I have a large keyword phrase list.
In a sheet called "AllKWs".
What I would like to be able to do is find all Country and town names in that list and delete the names only in the phrase, not the whole row.
Several points though.
Can the macro (As I will assign a text button to it).
Only find and delete these words if they are either at the start or end of a phrase?
4 example phrases; ....
Any way of finding particular data from a data set and deleting the data from that field without using conditional formatting or remove duplicates?
I have used a vlookup to find the words that I needed I now need to find where the are located in my original data set and delete these so I am left with data that if I perform a vlookup on it will not bring back any words as they will have been deleted.
Attached is a sample file that has a Data entry sheet in which the user can paste in data. They can test & paste anywhere from 1 to 50 compounds at a time and run the list through 1 to 55 Assays. I want to generate a sheet (Plate & Assay Info) that would first display the list of compounds that were tested as well as the list of Assays that they were run through.

I've attempted to modify some code I found on the internet and not having very good luck with it. Here is the scenario, I've got a spreadsheet with 5 columns (A to E). In column C, there is a product name with certain identifiers that set it apart. An example of this product name with identifier is "product XXX_type 2_attribute ". I want to search for "type 2" in Column C of each row and then delete the row.
Here is what I have written so far and I'm not having any luck.

I deal with leads for a sales room and get sent over leads in bulk, I've created a master scrub list that I can attach to the end of a new lead file and sort by number to show which are duplicates.
When you do the: Data, Filter, Advanced Filter, select Unique Records, it hides the duplicate but what I need is not only for the duplicate to be hidden or gone but the row that it is a duplicate of, i.e. I need BOTH rows to go
Name-----number
Dave 555-1212
Dave 555-1212
John 536-2343
Smith 423-2312
needs to become
Name-----number
John 536-2343
Smith 423-2312
I would need a formula that figured out that Dave with number 555-1212 was a duplicate and delete BOTH rows,
I was wondering if there is a formula or command to find and delet specific rows. I want to remove people from an excel email list.
On Sheet 1, I have 500 rows with columns for first name, last name, and email.
On Sheet 2, I have 30 rows with columns for first name, last name, and email that appear on Sheet 1 but need to be removed.
Is there a way to do this without manually searching for each email and then deleting the row?
I want to delete a row in a spreadsheet by finding the row that contains a particular value. I use MATCH on spreadsheet #1 to identify the row number on spreadsheet #2 to delete. I need the macro to select the row number on spreadsheet #2 and delete it.
I don't know the syntax for the commands in VBA to write this and I'm coming to this forum for help because I'm too lazy to learn VBA. I've recorded macros to add rows, populate cells, hide sheets, etc. The following code is extracted from a macro I recorded to try to get started, and was hoping to be able to substitue a reference to sheet1 within the parentheses at
Rows("4:4").Select
but I can't make this work. The following is the code I was trying to adapt.
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Rows("4:4").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
End Sub
I have a excel file with more then 10 sheets..Some of the sheets contains this word in some random cells" #DIV/0! " I want a macro which can find it in every sheet except parent sheet and can remove it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a macro that will look in each row and find the first nonzero that it contains, and then proceed to delete all prior cells before it and shift the existing cells in that row to the left. Now I know that the formula to find a non-zero in a row is:
=(MATCH(TRUE,INDEX(B9:BE9>0,0),0)-1)
and I figured that to select all cells before it you would simply use:
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToLeft)).Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
My problemms are:
I can't figure out how to translate that formula into a piece of the macro and also instead of having it simply calculate how many zeros there are until the first nonzero to get it to select that first nonzero
How to make the selection conditional upon the row. At first I thought maybe I could just have it paste the formula into the first cell of the row but I realized that it wasn't possible to do as the formula already has the row selected
How to have it select all the prior cells to the first nonzero, delete them and shift existing cells to the left without deleting the first nonzero.
I have two lists of product data, one for buyers and one for sellers (these are listed as A, B, C). The product names are not exactly the same (Eg Playstation and playstation three should be matched), I would have thought using the FuzzyLogic add in to match these would be the way forward! I need to rank the sellers by how many of their items appear on the buyers list

