How To Copy / Paste Cell Text (not The Formula)

Sep 24, 2009

I have a drop down list. When I choose something from the list, it creates a description (text) in the next cell. I need to be able to copy/paste the text from the cell, but it will only let me choose the formula instead.

Copy A Formula In A Cell And Then Paste Only The Text Of The Formula

Jul 16, 2007

I would like to copy a formula in a cell and then paste only the text of the formula, but I can't figure it out. Basically, I would like to avoid going into the cells and absolute referencing or hitting F2, then copying the text.

When I hit "Ctrl C" to copy the cell, then hit "Alt/E/S/F/Enter" to paste the formula, it is just like a regular copy/paste formula-wise in that the references move.

Copy & Paste Specific Text From Cell

Aug 29, 2007

I have a cell that contains various data but in the cell there will be a string of characters that will begin with either ON or TN followed by numbers. What I would like to do is have the sheet look at that cell and if there's a TN12345 (or any combination of numbers) or an ON123456 (same idea as the TN) I would like the sheet to pull just the ON or TN number out and paste it in a specific cell. The ON would have it's own cell to be placed in as would the TN.

Here's an example. C5 contains various data, a mix of text and numbers but it will have either an ON or a TN or both. I would like the sheet to automatically pull the TN number out and place it in A5 and the ON in B5. I would like this process to repeat all the way through the sheet to the max amount of rows since I have no way of knowing how many rows I'll need. Can this be done with a simple IF formula or does it have to be done in VBA or is it not possible at all.

Copy Data From Cell In One Worksheet, Add Text, And Paste To Cell In Another Sheet

May 14, 2009

I have the following code in another workbook that is used to populate a cell on the same sheet based on input to cells in column 'A'.

Is it possible to modify this for the attached workbook to select a cell with data (numbers) on the Input Data sheet in column 'E', add text to the beginning, ('CG' in this case), and paste the result to the Import Template in the corresponding cell of column 'A'? I currently have a formula copied to dozens of cells in 'A' but since the number of rows for the Input Template is variable, there are usually cells in 'A' that contain CG but no corresponding data in the rest of the row.

Copy Formula And Paste To Other Cell

Mar 30, 2008

i pull the formula of o21 to o22

o21 has formula =IF(J21>=U21,1,"")
022 has formula =IF(J22>=U22,1,"")

and basically u21 and u22 are "=s20"

so may i know what formula i should use to simplify o21 and o22 so that i do not need to use u21 and u22

i cant use =IF(J21>=U$21,1,"") because if i copy this formula and paste to other cell, it will always refer to U$21...

Macro - Find Text And Copy / Paste Cell Below - Loop In Row

Nov 5, 2013

Let's say sheet - "delivery" - has a row1 that includes all possible delivery days. So A1 is 1.9.2013, B1 is 15.9.2013, C1 is 1.10.2013 and so on.

I want to make a macro, that will gradually go through whole row 3 in sheet "delivery" and look for "A1" date in sheet "Orders". Sheet "orders" have for example in column B the date of delivery, and in column C product of the delivery.

I want the macro to find all deliveries with "A1" date, and paste all products that will be delivered on this day under cell A1 (sheet delivery). then move on to the cell B1 (sheet delivery) - find all orders in sheet orders, that will be delivered on B1 date, and list all products with this delivery date under cell B1 (sheet delivery).

Example:

Sheet order
A
B
C

Date of delivery
Product

1.9.2013
orange

[Code] ........

Unfortunately simple Pivot table is not able to do this simple list.

Indexing Not Working On Copy / Paste Text?

Feb 6, 2014

I copied and pasted text (last names) from Website A into File A. Then did the same from Website B into File B. I wrote index match formulas to compare columns between files. I've done this literally hundreds of times, and it's always worked. This time, however, I get ZERO matches - even though there are lots of them. Troubleshooting was straight-forward: it has to be website B. (Strange thing is, I HAVE used text from website B before in similar applications with no problems.) Something in the way they present the data is preventing matches. (Everything works when I manually type over text from Website B.) It's not an upper case/lower case problem. I tried copy-pasting values only - to no avail.

