Create An Alphanumeric Sequence
Sep 14, 2009
I want to create a 4 character alphanumeric sequence. The sequence is to be like this: a1a1-z10z10. If it's a number, increment 1 until you reach 10, then move to the next column, if it's a letter, increment a until z, then move to the next column. Excel's autofill feature doesn't seem to work well for me due to the letters involved, so if someone has a macro handy that would be great.

I'm looking to populate a series of sequential codes based on a code prefix.
Sheet 1: Master Code list
Column A = Lookup Value
Column B = Code Prefix
Sheet 2 - Results page
Column A - list of lookup values - sorted in value order - The number of occurances varies for each value
Column B - Results list
I want to populate Column B in the second sheet with a sequential code list for each different value in column A. So for the first value it would have the prefix then proceed numerically (Prefix0001, Prefix0002, Prefix0003...) then for the next value its prefix in sequence (2ndPrefix0001, 2ndPrefix0002, 2ndPrefix003...), etc
I'm wondering if there is a way to do this all in one step or else if there is a way way to number each occurance of the lookup value in the second page, in which case the code can be concatenated easily by a lookup of the code.
I suppose on the back of this there is another query - is there a way to concatenate a number where the format is 000# where the concatenated value will retain the leading zeros? I've been trying and it is stripping them out.

I would like to use an excel spreadsheet to generate a series of passwords. The password must include alphanumeric content, and be at least 10 characters long, and case sensitive.
For example: 14sH2dA456a
Thought about concatenting each variable, but do not know how to control the random variable creation in a spreadsheet?
I have looked at RAND but can't figure out how to use it to any avail?

Creating a sequence in every column? It should look like this:
Original matrix (Top left cell is "A1"):
40 50 60
30 10 20
70 20 0
And I want to replace it with:
2 3 3
1 1 2
3 2 1
I need to create an ascending sequence of numbers in every column. First column contains: 40, 30, 70. That's why its ascending sequence is: 2, 1, 3.
Btw, I got N rows and M columns.

I need to automatically populate a column with an alphanumeric MFR0001 to MFR9999 and am currently using the formula below to add 1 to the start point (A1)...
A1=MFR0001
Formula in A2 =LEFT(C1,3)&(RIGHT(C1,4)+1)
This works perfectly if I start at MFR1000, but breaks and drops the 000 if I use it on the number I need to start with (MFR0001).

sequence has random number of rows , each sequence is seperated with a blank
cell (the result of a formula) some sequences have zerrows included.
I need to find the lowest number in each sequence and put that number in
column
" B" I also need to find the highest number and put that number in column "
C"
eg:- A B C

My question is, a formula was provided to me that add's a comma and a space after a 15 digit sequence of numbers, that formula is:
=IF(MID(C378,LEN(C378)-1,1)="W",C378&" ,",C378)
And what that does is it would change data in a cell that looks like this
01-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-06-W2
To this:
01-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-06-W2 ,
The formula works great, thanks to the help of the posters!
However I just ran into an issue, what if I have a set of data in a cell that looks like this:
01-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2
02-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2
03-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2
And I need a space and a comma at the end of each sequence, so the above would change to this after the formula is applied:
01-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2 ,
02-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2 ,
03-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2 ,
Now the data in the cell is wrapped so it lists one set of numbers, then the next set, then the next set as seen above.

I'm trying to write some code to calculate the value of a Fibonacci Sequence, at a random point in the sequence.
For example if I have 5, 15, 30, 50, 75, 105... and my random value is 3 it would return 30.
Being new to VB the only way I've of thought of to do this is a massive if then statement.

I have a dynamic worksheet containing a variable number of rows that I would like to have automatically numbered when I run my VBA script. I used Dave Hawley's code as follows, with a modification to begin at cell A2, but it doesn't seem to work, as it only numbers cell A2 and not the rest.
VB:
With Range("A2")
.Value = 1
.AutoFill .Range("A2:A" & RowTotal), xlLinearTrend
.Range("A" & RowTotal + 1).Clear
End With
RowTotal is just a variable that holds the results of a simple last row finder. How to make this work?

I'm trying to automate a sequence.
I was gonna explain it but I couldn't make myself clear so I took a screenshot:
sequence.PNG
folder_type is what the user types, (for example, the letter "A"), and folder_code is a sequence that should auto-generate according to what was manually inserted in the folder_type field.
What formula could I use for this process?

formula that will produce the number sequence as shown in the third column of the table. The sequence starts at 1 and if the colour changes then the number is 2 and if the colour changes again then the number is 3 and so on. The part I'm having difficulty with is that if the name in the first column changes then the sequence must reset to the number 1 and become 2,3 etc. as above when the colour changes.

So my first worksheet' name is 3114
My macro is : [Code] ..........
And I don't know what I have to put after Name = ... to obtain the sequence, what means that the next worksheet is 3115, the next one 3116 etc.

I have cells O1 to O300 numbers in random sequences of no more than 10
I need to average the 5 highest numbers in each sequence eg:
O P
1 2 16 (result)
2 20
3 4
4 6
5 14
6 12
7 8
8 10
9 16
10 18
11 blank cell
12 15 9 (result)
13 3
14 6
15 12
16 9
17 blank cell
18 blank cell
19 4 23 (result)
20 16
21 20
22 40
23 8
24 11
25 28
26 blank cell
down to 300 rows, the sequence of numbers can be from 1 to 10 but never
more than 10
I got a function : =IF(COUNT(O1:O10>=10,AVERAGE(LARGE(O1:O10,{1,2,3,4,5})),"
") but that works only for 10 numbers and not for less

I have a problem, I have a formula which counts the number of instances that occur and assigns the value as 1 for every instance, however I want the formual to also recognise that if a number of instances occur in succession a value of 1 should also be assigned.
E.g. if a person is absent for 1 day the formula assigns a value of 1
if a person is off for 3 days in succession the formula assigns a value of 1

I have two sheets in excel, one contains a list of names and the second is a basic lookup sheet for mail merge purposes.
Basically I want to write a formula in column A (of sheet 2) [current formula is =LabelNames!A2] and in column B the formula is =LabelNames!A3.
I want to drag these formulas down so each one jumps by 2... Ie:
=LabelNames!A2
=LabelNames!A4
=LabelNames!A6

I want the numbers to increase based on the labels from a list, such as the first john chosen will get a 1 on the first cell on sheet 2, if john is chosen again the 2nd john will get a 2 on the next cell on sheet 2 and so on for the other names.
I tried to use IF(COUNTIF(D:D,D2)=1,LARGE(IF(D:D=D2,E:E)+1),1) but it didn't work out.

I need a macro, preferably a "sub" that will search a long text input and when it finds the first instance of the letters "GSH" in that order removing all previous text before it. The amount of text characters, letters, and order before the gsh will vary.
For example:
FGHYTIUGSHIYKIOLHY --> GSHIYKIOLHY
