Find An Exact Match In A Column

Apr 27, 2009

I am having a slight VBA issue I need a little help with. I have created a catalog of books in Column A. As each new letter is reached there is a new heading. For example:

Cell A1 : A
Cell A2 : Book beginning with A #1
Cell A2 : Book beginning with A #2
Cell A3 : Book beginning with A #3
Cell A4: B
Cell A5 : Book beginning with B #1
Cell A6 : Book beginning with B #2
Cell A7 : Book beginning with B #3
Cell A8 : C
etc.

What I am looking to do is create a macro for each letter so that if I went to the "B" macro it would make the active cell A4. However the list of books will grow as my library does, so the macros have to find the letter rather than go to a predefined cell.

The code I have so far is (this example is for the letter B):

Sub B()
Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.Find(What:="B", After:=ActiveCell, _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False, _
SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.Select
End Sub

However this code finds the first time the letter B is used in a word, not the cell that only has the letter B in it. Also I need to make sure that if the active cell when the macro is run is below the letter that it needs to find that it will still find it. I'm not sure if my current code would do that or not.

Find Particular Word Then Insert New Entire Column Before Cell

Jan 25, 2014

My worksheet has two sheets which has daily continued data.

Looking To Find 1 Of 2 Words In A Cell In Column B And Return Word Found In The Same

May 27, 2014

Looking to find 1 of 2 words in a cell in column B and return the word found in the same row in column E. This seemed easy but I am not having any luck.

the cells in column B have several words in them but I am looking for 2 specific words "PLAT" and "ORIG". If the word is not in the cell, it should show a blank cell in column E in the same row, otherwise one of the 2 words should be in that row in column E. A VBA loop would be ideal but a formula that can do it might work as well.

How To Find Specific Word And Sum The Column According To That Word

Mar 14, 2014

I would like to have a formula find a specific word in column L and return the sum from column E for the same fund from column C.

I tried using =SUMIF(L:L,"*annual*",E:E) but that gives me the sum of annual for the entire column. I need to be able to specify the fund.

word "annual" also appears in "semi annual" so I need to be able to separate the two.

Copy An Exact Value To Another Cell?

May 18, 2009

What command do I enter so that a value in one cell is copied EXACTLY to another cell? For example, I have today's date in cell A4 and I want the exact date to be automatically copied to cell E5.

I can't seem to figure out the correct function to do this. I looked for help but there are just ways to transfer formulas over to other cells.

Find Function Where Search Criteria Isn't Exact Match For Cell Contents

Dec 19, 2011

I am new to VBA and am having difficulties in getting a find function to successfully locate search criteria within cell. When the search criteria matches exactly that of the cell contents then the code works; however should the search criteria only form part of the total cell contents (such as a seach for "the" in a cell containing "the cat sat on the mat") the code doesn't recognise it.

Essentially, I need the code to search a range for the required string and if found within a cell activate that cell and populate a combobox with the full cell contents of the activecell.offset(0,-2).

The relevant section of code attached below:

Dim role_count as range
Dim role as string

If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("Role_Count"), Role) 0 Then
Range("role_count").Select
Selection.Find(What:=Role, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False _
, SearchFormat:=False).Activate

Me.Controls(ComboBoxName) = ActiveCell.Offset(0, -2).Value

Search Engine Of Non-exact Word Using Userform

Jul 4, 2012

I have a userform for the user to use a search engine on what he needs. The following code I have written it, but it is only good if he writes exact wording of the document name. How can I twist the code to make the search look for approximate words,

The search engine will try to look in for all the titles on "Result" worksheet and copy/past it to a new sheet called "search". so when the user types in the userform "specification" for instance, it will look all titles (Specifications, specification, spec, brown color spec) that has this word in the "Result" sheet and then it will copy/paste it in the Search Sheet.

Code:
Private Sub ok_1_Click()
Dim sht As Worksheet
Set sht = Worksheets("Result")
'if no name selected
If Trim(Me.Document_box.Value) = "" Then
MsgBox "Please write a document name."

Find Highest Value In Column And Then Copy Contents Of Another Cell In That Row?

Aug 18, 2014

I have a worksheet where columns C, F, I, L, O record scores within a league. Each row records a persons score in that league and there are two rows per person recording their score and their handicap score. So Person A would be on rows 3, 4, Person B on 5, 6 etc. The persons name is recorded in Column B.

