Extract Middle Text
Jan 10, 2007
I want to write a macro that is able to copy the 5th position to the 10th position characters from one cell to another. For example, in Cells(B1) contains: Mon Jan 8 09:00:02 2007. Then I want to copy "Jan 8" to Cells(A1). How do I do that? Also, i am not supposed to hardcode the cells. The codes should look something like that
start = InputBox....
end = InputBox...
For i = start To End
Cells(i,"A").Value = (whatever Function To copy 5th To 10th char of Cells(i,"B")).......
Next i

I have a several hundred rows of data that are telephone line type, number and user name all concatenated. This is the way the data arrives. I need to extract the number and user name into 2 separate columns - I do not need the phone type. Is there a formula that can identify numbers within text. I can't use Text to Columns as the leading telephone line type varies and I don't want to use VBA to do the work. There are at least 10 different line types, example of some:
SPECTRUM TIPT 0740357052 LUNCH ROOM
SPECTRUM ANALOGUE 0744076642 J BROWN
EXCHANGE LINE (PSTN/PSTN) 0742031346 HAYES SUB
FAXSTREAM DUET 0742003232 NORTH SUBSTATION
M/BANK (Spectrum) 0740318578 MB TO 4429
P PHONE (TELSTRA) 0744074159 B WILLIAMS
WITHIN ANALOGUE 0784625967 I MAKIT
the following phones start witn an "N"
PRIVATE LINE (PAPL) N7035896P ROTHMANS SUBSTATION
PRIVATE LINE (VGDL) VOICE LINK N7563069P P BLACK
PRIVATE LINE 2 WIRE PREMIUM (PAPL) N70079 FITZGIBBON G
PRIVATE LINE 4 WIRE PREMIUM (PAPL) N70335 SUBS SSKLB
Can this be done or will I have to resort to code.

I need to extract text from the middle of a cell. I know you can use the MID function but with the complete function as i need to extract text string from Name to the end of their full name (I have highlighted below in bold). Of course their full name will change in each row.
Example text in cell B2: ID: 197993043 Name: Ben Fred Company: ID: 197992821 Name: Hello World!
A2 cell: =MID(B2,15,??????

I have a text string with 3 data to be extracted and then split throu range, but only specific parts is needed.
string is like that:
Name Surname - Number : ################ - Exp : YYMM - Centre etc etc....
Lets say its allways happens in cell A3, for example:
Adrian Kukuwas - Number : 1235467890123456 - Exp: 1009 - Centre... I would like a macro:
*that runs only if string starts with a letter, then if so
*takes Adrian Kukuwas to cell D3
*takes 1009 (the exp) to B3 and makes it look like 09 10 (or 09_10)
*in A3 leaving only the number 1235467890123456 text formated (sometimes the copy source formats the cell for bad)

I'm trying to create a VB Script for an AS/400 app. It's all written but I'm trying to feed the data for part from an excel file. If B5 was 10 I need the final output in my cell to read:
autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys "10"
Here is my current formula ="autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys"""""&B5*100&""""""
It's reading as autECLSession.autECLPS.SendKeys""10"" which has two sets of quotes not just one and no space between sendkeys and "10"

I am looking for a formula to remove the text 2.2 from the string Rav4 2.2 D-4d X or 1.33 out of Yaris 1.33 Vvt etc, I have tried using the formula
=IF(P2="","",VLOOKUP("*"&P2&"*",AM$1:AN$25,2,1))
But it just keeps returning #N/A. I have all the variables outlined in cells AM$1:AN$25 hence the reference. I currently have the formula
=IF(P2="","",VLOOKUP(P2&"*",AK$1:AL$25,2,1))
Which is working perfectly @ finding and returning the start of the string but just cannot get the one to find the middle characters.

I have a set of task descriptions that I am attempting to trend on. Some of these (Column B) have the customer's name added to the description; others do not. I need to be able to make a list of task names (ColumnA), removing the name from the text string.
The formula I am using is [=LEFT(B3,FIND("for",B3)-2)].
The problem I am having is when the description does not contain the "for" built into the formula, I get "VALUE" error. What adjustment can I make to the formula to pull over the Description if the "for" does not appear in the text string?

An original text string entry appearing in an Excel cell would be:
"N7C Neuroprotective J5Z Antiviral, other M2Z Antiarthritic, other J5A Antiviral, anti-HIV"
I need to extract N7C, J5Z, M2Z and J5A from this string and list these alphanumeric values in separate cells adjacent to the original text string. The challenge is that these alphanumeric references may appear in different positions within the original string with no fixed value e.g. a "," separating them. The alphanumeric references may also be 3 or 4 characters in length and there may be different numbers of alphanumeric references in the original string.
Another example would be (very different from the first):
"T2Z Recombinant, other K5B Radio-chemoprotective J3Z Antibacterial, other D3A Vulnerary A10C Symptomatic antidiabetic K6Z Anticancer, other R8A Antiasthma B6A Septic shock treatment I1Z Immunostimulant, other S1Z Ophthalmological R8B Antiallergic, non-asthma M1A1 Anti-inflammatory"
You can see that in this further example "A10C" & "M1A1" are 4 character alphanumeric strings wheras the others feature 3 characters.

I had VBA run a third-party program ("HYD") using data listed in my spreadsheet. HYD produces a textfile and I want to extract a number from that log (line 58, columns 6-10 to be exact).
I started with
Open "C:TempHYDLOG.TXT" For Input As #1
but I don't know how to have it skip down to line 58 or which function to use to extract the number I want. I've read through tons of help files and forums but none of them treat anything as simple as scrolling down to specific lines.
The entire subroutine up to that point is as follows: ....

Code:

I have a cell in my worksheet with a fully qualified filename like 'D:abcDefGHIJklxyz123.app
I would like to extract only the xyz123.app. Obviously, the number of characters is going to vary based on the filename. The find and search functions appear to locate the cell but not the substring in the text. The right and left appear to work based on number of characters and in my case these are varying. Also, there does not appear to be any function that can do a search a string from right to left.

So let's say the following text is in cell A1:
Scott Feldman (hou) - throws R vs. ari - 8:10 PM ET - Minute Maid Park RotoGuru ESPN MLB Yahoo BB-Ref FanGraphs
What formula would I need in cell B1 to return "Minute Maid Park" But if possible don't return anything after that text starting with the word RotoGuru?
Best way it looks like is to find the 3rd " - " and take whats to the right of that?

I need to be able extract a string from within a longer string. The information I want will always start 5 chracters in and be bordered by an underscore either side, but could be of any length. For example in the following string, I would want to extract WF602.

I've been looking at the RegExp functions but can envisage problems with this as later parts of the string (WR34) have the same form as the part I need.

Any formula that can extract from a time stamp text string, which looks as follows: 7/8/2013 7:10:33 AM.
The tricky bit is saying anything before the first "/" represents the month, anything between the 1st and 2nd "/" represent the date, and the 4 digits after the second "/" represents the year.
