Get Maximum Number From Alpha-Numeric List
Dec 2, 2006
My spreadsheet contains a tasklist. It is generally sorted by priority (number); each row also contains a task ID ("T0100"). When I add a new task I need to know the last used task ID so I can assign the next one.
I've tried various built in functions but each expects numbers.
How can I insert in a cell (or display in a msgbox) the maximum text value?
For example, Given the data below I'd like to have show "T0888".
PRI TASKID
0 T0123
0 T0199
0 T0101
1 T0888
1 T0105

I have a column that's supposed to be an address, but somehow got the
company name mixed in at the beginning:
123 Main Street
One Park Place
Acme Company, Inc. 456 Easy Street
Alpha-Omega Dry Cleaning Four-Twenty Highway One
I can use the formula
=RIGHT(A1,(LEN(A1)-((MIN(SEARCH({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},A1&"0123456789")-1)))))
for stripping the text before an actual number
Acme Company, Inc. 456 Easy Street
to
456 Easy Street
BUT - I'm not sure how to strip before a text representation of a
number (one, two, three, etc)
Alpha-Omega Dry Cleaning Four-Twenty Highway One
to
Four-Twenty Highway One

I have a column that has cells with values as
19352510
C084111X AA
24253081
A001290U AA
19599291
48413321
I want to write an If Statement is a column next to each entry that denotes two options either Broker or Agent. Where the code is say 19352510 then Broker and where it is say C084111X AA then Agent.
Broker codes will never contain a letter. The Agent code will always start and finish with a letter.

In a column I have data like 2W, 2BM, 4W, 6BM, 10W and 15BM. Question is how can I total all W and all BM. Total for W = 2W + 4W+10W = 16W and total for BM = 2BM +6BM +15BM = 23BM.
What formula should I used to get totals

I have an application where there is a column A with values of F1 through
F83. There is data in columns B,C,D,E,F AND G.
From time to time there is an addition in column A, the value being F1A or F2A etc.
The rows then have to be sorted so that F1A follows F1 and the next row would start with F2 rather than F10.

I'm doing a sort of product codes which are of different character length with some numeric and others alpha-numeric.
A small section of the sort is below.
I want it to end up like this:
4040
4040A
4040B
4040BTO
4040C
4040E
40400
40409
41402
42402
42402A
43400
But the sort ends up like this:
4040
40400
40409
4040A
4040B
4040BTO
4040C
4040E
41402
42402
42402A
43400
In other words, I would like product codes where the last character is a letter to be sorted ahead of product codes where the last character is a digit. The way Excel is normally set up, it sorts in just the opposite way.

So what i need is a 6 digit alpha numeric random (1000 entries)
so from some searching i figured that it should be...
=MID(A1,1+INT(RAND()*LEN(A1)),1)&MID(A1,1+INT(RAND ()*LEN(A1)),1)&MID(A1,1+INT(RAND()*LEN(A1)),1)&
MID (A1,1+INT(RAND()*LEN(A1)),1)&MID(A1,1+INT(RAND()*L EN(A1)),1)&MID(A1,1+INT(RAND()*LEN(A1)),1)
[Code]....
but when i fill down it auto it to a2 , then a3 etc... how do i stop that?
I might delete out the o O and 0 cause it gets confusing...
Also, it re-randomizes every time I open the file... is there a way to stop it?

A2 cell data = 11 digits alpha-numeric number.
* begin with either "0" or "1"
I want to the formula to look at the 6th and 6th digit (numeric, alpha-numeric, or Alpha) and compare it with the cells under "'PSCCR Queue - Manager" TAB from C4 thru C7.
Below formula is only looking at the first value when comparing.
=IF(A2="","",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(MID(A2,6,2),'PSCCR Queue - Manager'!$C$4:$C$7,0)),"ITS","Non ITS"))

I've tried searching the forum here, but have not seen anything like my problem as follows:
I would like to convert the numeric value in a cell to a coded alpha
the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,and 0 would be coded as B,L,A,C,K,H,O,R,S,E respectively.
For example, if cell A1, held the value of 5750, the formula in cell A2 would result in KLOE.
The figures in Col A would be no smaller than 3 digits nor larger than 5 digits.

I am trying to create a shift roster for my team. My team work in general shift (GS), second shift (SS), third shift (TS). There are situations where some team members come in any of these shift but had to leave midway due to feeling well, so that should be counted as half day. This half day scenario may be in any case GS/SS/TS. I am using COUNTIF to get the sum of GS/SS/TS for each employee which is giving a whole number. I also want to incorporate 3 different variations of half day as Half Day GS (HG), Half Day SS (HS), Half Day TS (HT). My expectation is that for each Half Day only 0.5 should be added in a appropriate shift, but COUNTIF is always counting this as 1. How I can achieve this using countif or any other Excel function? Sample sheet is attached.

