My original datasheet had two separate columns, First Name & Last Name. I've combined the two columns into one so it appears Last Name, First Name. Some of the names have middle names. Is there anyway to delete the middle name.
Example: Cope, David Simon
Trying to get: Cope, David
I have a sheet that I fill out with customer data then print and start over with the next customer. This requires me to tab and delete through the sheet before starting the next entry and I am wondering if there is some way to auto clear the unlocked cells based on a single entry IE when we entered new data in the 1st field this would clear the unlocked cells and make them ready for new data?

I am using Excel on a work computer that someone else may have changed the settings on.
I want to simply delete a cell, without deleting the entire row the cell belongs to. Yet when I highlight the cell, and go to Edit -> Delete, the program asks me if I want to delete the entire row, and only gives me two options: OK or Cancel. So I can't delete just one cell (and have all of the lower cells shift up one).
When I right click, the 'delete' option is not present either. I tried changing the menu properties to add the 'delete' function, but it will not delete a cell without taking out the whole row.
I have a lot of calculations going on so I thought I would name some of the cells where factors come from to make it easier to follow.
I made a typo and named a cell wrong, is there a way to delete it? Right now I have a correct and incorrect name attached to the cell.

I want to delete columns that contain a 0 value in row 2 of the column.
In my case, I have headers in row 1 and values in rows 2 and below. I eventually want to filter out the columns that contain no values below the headers.

I was wondering if ther is a way to delete what is in one cell, once something has been enterted in another?
Example A1 has In-progress written in the cell.

Creating macros in excel. I am looking for a way to delete a row at the active cell. So far this code does the job for me:
Code:

, AllowFormattingCells:=True
End Sub
But I want to make it impossible to use this code on the first 4 rows.
I'm looking to do a search and delete in Excel 2007 and I'm having a great deal of difficulty trying to do this. I've attempted to modify some code I found on the internet and not having very good luck with it. Here is the scenario, I've got a spreadsheet with 5 columns (A to E). In column C, there is a product name with certain identifiers that set it apart. An example of this product name with identifier is "product XXX_type 2_attribute ". I want to search for "type 2" in Column C of each row and then delete the row.
Here is what I have written so far and I'm not having any luck.
Sub RowDel()
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Range(Range("c4"), _
Range("c65536").End(xlUp))
If cell = "_GPnl_" Then
Range(cell, _
Cells(Rows.Count, 1)).EntireRow.Delete
Exit For
End If
Next cell
End Sub
I want to delete part of a cell in Excel. For example if a cell had the data "BlueGreen" how would I delete the "Blue" bit just to leave the "Green" bit behind? Surely there is an easier way then physically deleting the first part in each cell? I have about 4000 cells to work on!

What I want it to do is go through the sheet and delete anything that doesnt have Employee or Total in column A, but my problem is that they dont JUST say Employee or Total, its more like Employee: Team A or Employee Group 1. The Total part always says "Total of " and a number, but the number is always different. How do I make it not delete it if it has Employee or Total anywhere in the cell?
I have column of numbers used as item codes, they appear with a small green triangle in each cell. When I select all cells a little blue square pops up with drop down options to convert to number- after doing this the green triangles disappear but then numbers I had listed as eg '043340' appear as 4334. Is there way to make sure zero's are not deleted as some of my results from formulas end up being incorrect.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI work for a bank and we use an excel spreadsheet that has an in depth payment calculator used for creating monthly payment arrangements or calculating settlements on bank loans. I would like to add the following feature and I'm not quite sure exactly how to do it.
For example, imagine cell A1 will contain the full payoff of a loan. I want to be able to put a settlement offer in B1 and have C1 populate the percentage of the payoff that is. At the same time, I want to be able to delete the settlement offer in B1 and put a percentage in C1 and have it calculate that settlement offer in B1. The calculations/formulas to do these problems is simple, but what I need is to not lose the formulas in B1 and C1 if I were to go back and forth entering settlement offers vs settlement percentages.
I have a worksheet that I use to store several static lists which populate various combo boxes in my application. However, I'd also like to use this worksheet to store a single column of data which can shrink or grow dynamically.
I have no problem with finding the last cell and adding data to that cell, but I'm having trouble with how to go about deleting the value of a single cell.
So as an example, If I've populated Cells A1:A10, and I want to delete the value that's in A6, how do I go about moving cells A7:A10 up one to fill in any empty spaces?
I have a file with 1000+ rows. The values in column A have text that I want to keep and then extraneous text tacked on. The good thing is the extraneous text ALWAYS start with the same characters. How can I systematically delete the extraneous text values at the end?