I am working on a workbook where I have a huge list of hotels for a specific city; 'Hotels List'. I have a seperate workbook where I have a Black List of hotels; 'Black List'.
I would like a macro which checks the Black List and deletes the row of all of the hotels in 'Black List' from 'Hotels List' so that I am just left with good hotels and none of the hotels in my black list appear in my hotel list.
Is this possible?
On Sheet 1 I have a list of employee names (John, Bob, Ross etc...)in column A and in column B I have a list of employee bonus points (1, 5, 3 etc...). On Sheet 2 I have the same setup but the list of employees on sheet 2 is a lot longer than the ones on sheet 1, all employee names are on sheet 2.
I need a macro that will go down to each name on the list on sheet 1, column A, and copy the employee bonus points then go to sheet 2 and find the that employees name in the list and paste the bonus points in column B. This must be done until the last name on sheet 1 is found and all points are copied to their corresponding names on sheet 2.
I am a tax auditor, and I am working with excel and I have two lists. One is a complete list of items, both taxable and non-taxable, the other is a list of just non-taxable. I highlighted the non-taxable sales and copied and pasted them under the main list, and I want to delete all the non-taxable items. Basically, the only duplicates in my list are non-taxable, and I need to delete ALL of them.

I am currently trying to organise a student yearbook for my pupils at school. We have given out sheets to students in order for them to nominate their peers for various awards such as 'Funniest Student', 'Most Caring Student' etc.
I am trying to collate all of the data into an excel workbook. I have made two sheets within a workbook, which I have formatted how I want them to look like. I want to insert all the student's responses into one sheet, and somehow, the top 3 most occurring nominations are found and are inserted into the appropriate cells in the separate sheet.
I have attached a copy of the workbook. Due to data protection the student names and tutor groups have been taken out and replaced with the word "REMOVED", yet I will paste them back in at a later time. So feel free to have a play around to see what I am talking about! I have filled the table with some dummy data just so you can see what I mean.
I am not at all sure how I would go about picking out the top 3 most occurring names for each award, but once I can do that, I will be able to insert them into the other sheet. How to automatically produce the top 3 most occurring names.

