How To Search For A Word In A Column And Have Entire Row Opaque Once Word Is Found
I need my macros to search for the word "Cancel" or "Cancelled" in columns "T" and "U". Once found, I need the macros to make that entire row an opaque shading.
There will be other wording in these cells that contain "Cancel" or "Cancelled". Is it possible for the macros to search in the sentence and find the words "Cancel" or "Cancelled"
I started on the code below but am stuck.

Highlight Entire Row When Word Is In Cell
What I want to do is select all rows that contain the word conveyor in it. So far I have managed to select all the cells, I have also managed to select the entire row but one row at a time, I have even been able to turn all the cells a different color but I just want to highlight them for other formatting, copying, and several other things that need to be done. I have other documents this could be very useful in too so i want to make it a generic multi-line highlight rather than adding the formatting into the formula.

Calculate If Specific Word Found In Column
I would like to use the following code to see if the word "reservoir" shows up in any of the rows in a certain column. If it does I want to insert the formula = SUM(D7:D257)*0.1 into cell C2 and if it doesn't then I want to put a 0 into cell C2. I've tried many routes but can't get past the error if it can't find the word. Range("B7:B257").Find(What:="Reservoir").Activate

Pull The Entire Row If It Finds The Specific Word
The following sub will look in the file ("FY09 SOF"), in column "A", search for the strings that begin with "2109", "3009", or ends in "-1", and copy the entire row. It will then paste these in the file ("FY09 PR Log Blank"). I also need it to look in column "C" in the ("FY09 SOF") file and pull the entire row if it finds the word "Payroll". For some reason it will pull everything needed except the "Payroll" rows. What am I doing wrong? Sub get_data() Dim wb As Workbook, wbDest As Workbook Dim ws As Worksheet, wsDest As Worksheet Dim lngCalc As Long Dim FoundCells As Range Dim FoundCell As Range Set wb = Workbooks("FY09 SOF") Set wbDest = Workbooks("FY09 PR Log Blank") Set wsDest = wbDest.Worksheets("Paste all here, then sort") With Application .ScreenUpdating = False..........................

Color Entire Row If Cell In Columns Contains Specific Word
how to format a row based on text that is in a certain column. For instance, if a cell in column B has text in it I need to format the entire rest of the row with a certain background color and text color. I've been searching around here for a while and I think I'm really close, but I just can't seem to nail it down. Here's the code that I've worked on so far. Sub Reformat() Dim SrchRng3 Dim c3 As Range Set SrchRng3 = ActiveSheet.Range("B1", ActiveSheet.Range("B65536").End(xlUp)) Set c3 = SrchRng3.Find("Europe - *", LookIn:=xlValues) Do

Color Row If Cell In Column Contains Specific Word
I've been trying to come up with a conditional that will format a row if a cell contains any instance of a given word. I know the following will format rows containing the EXACT entry of "apple" in column E: =$E1="apple" But I'd like a conditional that will find entries like "apple pie" and "crabapple" as well. I'm sure it's a simple solution, using a SEARCH function or something...but I can't figure it out.

VBA: Search Function: Which Shows An Input Box Where You Can Enter A Word To Search For
I'm from Bavaria, Germany. Right now, I am doing an internship for my studies. my problem: I need a search procedure which shows an Input Box where you can enter a word to search for. It should work like the original Excel search (Ctrl-F), but with a simpler design, like with my own Text "Enter your Query" and a Button "Submit Query" / "Quit search". Is there the possibility to Highlight the Search Target? The problem hereby is that this highlighting should not be permanent. That means the user sees the target for which he searched for, the cell highlighted in a different color, etc. But as soon as the user clicks onto another cell, etc., the highlighting vanishes. If there is no fitting match, there should be a MessageBox like "Sorry the Target xyz cannot be found"

Export Cell Contents To Word Fields In A Protected Word Document
Is it possible to export Excel cell contents to Word fields in a protected Word document? For example... What code would be needed to tell Excel to open up, copy and export the contents of A2 in the active sheet of a workbook to "Field 2" in a Word document named "Report 01" and then put the contents of B2 to "Field 2" etc? Do both applications have to be opened up at the same time or is Excel able to open up Word on its own? Will the macro be able to.... 1. Automatically open up the correct Word document? 2. Look ONLY in a certain folder for the "Report 01" Word document? or Bring up a "selection" box that allows you to select the document you wish Excel to export it's data to? 3. Close and save the Word Document without any user intervention?

