Is there a macro that will allow me to create text to row from a comma separated cell, but also associate the cell to its left automatically?
The table below exemplifies what I need. The top of the spreadsheet is how my data is currently. The portion after the break is how I would like it to be.
I have over 600 rows that needs this done.
1,2,3,4

I want to grab everything left of the last occurrence of "." in a string, and in the next cell everything right of the last occurrence of "."
so say the string is 111.111.1.222
column 1
111.111.1
column 2
222
my current code (which works, but its messy) for the first cell is
I have a spreadsheet in which I use a match function to find the row a name is on. The name may be listed several times and the name has a comma in it, for example, "Tom, George". I got it to work once, but it doesn't always work. Is it because of the comma or because it is in the lookup several times? It's my understanding the Excel will return the row number for the first time it sees the name in the list, which is what I want.

I have the below in cells A1 and A2. I need to find the last comma then return all characters after it. I need the same formula for both cells because the value is always changing.
HUG,PU-TUB,BW,-,-,64 Need to Return 64 in B1
HUG,PU-RFL,BW,-,-,176 Need to Return 176 in B2
When the entry in a cell is of the format e.g 3,4 is there any way to find the value 3 or 4 in that cell?
Attempts like:
Cells(i, 1).Value = variable (e.g variable=3)
or
Set cell_found = Cells.Range("A1:A10").Find(variable, lookat:=xlWhole)
do not find the cell with the 3 (or 4). The above work fine when 3 or 4 are alone in the cell. Is there anyway to find these values in the cell?
Table A: I have data separated by coma & space in cells A1:A4
A: Data Table
*A110, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60
211, 21, 31, 41, 51, 70
316, 19, 37, 48, 59, 81
418, 23, 33, 42, 57, 78
Table B: I want to calculate difference between cells A1:A2, A2:A3 and so on…
And if it is possible as shown in cell B2:B4
B: Result Table
*AB110, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60
211, 21, 31, 41, 51, 70
+1, +1, +1, +1, +1, +1
316, 19, 37, 48, 59, 81
+5, -2, +6, +7, +9, +11
418, 23, 33, 42, 57, 78
+2, +4, -4, -6, -2, -3
Separating cells A1:A4 data in separate cells can do this.
But if it is possible solution can be done as shown by VBA will be greater.
solve this thing.

In my workbook I have 10 columns with data, starting at A12 and down. This could be several hundred rows.
I would like to export the first three columns only (Column A, B and C). The TXT file should have the following:
First line: "This file was exported from Excel"
Second line: The value of cell B4 of the worksheet
Third line: The value of cell B5 of the worksheet
Fourth line: Today's date ( as 27/Sep/2007)
Fifth line: No entries (Empty row)
Sixth line will be the first numeric transfer. This is cell A12 value, cell B12 value and cell C12 value.
Seventh line: Cell A13 value, cell B13 value and cell c13 value.
etc, until the end or selected amount of rows.
The values of the different columns should be separated by commas
Column A values could be 9 characters (5 numerics with 4 decimals - 12345.6789)
Column B values could be 10 characters (6 numerics with 4 decimals - 123456.7890)
Column C values could be 10 characters (6 numerics with 4 decimals - 123456.7890)
The text file therefor would look as follows:
This file was exported from Excel.
Company ABC

27/Sep/2007
123.4567, 23.7654, 123.4567

I tried to adapt jindon's code but no luck.
I am currently doing it the long way.
='[Workbook1.xls]MySheet'!$A12&", "&'[Workbook1.xls]MySheet'!$B12&", "&'[Workbook1.xls]MySheet'!$C12
This works but I really liked what jindon did and wondered if it could be adapted to fit my needs.
I need a simple way to extract the comma in 14,656 imported text so I can do a vlookup against 14656.
Cell A1 = 78-36
This is a win/loss ratio so to have it as a percentage I would have to divide the first number by the sum of the two numbers so 78/114 = 68.4% How would you do this with a formula?
I came up with this that isn't quite right, because RIGHT and FIND don't work together.
=LEFT(A1,FIND("-",A1,1)-1)/(LEFT(A1,FIND("-",A1,1)-1)+RIGHT(A1,FIND("-",A1,1)-1))
There must be a smarter way of doing this. TY

