I have a column of cells with similar to the following text.
First Marine Avenue 18 1303 11 1
There will always be a final 4 groups of text numbers, each with a space
between, but each having different number of numbers (this particular
sequence has 2,4,2,1 - but others may be different, but always 4 groups)
The true text ( a series of Road names are potentiaaly all different, having
a sequence of words that may be up to 5 words long before the numbers start)
I need to extract the 4 groups of numbers into seperate cells, leaving the
Road name text in a singe cell. I would then have a table of 5 columns, the
first the Road text, and the next 4 columns being the group of numbers, which
I would then format as numbers.
If I have some data in a cell (let's say D1) such as "m-3,s-2,xl-4", what formula can I use in say cell D2 so that if I find the characters "s-" in Cell D1, then it will return the value "2".
Similarly, in say in Cell D3, I would then want to use the same formula but modify it so that if the characters "xl-" are contained within Cell D1, the formula will return "4"
I have written a code using VB for extracting data from notepad to excel and copying the certain data like date in other cell. I need to extract a particular value from the cell where data is copied to another using mid or any other function in VB.The code is as follows:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Call data Call compare End Sub
Sub data() Dim fs, f, ts, s Dim r As Long Dim r2 As Long Dim e1, e2 As Variant Dim i As Integer Const ForReading = 1
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set f = fs.getfile("C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorMy DocumentssheetalCingularStatus .txt").....................
I need to extract part of the data from a number of cells. I was thinking a vlookup would be the right way to go about this but i don't know how i can make it look for only part of the data in a cell.
example data Required Extraction Data PXC-WIS-HAR075/001 = I need the data HAR075/001 GXR-Cru-WOO046/001 = I need the data WOO046/001 LST-Wis-KAV001/001 = I need the data KAV001/001 GXR-CAP-EDL001/001 = I need the data EDL001/001 RXW-ACT-WAL081/001 = I need the data WAL081/001 SXS/mf/SMI085/001 = I need the data SMI085/001 SYM-CEN-HAP001/001 = I need the data HAP001/001 SYM-Act-MAY025/001 = I need the data MAY025/001
I should have also wrote that I do have a list of the file numbers for the vlookup to.
to extract a number from an imported cell containing text, a number and date. i need to use this number as part of a formula in another cell and the data needs to be refreshed every hour.
eg. the cell imported is "USD 30.97 (March 27, 2007)" and i need to use 30.97 in another cell.
i've tried using data - text to columns, but i realised that after splitting the cells, the 2nd and 3rd columns can't be refreshed.
I have a column of data with letters in each cell, no numerical, only alpha. Now, some of those cells contain the letters "adj sub" as part of the text string in each cell. "Adj sub" is always at the beginning of the text string. As an example, a cell will look like this - "adj sub mhm". I want to delete rows whose cell description does not contain "adj sub" as part of the text in the cell.
I have been working on this worksheet part of which is attached herewith. I would like excel to automatically enter Updated/Inserted in column B against Individuals' names as per the instructions given in column A. For example: As per instruction in A9, B13:B16 should show Updated. I have tried to use the nested if function, but it does not work as I want it to. Also as I am not used to macros or VBA codes, could this problem be solved with formulas?
Need formula to extract the text from a cell, with which a vlookup will be preformed on? For example if a cell contains: 116PH(604052) I would need to perform a vlookup on the PH.
The problem is that the "PH" in this case can vary where it's at in the string of numbers. Also, some cells may only have a three digit number with the two letters following. See my attached spreadsheet as an example. The current formula I have in column A on the attached spreadsheet performs the vlookup fine if there is only the three digit number followed by the two letters, but as I've outlined above, this isn't sufficient.
I currently have an issue with sorting data that i download into excel.
