Data Converted To Scientific Notation
Nov 3, 2008
I work for a company that exports data from a website into Excel.
So here's my problem:
The data is usually Part Numbers using numbers and letters. When a Part Number is, for example, 248E12 we have this reaccurring issue. Importing it into Excel automatically converts it to scientific notation (ie. 248E+12 or 2.48E+14 to be exact). "Format Cell" doesn't convert it back because it was auto-converted when "exported". I need a way of fixing this problem without going line by line and doing the math to convert it myself.
I don't have time for that. Some of my files have thousands of lines.

I'm trying to filter a long list to look for specific employee numbers. The employee numbers are so long that they have to be formatted as text or they are automatically formatted as scientific notation (they are 18 digits long). For some reason this is causing the filter not to work properly.
Employee ID
006010000000000661
006015000000000082
006015000000000319
006015000000000319
006015000000000552
006010000000000370
006010000000000370
006015000000000921
006010000000000503
006015000000000835
006015000000000834
006015000000000689
006010000000000391
006010000000000391
006010000000000030
006010000000000030

I have a large file with account numbers in Number format. Before I can import the data into a database the account numbers need to be converted to Text. I use Text(A1,0) to do this in a large file. The data then gets copied into a new Import file. When the data gets copied the account cell reverts back to scientific notation for the long account strings. The import file account column is formated for Text. The only fix is to then double click on each account that is in scientific notation to convert it back to text.
Is there another text formula I can use?

I run a macro that imports a table from web page:
[url]
I import only the table with no formatting.
Excel tries to be helpful, and formats some of the cells in scientific notation.
I have tried to format the column to the "Text" format prior to the import with
Columns(2).NumberFormat = "@"
This does not work. If you import the table you can see that rows 1405, 1406, 1407, 1408 all have the same scientific notation value. Their true values should be 0E0, 0E4, 0E8, 0E9 respectively.
There are quite a few other instances in the column when a text value has "E" for the second character that Excel will format on its own.

I need to have all of my number be "x10^-6", but Excel wants to make them, for instance, 7.66x10^-3, when I need it to read "7660x10^-6". How can I force excel to do this?

I am attempting to enter Timestamp data from a movie in this format:
minute:second.millisecond
When I enter a frame timestamp of 18 minutes, 42 seconds, and 5 milliseconds, excel auto formats this data to 12:18:43AM.
This is not what I want. I have attempted multiple types of cell formats in an attempt to enter this data without auto formatting. One requirement for the format is the ability to subtract two of the times for a change in time measurement. I have tried every setting under the "Time" format list, as well as custom formats, which fail to subtract.

I want some vbs code on my 'Copy All' button in Email Data sheet which will do my work. Its a bit lengthy but who knows the concept will find it easy.
I have one sheets -
Sheet attached - Worksheet .xlsm
Workshet.xlsm [Data in 'Mod' sheet i)should convert from text to column and paste in 'Row Data' sheet ii) then transfer form Row Data sheet to 'Email Data' sheet 'Mobile Data' sheet and 'Other Data' sheet when Copy All button is clicked in Email Data sheet.
There should be some logic which will fetch appropriate date from 'Mod' sheet to the respective sheet . We can have some kind of logic like
If 'Register' found then take the value of register and workstation and paste in Email Data sheet.
All data below should be fetched from Row Data sheet which is blank now and will get the data when we click the Copy All button ,
1st Register Count:
Below Register Count (*) i.e. 16 If workstation count present copy to E15 in Email Data sheet in Table B
Below Register Count (*) i.e. 9 If register count present copy to E16 in Email Data sheet Table B
2nd Register Count:
Below Register Count (*) i.e. 8942 If workstation count present copy to C15 in Email Data sheet in Table B
Below Register Count (*) i.e. 2883 If register count present copy to C16 in Email Data sheet in Table B
3rd Register Count:
Below Register Count (*) i.e. 0 If workstation count present copy to E18 in Email Data sheet in Table B
Below Register Count (*) i.e. 1 If register count present copy to E19 in Email Data sheet in Table B
4th Register Count:
Below Register Count (*) i.e. 98 If workstation count present copy to C18 in Email Data sheet in Table B
Below Register Count (*) i.e. 999 If register count present copy to C19 in Email Data sheet in Table B
Substr:
B32:B44 will be pasted in C29:C41 in Email Data sheet in Table C
i.e. 10 to 22 values should match in corresponding 10 to 22 values in Email Data sheet , if not not any value then 0
B50:B62 will be pasted in B29:B41 in Email Data sheet in Table C
i.e. 10 to 22 values should match in corresponding 10 to 22 values in Email Data sheet , if not not any value then 0

