Excel - Parsing Numeric Data From Table Into Separate Columns
Nov 18, 2013
100% Bran Nabisco 70 130 10 5 6
AlI-Bran Kellogg 70 260 9 7 5
All-Bran w/Extra Fiber Kellogg 50 140 14 8 0
I am having trouble parsing the numeric data from the following table into separate columns. The five different numbers (ex. 70, 130,10,5,6 in the first row) represent nutritional info about the product. As you can see, the number length varies for the different categories. How to get these 5 numbers into their own columns using LEFT, RIGHT, MID, FIND, etc. functions.

I have a spreadsheet that gathers information from multiple cells and strings the data into a long string - each piece of data broken by a comma in the string.
In another spreadsheet, I copy this data string into column A on sheet 1 - starting on row 2 and down.
On sheet 2 - and this is where I need help - I would like to have a macro that will take each data string on Sheet 1 column A and parse it out into multiple columns but the same row on Sheet 2.
ColumnA Row2 Sheet1 -> changing to many columns on Sheet2 but still on the same row.
The data string always represents the same number of data components - its just a matter of breaking it out and placing each data piece into its own column.

Is it possible to aggregate data in a pivot table from different categories?
I have excel 2003.
For PURE illustration, I have 6 columns, A-F, respectively:
"TV Show", 4 columns for names of people who watched the show (Persons 1, 2, 3, and/or 4), and finally, the duration / "Time" of the show.
I want to see in a final output:
Anytime a person has watched the show (whether i have penned him in columns 1, 2, 3 or 4), Excel to aggregate the total hours watched by that person.
When i try to do this with my pivot table i run into an error: if Person A watched "TV Show X" in row 1 and his name is in the Person 1 Column, Excel will not aggregate his TV time with "TV Show Y" in Row 2 when his name is in the Person 2 column.
It will sum up the categories separately even if the "Person" inputs in the separate "Person" columns are exact matches.

a smart formula (no VBA) that will reverse the order of a list of names - parsing into separate columns.
The formula needs to be able to recognize/distinguish that if a comma(s) is present, then the names are listed as last, first middle. If there is a period this means the name has a middle initial or that a suffix is present. So,if the names are listed as last, first and middle then in the next columns will have in the proper order first name, middle name or initial (keep the period) and last name (loosing the comma of course).
If the original name order is in normal order - first middle and last then the formula should just pass through without any change. Would need to preserve generational titles such as Jr., Sr., III etc. Not sure where the best place for the generational titles should end up. Probably as part of the last name. See examples:
Col ACol BCol CCol D Col E
William J. ClintonWilliam J. Clinton
Churchill, Winston Leonard Spencer Winston Leonard Spencer Churhill
Bates, JohnJohn Bates
James Knoll PolkJames Knoll Polk
Taft, William H.William H. Taft
Carter, James, Earl, Jr.James Earl Carter Jr.
Rockefeller, John Davidson, IVJohn Davison Rockefeller IV
Gates, William, H., IIIWilliam H. Gates III
St. James, Michael, Ken Michael Ken St. James

I tried using many variations of FIND, SEARCH, LEN and searching all the Excel boards to no avail.

I have a text file which is attached as "rawdata". It contains records of something (let's call it temperature) at different times on different days. My goal is to display a graph of temperature versus time so that I can visually analyze trends. I have hundreds of these files, all of different lengths. it is very important that I automate this process as much as possible.
Detail: (Here I describe what I have done so far; if this is inefficient or unnecessary, feel free to tell me) I open Excel 2010, click File, Open, and select the file that I want to parse. It is a TXT file, so the Text Import Wizard comes up. For step one, I select Fixed Width. I select File Origin: MS-DOS (PC-8). On step 2 of the wizard, I create column break lines to place all dates in the far left column. The next column contains the first column of numbers before the first dash (-). The next column contains only the dash - I will later select "ignore this column" to eliminate them. The next column contains the time stamps. I continue adding column breaks in the wizard until all of the data are parsed into columns in the same manner.
In step 3, I format the first column as "date (DMY)". The columns with the dashes I select "do not import". Everything else is "general". I click "finish", and the resultant workbook is attached, called "import".
Now, as to what I want to do: I want to display the "temperatures" as a graph vs a date/time axis. The reason I find this difficult is because the temperatures and times are not in neat columns, but are in 4 columns that go in a left-to-right and top-to-bottom progression and are broken up every few lines. (I am interested only in numbers that are displayed immediately to the left of a time-stamp. Therefore, the "record #"s should be ignored. We can delete the rows that say "record #" if can be done automatically.)

I have four columns of data, as follows:
label 1, value 1, label 2, value 2
I need to create a formula in the fith column that for each line will tell excel to:
look for entry in 'label 1' in 'label 2' if there is a match, then subtract value 1 from value 2, display result.
I have tried doing this with SUMIF but am getting nowhere fast....