Replace Word In MS Word With Varable From MS Excel
I am in the middle of automating a process here at work, the program takes a word, "pencil" for example, from excel. It will then open up a word document with content already in it (premade template). The program will then find all instances of a string, "placepencilhere" for example, and will replace that instance with the string from excel. Basically I want to be able to take a variable that has a stored string value from excel and use it to replace another variable in a word document. I tried recording a replace (ctrl+f, replace tab) macro, copying the code, and inserting it into the excel vba code.. but I get a error message. Here is what I have: ---

Search A Cell For Uppercase Word Only
This is wrekcing my head as I'm sure it can be done with an Array formula and I cant seem to get it sorted - Say I have 5 Rows of text starting in A2 "A quick word" "A quick WORD" "A" "word" "WORD" I need an excel formula to say "False", "False", "False", "False", "TRUE". All conditions to be met for TRUE are - Word must in uppercase, Uppercase Word must be longer than 1 character, Sentence (i.e. cell) can not contain a space. This is the path I've gone down, but almost certainly incorrect - =IF( FIND(CHAR(64+COLUMN($A$1:$Z1)),$A$2,1),TRUE,FALSE) [CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER]

VLOOKUP - Search Only One Word From Long Text, Write
Attached is the mock excel spreadsheet. I want to read "sam" from the lookup column's long text "sam is good" and then write "4" in the next column. Similarly read "white" from the long text "white is tired" and write "1". And so on,,,,, For more criteria, see box highlighted in yellow,,,,I used VLOOKUP but what am able to make it work only when there is one word "sam" in the lookup column. It returns #NA when the text is "sam is good". It should write nothing if none of the criteria is met and should keep doing until the last cell in the lookup column.

Conditional Formatting: If A Cell Value In Column X Contains The Word "open", Format Row Background To Yellow
I need to set up some conditional formatting on my spreadsheet, however I am having a little trouble with one of my conditions. The requirement is: - if a cell value in column X contains the word "open", format row background to yellow. - if a cell value in column X contains the word "resolved", format row background to green. - if a cell value in column X contains the word "moved" OR "closed", format row background to blue. Now I have manged the first two on my own, using the conditional formatting tool and using the formula "=SEARCH("open",INDIRECT("X"&ROW()))". However I am stuck on the last one. I tried... =OR(SEARCH("resolved",INDIRECT("X"&ROW())), SEARCH("closed",INDIRECT("X"&ROW()))) However this doesnt work. I tried looking at adding VB script in but to be honest I am not a VB programmer and cant really spend too much time on this. fix the final conditional format so it run if the cell contains either "resolved" or "closed"?

Last Word Or Number In Column
I have used this formula to get the last value in a column: =LOOKUP(9.99999999999999E+307,Items!A:A) That seems to be the most elegant formula that I have seen at this Message Board. But what about the most elegant formula to get the last word or value or error or TRUE/FALSE in a column? I have used this formula (entering it with Ctrl + Shift + Enter): {=OFFSET(Items!A1,MAX(ROW(Items!A:A)*(Items!A:A""))-1,0)} How many of you know other more elegant or efficient formulas?

I have a file with a lot of numbers, but one column with single digits. These digits have a cooresponding model name. I want to convert them all to their model name. There are only 4 model names. I tried a nested IF statement, but felt this wasn't working properly or was not the proper formula choice. A Find/Replace would work, but it picks up the single digits elsewhere in the sheet. I realize i could copy/paste my column to a new sheet and from there convert/paste, but I am trying to get better at Excel.

On the data sheet I attached you can see easily what I am trying to do: The macro should do something like this basically: Column A there is a entry like "L110E (CST_PRG-Wheel Loaders-E series models)" Lets say we have 10.000 entries more or less like this. Macro should do this: * Take first word for example in this case "L110E" and copy into column D same row. * Take second word's second part in this case only "PRG" and copy into column B same row. * Take the 3rd word between - - in this case only "Wheel Loaders" and copy into column C.
