Find And Replace Formula For Locating Short Text Within Larger Text?

Jan 7, 2014

I have an existing Cash Flow Report that has a column of abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title where each cell contains a unique three lettered/numbered amount of characters (Example: 200). These three abbreviated character cells are specific and relate to their full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title (Example: WBS DWRRI-BW066-200).

In my attached excel model (Find, Locate, and Align WBS Elements to Cash Flow Report.xlsx), I need a formula for the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru B11 that will look at the abbreviated three lettered/numbered (WBS Element) titles in cells C3 thru C11, then search and recognize its unique counterpart contained in the, "SAP WBS Elements Export" sheet and return this full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title to the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru. B11, just to the left of its abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title.

Formula To Find Specific Text And Replace With Alternate Text?

Mar 4, 2014

I have a worksheet with several columns. I need a formula to search column D only and each time a specific location is identified to replace that location with alternate text. Example (ORIGNAL TEXT):

Column Dtext to text help.xlsx
BIRD
FISH
DOG
BAT
BUG

I need to search that listing and each time the word BIRD is mentioned have it replaced with FEATHERS and each time DOG is listed have it replaced with TAILS Final result would look like:

FEATHERS
FISH
TAILS
BAT
BUG

All other text should stay the same and replacement text should appear in the cell of the text it is replacing. This is a sheet used by multiple people several times a day and so the Find/Replace option really won't work.

Have working on this for at least 6 months and it just isn't going to happen for me. I thought I could use a Conditional format, but that is producing no results either.

Replace Text In Mutiple Text Boxes

Sep 12, 2007

Trying to Find a specific word and Replace with another within a textbox ( created from the drawing tool, as well as the control toolbar) The textboxes contain loads of text information.

as an example
The word "Apple" to be replaced with "Orange"

I came across this code from the archives (compliments of Dave Hawley)

Sub ReplaceTextBoxText()
Dim sTextBox As Shape
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
Set wSheet = Sheets.Add()
For Each sTextBox In Sheet1.Shapes

I've tried several variations with no results. (perhaps it's to extensive for my modest needs)

I am using vlookup to get a cell value from another sheet, but if the cell has "&" or "/" I need to substitue "&" and "/" with "and" so that the cell can be added later to a url.

i am using =VLOOKUP(a1,Sheet2!A1:W17968,6) to get the value of a1 in sheet 2 and return the value of column 6

this will return "Audio Cables & Leads" but i need it to say Audio Cables and Leads

I need the formula to also check and replace "/" with "and" as well so cables/wire will be Cables and wire

Criteria / Formula To Automatically Replace Formula With Value

Oct 22, 2013

I'm looking for a formula or criteria within a formula to prevent a cell from recalculating or just causing it to revert to a value if another cell becomes populated. Something like =IF(NOT(ISBLANK(xx)),STOPCALC(xx),...

I'm trying to determine some weighted week to week projections and I want to be able to determine the accuracy of the projections without them being influenced by the actuals once they show up (the projections use historical actuals and related data which are all in the same range where the futures will come in). Also hoping for a shortcut to do what I described without having to manually go in and stop the (thousands of) cells from recalculating since the actuals for a given periodicity arrive staggered and not at one specific time.

Replace All Symbols With Text

May 8, 2013

I am importing content control information in a word file into excel by using a macro in excel. The information is coming across nicely but when the information about a checkbox comes across, in excel, that's what you see, a checkbox (☐ or ☒). Is there any way (formula or vba) to replace all the checkboxes with a yes or a no?

I wrote a formula that works:

Code:
=IF(G8="☒","YeS","nO")

But this will add this information to a new column and I would like to replace the information in the existing column (the form has about 200 checkboxes) and I don't want to add a bunch of new columns.

I also toyed with VBA:

Code:
Range("G1:G100").Replace "&", "No"

But when I try to paste the ☐ in the vba code, I get a "?" so I am assuming it doesn't recognize the ☐ as a valid character.