What I would like to do is to have a cell(s) elsewhere in the worksheet which show the highest score in that league and display that score and the name of the person who achieved it. This ideally would need to be done for the highest score and the highest handicap score.

For the life of me I can't even begin to work out how to do that or even know if it is possible in Excel.

So to clarify, lets say the highest score is in cell L7 and the highest handicap score was in M3. The cell(s) containing this formula should then show the name in B7 and the score in L7 and below it the name in B3 and the score in M3.

Find In VBA Code: Find Exact Match

Oct 9, 2006

I'm using the below VBA

Dim c, DataRow
With Data
Set c = . Range("A5:A350"). Find(KPI, LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not c Is Nothing Then
DataRow = c.Row
End If
End With

Now,If KPI is for example = "Favourite Hotel" and if i have data that looks like :

Favourite Hotel - London
Favourite Hotel - Cardiff
Favourite Hotel
Favourite Hotel - Birmingham

Then it seems to not look be looking for an exact match (e.g. Favourite Hotel) and rather is finding the first item in the list that contains the KPI string (E.g. Favourite Hotel - London).

How do i make it search for an exact match?

Macro: Copy A Word From A Column To Another Automatically

Jul 20, 2008

On the data sheet I attached you can see easily what I am trying to do:

The macro should do something like this basically:

Column A there is a entry like "L110E (CST_PRG-Wheel Loaders-E series models)"

Lets say we have 10.000 entries more or less like this.

Macro should do this:
* Take first word for example in this case "L110E" and copy into column D same row.
* Take second word's second part in this case only "PRG" and copy into column B same row.
* Take the 3rd word between - - in this case only "Wheel Loaders" and copy into column C.

Excel 2010 :: Find Total Of Times Word Appears Across All Sheets In Column C?

Dec 19, 2013

I have a single work book with 8 sheets (I am using Excel 2010 BTW) and I am trying to find a total of times a word appears across all the sheets in column "C"

I found this formula on another thread. =SUM(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("Sheet"&{1,2,3}&"!C1:C1000"),"="&H3)) with an example. I made the changes that I needed for my purposes

This worked but only after I renamed the sheets to Sheet1, Sheet2, etc.

Is there a way get the same results from the above formula if all the sheets are named after our reps? Example: sheet1 is named Dan, Sheet2 is Nick, etc?

Locate Word In Column And Copy Adjacent Range

May 16, 2012

I am new to VBA and have tried to develop the code for finding a specific stock symbol (Column A) from over 4200 symbols from a downloaded csv file, copy the data in in its (specific symbol's) row (in the next 5 columns B to F) to the 3rd blank row in the master workbook (data arranged from Bottom to Top). In the Master workbook each stock symbol has a worksheet with its symbol as the tab e.g. BHP.AX is the tab or sheetname for BHP stock in the Australian Stock Exchange. The downloaded file comes from a subscribed site EODData which provides daily OHLCV (Open/High/Low/Close/Volume) data against each symbol.

My attempt is shown below and it is very primitive. It does not work! I wish to run it from the Master workbook (name:-0PortfolioASXMultipleIB.xlsm) and not from Csv Data file.

VB:
Sub Macro0CopyFromCSV()
'Insert a blank row and format it in Master workbook
Rows("3:3").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove

Copy Row From One Sheet And Paste To Another If A Key Word Is Found In 1 Column?

Apr 15, 2014

I have 10 worksheets in my workbook. The two that I'm concerned with in this post are "Main" and "Completed".
If Column AA in "Main" contains the word "Complete" (which is from a drop down list) I want to copy the entire row from "Main" and paste in the "Complete" sheet without over-writting previous pasted rows.

Back in sheet "Main" I want the data in that row to be cleared with the exception of Column A as it contains a formula for sorting blanks. If I delete that row it will mess up my links on other sheets.

Find And Remove Exact Value?

May 27, 2014

I am using the above code to find and remove data, at present the code does not find the exact match.

For instance if someone enters as it will remove any entry with as in it.

I want it to only remove specific data, so if someone types in as, and as is not in the list to look through I wan't them to recieve a message telling them to check spelling and enter exact value of data to be removed.

IE (enter Blauv to remove Blauv, Not BL and remove Blauv, Black, Blue)

The find method has a lookat arguement which you can define as xlwhole or xlpart, by default it is set to xlpart.

If you have a cell containing Blauv

.find("Bl") will find it, .find("Bl", lookat:=xlwhole) will not.
