I want to extract text from RIGHT till the word "by"
So the result must be:

I am trying to categorize a list of words based on the first letter.
For example:
[Code] ......
I want to see if the letter 'D' in 'Data' occurs in a range from A-G, if so display "A-G" in cell B, else if the first letter occurs from H-M, display H-N in cell B else if the first letter occurs from N-R, display N-R in cell B else display S-Z in cell B.
I paste new data into a sheet of a monthly report I prepare. For this sheet, the # of data rows change (and is unpredictable) every month. I need the value inside a specific cell that dynamcially moves up and down based on the # of rows for that month (because it's below the rows of data).
So I made a formula to identify the exact cell # every month.
Example:
This month the exact cell is F255 in the "Refi" sheet.
So my formula in the "Summary" sheet cell A1 first finds the cell row # only (255) and since it's always column F, in B1 I have
VB: ="F" & (A1)
This outputs "F255" in B1, successfully identifying the target cell.
Now how do I write a formula in C1 to grab the value from whatever cell is named in B1. (For this month, the value in cell F255 from the "Refi" sheet)
Scott Feldman (hou) - throws R vs. ari - 8:10 PM ET - Minute Maid Park RotoGuru ESPN MLB Yahoo BB-Ref FanGraphs
What formula would I need in cell B1 to return "Minute Maid Park" But if possible don't return anything after that text starting with the word RotoGuru?
Best way it looks like is to find the 3rd " - " and take whats to the right of that?
Here is the situation A B Name + Work placeName joe blo gg@xyzplcjoe blo gg Not assigned#VALUE!in Cell B3 Instead of it returning error. I need if there is no "@" then I want it to retuen as whatever value there is in Cell A3. * Also at the same time I would like return value withoutspace
Need a formula to extract text from first column of data (column c in attached sheet) and result should look like below (or column E in sheet attached):
How do you extract text from the formula itself and not the value in the cell using a formula. If A1 value is Tuesday and the formula is =zmy documentsproject listTuesday. I want to extract text from =zmy documents....

I need to extract the data within the brackets allowing for additional spaces for use in a second query which will search for each individual line item in turn.
For some reason the query does not like searching for the raw data in it's current format so I'm trying to extract the key information for searching instead.
I can do it in excel by:
(Assuming data is in cell V36)
'in colum x =FIND("(",V36)
'in column y =FIND(")",V36)
'in column z =MID(V36,X36+1,Y36-(X36+2))
in column aa =IF(LEFT(Z36,1)=" ", MID(Z36,2,20),Z36)
I have tried doing this cleverly in VBA and failed and then ended up trying to enter this code in the cells within the VBA code and do it that way but I'm having difficulty in doing this also.
I have a list of headings and items and I have a set of formulas that work out depending on the heading what items are listed.
Say theres 10 items and the heading starts at C4 and that heading has 10 items, so it puts "C5" as text in G1 and "C15" as text in G2 so i now know my cell range of items
How can i use the text in those cells to put in a formula to call that as a range?
If I use the indirect formula it shows me the value of the cell, but im after using it to reference the cell
I have the following issue. I have a list of strings. Each string contains certain characters that are exactly the same for all strings, some characters are different making the string longer (in some cases). What I need to do is extract some combination of characters from each string. The strings look like this:
AB & CDE & FG & I mmmm yyyy.HIJK AB & CDE & FG & II mmmm yyyy.HIJK
The part "AB & CDE & FG & " (incl. spaces) is the same for each string. The next part contains a roman count from I to VII, causing the length of each string to vary. The "mmmm" part contains the current month spelled in full e.g. December. This part differs as well, for each string. The "yyyy" part contains the year in four digits, e.g. 2007. The part after the dot is the same for each string again.
What I need to do: - is to extract the month and assign it to a new string - extract the year and assign it to a new string - extract the roman number, translate it to a normal number (II -> 2) and assign to a string (or integer).
I am creating a excel calculator to quick and easy calculate CBM (cubic metres) for a total number of cartons and pallets loaded into a container. The value of 1 carton or 1 pallet will be different depending on which type of packaging/pallet it is.
I have created drop down menues in order to choose the correct packaging / pallet. But I am stuck on on to create the formula.
If I for example choose "LANDFROZEN 7KG CARTONS" from the drop down menu, I need the formula to collect the value in cell E18 If I for exampel choose "LANDFROZEN 10 KG CARTONS" from the drop dwon menu, I need the formula to collect the value in cell E25 .... and so on.
I have tried to use several functions, but none is working the way I want them to :-)
I have a column of cells over 2000 rows that have a bunch of text in each cell. In the middle of this text in each cell are websites (not hyperlinked). I was wondering if someone wrote a macro or formula to extract URLs located in a bunch of text? I can parse this out but doing some delimiting but that will take longer.
I need a formulla which will extract the data from one cell into three different cells, I have three diffterent syntax added at the end of the text, for example I have below text in cell A2, I need to have Office installed on 69 PC s Below are the IP addresses 10.109.69.245 10.109.68.109 10.109.69.416 10.109.69.213 10.109.68.62 10.109.68.97 10.109.69.124 10.109.68.96 10.109.69.116 10.109.68.34 10.109.69.171 10.109.68.57 10.109.68.91 10.109.69.249 {MS Office Issue} ~Excel~ *Client Not Reachable*
{MS Office Issue} ~Excel~ *Client Not Reachable* are the three syntax that are there in the text, want need is, in cell B2 it should show "MS Office Issue", in cell C2 it should show "Excel" and in cell D2 it should show "Client Not Reachable" (without the quotes)
This is very similar to my previous post, which was solved. Now that I've extract the numbers, I need to extract the text for the specific work activities, for example 13Z or 9GGG. I'm assuming some variation on this formula:
How can i extract text and number from a cell .For example I have a series of data like 453x, 45y in Column "A". I want text in column "B" and numbers in "C" column. The cell has variable data with diffrent length.
I have an extract from a call logging system; one of the columns is a description of the call (this column is extracted in Text format). Within some of the descriptions is a reference number which I need to extract (sadly this number isn't kept in its own field) - is there any way to determine whether a cell has numbers in it, and if so is there a way to pull them out into a seperate column? (preferably using a formula as I'm no good at VBA!)
I have a worksheet with over 10,000 records. The column that lists where a person is willing to relocate can have up to 60 city/state entries in one cell.
Here is an example of what appears in one cell - this is exactly how it appears:
ASAI Los Angeles (XX , CA DFO Pacific (XX ONLY), CA DFO Pacific Area Analyst Laguna Niguel (XX ONLY), CA SAI Los Angeles (XX ONLY), CA Ldr Los Angeles El Segundo POD (XX ONLY), CA Ldr Los Angeles Long Beach POD (XX ONLY), CA Ldr Los Angeles POD (XX ONLY), CA Senior Ldr (XXXX) Washington (XX ONLY), DC
What I need to do is be able to sort on city and state, so I wanted to be able to extract and separate the city and state. I tried using a find/replace (CTRL J) to enter a semicolon between each entry and thought I could do text to columns to separate, but that doesn't work.
How I could extract this information? Notice that the first entry is missing ) - that is throughout the records.
Usually I use data connections (using http://www.....) to pull several worksheets(tables) from another spreadsheet. Currently I had a set of worksheets that created in an unstructured manner, the tables are not entered from Row 1 (see attached mockup). Besides using VBA programming, if there a simple way to connect and extract these tables to a fresh spreadsheet for computation. So the users can continue to perform data-entry and this consolidated spreadsheet will refresh whenever open for reporting and visualisation.
