Formula To Delete Cell Contents After Use
Feb 28, 2007
I need a formula that would scan a given column for data, get the first available data from the first available cell ( D1 ), perform computation, input result in a different cell ( A1 ) and then delete the contents of D1 and move on the D2 and so on till end of data. So far I have been able to have the result in A1 but could not achieve the deletion of D1 contents. The purpose is to prevent the formula from scanning the data column from D1 again. In this way, the datawould be made available in one column and when the data have been processed the column would be empty and the result would be in another column.

What I need to do is starting at cell E251 of the Cheque Logging Sheet I need the code to check the cell for any contents and if there is nothing in the cell then DELETE THE CONTENTS then move to cell E250 and do the same all the way up to E2
My ACCESS problem is that even if the cells in Column E contain nothing the only way that I can upload the spreadsheet to Access is by deleting the contents of the empty cells. Currently I am doing this manually but I would rather sit back and have VBA do it for me...

Need to search a sheet and find cells that contain the text "Requirement". If found then i want that cell to become blank.
example
so in sheet1,
i have a number of columns and a number of rows
in cell A3 the value is - " there are requirements"
in cell F23, the value is -"the Requirement is"
since both cells have the word requirement, I want these cells to become blank.

Need to search a sheet and find cells that contain the text "."
Want all cells that don't contain a "." (dot) to be erased from the sheet
Example : so in sheet1,
I have a number of columns and a number of rows
in cell A3 the value is - " there are requirements."
in cell F23, the value is -"the Requirement is."
since both cells have "." ( dot) , I want these cells to remain in the sheet, but the rest of the cells should become blank.

I'm trying to write a procedure which will search the contents of Column B of my worksheet for the word "Total". Whenever the word "Total" is found in a cell within Column B, the entire row should be deleted.

I am using conditional formatting to apply a light green color (index number 35).
Is there a macro that can delete the cell contents of the cells with this formatting in col K and L?

I have a spreadsheet with a serial number is row 1 in column A with the rest of Row 1 empty. Column A is empty in Row 2, but has the data associated with the row above in columns B through L of Row 2. Then comes 2 blank rows and the pattern repeats with a new serial number in column A of row 5 and so on. I would like to move the serial number down one row, delete the now empty first row, delete the following 2 empty rows, and then loop to do the same thing again for all 9000 rows of the spreadsheet.

I have merged two workbooks into one. What I need to do at this point is to delete all rows that have a duplicate entry, basically anytime the cell content in one cell matches the cell content in the cell right below or above it, BOTH rows should be deleted. At this point, this is above my VBA skills so I'm asking for help in how to do this. The stripped version of the workbook is attached (only 100 rows) but in reality this is a huge workbook with almost 22,000 rows.
You will notice in the attached workbook, that cell contents for A2 and A3 match. For what I need to do, I need both rows (2 and 3) to be deleted. If you go down a bit, starting in row 89 all the contents in column A are unique so those need to remain.

Recently I have been practising writing my own macros in VBA. I am using Excel 2010.
I have been trying to write a macro to look at two columns in a worksheet (say, columns D and E) and to delete the contents (not the formatting, and I don't want to delete the cell itself) of that cell only if it contains a numerical value (e.g. 1, 2, 256 or any other number). If it finds a cell with letters, then it wouldn't delete the contents of the cell. The cells are currently formatted as "currency" cells.
I have been trying all sorts of things and I just can't get it to work. I can write a macro to clear a range easy enough, but I am stuck on getting it to delete the right stuff. I won't embarrass myself by uploading the code that I have been using..

I want to delete the contents of every cell without deleting any code from my module. The reason I ask is, I'm reading from a text file into excel.
I want to run my code to read text into excel one time through. Then i want to delete all the text, make some alterations to my code, and run the code again. That way each time the worksheet is fresh and clear before i run the code.

I have this forumala.
=RIGHT(A1,MIN(500,LEN(A1)))
I would like to apply this formula to VBA and call to existing macro so that this is applied to all the cells in Col. A. How can I do that? Or, is there a better way to do it?
Buttom line, I'd like to see only the last 500 characters per cells in Col. A after I run the macro.

I have the following columns that return cover period dates.
Start of Cover PeriodEnd of Cover Period01-Nov-0631-Jan-0701-Jul-0831-May-0901-Dec-0930-Jun-1001-Jan-1131-Dec-10
I however need a macro that will delete the cell contents if the "Start of Cover Period" (column AK) date is > than the "End of cover period" (column AL) date.
Thus it must compare ak2 with al2 and if ak2>al2 then clear both cells. if AK2

Using Excell 2000 ...
I have data being retrieved from another sheet
Cell A1 of the Input Sheet, for example might contain the words "This is
a TEST"
Cell A1 of the Output Sheet contains the formula: ='Input Sheet'!$A$1
.... thus displaying whatever the contents is of cell A1 of the Input Sheet.
I want to save the formula results in time ...
I want to convert the cell(s) of the Output Sheet to the results ...
getting rid of the equation(s).
I'm sure I have seen this before, I just cannot remember? ... getting
old!

Using XL07, some of my data looks like this
TY+/*-
PX/*-
TFM/*+
In an adjacent column, I am seeking to display the letters, numbers or symbols that appear before '/'. I would normally solve this little problem with something like =left(A5,2) or some combination of left and len. This method fails when the formula finds a len of 8 when the previous highest len was 7.

