Formatting - Delete First Space In Each Cell?
Feb 22, 2014
I need to delete the first space of each cell in a column. These cells are referenced in a formula, and those cells that have a character in the first space of each cell allows the formula to work. However, most of the cells have one space before the characters begin in each cell. When I go to one of those cells and delete the empty space then the formula works for that cell. My problem is I need to reformat hundreds of cells in that column but not all. I would like to be able to highlight those that need the first space deleted and not do this one cell at a time.

I am interested in some sort of macro or formula that will strip all of the characters in a cell that come after that last space. My difficulty lies in that the string isn't a constant character count nor is the string always the same.

I often have to work in Excel-spreadsheets which provide values to me in a rather unpractical way. For some reason, every cell entry starts with a space, followed by the value. It makes it impossible to start calculating with the values right away.
I tried
replace: " " with: ""
But that way all the spaces in the sheet are removed, not just the spaces at the start of each cell. I would like to avoid that, as it makes the descriptions a bit difficult to read...
So, any ideas on how to write a little macro (or a tric in Excel itself) which I can use to quickly get rid of those spaces and start calculating?

I need a macro to delete rows with spaces greater than 20. I don't know how excel define a space so I'm not sure where to start.

I need to create a spreadsheet that has approximately 1000 rows with the same exact information in each of them prefilled (as I use the "drag-down" method). I use this chart throughout the year to enter various bits of data in each row. I also use conditional formatting in each row. The company I work for wants to have an empty space between each row.
"
You can create the blank rows separately and then interleave them with the existing rows by sorting. To start, insert a new column to the left of the existing column A. Enter 1 in cell A1 and highlight column A all the way to the last row that contains data. From the Edit menu select Fill | Series and click on OK. Column A should now contain numbers from 1 to the total number of rows. Press Ctrl-C to copy these cells to the clipboard, click in the cell just below the last of them, and press Ctrl-V to paste. Now highlight the entire data area, including the new rows with just a number in column A. Select Sort from the Data menu and choose the No header row option in the resulting dialog box. Under Sort by select Column A, under Then by select column B, and click on OK. Finally, delete column A. You now have a blank row after every one of the original 1,000-odd rows."
This works great for the data that I copied (with the drag down method) to all the rows. However, this method does not insert an empty line in between all the conditional formatting I have throughout the spreadsheet. This is my conditional formatting formula I have "manage rules" which is under "conditional formatting" =NOT(ISBLANK($A6)) (*please take note that this is selected for 1000 rows.) Maybe there is some kind of change in the formula that I need in order for the conditional formatting method to be copied onto every 2nd line of the 1000 rows".

I have been working on different formulas to return the text string between the first and last space and have been unsuccessful. Is this possible?
I have tried several combos or Left and Right, I have been able to get the values after the first space, and the values before the last space, but not between the spaces.
String: Y60
~C CULT NUCLEUS 3X2 SPRING WST BK XL
Desired results: D60

I have the following formula that works fine until someone uses the space bar to clear a cells contents
=COUNTA($D11:$AI11)
When the space bar is used to clear a cells contents the COUNTA statements includes the space in the count. How do I count the number of cells with content and exclude the space bar space in a cell?

I only want to remove one space at the end of my text within a cell, if there is a space.
Code:
Sub hth()
Dim c As Range
For Each c In Range("H1", Range("H" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
c.Value = Trim(c.Value)
Next c
End Sub

I'm trying to automate the importing and processing of a fairly large formatted text file (~15000 lines) containing many tables of data. I've been refining this process for several months and recently was alerted to a problem. A few of my tables have widths greater than 255 characters (309 to be exact).
My process involves opening the text file in Excel then performing a .Copy on the Worksheet into ThisWorkbook, naming the sheet "Source". I then perform up to 66 separate parse operations on the various tables depending on which options a user selected from a form.
The problem is that I assumed that the Copy Method would simply make a duplicate of that sheet in ThisWorkbook. Instead, it seems to have truncated any columns that are longer than 255 characters, leaving me with partial data in a few tables.
My workaround was to perform a TextToColumns on the text file prior to the import such that it would simply split the data into columns that could be reassembled on the other side. In doing so, I seemed to have stripped a leading <space> from each cell which was apparently put there previously. This is causing a lot of problems for my formatting code which also uses TextToColumns to separate the tables into columns. The simplest solution seems to be trying to add the spaces back in, assuming there isn't a better way to import this data in the first place.
Just prior to copying the sheet into ThisWorkbook, I'm using the following code after the TextToColumns to add the space back in, but it's taking an awfully long time and causing a noticable time delay in processing my code and adding considerable size to the finished workbook it creates. If someone could recommend a better solution, either to the import process or to replace this God-awful loop, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
For i = 1 To 65535
wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,3).Formula = " " & wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,1).Value
wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,4).Formula = " " & wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,2).Value
wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,1).Formula = wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,3).Value
wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,2).Formula = wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,4).Value
Next i
wkbk.Sheets(1).Range("C:D").ClearContents
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Also, I don't know how long the actual file will be, so I'm almost forced to assume 65535...

in my workbook I have a list of names. Some of these names have a blank space at the end of them. How do I get rid of that blank space? Basically, it might say:
John Brown
Fred Basset
Fred Jones
Ian Smith
Ian O'Donnell
Adam Simpson
And if you put your cursor at the end of each of those names, you'll see that some have a blank space at the end, and some don't. How do I trim this blank space away from the end?

I'm trying to insert a 'space' after the second character/number in a cell.
I.e 123456 should become 12 3456
I have tried =LEFT(A1,2)&" " but this just deletes all data after the space. I've also tried =MID(A1,2)&" " but this makes excel very angry.....

I have a cell with entries as follows for example
abcd
efgh
ijkl
i would like to split it over multiple columns. Let me be a little more specific.
my data is arranged as follows in the cell
abcd<space><enter>
efgh<space><enter>
ijlk<space>
I want it as follows in ONE cell as follows
abcd<space>efgh<space>ijkl
OR
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
abcd efgh ijkl
1. "Data -->Text to columns" : doesn't work for some reason, only my first string "abcd" is being read. Please do remember I have more than a thousand entries so manual change on each cell would be difficult.
2. =clean() : removes the spaces making data splitting impossible.
3. =trim() : same as above

Formula to split a cell at the first break/space and to keep the rest of the cell contents together? For example to separate addresses from the street and street name.
Eg.
A1
1111 AAAA BBB
into
B1 C1
111 AAAA BBB
I have tried to use text to columns but as the cell contains three or four words I don't want to have to rejoin cells afterwards.

I have a formula that copies just the first five numbers to a cell: =LEFT(B3,5)+0
Result is 83369
Now I need to copy everything BUT the first five numbers to another cell so the result is: CMT 2x Harpers cone links. How do I do that?
