Excel 2003 :: Find And Replace Missing The Ability To Replace Values?

Feb 5, 2009

This problem has come up fairly frequently lately, and I'm not sure how to fix it, or if this is by design...but in Excel 2003 I can't seem to do a "Find and Replace" based on the value of a cell. I can do a find, based on cell value, but the moment I change to the replace tab, the "values" and "comments" are missing from the "look in" dropdown.

I've only noticed this when I'm trying to replace on a filtered list, so I'm not sure if that is part of the issue.

Perhaps an alternative way of arriving at the same goal. Basically I have a worksheet with a number of filtered columns. They are filtered just right, using custom filtering, and so I do not want to undo the filters. In some columns I have formulas that are returning #VALUE! errors. I'd like to replace all of these cells with NA.

Search And Replace: Loop To Look Up Xxx And Replace It With The Values Consecutively In Row C

Jun 15, 2006

I have values in row A and I have values in row C. I want to create a loop to look up xxx and replace it with the values consecutively in row C. Look at example for a better Idea. I found a way to find and replace, but I not sure how to use it with qoutes. I was thinking maybe I dont even need row A and just supply a list and excel could have the chunk of data in the code itself.

Using List To Replace Cell Values

Feb 2, 2013

I want to replace the values in column A if a unique value is identified on a particular row. Here's some sample data from Column A

A2= 01/16 Petsmart Inc 1372 Miami FL Card 7777
A3= 02/13 Sir Nicks Brodhead WI Card 7777
A4= 01/05 Canal Center Walk C37436 Orlando Fl Card 7777
A5= 01/24 Shell Oil 5744417710 Atlanta GA Card 7777
A6= 8/12 05 Canal Center Walk C37436 Orlando Fl Card 7777
A7=09/01 05 Canal Center Walk C37436 Orlando Fl Card 7777
A8=12/21 Top Deck Bridges C37436 Denver CO Card 7777

Here's my list in cells D2:D6

Canal Center Walk
PetSmart
Sir Nicks
Top Deck Cafe

I created a list of values in Column D then created the below formula in column B and replicated it down.

=IFERROR(INDEX(D$2:D$6,MATCH(TRUE,SEARCH(D$2:D$6,A2)=1)),A2)

What I would like the formula to do is look at the list in column D. If a particular row shows a match for that text string it will populate that value in column B, but delete everything preceding the text value and after.

Ex: A2 = 01/16 Petsmart Inc 1372 Miami FL Card 7777
B2 should = Petsmart

Find Values On One Tab And Replace Data From Adjacent Cell

Apr 3, 2014

I have one sheet in my workbook called 'mapping' which has a list of codes on it, the length of which will vary on a periodic basis.

I have another fairly large sheet on the workbook called 'data' (around 2000 rows) that will also vary in size. I want to do a search on the data tab for each code that is contained on column 4 of the mapping tab and if the code is found, enters the corresponding value from column 1 of the mapping tab to the cell 6 columns to the left of where the code was found on the data tab (cols H and B in this case).

The issue I have is the codes maybe contained more than once on the data tab so I need the find/replace command to search the whole of the data tab and perform the task each time.

Replace Values In Range Of Cells With Varying Values?

Mar 14, 2013

I am trying to replace a range of cells with certain values but I can not figure it out. I'm almost there I think but don't know how to get the varying values I'm looking for. So I have a column (AJ in this instance) that has a bunch of "xx" values at different spots within the column. I want to replace those xx values with numbers 01 through 36. What I have below gets me just about there but it replaces every xx value with 01. How do I get it to go 01 on the first one, 02 on the second one, etc?

/code
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Range("AJ1", Cells(Rows.Count, "AJ").End(xlUp))
If cell.Value = "xx" Then _
cell.Value = "01"
Next cell
/code

Replace The Values

Feb 28, 2009

I have a workbook with two worksheets. The first is called Input and in cells C3 a product code is entered and in cell D7 the value and F10 the description.

The second sheet called History has a range of Product codes in cells AA5:CD5, AA4:CD4 holds values and AA8:CD8 descriptions.

Now for the intersting part, I need a macro to run that looks at the value in cell C3 of the input sheet and if a match can be found in cells AA5:CD5 of the History sheet then the value from D7 would replace the value in AA4:CD4 and F10 would replace the value in AA8:CD8.

Example if cell C3 has RJ12345 as the product, D7 reads £15.10 and D7 reads towel.