Find And Replace Formatted Text

Jan 6, 2009

I want to find strikethrough text and replace it with blanks. In my sheet there are cells that contain both strikethrough and normal text. I tried using the 'Find and replace' tool, specifying the format. I've attached a picture with the settings from the Replace window.

The problem is that Excel finds the cells that contain strikethrough text, but replaces with blank ALL the cell content. I would like to replace only the strikethrough text from the cell and leave the normal text as it is!

Text To Columns - Find And Replace

Jun 20, 2013

I work at a club. I've got a spreadsheet sent to me from another club we do business with. On it are charges from their club to ours that list the charge and associated member number.

I'm trying to use the text to columns feature to separate the member number from the other data in the column so I can sort by member number making it easier for us to bill our members.

Here is a sample of the data:

"Beach Club Bar,b500"
"Beach Club Bar,s200"
"Beach Club Bar,a150"

When I try to use text to columns what happens using the comma as a deliminator, everything including and after the comma disappears.

Thinking that maybe I needed a space between the comma and the member number (in the first line b500 is the member number) I tried to use find and replace to replace , with , and a space after it. This also resulted in all of the data including and after the comma disappearing. I'm sure I'm missing something here.

I tried copying the data into a separate spreadsheet. Tried changing it to text or general.

I typed in the exact data as you see it and tried the text to column function and it worked perfectly. What could be hidden in the data in that column that's causing this?

Replace All Text In Full Column?

May 22, 2014

I need to replace a full column with a certain word. It needs to start at a specific cell and needs to replace the full column until it hits an empty cell. I can't do a find and replace because the words in that column are all different words.

Replace Some Of The Text In Word (Docx)

I have a VBA that opens a word document where I have a standard text, and some of the words are ment to change depending on who customer we have in mind.

It seems a bit unstable, sometimes it takes half of the words, if I add a sign like a comma after the word it seems to catch them better and manage to replace them.

Right now it doesn't change any of the words....

This is is:

Code:
Option Explicit

Find And Replace Text On Worksheet

Nov 11, 2011

I need some vba coding which will find and replace text on a worksheet. This would normally be straight-forward, however some text needs to be replaced by text which already occurs in the worksheet, and without it changing as well (if Find/Replace can perform two Find/Replaces at the same time???).

Here is the detail and what I am trying to accomplish: I have two worksheets each with a table of data.Worksheet 1 has a lookup table with three columns of data (column a and b are lists, with c being a formulated column which is dependent on the user selecting either column a name or column b name). I have done this easily enough using data validation on cell $C$1.Worksheet 2 has a user input table which column 3 is a dropdown validation using the named range "UsedName" from Worksheet 1.

I want the selected dropdown names to automatically change when the user changes Old Name to New Name (and vis-versa) on Worksheet 1.The list of values in the data validation dropdown list change well enough, but not any of the existing returned values. When I tried to use vba coding to Find & Replace, I run into issues because (Substanital and Important) are used in both instances, but at different levels with different matched names Important/Relevant.

Worksheet 1
A B C D
1 Cell with dropdown list New Names
2 (Old Names, New Names)
3
4 Old Names New Names Names Level
5 Equal Equivalent Equivalent 1
6 Dominant Critical Critical 2
7 Important Substantial Substantial 3
8 Substantial Major Major 4
9 Relevant Important Important 5
10 Minor Irrelevant Irrelevant 6
formula for column C =IF($C$1="Used Names", A5, B5)
column C is name ranged "Names

Worksheet 2
(Worksheet 2 has another table which has various data. One column which is a drop down list being pulled from Worksheet 1)

A B C D
1 Bob 25% Critical 19
2 Frank 60% Important 33
3 Ellen 40% Substantial 5
4 Ellen G 20% Substantial 12
5 Gary 55% Equivalent 100
6 Jo 50% Major 8
7 Peter 40% Important 22
8 Kim 12% Equivalent 30
9 Shelley 75% Substantial 15
10 John 75% Critical 90

so I want column C to automatically change from these New Names to the corresponding Old Name of the same level. So Critical would become Dominant, Important would become Relevant and Substantial would become Important.
