This is the text:
Take 5 PPE Swabs per Area, Both Shifts. Test various equipment - hands, aprons, sleeves, hats, etc.
What I need is for "Take 5 PPE Swabs per Area, Both Shifts." to be bold and highlighted in gray, but none of the other text. Conditional formatting highlights the entire cell, which won't work.
I have an excel spread sheet & I wish to highlight any cell that contains any of the following characters with in a string of text.
/ : * " < > ? |
E.g. a cell in the spread sheet containing the text "Is this a Question?" would be highlighted.
I have tried to use - 'Format only cells that contain' > Specific Text > Containing > for each of the characters and this does not work.
When I do this any cell containing any text is highlighted.
In addition there is formatting on any cell > 60 characters which turns the cell red and this works fine.
What would happen if (when I get the problem above resolved), a cell is > than 60 characters & contains a character listed above?
Does 1 formatting take precedent over another?
(Not critical to know the answer to the additional question, just curious - as long as it is highlighted one colour or another then no problem.)
I'm trying to find vehicle make and model in a cell containing a lot of text and then display that in the formula cell. For example if A1 is a paragraph that contains somewhere within it "Ford" & "Ranger". I want B1 to display "Ford" and C1 to display "Ranger". I have a list of vehicles makes (column A) and models (column B) on a seperate sheet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a 14 column report with a dynamic range of rows. In Column A, there will only be one cell that contains the text "Added Sections:".
I need to highlight, 10 whole rows up to the 14th column, after the cell that contains "Added Sections:".
I'm having a 6000+ records, (contacts DB) exported in Excel 2003 format from MS Outlook.
Except the "First" and "LastName", all other contact elements are in the field "Notes" (which is the BZ column according to the exported outlook layout) multiplied by 6469 (records in total)
Useful information are included !!!
I'll give an example of a record...
Column: BZ, Row: 543 says --> "2110000000-6989000000, 1TOK_TER:17-11-010(25 DAYS LESS),
KATERINA 25 (MANTAS KALNNNNN_HYPERTENSION)1000-150, W:95_105, , HR THE 16wks_US NEFRON OK,
NT OK_B EPIP OK(GOLF BALL)_KAMPILI ORIAKI(DIAITA)_DOPPLER OK, O+,TEST OK(TOX_), , , , , , "
Now, I want every time to take the part of the text says "TER:something..." (part of which is date, but not every time with the known format dd-mm-yyyy, as you see here is yyy, followed by something else, with parenthesis here and maybe more data) and copy it in a new cell..., e.g:CO Column, same Row...
Above and every field which by the way is formatted as General (and it is text mainly) are made by merging older excel fields where data laid here and there, that's why you see the commas...with the method of a module with the following code:
Function MyMerge(Rng As Range)
For Each Cell In Rng
Temp = Temp & Cell.Value & ", "
Next Cell
Temp = Mid(Temp, 1, Len(Temp) - 2)
MyMerge = Temp
End Function
Note1:Records with the above string (TER:dd-mm-yyy) are 771 from 6469.
Note2: As an alternative solution I can see an extraction of the TER:dd-mm-yyy string and the copy in a new place, like the:CO Column, same Row...
So I have a column that will have the same text in all of the cells contained within it except for one cell. Is there a formula that I can use that will automatically find and transpose the text of the one cell that is unique out of the column? I was thinking of an IF function, but the column could be up to 60 cells in length.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have attached a file which shows some cells which start with "p" and then a number and some have the same but with the word " total" in them.
I would like to run a formula in the column next to it which will highlight which cells have that word in order that I can data sort a large file and delete the totals.
I think it will be an IF formula on cells that contain criteria.
I have a spreadsheet where if Cell A2 says "Deposit", Rows A2-E2 would be formatted with a Blue background.
I've tried conditional formatting, but I can't built it into a Macro (I can't make it run), and it only highlights the cell that has that value. I also tried having the spreadsheet filter down to only the values I want highlighted, then highlighting all cells and un-filtering the column- this didn't work either.
It would basically say :
If (any cell in Row A) has text = "Deposit" (it needs to be exact, it can't be "containing"), set cell with the word "Deposit" and 4 cells to the right as Blue (I'm not picky about the color).
I have created a drop down box that allows me to choose multiple different Text Options. Example: Cell B4 has dropdown that lets me choose the Text Options, "House", "Car" and "Truck".
Next, I have 5 or so other columns underneath with their own text. What I want to do is have different cells highlight themselves depending on what is in Cell B4.
Example, if "House" is selected in B4, I want cells B7 and B9 to highlight. If "Car" is selected, I want cells B7, B8, and B10 to highlight. If "Truck" is highlighted, I want cells B9-B11 to highlight. Is this possible to do? I've tried using If/Then statements, but those don't seem to work for this type of thing.
I would like to know the formula to highlight the color of text in particular cell if the value of the particular cell ( value is text ) is so and so.
For Ex: If the J6 is "Vacation" then the J1 text should be in red color.
I want to create 3 command buttons (active X) on a worksheet to toggle between showing rows which only contain the below text in column L (range L9:L30) and showing all rows containg the options (However, I also have some blank rows in this range and i always want them to remain hidden.)
My text options are:
High ‚
Medium ՠҪ
Low ’á
The text arrives in the cells via a VLOOKUP
Is the chinese text a problem? i can't type it into VB.
I've been using the following macro to hide and unhide rows with a command button in the same sheet:

