Get List Box Value To The Left Of Character And Paste It Into Cell

May 17, 2013

I've created a user form that has a list box populated with a fairly standardized format - a product ID or model number followed by a dash ( - ) then followed by a description. Based on the users selection of an item in the listbox, certain rows will be copied over from another tab in the excel file.

An error occurs when a Model Number list box item is selected but not when a product ID is selected.

The difference between the two are AlphaNumeric vs only numeric.

USBLT15CMB - Product Description 1
1121 - Product Description 2

the code is:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim ID As Long
Dim Row As Long
Dim Cnt As Long

[Code]...

The macro stops on the ID = line

VBA Code To Cut The Last Character Of A Cell And Paste It At The Beginning

Feb 18, 2010

In any cell of a worksheet, the user can input a number followed by either a plus or minus sign. After the - or + key is pressed, the cell has to move the plus or minus to the front of the number, then move down one cell. So input in cell A2 would be 125+, that needs converted to +125 and then moved down to cell A3.

Trim Left And Minus A Character

Jun 29, 2007

Sub TrimSlashesToRight()
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Range("AN2:AN2000")
cell = Left(cell, InStr(cell, "//") -1)
Next
End Sub

I cannot get it to run this, it always crashes on

cell = Left(cell, InStr(cell, "//") -1)

It will work fine like:

cell = Left(cell, InStr(cell, "//") + 0)

but then it leaves the first / in place, i want it to start deleteing before both //.

Using 'left' Function To Take Out Number Upto A Certain Character

Aug 11, 2009

Pretty sure this has been asked but have searched the forum to no avail, but I need to extract the numbers from a value which has a letter on the end.

eg. 1000x I need to get out the 1000
or 2p I need the 2

I have sooooo many values ranging in numbers of digits, so just basic left(A1,2) won't work, I'm sure I've seen a search or find function but don't know how to use them!

VBA - Left 8 Characters Copied So Can Paste Elsewhere?

Apr 29, 2014

I need VBA coding that starts in a cell, moves 5 columns to the left, and then copies the left 8 characters of the string. The Macro should end there, but I'm hoping to be able to then paste those 8 characters elsewhere, say a different programme or web page.

I can move the cell no problem:
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -5).Select

But how to then copy those left 8 characters so it stays in the clipboard at the end of the macro?

The formula needs to be non-cell specific, i.e. I need to use the above selection and NOT a cell name such as A5 etc.

VBA To Paste Cells According To List Of Cell References

Jun 3, 2014

I would like to paste cells from a contiguous range to a non-contiguous range using a list of cell references as the target paste cells. Both the target and the source cells will be on the same sheet. The source cells will contain an INDEX/MATCH formula - the result in each cell is what I wish to copy then paste. I would like to activate the code by assigning the macro to a button.

The source columns look roughly like this:

Title
Index/match result
Cell reference to paste to

Text 1
23
B5

Text 2
Peter
H7

Text 3
Continuous
D11

Text 4
[BLANK]
F7

Text 5
Membrane
J12

.......
.......
.......

Text 57
Yes
K33

The Target columns are all over, as shown by column three above. I would like the code to run though the full list of index match results all the way to the last 'Text 57' - the code can either skip blanks or paste these also, I don't mind. I haven't written the INDEX/MATCH yet so it may return zeros if there is no data to pull.

I attach the full example here. Entry Form EG.xlsx

Sum First Character Of List Of Values

May 13, 2013

I'm looking for a formula that can sum the first character of a list of values together, based on the cagegory.

Example below:

Column A = The category (or name of a person)
Column B = The status, I'm interested in the first character of the status (which is always a number)
Column C = The sum of the status based on the first character of the status for that specific person

James
1.0 Not Started
8

James
1.1 Not Ready
8

[Code] .....

I want to do this without adding another column (i.e. I can get the result adding a column with formula "=value(left(B2,1))", but I don't want to add the extra column)

I'd also prefer to avoid doing this with a macro, as this part of the formula is only a smaller part in a larger formula.

I tried to look for an entry in this forum, but couldn't find one that matches what I need.

How To Validate If Left Cell Value And Left Cell Above Value Are Not Same

Sep 16, 2013

I have a column that is giving unwanted value . dont know the reason as that excel file has been created by some other guy and I just started working on it .

