I am using VBA to enter customer information into a Microsoft SQL database. I have an excel sheet with thousands of customers listed. I will be using a While loop to process each line of the sheet. Part of the While loop needs to make any format changes necessary before the data moves over to the DB. So here is the issue:
How do I turn the following phone numbers:
(410) 273-9200
910-944-1232
276 623 4254
410 612 1100 Rob
(413) 786-1636 Cindy
1-800-783-4661
304) 842-5491 Sherry
Into a uniform layout? I would prefer ###-###-####
Each of the numbers above is an example from the list I have. There may be more variations (I have over 20 seperate lists to process, with over 10000 customers per list)
I imagine I need some process that will remove all character except numbers and then break the numbers up to add the hyphens back in at the appropriate places.

I have a bunch of phone numbers that I'm trying to reformat.
Say I wanted to replace any phone number like this: 1##########
With this: ##########
Keeping the numbers intact, just getting rid of the 1 in front of them. Can't figure it out for the life of me.

Just got an answer to my phone number problem of converting two columns of numbers
to a single columns with the form XXX-XXXXXXX. Used =A1 & "-" & B1.
Works perfectly one one spread sheet and not at all in another.
When I enter the formula and hit return, instead of the correct result, all I get is the formula.
The format of the columns is the same on both spread sheets.

I came up with this formula trying to fix phone number but it’s not working properly
FORMULA:
=TEXT(LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(a1, "-", "") & "00##", 10), "###-###-00##")
So basically I need a formula or macro that will fix the phone number for me.
Here is an example
78512312 it should be like this 785-123-0012
Or
785123123 it should be like this 785-123-0123. So if Len is 8 numbers long then insert two zeros counting from right to left. So if Len is 9 numbers long then insert one zeros counting from right to left.

I have thousands of phone numbers that hundreds of them are look like this:
123456-8 that means : 123456,123457,123458 or this
123456-57 that means : 123456,123457
There are not any standard of numbers after dash (-) in my data.
how can I expand them to new "rows"?
bob 123456-8 ->
bob 123456
bob 123457

I have a list of mobile phone numbers from various countries. However, I do not know which country each entry is from. Ideally I would like to have a macro that looks at each number, compares to a global list of PSTN structure to determine which part of the phone number is the country code (generally the first 1-3 digits), and then put the country in a separate column.
I am certain all numbers are formatted correctly, so it is only a matter of finding out which part is the country code and putting a value for the country.

How can I create a vlookup function to automatically retrieve phone numbers off switchboard.com using my current mailing list?
I have a list of more than 4,000 of my customers. I want to ad in phone numbers automatically. I currently have the first and last name in one column. The address, city, state and zip are all each in their own column.
I have never use vlookup before, nor have I ever used excel other than for data entry. What is the easiest and most efficient way to do this?
I searched this site and seen vlookup mentioned for this type of automatic data entry. There may be another way or method I am not aware of.

I am looking for a formula to count the number of valid mobile phone numbers in a list and the number of valid email address in another list, 2 different formulas.
The mobile phone number formula would count the number of indervidual mobile phone numbers in a list that contain 077 and 078 and 079.
The email formula would count the number of indervidual email addresses in a list that contain ...........@..........dot com or .............@............dot co dot uk
Both lists may contain random junk text, like in the email list some one may have entered words like 'no email address' etc.

I have several text boxes on a 'picture' which is the format for a business review. The text boxes are linked to cells behind the picture which picks up company names, cities etc...
Two of the boxes have a phone# and date
The linked cells are formatted correctly but obviously the text boxes, pick up the 'values' not the formats.
is there any way for the textboxes to show the values with the proper format i.e.,
xxx-xxx-xxxx

I've read a lot of tutorials on how to use pivot tables, but found them either too basic, or too advanced, and never finding any example of what I am looking to do.
I have a database, column A holds names, and column B their phone numbers. I'd like to generate a list of unique names and their associated telephone numbers. I figure I can use a pivot table to do this.
But I do not quite understand how to format the pivot table to put the name in one column and the phone number in the next. I will use this pivot table as a vlookup range. I assume I can do this.

I have made this UDF to narrow down results to more suit my selling environment. In the NHS UK there are many job roles but for me I need to know if they are a doctor (GP), nurse (Nurse), Pharmacist (Retail). There is some broadness in the NHS and it's workings but for me I just to know what general category they fit into.
Problem I have is that when I use this my spreadie takes about 10 minutes to update (I can be looking at 15000 records at anyone time). Is there anyway of speeding it up or should I just percivier?
Function PHARbase(cell)
Select Case cell
Case "General Practitioner"
PHARbase = "GP"
Case "CLINICAL ASSISTANT"
PHARbase = "GP"
Case "GP Registrar"

