Inserting Commas Into Cells With Mailing Addresses?
May 13, 2014
I receive a report that is generated by another program. One column contains the address, city, state, and zip (5 and 10 digit) with no coma separators. Macro that would add comas before the Zip, state, and city so that I can use the text to columns tool in excel.
here is an example of the column
7935 COUNCIL PL SUITE 200 MATTHEWS NC 28105
223 WRENWOOD LN CHARLOTTE NC 28211
1125 BIRCH ST APT A ROGERS CITY MI 49779-1406
PO BOX 1376 NEW YORK NY 10018
428 C ST APT 301 SAN DIEGO CA 92101
4682 MISSION BV SAN DIEGO CA 92109
I need it to look like this:
7935 COUNCIL PL SUITE 200 ,MATTHEWS ,NC ,28105
223 WRENWOOD LN ,CHARLOTTE ,NC ,28211
1125 BIRCH ST APT A ,ROGERS CITY ,MI ,49779-1406
PO BOX 1376 ,NEW YORK ,NY ,10018
428 C ST APT 301 ,SAN DIEGO ,CA ,92101
4682 MISSION BV ,SAN DIEGO ,CA ,92109
Then I can run the text to columns and it will split the text into 4 columns.
I have spreadsheet that contains about 25,000 rows of client addresses. The columns/data is set up as follows for example
ColumnA...........ColumnB..................ColumnC Jim Smith..........123 Apple Road.........New York NY 10022-3456 Tina Jone..........456 Apple Road.........San Diego CA 12345-1111 Bob Smith..........789 Peach Lane........Seattle WA 59802-3344 Tim Smith..........4255 Lime Lane.........Missoula MT 59802-3333
I am having an issue with the vendor whom needs to do a mailing of all 25,000 clients. They have indicated that they require comma delimited data to create the mailing. In order to do this, I need to place a comma after the city and a comma after the state.
So as in the first row of data the cells looks like this:
New York NY 10022-3456
The vendor needs it to look like this:
New York, NY, 10022-3456
Is there a function and/or VBA procedure to put commas in where I need them?
how do to count the number of occurrences of a text string in a range of cells, where some cell have comma delimited entries?
I am trying to count the number of times a project number is identified in a column of cells. However, in any row in that column a cell may have multiple project numbers referenced, separated by commas.
Using countif Excel thinks that the cell has a different entry and it won’t include it in the count even though the criteria string is in the cell.
I have a workbook that is going to be used as an offline 'database', recording issues being worked on and all the necessary details e.g. time logged, user, problem type, comments etc. A lot of this will include vba for automation and validation etc.
This will then be exported in comma seperated .txt format. So I don't want anyone putting a comma in a normal field within Excel. I'm sure I remember a way of blocking certain character entry a few years back when I was working on a similar problem. However, time is getting the better of me so is anyone able to help save me some time and point me in the right direction? Trying to find a suitable search string for this question is proving tricky.
I need to have them look like this: A1 cabinet hardware, cabinet hardware knobs, cabinet hardware pulls, kitchen cabinet hardware, amerock cabinet hardware, antique cabinet hardware. How do I do it? Im a COMPLETE Newbie when it comes to excell but I urgently need to figure this one out....how do I do it?
I have a column of contacts. Each contact has data spread out over many rows, most of which are blank. I would like all of the data spread out through the rows to be in one cell, delineated by commas (so I can import into another program).
Concatenating the cells works except that I end up with 20 commas for two strings of info.
Just so you understand I may have this: Mary red blue yellow purple Rob blue purple Trey yellow
and I want it to look like this
Mary red, blue, yellow, purple Rob blue, purple Trey yellow
i am trying to import an excel document and then copy over some columns to another worksheet from the imported worksheet, using a macro. Everything imports and copies over fine except for one column that has cells that comprise of a list of number separated by commas. When these cells get copied over some of the values retain the commas but some of them (specially when there are a lot values separated by comma) gets changed to this format
From: 1,229,124,012,441,230 To: 1.22912E+15
From: 1044,1048,1052,1053 To: 1.0441E+15
From: 1279,1282,1286,1295,1299 To: 1.27913E+19
From:926,929,938 To: 926929938
I am trying to figure out whats happening here! Is there a max number of letters this column can take and if it exceeds that value, excel converts them to this format? Or is the formatting gets changed to something else while copying and pasting?
