Count Letters In Cells
Feb 18, 2010
I have a spreadsheet filled with either "B" or "S" in cells. Its 500 rows long (starts from row 2) and its 839 columns wide, but the cells begin to be filled with B and S after column 11. I would like to count all B's and all S's in each column, and add them....it works for B;s as it counts them up and spits the result in row 503, just as it is supposed to. But the counter for S, does not work.

I have a sheet that has various data in the range of cells from B1 to Q80.
In these cells are various letters, numbers, etc. In some cells, the letter "L" appears not at all, sometimes once, sometimes multiple times.
I need a formula (or another method), that counts the number of times "L" appears in the range of B1 to Q80 (and not outside this range). Unfortunately, COUNTIF wont do the trick since sometimes in a single cell, "L" appears multiple times and would get counted only once.
I prefer a formula, because I have to do the same thing for the letters D, H, O, M, C, U, K.... I figure I could just copy/paste and modify slightly for each letter I'm trying to count the instances of. Unless of course there's an easier method.

I am trying to use SUMPRODUCT on one of my excel files. the condition is that it will try to count all those cells that contain certain letters. i tried using this formula, =SUMPRODUCT(--('All Computers'!$A$2:$A$100000="USA*"),--('All Computers'!$E$2:$E$100000="June")), but I am getting a 0 value.

I am trying to count the number of certain letters in a given cell. I figured out the formula when there is not a repeat of a targeted letter. For example, if multiple C's appear in cell A1 I will only get a value of 1 and not the exact number.
Here is my formula.
=COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*C*")+COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*P*")+COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*E*")+COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*L*")+COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*O*")

Is it possible to assign values to letters (eg. a=1, b=2, c=3... z=26) and then count the total sum of those letters in a cell
Example
A1= car
car is c=3 + a=1 + r=18 which would make the total to be shown in A2 3+1+18=22
With this code i would like to create a subtotal of all letters per row and a batch total of the column with subtotal.

I have a column of numbers and want to make sure everything has been entered correctly from our scanning software. Basically, I want to automatically highlight any cell that has any letter in it (e.g. z12o2 instead of 21202 or R705 instead of 5705), ignoring any cells that contain only numbers. I haven't had any luck using conditions based on formulas like =ISTEXT.

I'm working on a function that will sum a row of cells containing letters and numbers. I am currently using :
=SUMPRODUCT((0&SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(B5:S5,"T",""),"TP",""),"TPE",""),"P",""))+0) as my base.
Right now the formula will work with T, TP, and P; however as soon as I type TPE I get #value.
Either way you get the point of what I am trying to do, however my cells can contain any one of the following combinations:
T,TP,TPE
P,PE,
E

Why does this work:
Code:
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$1:$J$10"
but not this?
Code:
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(10, 10))

i have a list of 2000 fields which have the same format IE "AB10014"
I need to remove the "AB" from every field and leave the #.
Besides putting a space and running text to columns I'm not sure how.

Only have upper case letters.
I am trying to get certain cells to only have upper case letters.
each cell in the code will have a single letter typed in.
I would rather have it as an event code (change while it is typed), but I have not grasped the whole thing yet.
This code does not give me any errors, but it is not changing the lower case letters into upper case letters either.

I need to format a column of numbers so that it will sort alphanumerically.
All the numbers have 4 digits, and some of them have an extra letter on the end eg A B C
How can I custom format the column so that I get the numbers in order and the letters in sequence with them?

In col A I have various text codes in no particular order: i.e.cell A2 is PM-A01, cell A3 is BTC05, cell A4 is PM-B00, etc. The first two positions are always alphabetic. I want to sum all the numbers in column B whose adjacent column A text starts with "PM".
I tried =IF(match("PM*",A2:A100,0),b2,"") but just get "NA"

Log sheet Col a = Dates
Col d = Route ( Letters and numbers)
Col F = Times (1.2-2.3- examples)
Log sheet has 1,550 rows +
How I have been finding total for the Last 12 months is the formula below
=SUMIF(LOG!A:A,">="&TODAY()-365,LOG!F:F)
Now what I would like to try and do is the same BUT.
using COL D (on LOG sheet) to find out when I went to for example "JTF"
be advised that COL D is a route, so there are many results in each cell in col d..
So examples below
COL F On Log sheet
OERT-JPF-JMF-ASG1-JTF
OERT-JTF-JTF-ADC17-ADC17-ARAB3-ARAB3-DHAMC-JSK
OERT-JTF-JTF-ASG1-R655-JPF-JMF-LCL-JTF
OERT-JTF-JTF-R655-DHAMC-HAW-DHMAC
OERT-JTF-JTF-JTF-HI4-HI4-R655-ADC38-RS55-ES76-JPF-JMF-JPF-JMF
OERT-JTF-JTF-HI4-R655-ADC38-ES76-PMT-FLIGHT TOUR VIPS

I have an excel sheet here with the data as
1.0 Develop Vision and Strategy
1.1 Define the business concept and long-term vision
1.1.1 Assess the external environment
1.1.1.1 Analyze and evaluate competition
1.1.1.2 Identify economic trends
1.1.1.3 Identify political and regulatory issues
1.1.1.4 Assess new technology innovations
1.1.1.5 Analyze demographics
.... etc
I need to split this into two columns column A should contain 1.0 and column B should contain Develop Vision and Strategy . Ex: 1.1.1.2 Identify economic trends in column A then column B - 1.1.1.2 column C - Identify economic trends.

