In column A, there are 13000 plus entries mixed with General and Text Formats.:
12234
1223
01234
the cell containing number starting with Zero is formatted as "text". The problem is that there are certain spaces given after some entries in certain cells. How those can be located and deleted.
I have 4 columns of text imported from a txt file, so the cells appear as:......
What I would like to do is combine the information from a row of cells into a new cell. For example:......
I can't seem to find a way to do it though. If I allow the cells to be imported as one cell (rather than 4) it inserts spaces between the groups of numbers, which I don't want.
I am using the following code to import an excel file into an existing sheet. The problem I am having is the way some of the cells are being imported. Some of the cells have spaces before and after the number.
I need to delete the leading and trailing spaces for each cell affected. Is there a code I can incorporate to do this? BTW…the columns effected are columns F & G.
Here's what I have.. (on a much smaller scale)

I have a couple of columns that look like this in basic form:
Column A Column B
A 1
B 1
C 0
D 2
E 1
F 0
G 2
What I want is in a separate worksheet for it to pull the names (A, B, E) that have 1s next to them in column B and put them in a list.
I could do this kinda manually, but how can I create a nice list in a separate column on a separate worksheet just of the names (column A values) where there is a 1 in column B? All I can think to do is vlookup the data and put blanks where its not equal to 1 and then manually delete out the other rows.
What the quickest way to get rid of trailing spaces from a column of imported data ?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI have a column of data. I would like to space this out so that each value is separated by two spaces.
E.g.
1
2
3
-->
1
2
3
I can do this manually (by inserting two cells), but I wondered if there is a way to do this automatically?
(I have a column organised with the spaces immediately to the left of the column I want to change.)
I'm in need of some VBA code (to be included in a Macro) that will automatically use the TRIM function for all cells in a whole column and that will then replace the values in that column with the resulting TRIM values. I have a LOT of individual files with varying #'s of records in them, so a way that will address all of them (all the cells in the specified column due to varying #'s of records) would be best.

I have a macro I found here on the boards written by Lenze to delete an entire row based on what is found in column A. I would like to delete any row where Col. B contains 10 or less characters and I have modified it to do so (or at least I think it does). My problem is that it takes about 12 minutes to run the macro (I have about 50k lines to run through). I was wondering if this is the fastest method or if it examines things other than just column B.
Sub Test()
Dim i As Long
LR = Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
For i = LR To 2 Step -1
If Len(Cells(i, "B")) < 11 Then Cells(i, "B").EntireRow.Delete
Next i
End Sub
After this runs, I am left with Columns A to somewhere around AH. The columns are generally in the format of text followed by a numeric column. An individual text column has the same name through all of the rows. The numeric columns have varied values whether negative or positive.
Ideally what I would like: If a given cell (ie. C2) in Row 2 is numeric, then copy the cell to the left (ie. B2) into (ie. C1) and then delete Column B. I need this to work for multiple columns from B to C, skip D and E, and then from F to AG (and maybe beyond).
Every AM I run a report that has ALL of our company order numbers from the 2 systems we use. I get those reports and put them into 2 columns. instead of manually inserting so they all match up, is there a way to do this automatically? ....

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 sheet with 3 columns, A B and C
column B has content such as:
term 1 (c: text a)
term 2
term 3
term 4 (c: text b)
etc.
desired output:
term 1
term 2
term 3
term 4
etc.
Can someone create a macro for me to delete the (c: ...) in Column B but leaves all of the other column data alone.
Does anyone have a utility which can be used to select a specific column i.e. B:B, which then 'selects' all duplicate values in that column prior to deleting them ?

I'm making excel macros for the first time and getting things figured
out, but I have a few questions:
What code do I use to delete columns that have all empty cells EXCEPT
the top cell (row 1) that contains any of a number of headings? I need
to insert this into an existing macro.
What code do I use to fill color every other row (preferably even numbered)
light grey after selecting a "currentregion" ? Again, to put inside an
existing macro.
A related question: When I find code help on the web, it usually
starts with "sub" and ends with "end sub" so how do I insert that into
an existing macro? It looks like a "sub within a sub" doesn't work.
I have many excel wordlist, which are being converted from other file formats. Now there are sometimes useless spaces before entries in the cells. There are also some times commas and other not needed signs at the beginning of a cell in a column.
I need a macro, which removes spaces, symbols, letters, numbers or combination of them from the beginning of all cells in a column. The symbols should be chosen before the macro starts its work.
For example:
Before running the first macro:
Column A
,Word1
,,Word2
Word3
,Word4
After running the macro the beginning should be cleaned from chosen symbols, spaces or signes. (in our example if a cell begins with , then the commas should be deleted).
Column A
Word1
Word2
Word3
Word4

I am trying to create a search function in a database I have made. I have a userform with drop down boxes that people can choose what they want to search for. Once they have chosen and clicked the search button I want it to search only in the relevant column, i.e. search for the word in the dropdown for "engine" only in the "engine" column of the database. Once it has found the appropriate cells with the answer, I want it to delete all other rows that don't include the answer.
Once it's done this it needs to do it again for the other fields, unless they are empty. I have used 'If engine_type <> "" Then' as the starting point so that it only searches chosen fields.
I've attached the sheet I'm working with. I need to delete most of column F and shift the rows to the left, but when I delete the cells it doesn't give me a prompt to shift the row, it just deletes the entire column or individual row. I need them to shift, what can I do?

I'm trying to get a VBA macro put together that would delete all the rows, throughout every sheet, and shift up wherever the cell in column A = "Delete Row" in a workbook I've made. In the below copy of the workbook you can see that a lot of the information from all the tables is linked to the topmost table on the 'Mix Detail Sheet'.
If the the Cell in column A is blank on that first table, its corresponding cells in tables throughout the workbook displays the words "Delete Row". I need the macro to delete the rows and shift everything up where this occurs.
Ideally I'd also like the macro to then delete the rows in that first table where the column A cells are blank.
I need the macro for deleting duplicate rows only it should keep one lowest value row.
for e.g.
Column A Column B

Macro will compair dublicates in column A & it will keep lowest value row (i.e. 50 value in Column B), other dublicate rows will be deleted.

I'd like to create a formula that pulls text between two spaces. For example:
"Execute Transaction ZZ01 " - I'd like the formula to output ZZ01
Execute Transaction is always at the beginning of the text I'd like to pull. So another example:
"Execute Transaction ZZ01_another_test " - I'd like the formula to output ZZ01_another_test
Execute Transaction can either be Execute Transaction or Execute transaction as well.
Is there an easy way to do this with a formula?