Copy & Paste Formula

Sep 4, 2008

I have a supply worksheet that is set up where the new data is added into a new column, so that the report extends horizontally. All of the pricing is in Column I, quantities are listed in the new column, and then totals at the bottom with the following formula:

=(SUM(AF7:AF10)*I7)+(AF12*I12)+(AF13*I13)+(SUM(AF15:AF18)*I15)+(SUM(AF20:AF23)*I20)

When I copy and paste the cell, into the next column for a new order, it changes the quantity column from "AF" to "AG", which I want it to do, but it also changes the pricing column from "I" to "J". I then have to go in manually and change all the J's to I's. When I copy the just the formula, it keeps everything the same, and then I have to manually change "AF" to "AG".

Is there a way to copy and paste so that the pricing column stays fixed within the formula, but the quantity column changes?

Create Checklist That Copy / Paste Text To Other Sheet

Jul 16, 2013

I have a workbook that writes what I need to do. When done I need to type in another sheet the exact same text and the date I did it.

I wonder if its possible to add a checkbox and when this checkbox is pressed it will automatically copy/paste the text to the next free cell of the other sheet, so I only need to type date.

Here is the workbook: [URL] .....

Check box would be added in cell A17, A18, etc.

And the text would be copied to sheet Preventive Maintenance Records in the next available cell in column A.

Find Text In Column, Copy Next Row And Paste In New Sheet

Oct 9, 2009

Essentially, I have 2 Sheets:
"SheetWSS" = data to be copied
"SheetWSD" = destination of copied data.

Below is a sample of the data in "SheetWSS"
----------A------------------------B-------------------------C
1------Trade ID -------Description---------System no.
2--------579----------------Loan ---------------------- 7
3--------580----------------Deposit---------------------22
4--------702----------------Deposit--------------------- 11
5--------703----------------Loan ----------------------- 58
6--------732 ---------------Loan------------------------66
7--------733----------------Deposit-------------------- 99
etc...(no more than 10000)

Now, an explanation of the data:

1) I work for a small bank (CORP) that takes deposits and gives loan.

2) CORP books these trades using only system no. 7 and 11; other system nos. belong to customers.

3) When a single trade is booked, the 2 sides of the transaction is recorded (by Trade IDs) . E.g rows 2 and 3 relates to one trade. So if CORP loans money with system no.7 to CUSTB, who uses system no.22, it shows for CORP a loan and for CUSTB, a deposit.

4) Everyday, the data in "SheetWSS" is updated with a different number of rows from previous, but the number of columns remain the same.

So, here's what i'ld like the macro to do:
1) Go into Column C, find system no.7 and 11.
2) For each 7 and 11 found, Copy the next row . So if for e.g, system no.11 was found in C4, i want the ENTIRE ROW 5 to be copied.
3) Paste the entire next row in "SheetWSD" until we have a list of all opposing sides of the same transactions initiated by CORP.

Copy Only Text In Range & Paste To Sheets In Sequence

Oct 4, 2007

I thought I may of been able to get away with just using a simple macro which I could duplicate to copy all the cells in a column between 2 and 251 and

pasting them to another column on another sheet and it only referencing the available text within the first column, but it would appear to be referencing the

blank cells as well, which is creating errors for another function using this column.

So ideally I would like a macro to copy just the text data from a column within the range (F2:F251) on worksheet "Expansion".
All the cells have formulas in them which create a unique text string from other cells on the same sheet.

Not all the cells within the column will be populated with text strings at the same time, but the rows of text will always start at "F2"
and fill down without blank cells between the list of text strings.

The list of text strings will then be copied over to a different worksheet "AG-1" and pasted into column "A" starting at cell "A2".

This function is then repeated 14 more times for (G2:G251) through to (T2:T251) each pasted to different
worksheets "AG-2" through to "AG-15" respectively, in column "A" starting at "A2".

The first column to be found in the process with a blank cell in the starting row of that column, would deem the process complete. Otherwise continue the

process through to column "T".
