Examples of content of two cells are:
50.20283625183448da
1195.368480208458hr
where the right alpha characters always count two.
I need the left number as a Double and the right two characters as String (or ?) to compare with Array("mn","da","yr") etc to determine the index I don't know how to write the code.
In cell A1 I have the text
20. Black Angel Blues (Sweet Black Angel) - Nighthawk, Robert
In cell B2 I would like all of the text from the period/full stop after '20' until the - hyphen character
In cell C2 I would like the text after the hypen, but if as in this case there is a surname followed by a first name I would like them rearranged so that the full name is shown first name followed surname without a comma.
The end result in this example would be:
B2
Black Angel Blues (Sweet Black Angel)
C2
Robert Nighthawk
I have a comment that I'm putting into a variable for the purpose of obtaining the persons name.
Cell C3 (in this example) just contains their employee number, but it's comment contains...
Tech ID: 123456
Name: John Doe
The Tech ID is variable from 3 chars to 6 chars and obviously the name is size is also variable. The end result will be a variable with just the persons first and last name extracted from the comment.
Code:
Dim mycmt As String
Dim techname As String
mycmt = Sheets("tech").Cells(3, "C").Comment.Text
techname = Right(mycmt, BIG-OLE-BALL-OF-CONFUSION)
MsgBox techname

These reports are always located in a subfolder defined as "D:DropboxWorkVerification Reportslocation name" where location name is the name that I want to use to save the workbook.
So as an example an excel workbook report generated in the folder:
"D:DropboxWorkVerification Reports!Test"
Would be saved as "!AirCheck AutoTest Report - !Test.xls"
or a report in the folder:
"D:DropboxWorkVerification ReportsHoliday Inn Surfside"
would be saved as: "!AirCheck AutoTest Report -Holiday Inn Surfside.xls"
Right now the code I guessed on isn't working and its generating an error on compile "Can't assign to read-only property".
I have a list of 3000 strings, all in seperate cells, in a column.
Within each string, are ( say 13 ) letters ( for convience) "A" through to "M" which are of interest to me
The 'letters' of interest occur either once or twice , or none within the individual strings. When a 'letter' of interest occurs within a string , putting a marker in a column on the same row is sufficient.
Using vba, I have extracted the cases where 2 'letters' exist within the strings, by using 3 nested FOR NEXT loops, with an IF test in the middle of
If (InStr(Cells(i, 2).Value, IndexLetter#1) > 0) and (InStr(Cells(i, 2).Value, IndexLetter#2) > 0)Then
and then put my marker in cells(i,3)
where : IndexLetter#1 is set in the outermost of the FOR NEXT loops as one of the 'letters' of interest, and similarly IndexLetter#2 is set on the next inner of the FOR NEXT loop . The inner most FOR NEXT loop ( i ) is the list of 3000 strings
I want to put a marker next to the string , when only ONE of the 'letters' is present in the string AND NONE OF THE OTHERS
In sheet1 I have a simple database consisting of 5 columns of data
Column A : Name ie James Jones
Column B : payroll number ie 123456
Column C : shift times ie 1245-2124
Column D : job title ie floor
Column E : comments ie A/L or 0600-1500
what I would like is some code that will go down Column E and if a 'time string' ie 1300-2130 is found then copy this string and paste into corresponding value in column C. If a text string is found ie A/L or Sick or anything like this then ignore and move onto next cell, loop this until all cells in column E have been checked.

I'm working on a sheet for our accounting section which has been in use for quite some time, which means, that I'm not supposed to change a hell of a lot in it since it's accounting and everybody is afraid of changes.
Coming to the point, I have the following problem:
(1) I have a date.
(2) I need that date in this format: "mm-yyyy", written in a certain cell.
(3) BUT: the cell should NOT contain the date itself, but JUST the text (some tables in the background need this format)
(4) Changing the cell to text-format is not eligible, since it puts an " ' " in front of the numbers.
(5) The cell should be formatted as a number.
So, in conclusion:
I need a string/number with the date in this format: "mm-yyyy" in the cell formatted .NumberFormat = "0".
I'm working on an existing workbook...
I decided to add some code and a screenshot. This code will return the number, which lies behind the date, and write it into the cell. So that's not what I want, but maybe the code clarifying what I need anyway.
The screenshot shows the wanted output : screenie.png
I have something like the following:
If Worksheets("RawData"). Cells(1, nColumn).Value = Worksheets("RawData").Cells(12, 16).Value Then
..do code (I know the cell location of interest at this point)
End If
Then I End up needing To Do something Like the following
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = _
Worksheets("RawData").Range("L1:N1")
“L1:N1” above is a sample. Given the code above it I have the cell location in question but it is in the format such as .Cells(12,16). That doesn’t do me much good when range wants something like “L1”. I don’t know how to convert that (12,16) to a L16 for example.
Wondering if it is possible to generate a random 4 digit number based off an alphanumeric string?
Example;
Cell A1 has 123XVF1234
Cell A2 has 321AFW4321
In B1 I would like to have a 4-6 digit number that is generated based on the alphanumeric data in Cell A1 (and so on down the list). If that is possible, I would also need to be able to convert back the 4-6 digit number back to its original alphanumeric value
Example;
If B1 returns 643562 it would need to be able to be converted back to 123XVF1234
How to modify a custom cell format to make data entry easier.
My goal is to have the output look like this: 'A12B-C20D: SET 10: Text string here'
Inputs needed are:
1-3 digit number between A & B
1-3 digit number between C & D
1-2 digit number after SET
Text string of variable length
Where I am stuck. So far I can get "A12B-C20D: SET 10:" to show up properly when 122010 is input. The custom format I am using looks like this: "A"##"B-C"##"D: SET "##": "
When I try to incorporate the "@" symbol the first part of the formatting goes away and the output shows up as "122010 Text string here".
I have tried:
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##":";;-;_@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##": ";;@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##":";_@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##": ";;;@
So I have this list (I made it a little bit shorter).
So what you see is two different tasks (01 and 02) and three different conditions (A, B and C). In column B you see the result I would like to have. '/Searchtask_01.html' in A1 belongs to conditions A, because it is in session A. However, '/Searchtask_01.html' in A10 belongs to conditions B, because it is in session B.

