Extract Data Between Parentheses?

Apr 2, 2013

I have a long list beginning either with 4 numbers or 4 numbers followed by parentheses and a single number between them. I have this formula to extract the data between parentheses:

Code:
=MID(A7,FIND("(",A7)+1,SUM(FIND({"(",")"},A7)*{-1,1})-1)

What can I do to eliminate a "#VALUE!" result for cells that do not contain parentheses?

Extracting Data From File In Directory And Extracting Filename

Mar 20, 2014

I have a directory folder with an active workbook and another workbook id like to copy data from. The Following macro opens up a file in the same directory, copies some data and pastes it in the active workbook. However with this code I have to specify the filename, 'Data.xlsm' in the example code. I would like it to copy data from the only other workbook in the current directory WITHOUT having to specify the name in the code, so just opening it up no matter what filename it has.

In addition I would like to extract the filename from the workbook im copying data from and paste it into the activewoorkbook in sheet 1 Cell A1. I had a look at getopenfilename function but cant seem to make it work for my purpose.

What Does (3) And (1) Mean In Parentheses

Feb 5, 2014

What does the (3) and (1) mean in the parentheses?

The (3) is sloppy coding instead of using the enumeration (xlUp), which you could actually read. The (1) means the first element of the range, which is wholly redundant; it already refers to a single-cell range.

Copy Text Within Parentheses From One Cell To Another

Oct 20, 2012

I want to do something similar but it is looking for values between parentheses "()" and won't work with the VB suggested. I've seen some other formulas that do find the content within the parentheses but returns #VALUE! if there is not a parentheses in the field. I'd like it to copy the original value of A2 into B2 for those instances. PROBLEM: Database with First Names in A2 where some have "nicknames" entered within () and I need a clean column of values to use. "IF A2 contains () then copy (contents) into B2, else copy A2" is how I'd write in english... not sure how to do correctly in code/vb.

VB:
Sub PartialText()
Dim MyValue$
Dim ChangedValue$

[Code]....

Removing Parentheses From Text Cell

Jan 3, 2013

An externally generated CSV file gives us one column which shows a location, year and then individual names in brackets, like so:

London 2013 (Firstname Lastname)
Delhi 2012 (Firstname Lastname)

I'm wondering if it is possible to separate out the text before the parentheses, so that I can show "London 2012" (for example) in another cell. The number of characters changes from row to row, so using the LEFT and RIGHT functions doesn't quite do the job.

Parentheses For Negative Percent Results -

Jul 15, 2002

I have been able to format single cells to display negative percents (Budget to Actual hours), but I cannot copy the formatting to cells with positive percents without eliminating the format style I want. [I need to display, with the parenthesis, (13.6%)for negative results, but say, 18.6% for positive results.] When I copy the correctly formatted cell (13.6%) to another cell with a positive result, it sets the display to general formating.

As I have over 25 rows of data to compare against 62 projects and 12 programs, with each value potentially changing from one analysis to the other, I am looking for a method to automatically change the "look" of the results. I have looked at conditional formatting, but have had no indication this will do what I am looking for.

Goal Seek VBA Syntax - With / Without Parentheses

Nov 25, 2008

I've been playing around with GoalSeek in VBA because of this thread and found something about the syntax that I don't understand.

If I want to find out whether GoalSeek worked, I can use

Ok = Range("B1").GoalSeek(Goal:=10, ChangingCell:=Range("A1"))
Debug.Print Ok
This requires parentheses around the GoalSeek arguments.

If I just want to do the GoalSeek, then I need

Range("B1").GoalSeek Goal:=10, ChangingCell:=Range("A1")
with no parentheses. Why? The Help says that GoalSeek returns True if it works, and the proforma syntax includes parentheses, but then the only example uses the syntax without parentheses.

Remove Numbers & Brackets In Parentheses

Oct 11, 2007

I tried to use the find and replace function to delete different numbers from different cells (all in one column) but the problem is that I want to delete different kind of numbers.

Let me give you an example:

Starting point:

Cell A1: Bookrunner: Barclays Capital(368.726m)
Cell A2: Bookrunner: DBS(368m)
Cell A3: Mandated Arranger: Commonwealth Bank of Australia (Singapore)(367.163m)
Cell A4: Mandated Arranger: DnB NOR ASA (Singapore)(367.163m)

I want to reach here:

Cell A1: Bookrunner: Barclays
Cell A2: Bookrunner: DBS
Cell A3: Mandated Arranger: Commonwealth Bank of Australia (Singapore)
Cell A4: Mandated Arranger: DnB NOR ASA (Singapore)

(I don’t want the information in “()” like “(Singapore)” to be deleted! Only the “()” which contains numbers)

I used the “find and replace” function to delete ever single number, but I think it’s a little unprofessional to do so!

