Extract Numeral/s Between Characters?

Dec 29, 2013

I would like to extract any numerals between the comma and colon. (Format is text)

Example: 8 Dec, 1:52PM (1 to show in another cell)

Format is always the same but date/day & hour may change. (Hence changing number of characters depending on day and time.)

Example: 11 Dec, 10:49AM (10 to show in another cell.)

Find 1st Cell With Numeral, Then Offset.

Apr 21, 2008

How would I find the first cell in column A containing a number, like HY42128PP, and then offset 1 row up from there to start my autofilter?

Also, to copy the worksheet headings, what code would copy all rows from row 1, down to 2 rows above the first cell in column A containing numbers, and insert those rows in another sheet?

Extract Data Between Two Characters?

Feb 3, 2012

In column M I have data that lists a number, then number of metres between brackets. For instance

Column M
11 (79m)
1 (5m)
22 (123m)

Basically what I want to do is to always return the number of metres without m, so the data between "(" and "m".

I tried to do this using the find and mid formulas, but I either haven't got it quite right. I'm only after a spreadsheet solution (not VBA).

Extract Characters To The Right Of Symbol

Oct 8, 2013

Data in field A1 currently appears as below.

8/10

I want to extract everything to the right of the "/" in a new field.

The formula that I am using is =RIGHT(A1,FIND("/",A1)-1)

For some reason, I am only receiving a 0 in the new field and not the 10 that I expect.

What's odd is that the formula is working as intended on every other field except this one.

Extract First & Last X Characters From Cells

Sep 28, 2006

Column A in Excel has loads of numbers all in this format 971-417. I need to have each of those two numbers in a separate cell from each other(and without the hyphen of course).

Column A Needs to be: Column A Column B
971-417 971 417

In short, I'm looking for a quick way to put each number in its own cell for hundreds of rows. Are there formulas I can use to do this or does it have to be done slowly, one at a time, stripping the information from one cell to another?

Extract Text Characters Only From A Cell

May 6, 2009

This is very similar to my previous post, which was solved. Now that I've extract the numbers, I need to extract the text for the specific work activities, for example 13Z or 9GGG. I'm assuming some variation on this formula:

=LOOKUP(9.99E+307,--MID(C4,MIN(FIND({1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0},C4&1234567890)),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(C4)))))

is the solution, but I'm struggling with making the correct alterations.

Extract Trailing String Of Characters From A URL

I have a problem that I just don’t seem to have the brain power to solve right now. I have a list of websites and I need to extract all characters after the last “/” in the URL. URL example:.....

I have been using the find function in conjunction with LEN and RIGHT etc but the multiple instances of “/” is causing headaches for me. Also, the trailing string of characters that I want to extract can be both text or numeric and are of differing lenths.

Extract Left Characters Up Until Specified Text

Nov 10, 2006

I am attempting to utilize the Mid, Left, and Right functions to parse out data returned in a single cell. There are twelve months of data returned with the "title" listed after. I would like to be able to FIND the title and return a specific number of characters of data to the LEFT not the right (as Mid seems to do).

EX.

Cell A1{ 1 2 4 5 3 5 TITLE1 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 TITLE2 3 4 5 2 4 5 TITLE 4 }

Cell A2{ 1 2 4 5 3 5 TITLE2 1 2 3 6 7 4 5 TITLE3 3 4 5 2 4 5 TITLE 4 }

I would like to be able to search each cell for the "TitleX" then parse data out to the left of that title (and if not found, return "").

There are too many different Titles to use IF statements and I cannot change that the data comes to the left of the title.

Extract Numeric Value Based Upon Ending Characters

Jan 10, 2014

I have a list of numbers in which I need to return the last 5 digits; the length of the string may vary.

However, if the last two digits of the number ends in a specific value then it should skip over the last two numbers and return the preceding 5 digits.

I have tried and have used the very basic Left, Right and Mid functions. My problem is I dont know how to code the formula to identify the last two digits and skip over them, if necessary.

