Grab First Word In Cells

Jun 21, 2008

I would like to automate this process that I'm doing currently through the "Text to Columns" function.

Basically I have various cells that contain many worlds such as:

FRESH LUNETTE SOLEIL REES 1'S
INFOKUS SOLEIL LECTURE LUNETTES 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL ELEORA 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL ELIZABETH 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL JAMES 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL VESPER 1'S
KIDS LUNETTE SOLEIL HOUSTEN 1'S
KIDS LUNETTE SOLEIL MINNIE 1'S

My goal is to separate the first world from the rest of the words in one cell.

Since all of the words are seperated by space, I use the the "Text to Columns" function and separate the words, so that I can get the first word into one column. The rest of the words have to be merged again through "Concatenate".

What I'm looking for is a VBA code or Excel function that can identify the first world (which vary in character lengths) and put it into one column.

Grab Sheet Name From A Cell

Aug 12, 2009

Im looking to have excel grab the sheet name from the cell rather than manually clicking on the sheet each time. I have attached an example. I would like the formula in cells B5:7 and C5:7 to reference A5:7 rather than the specific sheet as seen in cell B5 --> =b!A1. I assume it will look something along the lines of ='(A5)'!A1, but that doesn't seem to work?

Grab Data From One Sheet And Put It Into Another

Nov 6, 2009

I have two documents with very similar information. Some rows are duplicates. However, there is one column of information missing from the 1st spreadsheet. Let's call them Sheet1 and Sheet2.

How do I tell Excel:
In Sheet1, IF A2 matches any field in Sheet 2, column A

Then: copy the data from the same row, in a different column (Sheet1 A3) and put it into a specific corresponding cell (Sheet2 A3)

Basically I'm trying to grab a product ID from sheet2 and put it in the matching cell, for that specific product. I have all teh product IDs in column A in sheet 2. The product IDs field in Sheet 1 is blank. I need to populate it with teh correct information from Sheet 2. But there are many moreproducts in sheet 2 than in sheet 1, so I can't just sort and do a copy paste. It needs to think "if the product exists in sheet 2, grab the info from sheet 2 and put it into sheet 1 for that product id."

VLOOKUP Grab The One That Is Listed First

Sep 11, 2008

I do have one issue I need to work on with a VLOOKUP formula.

I have a list of cities and counties that the VLOOKUP goes and looks at to pull information from.

The problem is that when there is a city and county with the same name (Example: Boulder and Boulder County) VLOOKUP always seems to jsut grab the one that is listed first in the list.

When you use the city name of Boulder, VLOOKUP always retruns the information for Boulder County.

Here is my forumula:

=VLOOKUP(qtProjAddress3,'City Mileage and Tax Rates'!A2:C518,2)
Is there something I can add to this formula that will allow it to return the proper city or county when the names are similar?

Grab Data From All Files With Certain Name In A Folder

Jun 28, 2009

Is it possible to have a spreadsheet that when opened grabs data from every file with "*invoice" in the title in folder 2009 and all its sub directories and puts them into a list in the opened file?

The data needed is to be from sheet1, cells B16, C18, G18 from all the files
and i would like B16 put into A2, C18 into B2 and G18 into C2
Then the next sheets data B16 to A3, C18 B3 and G18 to C3 etc etc until all files with invoice in the title have been added.

B16 is a name
C18 is an address and
G18 is a postcode

This means there can be no duplicates so if opened twice there will only ever be 1 of the same address and postcode.

VBA Grab Active Window Index

Jul 4, 2007

Dim iStartBook As Long, iNewBook As Long
iStartBook = ActiveWindow.Index
ActiveWindow.NewWindow
iNewBook = ActiveWindow.Index
I'm trying to grab the "2" that .NewWindow generates. The above gives 1 both times, despite the obvious 2 in the caption after you run it. So what property works? What does .Index mean here?

Exiting A Range To Grab Additional Data

May 8, 2006

I've set a range as DD14 to G014, then using a For Next Loop asked the program to cycle through each cell in the range. Upon findng a populated cell, it stores several bits of data from that cell (already done) and then move up one cell to record the cell value (time) and again move one cell up to record the date.

Now I did get this to work using a clunky bit of code that used activecell.offset to move the focus up the two columns and a While .... Wend loop - but using a set range and cycling through each cell it does not appear to be possible - or am I wrong?

