Formatting Text- Workbook With Numerous Worksheets That Contain Text

Aug 19, 2008

I have a workbook with numerous worksheets that contain text, steps actually. I would like to select all common words and change their formatting to bold. Every time I try however, it formats the entire cell in bold. Is there a way to isolate just the word "click" for instance in all the cells in each worksheet and change the formatting to bold, and leave the other text within the cell normal?

Formula In The Name Define In Workbook That Refers To Another Workbook

Jul 26, 2009

I have a formula in the Name Define part of excel in workbook that refers to another workbook. =IF(COUNTIF([DaysWorking.xls]Sunday!$A:$A,'2009'!I1)>0,1,"")

The DaysWorking.xls workbook is a data workbook, users may change the data and after they are done, they may exit the program but not save it. The DaysWorking.xls workbook should always revert back to the original form. I've put a read only property on it, but the problem lies when the user saves the file under Save/As function. Excel then updates the link to whatever the user saves the file as. Is there a way to make sure that the formula never get's changed?

Find And Replace Formula For Locating Short Text Within Larger Text?

Jan 7, 2014

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.

Text Formula? Postcodes: Seperate The First Or First Two Text Characters From The Rest Of The Postcode

Feb 16, 2007

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.

Formula To Find Specific Text And Replace With Alternate Text?

Mar 4, 2014

I 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):

Column Dtext to text help.xlsx
BIRD
FISH
DOG
BAT
BUG

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
FISH
TAILS
BAT
BUG

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.

VBA To Read Text Formula And Related Constants And Insert As Formula Into Cell

Jul 30, 2014

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.

Copy A Formula In A Cell And Then Paste Only The Text Of The Formula

Jul 16, 2007

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.

Save Workbook As Cell Text

Jan 15, 2009

Have read a few codes that allow you to automatically save a workbook using the value of a cell as the name of the file.

BUT, I can not find the code to save it if the cell is a date.

The 17/01/2009 wont save due to the forward slash.

Is there anyway within code that I can save the workbook by first removing the slashes?

Save Each Worksheet In Workbook As Text

Nov 21, 2007

I have a file consisting of many sheets. I need a macro that saves the file as a normal excel file, that is just a normal save as function. This I have. But then I also want the macro to save one of the sheets as a .txt file. This is what I got from reading this outstanding forum. But this saves all my sheets as seperate .txt files

Sub wsToText()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
Sheets(ws. Name).Select
Sheets(ws.Name).Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"C:Documents and Settings1kitvelDesktop" & ws.Name & ".txt", _
FileFormat:=xlText, CreateBackup:=False
ActiveWorkbook.Close
ThisWorkbook.Activate

VBA - If Cell Contains Text Within Array In Different Workbook / Assign Value

Oct 20, 2012

I have a worksheet (WORK1) that contains two columns of values that I can add to or change if necessary. The first column would be a text string (STRING), the second column would be its category (CATEGORY).

Example:
STRING CATEGORY
Chevron Gas
Exxon Gas
Vons Groceries
McDonalds Hamburger

In a separate workbook (WORK2), I have a column (A) which contains text. Ex:

A1 = "Station 2134 Chevron Motor"
A2 = "ExxonOil 234"
A3 = "Vons store"
A4 = "Hamburger McDonalds"

I would like to assign B1, B2, and so on... a CATEGORY if it contains STRING.

For this example, B1, B2, and so on... would be assigned the values.

B1 = "Gas"
B2 = "Gas"
B3 = "Groceries"
B4 = "Hamburger"

Converting Linked Workbook Data To Text?

Copying Certain Rows Into Another Workbook Only If Certain Text Is Present

Mar 7, 2013

I want to transfer certain data from one workbook to another. The problem is that I want to copy certain rows from my main workbook which has 3026 rows to a smaller workbook which has 1545 rows, both workbooks have the same product numbers in column A - except my smaller workbook has 1481 products omitted

These are the first 3 rows in both sheets:

Main Workbook
ABA19
Dar ABACUS Spare Glass Dropper For ABA4750/5050/5250
ABACUS Spare Glass Dropper For ABA4750/5050/5250

ABA191
Dar ABACUS Spare String Accessory For ABA5240
ABACUS Spare String Accessory For ABA5240

ABA4750
Dar ABACUS 800mm G9 Square Flush Polished Chrome
ABACUS 800mm G9 Square Flush Polished Chrome

Second Workbook
ABA4750
ABA5050
ABA5240

As you can see both 'ABA19' and 'ABA191' are not included in my second workbook but 'ABA4750' is, therefore I want to only copy the row of data for that product in my main workbook to my second workbook.