In have a worksheet with about 5,000 rows. In column there is a unique identifier for each row, however the unique identifier can take one of 12 different formats, namely:
L1314LAND00001 through to L1314LAND0XXXX
L1314CUST00001 through to L1314CUST0XXXX
L1314COMM00001 through to L1314COMM0XXXX
M1314LAND00001 through to M1314LAND0XXXX
M1314CUST00001 through to M1314CUST0XXXX
M1314COMM00001 through to M1314COMM0XXXX
N1314LAND00001 through to N1314LAND0XXXX
N1314CUST00001 through to N1314CUST0XXXX
N1314COMM00001 through to N1314COMM0XXXX
S1314LAND00001 through to S1314LAND0XXXX
S1314CUST00001 through to S1314CUST0XXXX
S1314COMM00001 through to S1314COMM0XXXX
These unique identifiers won't always appear in sequentiual order. In Cells B2 to M2, I want to be able to determine what the next entry for each of the twelve variations will be, so for example, if the current highest value in column A for the 'S1314LAND' range S131400421, in cell K2, I would want it to display S1314LAND00422, and if the current highest value in column A for the 'M1314CUST' range M1314CUST0036, I would want cell C2 to display M1314CUST0037, so anyone at a glance can see the next highest unique reference for the relevant set, rather than having to go through the unique identifiers in column A manually to determine the next entry in the series.
I'm not really sure where to start, when there can be more than one aplhanumeric entries ending in the same number, e.g. S1314CUST00500 and M1314LAND00500.

In column A I have alpha-numeric data similar to:
2
A1
3
A20
A186
B4
B13
1
C5
C3
And I need to sort them so that they are like:
1
2
3
A1
A20
A186
B4
B13
C3
C5
With the numbers first, in ascending order. Then the letters, grouped by letter ascending, and the number following them. But I can't have it where it looks at the first number after the letter (A1,A186,A20). It has to look at the WHOLE number and then sort it.

I am trying to figure out a formula that will allow me to compare the
contents of cells within a range and let me know if there is a value that is
not the same as the others. For example:
Columns a,b,c,d,e and f and say "Joe"- this result is acceptable
Columns a,b & c all say "joe" and d,e,&f all say "Mary"- this result is
unacceptable
I want a formula or function that will tell me this wihout me having to
visually scan the data to determine this.

Problem: String is broken into 2 parts within a delimeter.
Goal: To keep each String/Segment intact regardless of Alpha/Numeric.
I have a .csv file with 26 segments (commas). This file contains customer data: PO#, Order#, Carton ID, Address 1, Address 2, Address 3, etc.
I've written code to capture all 26 segments as: Input #1, Seg1, Seg2, ... ,Seg26. The variables work fine until it encounter a string with Numeric first then Alpha within the same segment.
For this example we have a string such as (...,187 Main Street, PO Box 369,...)
Seg4 = Address
Seg5 = PO Box
The Segment Variables in Input #1, get shifted when it encounters the numeric portion of the address...so the result becomes:
Segment4 = 187
Segment5 = Main Street
Segment 6 = PO Box 369.
So on my next loop when ReadLine is executed...all the variables are shifted and I can't focus on the specific segment that I need to do something to it.
It delimits when it encounters Numeric then Alpha within the string, but accepts the entire string into the variable when its Alpha then Numeric within a delimeter.
How I can keep the entire string in tact within each delimeter?

What I am doing is setting up a product ratecard sheet to run with our CRM system in work.
Each product has 10 quantities, with 10 different prices, but each product must have the same product code running down in column A
I have thousands of products to put in to dont want to manually type each code in.
I am ok with Excel, but I can not program in VBA, so i am looking for a formula to use.
The code is ZTRA-00001, which will stay the same for 10 rows, then there will be a space of 1 row and the next code for the next 10 rows in the column would be ZTRA-00002 etc.

Also, is there a way of posting newly added Customer ID in the MsgBox along with MsgBox "One record added to Customers List. New Customer ID is "
All of my attempts to create this are failing and causing errors.Here is my code, Customer ID is TextBox1.

i have the volume of a reservoir in column A for lets say, 2 years, with monthly data (so 24 numbers in my list)
I also have some variables that feed into this list such as rainfall (fixed), and population (i.e water use, which i can manually change)
if i increase the population too much, the volume of the reservoir will at certain times of the year, fall into negative digits.
what i'm looking for, is a cell which works out the maximum value (in whole numbers) for my population, without any of the numbers in the reservoir volume list falling below zero.
