How To Find Double Quote In Excel
Sep 5, 2013Any escape characters in Excel. I'm trying to do something like this:
=FIND(""",A1)
Any escape characters in Excel. I'm trying to do something like this:
=FIND(""",A1)
I am using Microsoft 2013 and am looking for 4 formulas in order to split 1 cell in to 4 (across same row). Number of characters varies between each instance of """.
I would like the formulas to start in column B-D (data in A)
I am looking at formulas based on specific instances of a quote mark in cell from data in column A
Formula 1 - Return with characters up to and including the 5th instance of """
Formula 2 - Return with characters after 5th """ and up to and including 6th """
Formula 3 - Return with characters after 6th """ and up to and including 7th """
Formula 4 - Return with characters after the 7th instance of """
Example below...
Cell A1
xxyy","aabb","ee,ff,""gghh"hh,"llmm,mmnbijp"oossww"
Desired results
Cell B1 - Formula 1
xxyy","aabb","ee,ff,"
Cell C1 - Formula 2
"gghh"
Cell D1 - Formula 3
hh,"
Cell E1 - Formula 4
mmnbijp"oossww"
In a large range of cells, how I can remove the single quote at the beginning of the contents of each cell? (without single quote they would be formulas). It didn't work using CTRL + L and trying to replace the single quote by blank applying this to the whole range. I am currently using Excel 2003.
Example:
cell a1 contents: '= IF (I17 = "----------", "----------", E17-C17)
cell a2 contents: '= IF (I18 = "----------", "----------", E18-C18)
cell a3 contents: '= IF (I19 = "----------", "----------", E19-C19)
....
etc., etc., etc.
is there a function that will return the specific content of the cell. like for example, i have a cell that contains the word DOG(a1), and on the other one is a sentence like THEDOGBARK(b1)...the function must find the word dog and must put it in another cell(c1).
find (a1) to (b1) and display the word in (c1)...
ex1.
a1 = dog
b1 = thedogbark
c1=dog
ex2.
a1=bark
b1 = thedogbark
c1=bark
ex3.
a1=the
b1 = thedogbark
c1=the
I have two columns in a spreadsheet.
In cell "$D$3" is the word "Period 1".
I want to be able to do the following.
Double click on cell D3, where the word period 1 is.
VBA then looks up that period in column B, and finds the corresponding weeks for period 1 from column A.
I then want VBA to list these weeks next to the period 1 I double clicked, so in column E.
I have attached a spreadsheet as an example.
I have a spreadsheet in which I am trying to track invoices billed according to month in question. For example, I need to find total invoices billed in February for ABC Consulting Company. I have a database in the same spreadsheet that contains all invoices billed for an entire year for all companies. How do I pull invoices for a particular month only, in this case for the month of February? I have attached an example of spreadsheet in question. Included is a tab which indicates desired results.

In Excel 2007 (and 03) if you double clicked in the bottom right corner of a cell, Excel would autofill your formula (or data set) down until the last row of data in your range. Have tried all the settings in 2010 and can't get it to work. All I'm able to do is do a manual copy/paste or highlight all the cells and select fill down.

View 8 Replies View RelatedWhat I require is the macro code to achieve the following:-
Cells A2, B2 and C2 will be completed manually, however, when a new quotation is required the user must enter a new Control Reference Number in cell E2 and then press the Generate button.
Once pressed the Macro behind the button will generate the following :-
(a) Quote number underneath the last one in column 'A'
(b) Change Ref underneath the last one in column 'B' (this was the ref number input above in E2)
(c) today’s date underneath the last one in column 'C'
(d) a blank Quote Tab i.e. labelled the next number in the sequence i.e. Quote 2, Quote 3 etc which should be created copying the Template Tab
N.B. the total number of Quotes in any one work book should be a maximum of 30 so some form of checking would be required.
I need to calculate a quote over 4 years but the first and last years are not full 12 months.
On Row 20 are monthly costs for each year. The start and end date is in Row 3.
I need to find a formula that can calculate ANNUAL TOTAL for the all these year in Row 22 populated automatically, not just manually times the months in each cell.
Here is a sample file.
I have been using Excel for many years but haven't dived much into using VBA. I believe it holds the answer to my question. I have developed a spreadsheet with 10 tabs that is used for billing customers. I'd like to take it a step further and, on a separate tab, have a quote automatically populated and then be able to be printed. I need for the VBA to scan certain areas in each tab to see if data is present or greater that 1. If there is data present, it would need to list the content of 3 cells (description, quantity, and total cost). I know that I can directly link but it needs to be dynamic and only display/show data that is present (as not all cells will be needed for every client).

