Can it be done without Macros?
Is it possible to search Excel by cell colour, i.e. font colour...and then change the said colour to another one?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a lookup that gives and RGB colour code in Cell A1; for example 186, 206, 140.
I'd then like Cells R10:V15 to fill with the RGB colour based on the result in A1.
i want a cell to change to the colour green if 5 other cells on the page are green colour.
I want a cell to change colour to red if there are 1 or more red cells on the page.
How do I make this work?
So I have a macro that colors the selected cells in a certain color. Now im looking for a code that will switch that color every 7th cell, the cells will only be selected horizontally. For example:
if the selected range is 10 cells, 7 of them should be in one color and 3 of the should be in another. But if the selected range is 15 cells the first 7 should have one color and the next 7 should have another and then the last one should have the first color again, and so on..
I have a column of Full Names like so:

I'm using =LEN(TRIM(C2))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(C2," ",""))+1 to do a word count. What I need is a formula that will delete all characters between the first and last word if the word count equals more than 2. Even just a formula to determine the location of the first and last space so I can use MID() to cut it out.
how i can delete this selection by tab colour?
Thought it would be somthing like this.
If Worksheets.Tab.ColorIndex = xlColorIndexNone Then
Rows("1:11").Select
Range("D1").Activate
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
I have a column containing mixed text and I want to remove everything from the column except instances of certain colors; black, red, blue etc. Is there a formula which would do this or can it be done with Search/Replace?

The original cell may have a date and be yellow and I want the target cell to be yellow with the same date, if someone then changes the original cell to be red the target cell should automatically change to Red
Is there an easy way to do this or do I need some VB script?
I have about 2000 rows, all with an amount of words between 2 and 6. I want to limit each row to keep only the first TWO words. Is there a way to do this?
If not, is there a way to limit each row to only keep the first 11 characters?
I have sheet 1 with a list of numbers in column A and a list of text next to them in column B. I need the code to look at a list of words that will be in column A on sheet 2 and if any of those words appear anywhere within the cell (could be at the beginning, middle or end) in column B on sheet 1 then I need the entire row deleted.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI 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
how to create one macro: I have a spreadsheet with 8 columns with various text headings. Each column has different data (some show dates, some show only figures, some show text). Specifically, column E (entitled "Sub Item Reference") has various text entries (e.g. "Newsletter" or "Booklet"). I am hoping to find a simple macro that will search column E and delete any rows where that column contains the text "Cover" or "Label". I'm sure it's the simplest thing going but I can't seem to work it out.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI would like to have the colour of a cell change within a spreadsheet anytime that a change has been made. I have used the worksheet_change function to change any text that has changed in a cell, however I would like to have the actual cell colour change if someone deletes anything from that cell. I figured that I could use the worksheet_change function for that as well however it is not working.

I have a spreadsheet where I can change the colour of a cell by clicking the mouse, I also have text in many of the cells.
What I need to do is protect (lock) the text so that no one can change the text in any of the cells, but I still want to be able to change the colour of the cells by clicking the mouse in that cell.
im currently wonderin if the SUMIF function can have a WHERE syntax?
because i want to add up cells which contain these:
A B
1 VC-ON US 2
2 MC-ON US 5
3 MC-OFF US (STD) 8
4 VC-OFF US (PREM) 9
in another separate cell, i want to retrieve the sum of numbers with the words ON US in column A. so the final result will be 7.
I have a column of words in Column A and I want to replace all the times that these words appear in the rest of the excel sheet with the words in Column B. If someone has already answered a similar problem link me to the thread because I can't find anything.

I'm looking to take words which are originally in their own separate cells and "combining" the words all into one single cell.
Is there a function that will be able to do this for me?
I have hundreds of file names, and to cut a long explanation short, they are exported as a CSV file to excel. In order indentify the owner of the file I need to rename the file with a commar where you see the dash or the underscore in order to have the name appear in the next cell, as can be seen with Syma and Kevin below, so I can then sort the columns etc etc.
I know there is a formula that I can use to achieve this, ie have syma.pdf and kevinc.pdf in the next cell.
I think it works on identifying how many characters along the name and then send i to the next cell.
as you can see below, there is no set amount of characters to put into a formula.
Could I say, for example, if after dash /underscore put next word in next cell?
t5 mon a2 w6-syma-0003.pdft5 mon cst w2_dellwynneh.pdft5 mon a23 w3_MASUMS.pdft5 mon cmn201a w1- syma.pdft5 thurs wiabe w2_kevinc.pdft5 thurs wiabe2 w2_kevinc.pdf

I am trying to clear the contents of cells in a very large spread sheet containing certain words. I am running the following macro and it will only do the first part, so it will clear cells containing "deceased" but stops at "esa". There may be any number of other words or text in the cell and I want it to delete cells with "esa" by itself so for ex. not delete cell containing "vanesa". I am very amateur so I am sure this is something simple but I cannot find the answer or figure it out for myself.
Sub DeleteAll()
Dim lCount As Long
Dim rFoundCell As Range
Dim rLookRange As Range
Set rFoundCell = Range("A1")
Set rLookRange = ActiveSheet.UsedRange
For lCount = 1 To WorksheetFunction. CountIf(rLookRange, "*deceased")
Set rFoundCell = rLookRange.Find(What:="deceased", After:=rFoundCell, _
LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)

I have a Sheet ( Named "Summary" for Example ) of about 4,000 Rows that has a LOT of Conditional Formatting.
I Added Another 100 Rows this Morning and when I Tried Saving it a Message Saying that Not All the Formatting for the New Data that had Been Added had Been Saved. Is there a Macro or Something I can Run that will Make the Conditionally Formatted Cells Stay the Colour that they are but Delete the Conditional Formatting Part of it Achieved Using "Format" & "Conditional Format" from the Menu Please.
Ideally I would like to be Able to Enter the Number of Rows ( From Row ? to Row ? ) that I want this to Apply to.
I'm looking for a macro to remove all words (in a single word per cell format) in a range (approx 100 columns & 7000 rows), except for a list of 100 words.
I'd prefer to email the file if that's okay.
I've been using conventional method to do this and it's time consuming. I would like to total up 2 column. A multiply B to be exact. Below are some examples:
Table 1 - Before totaling up:
Quantity
Product
5
2 x Button A White
3
4 x Button B Pink
4
5 x Ribbon A Black
2
3 x Thread A White
6
2 x Cloth A Blue
Table 2 - After totaling up:
Quantity
Product
10
Button A White
12
Button B Pink
20
Ribbon A Black
6
Thread A White
12
Cloth A Blue
I need to have the sum of the "Quantity" multiply "Product". Or in short A x B.
And the end result need to have the number and "x" sign removed while keeping on the the products names. (2 x ) Take note it's "number" space "symbol" space.
I would like it to loop through all the charts on the "Graphs" sheet.
It works well but gives a "Run-time error '1004'" Application-defined or object-defined error afterward that I would like to get rid off.
VB:
Sub Colour_Chart_working()
Dim rngColors As Range
Dim rngCell As Range
[Code].....
This formula counts the number of spaces between words in a cell:
