Delete Everything In Cell Beyond First Word

May 5, 2009

I'm trying to figure out the best way to pull information from different worksheets. One field which I require has slight alterations between the sheets. I'd like to delete everything in the cell except for the very first word.

Here is a simple example (and I'd have this all through column A for instance)

Cell A1 = Multiple words here

Lets say I want to delete everything in the cell except the word "multiple"

Excel To Delete First Word In A Cell?

Sep 12, 2013

My text currently looks like:

"PEN228 PENICILLIN VK 250mg 28"

I need it to look like:

"PENICILLIN VK 250mg 28"

I searched the forum the last couple of days and got the following formula: =RIGHT(TRIM(E3),FIND("~",SUBSTITUTE(E3," ","~",LEN(TRIM(E3))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(E3)," ",""))))-1)

However that is leaving: "228 PENICILLIN VK 250mg 28". Unfortunately I need to get rid of all of the first word.

Delete The Rows Until It Meets A Cell With The Word "Date"

Mar 9, 2007

I am trying to make a simple program that will go down column A deleting the rows until it meets a cell with the word "Date" in the A column. When it has found that row I want it to delete that row also and then stop.

This is what I have so far

Sub FindAndDelete()

Dim row As Integer
Dim col As Integer

ActiveSheet.Range("a1").Select

If Range("a1") "date" Then Rows("1:1").Select
Selection.Delete
End Sub

I tried defining row =1
col = 1

and then going if range ("rowcol") but no joy.

Export Cell Contents To Word Fields In A Protected Word Document

Jul 6, 2009

Is it possible to export Excel cell contents to Word fields in a protected Word document? For example...

What code would be needed to tell Excel to open up, copy and export the contents of A2 in the active sheet of a workbook to "Field 2" in a Word document named "Report 01" and then put the contents of B2 to "Field 2" etc?

Do both applications have to be opened up at the same time or is Excel able to open up Word on its own? Will the macro be able to....

1. Automatically open up the correct Word document?

2. Look ONLY in a certain folder for the "Report 01" Word document?

or

Bring up a "selection" box that allows you to select the document you wish Excel to export it's data to?

3. Close and save the Word Document without any user intervention?

I am trying to find the word ''New'' and then delete row.Here is my current code below...

My code works fine upuntil Loopwhile.

The reason for this, on this particular occasion there is only one line containing 'new' so the code has nothing to loop....

So I need to re write

In order to account for the possibility only one row ft's the word 'New'

Also might be worth mentioning the word New could ft in amongst other data in the particular cell.

If Word Is Contained Within A Cell, Ouput That Word In Another

Jul 18, 2008

I have a bunch of cells in column b that have products.

Column B
Dell 24" lcd
vaio sony laptop
8.0 mpxl kodak camera
photoepsonprinter

Basically in Column A I want a formula that'll say.

If the word "dell" is somewhere in cell b1, then put the word "Dell" in cell a1.
If the word "sony" is somewhere in cell b1, then put the word "sony" in cell a1.

And then so on and so forth down through column A. The brand names are potentially endless, so is there a easy way to on like a seperate sheet make a list of brand names and have it pull from there?

Originally I made a if function that said if the brand name was contained in the cell then output the brand name, but that caps at 7 for the amount of brands i can use....

Macro To Delete Merged Rows According To Key Word

Oct 5, 2009

I have got an excel sheet with 2 columns A and B.

Column A's rows are merged according to column B. E.g.

Column A:

Row 1-7 (merged) Ron

Column B:

Row 1: New Jersey
Row 2: New Delhi
Row 3: New Jersey
Row 4: New York
Row 5: New York
Row 6: New Jersey
Row 7: New York

My result should be like:

Column A:

Row 1: Ron

Column B:

Row 1: New York

and similarly for other rows also.

PS: The no. of rows merged for column A can be different.

Also the keyword that should be present in Column B should be according to hierarchy, New York, New Delhi and then New Jersey i.e. first the macro should check for New York, if its present (in 1st 7 rows according to example given) then New York should be written in Coulmn B, if New York is not present then it should check for New Delhi and New Delhi should be written in Column B and if New York and New Delhi both are not present then it should check for New Jersey.

There are only 3 keywords which need to be checked i.e. New York, New Delhi and New Jersey.

If these 3 keywords are not present then the macro should not do anything.

Macro To Find Word And Delete Group Of Cells?

Aug 1, 2014

I have an excel file, where there is a section "Additional Requirements". This section is repeated like 20-25 times in the sheet and has a group of merged cells below it to enter data as shown in the picture. Issue is that majority of these "Additional Requirements" are not filled by the user. Hence maybe only 3 or 4 are filled and I have to manually delete the rest. I tried the code below, but it doesn't do anything.Running the macro just jumps the cells slowly downwards the sheet. Maybe if the macro runs 10-15 times it reads the whole code and then moves on to the next row.8-1-2014 12-43-27 PM.png What I'm trying to achieve is:

1. for the macro to find "Additional Requirements"

2. Then check the Merged cell below it (thus the offset)

3. If this cell is blank, select this cell and the cell containing "Additional Requirements"

4. Delete entire rows of these cells/delete the selection (entirerow.delete). (I read somewhere to set a variable as selection and clear it, hence ive included in the unreadable code. This wasn't working either)

Vba Code To Delete The Empty Bookmarks In Word Document?

Mar 17, 2014

I have been automating reports that will be generated in word documents for every company. The baseline is that I have a excel sheet which contain the data inputs and a word template document (template with bookmarks). I have written a macro that generate the reports when the user clicks the button but found that there some reports that generates empty bookmarks since there is no data for the corresponding bookmark. I have uploaded the excel sheets that has the full data and the setup sheets. The setup sheet has the Column Number, Bookmark Name, Description. The data sheet has the data values and the code info sheet has the name of the template doc and the name of the destination folder where the reports will be generated and stored. My requirement is to delete the empty bookmark from the report named "Blackberry". where to write the macro for deleting the empty bookmarks and its sentences (whether its in excel book or word template doc)?
