Extracting Numbers From Cell Divided By Multiple Delimiters?
Jan 30, 2014
I would like to extract multiple numbers from a single cell. The cells contain -, /, and blank spaces are delimiters. An example is 4 - 3 1/4 and because of the way they use that number, it really means 4 inches and 3.25 fifths of an inch (3.25/5 inches) which is weird. I want to go through each cell and store the 4, 3, and 1/4 as variables so I can then manipulate to convert them to the proper inch value (I can perform the conversion code, I just need to know how to set those variables in the cell). And I would like it to automatically do it when a cell has been changed. formatting to maintain overall table width dimensions so if you know anything about that,
both cells are blank
4 - 3 1/4
cell value is enter in on the left
4 - 3 1/4
4.65
converted cell value appears on the left

I need to extract numbers from excel cells. For eg-
BAR TBG 04.00X02.25X26.50 1340 HRN SMLS SPEC. ES4.38694
^^^ This is one of the cells. I need to pull out 04.00, 2.25, 26.50, 1340 into different cells from one given cell.
I have tried using =MID() function, but I need to make changes into that formula everytime the position of first numeric letter changes while I go along a column. And I need to make changes into it as I go along the row.
It is taking me a lot of time in extracting numbers from one cell into different cells and I am afraid that I will spend the rest of my life getting this stuff done.

In sheet lists I have a list of names and to the next column, I use 0ne 0f these threee options 1/3 OR 2/3 OR O(zero). So what I need is this When a user choose name from the combobox and then type numbers in textboxes, I d; like these numbers to transferd in data base column M, but if number of the specific customer in Lists Sheet is 2/3, then the 2/3 of the choosen numbers should transferred rounded to the nearest biggest number. Example: If I choose Maria, and type 30--10--15--25--40, in text boxes, then numbers 20---7--5-17--27, should transfer in database column M.
If i choose Stevens, then numbers should tranfered as ii is. No chance.

I am trying to consolidate an .835 raw text file that is full of receipts and payments into rows by specific values/characters. Once opened within notepad/text format, I figured out that the ~CLP is the referencing value/character used to break up each individual payment.
I need to somehow use the ~CLP as the value(s) to sort the text into new rows, with each row pre-leading with the ~CLP.
For example:
~CLP*442.24*DTM*B6*PR~CLP*124.32...etc
New Row format needed:
~CLP*442.24*DTM*B6*PR
~CLP*124.32

I have a column within a spreadsheet that has data separated by 2 delimiters, a "" and a "/". (This data has been extracted from a linux-based file.)
For example: "1100789/3200899/6xlm-sgt-455-0987"
The items of data are from a bill of material (parts explosion) and the number preceding the "" is a quantity and the numbers preceding the "/" is a sub-part number of the main part number that is entered into a column to the left of this data string. (unseen in the example)
I need to take this string of numbers and place the quantity in one column, the part number in another column, then add a row and continue to populate each column until the data has all been separated, then move on to the next main part number row to continue the process.
for example:
1 100789
3 200899
6 xlm-sgt-455-0987
Is this possible with the data tools in a spreadsheet, or will I need to write a macro?

We are changing management systems here and in order to do so we need to provide the names and addresses of over 400 different people. Our current management system stores people's addresses as a whole for example; 32, Example Street, Town, County, Postcode.
I cant extract just the numbers because I only need the house number and not the postcode.
After searching several forums I thought I had solved it with this.
Cell A1 is the extracted address from current management system reading 32, Example Street, Town, County, IU13 8TY
Cell B1 is =LEFT(A1, SEARCH(" ",O15,1))
Cell C1 is =SUM(MID(0&B1,LARGE(ISNUMBER(--MID(B1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(B1))),1))*ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(B1))),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(B1))))+1,1)*10^ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(B1)))/10)
That only gives me the number "3" though and I need 32.
Basically A1:A400 will be addresses as above and in cell B1:B400 I need just there house number at the start.

Column C is the tricky one. It comes from the bank and somewhere in there is a 4-digit tenant reference. I did a formula to try and isloate it and it worked on most but if you look at the very first row, there is a spurious 99 in there, so it didn't work. Is there a way of EXTRACTING the first four consecutive numbers and placing them in another cell?

Here is an example
Column A: Column B:
Row 1: Walmart 7886 1540.12 1540.12
Row 2: Walgreens 7886 37.95 ?
Row 3: Exxon Moble 7886 86.37 ?
I need to extract the number (regardless of the amount of characters) signified by the "." Another words, I need a formula that will give the the answers of the following in column "B"
1540.12
37.95
86.37
These are the amounts spent. It would be easier if there was a "$" but theres not... so I need to find the "." and give me the numbers associated with it.

I'm trying to split a cell with 2 different delimiters.
As example
A1 10'48"
to
B1 10
C1 48
I have about 10.000 entries like those. And i think a macro should be the most suitable for it.
But I'm not experienced enough to make it work.

I have values in a column of cells in the format (All numbers in a single cell)
34567,43510,'1'
44049,99820,'1'
11124,37373,'1'
etc
up to ten such entries may appear in each cell with an arbitrary number in each cell. They were entered using the ALT+Enter method. Is there an easy formula to extract each row (such as 44049,99820,'1') to use in a formula. If there are two entries I would like to write two separate rows like:
LINE 34567,43510,'1'
LINE 44049,99820,'1'
If a macro would be required I understand and could use that also.

