these files attached. The big hurdle I am facing is I cannot figure out how to parse this file - the delimiter keeps changing as throughout the file (see example below):
otrk ´ptrk ¬
otrk Îptrk Æ
otrk Ôptrk Ì
otrk âptrk Ú
otrk *ptrk "
otrk Øptrk Ð
otrk þptrk ö
otrk ´ptrk ¬
otrk ptrk
otrk Ðptrk È
otrk Þptrk Ö
otrk þptrk ö
otrk ptrk
otrk îptrk æ

I receive a text file daily of between 100 to 50,000 rows. It is a combination of many smaller text files or " records". Each record contains a row containing the name and some particulars . From 1 to 5 rows below that row there may or may not be a row containing the score for that record.
Here is an example of what the rows look like;
4505329 64036593 150090 MS MARY SMITH AB Finished
CRP 3.0 SCORE: 400
From the first row I need to pull out the second string of digits (ex 64036593) and the person's name. From the second row I need to extract the score (400). I would like to copy the three pieces of information to 3 separate columns on another sheet.
Comments
1. the word "Finished" always appears at the end of the row with the name in it but it also appears at the end of every record in it's own row like this;
Finished No Note
2. the strings of digits in the first row can vary in length but there are always 3 of them and they are always seperated by spaces.
I need to extract all the names and scores and put them in a table. If a name is not followed by a score I need to put "no score".

"Use a formula to fill in column F (brand name) in the data worksheet. The Brand Name is the Branded Description minus the last word.
NOTE extra mark: If your formula can’t find a space (is error = true) then it takes whatever is in the cell and uses that."
Would I be using the CONCANATE formula or something similar?

I am attempting to extract a particular piece of data from a webpage. I was not able to use a webquery because the data can only be reached by searching an online database and the URL remains static throughout this process.
http://gisims2.co.miami-dade.fl.us/myhome/proptext.asp
The data of interest is contained in a simple, 2-column table with item descriptions in the first column and item values in the second. The code below is my closest attempt. I am attempting to look through the innertext of all the tables on the results page and see if any contain the text "CLUC", which is the description of the data I'm trying to retrieve. The code never finds any qualifying tables.
Sub PropInfo()
Dim appIE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
Set appIE = New SHDocVw.InternetExplorer

I am trying to determine a way to quickly import data from text files into Excel and place data in suitable columns (under correct headings). I am thinking I could be asked which file to read and import doing them 1 by 1, or if there is an automated way to cycle through all the files that would be more efficient (filenames are variable).
From the text files I have attached I can tell the column headers and what data should go under each. Not sure how you would describe the delimiting on these files? Are these files in a format that VBA could be used to reduce manual copy and paste approach? I have about 300 of these files I want to extract the data from.
Note: the attached files are from a public access website.

I have a macro which imports data from a mainframe dump text file and performs 'Text to Columns' on the imported data so that formula in the spreadsheet can act on the data. The code works perfectly well when I use it, but if a different user logs on and performs exactly the same mainframe dump and import macro the Text to Columns action splits the raw data in a different way and the result is that the split renders the formulae useless.
I've experimented a little and for some reason it appears that the 'Field Info' parameters which are produced when the Text to Columns function is recorded in a macro differ between users even though the raw data is exactly the same.
FieldInfo:= _
Array(Array(0, 1), Array(18, 1), Array(35, 1), Array(56, 1), Array(70, 1), Array(88, 1), _
Array(102, 1))

I bought 32 laptops out of my own moeny (used) to get my 5th grade students into the 21st century. I have several programs working on these laptops which output data in text and xls files. I would like to either:
1. Poll the files on each workstation at the end of the day and bring the data into excel (I have worked in VBA). Computers are named Comp01 to Comp33.
2. Better: have the workstations save the files to my NAS device so they are on one hard drive.
I would like to keep it simple (I'm a teacher not a good programmer.) Is the "Import External Data" the way to go for the text files? Can a macro go out and loop through the 32 laptops using that or some other add-in?

I'm importing data from the internet. The cell I'm trying to get is B8 on "Temp_Data" onto cell E3 on "Other Data". When it imports the cell into Temp_Data for some reason the cell expands, and I can't have that. I would manually copy and "Paste Special", text, into the proper cell, and that works. I can also copy the fist 7 letters in the string from B8 and paste them into E3. My code currently looks like this:

I have a need to collect cells from different worksheets based on several criterias.
The worksheets all have one column and cell value in common, "Project name".
I need to collect some cells from different worksheets and visualize them on a new worksheet.
The cells I want to collect is:
- Project name
- Status of Project
- Income
I have been able collect these data. But the trick is that I need to sort these collected data on "Status of Project". The status of a project can be one of three: Committed, Uncommitted or Unspecified.
So what I need is three bulks, something like this:
HTML Code:
Committed
"Project name" "Income"
"Project name" "income"
Etc.
Uncommitted
"Project name" "Income"
"Project name" "income"
Etc.
Unspecified
"Project name" "income"
"Project name" "income"
Etc.
The point is that this can be done manually, but to have a macro doing this would obviously save ridiculous amount of time for me..

Is there any way to force some sort of garbage collect in order to free up memory? I am running some code which takes values from one workbook and pastes them into the control workbook. It currently works when 15 sheets of data are being moved however, my data has just grown to 16 sheets and now the code gives me the not enough resources message. If a garbage collect would solve this issue would I need to also reset any variables I had defined in the code?

I have 2 excel files(X and Y), and I would like to collect data from file X to file Y.
.................
In file X, I have a products prices lists that I got from my supplier. It look like that:
column:
A = LIST NUMBER (NUMBER)
B=ITEM NUMBER (TEXT)
C=DESCRIPTION (TEXT)
D=PRICE (TEXT OR "CALL" OR PRICE LIKE $90.00)
E= LIST NUMBER (NUMBER)
F=ITEM NUMBER (TEXT)
G=DESCRIPTION (TEXT)
H=PRICE (TEXT OR "CALL" OR PRICE LIKE $90.00)
Rows of A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H start from 1 to 400
..................
In file Y, I have 1 column and it looks like that:
column:
A= MODEL NUMBER (TEXT OR NUMBER)
..................
The calculation I would like to do is:
pass in each ROW of Coulmn A in file Y and search if there is the same MODEL NUMBER (TEXT OR NUMBER) in file X at ROWS C,G (The DESCRIPTION (TEXT)) for example:
If in file Y Column A1 = FG45673 (MODEL NUMBER ) the macro will look in file X in Columns C,G to see if it finds this MODEL NUMBER. It can find text like: "3 pcs of FG45673 " so it means it find it !
THEN the MACRO should copy from the price Columns D or H to Column B of file Y.
In other words to collect the products prices from file X according to their model number field and to copy it to the same MODEL NUMBER of file Y.
in file X there are 2 lists of products prices as you can understand from my info.