My Question is how to move to 2 cells left(A for example) from from that unwanted value column. and check if
A is equal to cell above it , means B Cell(Row above A but same column).

As my excel file is totally based on Forms, Macros, I am not quite familiar with macros.

Is there any way to put if condition in one cell (column) and drag it all the way down which should work for all the values in these 3 column.

And also if A=B then I want to make that unwanted value cell="".

Changing Selected List Option To Single Character?

Jul 7, 2009

I'm creating an excel spreadsheet that will be sent out to a few users to enter data into. In this spreadsheet, multiple columns contain drop down lists created using the Data Validation tool. The lists are referencing named ranges on a second worksheet.

In these drop down lists are terms that consists of one or two words. What I'm trying to do is when a user goes to select an option from the drop down list, I want the matching one letter code to be entered into the cell instead. For example,
Column AK has drop down list with following options:

Good

Poor

When a user selects one of the options, I want one the following respective letter to appear instead......

Jump To First Entered Character In Data Validation List

This is my data validation formula:

=INDIRECT(VLOOKUP(H104,cat_opt_Table,3,FALSE))

Some of the lists will have up to 200 lines in them and I'd like to find a way to simply to jump to the first letter entered in the data validation cell.

Does the list need to be alphabetized?

Could it be something that is entered into the data validation box? This spreadsheet has data validation in 35 columns.

Search For & Merge List Of Text Files Named In Worksheet And Paste In A Specifc Cell

Aug 20, 2006

I did a search for " import text" and found some promising leads, but not exactly what I was looking for. I have tried running macros and looking at the code but don't know how to pass the file names from the the D47:D147 range to VBA(see below). I saw elsewhere that Excel can be told to create a temporary batch file, and that the batch file with the command "copy text1.txt+text2.txt+text3.txt all.txt" for example could be used to merge the 3 text files into a file called all.txt. I don't however know how specify the path where copy starts, to tell the batch file to look in subdirectories or to pass the file into Excel. I've posted this question yesterday to Yahoo Answers http://tinyurl.com/omers and http://tinyurl.com/rfww9 without much luck.

Below is the macro I would like:I have text files whose names are found in the range D47:D147 although without the appended ".txt" extension. The sheets can only contain one name sometimes, but on average 8 to 10, so in the average case only cells D47:D56 would have entries.The text files are found in the say H:Textfiles directory or subdirectories.I would like Excel to find these files, concatenate them with a row between each file, and paste the results into cell K251.Finally, the text import wizard should be used with a space as a delimiter and the last 3 columns (it's sometimes only 2) of the concatenated file, not imported.

Autofill Formula To The Left (fill To The Left)

Feb 5, 2009

I am having trouble filling a formulae series to the left on one spreadsheet, the fomulae being references to another sheet.

For example, I have two sheets 'Mtce Options' and 'Base Case'. In 'Mtce Options' I have the following formulae

A B C
1='Base Case'!A15='Base Case'!D15='Base Case'!G15

I want to fill to the left, incrementing the column references by a factor of 2 each time, eg. next two should be ='Base Case'!J15 and ='Base Case'!M15.

However, if I autofill to the left by highlighting A1, B1 and C1 or just B1 and C1 all I get is an inappropriate reference such as ='Base Case'!D15 or ='Base Case'!F15, respectively, in D15.

Append All Digits Before Character To All Numbers Between The Same Character

May 18, 2008

I have got a list of numeric abbreviations, for instance 10739011/21/31/41. What it should really display are the numbers 10739011, 10739021, 10739031 and 10739041 (the first six figures stay the same). All the numbers in my list are 8 figures long. I want to change the list from the list seperated by the backward slash to the complete numbers. I have uploaded an example of the list with backward slash between the numbers. Is there a way that Excel can automatically change these numbers to the full numbers?

Because all the numbers are 8 figures long, I thought the first 6 figures of the 1st number can be copied and those 6 figures pasted before the other two figures after the backslash. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;sorry, pressed OK too quickly. The problem is that there are sometimes 4 numbers in the cell, sometimes 6 and once three. I would like Excel to complete all the numbers in the cell and then move on to the cell underneath it and so on. Also, I would like each number to have it's own cell.