I'm using one spreadsheet "Take Off", to pull data from a cell which dictates an objects shape, based on this shape I have a very large IF statement that pulls data from an adjacent cell where an objects dimensions are entered, the statement than proceeds to use these dimensions to calculate the weight of the object.
I've run into the problem with only 7 IF statements, I have gone online and tried to figure out how to avoid this since it is a common problem, but I can't figure out how to do it, most of the examples show very simple and basic formulas. I am unable to figure out how to translate this into my IF statement where I make reference to many cells as well as us differant formulas within the IF statement.
My latest solution was to breakdown the IF statements and try to my my own functions but I think I am too green to have done this properly. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
The following is the code I'm working with followed by how I tried to remedy the situation:
=If(Or(C21="BPLT",C21="L"),(((Get_Word(D21,"First")+Get_Word(D21,3))/1000)*(Get_Word(D21,"Last")/1000)*(E21/1000)*7850),If(And(C21="PL",L21<4),(Get_Word(D21,"First")/1000*Get_Word(D21,"Last")/1000*E21/1000*7850), If(Or(C21="BP",C21="PL",C21="BAR"),(Get_Word(D21,"First")/1000)*(Get_Word(D21,3)/1000)*(Get_Word(D21,"Last")/1000)*7850, If(And(C21="HSS",L21>4),(Get_Word(D21,"First
I tried to make my own functions:
aCalc: =If(Or( 'Take-Off'!C13="BPLT",'Take-Off'!C13="L"),(((Get_Word('Take-Off'!D13,"First")+Get_Word('Take-Off'!D13,3))/1000)*(Get_Word('Take-Off'!D13,"Last")/1000)*('Take-Off'!E13/1000)*7850),"")
bCalc:
=If(And( 'Take-Off'!C13="HSS",'Take-Off'!L13>4),(Get_Word('Take-Off'!D13,"First")*2+Get_Word('Take-Off'!D13,3)*2)/1000*Get_Word('Take-Off'!D13,"Last")/1000*'Take-Off'!E13/1000*7850,"")
and so on until hCalc, but when I put them together in a cell like this:
=aCalc()+bCalc()+cCalc()+dCalc()+eCalc()....
I get an error #REF.
I realize a problem might be that I'm referencing a specific cell within my formulas, and many examples online show cells referenced in the form =A$1$, is there a differant way for referencing a cell, because currently I rely on Excel to automatically do this by way of relative reference.
ADDED: Ok I scrapped making the functions because I'm not sure and I did some research on VBA so I tried this one:
Function Weight(Shape As String, Amount As Double, Dimension As String, Optional Length As Variant)
If (Shape = "BPLT" Or Shape = "L") Then
If (Amount > 5) Then
Weight = Get_Word(Dimension, "First") / 1000 + Get_Word(Dimension, 3) / 1000 + Get_Word(Dimension, 5) / 1000 * Get_Word(Dimension, "Last") * 7850
Else
Weight = Get_Word(Dimension, "First") / 1000 + Get_Word(Dimension, 3) / 1000 * Get_Word(Dimension, "Last") * 7850
End If
But when I try to put Weight(C6,D6,F6,E6) I run into the error "Sub or Function Not Defined"

I'm pulling phone numbers out of text strings. There is text string ("Office:") indicating that the number following is an office number (the number that I need). MID and FIND take care of this. There are sometimes two instances of office numbers in single text string, so adding a second column using the third argument of FIND lets me start another search past the first instance of an office number. We have a bunch of office numbers with the qualifier "(Text)" after the original "Office" but before the phone number. How do I catch these ones?

What I'm needing is to repeat this over about 300 sheets. 100 if 300 is too many. I got tons of memory and plenty of drive space as far as all that goes.
Column A's cells will go up a row towards the top with each sheet. They're on 491 no, so the next sheet will be 490 and so on. Same with L and W.
C thru F, N thru Q and Y thru AB are the only other columns I need to change each sheet. The rest is the same sheet after sheet.
The information is from two different books this page will have the number 429 and goes down. Columns A,L and W. The other cells that are in C,D,E,F and N,O,P,Q Y,Z,AA,AB will have numbers 240 in all the cells which are in The Numbers book. The net GAME 64 will be 239, then 238

How to streamline calculations that include multiple variables.
I am trying to calculate results against weighted objectives for multiple associates. Here is a very trimmed down version of the table I have currently:
Associate
Role
Function 1 Count
Function 1 Time
Function 1 Learning Curve
Function 2 Count
Function 2 Time
Function 2 Learning Curve
Function 3 Count
Function 3 Time
Function 3 Learning Curve
[Code] .....
There is an acceptable range (floor & ceiling) of performance for each Role/Function/LearningCurve. In the example above, let's say those ranges are as follows:
Rookie/Function1/A = 1-2
Rookie/Function2/C = 4-6
Rookie/Function3/X = 10-15
I currently run a calculation for that associate determining what % of total time was spent on each function. I multiply that by the floor & ceiling of each range, summing the floors & ceilings to produce a weighted range. Then, I compare their production total to that range. I have all this figured out. What I'm running into, though, is that this table is duplicated on a separate worksheet for each month of the year. Beyond that, each member of management maintains their unique workbook listing this information for their associates only. What I would like to do is publish/maintain only one "master" workbook for all associates, regardless of manager.
I tried creating a master table that inserted columns for Month & Manager in front of the columns above. I tried to use a PivotTable (brand new to that process), but I think that because I have certain variables (i.e., Role & LearningCurve) that are "stuck in the midst" of my data, I can't make heads or tails of the PT.
Currently, I have 3 columns per function (Count, Time & LC) as only one LC would exist in a given month for a given function. I figure I can set up the master sheet to have 8 columns per function (account for Count & Time per each of the 4 LC's possible), but that begins to become more cumbersome than what I have already.
In the end, I want to have a table that I can filter by month and/or manager and/or associate to which I can then apply the appropriate calculations. This would allow calculation for a single month or range of months as well as being able to calculate results for an associate regardless of potential reassignment to a different manager, and conversely being able to aggregate results for a given manager using data for whichever associates reported to them each month.

I am trying to create a s/sheet whereby one can calculate how the concentration of an isotope changes (via an exponential decay) with respect to 2 variables:
1. its half-life (arbitrarily shown as 3 'units' in cell E2), and
2. its initial concentration or dose (arbitrarily shown as 100 units) AND subsequent additional exposures (arbitrarily shown as exposure to 50 units every 3 days) (shown in column E).
Thus for example, with an initial dose of 100 units (cell E6), after 3 days, the substance would have decayed by one half-life to 50 units. However, because there was an ADDITIONAL exposure of 50 concentration units on day 3, the EFFECTIVE dose on day 3 = 100 units.