Nesting IF Statements: Use Of Isblank Or Lack/placement Of Parentheses

Jun 2, 2009

I'm trying to nest if statements that also include "and" and "isblank" factors. The following formula isn't working, and I'm not sure if it's because of my use of isblank or lack/placement of parentheses.

Formula For Removing Text Within Multiple Sets Of Parentheses?

May 22, 2014

Any formula for removing text within multiple sets of parentheses?

I would like to take something like this: Compared with placebo, dimethyl fumarate was shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with MS in the phase 3 DEFINE (Gold R et al. N Engl J Med. 2012; 367:1098-1107) and CONFIRM (Fox R et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;367:1087-1097) trials. Common adverse effects associated with dimethyl fumarate that were observed in these trials included flushing and GI events, as well as decreased lymphocyte counts and elevated liver aminotransferase levels.

and have it read: Compared with placebo, dimethyl fumarate was shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with MS in the phase 3 DEFINE and CONFIRM trials. Common adverse effects associated with dimethyl fumarate that were observed in these trials included flushing and GI events, as well as decreased lymphocyte counts and elevated liver aminotransferase levels.

I wish to automate this task so formulas (if possible) are preferred. Totally cool with a multi-formula, many-columned solution - as long as this task is automated.

NB: Each cell will contain different text, so the sets of parentheses will appear in different places. The number of parenthetical sets may also vary from 1-5.

Editing Formula Shows Text All Red, Parentheses Color-coded

Oct 20, 2007

But the formula seems to be working properly.

I've got ALOT of parentheses, 5 nested IFs, 5 ANDs, 4 ORs. The ANDs and ORs are within the IFs.

While editing the formula, I can, at times, achieve the condition where the cell references become color-coded. Or at least some of them do. But, when I get to this point, I'm usually at a spot where I can see the formula isn't right.

I'm confused. What does it mean when my text is all red when I go to edit a formula? Did I hit some limit? Again, I don't get error messages and the formula seems to work properly.

Extracting Data From A Website

Jul 30, 2013

I am trying to extract data from a website:

[URL] .....

I looked at the source code of the website and realized that if you notice (above) that the variables listed in the link (i.e year, month, day) are exactly what i need to change in order to get the data for a specific date. how can I accomplish this using VBA. so say I have in on an excel sheet year in column A, month in column B, and days in column C (time interval is constant so we don't have to worry about stime and etime). and i run the macro and it loops through each row taking year,month,day for all rows and saving the data as .csv or xls files?

Extracting Data With The Criteria Specified?

Aug 4, 2014

I have created a table of data with Serial No, Name, Age & Common Friends field. Now i need to extract all the data (complete Row item) where the condition matches a certain criteria. Basically a formula or function which will say what are the names of people along with all other corresponding fields (Age & Common friends) who have common friends as "Jill" or "Jack" (For example). Note : I cannot use filter option and copy/paste the filtered data in new sheet as i am working with thousands of data items. Due to the nature of report software/data extraction report, multiple data items appear in single cell only (Multiple friends name appear in single cell).

VLOOKUP Not Extracting The Data

Jan 7, 2009

I have a problem with VLOOKUP not extracting the data I need from 1 workbook.

I want to populate 4 different sheets in the "108" workbook with data from the "1st" workbook. I've uploaded the workbooks to show the formulas I have already. The data in "1st" workbook changes daily and can have upwards of 2000 rows. I've simplified the list for the example.

In the "108" workbook I want to fill in the first three columns with the formula down to about row 500.

I've tried different formulas to do this using EXACT, MATCH, and VLOOKUP but to no avail.

Data Extracting...Not Counting.

Feb 1, 2010

In one cell i have a dropdown. Depending on what is in that dropdown, i want a table of data to be written. I'm not too hot with pivot tables but my understanding is that is predominantly to do with counts. This is more of a multiple vlookup i guess. I want to pull from a list of data (3), all the cases matching the dropdown (1) and deposit into a list (2). What is the best way of doing this? I don't want to use filters. See attached.

Extracting Data Using INDEX

Aug 4, 2009

I am using INDEX functions to extract up to 2 items of data which I now need to extend to upto 6 items.

The spreadsheet shows a list of staff initials and a day by day work rota of (M)ornings, (A)fternoons, (N)ights and (O)ffs. What I am needing to do is to identify only those staff who are rosterred Off and to place those intials in the two sets of colored cells in rows 5 and 7.

The attached spreadsheet, Tester1.xls shows the 2 existing INDEX functions in use. These can only detect the first occurrance of "O" and the next. I now need to be able to extend this functionality to cover all "O"'s in both section 1 and section 2. So, eg if 12 Aug is input to B15, I can only select IB and GG, but I now want to be able to see MG in the next blue cell.

how I can extract data from a non-linear line graph to be used in a calculation. The graph will be made based on user input data and the values to be obtained will not be entered, but read off the graph. Again, it is non-linear, and while it could be log-normal data, it may not be any particular function. Basically, I want the program to read off an x-value for a particular set of defined y-values.
