How Do I Remove " From A Text String

Jan 22, 2009

I am trying to tidy up a stock control program called Autopart (v20).

The problem I have is that suppliers descriptions use the " character instead of the word inch when describing products. This causes issues when reporting or comunicating to Microsoft Purchase Plus Ordering System.

Is there an easy way that I can remove alll of the " characters from the description cells in a text string?

Remove The "Number Stored As Text" Error

Jul 18, 2006

I am using a macro do display actual date, by copy pasting special, so that the day and month is always 2 digits: ie. 01, 02, etc. in case less than 10.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Sheet2"). Range("C4").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=TEXT(TODAY(),""dd"")"
Range("D4").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=TEXT(TODAY(),""mm"")"
Range("E4").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=TEXT(TODAY(),""yyyy"")"
Range("C4:E4").Select
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Range("A4").Select
Sheets("Sheet2").Range("C4:D4").NumberFormat = "00"
End Sub

I paste special so the user does not see this formula. However, there is that annoying notification saying it is a number stored as text. What is the universal way to switch this warning off (or to better write the macro) so this warning will not be on any version of Excel?

Macro To Remove Rows That Contains The Phrase "Off Peak" And "Weekend"

Feb 27, 2009

I have a spreadsheet with about 20,000 lines. (The number of rows fluctuate) I need a macro to remove (delete) rows that contains the phrase "Off Peak" and "Weekend"

I was setting it up in a loop but I don't know how to make the loop end after ALL the "Off Peak" and "Weekend" info is removed.

My macro just does a find then delete the row and then loop to the find again. Is there an easier way and can the "Off Peak" and "Weekend" statements be combined into one search

Do While
Cells.Find(What:=" Off Peak", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.Select
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
Loop

Remove Duplicate Text From A String In A Row Of Cells

Sep 29, 2009

I have a large worksheet and I managed to duplicate data in a row of cells.

MOT 1/F1,
B/P 1f2,
B/P 1f2


In the string above I need to delete all text from the first comma to the end of the string so the above would look like:

MOT 1/F1

This is an example in one cell of many. The text prior to the first comma may or may not repeat and it is the only portion of the text I wish to keep. The first comma is not always in the same place (character count position).

Increment Text Column Reference ("AZ" -> "BA")

Nov 17, 2008

I'm setting up a workbook where users will select a saved workbook from a network drive (using Application.Dialogs(xlDialogOpen).Show); the macro will then open the selected file and pull data from select columns in that workbook and paste it into the summary workbook which holds my code.

The column into which the data will be pasted will vary by source workbook, so I'm using application.inputbox to have the user provide the first column into which data should be pasted for the selected workbook. Each workbook will have data that needs to go into two side-by-side columns, so rather than asking the user to input another alpha column header, I want to just increment the original input to represent the next column, so I can use that in my code.

Since the data is coming in as text, does anyone have an eloquent way to increment it, taking into account the rollover each time the final character is 'Z'? I thought about defining the inputbox variable as a column and using offset, but that isn't an option in the dim/as autocode. This code will primarily be used in Excel2007, but ideally would also work in 2003.

Replace "." With "" Different Effect When Used On Text And Numbers

Jan 12, 2009

I make downloads from SAP and they come in the following format:
#.###,##

This is the number format we usually use in Norway.

The problem is that Excel don't understand that for example 1.234,99 is a number because of the ".". They way to fix this manually is to use Replace "." with "". This translates into the following VBA
Selection.Replace What:=".", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False

Using this macro will make the following changes:
1.234,99 -> 1234,99
4,2 -> 42

The first is exactly what I wanted (text -> number), but an unwanted side effect is that Excel believes that "." is the decimal separator when faced with a number.

An obvious way to solve this would be to convert everything into text first, but the only way I could think of to do this is as follows:

1) Adding a character before or after every number in a new column (number -> text)
2) Replace "." in the new column
3) Delete character (text -> number)
4) Copy back to the original column

"Masking" Out Non Alpha Characters From A String

Jul 20, 2009

I am comparing to columns of data from MS Project using Excel. In one column are the resource names for the project tasks. In addition to the names are the designations for % utilized. So the column's data will look like this:

John Jones[15%],Mary Smith, Fred Arguello[240%].

I want to compare this column with another resource names column which will never have utilization values - only the names.

In order to do that I need to "mask" the non alpha characters out of the first string.

Remove First Part Of String Of Text And Keep The Second Part?

Feb 12, 2014

Is there any way to remove the first part of a string of text in a cell and save the second part?

The first part of the text string is a team code that has a variable number of numbers, capital letters and sometimes spaces. The second part of the text string is a variable number of words in a team name that all start with a capital letter and have lower case letters. Every line has a different team code and team name.

The original spreadsheet also has a column with just team code. Is there a way of using this column to "subtract" the team code from the text string to just leave the team name?
