I am not sure if this is possible, but worth a shot. I am using a countif function to count a cells and I want it to count only if it has text, followed by a space then more text. I've been able to count the text only followed by a space, but cant figure in the more text part.
View 2 RepliesI have a name field that contains last name comma first name space parenthesis text parenthesis space parenthesis text (may have a space or hyphen within then a final parenthesis).
Examples:
Smith, John (MD) (Family Practice)
Brown, Alice (DO) (Oncology)
White, Joseph (MD) (OB/GYN)
I need to remove everything after the degree so that it looks like this:
Smith, John (MD)
Brown, Alice (DO)
White, Joseph (MD)
How can I do this?
I know different variations of this question get asked all the time... but I can't find an answer that I'm sure will *always* do what I want.
I have a range of cells (A1:A10), and I want to count all the text entries of positive length. That is to say, I don't want to count:
blanks
numbers
zeros
spaces
errors
I'm sure I need to use the LEN function, but I can't quite figure out how.
this counting expression will be inserted in a SUMPRODUCT formula
I found this code that import TAB delimited text file. I would like to import space delimited text file instead.
VB:
Option Explicit
Sub ReadTxtFiles()
Const conSpath As String = "C:"
[Code]....
I have been working on different formulas to return the text string between the first and last space and have been unsuccessful. Is this possible?
I have tried several combos or Left and Right, I have been able to get the values after the first space, and the values before the last space, but not between the spaces.
String: Y60
~C CULT NUCLEUS 3X2 SPRING WST BK XL
Desired results: D60
CULT NUCLEUS 3X2 SPRING WST BK
I have two words of differing character lengths separated by a space.
How can I remove the first word... essentially, all the charcters to the left of the space AND the space itself?
Count if cell contains text string
I have a list of animals and a list of countries they are found in so I wanted to count how many animals are found in each country.
So the count function =COUNTIF(E3:E202,"*" & "India" & "*") works perfectly to count how many have India listed as one of the countries.
But was wondering if there is a way to replace the criteria bit (ie the country name) with information from a cell.
So basically I have copied in a list of countries so I just want to use that as the criteria without having to manually input them all individually.
How count a cell that contains text, for example "ABC fundraiser day 1" by just searching for "ABC".
I need an if/then that says: "if cell F145 contains the text "ABC" then 1, if not 0.
Also, can you count cells by color coding? As in only if it contains the text "ABC" and is shaded green?
I've seen a lot of other posts on here regarding referencing a COUNTIF statement to a cell instead of a value (like this: =COUNTIF(B7:E7,"<=" & B10), but need to do it for text instead of numbers. This is basically what I've got:
A
B
C
Missy 342
Missy
4
[Code].....
Column B is created using a search function, and returning only the Missy or Mike, (using a search function, which I know how to do), and then I want the counts to populate in column C based on how many times either Missy or Mike pops up in the range.
Problem is, when I try and write a formula like =COUNTIF($D$2:$D$9,VALUE(E2)) it doesnt work, but if I put in =COUNTIF($D$2:$D$9,"*Missy*") it works (of course).
Is there any way to get it to reference the text in the cell since the text in the search criteria will constantly change?
I have multiple items (Country Names) in cells exported from another database with what appear to be delimiters (semicolons) that cannot be counted. I want to count the number of items (Countries) separated by the delimiters. Is there a simple way to do this?
Column 1 fields:
TAIWAN, PROVINCE OF CHINA;
BELGIUM;HUNGARY;SWEDEN;ITALY;POLAND;SLOVAKIA;
CANADA;
BELGIUM;HUNGARY;SWEDEN;ITALY;POLAND;SLOVAKIA;CANADA;
INDIA;BRAZIL;DENMARK;GREECE;POLAND;MOLDOVA, REPUBLIC OF;HUNGARY;UNITED STATES;UNITED KINGDOM;
Result needed in Column 2:
2
6
1
7
9
What is the formula needed to get the Column 2 result?
a formula that will count the txt chars in a cell example ie "aa99" result would be 2 or "aa99aa" equals 4

I would like a to create a function in one cell that counts the unique text values in column A, but only when there is a corresponding 1 in column B. So the answer in the above example would be 4 (Apples, Bananas, Donut, Egg).
Trying to create a button that, once clicked performs the following task:
Checks whether the text in a cell in the column X2:X40 matches the text in a cell in the Range A2:U14.
If it does, the formatting of the cell in X2:X40 (eg background) must change to match that of the corresponding cell in A2:U14.
Only 1 cell in the range will match 1 cell in the column
For example:
Before click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a clear background
During click:
matches these cells
changes X4 so that it also has a yellow background
After click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
I have 2 tabs in a 2013 workbook. Inventory Receipts and lookups. One of the Data verification lookups I have is a drop down list in each cell in Column B (eg: Cat, Dog, Mouse) In the lookups tab I have another cell range containing the sounds (eg: Meow, Bark, Squeak).
What I am trying to acheive is, if B2 contains Cat, then return Meow in B3, if B2 contains Dog then return bark in b3 and if B2 contains Mouse return squeak in B3. Ideally I would like the formula to return the text from my lookup sheet (eg: 'Lookups'!C2,'Lookups'!C3,'Lookups'!C4). So depending on which option they choose from my animal drop down list .. the correct noise would automatically fill in.
I have four cells that contain text. All have connected check boxes with TRUE FALSE.
I need to be able to select anyone one of these cells with a check box, and have it's text appear in one separate cell eg: A1.
I have no issue connecting check boxes etc. I have no issue reproducing the text from any of these cells into multiple cells with a check box. But they have to be selectable and reproducing in one cell only (eg"A1").
I only want to remove one space at the end of my text within a cell, if there is a space.
Code:
Sub hth()
Dim c As Range
For Each c In Range("H1", Range("H" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
c.Value = Trim(c.Value)
Next c
End Sub
I need a formula which I am using to count instance of sickness. I include a sample copy of my data which I hope will make my request clearer! I'm currently using the below formula to count the number of continuous instances of any code starting with "SICK" =(SUMPRODUCT((LEFT(C$10:C$37,4)="SICK")*(LEFT(C$10:C$37,4)<>(LEFT(C$10:C$37,4)))))
I would also like this formula to count any code starting with LTS as well (Long Term Sick). Due to the nature of sickness there may be continuous periods where both SICK and LTS codes are used, at the moment I can not come up with a formula to return the value I need. These columns may contain other codes but for simplicities sake I have only shown the relavent ones.
I need to count the number of Carriage returns in a string of text in a group of merged cells also I need to add a carriage return after the 1024 character because I have the wrap text on. My overall goal is have copy text fit into a group of merged cells without any being cut off by excel.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using Excel to tabulate votes for a contest. Judges have given a number to each entry, and but certain judges' opinions need to count twice as much as other judges' opinions based on their qualifications.
I've attached the file to help illustrate what I'm trying to do. Morris's votes need to count twice for all Photography or Web Design entries, and Clark's votes need to count twice for all Graphic Design or Web Design entries.
I know I can do this manually by simply copying the number into a blank cell in another column (like the blank column between Morris and Clark's names), but is there any way to make Excel do this for me?
As per title, I am trying to compare a column of text cells which contain "Yes" or are empty and a columns of numbers. If they are "Yes" and "1" on the same row, I want to output an "OK" message. Excel seems happy with the following code but it does not work and returns an empty cell if the two conditions are true.

Here's an interesting one:
A1 contains a text string which is both bold and unbold (
B1 is blank
I need a macro which scans the cells with text and copies the BOLD portions of the text string into the adjacent cell.

Is there any method to speed up a for each loop to count text in a cell with multiple criterias in a single column. This is on example:
Code:
For each rr in r
If rr = "a" And rr.Font.Strikethrough = False Or rr = "B" _
And rr.Font.Strikethrough = False Then
a = a + 1
end if
next
One has numbers the other has "YES" or is blank. I want a formula to look at the second column and where there is a "Yes" then count the number in the same row in the first column.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a list of text quotes in column A. I then have column B which will have a Y entered if the quote is used in a presentation. I currently have around 100 quotes.
On a separate sheet, I want to be able to effectively say in one cell - If column B has text in it, copy the quote from column A. But the difficult part is how do I make this happen so that I can have multiple quotes being pulled into one cell?
is there a formula that will find a word in a sentence written in a cell and if present then enter specif text in another cell? for example, if the word "Hotel" appears in the sentence in cell A5 then put in the text "Hotel and subsistence" in cell B5...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get something like - If a cell contains certain text AND certain text then display set text OR If a cell contain certain text AND certain text then display set text.
For example:
Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Petrol = vauxhall corsa petrol
Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Deisel = vauxhall corsa Deisel
Vauxhall Nova 1 litre Petrol = vauxhall nova petrol
So it the formula is effectively searching for the car type and the fuel type and then returning the relevant set text. So far I'ver only been able to find IF functions criteria to identify one feature of the text.
I'm thinking it's got to be variation on =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol") but there should be something else in there like =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa"&"Petrol",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol")
I know this is wrong but just trying illustrate my thinking. I need it to pick up vauxhall corsa AND petrol. I understand that I would have to stick a lot of IF functions together in a string, but that is fine as long as I can ask it to pick certain text AND certain text within a cell.
I am trying to figure E.g. when A1 is empty i want it to equal a text.
A1 has a text "Quote No" in it permanently until other text is put in
Purpose so that they people know where to enter the applicable text.
I have in Column A (quantity varies A1....An) a list of strings (i.e. file names NameX.txt and in column C I have a long string that contains many file names separated by ; that I extracted from the file name in Column A. what I want to do is to search column C individual text (file names) against the file names in column A. If the file exist in column A, then color only that text (file name) in column C. and so on.

I have some text in a cell, which is longer than the width that I am going to make that cell. When I don't wrap the text, it cuts it off at the end of the cell.
Since each column represents a day in a calendar, it would be incorrect to merge the two cells, but I don't want the text hidden, since I need to print the final product.
It is non-numeric text, and i've pasted --> values to remove formula issues.
