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.

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?

I have a series of numbers in cells A1 to A5, e.g: 5,15,19,3,105 now my target value is 23. Is this possible that we can come to know which values we can sum to get our target value. in this case cells sum of A1,A2,A4 is 23 which is my target value.
in the same way i will set other target value , it should show which are the number which should be summed to get my target value.

I'm trying to create a macro that will take a value found on Sheet 1 in Column A and search Sheet 2 Column D. If the value matches exactly it will highlight the row on Sheet 2 in Red and if a match is found but it has some extra characters in the list it will highlight the row in Yellow. I have included a sample sheet to show you exactly how the outcome should look. It will need to run on a loop until there are no more values found in Column A on sheet 1.

This macro finds and replaces multiple values found on another sheet. however, it does not only take the exact value, also others.
Example:
If i want to change "Example 1", "Example 2", ... "Example 10" into "One", "two", etc. Example 10 then changes into "One 0" because it changes the Example 1 (without the 0 in 10) into One. Is there any way to alter this (or do you have another macro to replace multiple values?

This section of code I am working on requires me to find an exact text (I tried lookat:=xlWhole, but I can't get it to work right). The problem being is when it searches for Q1, Q10 is an acceptable answer ans so on. I need to get the 4th occurrence, but my research into Nth occurrence stuff is confusing.
The search is in a single column.
With Workbooks("FY12-Q3 Data Tables.xlsx").Sheets("PBA Crosstabs").Columns(1)
Set c = .Find(rCell, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
End With

I have a list of names in column A1:A20 and have a number im trying to match within cell A22.,
The data with all the values in is B1:K20.
what im trying to do is find the exact number (somewhere within the B1:K20 field) and then tell me what the corresponding name is in Column A1:20.
Ive tried match, vlookup, array, all with no success. i can match it 1 row at a time but cant get it to work when there is more than 1 column to look in.

How do i find an exact match in a range (Text exactly the same just like the exact function)
=MATCH(A1,B1:B10,0) This will match the rad and Rad to be the same but what i want is the exact match
I know the exact function does not take an range so how can i amend to take this to account?
Something like =Exact(A1,B1:B10)

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.

Col. B dates are and cannot be sorted
The idea is to find the exact or the closest lower date to those in col. E
as per two criterias (col. D+E)
I prefer no helper column and no macro

Is it possible to find duplicate rows that are not EXACT identical. Conditional formatting can find duplicate rows but they must be identical exactly(ofcourse)(even extra SPACE,COMMA,DOT wont find duplicates)
I have name and address(street address) columns. I don not want my invitation cards or mails go to same address twice.
As you can see in the file ..all 5 records belong to same address.(address entered in diff styles,some comma,space extra..etc) 4 and 5 are Son and Wife of 1st person. Row 5 and 6 have same text but one extra space in 5th row makes it unique so i need to eliminate such records with same address So can i set some formula so that duplicate rows will be highlighted if any 3-4 words match ?

In the four rows of text below I'm trying to match each gas stick to its corresponding gasline.
I think I can count over to "GAS STICK" and get the number. <15> From that point I can count over to "," (comma) and get that number. <26> So the gas stick will be between the first number and one less than the second number. <GAS STICK 1>
I need completing this code to place a the line or stick number in a cell B of the same row. Column A would have the description and column B of the same row would either be "1" or "11" respectively. Column C would be the shortened description (GAS STICK 1).
1] "HUNGA, DUNGA, GAS STICK 1, THINGY"
2] "DOHICKY, GAS STICK 11, THINGUS"
3] "SCAPPEN, DAPPER, GASLINE 1"
4] "SUCH, AND, SUCH, GASLINE 11"

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

I can use find and replace to remove the following, however as I would be doing the same process numerous times it would be very tedious.
I would like 2 VBA scripts.
1 - replace the following letters (uppercase & lower) in Column A and C replace A, V, N, Z, X, Q
so if it finds A it would remove A from the cell.
The cells may contain other letters including these one's i.e
A123XCB235 or
123VBN7779A
2 - The second independent code would replace the characters replace A, V, N, Z, X, Q with P, M, L, R, J, H ie. A becomes P, V becomes M etc...
Again the cells may contain other letters including these one's i.e
A123XCB235 or
123VBN7779A

I have:
www.abc.com/
www.abc.com/def
what I want is to basically remove the "/" after the .com but keep it on the second one.
So final result should be
www.abc.com
www.abc.com/def
when I do find and replace of "/" with a blank it makes it www.abce.comdef, which is not what I want.

I am trying to remove the last 6 character from a variable. I worked out how to do it using formula's in XL, but want to move this in to VBA. Currently I have this
Mid(ActiveSheet. Name, 1, Find(" Intrdy", LookIn:=ActiveSheet.Name))
however it does not like the find function. Does it exist? am I using it correctly?

