I have two words of differing character lengths separated by a space.

I did copy/paste lots and lots of pages from an online database into excel and the data all has a hidden leading space that is not recognized when i do find and replace or =trim. I am trying to compare this data against other data in excel and all the formulas are "false" unless i remove that space manually

I only want to remove one space at the end of my text within a cell, if there is a space.
Code:
Sub hth()
Dim c As Range
For Each c In Range("H1", Range("H" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
c.Value = Trim(c.Value)
Next c
End Sub

I use a program that can export data into Excel. For the most part, it works fine. except it doesn't correctly handle dates. For some reason, when it pastes a date into excel it includes 8 or 9 (depending if the month is 1 or 2 digits) spaces in front of the date which makes calculations with these dates impossible unless you go into each cell and delete the spaces (or do Find / Replace).
Is there a way I can create a non-VBA formula that will reference any one of these cells and some how identify what the date is & then that cell can be the date I can calc on? I.e., A1 is the date with the spaces in front, B2 is the cell that will reference A1 and produce, as the contents of B2, the date in A1. I can then use B2 in calculations.
Note: the month formats possible are: M/DD/YY (Jan. - Sept.) & MM/DD/YY (Oct. - Dec.). There are no other variations.

I need to clean out unnecessary data from a file, (see attached text file), I'm not sure how to go about this in excel. basically every file starts with 9 cells that needs to be deleted, two cells of real data then one with garbage that needs to be deleted, it goes like that for 40 cells, then again 10 cells of garbage that needs to be deleted, then 40 of real data and goes like that up to 3000 lines, I know it sounds confusing but if you take a look at attached file, at the end I need to have
all cells full of data

How do I remove the white space in charts?
Whenever I draw a pie chart, I see lot of empty space around the pie. When I try reducing the size of the chart, pie also shrinks. I want to be able to reduce the extra white space 'around' the pie in the chart.

I need to delete a leading space from multiple cells, 200 or more. The leading space is in front of text that is often more than one word so I can't just copy into Word and do a find and replace on the spaces.
I looked in many places and found out about the Trim function but when I tried it, it didn't work for me. I created a column next to the column that I want to remove the leading spaces from.
Then I put =TRIM(B2) in the first cell, =TRIM (B3) in the next one, etc. But all it did was put the exact same thing as before (with the leading space still in it) in that column?

I have a spreadsheet that I exported from my accounting software. For some reason there are 4 columns that all begin with an apostrophe and have various lengths of white space before the wording begins.
What kind of formula can I use to get rid of the apostrophe and have the wording be left aligned within the cell with no space before or after it?
The file I am working on is attached. They are columns C, D, E and F.

I have job names that look like this sample:
83369 CMT 2x Harpers cone links
I have a formula that copies just the first five numbers to a cell: =LEFT(B3,5)+0
Result is 83369
Now I need to copy everything BUT the first five numbers to another cell so the result is: CMT 2x Harpers cone links. How do I do that?

After copying certain data into an excel worksheet, all entries in a column begin at 2nd space of each cell which I don't want.
I can manually backspace each entry to the first space of each cell. But I cannot backspace all entries at once even if I try Find then put in a space for find and then in replace leave blank.

I want to remove the front zero(s) from the front and put a space before the last two letters for the following column of data in Excel:
0001MG
0020MG
0100MG
1000MG
Final result will have this format and the data are right aligned.
1 MG
20 MG
100 MG
1000 MG
The numbers can vary (e.g. 0150MG, 0025MG,etc.) but the arrangement is always the same: four figures for the first 4 characters and two letters for the last two characters.
The format of the cells containing the data is: “General”
My table has 7 columns and these data are in the 5th column in a worksheet called “ProductSummary”. The number of rows for the records can vary from 10 to over a couple of hundred.
How can I use VBA to: 1) automatically select the table range in that worksheet and reformat all the data in the 5th column.

I generate a somewhat textual report of my calculations. Dependent upon the variables, some lines of my generated text end up blank. I need a way to automatically condense the report, eliminating all unnecessary blank lines.
For example:
Line1 Line1
Line2 Line2
blank Line4
Line4 Line7
blank intentional blank
blank Line9
Line7
intentional blank
Line9
Example file attached... actual data, but static. In real file, the data is dynamic, so I included two examples.