I work in sales and when under target I need to know how much more i need to sell to hit target. e.g

like i need to quote and sell the next 8 to hit the 50% target.
What can i use on excel putting my current quotes and sales and my target in so it gives me the quotes and sales i need to do?

I upgraded to Excel 2010 from Excel 2000 a couple months ago. In Excel 2010, after double-clicking on values in a pivot table to create a new worksheets, I'm unable to highlight those worksheets and add a column to all of them. I was able to do this in Excel 2000... I can't figure out what's stopping it from happening for the life of me. Am I missing something obvious here?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two spreadsheets, one with master file with original data and one that needs to pull in the original data. My issue is all the data to match off of is in the same column, and a number of other files link to the master file, plus it is used externally, so I cannot alter it, and I would rather not create a mock/copy file. Is there a formula that can look for 2 different items within the same column? Would prefer not to use VBA, but if that's the only option I'll take it. I am using Excel 2003.
Here is an example of the setup - I would need the formula to reference off the two different items/categories in the column, so lookup off the 'St. Louis' and following that, lookup off the produce items.
Way to create order and quote numbers. I'm currently starting an order number with a "O" in front of the order number and a "Q" in front of the quote number but this presents a problem when trying to create the next consecutive number because the number has a letter at the start of it so I can't use the method plus 1. I'd just simply remove the "O" and "Q" from these numbers but I need the numbers to be unique from each other and putting the "O" or "Q" in front was the only thing I could come up with to avoid the numbers ever being identical. I often need to look up these numbers and return the values in that row so the numbers need to be unique from one another.
The information for quotes and orders is saved on separate workbooks but I'd still like the numbers to be unique from one another.
Having a letter at the start of each number or a work around for using the plus 1 method when you do have a letter at the start of the number?

I am trying to create a basic stock quote reader.
I recorded what happens when I use the "from web" tool from the data tab. I then tried to modify it by allowing me to manually (with the inbox) put in the ticker that I want. When I run it, it does nothing. When I manually put in the ticker symbol for the company, it works.
For instance, I I were to replace
"URL;http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/q?s=" & TICKER & "&ql=1", Destination:=Range("$A$1"))
with
"URL;http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/q?s=ATVI&ql=1", Destination:=Range("$A$1"))
It would then work, but I would have to manually change it every time.

I'm importing data and I have several columns to deal with and will never know how many columns/rows are in a sheet.
I have to create a formated file to test our system every other week, I want to create a File Generator using Excel and the replacement values forumla "& A1 &". However the file is in a CSV format containing a lot of quotes and when I attempt to use a line of the file in a formula with "& < Cell> &" excel reports errors, if you accept excels help it strips out the quotes and commas. Anyway around this? having to have a user save the file is CSV format would be to complicated. Sample file attached.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to alert a user that he or she has typed in a text string that begins or ends with an apostrophe ' or begins or ends with a quotation mark " so that they can take corrective action in removing these characters. The reasons for this are superflous to this post but what I thought was a logical answer returns a formula error. Here's the scenario:-
A user enters a string of text in cell A1.
Cell B1 checks if the text, if any, in A1 begins or ends with a ' or a " and if it does, returns an "Error" message
The formula I've tried in B1 is =IF(OR(LEFT(A1,1)="'",LEFT(A1,1)=""",RIGHT(A1,1)="'",RIGHT(A1,1)=""")),"Error","Ok") but Excel will have none of it.
I am a SAS programmer and often use SAS Proc Export to dump data to Excel. Sometimes the data is an Excel formula, e.g.
=hyperlink("#Sheet1!r1c1","click here")
Because the data is text, what get's put in the cell is '=HYPERLINK("#Sheet1!r1c1","click here") (note leading single quote).
I cannot use the replace function to edit them out, so must hand edit each one out -tedious at best.
Trying to build array elements from a list

etc
My thought is in helper column to concatenate the quotes and comma "xxxxx", Then I will copy paste special transpose and should have an array list

"&A2&",
But I need it to return "19909",
Let me show you how my sheet is set up.
Steeves 10 ny
Steeves 15 ny
Steeves 20 nv
Steeves 5 tn
Steeves 10 ca
Keppler 16 tx

Now for this example I need to sum column B if A=Steeves and C=NY.
In this example it would return 25.