I am compiling a database of tennis stats for various players. I input the set scores (like 6-4) and I then need excel to find "-", go to the left and right, and add up all cells containing these scores on a full row.
For example:
6-4, 6-4, 6-4 would become 18-12
I can do this by using "find" and left/right. The problem is, the more records I add, the more I have to keep changing the formula.
[Code] .........
Is there a faster way to do this, preferably without using macros.
Got the following formula:-
=LEFT(L5, FIND("(",L5)-1)
I need to add the SUBSTITUTE function to this but can't figure out where it goes if somebody could point me in the right direction please? My substitute formula is SUBSTITUTE(L5,"car","train").
I have a column A1 that consists of a range of values separated by a comma.
row 1:value 1, value 2, value 3, value 4
row2: value1, value 4
Row 3: value 2, value3
I want to get the unique counts for each value in the filtered list. This one field is not filtered but the others in the table are so I only want the counts of value 1-4 when the entire list is filtered.
I have been able to accomplish this with individual values using the following formula:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET('1. Respondents'!$C$7:$C$39312,ROW
('1. Respondents'!$C$7:$C$39312)-MIN(ROW('1. Respondents'!$C$7:$C$39312)),,1)),
--('1. Respondents'!$C$7:$C$39312=C4))
This works great other than the fact that I need to count total values of the column in an array.
I am trying to find a code that will simply find the last cell in Column A of a named Range (titled: ConditionlFormatArea)?
Also IF I could get a line(s) of code that would just find the last cell in Column A of the Used Area.
I ask for both because I am not yet certain which line of code will work best for me.
When I have that cell located I need to Remove the Conditional Formatting. I think I can get the code for that part.

Im trying to pull together a formula to achieve the below. What i have is a spreadsheet to be used by staff in different countries so im looking to make it easy to modify the categories used without the user needing to do anything complex with formulas.
The right hand side of my file (C:E) shows a code for each year we have covered a country with the year as a prefix (2014 - Blah). The left (A:B) is a summary showing the latest year we covered that country.
Current formula:
{=IF(COUNTA(C2:D2)<=0,"","✔-"&MAX(LEFT(C2:D2&"0",4)*1))}
The current formula works fine if you set the columns to where the data actually is but for ease of use i need it to look at the data in rows 1:2 and match up the Continent/Country and then MAX the dates.
I'm looking for a way to split a cell with text into two cells. The first cell can only contain up to 40 characters, the rest needs to go in the second cell. However, I don't want the text to be split in the middle of a word. So basically, if the text is in cell A1, I need to find the closest space to the left of position 40 in A1, and move anything to the right of this position to B1. Example:
Original text:
A1: One green apple and a bucket of small onions that smell nice
I want to avoid this:
A1: One green apple and a bucket of small on
B1: ions that smell nice
I want to achieve this:
A1: One green apple and a bucket of small
B1: onions that smell nice

I have a string of text in one cell on Sheet 1 (ie., A1, Sheet 1), here is a excerpt:
A-dec International Inc., A. Bellotti, A. DEPPELER S.A., etc ...
What I need to do is split the cell into separate rows, using the comma as a delimiter. I will be reading the cell from another sheet and need a formula that will provide me with
A1: A-dec International Inc.
A2: A. Bellotti
A3: A. DEPPELER S.A.
Im going to try to make this as clear as possible. I cant use my actual data because it wouldnt make any sense to anyone so Ive made up an example problem. Here goes...
Lets say in Sheet 1 I have two descending columns of data. Column A is MODEL of Vehicle (Civic for example). Column B is vehicle identification number (xxx for example). Sheet two has 4 columns of data, but only one is really required for this example. Cell A1 is the MAKE of vehicle (Honda for example). Directly below that in Cell A2 is the MODEL of the vehicle (Civic). There are then a few rows of empty space until it gets to the next vehicle MAKE and MODEL.
So in Sheet1 there is a long list of MAKE's in ColumnA and VIN's in ColumnB. Sheet2 Has a long list of MAKE's and MODEL's in ColumnA and random data in other columns.
What I want to do is assemble a Macro to start in Sheet1-A2, read the MODEL then copy the corresponding Vehicle Identification Number in B2. I then want it to go to Sheet2-A2 and start searching downward until it comes across a matching MODEL. Once it finds the match I want it to step downward 2 cells and paste the Vehicle Identification Number. Then return to Sheet1-A3, and repeat the process until EOF.
I am using the find or search function but I need to read my text string from right to left (from the end of the string, instead of from the beggining). Is there a way to do this?
How can you make the text of a checkbox appear on th left hand side of the checkbox?
or can it only appear onthe right?
else is there a way to make the text box not exist or invisible,

In a large database with a large portion of cells that contains a flag to the left of a number "<LD 2.0" what would be the quickest way to move the flag to the left of the number so that it reads "2.0 <LD". This seems like it should be simple to do. I would prefer not to have to use a second cell and formula to do the modification if that makes sense. I'd rather do a "Find and Replace" if possible.
