I am trying to find a way to automatically find and replace 2 letter symbols in a specific column into the words they represent. There are many symbols and rather than do a find and replace for each symbol, I would like to write a macro that would do them all at once.
I have a Table with MB and GB numbers.

I have an workbook with two worksheets: sheet1 and sheet2. In first sheet I have an combobox (with data from sheet2, range A2:end xldown). In second sheet I have:
column A: item
column B: item with range
column C: range
I need to select one item from combobox (for example 3) and after that to select a cell (for example D3).
In sheet2, column A, I need item 3 to be deleted.
In sheet2, column B, I need item 3 to be added.
In sheet2, column C, I need the selected cell (D3) to be added and so on for all the items!
How to find and replace a range of values. I've looked online, and searched the forum with no success.
I have a list of cells in a column labled "Check #1", "Check #2", "Check #3" ect. I'm trying to build a Macro that would replace any value from "Check #1" to "Check #50,000" with "Outgoing Check". I know this can be done manually with relative ease, but it will need to be done very very very often, so I'd like to automatic it as much as possible.
How to put the steps into a Macro or Formula that could be re-produced with ease.
I am looking to Find and Replace (via ctr-F) but I need to replace it only within a range of selected cells. Each time I try to do this it replaces everything even though I have tried selecting each cell and replacing only that. Is there a way to select a certain amount of cells and replace?

View 2 Replies View Relatedsay that i have alist of data in "A2:A", which are a string file (text) and i want to rename each data to a certain name that defined in range "B1:B2" (String file too).
For Example: for range
C2 = S16e
C3 = 16/E
C4 = 18W
C5 = Site18 w
& The target name is to be:
B1=16E
B2=18W
For case above, i need to replace C2&C3 in to 16E, while C4&C5 to be 18W.
I would like to be able to replace all cell values in a range of 20c by 20r (i.e. 400 cells). In all cases the condition would be the same (find all cells with a value greater than than zero), but then replace with different values.
e.g. Cells with value >0 in range CX119:DQ138 replace with "NT", then cells with value of >0 in range DR119:EK138 replace with "NU"
I thought you could do it with find and replace by just selecting that range of cells but can't see how to set the conditional >0 bit.
I have Excel 2013. I would like to use the code below but I need it to let me select the range instead of specifying it in the code, then pop up a form into which I can fill in what I want it to search and what I need it replaced with.

I need to do is find a way to automatically find a range and once the range is determined i gotta put on those rows a function [Today()- a date], i know the functions i gotta use but don't know how to set that range automatically and copy or apply the function in those rows in a different column of course.
This problem has come up fairly frequently lately, and I'm not sure how to fix it, or if this is by design...but in Excel 2003 I can't seem to do a "Find and Replace" based on the value of a cell. I can do a find, based on cell value, but the moment I change to the replace tab, the "values" and "comments" are missing from the "look in" dropdown.
I've only noticed this when I'm trying to replace on a filtered list, so I'm not sure if that is part of the issue.
Perhaps an alternative way of arriving at the same goal. Basically I have a worksheet with a number of filtered columns. They are filtered just right, using custom filtering, and so I do not want to undo the filters. In some columns I have formulas that are returning #VALUE! errors. I'd like to replace all of these cells with NA.
I recently became owner of a spreadsheet with some issues, and I am trying to make it useful. Each row has a URL of a blog post, and I want to extract the date from it (which is present in each URL) while getting rid of the rest of the URL. I was able to get rid of everything up to the year (which comes first), but then the URL continues, for example, 2013/05/16/the-rest-of-the-url/ and I would like to just have 2013/05/16 remain.
I am trying to use find and replace with the find box reading 2013/??/??/*/ and replacing it with 2013/??/?? which effectively erases everything else in the url, but leaves ?? instead of the numbers. Is there any way to have it so that it keeps whatever was in the original box?

Trying to repeat a 550 or so character statement with a find/replace however I am getting type mismatch errors. When I use a smaller message in the "replace" it works.
I need it to post a message exactly as long as what I have in there. How do I get it to work?
Need assistance with the code for catching errors when using the find / replace function in excel? In particular, I am trying to write code to break to an error message when the value or string searched for isn't found in the find / replace. At the minute I have just copied the standard code using a macro and all this does is return a message box saying X entries replaced.

I am trying to create a macro where it finds a a certain word in a column for example C. What i want it to do is find anything that says FWD_EUR and then replace that cell (e.g C2) with CASH_EUR_FWD and after it has done that it replaces the adjacent cell (e.g. D2) with EUR_FWD. I then want this to do the same with FWD_USD to CASH_USD_FWD and adjacent cell to USD_FWD.

