Formating With A Date And Text

Jan 9, 2009

I would like to format a cell so when i enter a six digit number, such as 123456 it would appear starting with a QW then the year, month and day in the format of yymmdd and them the six digit number so it would appear as QWYYMMDD123456, or since today is 01/09/09 is would be QW090109123456

I would like the yymmdd field to be taken from the main location where the date is entered and the QW can be in another field so when I go to another blank field and enter a six digit number, for example 123456 it will be changed to QW090108123456. I hope you can follow this and that I explained it in a matter that is understood.

Remove Formating ' From Text

Jun 14, 2006

I often get spread sheets to work with that have a non visable/printable character (') in front of them. I haven't been able to find a way to get rid of them other than editing each cell and removing it. I am sure there must be a way. I have attached a small sample of the cells in question.

Conditional Formating On Text Values

Jan 9, 2009

Been hunting around the forums but cant seem to find quite what I want.

I want to specify the background of a cell to be red if the text in that cell contains a specific word.

e.g. cell a1 will have the text 'Rest of World' (without quotes). I want this to show as red if it contains the word 'of'.

Of course the cell may contain other words but this illustrates what I'm looking to achieve.

I tried the following conditional formula but this does not work:

=IF(SEARCH("of",H3)>1,1,0)

Conditional Formating: Highlight Cells Based On Text Of Another Cell

Aug 28, 2009

I have created a drop down box that allows me to choose multiple different Text Options. Example: Cell B4 has dropdown that lets me choose the Text Options, "House", "Car" and "Truck".

Next, I have 5 or so other columns underneath with their own text. What I want to do is have different cells highlight themselves depending on what is in Cell B4.

Example, if "House" is selected in B4, I want cells B7 and B9 to highlight. If "Car" is selected, I want cells B7, B8, and B10 to highlight. If "Truck" is highlighted, I want cells B9-B11 to highlight. Is this possible to do? I've tried using If/Then statements, but those don't seem to work for this type of thing.

Excel 2013 :: Extract Date And Time Info From A Text Cell That Contains Text And Date And Time

Jul 19, 2014

I am using Excel 2013. Anyway, the first issue is that I need to pull a date and a time period from text. So, for example, if I see something like Sunday Prime Time 7/6/14 8:37PM, I would want to pull ONLY the "7/6/14 8:37PM" out of it. Each text box could potentially be different, so it might not always be in the same format as "Sunday Prime Time 7/6/14 8:37PM" it might only show just the date and/or the time without all the extra text i.e. 7/6/14 8:37PM. Some of the cells will have text, others might only have just the time or even just the date and the time. The only thing that I am worrying about in each cell is extracting just the date and time. If this is too much to ask of excel, I would be ok with extracting ONLY the time - 8:37PM and not the date, but I would much rather be able to get both the time and date.

THEN, onto part two of my question. After I would pull the dates and times, I need to compare them with each other. So, when I have the same date with two separate times on that date, I need to write a formula to show if those times on that date are less than 30 minutes apart. So, if I have 6 times on 7/6/14, I need to know if any of them are less than 30 minutes apart.

I would need to have the formula say something like "Problem" if the times on 7/6/14 would be 5:30PM, 5:48PM, 7:00PM, 8:00PM, 8:15PM, and 9:00Pm for example. I would like to see the word "Problem" since 5:30PM and 5:48Pm is only 18 minutes apart, and "Problem" after 8:15PM since that is only 15 minutes past the 8:00PM which is obviously under 30 minutes. The times that are more than 30 minutes apart such as 7:00PM and 9:00PM for example are more than 30 minutes apart from any of the other times that were extracted.

Auto Formating

Dec 1, 2008

I run an online store where all the product details are handled by a .CSV file and naturally all the information has to be exact or it won't work at all especially UPC codes and product codes. However whenever I open the .CSV file to edit anything it auto formats several bit of information including several UPCs and product codes that begin with one or more 0's. This among many other problem I have had are all caused by excel's auto formating "tool" and I find it of absolutely no use. Is there any way at all to disable this "tool" so it will stop messing with my data every time I need to make a product change? (I have tried using the '0 trick but when I save the file and open it again later all the '0s are gone again)

I am running Excel 2007 on Windows Vista SP1

Conditional Formating A Row

Jul 20, 2007

how to use the conditional format tool, but now the company i designed the spreadsheet for, wants me to implement a change. I'm attacking a copy of the spreadsheet so you can see the problem more easily. Now what I've been asked todo is the following.

1. When the stock quantity (Column H) goes below the re-order level (Column K), they want the entire row to change font colour from blue to red. Now I know how i can change the colour of one cell, like ive done in the example, but I'm not sure how to change the entire row colour. If this can be done with conditioning formating then great, but if not then i'm stuck, and relying on your generosity in helping me out.

Copy Date Into Text Box Retaining Date Format

Dec 12, 2007

I've created a group of user forms used for recording jobs and displaying details of jobs and have come up against a problem I think you may be able to help me with.

When the user creates a new record, I've written some code to stamp txtdate text box with the current system date and this information is then copied onto a sheet called Data into a specific column.

This part works fine and as the column is formatted to handle dates it displays fine.

However, when I pull the data back in, it displays the date as the serial number date, not formatted as dd/mm/yy. I've tried every fix I can find to sort this but none of them seem to work.

The code I use to pull the data in is as follows:

ComboBox1.BoundColumn = 11
txtdate.Value = ComboBox1.Value

The idea is that the user selects a job number from combobox1 and then the appropriate column is pulled into each txt box on the form.

At the same time, I'm trying to do the same for the system time as well. Unsurprisingly I have a very similar problem here and use the same code as above. I've tried formatting both date and time txt boxes in the userform, the data transfer code etc etc with no success.

The problem is that when I import in the data, the data in column B&C will be store as text instead of number and the date in column E will store a 2 digit year instead on 4 digit year which cause error to my macro. I have try to preset the column format to number, i even try to change the column format to number when i run the format macro data. But the problem is still there.