Have an Excel 2010 spreadsheet with 902 email addresses in one column, and 927 email addresses in other column, sorted in alphabetical order.
Overview: Organization database has 902 Members (some have 2 email addresses subscribed to listserv) and Organizational Listserv which has all 927 (Difference is numbers are some members have 2 email addresses subscribed) BUT 902 of emails should be the same
Objective to compare Listserv Members 927 with Database Members 902. I am trying to isolate the email addresses which do NOT exist in Listserv Column, or who do not exist in Database Column for Audit purposes. All Members from the Database column should be subscribed or entered into the Listserv column.
If it's a perfect world the 902 email addresses will all be exactly the same as 902 out of the 927 Listserv email addresses.
Trying to highlight or sort and put identical email addresses on same line or using Conditionally formatting? Highlight Cell Rules/Duplicate cell rules Even when same email addresses are on the same row conditional formatting does not recognize them.

I'm using Excel 2003 and I need to calculate the number of occurrences on according to different criteria in two separate colums.
I am on Sheet 3 and the data I am analyzing is on Sheet 1, titled "RATES". I wish to know how many occurrences are when the word "GB" appears on column B (cells B2 to B100) along with a value greater than zero on column M (cells M2 to M100). The word "GB" does not appear alone but is part of a string of text with different words, I think this is relevant.

I have a question about using conditional formatting in excel (2010); I made a table with the following columns:
"Supplier Name" "Supplier Lead Time" "Internal Lead Time" "Total Lead Time". I made two different scenarios to show different supplier lead times and different internal lead times, and used the minimum function in the "Total Lead Time" column to find the smallest total lead time to select the best supplier.
The last thing I would want to do with this set of data, is plug in a formula that would somehow indicate which supplier corresponds to the shortest total lead time (which supplier has the smallest supplier lead time). I'd like to be able to use a formula that enters the name of the supplier in a designated cell, which I could indicate as the "Preferred Supplier" cell. If this is not possible perhaps there is a way to highlight the supplier's name with conditional formatting?

However I have a subject at uni that requires me to create a series of regression models, histograms, correlation matrices etc.
For part of the assignment, i have to run 4 regressions (one for men & one for women) with dependent variable as average wages, and independent as bfast 1,2,3 and dinner 1,2,3 (all of which are dummy variables) (0 for male and 1 for female).
The second two regressions are exactly the same, except average wages must be transformed into log which i have already done.
I dont know how to differentiate the regression models into male and female (if possible). We must also include residuals and residual plots.
I keep getting an error that says non-numeric data, the other says input range must be a contiguous reference.

I am working on a workbook, it's not my workbook so I can't change how it's laid out.
I am trying to figure out a way that excel will check 2 different columns for a code that is manually entered, then enter the codes description in another cell.
It's basically a deposit and expense ledger.
One column has expense codes and names, the other deposit codes and names.
I want to be able to enter the code letter into a cell in the ledger and excel will enter the code description into another cell.

I have text in column A and text in column B. I would like to create column C and place the number 1 in each row whenever columns A and B contain the text I am looking for. I could then use C to filter all the 1's with ease (by way of macro or the autofilter). In my problem, column A contains the following text per cell:
B
B
B-A
B-A
B-V
B-V
Column B contains:
THR
THR-MATT
HF-MATT
HS-HS-THR
HS-MATT
I need to filter based on column A having the letter "A", or column B having the word "MATT". Columns A and B do not have to contain both "A" and "MATT", respectively, in order for column C to have a 1.

I'm trying to set up a macro which will import data from one worksheet to a master sheet. I need it to copy the information into specific columns but not overwrite any existing information which is already in the Master Sheet, but I don't even know where to begin.
Just so you're clear on exactly what it is I'm trying to do... I have a Master Sheet which lists all of our suppliers prices, margins etc etc... However, when we use a new supplier we send them a greatly condensed version of the Master Sheet - We call it the Supplier Sheet (no big surprises there)!
When the supplier sends it back to me I have to type it all out manually which is kinda time consuming. I'd really like to set up a "push button" system which allows me to simply drag the Supplier Sheet into the workbook, add the info into the Master Sheet, then be able to delete the now useless Supplier Sheet.
(I have attached a test copy of the file - all of the columns in blue are the ones which need the data adding to).

I have data in two columns on the same sheet that I need to transpose into rows on a separate sheet (same workbook). One problem is that I need to reference off one of these columns (column B - in Sheet "Gp Trg Plan") as the number of lines will vary.
Example - Sheet "Gp Trg Plan"
Column B Column D
Tower Module 1
Tower Module 2
Tower Module 3
Building Module 1
Building Module 8
Street Module 6
Ideally the row will look like.
Example - Sheet "Status WS"
Column A Column B Column C Column D Column E Column F Column G
Gp Name Sub Gp Person 1st Mod Date 2nd Mod Date
There is an undefined amount of training modules (columns D in Sheet "Gp Trg Plan"), but no more than 10.

I have a glossary with 400+ rows in column A. See examples below. I'd like to separate them so that the term is in column A and the definition is in column B. Once Done I will not need the . Normally instead of that tag I would have a hyphen separate the term from definition but the fact that some terms have a hyphen like "D-VHS" was throwing me further. In the end I will not need a separator because everything will be in separate cells.
