Remove All The Dashes

Jun 14, 2006

Have a column containing data which may have 1-3 dashes locates within
each cell value.
Such as:
125-457A
158-857-1116
124184A-1
125-8745-22D9
458-2145-002-7

Would like to remove all the dashes "unless" the last dash to the right
is followed by a just a single digit. The results would be as follows:

125457A
1588571116
124184A-1
125874522D9
4582145002-7

On the example data, it kept 2 of the dashes in the cell values,
because the were only one digit away from the extreme right, but
removed all others.

Remove Duplicates Leaving Highest Price Remaining

Jul 5, 2008

I have a a spreadsheet for work that has 7,000 lines.

All are french wines. with 7 or 8 columns like Price, Wine, Vintage , etc.

I have situation where I have identical wines from different sources.

What I need to do is keep the one with the highest price and either hide or delete the others.

For instance. I have 10 lines of a wine 2005 Leoville Las Cases. 5 Lines are in regular sized bottles. The other 4 are 1.5 L MAGNUM Sized bottles . Is theres a function or formula that will pick the 1 line with the highest price from each bottle size (and in my spreadheet of 7000 each wine as there are hundreds) and delete the others or hide or some way of sorting them?I just need to remove duplicates and be left with the Item with highest price. If there ends up with 2 or more with same high price can it randomly leave 1 and delete the others?

So basically of all the columns only the following 4 variables would need to used as variables: VIntage, Wine, Bottle Size and Price.

Leaving Cell Blank If Certain Value

Sep 4, 2008

I have a spreadsheet table which shows different things but in particular has a column of data ranging from numbers 1 to 23. I carry forward these numbers to display in a different table, so am simply linking from the second table into the first to bring that data forward (literally using formula =B1, in top cell, =B2 in second cell and so on). That's fine.

However I would like to be able to show a blank for any occurences of numbers 4, 14 and 24.

Is there a formula that I could use to firstly carry forward the data, but to then leave blank if the value is either 4, 14 or 24?

Remove All But One Non-unique Line Of Data, While Leaving Unique Data Alone

Jun 10, 2007

I am "designing" a time- tracking database. The way it works is that each user (there are multiple users) creates a new day, which is mirrored in the sheet name (i.e. if today is 06/09/07 and my name is Newuser, the sheet name is "NewusER 060907"). Each sheet is filled in, calculated based on in-sheet formulas, etc. At the end of said day, the user can " upload" the daily data from multiple days worth of data into another sheet, that the graphing macro draws from.

The one serious problem I'm having is that users can upload the daily time data for the same day multiple times, to no end. I would like to do one of two things. Either:

a. make it such that once data is uploaded it cannot be uploaded again (probably more difficult), or
b. write a loop to pull out the highest data point up the sheet and delete all other rows for that one specific day's . (probably easier)

example:

Data loaded into the sheet before the macro runs:

Row: Date:
1 06/09/07 *
2 06/10/07 *
3 06/11/07 *
4 06/09/07
5 06/10/07
6 06/12/07 *
7 06/13/07 *
8 06/09/07
9 06/11/07
10 06/14/07 *

* The rows with asterisks are the ones that I would like to have pulled to the second set of data (below)

Data in the sheet after the macro runs:

Row: Date:
1 06/09/07
2 06/10/07
3 06/11/07
4 06/12/07
5 06/13/07
6 06/14/07

Because of the constant changing nature of the information within, I would like to to make this dynamic range selection, I would prefer to avoid using Advanced Filters, if possible.

Leaving The Cell Blank But Allowing The Macro To Run

Mar 15, 2007

How can I have my macro run in its cell and still allow the cell to be blank? Say I have a number, 0.99, in the cell and I want to delete it and leave it blank. I can either push "Backspace" or the delete key and it still leaves zeros.

If I push the space bar it stops the macro (which I do not want to happen) and leaves the cell blank because I added a space.