I've got a rather large set of data consisting of many sheets of data. I need to gather some of this data in a summary for to make it presentable. (Common goal) Currently the summary page works on a series of sumproduct commands that reference other sheets and take a great length of time to compute. I'd like to change this into a VBA code to speed up the process and eliminate all of the Sumproduct referencing. I know that in VBA you have to use the execute command to sumproduct, but i continue to get errors that i cannot resolve.
This is a sample of on of the sumproduct formulas that works (though slow) in the sheet:
=-SUMPRODUCT((('June Data'!A2:A65535="18020")*'June Data'!I2:I65535)+(('June Data'!A2:A65535="18030")*(LEFT('June Data'!E2:E65535,2)="AF")*'June Data'!I2:I65535))
The Raw data comes in columns A thru L. I need to sum the values from column I when column A = "18020" or when column A = "18030" and the left to letters of column E are "AF".
When I input the sumproduct into VBA using the execute command I get a compile error, it says it expects a list seperator at the "18030" and doesn't like the quotes. When I remove the quotes or put single quotes the result i get is a NAME# in the cell. Any help would be appreciated. This is a clip of the VBA code. Also, anything that is faster than execute would be much appreciated. I suspect that even in VBA having to run 50 of these sums will take some time.
Range("q4").Select
Selection = Evaluate("=-SUMPRODUCT(('June Data'!A2:A65535="18030")*(LEFT('June Data'!E2:E65535,2)="AF")*'June Data'!I2:I65535)")

I would like to have a code (VBA) for the below formula so I do not have to protect my worksheet (column B).
=IF(D15="","",INDEX(Sheet4!$C$14:Sheet4!$C$3000,MATCH(D15,Sheet4!$A$14:Sheet4!$A$3000,0)))
The above formula ends down until B13000. I feel the slowliness of Excel. I have seen something like this using the code (VBA) and it was not so slow compare with the formula created on the cell.

When I download data from server side into excel, specific number such as "83437E207" gets converted into scientific number such as "8.3437E+211".
Is there a way to format excel to always to read numeric data as numbers only.

Im importing figures into column G of my worksheet, and I need a code so it automatically adds a "0" to the start of each row in column G plus format it.
For example, im pasting in 970702090341 but its showing as 9.70702E+11.
Once I format the cell to 'number' and 0 decimal places it looks fine, but want to save the hassle of doing it each time. Plus I need a zero at the start.
Is there a code possible for this?

I currently have formulas in a column setup (equations are not actual)...
Cell B1: =IF(A2>A3,"Y","")
Cell C1: =IF(B2>B3,''Y",''")
Cell D1: =IF(C2>C3,"Y","")
....
I want to switch these to one long row from one long column so that they span from Cell A1, A2, etc.
When I special paste or straight paste it obviously alters the formulas because I am also unable to cell lock the current formulas.
I am wondering if there is an easy way to convert my formulas, currently along a column, to a row? Or if there is also a way to cell lock a large amount of cells at once?

I have adapted the use of StephenR's solution to a problem similar to that in the thread linked below. However I want to load the data directly into a new sheet instead of loading it into line 27 of the current sheet. This is the code I am working with, I think I need to change r2 somehow, not sure what to do exactly though.
[URL]
VB:
Sub KonverterFraMatrixTilListe()
Dim rng As Range, c As Long, r As Long, r2 As Long
r2 = 27
[Code]....
Another thing that I really want is for it to run not only for rows 4-8, but for rows 4-last row as defined by the A column.

I have a worksheet with a series of data in rows. Every 40th row is a sum of the previous forty rows.
I have a second worksheet that in a series of columns uses the 40th row sums from the other sheet. So column 1 uses row 40, column 2 uses row 80 data, etc.
Every time I update this, I create the new column using a copy and insert copied cells and then have to go to each field on the new column that uses this other worksheet to correctly update the formula for the new row. As when I do it this way, if Column 1 cell a1 formula said "worksheet2!A40, then the new column 2 cell b1 says "worksheet2!B40, where I want to make it be worksheet2!A80. I have tried highlighting a series of these corrected columns and dragging the formula over but still get a change in columns vs row from the other sheet.
I am looking to see if there is a way to do something like (in layman's expression):
(first column) worksheet 1, cell a1 = worksheet 2 cell A40
(second column) worksheet 1, cell b1 = worksheet 2 Cell A80
(third column) worksheet 1, cell c1 = worksheet 2 Cell (A80+40)
etc....