I have a number (22.3) in a cell that is there from an Hlookup function. I am then using a vlookup to lookup the 22.3 (from the hlookup) in a column. The number is in the column, but the vlookup function cant find it. If I were to type over my hlookup formula so that I am hand-typing in "22.3" instead of it being their from the hlookup, then the vlookup works just fine. I hope that is not too confusing. I dont understand what is going on. I checked to make sure none of my cells are rounding and therefore creating a look-alike number when it really isn't and that is not the case.
I know how to make customs lists, but it's not getting me anywhere.
Let's say I have a lot of data containing values as follows and in the following list I sorted them from small to large:
5a
5a+
5b
5b+
5c
5c+
6a
6a+
6b
6b+
6c
6c+
7a
7a+
7b
7b+
7c
7c+
8a
and so on... In the list, the date isn't sorted from small to large, many values (if not all) occur multiple times and on occasion some values are added to the column. With that last part I mean that you can see it as a batch of 500, and if so far the batch only contains 450 values there will be (for the time being until items get added) 50 empty cells in the column as well.
You can't order numerically or alphabetically. I know I can make a custom list and then just sort according to that custom list so the biggest value would come out on top or bottom but that's not what I'm looking for either, as the data needs to be sort by another colomn (dates in chronological order).
So I'm just looking for a formule saying "return the biggest value if the order of things is as I typed above'.
The basis of my needs is to be able to find in a list of names, a duplicate name from previous list and then grab and populate a number from that row. Here is an example
A B C D
Doe,Jane $1000 $250 $750
Smith,John $700 $100 $600
Wilson,Alan $1500 $1500 $0
I update the list, some names are added and others taken away. When I add the new list, column C of every name is $0. I want the formula to find names from the previous list and populate Column C with the value of Column C + D of the corresponding name. Also I have a separate formula that simply is D=(B-C) The result of what I would want this to look like is this...
A B C D
Doe,Jane $1200 $1000 $200
Doe,John $500 $0 $500
Smith,John $1000 $700 $300
As you can see there was a new name added to the list (Doe,John) and a name taken away from the list (Wilson,Alan). Column C is the only Column that I am wanting to auto populate. The Value in Column B is a variable that is managed by another program so you don't have to worry about that.
Keep in mind there will be multiple instances of this list and the same name will occur more than once in the spreadsheet. There are not duplicate names that are different customers though as my other program takes care of that. eg. "Doe,John" and "Doe,John #2". I only want it to grab the information from the previous list not ones previous to that list(if that makes sense) third example...
A B C D
Doe,Jane $1500 $1200 $300
Doe,John $500 $500 $0
Miller,Joe $700 $0 $700
Smith, John $1300 $1000 $300
My current method of accomplishing this is to select the previous list and print it. I then go down the new list and cross reference it with the old one keying in the values by hand. This would be a huge time saver as the list is 250 names and growing. I hope I have given enough information but undoubtedly I have not. So feel free to ask me any questions and for more details. I did not want to go to in depth for fear of my post being to long.
I've been turning this problem over it my head for the last day and can't seem to come up with a decent solution, so I figured I'd post it here to see if anybody else had any bright ideas.
I have a data sheet with a dropdown list on it to select the month and year that determines how the rest of the data sheet populates. Basically I'm giving weekly breakdowns of data for a month at a time, with the "Week Ending" heading (which are dates - Saturdays), populating off of the month and year selected from the dropdown.
So, to give an example, if somebody selects March 2008 in the dropdown, it will populate the week ending dates of 3/1, 3/8, 3/15, 3/22, 3/29, and then pull out the specific data for each week based on those dates.
What I'd like to do is write a formula that will find the first Saturday of the month. The way I have it jury-rigged right now is a list of months with the first Saturday listed next to it and a vlookup to grab the date of the first Saturday. I envision using this report indefinitely into the future and I'd like to avoid having to keep adding/changing the manual list of Saturdays, instead preferring to have a way to determine the date.
I have a list of numbers in Column A (labeled "Number"), with a list of dates in Column B (labeled "Date & Time"). Every date in Column B is unique, but some numbers in Column A appear more than once.
I am trying to create a simple formula that will automatically search for the LAST time a unique number appears in Column A (ignoring all previous instances of this number), and copy the date right next to it in Column B to another location on another worksheet.
I tried fussing with several of the built-in functions, but I really don't know what I'm doing, and the built-in help documents are filled with too much mathematical/programmer technical terminology for me to understand. All the tutorials I've looked at seem to think I want to add some numbers together, but I don't want to do any calculations!
In column A we have words, like this:
CHAIR
EXCEPT
WORLD
STREET
OUTSIDE
PEOPLE
WINDOW
LETTER
BOOK
In column B we have another list of words:
NIGHT
DREAM
EXPECT
THOUGHT
TEDIOUS
OFFICE
SETTER
LIBRARY
BEFORE
OFFER
I need a formula in C1 which will check all the words from column B and find the ones which are anagrams of some of the words from column A, and then return those words next to them.
(Anagram is the word made up of another word's letters, without repeating or omitting any, for example anagram of SPARK is PARKS).
In the example above, we would have the words: EXCEPT next to EXPECT (in C3), OUTSIDE next to TEDIOUS (C5), and STREET next to SETTER (C7).

cat elf clown

until all are listed. I understand there is a huge number, I don't mind having a couple of thousand as long as they are all genuinely unique.
I CAN have elf dog cat, elf cat dog, dog elf cat later on ... it's just the order that needs to be unique not the words in the phrase.
