Find (Using Find) Using Variables With Or Without Quotes

Sep 2, 2009

In the code below Dim "x" is a string, the string may or may not contain quotes ( "" ). I might search for a string like this:

The big brown fox
or like this:
The "big" brown fox

I just found out the string can not be found when it contains quotes as in my second example.

Find Text String Value Between Quotes

Sep 2, 2007

Formulae Solution prefered if possible--

Is it possible to extract the two text strings between the quotes, placing them in Col. C & D respectively, e.g.
Application.WorksheetFunction.Substitute(c.Formula, " ANTI ", " ANTI-HERO ")
Application.WorksheetFunction.Substitute(c.Formula, "SEC9", "SECTOR 9")
Application.WorksheetFunction.Substitute(c.Formula, "LNGBRDC", "LONGBOARD COMPLETE")

--Col. C---------------Col.D
Anti------------------Anti-Hero
SEC9--------------- SECTOR 9
LNGBRDC---------- LONGBOARD COMPLETE

There are three types of scenarios-
1) Values enclosed in quotes that begin and end w/ spaces:
Application.WorksheetFunction.Substitute(c.Formula, " ANTI ", " ANTI-HERO ")

2) Values enclosed in quotes that does not contain a leading space or trailing space:
Application.WorksheetFunction.Substitute(c.Formula, "SEC9", "SECTOR 9")

3) Values enclosed in quotes that have a space between itself:
Application.WorksheetFunction.Substitute(c.Formula, "LNGBRDC", "LONGBOARD COMPLETE")

Find The Sum Of The Quotes Based On Each Brand

Jun 26, 2008

I'm looking to create a monthly sales report based on brand and month.

I have done it in the past using a load of if statements checking for monthly totals and then adding up the coloumn.

But there must be an easier way.

I have 4 brands. so In january I want to find the sum of the quotes based on each brand.

'A' contains the date
'J' contains the brand - Say A, B C or D
'M' contains the quote value

I want to firstly count the number of enquiries per brand per mont. (these are all entries without a qoute value.

Then I want to count the number of quotes per brand month (these are the entries with a quote value)

The I want to find the total value of the quotes per brand . per month.

Find First Value Greater Than X In Given Range Using Variables

Mar 3, 2014

My data has a bunch of near 0 figures followed by values I actually need followed by more irrelevant 0's than once again followed by values I need and again irrelevant 0's. Looks like

0.1
0.12
3.2
3.4
0.1
0.3
4.5
4.2
0.3
0.11

but with many more rows and numbers. I'm graphing the start and end values before/after zero's.

The first block of numbers I figured out using

=MATCH(TRUE,INDEX($C8:$C150>1,0),0)+7 I then index from that given row.

The span of relevant values I'm looking for constantly changes, so once my numbers deviate too much I stop, using another index formula.

Now for finding my beginning and end points for the next block of data I've combined using VBA with excel formulas. I can't quite figure this part out. I've created Variables for ranges and then used them to find max and min Values.

Public Sub RunCurrent()
'
' RunCurrent Macro
Dim upEnd As Integer
Dim dnStart As Integer
Dim dnEnd As Integer

[Code] ........

Find Value With Multiple Variables And Change Value In Other Column

Jul 3, 2014

Please see attached example book.

In it I want to change name "G" in column A to "X" in column C.

And I want to do it for month of May in column B.

So a match won't do the trick because Name G is in 3 times so it should match on G and May from columns A and B.

How to catch this in a simple VBA line?

Find Correct Data Based On 2 Variables

Oct 19, 2006

I have a project that looks at a table of train schedules for a range of dates. The data is formated so that arrivals and departures are on the same row but differnent columns. The dates are to the right and the grid is completed with the number of arrivals for a paticular day. I have created a formula that looks at the data and returns the arrival time for that date. It worked fine until the schedule was altered so that the same train could arrive at 2 different times on 2 different dates. So train 976 arrives at 4a on some days and 5a on others. In the example Ihave posted train 976 has 2 passengers arriving at 5a but the formula shows 4a. Is there a way I can have the formula return the correct time based on the day of the month? I should point out that the same problem could exist for departures.

Combining HLOOKUP AND VLOOKUP To Find Solutions In A Matrix Using 2 Variables

Oct 28, 2009

This was a snap in Lotus. Unfortunately, the VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP formulas don't translate to Excel on conversion. I need to estimate the weight of reinforcing steel in concrete based on 7 different sizes of rebar and spacing of the bar between 1" and 24".

