I have a file with four sheets – File1, File2, Association and LookList. File1&2 are totalled, as is Association sheet but then are checked against each other using the totals. What I need to do is the following (but I am not sure how to do it using macro…)
Step 1 - ‘File1’ Sheet – It all comes in text format. Firstly, convert all of column B=>used range (it may vary to 40k records!) into numbers and total each column.
(I know the principal behind it – have a total variable for ColB, loop through and when it finds >0 then increment buy one and output under the last cell in that column – but I do not know the macro code)
Step 2 - ‘File2’ Sheet – Again, it's in text format. Firstly, convert all of column B=>used range into numbers and total each column(would contain same amount of records
as Step1!) .
Step 3 - ‘Association’ – same steps as for File 1 (again – same number of records).
Step 4 - THEN (and I have NO IDEA how to do this!...) I need to check the File1 & File2 against Association using the lookup and return the Serial number and the Association heading that does not match on a fourth sheet.
The problem is that – for example – Field-1 consists total of more than one column – contains 3 but could contain a total of up to 6 columns! - I understand excel formula ‘vlookup’ but am not sure how to do it when it is a combination of columns and even less when applying it to this! – In fact, for a macro I am not even sure what column format the lookup list should be!
Following is the master data that's imported from weekly timesheet.
DeptProjNoProjNameEmployee Dept170000Project1Shawn Johnson Dept170000Project1Brenda Larry Dept260010Project2Patrick Leh Dept170010Project3Shawn Johnson
When imported, the 'ProjNo' is stored in Text format. Now when forecast data is appended to master table, the ProjNo stores as Numbers. I would like to know how I can automatically convert it into Text. The number of records varies every time when imported from the Timesheet.
The other thing is I need AutoFill 'APPROVED' in Column 5 from 2nd row to the last row.
I have a document passed to me that includes information pulled from an internal system.
I want to use some basic formulas to show Totals, averages etc.
However, the SUM function does not work on the data provided unless I select the cell (As if to edit the text) and the press enter.
Is there a quicker way of selecting all of the cells in Column A for example and performing this function on mass, rather than selecting each cell individually.
I have attahced a similar sample copy - My SUM formula is show in cell B15.
I have attached two files, one the sample txt file imported to excel but the top area is highlighed with some notes and section break. RED deleted don't need amd un highlighted is actual data. The other file is what I would like to see the data look like after parse.
I need to clean out unnecessary data from a file, (see attached text file), I'm not sure how to go about this in excel. basically every file starts with 9 cells that needs to be deleted, two cells of real data then one with garbage that needs to be deleted, it goes like that for 40 cells, then again 10 cells of garbage that needs to be deleted, then 40 of real data and goes like that up to 3000 lines, I know it sounds confusing but if you take a look at attached file, at the end I need to have all cells full of data
I need to bring in 2600 student names from a cvs file and have it formatted to an Excel workbook.
When it imports into the Excel file I need it to populate the proper boxes, such as: StudentLastName StudentFirstName StudentID GradeLevel TeacherName TeacherID RoomNumber
I have the CVS attached. Hope I can get this done. As you can see it shows the teacher's name with their first initial, their teacher number that they are identified by and their room number. I need the student ID as well but not the phone number and the days of the week. This would save a lot of work.
I have a very large spreadsheet that comes out of SAP and it brings out the majority of cell entries as text ie putting a ' at the begining of any number. the problem that i have is with the cells that have a date in them ie '19/04/07. I have tried varioous methods to remove this and turn the cells into date format but to no avail.
Also i do not get the option to convert text to number
I want macro which export each excel column to new text file. The data in excel file is number. The column has only 5 rows that means each new text file should contain five lines of one column. It looks simple but couldn't manage to do macro for it. I have very big data set in one excel file, and have to be splitted into text files. The file name in new text files can be any kind as long as it can be in some sort of order for each export.
I import date information in text format and need to add to the date. My date info in in column "J" and in Column "K" I would desire to write a formula that allows me to to the following. My data looks like this in text: yyyymmdd
I desire to look in column "E" and I have 3 different variables. "J", "K", "L". If column "E" has a j add 30 to the years; K add 35 years and L add 38 years. for Example: 19630923 j = 19930923 k = 19980923 L = 20010923
how to word it but if someone understands then please help. I have two excel data files namely Book1.xls & Book2.xls. Both files have different data in it. Both files contain macros. When these macros run the files become **FINALIZED** version.
Originally, I get the above files in my email as txt. attachments. I then move these two txt files to my desktop in a folder called Folder-1. Then I open these files as an Excel and save them.
Basically, I need to know if two txt files are sitting in a folder-1 on my desktop. What can I do or what can I clik that....those two text files get converted into excel automatically, including running that macro I talked about in the above paragrah.
To put it differently, if I have two txt files Book1.txt, Book2.txt in a folder, how can I automatically create an excel **FINALIZED**version which sits right next to their txt version.