I have provided an attached example.

I'm working with a large list of items of varying length. A sample worksheet is attached. I need to do the following:

1) If the characters after the final forward slash from the right are of the pattern "tttxxx" (where "t" is text and "x" is a number/digit), then return all characters to the right of the final slash, including the slash itself:

Y:/Series/hun/hun109 ----> /hun109

2) if the characters after the final slash from the right are not of the pattern "tttxxx", then return all characters after the second slash from the right, including the slash:

3) if there are less than 3 backslashes in the item, return a blank.

Character Extraction: Extract The Characters "9078.314" And Put Them In A Different Cell

Feb 5, 2007

Cell R2 contains this value: " Forecast Time: 240 Index A forecast = 9078.314". I want to extract the characters "9078.314" and put them in a different cell. The cell that it should be affected to depends on the characters "240". I believe I should use the MID() and VLOOKUP() functions but I get stuck at the very first step of extracting my data.

Extract String Between Characters After Specific String

Dec 22, 2013

I have the following type of info in A1,A2,A3...

Code:
nameGaryage40cityPittsburgheight190
age30height150
ameLindacityMichigan
citySan Jose
ameHarryheight180age50

My goal is to get as close as possible to this,so it will be easier to sort and manage

Code:
nameGaryage40cityPittsburgheight190
nameLindaage30cityMichiganheight150
nameHarryage50citySan Joseheight180

I can't use the "" sign as delimiter to separate them into different columns because the age,city,name and height fields are in random positions on different cells.The good thing is person's name will always come after "name" string, age is alwals followed by "age" string, so it cannot be like nameheight40Michigan180

I think the following would be the easiest method(not for me tho).If on B1 I had a formula that said "find the string "name" and write anything after it until you reach the next "" character".On C1 field I could have a formula "find the string "age" and write anything after it until you reach the next "" character.On D1 I would have the same for "height" string,then on E1 for city string.

My question is somewhat similar to this one

Take X Characters From One Cell And Y Characters From The Next?

Aug 1, 2014

So we have people's names in a table. First name in one column and last name in another column. We have a 3rd column where we can use 8 characters to do a combination of First 5 of Last Name + first 3 of first name. However, if someone's last name is only 3 or 4 characters, we'd then want to take more from the first name to fill out the 8 characters.

So:
Charles Johnson -> Johnscha
John Smith -> Smithjoh
Willian Wu -> Wuwillia

What's the best way to do that without creating some crazy formula with tons of if/thens?

Formula Cannot Go Above 255 Characters?

Jan 10, 2014

Ok so my formula simply wants to substitute a really long string of text with a blank cell. Problem is that the really long string of text goes over the 255 char limit for a formula.

How can I go about solving this problem. I think you could name the string of text as a variable such as "long text" and then use the substitute formula as such:

=SUBSTITUTE(A1,"long text", "")

Something like that? I don't know if it would work or the steps to name the variable.

Defining Name Over 255 Characters?

Feb 17, 2014

I'm trying to make a chart viewer on the first sheet of my spreadsheet and am using this website as a guideline, [URL] However instead of the 3 charts in the example, I have 12 which makes my formula for defining a name substantially longer.

By moving my charts to the same sheet and getting rid of the INDIRECT formulas, I shortened my formula to 291 characters which is too long as the limit is 255.

=IF($G$9="Sodium",$N$34,IF($G$9="Manganese",$N$35,IF($G$9="Iron",$N$36,IF($G$9="Nitrate Nitrite",$N$37,IF($G$9="Nitrite",$N$38,IF($G$9="Nitrate",$N$39,IF($G$9="PH",$N$40,
IF($G$9="Conductivity",$N$41,IF($G$9="Turbidity",$N$42,IF($G$9="Fluoride",$N$43,IF($G$9="Selenium",$N$44,$N$45)))))))))))

Is there any way to make my formula shorter? Or to reference a cell where I place the formula?