Copy / Paste A Row (without Leaving Empty Row Behind) If Cell Contains A Value

Jul 24, 2014

I have 2 worksheets, one called "Consolidated" and one called "Converted".

I would like to have a spreadsheet where I press the update button and a macro runs that searches for the word "Converted" in column E on the Consolidated spreadsheet (the original). When it finds it, I would like the entire row to be cut and pasted onto the "Converted" worksheet.

I have managed to do this with my current code:

[Code] .....

However when this macro runs, the row left behind on the original sheet is a blank row and I don't want this. I would like it to be continuous spreadsheet, not dotted with random blank rows!

Return Cells That Have Exactly 3 Dashes

May 27, 2009

I have a column of data (column A) with cells that have IDs (alpha-numeric) that contain anywhere between 0 to 5 dashes. Since this column will change weekly, I want to dynamically pull only those cells that contain 3 dashes.

Example:
10648145-3026718-t526363536m
09wcg7-s1s89-wtpxm33-uu6jj0-9y8mv-v1
10658575-2349769-

I would only want to have returned 10648145-3026718-t526363536m since it contains 3 dashes. Do you know of a nifty formula for doing this? I think an array would get me the dynamic piece (so they are not spaced out).

Removing Dashes Deletes Everything After First Dash

Mar 25, 2013

I have entries that look like this - 300-7188258-1

300-8983980-5

I need to remove the dashes. I find and replace all - with nothing. that has worked for YEARS. Seems simple to me.

Today, when I do it, Excel leaves the "300" and removes everything else. I even did a CLEAN function and it still does it.

Format Cells With Dashes Between Alphanumerics

Nov 15, 2006

I'm trying to find a way to have excel 2003 format the data I put in a cell to auto insert dashes every five characters. I'm entering product keys for the software we have on hand, and it would be a little quicker if I could simply have excel auto format the data entered in to include dashes every five characters.

Example:
- I would enter: D5ATT3D28F6F44536489413E2 (This is a fake, non-working product key, I just typed in random numbers a letters.)

-Excel would format it like: D5ATT-3D28F-6F445-36489-413E2

How Do I Get The Dashes To Not Count As A Digit/number?

I have this script that does what i need it to do but one thing, I need the script to count the numbers as digits only and not the dashes in the format.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("I21:I24")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
If (Len(Target) > 11) Or (Len(Target) < 10) Then
MsgBox "Not a valid number of characters, please try again"
Target.Value = vbNullString...................

How To Remove Specific Text Before A Character

May 5, 2014

1) In any cell, I would like to remove "Area#xxxxxxxxx" (where x are random numbers).

Example : "INFO Log - [sys] Area#541185471Character#46545"

2) I would like to remove x characters before a word.

Example : 2013-08-28.txt@INFO

I would need to remove 14 characters before the character "@".

I tried to play with the LEN and RIGHT/LEFT formula but so far, I can't get it to work... The idea is to parse some text and remove the part in red (I was thinking about using SUBSTITUTE).

Remove Specific Text From Only Certain Cells

Feb 9, 2009

I am exporting lots of data from a website and for some reason to do with html i am getting &amp;nbsp; in a few cells in my description column (column C), i think that means "& " in html. this occurs in some cells but not others when i paste it into Excel. I would like to remove these characters.

I know I can do it with crtl H and the replace field blank but I would like a formula so in the future the user will simply have to paste information and then get converted information out (as they will struggle to use excel).

Find And Remove Specific Information From Column

Jun 3, 2009

I have a column 'AE' that contains the html code for ecommerce item descriptions. While importing/exporting back and forth with another program and my spreadsheet, the following was added all throughout the descriptions.

%0d%0a

In some places, it may be three or four times consecutively

%0d%0a%0d%0a%0d%0a%0d%0a

Is there a macro script I could run to simply remove this any time it occurs in this column? It is just showing up as text and I am sure in another program it was representing something other than text, probably a space or hard return. Regardless, I don't need it.

See example below: ....