I have a list of rows that have text that look something like the below:
redeem: 141BA9835E Colour: Silver
I want to copy only the colour at the end of each of the colours into a new cell. So in theory the formula will pick only the colour out. Below is a list of more rows as an example where it changes slightly:
redeem: C3CC237E3C Colour: Silver
redeem: db56b2177c Colour: Pink
redeem: 7d3fe7eba2 Colour: Black
redeem: EBE56BDA7A Colour: Silver
To summarise have can i extract into the cell next door, only the colours from text
Currently i am having to manually type only the colour into a cell, and it is taking forever when you have 1000's or rows
I am trying to extract a partial string from a cell. There are 2 lines in each cell seperated by ALT + Enter
Example: GREAT SOUTHERN ROAD GUNDAROO QLD 7012
What I want to do is extract only the first line of the text and put it into the next column. I've tried using the FIND, SUBSTITUTE formula, but because the 1st line of the address varies in length, it seems to cause more problems than it solves.
I have made something similar before and we were able to make it work... I tried the same code, but it is not working now. Basically in cell a1 I have
Auction Type: Auction, Auction End Time: 11/15/2006 10:00:00 AM(MST), Asking Price/Current Bid: $10.00, Number of Bids: 0, Description: , Traffic: 28 and in cell b1 I need it to only display $10.00 in cell c1 I need 0 (for number of bids)
Is there any way to remove the first part of a string of text in a cell and save the second part?
The first part of the text string is a team code that has a variable number of numbers, capital letters and sometimes spaces. The second part of the text string is a variable number of words in a team name that all start with a capital letter and have lower case letters. Every line has a different team code and team name.
The original spreadsheet also has a column with just team code. Is there a way of using this column to "subtract" the team code from the text string to just leave the team name?
I am trying to do a vlookup and am having soem issues. I have data like this in the cell i am using as the reference: "60030 - COLUMBUS, OH". The first column of the range I am searching would have "60030" in it. What i need to know is how do I get the vlookup to just reference the first 5 digits in the reference cell? As you can see by the formula below, I set the logical value to true hoping that it would find the closest value, but it did not work. =VLOOKUP(A7,sdoalign,3,TRUE)
I am creating a sheet with the cell information coming from different cells. I want to bold and/or underline a part of the cell to add clarity.
For e.g. Cell A1 = "Trans X" (Name of the transaction); Cell B1 = "System Y" (System where the transaction exists) Cell C1 = "Type Z" (Type of transaction)
I want to create a cell which has Newsheet.Cell (x,y) = "Name: Trans X System: System Y Type: Type Z"
I created the String by reading and concatenating the values, but I am not sure how to add the formatting to a part of the string.
Is it possible to somehow filter, search, find, etc, and basically clean cell A1 so that in the end it has just G3**D1234567?
I made a search macro, but the problem is there is so much text that it takes 2 seconds per cell to do a find. There are 6 columns with 65000 rows. I assume if I clean up each cell and do a "xlWhole" instead of "xlPart" in the find code, it will be much faster.
in order to hyperlink a single peice of text in a cell and not the whole cell I have created a shape with no fill or line but added text. I then hyperlinked it to a location in the workbook. When I set the Move and size with cell property I am not geting the expected result. If I resize a row well above that cell, the object isn't following the cell it wa placed in. I would be happy with alternative mechanisms for putting independantly linked text.
I have inherited multiple spreadsheets with thousands of hyperlinks in a single column, from all of which I need to extract the hyperlink text to audit it and edit it. The hyperlinks are only displaying less than useful words such as "Go To" "View" or "Click Here", for example.
Manually, I can right-click on the cell, select Edit Hyperlink, press Ctrl+End to select the entire link, press Ctrl+C to copy it, click on OK to close the editing dialogue, then paste it in the destination cell. That's easy, and good if you only have a few to do, but very tiresome if you have more than a dozen. Life's too short to do all those I need to do manually with a 29 day deadline!
I tried setting up a Macro to do it for me, but couldn't get it to work down a column and paste the result in the destination cell on the same row as each successive cell was located. I do very little Macro work, and I find Excel to be less than intuitive in this respect, so I gave up. (At least in Word you can see the whole step-by-step process in the Macro Editing window and easily fix it, if need be...).
One previous discussion, dating from 2006, supplied two answers. See [URL]
Should I set up a Macro and insert the above Function into it? Or is there a completely different way to do it? how to do this in Excel 2003/WinXP is very welcome.
I have a long list of client names in individual cells eg: A2 = Garden Homes Summary, A3 = Lakeland AG Summary etc etc. However I need to extract the client name without the word summary in it.
