Concatenate Non Blank Cells But Use Concatenate And Substitute Instead Of IF
Aug 11, 2013
Sampling table :
one
two
three
four
one
two
three
one
two
one
Desired results obtained via IF =IF(B2>0,A2&" , ",A2)&IF(C2>0,B2&" , ",B2)&IF(D2>0,C2&" , ",C2)&IF(D2>0,D2,"")
one , two , three , four
one , two , three
one , two
one
Is there any smarter, shorter formula via Concatenate and Substitute or other formulas ?
My closest match, but not good enaugh is =SUBSTITUTE(CONCATENATE(A2&", "&B2&", "&C2&", "&D2), ", , ", " ")
[ returna 2 commad ]
one, two, three, four
one, two, three,
one, two
one ,
Is this possible because when i try to use the Substitute formula my Concatenate formula is doesn't work. This data in cell A1 is linked from another sheet
PHONE
WIRE CANDY INDIA
When I use the Concatenate formula only, it works fine but when i try to add the Substitute to this, it looks like this
PHONE WIRE CANDY INDIA
I want it to look like this, removing any blank lines within cell A1
PHONE WIRE CANDY INDIA
Something wrong with the formula? how come it doesn't do both? =SUBSTITUTE(CONCATENATE(A1),CHAR(10),"")
As long as 04:Q4 are ALL non-blank cells, the formula works. However, if ANY of the cells are blank, it displays the green rectangle in N4, but it doesn't offer the Trace option.
I am attempting to concatentate several cells (10 to be exact). I only want to include cells that are not blank in the output. I searched the topics and found a similar problem. I attempted to modify that solution to fit my needs but I obviously do not quite understand exactly how it worked. I have attached a sample. The expected results are that if in row 1 columns a through j have any value they will then be concatenated or joined in some other fashiion seperated by a comma. I only want to include non blank values. I have placed the code that I attemted to use in this post.
I Want to be able to put in Col A the concatenate results of all equal P/N's from any given list. Or at least select the few cells that i know are duplicates and from that copy the Location to a single Column.
ColA ColB__ColC ______Loc__PN 1,2____1___A _______2___A _______3___B 4,5____4___C _______5___C
I would typically consider myself a decent Excel user, but I haven't been able to solve this one. Maybe it's just the lack of sleep now. I am attempting to combine 4 cells into one where the last cell contains a date. Below is the formula I am using:
=B3&" "&C3&" "&D3&" "&TEXT(E3,"m/d/yy")
It works when all of the cells have values, but the only problem I am having is that some of the dates (in column E) are blank. When this cell is blank the default date that displays is "1/0/00." If I add the typical, " " at the end it says the formula has errors. The need for the TEXT(E3,"m/d/yy") for the cells that contain dates is throwing me off.
I am using concatenate to create a list of bottles based on other data, so that each cell contains a different combination of bottles.
The problem is that the list appears but there is also FALSE for every bottle that doesn't relate to that cell.
Is there a way to create a formula such that nothing appears if it is not true? And is there a shorter way of writing what I am after, I can't quite finish the formula becaise it is so long.
I wish to Concatenate contents of several columns into a separate column, i tried using the following "column1 & column2 & column3 etc..." however with this the blank cells get concatenated too...What should is use so that contents get concatenated but blank cells are ignored?
I'm having a rather difficult time getting this one.
I am concatenating (is that a verb?) a bunch of cells to create an item code. The combination of two different cells need to be able to give different values so I can dump the appropriate value into the CONCATENATE formula.
On tab 2 of a spreadsheet, I am trying to concatenate several cells on tab one! Everything comes together in the cell on tab 2, however it does not hold the date format. It turns it into general text so just random numbers that do not even tie to the date. Any way to lock the date format for this idea?
I concatenate value of the several cells at one. (A1&"/"B1&"/"&C1 and etc. The length of characters may be different and I want it be looking neat by adding spaces. Something like that:
I've been trying to use IF OR and CONCATENATE to read 4 cells and give me a list of parts needed based on the data loaded in the 4 cells. I attached an example showing.
I know how to do the "normal" type of concatenation (concatenating?), but I was wondering if there was a way to concatenate a range of cells.
If my first three cells look like this: A1 = Adam A2 = Bob A3 = Chris
I'd like cell A4 to say "AdamBobChris". I'm not worried about punctuation at this point. I thought I could just do =concatenante(A1:A3), but that's not working.
I have data in cells A1:A50. I want to combine all of them into cell A51. I know that I can achieve that by using =concatenate(A1,A2,A3,A4,........,A50) or =A1&A2&A3&A4&......&A50 but it would be very tiring to click on each cell. Just imagine if the data in cells A1:A1000? function that work like say =combine(A1:A50).
I cant quite get this, I have 4 cells in one row (a selection and can be any row), I need to string the values together and add some simple text.
Example:
Assume row 1 and columns A, B, C, D.