Set MyRange(1) = Range("D14:ER14")
Set MyRange(2) = Range("D23:GN23")
For MyCounter = 1 To 2
For Each Cell In MyRange(MyCounter)
If Cell.Value = "" Then Goto Skip_Cell
MyCell = Cell.Address
MyPosition = InStr(1, Cell.Value, ",")
If MyPosition = 0 And Len(Cell.Value) >= 3 Then
Tool_Number = Left(Cell.Value, 3).....................

Creating Macro That Can Grab Varying Amounts Of Data And Put Them In New Worksheets

May 1, 2013

I have one worksheet with four columns of data. Column A is a well name, RA-0001, column B is the measured depth of the well from 0 feet to however far down it goes, anywhere from 4000 to 15000 feet, column C is the inclination of the well, column D is the Azimuth.

I have 500 wells from RA-0001 to RA_0500 or so all in this one worksheet, all the wells have varying Measured Depths associated to their well name. I need to create a macro that can separate the wells and either put them in a new worksheet for each well, ie. a worksheet named RA-0001, RA-0002, ..... ect. OR, and this would be nicer, a macro that can actually save all these individual wells as (Formatted Text (Space Delimited)) files with the associated well name.

Here is an example of what it looks like. The columns do not have a subject line to state what information is in each column because I dont need it in that format.

RA-0001
0
0.00
0.00

RA-0001
100
0.91
5.56

[Code] .......

Even just knowing how to create a simple macro that would take all the data from each well so I could manually copy and save them as new files.

Grab Data From Table If Fulfills Two Chained Conditions Without Using Concatenated Key

May 26, 2014

How to grab data from a table providing it fulfills two chained conditions without using a concatenated key. For example:

I have this table and I want to get the combination Name + Color. :

A
B
C

1
John
White

2
John
Red

[Code] ........

The database is something like:

A
B
C
D

1
John
Red
3254.30

[Code] ......

I ended up using VLOOKUP() and a concatenated key like Name&Color but it slow down the sheet significantly as I have many records and also does not seem the most elegan solution. I tryied using OFFSET() nested with MATCH()but couldn't get it. Also tried something with ARRAY FORMULAS but I am not very proficient at them.

May 6, 2008

I am creating a billing sheet that has a column where charges are coded (to determine what they are for) and I want a "Grand Total" for everything followed by a breakdown "Total" for things with the same code. Is there a way to set SUM code to grab all numbers next to codes?? (EX.

Sum Cells That Contain Specific Word

Jan 18, 2014

I am setting up a charity accounts sheet, that will also calculate money raised from Raffles, so each raffle will have a name, I can do this by matching the amount with a description but wondered if I could calculate it by looking for specific words or reference in a cell

Sum all cells that the adjacent cell contains the reference "Raffle 0001" but not "Raffle 0002" this needs to be calculated on another cell

Sum all cells that the adjacent cell contains the reference "Rescue" this cell could contain other text as well, so could say "Rescue for Sweetie by Laura Herarty" or "Rescue for Bliss by Jane Telford" all need to be calculated.

Add A Word Before Every Line In Cells

Nov 27, 2013

I have hundreds of lines with unique tasks in each cell. I wanted to add 'P&C- ' to the front of each task and do not want to go through and add individually as it will take take.

Is there anything that can place in one cell and just drag to the last cell and complete?

E.g.

Current Cell: Task A
What I need: P&C- Task A

I cannot add attachments as my work seems to have a restriction on doing it and always asks for admin password

Text Split For The Name Only In Cells Where Contains The Word Name

Jun 3, 2009

I would like to do a text split for the name only in cells where contains the word "Name". For example: Name A&A Enterprize

Text split function for it is =MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,255)
so it only recognizes A&A Enterprize.

How would I add an IF, Then function (If the any cell contains the word Name, apply the text split function, for cells don't have the word Name, just leave it blank) if i have to do this for a large data file so i dont have to copy this function for every cell that contains the word Name.

Cells (o2, p2, q2,r2,s2,t2) contain text which can include the word "sugar" but will never contain only the word sugar.

In my column B, I have different words like Balance, Notes, Expense, etc. Is there anyway I can look into column B, and if I get the word Expense, then take the number directly to the right of it (from column C) and SUM it? Not sure if it matters, but let's say I want to put it in cell C2. I figure this will allow me to do this like insert, delete rows in the future, but my equation in cell C2 will still add up what I need.
