Formatting Numbers In A String

Apr 7, 2007

is there a way to have the number formatting in Text() variable? For instance, I want to reference a cell that can change between $1.00 and $10,000,000.00.

Let's say that in A3, the number turns out to be $10,000.00.

When I put in text(a3,"$0.00") it spits out $10000.00. But if I go the other route and go text(a3,"$000,000,000) it displays "$000,010,000.00".

Count Certain Numbers In A String Of 12 Numbers

Jun 11, 2008

I have a field that contains the following: 012100002030

I need a formula that will tell me whether or not the string contains a number higher than 2 or whether or not it contains more than one 2.

Examples:

001000002011
111111000022
401110000000

the first loan would not meet the criteria as it contains no number higher than 2 and only contains one 2.
the second loan would meet the criteria as it contains two 2's.
the 3rd loan would meet the criteria as it contains a number higher than 2.

Passing Formatting Through - A String

Jan 28, 2009

I have an excel sheet, in that excel sheet is a command button, once clicked the command button creates a Word document.

Im trying to get my VBA script to bold certain text that will be in the word document. But all my attempts to bold certain cell contents have failed.
Im not getting any errors from the editor, its just not bolding certain text Ive told it too when the word document gets created.

I have included my script below (And Ive tried the following methods already)

1. ActiveCell.Font.Bold & "This Is Function One, This Text Will Appear Bold" & wks.Cells(ActiveCell.Row, 2) & _

2. "This is Function Two, This Text Will Appear Bold" & wks.Cells(ActiveCell.Row, 2).Font.Bold

3. "This is Function Three, This Text Will Appear Bold" & wks.Cells(ActiveCell.Row, 2) & (ActiveCell.Font.Bold) & _

Sub TransferData()
'This macro transfers the data range to a Word Document
'
'Constants:
'docFullName = The full name of an already existing Word document
'

String Comparison With Conditional Formatting?

Jan 16, 2013

I have a column of cells with compound if statements like this:

VB:
=If(And(N10,K10<>""),"X","")

I'm trying to conditionally format this column of cells so that if the cell changes from this formula it'll turn orange. I've tried different variations of the following:

VB:
=N10<>"=IF(AND(N" & ROW() & ",K" & ROW() & "<>""""),""X"","""")"
=mid(N10,1,len(N10))<>"=IF(AND(N" & ROW() & ",K" & ROW() & "<>""""),""X"","""")"
=left(n10,len(n10))<>"=IF(AND(N" & ROW() & ",K" & ROW() & "<>""""),""X"","""")"

Basically, I'm trying to do a string comparison of the formula contained within a cell (N10) to a string that is assembled on-the-fly. If they don't match, then the cell should fill orange. I think I'm most of the way there, but can't quite get it to work. While this is simple to do with VBA, I'm rebuilding a lot of the functionality of this sheet using the functions available through the Excel UI -- users always forget to enable macros and always save copies as xlsx.

Sum Numbers From Text String

May 21, 2014

I am struggling with a problem which involves a column with both the text and nos in that. I want to calculate the following formula.

Total = the Sumproduct of the nos in the description*Length*Width*Height.

In the description column,
1) The nos will be varying i.e x*x or x*x*x or X*x*x*x*.
2) After the nos there will not be any data.

Example table:
Work Description

Length
Width
Height
Total

Parapet wall 2x4x8
12
2
4
6144

[Code] .......

Is there a way to achieve this, what is the formula for this ??

Non-zero Numbers From An Alphanumeric String

Jan 9, 2007

I am looking for formulae to identify the first 20 non-zero numbers from a string of alphanumerical and non alphanumeric characters

EG If column A any data such as:
123
0123
01(2)3
0.123
123abc
0123abc
01(2)3abc
0.123abc
a1b2c3
1a2b3c

Then the corresponding row for column B would return 123

Using help from my maths Prof and some IT bods, i have so-far come up with the array-formula:

=1*MID(A7,MATCH(FALSE,ISERROR(1/MID(A7,ROW(1:100),1)),0),20)

assuming that the total string is not more than 100 characters.

Extracting Certain Numbers From String

Feb 6, 2009

I have not managed to find exactly what I am looking for so far..

I have cells with a mix of numbers and strings and I would like to extract certain numbers only.

I.E.
123a bcd8
acbd 1234e

I would like to only extract the first instance of numbers - so in example 1 - 123 and in example 2 - 1234. I have found various methods of extracting all numbers such as:

Function ExtractNums(r As String) As String
'Creates and returns a reference for a regular expression object
With CreateObject("vbscript.regexp")
'Sets the pattern to be non-digits
.Pattern = "D"
'We want to find all matching non-digits
.Global = True
'Replace all non-digits with an empty string and return this value for the function
ExtractNums = .Replace(r, "")
End With
End Function

Finding Numbers From String

Aug 11, 2009

I am trying to find numbers from a string. I have for example words "EUR Fwd 9x12" and "Eur Fwd 11x15" And i want to write a function that reads the first number from a string if there is only one number before "x" or two numbers if there are 2 numbers. So I have tried to build following function:

Function NumbersInString(Word As String) As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim FirstNumberInString As Integer, SecondNumberInString As Integer
For i = 1 To Len(Word)
If IsNumeric(Mid(Word, i, 1)) Then
FirstNumberInString = Mid(Word, i, 1)
If IsNumeric(Mid(Word, i + 1, 1)) = False Then
Exit Function
Else
SecondNumberInString = Mid(Word, i + 1, 1)
End If
End If

Next
NumbersInString = FirstNumberInString & SecondNumberInString
End Function

Conditional Formatting - Numerical String Ending With Alphabetical Value?

Mar 20, 2013

Dividing Letters And Numbers String

Jan 25, 2009

A given string of some letters (from three to five, six) is followed by a single number (1-4). Then it ends, or is followed by another such combination, up to a maximum of, let's say, four.

Example:
xxxx1
yyy3yyyy1
xyzxx1yxz4xzx1
xxx2xxx2xxx2xxx2

What I would like to do is to divide a given chain of characters into the smallest chains which contain only letters and one number. To the examples given above, I'd like to receive the following sets:

xxxx1
yyy3 and yyyy1
xyzxx1 and yxz4 and xzx1
... and so on

Is it somehow possible to do it with simple functions? Or is VB necessary (which sadly I don't know)?

Finding Numbers In Text String

May 11, 2010

In a data report i have a column which contains a mix of text and may contain an 8 digit number which could start in 0.

for example

in column A i could have "Hello how are you 01237232 I am fine"

I wish to extract the number into a seperate column, and would ordinarilly use a mid or left/ right function, however the text infront and behind the number will vary in length, which means i cannot do this.

The number will always be 8 digits, could start in 0 but will not always, and it may not be present in all the cells in this column.

How I an achieve this?