496 | 6d7 | Minor | Ø.375 +/-.010
What I need this to read as one long string:
#496, 6d7, Minor, Ø.375 +/-.010
Adding the text in Red.
Column A may be a single digit or up to 10 digits in length. Once the string is configured I want to copy it and manually paste in another application. If the string is placed any where else in the worksheet for formatting, it can be deleted after the copy/paste or macro end.
I have a macro to concatenate multiple cells but unfortunately it is not giving the result,
It has to concatenate below mentioned cells and put the result in column N
Sub ConcatColumns() Do While ActiveCell "" 'Loops until the active cell is blank. 'The "&" must have a space on both sides or it will be 'treated as a variable type of long integer. Range("N1").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _ "=CONCATENATE(RC[-10],RC[-9],RC[-8],RC[-7],RC[-6],RC[-5],RC[-1])& ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0)" ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select Loop End Sub
I have a spreadsheet of inventory items that I am trying to prepare to import into Quickbooks. There are items in this sheet that are subitems of a parent item. The subitems have the same ID number (col. C in the attached sample), different quantities and different descriptions than the parent.
I need to to concatenate the Item Lookup Code (col. D in example) and the description, separated by a colon. Then I need to copy everything else in the parent record, except quantity and description, into the child records. There are close to 20,000 items in this sheet.
I receive multiple worksheets containing transaction data with multiple numbers of row and columns. The data columns contain varying types of information like: price, quantity, location1, location2, loading dock, transaction date, buy/sell, purchaser, seller, currency unit, etc.
I have a need to concatenate into a single cell in a blank column, data from a number of cells in each row -- sometimes two cells, sometimes more. In some instances, I'd like to concatenate data for location1 and location2 with a delimiter like a semicolon-and-a-space to create a cell with: "location1; location2" Or in another instance, I'd like to concatenate multiple cells in a row, like: "location1; price; quantity; transaction date", etc.
I'm looking to create a macro that, with the cursor in a blank cell in a blank row, would open an input box, ask a user to select with the cursor the cells in the row to concatenate and then concatenate them into the blank cell in the row.
Ideally, the macro would populate the entire blank column with the concatenated data for the group of selected cells (from the same columns as in the row where the cells to be concatenated were selected) for each row where there is data. It is also possible that some cells in some rows of the selected columns would contain no data. In that case, I'd be looking to return just the delimiter, like: "location1; ; quantity; transaction date"
Right now, with no macro, I do it by hand like this:
To concatenate into cell I6, the contents of cells A6, B6, G6 and H6, I do a "=CONCATENATE(A6,"; ",B6,"; ",G6,"; ",H6)" in blank cell I6, but I'm looking for a way to do it fast in a macro that would fill in all of Column I.
I am trying to concatenate multiple lines of comments into one string and place that string in the comment field corresponding to the start of each record set. I believe the code below is close, but I am receiving this error
Run-time error '91': Object variable or with block variable not set
I have two columns - A and B. In column A there are blank cells and filled cells. There is a blank cell and after it - a variable number of filled cells, then a blank cell again and a variable number of filled cells. I am trying to concatenate the filled cells from column A into a single cell in column B, which is corresponding to the blank cell in column A. Values should be comma delimited.
For example: A2-blank; A3-27; A4-63; A5-blank; A6-31; A7-blank .. and in column B should be B2-27,63; B3-blank;B4-blank; B5-31,B6-blanc and etc.
I am trying to figure out how to Concatenate a group of cells if they contain a certain text. Basically I have a list of Architects in column A and the account name in column B... and I want to say Concatenate column A, IF column B=Specific Account (ex: Coca-Cola). The list will be added to frequently so the formula must refer to the entire columns, not just a certain range.
As of right now, only the first architect associated with each account will appear. I have attached a workbook with the example..
I currently have a spreadsheet that contains about 1700 lines of data related to ~400 different clients which I am looking to consolidate.
The data is currently in this format (a set like this repeated ~400 times with anywhere between 3 and 7 services):
Company ID # Company Name Service1
Company ID # Company Name Service2
Company ID # Company Name Service3
I would like to have the data in this format (one row per company with all of the services in the third column concatenated into a single cell, all while removing the duplicate rows.)
Company ID # Company Name Service1, Service2, Service3
How to create the code (or describe the process) necessary to do this?
In the workbook, 3 columns of importance Column N,S and AC. Concatenate order ("S"&"N"&"AC") - combine it and show value in column AG. Column AC has either 0 or any other number (50,60,100 etc). If it is 0 I need to insert an 'F' at the end of the code in column AG, any other numbr and i need an 'O'.
Column N has contract code, this will be in the middle, usually its alphabets like RF,EF, but sometimes numbers like 21,33, etc but when its a single digit number like 6, i need it changed to 06 (need the 0 infront). Column S has exchange codes, and this has to appear in the front of the code in Column AG. Same as Column N, if there is a single digit number then put a 0 infront of it.