I am working on a excel file that has a sheet that i want to convert to .csv. The sheet has formula's for the first three column that are warped an if statement that returns "" (blank) if certain conditions are not meet. However when i got to save the file as a csv i get a file with ",,,,,,," where there is no data. I would like to save csv and have only commas where this data.
Example When i convert a sheet like Firstname Lastname Password Tim Cats Bo3n9x
it saves as Firstname Lastname Password Tim Cats Bo3n9x ,,, ,,, ,,,
I have a large spreadsheet, within which i am trying to remove commas from all cells. I get the error 'formula is too long' when I carry out the search. Some of the cells are >1024 characters in length and contain dates, text etc.
I have the following syntax in B1: "1,2,3,5,6". and I need VBA to take the very last number out of that list, and increase by four in single steps. For example: before the code: "1,2,3,5,6" and then after it "1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9." The code must be flexible, though, because it will be running within another Macro, and it must work whether the last number in the list is 1 digit ("...4,5,8"), 2 digit ("...34,35,36") or 3 digit ("...111, 113, 114"). Those three examples would be changed into "...4,5,8, 9, 10, 11" "...34,35,36, 37, 38, 39" "...111, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117".
Excel VBA. I have a problem which is frustrating me almost beyond measure, but I am convinced that the answer is a simple one.
sub a() copies the values of 3 non-contiguous cells and pastes them as contiguous cells. This is simple as the cell addresses to be copied are absolute.
VB: Sub a() Dim x As Integer x = 6 Range("A1,C1,E1").Copy Cells(x, "H").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues End Sub
Sub b() copies a range of contiguous cells, including empty cells, and pastes them as contiguous cells, including empty cells. This is simple because I have specified a "range" of cells with variable addresses.
VB: Sub b() Dim x As Integer Dim y As Long x = 6 y = 1 Range("A" & y & ":E" & y).Copy Cells(x, "H").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues End Sub
However, what I really want to do is copy 3 non-contiguous cells with variable addresses similar to sub b (ie. 'A' & y, 'C' & y, 'E' & y) and paste them as contiguous cells (without empty cells) as in sub a ().
What is the correct way to specify the cells to be copied?
I'm a primary school class representative and I want to create an excel contact list of the parents email addresses so that I can click a button, it will open the default email (in my case MS Outlook) and then populate the "To" email address field with the email addresses (separated by a comma).
Can anyone provide me the VB code that I can paste into my worksheet VBA that will look at a range of cells (say E2:E30) that contain email addresses, and put them in the "To" field of a blank email?
I have put a button on the page and it's called "EmailButton" but I don't know what VB to put with it. I'm using MSExcel 2007 (at home) and 2003 (at work)
I have a pretty big worksheet (230 columns x over a thousand rows). Any given column might have 3-4 nonblank cells; the rest are blank. What I want to do for each column is obtain the address of each nonblank cell, then grab the contents of the corresponding cell in the B column and concatenate the results. In the attached example, I want to put the function in d2, and the expected result would be ar 001, fc 001, hw 003.
I am currently working with a team of people who are on connected to different networks, and frequently coming on and off the project. We hold a spreadsheet with everyones details, and some of these details are the mailing lists each person should be subscribed to. For example "System Downtime","Team Leads" etc. As people come and go, we dont want them recieving emails when they are not on the project. Attached is a greatly cut down version of what we have. For most users the data will be locked down - we want them to be able to copy the mailing lists to their clipboard via a dashboard so they can then paste it into their Outlook.
Pseudo On clicking "Copy to your clipboard" Lookup mailing list selected in drop down (This dropdown validates on the MailingList range D2:I2) Look for the corresponding column for that mailing list Only look at rows where the individual is on the project ("Yes") For each person with "Yes" in the column for that list, concatenate their email address Copy the result to the users clipboard, ready for them to paste into the To: field in their browser
I need to return a value from a cell in Column H, but with a row number that varies with each entry.
