Find Specific Character - Copy Into Next Row & Continue

Mar 13, 2008

I have an excel file in which the cell has more than 3000 entries, like following. I would like to copy the contents before ";" to next row & continue.

Question:

CN=123,CN=12,CN=ABC,CN=AB,;CN=345,CN=34,CN=CDF,CN=DC,;CN=510,CN=51,CN=PQR,CN=PQ;

Answer should be in excel:
CN=123,CN=12,CN=ABC,CN=AB
CN=345,CN=34,CN=CDF,CN=DC
CN=510,CN=51,CN=PQR,CN=PQ

I do not know how can I achieve this through "Macro". I would like to detect ; in the cell & copy the contents before/after it in the next rows & continue till the last figure.

Find Cell That Contains Specific Character?

Jul 17, 2012

Cells A1:A5 all have a vlookup formula that will pull one of the following into it:

1. The word "NONE"
2. #N/A error since it doesn't exist in the table
3. A text value that has the format 13.55.46.91

I want a formula that will look at these 5 cells and give me #3. That #3 value can only appear once in the 5 cells in any of those 5. The other 4 cells will contain either 1 or 2.

3 always has length equal to 11. It always has periods in those places. The digits do change.

How To Find Duplicated String Before A Character That Contains Specific Word

May 16, 2014

In column A, I have the following lines:

2014-05-15 02:08:43 @Centre INFO - CHANGE WORLD (Original World to Destination World)
2014-05-15 02:31:37 @Centre INFO - CHANGE WORLD (Original World to Destination World)
2014-05-15 02:37:19 @Centre INFO - CHANGE WORLD (Original World to Destination World)
2014-05-15 02:37:20 @Centre INFO - CHANGE WORLD (Original World to Destination World)
2014-05-15 03:07:19 @Centre INFO - CHANGE WORLD (Original World to Destination World)
2014-05-15 15:01:37 @Centre INFO - CHANGE WORLD (Original World to Destination World)
2014-05-15 15:04:46 @Centre INFO - CHANGE WORLD (Original World to Destination World)

I would like to use conditional formatting to highlight cells which have the same first 16 characters (yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm) before the "@" AND that contains the words "CHANGE WORLD". Therefore, I'm looking for a formula I could include in the conditional formatting so I can easily find the "CHANGE WORLD" that occurred at the same time (minus the seconds, they may vary slightly).

Find And Delete Depending On Answer To Msgbox Then Continue Loop

Jun 5, 2012

I am trying to build a macro that will search a column for the word "TEST" and when it finds that word it needs to prompt the user with a YesNo message box (or something similar) if they would like to delete the entire row that contains TEST. If Yes is selected, it should delete the row and continue on to find the next TEST in the column and repeat this process. If the user selects No, it should continue on to find the next TEST in the column and repeat this process.

How To Find A Specific Text And Copy This Entire Row

Find Specific Cell, Copy Row And Paste Into New Sheet

Nov 15, 2006

I have a excel file with two worksheets. I need to find a specific row in column g, cut the entire row, and paste it into sheet2. I have started off by using this code, that I got off of some site. It works wonderfully in finding the specific cell, but just copys and moves the specific cell into sheet2. Whereas I need it to cut and paste the entire row where it finds the cell that begins with a 3 in column G.

Sub Copy_To_Another_Sheet_1()
Dim FirstAddress As String
Dim myArr As Variant
Dim Rng As Range
Dim Rcount As Long

Macro To Find Specific Text In Column And Copy Certain Cells In Same Row To Different Sheet

Dec 30, 2011

how to work macros or VBA

I have a workbook with multiple sheets named by month and year that I use to keep track of loans I work with at a bank. In these sheets I have info such as:

Column B = due date
Column D = loan# A
Column E = loan# B
Column F = status
Column H = followup needed
(Columns A,C, and G aren't important for the current need)

What I am trying to do is create a main sheet (TRACKER) that all I will have to do is press a macro button and it will pull info for each loan that is in a pending status.

I need a macro that will search column F (Status) on all sheets and find each instance of "Pending" and once that is done, copy rows B,D,E, and H in each "Pending" instance and copy them to their designated area on my TRACKER sheet. After that is done I need it to continue to the next "pending" instance and do the same on the next available line on my TRACKER sheet.

The overall goal would be that everyday I can press the macro and it will repopulate the sheet with the current pending items (as each day I will change pending status' to complete and no longer need to track it the next day).

I already have the tracker sheet set up and ready to go with the spaces as follows:
Column G&H = Merged cells where due date will need to go
Column I&J = Merged cells where loan# A will need to go
Column K&L = Merged cells where loan# B will need to go
Column M thru S = Merged cells where followup needed will need to go

Find Specific Value In Column Of Another Sheet Then Copy Range Of That Row Onto Destination Workbook

Jun 19, 2014

I have data that is on a separate .txt file (the source file) that resembles this;

A
B
C
D
E
F

1
Case
District
Pct
Division
Level1
Level2

2
305035
0
20
72

[Code] ..........