I have 800+ files the problem is that the file name ends in 80 different combination so I need to try all of those for each file.
eg: one of the 800 is "109 st no 103 av" the file could be called:
"109 st no 103 av nb1_cleaned.xls" or
"109 st no 103 av nb 1_cleaned.xls" or
"109 st no 103 av nb 1._cleaned.xls" or
"109 st no 103 av sb1_cleaned.xls"
.
.
.
.etc
I wrote a code to try all those combinations, the issue lies a space the code adds before _cleaned, how to remove it?.
So the name should be
"109 st no 103 av nb1_cleaned.xls"
but my code is letting it be
109 st no 103 av nb1 _cleaned.xls
Where the variable Ord is the "1" after nb.
Find the code below:

This is a delima I cannot figure out. I had to create passwords for a website we are building. I have 3000 employee numbers has to be used. So what i did was took the first initial and middle initial and last initial and first 5 of the ID number. I did a comma delimiter to obtain all of the letters and numbers. example: ABC12345
My problem is none of the passwords work because when I imported the letters and numbers into the sheet it looks just like the above. However on review I cut and pasted back to notepad and the data looks like this:
"A B C 12345"
So its adding a tab in the password thats thats a problem, How do I remove this extra white space between each comma delimited digit? without having to manually delete it ?

I have a workbook that requires refreshed source data each day. The workbook has all of the macros and formulas that analyze the data. I have the following code to import the worksheet with the raw data (onto a fresh worksheet in the calculation workbook), but I would like to create code that also adds the date and time to the imported data worksheet -- not the date/time the raw data was created; instead, when it was imported into my calculation workbook.
Below is my code for importing the raw data worksheet:

I am working with Microsoft Excel 2003. I am trying to import(or something
like it) from worksheet (A) to worksheet (B). Worksheet A is a spreadsheet
that I have saved to keep the same row names, etc. but the information within
the named cells is forever changing. I also save the information from
worksheet A, but have another copy that when I open, it always opens without
any changed data in it. MY question/problem is that I need to import the
data from A to B, and every time that A changes, I need B to automatically
update the data and continuously add to the spreadsheet I have made up for B.
I can NOT have A overwrite any data that I have already put into B.

I've imported a few thousand lines of data into excel, but some rows have a rogue character or a blank cell in the middle of them taking up a cell and shifting the rest of the row along one cell and putting it out of sync with the columns I want that data in.
Is there a way of remedying this without going through and manually moving a couple of hundred rows along one cell.
I'm not sure I've explained that particularly well, so I'll try and illustrate it with an example.
AAA 1.23 1.23 BBB 1.23 1.23 CCC 1.23 1.23
AAA 1.23 1.23 BBB 1.23 1.23 CCC 1.23 1.23
AAA 1.23 1.23 BBB ------ 1.23 1.23 CCC 1.23 1.23
AAA 1.23 1.23 BBB 1.23 1.23 CCC 1.23 1.23
Ignore the fact that they are all 1.23, I've just used that to make it quicker for me to show. As you can see row 3 has a ------ (representing a rogue character or blank cell) in the 5th column shifting columns 5-9 right one cell.
Now as I said I have a few thousand lines of data like this with maybe 2-3 hundred rows with this problem and I really don't want to manually go through and fix each one.
Is there a tool in excel or a way of using VB to fix this?
Alternatively, is there a way when importing the data to have a number of delimiters rather than the one extra one you can select to remove these on importing?
Maybe it could be fixed by taking any blank cell (or character) and deleting it whilst shifting all cells to the right of it one cell to the left?

to extract a number from an imported cell containing text, a number and date. i need to use this number as part of a formula in another cell and the data needs to be refreshed every hour.
eg. the cell imported is "USD 30.97 (March 27, 2007)" and i need to use 30.97 in another cell.
i've tried using data - text to columns, but i realised that after splitting the cells, the 2nd and 3rd columns can't be refreshed.

I have recently changed my software at my work from Sim-pro to Clik. I have about 4000 customer details that have been exported from Sim-pro to a CSV file but unfortunately some of the addresses are in one cell and need to be split up into 2 or 3 cell so it can be imported into Clik. In the Sim-pro program addresses are entered into one dialogue box e.g Address 1(house name - if applicable), Address 2(street name) & Address 3(suburb/area), after each line you press enter to separate them. The town/city, county and postcode do have their own entry box though and these do import normally into excel.
Unfortunately to import the addresses from the CSV file into Clik the Address parts 1,2 & 3 need to be in their own cells but obviously these are all in one cell(not every address have 3 parts some just use 1 address line which is fine). Can excel recognise the imported information from Sim-pro that is separated by 'enter' in that one cell and move them into another cell? I have tried using text to columns and selecting delimited and entering 'ALT 010' in the 'other' box but that doesn't work.I'm dreading the thought of going through 4000 addresses and cutting and pasting parts of the cells....
