Delete Part Of A Text Line With Excel?

Jan 29, 2014

I have a text document with 1000 lines. All the lines are in this format

important< %#$ other words
other important thing < %Z$different words

I want to know if is such a excel filter that will delete all the characters starting from "<" until the end of the line.

Delete Row If Cell Contains Certain Text As Part Of Text String?

May 15, 2014

I have a column of data with letters in each cell, no numerical, only alpha. Now, some of those cells contain the letters "adj sub" as part of the text string in each cell. "Adj sub" is always at the beginning of the text string. As an example, a cell will look like this - "adj sub mhm". I want to delete rows whose cell description does not contain "adj sub" as part of the text in the cell.

VBA To Delete Part Of Text String

Aug 15, 2014

I am trying to delete part of a text string for a range of cells. The code I have so far deletes the first set of letters but is looking in every cell in the range.

Ideally I would like it to only look in the cells of col B where there is data then only delete the first 10 letters if the cell begins with "Service ID"

Sub DeleteServiceID()
Dim c As Range
For Each c In Range("B1:B1000")
c.Value = Right(c.Value, 10)
Next c
End Sub

Find Part Text On All Sheets & Delete The Column

Sep 26, 2007

I am trying to move through the worksheets and delete all columns with "Accession" in contained in them. I have to do this with an external macro as the spreadsheet with the data is created from another program. I tried this and get an 'Object or With block variable not set' error and the debug highlights the Cells. Find line of the code.

Also, the number of columns could be variable within the spreadsheet as it is compiled by the other program.

Sub DelAccessionNum()
Dim Wrkst As Worksheet
For Each Wrkst In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
Cells.Find(What:="Accession", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=False _
, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
On Error Goto Completed:
Selection.EntireColumn.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Completed:
Next
End Sub

Jun 1, 2014

I'm running Excel 2010.

In a field containing this: Bergamot, Orange*(11,16) I want to put a space before the asterisk. There are hundreds of these in the spreadsheet with other text before and after the text to be replaced. I made sure the field is defined as a text field.

I searched on "*(" and said replaced with " *(" and ended up with " *(11,16)" - the Bergamot, Orange was removed from the field.

Remove First Part Of String Of Text And Keep The Second Part?

Feb 12, 2014

Is there any way to remove the first part of a string of text in a cell and save the second part?

The first part of the text string is a team code that has a variable number of numbers, capital letters and sometimes spaces. The second part of the text string is a variable number of words in a team name that all start with a capital letter and have lower case letters. Every line has a different team code and team name.

The original spreadsheet also has a column with just team code. Is there a way of using this column to "subtract" the team code from the text string to just leave the team name?

Highlight Last Line Of Text And Copy To Line Below?

Mar 14, 2014

I have a spreadsheet where on a weekly basis data is copied in to various tabs. I then have a "formula" tab where I have a single line of formulas which look up the various data tabs and extract the results I want to show.

Currently each week, before I import the new data into the various tabs, I copy the last row in the "formula" tab and paste to the line below it. This contains all the working formulas. I then paste values only on the line that I copied, thus "locking in" the values it calculated with that weeks data. This means that each row then contains the results with that week's data, and this will grow week by week.

What I am looking for is a formula that automates this process. So let's say that row 30 is the final row of data on my formula tab, it contains the formulas I want to use. I would need a macros that does the following:

1. Looks up last row (row 30)
2. Copies last row (row 30)
3. Pastes to next empty row (row 31)
4. Pastes values only to second last row (row 30)

I'm not too great with writing macros, I've found plenty that can find the last row, but I can't get them to work to highlight that row.

Delete A Line.or Rather A Line On A Line

Apr 8, 2008

I have a spreadsheet where there is a white line that is over a row line. No matter what I do I cannot seem to delete it.

I zoom in but I cannot select it.

I change the border of the cells and it will not disappear.

I am completely lost as to what else it could be, no doubt it is a simple answer that is staring me in the face. I inherited the spreadsheet so not sure what was done in the past.

Delete Part Of Cell Value

Jul 1, 2009

Column B on the spredsheet gets the Part Description vaules, we copy and paste from Customers excel and unfortunatly some descriptions contain 3asteriks in a row (***) and I need to import this into Access later on and Access will not except asteriks. Find and replace doesnt seem to work like i hoped , it replaces everything in cell not just part of it . If someone has a Formula that will work that would be ok too, it does not have ot be VBA

EXAMPLE Part Descriptions:
RADIAL TIE DOWN LUG (4/500's) *** Formed
FINES V-PLOW/ SCRAPER MOUNT ANGLE; Rev. A ***Formed

I only need the asteriks deleted

Delete Part Of Formula

Jul 24, 2012

I have a dump which looks like below sample:

3
3
2
2

3
3
2
2

[code]....

The actual dump will have around 200 - 500 rows of data.

From the above I need to manually group them which are similar.

E.g. the data of (3, 3, 2 , 2) in row 1 & 2 are matching, so they will be group 1 & row 3 will be group 2, row 4 will be group 3 respectively.

The sum & sort did not work for me as sometimes the data with the same range are not in same order.

E.g of the output below for the above data:

Group No.

1
3
3
2
2

1
3
3
2
2