I have a formula that looks at a cell on a front sheet, and then returns the contents of that cell as the result if it meets the criteria. So for example this formula would be in Cell A1 on Sheet2 IF(SHEET1!A1,"New",Sheet1!A1,"-")
This formula is always in the same cell (different sheet) as the cell that it is looking at, down 1500 rows. Instead of having the formula named for each cell is there anyway to ask excel to 'look at this cell but on this other sheet'.
e.g IF(Sheet1!"This Cell" etc). That way no matter what cell you put the formula in it is always referencing the correct cell for the formula?

I need to create a formula which will change the contents of the cell to one of 3 options based on the value of another cell
For example if I was using B2 as the cell to reference I need to say IF B2 = 0 then say "Closed", IF B2 = 1 then say "Open" and if its any other value then say "Error".
I'm having some trouble having all 3 if statements nested correctly.
I don't want to do this as a macro just as a formula.

I want to set up a sheet macro that will replace the contents of a cell (when a specific number is typed in) with a specific formula.
For instance, when "43" is typed into any cell within specified columns (say columns C and H), it changes to the following formula: =IF(D47="",43,IF(D47<=3030,408,43))(WHERE D47 WOULD REPRESENT THE CELL ADJACENT TO THE CELL WHERE "43" WAS TYPED.)
IE:
If "43" was typed into cell C1, then it would change to the formula: =IF(D1="",43,IF(D1<=3030,408,43))
If "43" was typed into cell C50, then it would change to the formula: =IF(D50="",43,IF(D50<=3030,408,43))

Here is what I am trying to achieve:
I have a workbook with two tabs, on the first one there is one column and the top of the column(A1) is a dropdown containing the options 'Boy' or 'Girl'.
One the second worksheet I have two named tables (Boy and Girl) - these tables each contain a single column array with 5 names in each (so we have a table of 5 boys names and a table of 5 girls names)
What I want to happen is when a user selects an option from the dropdown in A1 the cell below(A2) is populated randomly with a name from the corresponding list.
I have achieved this initially using the following formula:
=IF(A1="Boy", INDEX(Boy,RandInt(1,10)), INDEX(Girl,RandInt(1,10)))
This works fine, but I will need to expand this for several dropdown options, so my new workbook will have a dropdown of car makes, and each make will have a list of the models associatied with the car make (e.g. Ford: Fiesta, Escort, Mondeo...)
But I do not want to have a ridiculously long nested IF statement for every car Make, so what I want to do is something along the lines of the following:
=INDEX([CONTENTS OF A1],RandInt(1,10))
So I use the text selected from the dropdown in A1 as the TableName in my formula - however, I cannot retrieve that to use in the formula without it coming back as a text with the "" included and my formula errors!

I've got the following sumproduct formula (which seems to work):
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH($B17,Product_Keywords))),--(YEAR(Invoice_Date)=H$3),--(ROUNDUP(MONTH(Invoice_Date)/3,0)=H$4),--(Invoiced_Amount))
B17 is a keyword to be found in the Product_Keywords range
I'd like to modify it so that:
ifthe cell in the range Product_Keywords also includes "," thendivide the sumproduct by the number of commas+1
Presumably I could add --(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(",",Product_Keywords) as one of the conditions,
but how would I keep track of the number of commas in the cell?

I've got a master workbook which reads from a number of other workbooks. The names and file address of the workbooks it reads from are listed in column A - e.g. A1 contains "C:DocsInfoFile1[sheet1.xls]". I've got a forumla that reads the required information from the workbooks and it looks like this:
=('C:DocsInfoFile1[sheet1.xls]Summary'!$B$3)+('C:DocsInfoFile1[sheet2.xls]Summary'!$B$3)
What I need to know is how I can replace the address in this formula with the value in column A. There will be many different sheets to read from and they'll change occasionally so I thought it would be easier to have one cell containing the name of the latest relievent sheets the formulas will link to rather than having to update each formula every time.

I am looking for a code that will search the contents for every row in Column B and count the first four letters, any other letters, which come after the first four letters; I would like the code to delete them. For example. If “Sell now” were in cell B1 it would become "Sell" or if “Vend later” were in cell B2 it would become “Vend”, and so on.

Is there a way using a macro to check each row in Column D and Column F for "0", so that when both columns in the same row have "0" and only when both columns in the same row have "0" the contents "0" in that row of Column D and F will be deleted?

I've been pressing on with my project and figured out that I really do not know the difference between Deleting and Clear contents. I really thought they were the same but am now unsure. I guess I have 2 questions. Which is better to use? what I'm doing is removing old data and importing new data. and which is more efficient for writing code.
Sheets("Bodies"). Range("A2:Z65000").ClearContents
Sheets("bodies").Range("a2:Z65000").Delete

I'm trying to put together functionality which allows the user to remove cell content within a selected row. I've chosen to remove the cell content rather than to delete the whole row because I need to maintain the 'Input Range'.
The code below is the script which I've put together to clear the cell contents.
Code:
Sub DelRow()
Dim msg
Sheets("Input").Protect "password", UserInterFaceOnly:=True
Application.EnableCancelKey = xlDisabled
Application.EnableEvents = False
msg = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this row?", vbYesNo)
[Code] ........
The code works fine if the user selects one row. However, if the user selects mutliple rows, although the text values are removed from all rows, only the 'Interior Color' is removed from the first rather than all and I'm not sure why.
