I have a worksheet with what appears to be symbols or text boxes; squares, some with a check mark in them, some without. cannot select any of them to edit or delete them, I can type in the cell behind the symbol, the symbol hides the text. I can copy and paste them, but not delete them. how to identify them to edit and/or delete them. Password protection and all cells are unlocked as well. I have stumped as well as other forums.

Lotus 123 had a function where you could graphically, in a cell, show plus symbols(+) or negative symbols (-) for the value of the data. For example if you had a column of numbers that you calculated from the previous year that indicate the change, Lotus, in the next cell would allow you to graphically display the symbols that indicate the strength of the change. So if your result was a positive ten then ten plus symbols would be shown. If it was -20 then 20 negative symbols would be shown. Now the numbers I am looking at could be 600,00 and I believe there was a way to to proportion the symbols for example for every 100,000 put in one symbol so the result would be 6 (+) signs.

In a MSquery on a ODBC source I am have a field in which there are several values in one (alfanumeric) field seperated by an alfa key.
Example:
A1 = &&&1000,80&&&500,35&&&11810 ABC&&&
The values between the &&& have to be copied into other cells so that I can use them for calculations
Example:
B1 = 1000,80
C1 = 500,35
D1 = 11810 ABC

I have copied some data from a website. I need to plot these onto a histogram. (this I know). However, the values have a $ sign attached. Is there a way to remove a whole column of $ signs without having to do this one by one?

I am looking to remove numbers and symbols from a single cell.
For example, I start with something like:
Cell A1: M. Flank1, T.D. Chang1*, T. Person2, J. Doe3
Cell A2: T.R. Money1*, Y.R. You2
...
and I want:
Cell B1: M. Flank, T.D. Chang, T. Person, J. Doe
Cell B2: T.R. Money, Y.R. You
...
And, there are about 300 more, with varying number of people per cell.
I'm not great with Macros, so if there is a way without macros, that would be good, but, if a macro works best, I can give it a shot..

I use an excel spreadsheet alot for billing in the construction industry. There are premade formulas in this spreadsheet. When no input value is present, the total column(s) either show a "$0.00" or show "#DIV/0!". How do I hide these results for the rows that do not yet have any input? I have seen it done on other speadsheets

I have lists of phone numbers with parenthases and hyphens. like (555) 333-4444
I would like to remove all symbols and leave just the numbers.
I would alsolike to add the number 1 in the first position.
so (555)333-4444 would end up 15553334444

I've got a workbook with multiple formulas e.g.:
t=S/D
TCh=Ch*(S^2/2D)*(D/Q)
TC=Co*(D/Q)+Ch*((i-D)/2i)*Q
which are built by implementing the symbols:
t, S, D, TCh, Ch, Q, TC, Co, i
I'd like to substitute the symbols in following sequence:
t = a
S = b
D = c
TCh = d
Ch = e
Q = f
TC = g
Co = h
i = x
Questions:
1) Which formula could substitute the symbols automaticly?
2) If there are up to 100 formulas in the workbook in the range of A1:E100,-
would it be possible to to set the substitution for the mentioned range?
See the attachment.

Im looking for a formula to count different symbols in a row. I am using =COUNTIF(A1:A1600,CHAR(251)) to count 1 symbol and =COUNTIF(A1:A1600,CHAR(252)) to count another. what i need is a formula to count all symbols no matter what they are. As in this case they will only be the 251 + 252 a formula just for that would be great.

I am importing content control information in a word file into excel by using a macro in excel. The information is coming across nicely but when the information about a checkbox comes across, in excel, that's what you see, a checkbox (☐ or ☒). Is there any way (formula or vba) to replace all the checkboxes with a yes or a no?
I wrote a formula that works:
Code:
=IF(G8="☒","YeS","nO")
But this will add this information to a new column and I would like to replace the information in the existing column (the form has about 200 checkboxes) and I don't want to add a bunch of new columns.
I also toyed with VBA:
Code:
Range("G1:G100").Replace "&", "No"
But when I try to paste the ☐ in the vba code, I get a "?" so I am assuming it doesn't recognize the ☐ as a valid character.

I have a spreadsheet that creates a named file using data entered into a field. For a hypothetical example, people can put their favorite car in A2 and, when the macro is run, it will SAVE AS the spreadsheet and name it with the value of A2. Problem is, some folks don't follow instructions and do things like HONDA / INSIGHT, or else something using symbols that are not valid for file names.
I know there are lots of ways to use Data Validation to prevent certain entries, but is there any way to prevent certain symbols? If not, can anyone help me with an Event Handler that would evaluate the data for certain symbols once the data is entered?

I use dot symbols in one column of my spreadsheet to call attention to a particular row. I am currently using ASCII(decimal) Char 149 and I count the column of dots with the following formula: =COUNTIF(A1:A20,CHAR(149))
This works fine, however, ASCII(decimal) Char 149 is a very small dot which is hard to see. I have found a much larger dot which is identified as BlackCircle Unicode(hex) 25CF. From an appearance standpoint the BlackCircle is much larger and much easier to see, however, I have been unable to construct a formula which will count the dots. How do I identify BlackCircle Unicode(hex) 25CF in order to count the character using the formula listed below: =COUNTIF(A165:A184,CHAR(25CF))

In trying to create a formula that remove EVERY symbol from a cell (C6) and replacing it with a space.... the "SUBSTITUTE" function is telling me I have too many nested Substitutes.
This is the formula:
Code:
=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE
(C6,"/"," "),"%"," "),"!"," "),","," "),"*"," "),"-"," "),"("," "),")"," ")
It works thus far, but I would still like to add more symbols into the nest. Is there a way/formula to do this that replaces ANY symbol with a space?