I need to create a string of all the Acc Number but I dun not wan any repeat of the same Acc number in the String . The number of Acc number to be put in the string may varies sometimes. It may varies from 3 to 1000 or more . Is there a way to write a general formula to create such string?

B1=13.5
B2=15.5
B3=17.5

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.

My column extraction requirements are:
Using the same file you posted we just need column list; when we press ctrl+z the box should come up and have only columns list showing up and buttons like "select all", reset, and cancel should be present.
In this column list all the column headers should be shown under the column list and the interface box(ctrl+z) should be movable like you have already done in the last post
The other condition is that if any new columns gets added anywhere in the first row of the sheet the user interface(ctrl+z box) should show it in column list so when selected it can be extracted to the output file.
In short every thing is similar to the previous file samplecopy v6.1.xlsm you posted but this time only column list is required and all the column headers under it and remove the note which is applicable to previous query.
Extracting a list from a webpage. I am using the following VBA code below. I've attached the worksheet to which it corresponds. This is the webpage I'm trying to pull from: [URL]
My problem is the website divides up all of the records in sets of 50 on different pages but uses the same URL. Therefore, my VBA code will only bring back the first 50 records for each group I am trying to extract. Do you know how to pull all of the records for each URL?

I just wanted to ask whether the same code will work for many more sheets or will modification be needed? I have a very basic understanding of vba loops, so plz tell me did you check the entire row for being blank or specific cells? Im attaching a file which more closely resembles the data i work with, just tell me whether the previous macro called "ravi" will work fine or will it require modification.
View 12 Replies View RelatedThere are websites available for data, but what is viable and crucial to me is finding a way to
1) Run a repeated process via a macro / vba script to allow for data input into the site
2) Once input into site, data is to be brought back into excel so that I can benchmark my product pricing vs my competition
There are 2 sites I am most interested in getting this information from specifically and although they do the same thing they have a couple of unique pros to them. they are the following
1) Findchips.com
2) eciaauthorized.com
The biggest pro to findchips.com is that they have a beta tool on their site that allows for "mass searches" to be performed as opposed to 1 part number at a time. Up to 100 results can be returned at a time, so although there would be multiple iterations doing it this way would save processing power as each step is not done line by line (p/n by p/n) as i could group them and send them and perform the operations that way.

This table has one column with people's names, other columns with different things, and one with hours.
The figures will change every month, and my dad doesn't know crap about excel, so anything that he has to go put in equations or sort again every month or whatever, is not going to work. it needs to be so that all he has to do is plug in numbers.
It can be either one or two ways: either I need to pull out all the rows that have hours above a certain amount, and have them sitting to the side/under/above the main table in the same worksheet.
I realize that that may involve a long complicated formula, however.
Alternatively, we can have it so that all the rows with hours above a certain number are color coded at located at the top of the main table. I figured that one out with ease, HOWEVER I don't how to make that automatic, so that it does it by itself when the numbers are plugged in each month. My dad would not be able to handle sorting.
I need the hours that =0 color coded and put at the bottom if possible, it's not absolutely necessary, however. I could not figure out how to put the highest hours on top and the hours equaling 0 at the bottom, considering that all rowsthat fall in between need to be kept in alphabetical order.
I'm doing some simple data extraction, e.g.
A B
1 bob 3
2 mandy 4
3 charlie 6
4 dave 1
5 steve 5
So I had in c1 to c5 = =if(b1 > 3, a1,"") autofilled, which works fine, but I end up with,
gap
mandy
charlie
gap
steve
how would I get,
mandy
charlie
steve
also is it possible to have an if statement in 1 cell change the value of another cell?
e.g.
in a1
if(b1>5, c1="yes",c1="no"), can't seem to get it to work