Using VBA from within the destination workbook, I would like to use an input box that allows the user to request/specify what numerical number (0 through 55) in Column B of the txt file (the source file) will be used to determine what data to copy to the destination file. The cells to copy to the destination file would be from Column A through Column G of the source file onto Sheet1, E2 of the destination file.

Column B of the Source file will only contain numbers. However there will be numerous identical numbers in Column B. All of which will need to be copied onto the destination workbook.

From the sample above, if the user were to enter '15' in the input box, the desired result on the destination sheet beginning at E2 would look like this;

E
F
G
H
I
J

1
Case
District
Pct
Division
Level1
Level2

2
502046

How To Remove Specific Text Before A Character

May 5, 2014

1) In any cell, I would like to remove "Area#xxxxxxxxx" (where x are random numbers).

Example : "INFO Log - [sys] Area#541185471Character#46545"

2) I would like to remove x characters before a word.

Example : 2013-08-28.txt@INFO

I would need to remove 14 characters before the character "@".

I tried to play with the LEN and RIGHT/LEFT formula but so far, I can't get it to work... The idea is to parse some text and remove the part in red (I was thinking about using SUBSTITUTE).

Returning Value If A Cell Contains Specific Character?

Feb 25, 2014

Essentially what I'm trying to accomplish is import a file from Quickbooks and determine whether it was a Credit Card, Check or Invoice based on the account number.

For example:

45-12345 should return the value CC in an adjacent cell because it contains the "-" character.
I0123456 should return the value INV in an adjacent cell because it contains the "I" character.
01234567 should return the value ACH in an adjacent cell because it doesn't contain either character.

I tried using VLookup, but I can't figure out how to write a formula for when it just contains a character, only if it matches it or is text/number.

Replace Specific Character ONLY If Its LAST In The Sheet

Nov 27, 2013

Switched to Excel after using OpenOffice and I'm stuck on knowing what an old a 'find and replace' formula would be in Excel. It would remove a specific character (or word) ONLY if it was the last characters in a cell.

The old find and replace for open office:
Find: (.*)/$
Replace: $1

It's not that important now to delete a word, mainly the last slash '/' ONLY if it's the last character e.g. this data has 2 rows with a '/' as the last character

website.com/page
website.com/page/
website.com/page/page/

Running my old find and replace formula would remove the last slashes, but leave the others

website.com/page
website.com/page
website.com/page/page

Need simple replacement to the find and replace but a formula is also right.

Mar 23, 2009

I need to make a list of Part Numbers in quotation marks. If a number of digits of a P/N is less than 13 a number of space characters has to be added to make the string 13 characters long.

We have example P/N:

"1234567890123(no extra space characters should be filled-13chars)"
"12345678(5 extra space characters here)"
"123456(7 extra space characters)"

Is there a function that inputs a cerain number of a specific character ("space" in this example)?

Delete Characters After Last Specific Character Occurence

Jun 11, 2008

I have one column with many numbers. Some have one dash and some have two.

Example:
123-123456-65
012-789546-1
98B12354-889

Is there a way that I can remove all characters after the last – (dash) in the number?
Example:

If number is 123-123456-65
Then 123-123456

If number is 98B12354-889
Then 98B12354

If someone could just lead me in a direction, I might be able to figure it out. However, my code is elementary and most of the time, I record macros and the play with the code until it does what I want.

I wish to truncate the field so I have just the integer without the dot, space or word(s).

Tried Len, Left & Replace but they require a specific number of characters. Since the number can be 1 to 3 digits long, this doesn't work.

Conditional Formatting - Highlight Cell Containing Specific Character Within Text

Jul 26, 2013

I have an excel spread sheet & I wish to highlight any cell that contains any of the following characters with in a string of text.

/ : * " < > ? |

E.g. a cell in the spread sheet containing the text "Is this a Question?" would be highlighted.

I have tried to use - 'Format only cells that contain' > Specific Text > Containing > for each of the characters and this does not work.

When I do this any cell containing any text is highlighted.

In addition there is formatting on any cell > 60 characters which turns the cell red and this works fine.

What would happen if (when I get the problem above resolved), a cell is > than 60 characters & contains a character listed above?

Does 1 formatting take precedent over another?

(Not critical to know the answer to the additional question, just curious - as long as it is highlighted one colour or another then no problem.)

Find Is Not Finding Character String?

I have a cell that has approx 22000 characters. I'm trying to remove a specific character string from a cell by doing a find and replace with "". It works for characters in the first part of the cell but not for characters in the last part of the cell.

Example: I do a find/replace for the characters 21242 to "" in column A and I get the expected results. I do a find/replace on 69294 to "", again I get the expected results, but if I do a find/replace on 85203 to "", I get "Excel cannot find what I am searching for" (but its there!)

My cell size is within the max size of 32,767 characters so not sure why its not working.