The code RJ12345 is foound in cell BC5 then cell BC4 would be replaced with the value £15.10 and BC6 would have the worf towel entered.

How Do I Replace Numeric Values Only

Jan 20, 2009

When using the replace rule in Excel, you can use "?" to represent a standard variable, e.g. if you had the text "Bottle 100g", and you set the replace rule as "?g", it would delete the "g" and the four characters before it, leaving you with "Bottle".

However, if I have lots of replace rules to make in a file, and I only want to eliminate the numerical values before a letter, how do I go about doing this?

For example, if I had the text "Dog food 10g", and I made a replace rule "??g", it would leave me with " food ". What I would really need, is a way of taking away the numeric values before the "g", which would give me "Dog food".

Therefore, is there a unique identifier for numeric and/or text values?

Replace Values Greater Than 200?

Nov 4, 2010

I want to replace all numbers in the worksheet which are greater than 200 with 200. I mean all numbers greater than 200 should be set to 200. values are not all in the same column or same row, they are spread throughout the worksheet. I tried using the Find and Replace, but it can replace only a specified value with only another specified value. I want to use some kind of a filter which will choose all numbers greater than 200, and make them 200.

I am needing to do a find and replace on multiple values in an excel worksheet. For example in column d when you find ABC123456 replace with XYZ654321. But there are several hundred in a sequence that need to be replace w/ a different sequence.

For example the argument is:

Formula To Replace Values If Another Exists?

May 14, 2014

So I have this formula to basically lookup the letters in column L and if certain letters exist, then change those letters to another letter. Here is my Formula:

=IF(L1="A",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH("B",$L$1:$L$200,0)),"B",L1),IF(L1="D",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH("E",$L$1:$L$200,0)),"E",L1),
IF(L1="L",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH("L",$L$1:$L$200,0)),"O",L2),IF(L2="F",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH("K",$L$1:$L$200,0)),"K",L1),L1))))

For example: if column L looks like

A
B
A
E
D

Then it would convert the A's to B's since there is a B present and D's to E's, but if the B and E hadn't been in the equation then it would leave the A's and D's as they are. WIth this formula the output looks like:
B
B
B
E
E

My problem with this formula is that it only recognizes the first letter in each column. Sometimes I have multiple letters in a column and I need it to recognize them and change accordingly.

For example:
A
D_B
E

I would like to have it change to
B
E_B
E

I have attached a sample workbook that may make it more clear... If a VBA code would work better then I would be open to that as well. Combining question.xlsx

Find And Replace COLOR Of Values?

Jul 27, 2013

Is there a way to find specific values and change their colors all at once in xls?

For example, if it looked like:

1 4 5 3 7
4 2 6 3 1
5 9 2 6 4

And if I tell it to change every 4 to red, it'd be like:

1 4 5 3 7
4 2 6 3 1
5 9 2 6 4

Or changing the cells' color would be ok, too.

Replace Values Between Two Keywords In A Column?

Jan 31, 2014

I have data in which there are important keywords within a row (e.g.,# Message: FacesSc0_1) that are 'boundary markers' for data that is relevant to me. What I want to do is to select the data in the column between two such keywords, replace them all with the same specific value, and delete the other rows.

For example a column may look like this:

534.88
534.78
# Message: FacesSc0_1
534.78
534.55
534.59
# Message: FacesSc0_2
534.55
534.55
# Message: FacesSc0_3
534.78
534.55
534.59
# Message: FacesSc0_4

I would like to replace the values in the cells between "# Message: FacesSc0_1" and "# Message: FacesSc0_1" with the value 1, delete the values between "# Message: FacesSc0_2" and "# Message: FacesSc0_3", and replace the values in the cells between "# Message: FacesSc0_3" and "# Message: FacesSc0_4" with value 2. The resulting column would be reduced to this:

# Message: FacesSc0_1
1
1
1
# Message: FacesSc0_2
# Message: FacesSc0_3
2
2
2
# Message: FacesSc0_4

Find And Replace Different Values In A Range Of Cells

May 8, 2008

I would like to be able to replace all cell values in a range of 20c by 20r (i.e. 400 cells). In all cases the condition would be the same (find all cells with a value greater than than zero), but then replace with different values.

e.g. Cells with value >0 in range CX119:DQ138 replace with "NT", then cells with value of >0 in range DR119:EK138 replace with "NU"

I thought you could do it with find and replace by just selecting that range of cells but can't see how to set the conditional >0 bit.