I have created a matrix(lookup table) with the bar spacing listed in decimal equivilents in feet on the top row.Inthe row below, I have numbered the columns from 1 to 24. the next row is blank. Along the left side of the matrix, I have listed the bar sizes 3 thru 10. Within the table I have listed all the bar weights/SF of concrete. IE if the slab has 1 mat of #5 rebar spaced 6" oc. If you look in row 7, under column 6, the weight of weight of the bar in that sf of concrete is found. In the part of the worksheet where the caculations are performed set up as follows:.....

Copy Text, With Quotes, Without Quotes

Nov 21, 2006

I'm trying to set up a macro to be assigned to a button to copy the text in a cell into an application which uses similar text capabilities to Notepad.

The simple macro of:

Range("D5").Select
Selection.Copy

... results in the text of the cell being copied to the clipboard with quotation marks before and after the text. I can manually enter the cell, select the text, the copy it... but this process can not be recorded in a macro - I can edit the cell and copy the text but when leaving the cell it gives the error "unable to record".

Is there any way I can copy the text to the clipboard without getting these quotes?

Find Format: Find Method And Combine It With A Countif Or Loop

Feb 20, 2007

I'm trying to use this Find Method and combine it with a countif or loop. Something that will count a number of occurences of a unique type of character. I'm looking to find all "F" characters in Bold, Italic and Size 16. Here's my find code that I'm trying to use. I can get it to work by itself but not along with a countif or loop.

Sub count_4()

Set r = Range("A1:A6")
With Application.FindFormat.Font
.Bold = True
.Italic = True
.Size = 16
End With
r.Find(What:="F", LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, searchformat:=True, MatchCase:=True).Activate

Find Formula (find Jobs With Split Names)

Aug 5, 2009

DSee the attached.

The current spreadsheets add up each persons totals by matching the name in each tab with the name of the person who won the job located in current orders tab.

BUT.....If two salesman pair up on up on a job then the formula doesn't recognise the joint name. eg Gary/paul in row 69 (current orders).

I need the totals to half the job and add it to the salesmans total accordingly. There is no 'Paul Tab' as he is our MD and doesnt have a target.

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?

Find Dates With Find Statement

Mar 6, 2007

I have dates in column A (Source Dates) and Column C (Target Dates). All data is formatted as Dates. I want to find which dates in column A have a matching date in column C. When using the find statement within a For Each loop I can not find a date match unless I format the target dates as General. How can I use the Find Statement using dates without formating the target dates as General?

Option Explicit

Dim SourceDate As Range
Dim TargetDate As Range

Sub FindTargetDate()
Columns("C:C").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "General"
For Each SourceDate In Range("A1:A32")
'MsgBox SourceDate
Set TargetDate = Sheet1.Range("C1:C7").Find(SourceDate, LookIn:=xlValues)

Find A Group Of Unique Rows- Find Non-zero Value In A Column - Fill Column With That Value?

May 27, 2014

There are groups of similar ID numbers in Column J. For a group of similar ID numbers in consecutive rows there is only one row that has a number greater than 0 in its Column L cell and the rest of the cells of Column L for that set of similar IDs is filled with 0s.

First for that unique ID group I need to find out which row is it that has a value greater than zero in its Column L cell.

Then I need to use that value to fill the rest of the 0s in Column L corresponding to that set of Unique IDs.

The process continues with identifying similar IDs in Column J and this time doing the same thing for their Column M. I have attached a sample file that shows the data and how the results need to look like.

Find And Find Again - Object Variable Or With Block Variable Not Set

Jun 5, 2007

After doing a search, I need to ask an Excel 2003 question. I'm creating a tool to open three sparate workbooks. One is the driver and I need to use it to pull data from the second and then to place that data along with additional data into the third.

My driver data may consist of a single value or multiple values separated by semi-colons in a cell. A single value works fine. The first value in a multi-value condition works fine. the second find, however, gives me an object error. I'm using the " split" verb to separate the values. Here's my code. Have you any idea why the second find is throwing up this error when the first find works correctly?

varData = Split(strRef, ";", -1)
For J = 0 To UBound(varData)

varSrchVlu = Trim(varData(J))
' do the ARIS Exrtact matching
Workbooks(strManualFile).Activate
Workbooks(strARISExtract).Activate ' Activate ARIS Extract
Sheets("Processes").Cells(2, 1).Activate
Workbooks(strARISExtract).Sheets("Processes").Range("A2").Select

Commas & Quotes

I have a rather large file that I need to convert. Right now, there are about 3 columns and over 4500 rows. What I need to do is have everything separated by quotes and commas. I have a macro to somewhat do this, but it is putting an extra comma in front of everything. My question is this:

Is there a way to take out a comma that is in front of every entry?

OR

Is there another macro that will separate the columns with a single quote and comma, like below:
