Inserting A Space Between Text In Cells Belonging To One Column?
Jun 5, 2014
I am operating Excel for Mac 2011 version 14.4.2
I have a list of 1500 addresses in a column, something like, 5VistaTerrace, and I need to insert a space between the number and each of the words so that it reads 5 Vista Terrace in the cell.
All of the addresses are different, some with 4 or 5 words like 5ABrownBayCourt... that particular one I would want to read 5A Brown Bay Court in the end.
Is there a formula or excel trick I can perform to save me the time of manually adding the spaces?

I have several lists of hundreds of emails that I need to list in an email string via Lotus Notes. I need a space and comma in between each name, ex:
john.doe@dm.com, john.doe1@dm.com, john.doe2@dm.com
I am using the below formula manually but it is taking too long. How to automate this? Is there a way to create the space and comma for as long as the list is?
=CONCATENATE(B6,", ",B7,", ",B8,", ",B9,", ",B10,", ",B12,", ",B13,", ",B14,", ",B15,", ",B16,", ",B17)

What is the VBA code for inserting text in all column B-cells of multiple selected rows?
I am creating a worksheet with a table containing various data related to orders of various materials (this is more or less data gathering from an older, paper-based 'system'). This table spans, columnwise, from A to D and expands downwards as more orders are added. The information in each column is: A=order number, B=type of material and C=material specs. and D=additional comments.
I've set it up so that the only thing I really have to do is to insert the type of material in the cells of column B, and the rest will sort itself out. Instead of having to insert a new row for each new entry and manually typing in the name of the material (these entries are often done in the midst of already existing data), I created several similar, macroed buttons for the different types of materials we use. These macros work by selecting the row of the currently active cell, inserting a new row and then add the name of the material in the column B-cell of this new row. What I am having trouble doing though, is to get the text-entry to work for a selection of multiple cells.
As an example, lets say that I would like to add 5 orders of "Grade A Steel" in the middle of the table - in the row above row 8. With the macro I currently have I can select cell B5, click the macro, and a new row will be inserted with "Grade A Steel" in column B of this new row. This action could be performed 5 times over, but would be easier if I could just mark a range of 5 cells, say B8:B12, click the macro and get the text/data inserted the column B-cells of all 5 of the new rows. So far I've been able to create a macro that inserts multiple new rows, but I've only been successful in filling the column B-cell in the first row leaving the 4 below empty.

I am trying to create a macro that will create a comma and space between every 5th character within a cell. that would be preference #1. What I decided to go with for now, instead, is to try (using the macro recorder) text to columns, fixed width, and do this after every 5th character, and selecting each cell to be formatted as text.
What I am having difficulties with is trying to tell the macro which cells to touch and which ones not to. I do not want the macro to do text to columns and fixed width on simple text. I only want it to do the macro when it is a string of numbers that, during transfer from PDF to excel, have been concatenated into one cell. I also want the macro to do this for infinite number of rows. I have excel 2007.
I am attaching a small excel file with examples of data I am working with. I have saved this excel file as a 97-2003 version for those who do not have 2007. As I stated, if anybody can help me figure out how to do a simple insert comma space every 5th character where information has been concatenated, that would be preference. Also, I am not trying to change anything within column A. Only column B. On the sample file please note B3 - B6. Rows 5 & 6 are fine as they are. Other problem rows include B11 - B13

I need to create a spreadsheet that has approximately 1000 rows with the same exact information in each of them prefilled (as I use the "drag-down" method). I use this chart throughout the year to enter various bits of data in each row. I also use conditional formatting in each row. The company I work for wants to have an empty space between each row.
"
You can create the blank rows separately and then interleave them with the existing rows by sorting. To start, insert a new column to the left of the existing column A. Enter 1 in cell A1 and highlight column A all the way to the last row that contains data. From the Edit menu select Fill | Series and click on OK. Column A should now contain numbers from 1 to the total number of rows. Press Ctrl-C to copy these cells to the clipboard, click in the cell just below the last of them, and press Ctrl-V to paste. Now highlight the entire data area, including the new rows with just a number in column A. Select Sort from the Data menu and choose the No header row option in the resulting dialog box. Under Sort by select Column A, under Then by select column B, and click on OK. Finally, delete column A. You now have a blank row after every one of the original 1,000-odd rows."
This works great for the data that I copied (with the drag down method) to all the rows. However, this method does not insert an empty line in between all the conditional formatting I have throughout the spreadsheet. This is my conditional formatting formula I have "manage rules" which is under "conditional formatting" =NOT(ISBLANK($A6)) (*please take note that this is selected for 1000 rows.) Maybe there is some kind of change in the formula that I need in order for the conditional formatting method to be copied onto every 2nd line of the 1000 rows".

I have a huge data file that must unfortunately be mandatorily downloaded in a single column format, with coma delimitation for each separate piece of data instead of a space, as follows: 08/04/2009,158,7,1849,1184,824451,403711
What I need to do is put each of the bits of data (coma separating each bit) into a separate column, so that each piece may be further processed. Is there a simple way to do this? Would be happy just pasting the data to a new worksheet, if there was a simple way to remove the coma, create a space between each number, and automatically place each piece of data into a separate column.

I have been working on different formulas to return the text string between the first and last space and have been unsuccessful. Is this possible?
I have tried several combos or Left and Right, I have been able to get the values after the first space, and the values before the last space, but not between the spaces.
String: Y60
~C CULT NUCLEUS 3X2 SPRING WST BK XL
Desired results: D60
CULT NUCLEUS 3X2 SPRING WST BK

I know different variations of this question get asked all the time... but I can't find an answer that I'm sure will *always* do what I want.
I have a range of cells (A1:A10), and I want to count all the text entries of positive length. That is to say, I don't want to count:
blanks
numbers
zeros
spaces
errors
I'm sure I need to use the LEN function, but I can't quite figure out how.
this counting expression will be inserted in a SUMPRODUCT formula

This may sound trivial, but how do you insert a column to the right of the current selection?
If I do Selection.EntireColumn.Insert that inserts a column to the left. Anyone know how to do this?

When I try to insert a row, Excel displays the warning "cannot shift nonblank cells off the worksheet". I understand what the warning means but there are no nonblank cells at the bottom of my worksheet! Just to be sure, I have selected the bottom-most rows, cleared them, deleted them, and everything else I can think of. The warning still appears.

I am trying to find a solution for highlighting cells in a column that are repeats, ie. >3. I also need these cells to only be highlighted if the adjacent cell in the next column contains specific text. I have tried using conditional formatting with a countifs formula to no avail.

how to shift data in a column down multiple rows while in an IF statement. I am assuming you cannot just simply repeat the insert cell formula.
Here is my code - it's ugly but it was working when I just needed it to move down one cell:
lastrow = Range("A2").End(xlDown).Row
For i = 2 To lastrow
Range("B" & i).Select
If Range("B" & i).Value = Range("B" & i).Offset(-1, 1).Value Then
[Code].....

I am using Excel 2002 and have had a couple of files that seem to have become corrupted recently. When I try to open the files there is nothing there, no cells just a grey space where the cells should be. When I try to close Excel it asks me if I want to save changes when no changes have been made.
I had not made any changes to the sheets prior to this happening so am struggling to work out what is going on.

I have a text file, which is been imported to excel sheet. There are 2 fields in the text file. Each field has to be placed in one column. The first field has values with space. Due to this the first field is split into 2 fields and totally 3 columns are imported in the excel sheet. Have set .TextFileSpaceDelimiter=True so that it would split the 2 fields, but since the first field has space in it, it splits into 3 fields. Is their any alternate way to obtain the above?

I download players names from the internet for a football program I have and then have a formula that separates their names from their numbers. The problem is that in the cell with the players name their is always a space before the name starts. How can I get rid of this space?
The current text I download comes from the internet as follows:
2 Tom Bellchambers
4 Jobe Watson
5 Brent Stanton
7 Leroy Jetta
9 Brendon Goddard
11 David Zaharakis
12 Stewart Crameri
15 Courtenay Dempsey
These are all in column A I have the following formula in column D:
=MID(A1,SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(--MID(A1,ROW(INDEX($A:$A,1):INDEX($A:$A,LEN(A1))),1)))+1,LEN(A1))
The formula separates the names from the numbers but it leaves a space before the name starts such that in column D the first name woud be appear as:
Tom Bellchambers (or - ""Tom""Bellchambers)
Jobe Watson
And so on. My computer tries to match up these names in another sheet but because there is a space before the name begins it doesn't register. I got the formula above from one of you geniuses a while back and have NFI what it really means but alter it slightly so it gets rid of that space at the start of the name.

I need to extract the 40.25 out. Every line item may be different but the number I am extracting is always after the last space. I tried using mid and find but this doesn't work well when there is more than 1 space in the text.