I have two worksheets. In the first one column holds the names of universities, and the next column holds employee names. For example:
London Metropolitan University | Chris Davis
London Metropolitan University | Sean Joesbury
London Metropolitan University | Stefano Carlino
London South Bank University | Simon Forsbrook
London South Bank University | Peter Lacko
University College London | Ben Burch
University College London | Oli Lan
In the second sheet, I'd like the universities to appear as headers to the columns, with all the employees of that uni to be listed underneath. I'd also like for these lists to be updated automatically as new rows are entered in the first sheet.
Is there away to replace text automatically in excell from a list. For example:

I've got a problem with my workbook.
It gets datas from another workbooks and contains cells with formulas like these:
='C:YEAR[2006-ab.xls]'!A12
='C:YEAR[2006-bc.xls]'!C18
et.c.
Is it possible to write a code in VBA to replace a part of formulas above?
I have a list (formatted as a table) on one sheet that I want users to be able to change. On another sheet there is a table that needs to have every item from the list in the first column. So far I have achieved this by using "=Table2[[#This Row],[Crop List]]" in every cell of the column where I want the list copied. ("Table2" is the list, "Crop List" is the header on the list.) This basically works, but it has some drawbacks:
1) When I try to sort the table, the items referencing the list are stuck in their original positions and no longer match the other columns.
2) I have to have a large number of cells displaying "#VALUE!" at the bottom of my table because they refer to empty cells in the list which might later be filled.
In case my explanation wasn't clear, I've attached a copy of the workbook. Everything I'm talking about is on the first two sheets, "Lists" and "Pricing."

I was wondering if it is possible to do this unique find and replace that is explained below.
I have many columns with data from our database. I have one column that has my html layout in it. I want to find within the html text data and replace it with data from another column for that row.
Example: We have [[manufacturer]] in the html area that we want to replace with data from our column called Manufacturer. So, it will replace the text in the html named [[Manufacturer]] with that rows Manufacturer data we have.
Is that possible to do?
I have around 10 names which I want to replace with their code names. For Example, "Alan Richard" needs to be replaced with AR001. Problem is I don't know cell range and this name might appear more than once in the data.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find and replace #N/A from a formula (link to another sheet) with nothing in the cell, using VBA.
Using this code it will do the first "find"
Cells.Find(What:="#N/A", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
True, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.ClearContents
Trying this
Cells.Replace What:="#N/A", Replacement:=" ", LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=True, SearchFormat:=True, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
LookIn:= is highlighted and I get a "named argument not found"
Don't understand that because LookIn:=xlValues works in the first code.
I did try and place After:=ActiveCell,before this, but that does not work. I Get the same error.
I have more then one cell with the #N/A which I would like to get rid of. I want this to work only on this one sheet. The other sheet that the formula is pulling from does have #N/A, and that is okay, I need it there.
I have a list of sales associates that are assigned numbers. For example, John Doe is 1022. The data I have to work with only shows his number 1022 but for my reports management wants the name John Doe. I have about 60 sales associates and have a VB code that 'finds and replaces'. The code is huge. It has slowly grown out of hand, with more sales associates added daily. I also have 22 sheets in one workbook with specific columns to search for the numbers to replace with the names.
This is what I would like to do. Have a sheet named associates, as more associates are added I would just have to add their name and number. Have two columns with headers column A - Associates column B Associate #. Name ranges for the two columns and write a code that says look in the sheet associate, at named range 'numbertoname' and if the current sheet 'total sales' I am in has the number 1022 in column C replace it with the name John Doe. It seems like it should be easy but.......I have tried and tried today.
I am facing a strange problem with Find and Replace function of Excel. I converted a PDF document into a Word document. I copied the tables in the Word document to an Excel document. As the data had many ‘*’ characters, which I did not want, I used Find and Replace function to get rid of them. However, to my surprise, two things were happening.
1.When I tried to replace ‘*’ in a cell with ‘ Construction revenue ********************** ’, it was deleting all the contents of the cell.
2.When I tried to find all the cells with ‘*’ , it was selecting cells even without ‘*’
I tried various things like changing the format, pasting only values..etc, but nothing worked. Finally I had to use the Replace function of VBA to do the task. For further analysis I am attaching my Excel file with that data.

I have two columns with aproximately 80,000 rows each lets say column A and D.
Column A has numbers and it is the most recent data extracted from a program. Column D has also numeric records most of which are also in column A.
I need a macro that will take each number in column D and compare it to column A when the macro finds that the number in D exists in column A it shoudl move the number on the same row on column B (right next to it)
If the number does not exist on on columna a It should start a list on column C.
In the attached file I want to do a Find/Replace for 599 --> 599.0 and 428 --> 428.0. When I do a F/R for each it tells me it has made 3 and 5 replacements respectively but the data is not changed?