I have a sheet with part numbers, costs and wish to add varying number to the cost in each row, based on a certain aspect of the part number:
A
B
C
[Code].....
In the example, 01/1X/2X/3X are the differentiating aspects of the part number. To rows in column A containing 01 (preceding the dash) I want to add nothing, 1X+.75,2X+1.5,3X+9.
I have researched the nested IF formula and can use it in a test as long as column A contains either numbers or letters. The problem I have is because there is both numbers and letters, the logical argument won't validate "if true". Here is my formula (omitting my attempts with parenthesis etc. around the letter in the logical argument):
=IF(IF(A1=1X,B1+.75,IF(A1=2X,B1+1.5,IF(A1=3X,B1+9,B1)))

The code brings up the message box the way I need it to
At the bottom of the code in the standard module is what I changed.
In the message box. If the GDT button is clicked the GDT chart opens. If the Symbol button is clicked the Symbol chart opens. This all works.
But will I select a symbol from the symbols chart it will appear in the cell that is double clicked. but then end up as a letter instead of a symbol.
But, the gdt chart works perfect.
I thought Cancel = True Would do the trick but does not. Any ideas what is missing??
This code below is in the sheet module
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClicK(ByVal Target As range, Cancel As Boolean)
ThisWorkbook.Unprotect
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
With Application
Cancel = True............

I'm trying to write a macro that will find a value beginning "ber" and paste it across to a different column. I have had a go at it but I keep getting the offset flagged up.
It needs to move 15 columns across and 7 rows down if that is of any importance.

I have 7 cells containing strings but not numbers on a row.
Now I want to list out all the combinations of drawing out 3 cells out of these 7 cells while the remaining cells that haven't been drawn out could also be listed out one column next to the drawn cells.
For example, I got 7 cells like this.
A B C D E F G (each letter in ONE cell)
And I want to list out all the combinations like this:
ABC DEFG
ABD CEFG
ABE CDFG
ABF CDEG
etc.
For more details, please refer to the attached sample (an .xls file being zipped).

I have column of cells containing entries such as V1, V3 and V7. I'm trying (and failing) to come up with a formula to separate the numbers from the letters and add them together: V1, V3 and V7 would together give 11.
I can use the MID worksheet function to separate my numbers from my letters on a row-by-row basis, but I can't work out how to do the whole thing in one fell swoop. =SUM(MID(A1:A10,2,2)) doesn't work, for example.

Is there a VBA command to get the letters, instead of the numbers, of the column of a selected cell?
I have to letter a list whihc means setting up a loop using character codes.
I may have to go into double letters so I am working on how I would set up the loop for if and when it gets past 90 and starts on double letters. so far the highest is the letter "U"
of course the easiest would be to pick up a column value as a letter
NT values do not get a number
A_____ _____NT###
B_____1_______C####
C_____2_______RMK###
D____ _______NT####
i am guessing the loop might involve some arithmetic test between the count and the character set 65-90. or maybe a mod thing.

I am trying to code a macro that will search through a selected range of cells for key letters, for instance this cell may contain any combination of B, C, Te, Tc, RH, or LH. I would preferably like to search with capitalization being a factor but it is not a deal breaker. Below is a sample of what i have if the cell has a B, C it works for B but ignores the C i need it t o recognize both.
Code:
If InStr(1, ActiveCell.Text, "B") Then Range("O" + CStr(ActiveCell.Row)).Select
With Selection.Interior
.Pattern = xlSolid
.PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.color = 65535
.TintAndShade = 0
.PatternTintAndShade = 0

I need to count the number of equal cells in col D beginning at the top of the column. The counted cells must begin with a text prefix of "Category:" without the quotes.
Some but not all of the cells in col D begin with a prefix of "Category:" without the quotes, followed by a word or words following the word "Category:" See examples below. All of the terms prefixed with "Category:" in col D are in alphabetical order. I need to count the number of identical cells in col D with the "Category:" prefix.
Examples of the contents of cells in col D with the "Category:" prefix are as follows:
Category: Adversity
Category: Answers
Category: Assurance
Category: Blessings
Category: Build
Category: Change
Category: Children
Category: Choices
Cells above and below cells with a prefix of "Category:" in col D are not adjacent.Cells above and below cells with a prefix of "Category:" in col D are separated by 3 to an undermined number of rows.
I need to count the number of equal cells in col D and insert the count in col A at the last equal term. For example, col A above would have 93, 1, 1, 5, 10, 8, 3, and 12 inserted into col A.