I have a column 'AE' that contains the html code for ecommerce item descriptions. While importing/exporting back and forth with another program and my spreadsheet, the following was added all throughout the descriptions.
%0d%0a
In some places, it may be three or four times consecutively
%0d%0a%0d%0a%0d%0a%0d%0a
Is there a macro script I could run to simply remove this any time it occurs in this column? It is just showing up as text and I am sure in another program it was representing something other than text, probably a space or hard return. Regardless, I don't need it.
See example below: ....

I have an input sheet with 3 columns: Currency pair, Tenors, and Value.
Like this:
EURUSD 1m 3
EURUSD 3m 0
EURUSD 1y 5
GBPUSD 1w 2
GBPUSD 1m 9
GBPUSD 2m 1
etc etc for about 100+ rows.
This input is exported from a system we have and may vary in length and values from time to time.
What I want to do is pull all the data for specific currency pairs (probably for 5 of the 10+ currency pairs it displays) onto another worksheet. And for each tenor for that currency pair, i want to perform 10-20 lines of analysis on the next sheet.
So, if GBPUSD was a currency pair I was interested in, I would need 10-20 lines for GBPUSD 1w, 10-20 lines for GBPUSD 1m, 10-20 lines for GBPUSD 2m, etc.
How can I pull this? While maintaining flexibility so if the tenors, currencies, and # of lines change?

I have a list of parts in Column A, often times with duplicates in the column.
I have a list of parts in Column B (from another source), again, with duplicates.
What I need is - leaving columns A and B alone;
Column C to be unique Column A parts
Column D to be unique Column B parts
Column E to be parts in common between Columns C and D.

I need to make a macro that will find text between "o/" and "/", remove hyphens from the text it found, and then add it to the end of the current cell contents.
I know how to add to the end of current cell contents, but cannot figure out how to grab text between certain characters or replace hyphens and replace with spaces.

I regularly have to add a few new lines to what is in fact a very simple data base I've had running for a long time in Excel. About 1200 lines now, one line per person. I add a dozen or so lines (i.e. people) at a time in a different colour.
When I re-sort the whole thing I run my eye down the list to spot partial double (i.e. duplicate) entries (the new ones in their own colour helps). Then I delete the double entries one by one. Pretty stoooopid, in'it?
How can I do this better, faster and more accurately with Excel to find just two duplicated data ( NAME and ID NUMBER) in a person's line (there are 15 columns altogether)? Or: Where and what can I search for (I've just spent nearly an hour trying to find an answer by myself, but don't really know what to search for)?

I have following sheet:
Data from A1: BU1644
I need to check, if in A1:BU1 are any duplicate words.
All the formulas I found deal with finding duplicates downward (like A1:A1000).
Have not seen any formula which works across (from left to right)
Is there an easy way in Excel 2010 either to tag/ and -or remove the duplicate which I could apply and then just copy downward? The formula must work from left to right, because many words repeat downward.

macro find parenthesis and remove string in every other cell in Col.A
The following formula works but is tedious to apply to every other cell:
=LEFT(A3,FIND("(",A3)-2)
Data Example:
Cell Value A2 = hello world I am A2 (this is an example)
Cell Value A3 = hello world I am A2
Then Delete the entire row A2 and apply this to every other A.Col.cell with the original data.

I have a large data set which contains four coloumns: Supplier, Supplier number, order number, and date/time of delivery. The date/time coloumn is formatted as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM with a 24h time notation. What i want to do is to find deliveries that occurs within 1 hour and that are from the same supplier. So i basically want to group (?) the data with regards to the suppliers and then, within these subsets, check for date/time entries that occurs within 1 hour from each others by "reading" each date entry and compare it to the following one(s) (and maybe stop comparing when the 1 hour interval is passed)?
Furthermore, even if this one might be very hard, it would be good if i could make sure that the entries that are "tagged" as within a 1 hour interval, wont be used as basis for a new interval or be included in other intervals.
The result i am after would be number of 1 hour intervals for each supplier and the number of entries in each interval.
Below is an example from the date/time coloumn:
12-03-08 15:32
12-03-08 15:33 ... Interval with 2 entries
12-03-12 14:54
12-03-28 11:57
12-04-16 09:10
12-05-07 13:41
12-05-07 13:46 ... Interval with 2 entries
12-05-28 11:55
12-05-28 12:00
12-06-04 12:01 ... Interval with 2 entries
12-06-04 12:09
12-06-11 08:30
12-06-11 08:31
12-06-11 08:59 ... Interval with 3 entries
12-07-02 11:10