I repeat this formula every 5 rows or so. But the cells referenced on another spreadsheet are only one row apart. Because of this discrepance, when I copy my highly developed cluster of formulas, they only reference every 5th entry on the other sheet. What I've been doing is manually altering long, complicated formulas by hand. I can't do a replace function because every once in awhile it'll find an extra instance of the digit I'm replacing and mess up parts of the formula I don't want changed. I could avoid this tedious, time-consuming work-around if I could make a formula that would do something like this:
=Display Value from in column H: (row number per cell B1)
And cell B1 would include the number 3789.
So the returned result is the value from cell H:3789
I have a table, 6 colums and rows which will be extended (further information added). Is it possible to code something in VBA which will search a spreadsheet at the end of the week and if it finds a row of information with a date which has passed, it will send an email to me? or alternatively can i setup a button which i can press at anytime and it works out which rows have dates that have elapsed and sends an email to me there and then? Do i need to configure my mail box for this?
I just received a massive worksheet full of information for mailing labels. It's all in columns-which is excel. Is there an easy way to set this up for mailing labels? I've tried to import it into word, but I'm not getting anywhere. Is it possible to change the way excel displays the cells? To a point where I can have the address beneath, then the state, zip, etc?
I have a couple of spreadsheets that I have to mail out monthly to the same recipients and I have figured out how to do that in the macro. However, an Outlook alert pops up warning me that an outside program is attempting to send a message and I have to approve the sending of it. I have tried using the Application.DisplayAlerts = False statement, but that apparently only suppresses the displaying of warnings and alerts in Excel, not the entire Office suite. Is there any way I can make this message go away and just send the e-mails w/o intervention?
Second, I have another spreadsheet which imports data from our UNIX system that I run twice a week. It analyzes, massages and reformats the data, then saves it to a text file, which then gets sent to the same recipients every time. Is there a way to send the text file as an attachment automatically through a VBA macro in Excel? If so, how? So far, I have been able to find help on how to send the entire workbook or a sheet within the workbook, but not a file other than the workbook.
I have a data set for over 9000 addresses and can't get it formatted the way I need to. Attached is a small version of the doc. I need colums with "Name, address, zip, state, etc." and need to get rid of any duplicate addresses. address mock1.xlsx.
The main issue i'm running into is some of the addresses are 3 rows, some are 4 or 5. If there is a way to group all the data automatically between the "----------------------" that seperate them I think the offset or concatenate tools might work?
This document was originally wordpad in this form and I don't neccesarily need all the data, mainly need to make a mailing list. address mock1.txt
I do not know what function will do what I need. I am compiling info from different sources to make a mailing list. Basically it boils down to the following. Sheet 1 has Names and Parcel Numbers, sheet 2 has Parcel Numbers and Addresses. I am trying to combine it in a way that I have names and addresses on the same sheet.
I am trying to find out how to quickly remove do not mail names from our mailing lists. We have several lists and our do not mail list is huge(280) so it's getting very time consuming to clean the lists. I'm assuming I can copy the do not mail list names to the current mailing list and then remove duplicates..but I want to remove both duplicates when i do that. My understanding of the remove duplicates feature and unique values is already a bit foggy.
I have some code to email a single, different excel file to multiple Outlook recipients. I am using Outlook 2003, and Excel 2007. I always use Compatability mode in Excel as 2007 is not widely used.
The code is shown below. What I can't understand is why it fails at the code highlighted red. It tells me that there is Run-time Error '13': Type Mismatch, but I can't see the issue.
I'm having trouble filtering a large list of 900 names to create mailing labels for anon-profit organization. For years I have been using Microsoft Works to create these labels, however, the people now doing the membership insist on using Excel. I have Office 2013 and am using Excel 2013 on a new Dell PC using Windows 7. I have partially solved the problem but have one hang up.
I got to a point where I could filter out the dates and a couple of other items, but can't seem to get the last two. I was able to get the minimum date (equal to or greater) than 2012 to filter and the (equal to)LIFE (life membership) one and the (equal or greater than) ID# of 9000to filter by changing the cell format in all of those columns of cells to "text" instead of "general", BUT I still can't get it to (be blank) for the M column which houses a "D" or "U" (indicating deceased or uninterested) and an E column which houses an "E" if the person receives the newsletter electronically rather than by mail.
My fieldset up is:
To Year is equal or greater than 2012 Or M Class is equal to LIFE Or ID# is equal or greater than 9000 And M is blank And E is blank
The first three work but the last two do not seem to filter properly.
