Delete All Content Except For Some Words

Jan 31, 2008I need to compare a list of keywords (stored in a string variable) with the content of a cell in order to see if any of the keywords do appear in the cell. I have to work with many such lists which can grow over time. What I'm doing is using InStr(cell with content, keyword) for each keyword. My goal is to have a macro which can automatically create the long formula from any list. My actual problem is that the formula I've build and stored acts more like a string. I'd like it to say either true or false. Anyway, here's a sample of what I came up with so far.
Sub build_formula()
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer, m(20) As Integer, n As Integer, z As Integer
Dim List As String, f(2) As String, s(20) As String, sp As String, Source As String
Dim Formula As Variant
List = "black, blue, green, red, yellow, white, z"
Source = Cells(3, 1).Value
z = InStr(1, List, "z")
i = 1
n = 1
Do
i = InStr(i + 1, List, ",")
m(n) = i ..........................

Delete Cell Content If Zero 0
Mar 18, 2008I need a macro that will search though Column AD and delete the cell contents if the cell contains "0" (zero). Edit: I'm sorry I just figured this out using the following
Dim lastrow, j As Integer
lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "ad").End(xlUp).Row
'I presume the last row C is not blank
For j = lastrow To 1 Step -1
'MsgBox j
If Cells(j, "ad") = 0 Or Cells(j, "ad") = "0" Then
Range(Cells(j, "ad"), Cells(j, "ad")).Clear
End If

Macro To Delete Specific Cell Content

Jun 6, 2014I am making a content database and need to count the number of words in each cell...
I know you can count them with
=IF(LEN(TRIM(A2))=0,0,LEN(TRIM(A2))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A2,” “,””))+1)
but the the cells have line breaks so this formula won't work
I've understood that since there is a space before the new line, the formula will not recognise the space and therefore not recognise a new word.

Excel 2013 :: Formula To Auto Delete Number In Dropdown List When Number Appears In Another Cell
Apr 27, 2014I'm making a Excel 2013 spreadsheet that has formula in a column that auto enters a number 1-40 when something is entered to the left of that cell. There are 300 rows in the spreadsheet. I would like to make a drop down list in a column cell to the right that would delete that number in that cell from the drop down list. For example cell C1 has 39, that 39 then is deleted from the drop down list. C2 has 22 in it, click on the drop down list cell and it shows 1-40 less 39 and 22.

Apr 18, 2014Formula/macro/etc that would enable me to have content of a cell changed based on the content of another cell in the same row.
Example: cell in column D says "PSA" - so I would need the cell in column H for that same row to read "Radio"
I would need an entire sheet scanned to review for these occurrences and make the appropriate changes. I also would need the formula to be inclusive enough to scan for variations in column D cell content (PSA 1, PSA 2, etc).
Sorting Mixed Content - Numbers And Words
Mar 28, 2014I have a worksheet with a row of mixed cells near the top. By "mixed", I mean some cells have only numeric data (numeric-cells) and some have only words (word-cells).
GOAL: I want to sort the columns to the following order:
First all the columns with only numeric-cells in the mixed row, with those columns sorted in DESCENDING numeric order of the numeric-cells in the mixed row; followed by the columns with only word-cells in the mixed row sorted by ASCENDING alphabetic order.
So far all I have been able to accomplish is:
First all the columns with only numeric-cells in the mixed row, with those columns sorted in ASCENDING numeric order of the numeric-cells in the mixed row; followed by the columns with only word-cells in the mixed row sorted by ASCENDING alphabetic order. This was accomplished by a simple sort using ASCENDING order on the mixed row.
OR
First all the columns with only word-cells in the mixed row, with those columns sorted in DESCENDING alphabetic order of the word-cells in the mixed row; followed by the columns with only numeric-cells in the mixed row sorted by DESCENDING numeric order. This was accomplished by a simple sort using DESCENDING order on the mixed row.
This may sound as confusing to you as it does to me, so I have attached an example file showing hypothetical Input Data and the Desired Result.
I did the example file in multiple steps, but that's too painful in the general case where calculations determine what is in which cell in the mixed row. All data are calculated, even the word-cell data AND so dependent on other data, and the columns in the mixed row that are word-cells and those that are numeric cells don't remain the same.
Eventually I'd like to do this with a macro, so if VBA has some power to do this that EXCEL commands don't, then that's fine.
I could probably live with the final result as numeric-cell columns sorted in DESCENDING order followed by word-cell columns sorted in DESCENDING order, but I haven't even been able to accomplish that AND it's not quite the goal.

Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.
