Complex Text Formula Formatting

Sep 8, 2008

I am trying to generate a formula for formatting text that will remove all spaces, comma's etc. Examples as follows:

The Bank Job -> the _bank_job_small.gif
Picture This! -> picture_this_small.gif
War Games: The Dead Code -> war_games_the_dead_code_small.gif
Chacun son combat (Never Back Down) -> chacun_son_combat_small.gif

I've figured out a formula that works but it seems overly complex - it uses multiple SUBSTITUTE, SEARCH and REPLACE functions. Is there an easy way to remove a range of symbols i.e. ! : ( ' ?

Formatting Formula And Text In Same Cell

Jun 29, 2006

Is it possible to apply formatting to a formula in a cell when you are combining that formula with text? As an example, I want to format the following as a percentage: ="The result is"&" "&(a2/a1)

Currently, it is returning [e.g.] ...result is 0.5, instead of ...result is 50%

Formatting Date In Excel Formula With Text

Mar 6, 2013

My formulas is

="Start Date: " & VLOOKUP('Project Information'!$C$4,Sheet1!A285:T285,19,0) & "
End Date: " & VLOOKUP('Project Information'!$C$4,Sheet1!A285:T285,20,0)

The results I want are Start Date: MMM-DD-YYYY End Date: MMM-DD-YYYY

What I am getting is: Start Date: 41537.7083333333 End Date: 41537.7083333333

So excel is give me the numeric values of the date instead of the formatted date. I tried to format the cell as date, but as I expected that didn't work because the cell also has text in it.

Formatting Text- Workbook With Numerous Worksheets That Contain Text

Aug 19, 2008

I have a workbook with numerous worksheets that contain text, steps actually. I would like to select all common words and change their formatting to bold. Every time I try however, it formats the entire cell in bold. Is there a way to isolate just the word "click" for instance in all the cells in each worksheet and change the formatting to bold, and leave the other text within the cell normal?

If Text Of Cell In Range Matches Text Of Cell In Column - Match Formatting

Jul 5, 2012

Trying to create a button that, once clicked performs the following task:

Checks whether the text in a cell in the column X2:X40 matches the text in a cell in the Range A2:U14.

If it does, the formatting of the cell in X2:X40 (eg background) must change to match that of the corresponding cell in A2:U14.

Only 1 cell in the range will match 1 cell in the column

For example:
Before click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a clear background

During click:
matches these cells
changes X4 so that it also has a yellow background

After click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a yellow background

Text Formatting

Jan 22, 2009

I have a large list composed of three columns, First name, Last name, and Email address. For the most part names and emails match up perfectly but there are an unknown number of names that do not match their email address. Here’s the hard part, email addresses are in different formats for example:

some are firstname.lastname@somewhere.com but others can be lastname.firstname@somewhere.com or some email addresses are first name initial then full last name with no dot separator @somewhere.com and even turned around like Last name initial then first name. For the most part this is the only four ways the emails are configured but all email addresses have some variation of last and first name in them.

How can I find the number of email addresses that do not match their names?

I warned you that it was hard.

Text Formatting With VBA

Jul 14, 2009

I have text in a cell like this:

MINOR Ø1.2314-1.2414 ([-XX-] "Minor" Ø1.23640 +/-.00500, SF1015-16)

The cell width is 35.71", this causes the text above to wrap. The part I am having trouble with is getting the text to be readable without portions of the text being split, such as:

MINOR Ø1.2314-1.2414 ([-XX-] "Minor" Ø1.23640 +/-.
.00500, SF1015-16)

Ultimately for readability I would like the text to read like this:

MINOR Ø1.2314-1.2414
([-XX-] "Minor" Ø1.23640 +/-.00500, SF1015-16)

Within the same cell.

The second string will always have a " (" at its beginning, a "space" and a "left bracket". Of course the string of text will always vary in length and some times only one character wraps or a majority of characters wrap.

Formatting Cell Text...

Jan 31, 2009

I am using Excel 2007. I want to put into a cell the symbol for the mean of a set of x values ie x-bar or x with a line over it. One way is to go to Word and use the equation builder, then copy it into Excel. However that restricts me to the default equation font, and I would prefer to be able to use my own choice of font. Is there a way to do this within Excel (perhaps by somehow combining two symbols, the x and a raised bar)? Alternatively can I do it within Word, without using the equation builder, and then copy it to Excel?

Using Text Variable For Conditional Formatting

Mar 11, 2014

I'm trying to reverse engineer a spreadsheet (see attached) and apply the data table to my own spreadsheet. The inspiration spreadsheet (attached) utilizes a 2 variable data table and conditional formatting, where the cells are formatted based on their value in relation to a variable called "Gross". So the rules look something like this:

Cell Value Between 0 and Gross-1
Cell Value > Gross
Cell Value = Gross
Cell Value < 0
Graded Color Scale Minimum ="<385000" Maximum =">385000"

I assume the Gross is calculated as 25% * 350,000 = 87,500. The hard coded value of 385000 is actually incorrect, because it's based on a percentage of 10%... but I'll let that slide The resulting formatting of the data table would support the hypothesis that "Gross" = 87,500. However, when I reset the Conditional Formatting to reference another cell with the calculation result of 87,500 it completely throws off the formatting. I'm simply stumped as to how they are using the text "Gross" as a variable. How/where are such variables set so they can be used in conditional formatting?

How to apply the data table logic itself to another spreadsheet.

Conditional Formatting Text To Numbers?

Jun 26, 2013

I'm designing a spreadsheet for our department which tracks a students progress throughout their time at the school. There are 4 levelsStatementSchool Action PlusSchool ActionMonitorIn year 7, they may come into our school at Monitor level, but when they get to year 8 they may have moved to Action Plus. I want to highlight that change on my spreadsheet with conditional formatting if possible so if they go up, the cell will turn red, if they move down the list the cell will turn green.

I've created two columns on an options sheet (which holds all my data validation lists) and assigned a number to each of the levels so i can conditionally format my columns using < and > but I don't know how to write the lookup formula

Extract Interior Text Formatting

May 4, 2007

When you programaticly copy the contents of a cell to a string, you loose all of the interior formatting of the cell. For example, if I have a cell where only part of the text is bold... |something like this sentence here| and I try to move it around programaticly (like store it in a database) I loose the bold font in the middle.

Is there any way to extract the rich text formatting out of a range object?
