I have a file with a physician name and title in the cell as follows:
"James A. Jones, M.D."
I need a formula to reverse the last name, drop the title "M.D.", get rid of any additional periods after the middle initial and put it in upper case:
"JONES, JAMES A"
There are some names without middle initials also so this may present an additional problem.

With my limited knowledge I am having trouble constructing formula to break the following info that I receive frequently from my credit card company into 3 columns - Date, Details, Value

I need to be able to take someones name which is in a single cell in the format "First Middle Last" (could be more than one middle name) and then split it up so that it fits the following format:
Last name (must be 50 characters)
Middle name (must be 15 characters)
First Name (must be 15 characters)
I'm unsure on the right combination of operators to use to variably concatenate strings in this way. I'm confident I can figure out how to add the white spaces after a name to make it fit the character requirement but I don't know how to split the initial name up into it's 3 parts. Names longer than the character requirement will just be truncated.
I am looping through and copying screens of mainframe data and appending them to the clipboard. Once done, I start a Notepad and paste it for future massaging. Now I need to perform a check on each screen which requires copying something from the screen, assigning to a variable, and checking it. This overwrites what I've already stored on the clipboard. Is there a way to store what I've got on the clipboard, then use the clipboard for something else, and then reload the clipboard?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe data is arranged as such, there are a list of call types and in another column, there are a list of call lengths. Currently I have a COUNTIF which searches the call type column for certain call types ie BA is off peak but this only tells me how many off peak calls they have made, I need to make it tell me how many minutes of off peak calls there are.
IE this is an example
Call Types Call Lengths (minutes)
BA 1

at the moment my formula would only count this as 4 but I need it to calculate it as 7. This is a very big data set containing around 900 entries per sheet.
I have a macro that loops through a column of text and removes all text after a hyphen. Example: AU9929-PK becomes AU9929. I need to set up some exceptions that when it processes certain text it does not truncate it. Example: AU9929-ASST stays as AU9929-ASST. So far there are twelve exceptions but this could increase.
Note: The list which includes shop number, description, sku, sku description, quantity, unit price and more is sorted in a particular order as other operations are performed on it that requires it be in a specific order.

I am trying to let the user call my subroutine in the following 5 ways but am lost using string manipulation -
Call FindReplaceAll(C, 123, 1.23) In Col C replace 123 with 1.23
Call FindReplaceAll(2, 123, 1.23) In Row 2 replace 123 with 1.23
Call FindReplaceAll(C:E, 123, 1.23) In Col C-E replace 123 with 1.23
Call FindReplaceAll(2:4, 123, 1.23) In Rows 2-4 replace 123 with 1.23
Call FindReplaceAll(C9:E19, 123, 1.23) In region C9-E9 replace 123 with 1.23
Here is what I am trying to do in psudo
Sub FindReplaceAll(sType As String, sFind As String, sReplace As String)
If sType does not have a colon in it then
If sType = A-IV or sType = a-iv only then
Columns(sType &:& sType).Select
If sType = 1-65000 then
Rows(sType &:& sType).Select

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a sizable spreadsheet, which has one column where the cells are mostly numeric strings of up to 6 numbers - there are variations, which I will mention.
What I need to do, is to treat the numbers as individual figures, and add them, then divide by the number of figures. e.g. cell value '123456' I need to process as (1+2+3+4+5+6)/6.
The variations are that '0' has to be added as 10, and any letters need to be added as 12. '-' and '/' which are the only non-alphanumeric values should be ignored.
My pivot table is not auto summing each column properly, and I can't manually enter a formula to do so. I tried adjusting the settings of the rows and columns through the pivot table wizard, but no luck. Is there a way around this limitation?
View 6 Replies View Relatedi have a worksheet called 'week 1' and want to write vba code so that a new sheet called 'week 2' can be created. However i want to write code so that it doesn't matter what sheet i am on, a new sheet would be created with the name week and the next number up. ie. the last worksheet is 'week 7' then the code should be able to create a new worksheet called 'week 8' ect. I currently have this code but it keeps returning an error message. anyone know how i could do this???