Is there a way either by VBA or manually (preferably both, if possible) to actually unite the X amount of numbers that are in a cell given the contents is alphanumeric? I'll give you the following examples to see if you can understand what I' referring to?
DATA output should be
asd67,h876 --------> 67876
2,3,ujdj5&34 -------> 23534
909k86m34 --------> 9098634

I have data stored in mixed cell that i need to extract to different cells.
Q/K code: AZVR Name: "AzVR" Ltd Nominal: 0.1 USD
R. Number: AZ3570011 Category: ABC
So i need each of AZVR, "AZVR" Ltd, 0.1, AZ3570011 and ABC in different cells. The characters could be in different lengths. Is there any formula that can find Q/K code in text then write characters after it until space or Name starts?

I import data from another program in order to evaluate it. Unfortunately, one of the fields I need contains copyright data, however, it has been very inconsistently entered into the database. For example, sometimes the data appears "c1999." or "-1999" or "" or "[1999]" or even "19?" and also sometimes "1999, 1990" and many other variations on that. I discovered the link in the excel help file about extracting numbers from alphanumeric strings, but my situation is still too variable for it to apply; that file didn't take into account that alphanumeric strings don't always lump numbers and letters together. I was able to correct a few things, but my command of excel isn't knowledgeable enough to really come up with something effective.
Some ideas I had that I don't know how to implement: is there a way to strip non-numerical characters from an alphanumeric string? (I've been doing some find/replaces to get rid of some of it, but that is obviously not very efficient when I have to repeat this process daily.) Perhaps then I could just detect the first 4 numbers of the string somehow. However, that doesn't solve the problem of when a wild card is used as in "199?" or "20?" etc.
Bottom line, I just need to grab the first four numbers that appear in the string (but NOT additional numbers that occur after a wild card or a space if the year was not completed in 4 numbers; in that case I'd just be happy with a null value).
I've been doing this with a formula so far. My only experience with macros has been in simply recording them, not actually writing them, but I'll give anything a try.

I'm trying to pull some numbers from another column. I want to pull the numbers that have an X separating them like 7X125, 48X192, and 27X90.
Example:
FA, VF-2000-3-7X125-18-A, AFS
FA, VF-2350-48X192-6-RGB, FC
FA, VF-2020-27X90-18-A,RFI, FEX, ACP, 2IT

I have a mass of data which look something like this:
table removed
and I require the ranges of reference numbers to be listed in a column one above the other, which requires inserting new rows. I also need the date & description columns copied down into the newly inserted rows.
So basically for example I would want the top row to now read:
table removed
and then apply the same procedure to the other ranges below this.

I need to separate text information from a cell into 3 columns (W,9-8). The first letter I know how to extract. The problem is to extract the number in the middle (1 or 2 digit) between "," and "-" and also the last number. For the last number I could use right() function but the problem is that number could be 1 or 2 digits so I can not specify in advance so formula would have to extract the last number till "-". Anyone knows how to do this?

I used this code to extract the value on the text: "11/09/09 backyard $400"
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("back",A4)),RIGHT(A4,LEN(A4)-FIND("$",A4))+0,"")
and return "400" but i've encountered a value which is negative (could be
-$400, or ($400); and i got an error of #value, could anyone resolve this problem?

I play an online browser game and I've made a spreadsheet for tracking various aspects of the game.
I do okay with the simple formulas and can haphazardly get excel to do what I want it to do. But for a few things I want it to do, I've run into a wall...
Here is the first one:
In the game, I receive reports like this:
One of your fleets (Large Cargo:5 ) returns from [2:100:9] to Planet [2:101:13] . The fleet is delivering 58.679 Metal, 28.750 Crystal and 11.521 Deuterium.
I want to be able to copy that, and past it into A1. Easy enough, but here's the tricky part. I want excel to be able to automatically extract the numbers in front of metal, crystal, and deuterium into their own separate fieilds. So that in this instance B1 would display 58,670, C1 would display 28,750, and D1 would display 11,521.
The amounts can vary anywhere from 1 to 9,999,999 (but there will be no negative numbers), and in some cases the number would end in 0 (I've seen where that makes a difference in some formulas for some reason).
If it makes it easier, the copy/paste could be reduced to:
The fleet is delivering 58.679 Metal, 28.750 Crystal and 11.521 Deuterium.

I have not managed to find exactly what I am looking for so far..
I have cells with a mix of numbers and strings and I would like to extract certain numbers only.
I.E.
123a bcd8
acbd 1234e
I would like to only extract the first instance of numbers - so in example 1 - 123 and in example 2 - 1234. I have found various methods of extracting all numbers such as:
Function ExtractNums(r As String) As String
'Creates and returns a reference for a regular expression object
With CreateObject("vbscript.regexp")
'Sets the pattern to be non-digits
.Pattern = "D"
'We want to find all matching non-digits
.Global = True
'Replace all non-digits with an empty string and return this value for the function
ExtractNums = .Replace(r, "")
End With
End Function

I need help extracting numbers from text. In column A, I have a list containing entries like this:
0005 Nurseries — propagation and cultivation of nursery stock
0016 Orchards — citrus and deciduous fruits
0034(1) Poultry Raising
0034(2) Sheep Raising and Hog Farms
0035 Florists — cultivating or gardening
The list goes on for about 800 rows.
In column J, I have this forumula:
{=LEFT(A1,MATCH(2,1/ISNUMBER(MID(A1,ROW(A2:A100)-ROW(A1),1)*1)))}
It works great, except the result includes the left parenthesis: for example, J3 = "0034(1". Is there a way to obtain just the numeric value ("00341")?
Also, is there another formula I can use in column K that will do the opposite and extract only the text? For example: K1 = "Nurseries — propagation and cultivation of nursery stock" and K3 = "Poultry Raising".
