Name File Based On First 2 Characters In A Cell

Aug 11, 2006

I'm trying to find a way to save a file based on the contents of cell A2. I've modified the code to Create Worksheets for Each Item in an Excel Table of Data, so that it creates a new workbook for each item. I am also trying to get it to save the master workbook based on the first 2 characters in the cell. Here is the code I have, at the moment (the FAIL.xls is what I put in for testing)

If Range("A2").Value = "YE*" Then
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "YE_Master.xls"
ElseIf Range("A2").Value = "NE*" Then
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "NE_Master.xls"
Else: ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "FAIL.xls"
End If

I've tried this, string arrays and everything else I can think of, and it's failing every time.

Launching Macro Based On Selected Cell Value (first Two Characters?)

Sep 6, 2013

I have a macro to sort a very large list of materials by a variety of conditions.

The macro runs automatically when a cell on the master list spread sheet is selected and using If/ElseIf it sorts based on what cell they have selected.

Example
If ActiveCell = "ALUMINIZED" Then
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$14:$K$1945").AutoFilter Field:=2
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$14:$K$1945").AutoFilter Field:=4
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$14:$K$1945").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:= _"Aluminized"

Which is working perfectly. The problem I am having is that some of the cells are two lines so it looks like this:

BE
BEARINGS

I don't know how to get it to launch based on that cell content because of the line break in there. Can I make it launch based on the first two characters only?

Restrict Cells Text To X Characters Based On Corresponding Cell

Apr 14, 2009

I'm am trying to restrict the length of data that can be entered into a cell based on a drop down in that row. I have achieved this, but what I need to be able to do is use data validation to restrict the cell length to one of two values - so for example the length can only be 6 OR 9 characters long.

I cant see how to do this. At present the best I can do is rectrict to between 6 and 9 - but this would allow 7 and 8 which is not allowed.

Delete Characters More/and Less Than

Feb 19, 2007

I have a keyword list in ColA. about 25,000 phrases.
What I want to do is create a macro button.
when i click on it a pop up box would appear called "Deleting Characters"
It will have to 2 rows, 1 saying "More Than",, the other saying "Less Than"

So, beside these words are input boxes.
So I can type the numbers "2" and say "50"
So it will look at all the rows of data in my ColA (Always from A3 downwards)
and deletes all rows with less than 2 characters and more than 50 characters.
When it is finished a floating box appears saying
"123 Characters Less Than 2 Deleted"
"101 Characters More Than 50 Deleted"

Sub NoOfCharacters()
Dim lastrow As Long, TotP, TotC, AvC
lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
If lastrow < 4 Then
MsgBox "Nothing to sort!"
Exit Sub
End If
Range("B1").EntireColumn.ClearContents
Range("B3").Formula = "=LEN(A3)"
Range("B3").AutoFill Destination:=Range("B3:B" & lastrow)
Range("A3:B" & lastrow).Sort key1:=Range("B3"), order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess
TotP = lastrow - 2
TotC = Application.Sum(Range("B3:B" & lastrow))
AvC = TotC / TotP
MsgBox "Total No Phrases: " & Chr(9) & Chr(9) & Chr(9) & TotP & Chr(13) & "Total No Characters: " & Chr(9) & Chr(9) & TotC & Chr(13) & "Avg No Characters Per Phrase: " & Chr(9) & AvC
End Sub

Delete First X Characters In Cells

Oct 10, 2007

I am trying to write a macro that will go through each cell in a column with the following format "| 12- 4" or "| 60-11" and will remove the first to character "| ".

There numbers are lengths, the first being feet the second inches. I would like to achieve in a separate column the numerical length (with decimals) multiplied by 1%. My code is as follows I just need help on the conversion.

Sub newLength()
Dim LR, lrow As Integer
Dim feet, inches, Line As Double

LR = Range("B65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
For lrow = LR To 2 Step -1
If Cells(lrow, "D") <> Cells(lrow - 1, "D") Then
Rows(lrow).Insert Shift:=xlDown
End If
feet = Left(Cells(lrow, "E").Value, 4)
inches = Right(Cells(lrow, "E").Value, 2) / 12 'I need to debug this line, but I suspect there is more I need to do.
Cells(lrow, "F") = feet + inches
Next lrow
End Sub