I have a program that updates values quarterly when run. The spreadsheet that it works with also contains a couple of pie charts that correspond to the updated data. the charts only have one series with category values. I recorded a macro to see the code excel uses for creating a new chart and tried to modify the statements to my needs but have been running into runtime error 1004 ("Method ' Cells' of Object '_Global' failed"). The code is as follows I don't have any trouble until the last two statements.
Sub Chart_Updater()
Sheets(Chart1var).Select
With ActiveChart
.HasTitle = True
If Chart1var = "COLI VUL 1 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 1 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
& sday & "-" & sday & "-" & Lyear
ElseIf Chart1var = "COLI VUL 2 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 2 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
& sday & "-" & sday & "-" & Lyear
ElseIf Chart1var = "COLI VUL 7 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 7 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
The variables fundtr1, fundtr2, and emptycolvar are public, and are all returning values, so there is no problem there. Also I can't use ranges like "A1:F7" because the range needs to be variable.
I've created a humongous spreadsheet in Excel- 26 million cells and a file size of about 500mb. The result of these calculations is a pattern derived by conditional formatting. I'd like to get the pattern into Photoshop- It would actually simplify image manipulation in Photoshop to lose the cell data, and the underlying formulas are of no use.
The file seems to be too big to save into a PDF file. Is there another way to get the Image into Photoshop?. The other alternative is to reduce the file size by stripping out unnecessary cell data and formulas without losing the pattern.
I have a table which is extracted from a database using 2 tables.
1 Header and 1 details table.
I want to display the latest date in column E.
As Column A,B,C is the header table and column D,E is the details table.
Can this be done in vba or a pivot?
Data manipulation question here: how to dynamically filter and sort a multi-column data set? My end goal is to be able to (1) quickly collapse all columns into one single column, (2) remove all duplicates, and (3) sort the information in ascending order. A reference sheet is attached in case it's useful.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a small table, 6 rows, 2 columns which looks something like:
Apples 3
Pears 1
Bananas 0
Cherries 2
Oranges 1
Grapes 1
The total sum of column B will always be 8.
What I want to produce is a range, say d1:d8 which reproduces the data in a format like:
Apple
Apple
Apple
Pear
Cherry
Cherry
Orange
Grape
i.e. responding to the number of items in the former table specified.
I'm sure it can be done with some long stringed If statements mixed with counts, but do any of you have any good ideas for formulas in d1:d8?
I am trying to find a formula that will count the number of unique entries there. I have tried the solutions posted on various websites to no avail (most recently:
Code:
=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(MATCH(A1:A10,A1:A10,0),MATCH(A1:A10,A1:A10,0))>0,1))
).
The answer should be 4,457.

I have an existing Cash Flow Report that has a column of abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title where each cell contains a unique three lettered/numbered amount of characters (Example: 200). These three abbreviated character cells are specific and relate to their full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title (Example: WBS DWRRI-BW066-200).
In my attached excel model (Find, Locate, and Align WBS Elements to Cash Flow Report.xlsx), I need a formula for the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru B11 that will look at the abbreviated three lettered/numbered (WBS Element) titles in cells C3 thru C11, then search and recognize its unique counterpart contained in the, "SAP WBS Elements Export" sheet and return this full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title to the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru. B11, just to the left of its abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title.

I am working on sales information which includes postcodes. What i need to do is seperate the first or first two text characters from the rest of the postcode. I have attached a small snipet of what i am working on. Currently i am using the =Left(A4,2) but this will give me in some case a numerical value aswell. For example E1 or G1 in the case of the sample attached. Is there a formula that exists where it will just return the text values in a cell and not numerical values.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with several columns. I need a formula to search column D only and each time a specific location is identified to replace that location with alternate text. Example (ORIGNAL TEXT):

I need to search that listing and each time the word BIRD is mentioned have it replaced with FEATHERS and each time DOG is listed have it replaced with TAILS Final result would look like:
FEATHERS

TAILS
BAT

All other text should stay the same and replacement text should appear in the cell of the text it is replacing. This is a sheet used by multiple people several times a day and so the Find/Replace option really won't work.
Have working on this for at least 6 months and it just isn't going to happen for me. I thought I could use a Conditional format, but that is producing no results either.
formula for -- If Text = 1 and Text =-1 adjust running total
example:
1312 (total)

LA1310 (new total)
LB1309 (new total)
LS1310 (new total)
LS =+1
SS, LA, LB =-1
I have a situation where I have to curve fit data, this can lead to different formulas being used with varying constants.
Is it possible to pickup a TEXT based formula and related constants from other cells, and then place this into another cell as a functioning formula. For Example
Cell A1 contains the formula as a text string whether it be y=a+bx+cx^2, or y=a+b/x, etc
Cells A2:A6 contain the individual constants, a, b, c, etc
I would then want the VBA to read the text based formula and put it into an output cell as a functioning excel formulae.g
In cell B10: =a+b*A10+c*A10^2
I understand picking the constants up and putting the formula should not be too much of an issue, however trying to insert the variable form of the curve fit is the part that I am struggling with, and am unsure if possible.
I would like to copy a formula in a cell and then paste only the text of the formula, but I can't figure it out. Basically, I would like to avoid going into the cells and absolute referencing or hitting F2, then copying the text.
When I hit "Ctrl C" to copy the cell, then hit "Alt/E/S/F/Enter" to paste the formula, it is just like a regular copy/paste formula-wise in that the references move.
Is there away to Combine a Text Entree in a Formula with a Formula
