Delete Contents After First Four Letters
May 12, 2009
I am looking for a code that will search the contents for every row in Column B and count the first four letters, any other letters, which come after the first four letters; I would like the code to delete them. For example. If “Sell now” were in cell B1 it would become "Sell" or if “Vend later” were in cell B2 it would become “Vend”, and so on.

I have an excel sheet with about 20,000 rows. I want to delete rows that in column AC or AD do not have the letters E, A, or Y. Therefore, all remaining rows should have the letter E, A, or Y in column AC or AD.

I need to delete the last 3 character from a colon, but the problem is that the Colon will be deleted after.
Let me explain:
National
453386855
National
453386567
National
453388587
With the formula =LEFT(A2,LEN(A2)-3)
I will have this:
National
453386855
453386
National
453386567
453386
National
453388587
453388
But I need to delete the second colon, and I will have this:
National
#VALUE!
National
#VALUE!
National
#VALUE!

I'm trying to clean up several long worksheets by removing rows that don't contain a visable number or letter.
I want to remove all rows that only contain either empty cells, formulas that evaluate to a empty text string (""), cells that contain error values, or cells that contain zeros, or any combination of the previous.
I've stumbled onto the following, but it does not work.

I've seen a few examples of macros to delete the row if the first letter is something, but not if the first 2 is equal to something.
I'm looking to go thru every row that contains data and look in Column B to see if it starts with P4 or P5. If that's true, then delete the entire row.

Is there a way using a macro to check each row in Column D and Column F for "0", so that when both columns in the same row have "0" and only when both columns in the same row have "0" the contents "0" in that row of Column D and F will be deleted?

What I need to do is starting at cell E251 of the Cheque Logging Sheet I need the code to check the cell for any contents and if there is nothing in the cell then DELETE THE CONTENTS then move to cell E250 and do the same all the way up to E2
My ACCESS problem is that even if the cells in Column E contain nothing the only way that I can upload the spreadsheet to Access is by deleting the contents of the empty cells. Currently I am doing this manually but I would rather sit back and have VBA do it for me...

I've been pressing on with my project and figured out that I really do not know the difference between Deleting and Clear contents. I really thought they were the same but am now unsure. I guess I have 2 questions. Which is better to use? what I'm doing is removing old data and importing new data. and which is more efficient for writing code.
Sheets("Bodies"). Range("A2:Z65000").ClearContents
Sheets("bodies").Range("a2:Z65000").Delete

I'm trying to put together functionality which allows the user to remove cell content within a selected row. I've chosen to remove the cell content rather than to delete the whole row because I need to maintain the 'Input Range'.
The code below is the script which I've put together to clear the cell contents.
Code:
Sub DelRow()
Dim msg
Sheets("Input").Protect "password", UserInterFaceOnly:=True
Application.EnableCancelKey = xlDisabled
Application.EnableEvents = False
msg = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this row?", vbYesNo)
[Code] ........
The code works fine if the user selects one row. However, if the user selects mutliple rows, although the text values are removed from all rows, only the 'Interior Color' is removed from the first rather than all and I'm not sure why.

I need a formula that would scan a given column for data, get the first available data from the first available cell ( D1 ), perform computation, input result in a different cell ( A1 ) and then delete the contents of D1 and move on the D2 and so on till end of data. So far I have been able to have the result in A1 but could not achieve the deletion of D1 contents. The purpose is to prevent the formula from scanning the data column from D1 again. In this way, the datawould be made available in one column and when the data have been processed the column would be empty and the result would be in another column.

Need to search a sheet and find cells that contain the text "."
Want all cells that don't contain a "." (dot) to be erased from the sheet
Example : so in sheet1,
I have a number of columns and a number of rows
in cell A3 the value is - " there are requirements."
in cell F23, the value is -"the Requirement is."
since both cells have "." ( dot) , I want these cells to remain in the sheet, but the rest of the cells should become blank.

I have a spreadsheet with a serial number is row 1 in column A with the rest of Row 1 empty. Column A is empty in Row 2, but has the data associated with the row above in columns B through L of Row 2. Then comes 2 blank rows and the pattern repeats with a new serial number in column A of row 5 and so on. I would like to move the serial number down one row, delete the now empty first row, delete the following 2 empty rows, and then loop to do the same thing again for all 9000 rows of the spreadsheet.

I have merged two workbooks into one. What I need to do at this point is to delete all rows that have a duplicate entry, basically anytime the cell content in one cell matches the cell content in the cell right below or above it, BOTH rows should be deleted. At this point, this is above my VBA skills so I'm asking for help in how to do this. The stripped version of the workbook is attached (only 100 rows) but in reality this is a huge workbook with almost 22,000 rows.
You will notice in the attached workbook, that cell contents for A2 and A3 match. For what I need to do, I need both rows (2 and 3) to be deleted. If you go down a bit, starting in row 89 all the contents in column A are unique so those need to remain.

I have a spreadsheet containing 100 "requests" which can be made by a user
i would like the option for the user to be able to delete a request should they wish it either by deleting a row or clearing the contents
Currently I have a single column which is full of buttons (one for each row)
when i click the button on row 10 I would like row 10 deleted
when i click the button on row 30 i would like row 30 to be deleted etc
is there a way to do this without writing 100 macros which are specific to each line?

how i might create a macro to attach to a button so i can delete the contents of all VALUE! cells. Either this or have a script in the background so no cell will return VALUE! (or any other error if possible)
I know if i had all the formulae sorted they might not butit's quite a large spreadsheet. The reason for the VALUE! error is text in cells that the formal points.

I want to delete the contents of every cell without deleting any code from my module. The reason I ask is, I'm reading from a text file into excel.
I want to run my code to read text into excel one time through. Then i want to delete all the text, make some alterations to my code, and run the code again. That way each time the worksheet is fresh and clear before i run the code.

I have this forumala.
=RIGHT(A1,MIN(500,LEN(A1)))

Buttom line, I'd like to see only the last 500 characters per cells in Col. A after I run the macro.

I have a list in Excel, and it has the company in one column, and it's information in the next x rows until there is a blank row (4-7 rows). I get that you can copy the rows under the Company, transpose next to the company, and then delete the contents of the cells that you just took the data from, but I have 6200 rows do to this to, for 500+ companies. I tried recording a macro for two entries, and this is what I have (see below), but how do I modify this so that I don't need to type in every single range, and it will do it to the whole column? The data is in column A, I am posting in column B.
Basics for Macro Requirement:
1. Find the blank cell in row A
2. Skip the next cell/row (this is the company)
3. Select all the cells beneath the company cell, until it reaches the blank cell underneath
4. Copy, transpose these cells next to the Company cell (transpose in column B)
5. Delete the contents in row A that were just transposed
6. Find the next cell with data (company)
7. Repeat Steps 2-6
My recorded Macro:
Sub Macro2()
'
' Macro2 Macro
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+q
'
Range("A3:A8").Select
[code]....

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.
