Extract Uppercase Words From A Cell
Apr 23, 2014
I am looking for a formula that would extract uppercase words from a cell. I have cells containing this kind of sentences:
"FROZEN PRODUCTS;Frozen avocado;FROZEN FISH;SweeT things;"
so I started with this Macro to extract uppercases and punctuation:
Public Function majuscules(zone)
Dim sel As Object
Dim i As Integer
Application.Volatile
For Each sel In zone
[Code] ........
It works pretty well but gives all the uppercases, and what I want is only those of words fully in upper.
Is there a way to tweak this formula so it gives all the uppers that touch another upper.
In the example case, it should return:
"FROZEN PRODUCTS; ;FROZEN FISH; "
The little cherry on the cake would be if it could give me:
"FROZEN PRODUCTS; FROZEN FISH"

Formula that will convert uppercase words longer than three letters, into lowercase. Leaving the rest of the string unchanged?
For example,
Mary and John at IBM thought this was a GREAT OPPORTUNITY. Becomes:
Mary and John at IBM thought this was a great opportunity.
I have also tried using more func's REGEX.SUBSTITUTE but I couldn't get that to work either!

I have many cells that have full names in them. They are currently formatted as follows; last name, first name, middle name. I am trying to extract only the last name and first name (keeping the comma in between them) and drop the middle name.

If I have a cell filled with any number of given names (no surnames) (e.g. John Peter William Suffolk - yea, 4 names!, or Harry Murray (2)), how can I extract the first letter of each name (i.e., the first letter following a space) and place that in another cell? Say A1 has the names, B1 has the surname - I want this in C1. In D1 I'll use a function like Text or concatenate to link C1 and B1.

I'm running 2007, and have a mailing list that is setup - A1 = text(full name of company), A2 = text(full street address, city, state, zip) NO PUNCTUATION.
I have been able to separate each word for the address line, but this leaves me with many different length addresses spread out over different cells, so taking just the city state and zip is not feasible in large numbers. I have over 10,000 of these listed down column A1.
I need to be able to extract city, state, and zip, (There is no punctuation in the address line)and put them all in one cell, for the third line of the address box. I need them to cut from the source, also - leaving the source only the street address.

I am using the extract words function outline here [url]
I copied and pasted the function into a new sub and deleted the sub module1 and the end sub to make sure it is it own function I can call. I have called it in another macro I wrote and when I run the macro it bugs out at the first if statement. The code it has a problem with the Get_Word code below. It throws a "Run-time error: '1004': unable to get the Find property of the WorksheetFunction class."...

I need to extract all instances of words that have format xnnnnnn, where x is an alpha character (letter of alphabet, to be precise) and nnnnnn are numbers. The words could something like u435586. The problem is I do not know how many instances of these words are in the string. The entire string is contained in a cell. A sample string could be something like:
SMNTv922970;#1283;#SMNT 433925;#1284;#SQRS 003417;#1285;#SQRSp047683;#1286;#SMNT 6132451;#1287;#SQRSw3145627;#1288
and the end result should be
v922970 t433925 t003417 p047683 t6132451 w3145627
The words are preceded by the character "" which might facilitate the search.

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)

This is wrekcing my head as I'm sure it can be done with an Array formula and I cant seem to get it sorted -
Say I have 5 Rows of text starting in A2
"A quick word"
"A quick WORD"
"A"
"word"
"WORD"
I need an excel formula to say "False", "False", "False", "False", "TRUE".
All conditions to be met for TRUE are - Word must in uppercase, Uppercase Word must be longer than 1 character, Sentence (i.e. cell) can not contain a space. This is the path I've gone down, but almost certainly incorrect -
=IF( FIND(CHAR(64+COLUMN($A$1:$Z1)),$A$2,1),TRUE,FALSE)
[CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER]

I've been using conventional method to do this and it's time consuming. I would like to total up 2 column. A multiply B to be exact. Below are some examples:
Table 1 - Before totaling up:
Quantity
Product
5
2 x Button A White
3
4 x Button B Pink
4
5 x Ribbon A Black
2
3 x Thread A White
6
2 x Cloth A Blue
Table 2 - After totaling up:
Quantity
Product
10
Button A White
12
Button B Pink
20
Ribbon A Black
6
Thread A White
12
Cloth A Blue
I need to have the sum of the "Quantity" multiply "Product". Or in short A x B.
And the end result need to have the number and "x" sign removed while keeping on the the products names. (2 x ) Take note it's "number" space "symbol" space.

I am trying to find certain words in a column and delete the word and characters following. For example, Say I have a column of info as seen below. This is a test of me. I am just experimenting with this stuff. Deleted (6/15/01) Let me know what you think. I am not sure about it all, but I guess I will figure it out. riviledge1 (01/05/06) Now let's see what happens when I try to test it.
I want to find all the "Priviledge1 (01/05/06)" and replace with nothing. Please note, the date will change with each record, so I need to figure out how to tell Excel to find "Priviledge1", delete it and the date behind it. So I want to delete "Priviledge1" and the next 11 characters including the space.

On to the topic, I have all the US and Canadian states abbreviated (CO = Colorado, etc.) and was wondering if there is a way to make all of them convert to their respective names in one fell swoop instead of writing it in for each one, one at a time. Something along the lines where I can make, CO = Colorado, TX = Texas and then hit enter and all of the abbreviations would convert. Some kind of command.

I have tried Sumproduct and Countif and can not get a proper count of rows that contain specific words in multiple columns. I have attached an example spreadsheet where I am looking for a result of 7 rows that contain 1 to 4 specific words within phrases. The example looks for the words: "virus", "spyware", "malware" & "adaware", and ignores any other words like "aware" or "ware".

I have 4-5 separate lists of words/letters and I would like to combine them in a certain order but creating all possible combinations resulting a new word. It's like a conjugation tool for verbs. For example if List 1 = be/el/ki/meg; List 2= m List3=e/é; List4= gy/" "; List 5=" "/ek/sz/nnek So the output has to be (if the order is List1+List2+List3+List4+List5)= bemegy/bemegyek/bemegysz/bemesz/bemész/elmegy/elmennek/ ..... and all possible combinations.
Preferentially I would like to automate it in a way that it straight outputs into MS Access. Also can it be automated that it reads the list from a file (database)?
(Also can it recognize the word by letters? Because the basic word that I would load the program= List2+List3+List4)