I have a .txt file which i need to convert using text to columns in excel, obviously this is simple, however my .txt file is 325000+ rows of data
Is there anyway I can Excel can cope with this amount of data, I know that my row limitation is 65536, can i spread the data across multiple sheet tabs?
I want to convert the excel file into text document with out changing it file type
for example
in the wordpad i have the text document in this type "Candy","1253563"
I want this to be open in excel and i can open in the excel using delimited option but i want only to change the number "1253563" and i can use autoofilter to filter and i want to change the number "1253693" in the excel and i want that excel should open in the format of text document without any change as i mentioned before
it should open in this format
"Candy","1253693" only the number should change and this action is repeated for many numbers
I'm working on a sheet to analyse data in .CSV format, sofar I can import the .CSV file correctly, however I would like the Macro to name the sheet with same name as the .CSV file.
As i'll be importing multiple .CSV files. The code I have sofar is:
I need a VBA code to create a Text file which should be in the form of DML (my scenario is to get Insert Statements for the Data available in the Excel) from Excel Sheet. And this has to be done by assigning a macro to command button where by clicking on it the DML text file should be generated. Even the syntax for the scenario will do.
I've created a spreadsheet which, on running a macro, imports data from a text file, formats it and then sums various parts of it giving me a subset of the large file as a range of data for a chart (a pie chart) on Sheet 2.
The problem begins when I delete the data in the worksheet in preparation for another import - the Pie chart just loses all the data and I have to manually reselect it in the chart each time.
Once deleted the chart is blank, but as soon as the data is imported, I get reference errors when I click on Sheet 2
I must be doing something wrong. You can delete data and repopulate it and the chart should pick up with the new data. If the cells it is referencing are empty, it is blank. Not so here.
Is it to do with importing the data? Or the formula for my chart data?
I have a code that import a txt file to an existing sheet, and works perfectly. I also have a ComboBox named "txtstorey" where users select the level they are working on, ie Ground Floor, Forst Floor etc.
I need to add in a VBA code that add the level that is selected in the cells on the same spreadsheet
For example, the current code import the data like this (It places the data at "$C$1"

I have opened a .txt (by right clicking and selecting Open with rather than open from within Excel) file with numbers using the format 1,234,567.00 but in my country we use 1 234 567,00. So I created a macro changing the , into "" and the . into , and it works fine while creating the macro itself (by using the macro recorder) and the numbers shows and behaves like numbers. However, when running the macro on a new file some numbers remain as text whereas others are numbers. Theres is no common string, eg that numbers starting with - (minus) remains text.
It does then not matter if I go to the format function and select number with decimals and thousand dividor - the number still remains as text. I have also tried the suggested multply by 1 but it still remains as text. The only thing that helps is to either double click on the number or use the Konvert text to number. But I would then have to click each number in the whole table which is what I wanted to avoid.
I have a number of large CSV files with approximately 1.9 million rows, (this is more then excel can bring in). I typically have to import/delimit the files when brining them into excel. However, when I try this I get the message not all data imported. I would like to be able to split the records in the csv file to multiple tabs in the excel woorkbook when doing the import/delimit but do not know how to accomplish this. The delimit of the data varies each time due to the nature of the data so doing a macro is more trouble to create each time. Currently I am having to open the csv file in notepad and split it up into multiple files then import each new file seperately.
The problem i'm having is that these data downloads come off the server like this:
01/14/08
so i'm getting the green triangle error "text date with 2 digit year"
with the option to covert it to 19xx or 20xx.
I have to manually select this text and select 20xx before it is recognized by excel for what it is. only after this is the conditional format rule processed, and my 5 day old dates turn their appropriate colors.
When i set up a macro record while i do this date conversion, it does not record any command for this conversion.
Is there any code i can enter that will automatically do this conversion process for me without having to do it by hand?
I immediately began having problems with formulas and pivot tables when I began importing data from an offsite postgreSQL database. For example, "countif" and "sumproduct" formulas invariably return values of 0. I can create pivot tables from the imported data, but nothing with a numerical value will group.
After fighting with this for literally hours, I finally noticed that all numbers in the columns were on the left side of the column meaning that the numerical data is being imported into Excel as text, even though the columns in the spreadsheet into which the data is imported are in number format.
Any way either to import numbers as numbers from the postgreSQL database, or to convert text to numbers after the data is imported.
I have imported a jpeg image into Excel but can not figure out how to move it to the "back" so I can add text on top of it. When I make it a "background", it makes duplicate backgrounds when I only want one. Is this the only way and if so, how do I set it so that I only have one image in the workbook?
I have a text file I am importing and using text-to-colums.
Some of the text is "+TOL" "-TOL" and when excel converts to columns it is forcing the text to a formula "=+Tol" "=-Tol" giving me #NAME? in those cells.
I can format the cells as text, which is fine for now since I'm using VBA, but if I need to use any formulas then I'm SOL...
I am importing some data from an in house system. This data includes a date, which is imported as text. I have tried to reformat it using the date format options, but this does not work. The date is required as part of a lookup, and whilst it is formatted as text, the lookup does not work.