I know how to do this on an individual basis, but as there is a long list and different number of letters in each one.
I have a spreadsheet where the data held in column A is an export from another system and the exported data looks like this:
??????? Stn ??????? ??????? ??
What i would like to be able to do is to split out the data in column A so that the text before the 'Stn' (but including Stn) are shown in column C with text after 'Stn' is shown in column D. i have looked at using =LEFT, =MID or =RIGHT with =FIND but the problem i have is that the text prior to the letters Stn could be one, two, three or four words and the text after could be similar.
I am trying to transfer data from some appointment based software into a spreadsheet . the data comes out as one row For example ,the following is the contents of cell A1: 06/06/2014 09:00 AM - 09:30 AM Patient: John Smith
What I would like to do is extract one column with the date ,one column with the patient forename and one with the patient surname.
I have tried various combinations of =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(".",A1)) etc etc but cannot extract the data I need
I am trying to plot data that I have read out of a PLC (via csv file) . The date/time data shows up as follows: 2007-05-14T02:15:00.020-07:00
In this example, the suffix .020-07:00 is extra information and causes problems with graphing the info. Also, the cell is a not a number value, and I can not force it to be a general, number format.
I would like to truncate the cell or extract the time out of it such that I can plot the PLC data in a meaningful "parameter vs time" graph.
I have sheet1 that contains the following information
Column A Column B company1 - book value 0,5 company1 - earnings 0.2 company1 - R&D 1111 company1 - total assets 200000 company2 - book value 2 company2 - earnings 333 company2 - total assets 12
So column B contains only numbers and note that for company 2 I do not have any numbers on R&D.
I have in sheet2 only once the company name. I would like now that if column a contains the text "book value" to have the value of column B pasted in sheet 2 column B. Same for earnings to be pasted in column C. R&D in column D and if R&D is not present for that company then the value should say something like unknown.
I am building a summary spreadsheet which will bring in a number of values from other spreadsheets located in folders on a network. Each set of external references will return the same cells, but the location and filenames are different. In order to make it quick and easy to modify the file names and locations without having to change the cell references in my summary sheet i want to type the full reference in a cell as text then use this in another cell as part of the external reference...
In one column (Column A) I have a column of data which contains long descriptive text - i want to extract a specific piece of text from this descriptive text and enter it into the next Column (Column B).
E.g. Cell A1 = "Hello Buddy, how are you?" - i want to extract the word Buddy and enter it into cell B1
then A2 into B2, A3 into B3, etc, etc,...
Is there a simple macro out there that can do this?
In a field containing this: Bergamot, Orange*(11,16) I want to put a space before the asterisk. There are hundreds of these in the spreadsheet with other text before and after the text to be replaced. I made sure the field is defined as a text field.
I searched on "*(" and said replaced with " *(" and ended up with " *(11,16)" - the Bergamot, Orange was removed from the field.
I have to sort list of thousands name (3000 names) and remove duplicates. My problem is majority of the names have their title (i.e) Prof. Dr. Ir. Sir. etc typed in, so I need to copy the title in different cell and have their name only. Here's what I expect:
Current List ----> Column A -->Column B Drs. H. A. Andrew Boston, MRE. ----> Drs. H. --> Andrew Boston, MRE Drs. H. Andrew Smith ----> Drs. H. --> Andrew Smith H. Abd. Mohammed Junus ----> H. --> Abd. Mohammed Junus Prof. DR. Jane Doe, MD ----> Prof. D --> Jane Doe, MD Prof. DR. Ir. H. Randy Wong, MBA --->Prof. DR. Ir. H. -> Randy Wong, MBA Dra. H. A. Karen Patel ----> Dra. H. --> Karen Patel Drs. H. A. M. Kangkong ----> Drs. H. A. --> M. Kangkong Prof. Drs. H. A. Kareem Saleh, Ph.D -> Prof. Drs. H. A. ->Kareem Saleh, Ph.D Dra. Hj. Nina Schorder ----> Dra. Hj. --> Nina Schorder Ir. Abdul Jabbar ----> Ir. --> Abdul Jabbar