How To Delete All Words Containing Specific Characters

May 14, 2014

I need a formula which can clean up a huge data set. Essentially i need to delete the entire word which contains the characters "aceae". note that "aceae" is a suffix, but i need to delete the entire word not just the suffix, plus keep the rest of the string. i have tried the "find and replace" function of excel with wildcard, but that deletes everything before/after without deleting the entire word. i have tried a combination of formulas to isolate the unwanted words, but that method is inefficient and inaccurate. below is a schematic of what im looking to do:

Column A ------------------------------ Column B
l. planeri asteraceae africa laselva-----> l. planeri africa laselva
l. planeri moraceae europe singer------> l. planeri europe singer
origin l. fluviatilis bignoniaceae asia----> origin l. fluviatilis asia
alternate l. fluviatilis piperaceae asia---> alternate l. fluviatilis asia

Delete Unwanted Characters Within Certain Criterias

Jun 20, 2007

I have a spreadsheet that i manually edit each and everyday e.g.

A B C
EABGL/UD NDT254892
MRMR/RUS/ELQNS259762
LSL/UW/B LQNS267259
WWEX/UQ bbr263666
LWL/KL/B 270407
MYTCJ/UB NDT271774
LNL/SB/UB HLC - 271955
SMMQD/WT HLC - 269516
EACO/TN/UGBBR257827
NILVA/UC EUi273645

For everything that doesnt equal EM, LN, LW and TH in column A, everything should be deleted in column B.

For the remaining EM, LN, LW and TH, i would then like it to delete / (forward slash and all characters after this) so that this would make my life easier.

Delete Characters After Last Specific Character Occurence

Jun 11, 2008

I have one column with many numbers. Some have one dash and some have two.

Example:
123-123456-65
012-789546-1
98B12354-889

Is there a way that I can remove all characters after the last – (dash) in the number?
Example:

If number is 123-123456-65
Then 123-123456

If number is 98B12354-889
Then 98B12354

If someone could just lead me in a direction, I might be able to figure it out. However, my code is elementary and most of the time, I record macros and the play with the code until it does what I want.

Delete Row Based On Cell Below

Jun 22, 2007

I currently have a spreadsheet with circa 50,000 lines with info regarding our websites at work. In every row, column "A" contains a unique reference number.There eill either be 1 row for this reference number, or there will be 2 rows. there will never be more than 2 rows for each reference. I wanted some code to say that if theres only one row, then delete it but if the if the cell underneath it is the same then its ok. I tried the following but it deletes the row anyway, supposing the cell under it is the same or not

Sub test()
Dim icell
icell = ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Value
Range("A1").Select
Do
If ActiveCell.Value = icell Then
ActiveCell.Offset(2, 0).Select
Else
ActiveCell.Rows.Delete
End If
Loop Until ActiveCell.Value = ""

I would like to search my worksheet and whenever it finds the word "Description" in column "B" then it should select the range "B:E" for that row and delete the cells directly above it.

This is what I tried but nothing happens:

VBA To Delete 4 Row Range Based On One Cell Value

Oct 21, 2013

I have a spreadsheet broken out into about 30 4-row ranges, for example (A10:L13). All of the ranges use a using a vlookup argument:

=IFERROR(VLOOKUP($A10,Fund_Range,2,FALSE),"") in the second row.

Around 15 of the ranges will be populated based on varying data in the fund_range data table, the remainder will be blank. The first row of each range is a header row, I would like the macro to delete the range when there is no value in the second row (the blank ranges). Every attempt I have made starting with other code from the forum has come up empty. I think part of my problem is the vlookup formula existing in these otherwise "blank" rows.

Delete Value In Cell Based On Selection In Listbox

Jun 7, 2012

I have two listboxes where I can move tickers from left to right. This is synced with a sheet, such that the tickers also are pasted there too.

But if I use the remove button, I can remove tickers from the listbox, but I cannet delete them from the sheet. If I understand right the listbox only refer to what row the selected is, not what the text is...

And then its a bit tricky. I have tried a code where it just add the list one more time, after the itmes has been removed. And that could work if it hadn't been for the second column which also has a text, this column is updated after every ticker has been moved from left to right.

What I would like to have is a function that would know what the text in the row that I delete, or remove.

This is what I have so far:

Code:
Private Sub cmdMoveToLeft_Click()

Dim i As Integer, j As Integer, k As Integer
Dim RowsStart As Integer
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim Rows As Integer

RowsStart = Me.ListBoxX.ListCount

[Code] .......