Sub Toggle_Hide_Unhide()

Dim TakeAction As Boolean
If ActiveSheet.CommandButton1.Caption = "Hide" Then
TakeAction = True
ActiveSheet.CommandButton1.Caption = "UnHide"
Else
TakeAction = False
ActiveSheet.CommandButton1.Caption = "Hide"
End If
For Each rngCell In ActiveSheet.Range("I9:I30")
With rngCell
If .Value = 2 Then .EntireRow.Hidden = TakeAction
End With
Next rngCell

I am trying to pull titles out of a text string but its quite difficult because of how the data was originally inputted. I need titles that appear in the following different formats
" title"
title/
title"
These titles were not inputted consistently and it could show up in the middle or at the beginning. I have attached a sample of the data that i am working with and a sample formula that i was trying to use to obtain my information. The formula that i have is a nested formula of find and mid formula that searches for the text within " ".
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.
Table 1:
I like to go to Berlin.
You like to move to Amsterdam.
They want to see Chicago.
When will the reach San Francisco.
Table 2:
Amsterdam
Chicago
San Francisco
Berlin
What I want to do:
I want my function to see if the text in Table 1 contains a value in Table 2, and if yes, output that value.
Desired Result:
Row A1:
I like to go to Berlin.
Row A2:
Berlin
Row B1:
You like to move to Amsterdam.
Row B2:
Amsterdam
I am trying to find a solution for highlighting cells in a column that are repeats, ie. >3. I also need these cells to only be highlighted if the adjacent cell in the next column contains specific text. I have tried using conditional formatting with a countifs formula to no avail.

Is it possible for a formula to copy all text after a specific value, to another cell. In this case, after a question mark.
I ask because i've been given 2000+ quiz questions with both question and answer in the 1 cell.
Does anyone know of a formula that will automatically copy a specific range of digits in a cell.
Example. I have a cell that contains 1125566348 98. Is there a function in that can copy the first 10 digits?

I am trying to use VBA to populate the first blank cell in row 6 with the word "Short"
I keep getting sub or function not defined and I am sure its because I am trying to Frankenstein some code together to get it to work. So far everything works as I need but this last step.
I was wondering if someone might be able to assist me with using VB to insert a new row below a cell containing specific text.
For example:
- All of my data is in column A
-I want to scan all of column A, and if there is a cell that contains "ACHCAMERIGROUP M", then I want a blank row inserted below it. If column A does NOT contain that text....do nothing.
I need A VBA that will delete a cell if it contains a specific text string