I have got a list of formulae in column A e.g.
'=SUM(E14:E24)
'=SUM(E14:I14)
'=SUM(J14:N14)
'=SUM(Q14:Q24)
'=SUM(V14:V24)
(formulae is stored as text, i.e. preceeding with an ')
and i am looking for a VBA macro to cycle through the list and give the relative notation in column B i.e.
'=SUM(R[-11]C:R[-1]C)
'=SUM(RC[-12]:RC[-8])
'=SUM(RC[-8]:RC[-4])
'=SUM(R[-11]C:R[-1]C)
'=SUM(R[-11]C:R[-1]C)

The following code was posted in another thread:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim a, v, x, ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Sheets("Scheduled Courses")
a = ws. Range("a2", ws.[a65536].End(xlUp)).Value
With CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
For Each v In a
If Not IsEmpty(v) And Not .exists(v) Then
.Add v, Nothing
End If
Next
x = .keys
End With
With Me.ComboBox1
.Clear ' clear the listbox content
.List = x
.ListIndex = 0 ' select the first item
End With
End Sub
How are the brackets used in the 4th line? I have not seen this notation before. Is this some kind of a shorthand for a Range("A65536") reference?

I often see square brackets around ranges in code. eg [A1]
if there are any advantages/disadvantages with using this notation, apart from the obvious its shorter?

I have attached an example sheet to help visually explain what I am going to try and articulate. Cell A2 and B2's values result in cell E2, Cell C2 and D2's values result in cell F2. The same is true for row 3.
So what I would like to do is, based on the predetermined ranges of the Height+Chest Columns, auto complete column E, and Columns C+D, auto complete column F. My problem is that I cannot simply cell A + B = E, because the maximum range of one layers the minumum range of another. An example would be Maximum of A+B is 101 to result in SXS in Columm C, but the minmum A+B to get a SS in column C would be 97. So what I need is, for another specific example:....
If cell A2 is between 57 and 65, and cell B2 is between 31 and 36, then Cell C2 must be SXS. If Cell A2 is between 66 and 68, and Cell B2 is between 31 and 36, then Cell C2 must be SS.

I have noticed in many of the Excel help files that the developers liked to use shortcut notation for Range reference in VBA.
For example, Range("A1:B10") would be [A1:B10].
I was doing a bit of testing with this, and was not able to make the shortcut notation work with a variable. Does the shortcut method have the capabilities to do the equivalent of Range("A1:B" & LR)?
If it does have that capability, is it just due to force of habit that we always use Range() to refer to ranges, or would there be a more in-depth reason.

I have a bit of code that is grabbing only the first 9 positions of an alpha-numeric string. The problem I am running into is that when the alpha-numberic value contains an "E", the code turns it into an exponential number in error.
For example, I have the following in column G: 01877E107000. When I run the code, it turns into an alpha-numeric value. The result should be 01877E107 (in column K). I tried using the text function within the code.

repTot = Application.WorksheetFunction.Sum(Worksheets("Revenue").Range(Cells(xx, 65), Cells(xx, 65 + moNum)))
I am trying to debug the above line of code (moNum is just a variable the tells me how many months to extend the range to the right inorder to get year to date sums).
I have gotten to the point that it will run error free if "Revenue" is the Active worksheet when I run the line, but if I am on any other sheet it throws an "Run=time '1004' Application-defined or object-defined error" error. And if I change the range from cell notation to Column-Row, the issue goes away as well.

I have a series of macros I have built to automate some report manipulation at my office. One of the macros I built inserts formulas into specific columns. When I run this macro, all the formulas, save one, are populated perfectly into the column they need to be in. This particular formula is swiched over to R1C1 Reference Notation.
In the workbook I built the macro in, it inserts the formula in the correct notation. When I run the macro in a different workbook, this one formula is converted to RC Notation and then is displayed as text (since the workbook is not set to the R1C1 Reference style option).
Is there a bug in my VBA code? If so, how can I correct this?
I use Excel 2007. Macros are saved in my Personal.xlsb workbook. All other forumlas populated by the macro work correctly.
