Isolating Text That Occurs Multiple Times In Cell?
Jan 15, 2014
I want to isolate text on either side of dashes ( " - " ) that occur either 2 or 3 times in a single cell.
Example:
Apples - Pears - 99 - 100+ years
Bananas - 56 - 57+ years
In particular, I would like to capture the "99 - 100+ years" and "56 - 57+ years" text on its own.
I tried this " =SUBSTITUTE(A1, "*- ", "", 1) but it doesn't work

I have a list of data, integer values ranging from 0 to 36. Imagine a Roulette wheel. The list is long, with over one hundred data points. I would like to view the first 14 data points, and count how many times each value occurs. How many 0's? How many 1's? How many 2's?...How many 36's?
Obviously, many values will have 0 occurrences. Most will have 1 occurrence, some 2, and maybe one or two will have 3 occurrences. I doubt we will see a value with 4 or more occurrences, but it is possible. With this accomplished, I will then note the results. So, that accomplishes the first 14 data points, call them 1-14.
Then, I want to move down the list 1 data point, and repeat the process. So, here I am looking at data points 2-15. Basically, it's the same set of data, with the first point missing, and a new point added on. I will then note the results. I want to continue doing this until the last 14 are viewed.

I am attempting to create a formula that will count the number of times, lets say letter A, occurs in column E. However, the tricky part that I have been confused on is that I only want to count how many times A occurs between each hour of the day. I need to count number of times "A" occurs between each hour of the day for the entire month.
My Worksheet looks as such: Column A contains the dates for the month of November, Column B contains times that random instances occur, Column C is not important, Column E contains a Letter A-N that pertains to what occurred at a time in column B. SO, Column B and column E coordinate with each other.
Here is an example. Column A - Cell A1 - 11/01/2013 , A2 - 11/02/2013, A3 - 11/03/2013.
Column B - Cell B1 - 12:01 AM , Cell B2 - 14:03 , Cell B3 - 15:23
Column C - Cell E1 - A , Cell E2 - A, Cell E3 - B
So I would like Column F to display that between 12:00 - 12:59 Am there was X number of times the letter A occurred throughout the entire month.

I am trying to categorize a list of words based on the first letter.
For example:
[Code] ......
I want to see if the letter 'D' in 'Data' occurs in a range from A-G, if so display "A-G" in cell B,
else if the first letter occurs from H-M, display H-N in cell B
else if the first letter occurs from N-R, display N-R in cell B
else display S-Z in cell B.

I have an address column in which multiple strings of text and numbers have been combined. I need to isolate each string and place it into its own column.
Column looks like this....
ADDRESS
615 NE CORDER AVE, LEES SUMMIT, MO 64063
2661 NW LEES SUMMIT RD, LEES SUMMIT, MO 64064
104 SE 4TH ST, LEES SUMMIT, MO 64063
4944 SW GULL POINT DR, LEES SUMMIT, MO 64082
3904 SW PRYOR RD, LEES SUMMIT, MO 64082
329 NW BRADFORD ST, LEES SUMMIT, MO 64064
They need too look something like this...
No.
Suffix
Street
Type
City
State
Zip
615 NE Corder Ave Lees Summit MO 64083
The problem I'm having when trying to use a "left" or "right" formulas is some of the strings have different positions in the whole string itself (does that make sense?) (some addresses have 4 characters, some have 3, so on....)

and the next time B3, and so on.

The following formula is in cell A3: A3=IF(A2="X",A1+365,""). Rather than A3 displaying only 1 year, I would like for it to update after that day occurs to =A1+730, and then A1+1095, and so on.

I have a workbook with a tab called "parts list" where there are thousands of parts with prices. I need to sum all of the parts based upon their location within the list. The list is divided with the following headers - Yellow (Assemblies), Gray (Sub-Assemblies) there can be many under a yellow header, and Green (Components) there can be many under a Gray header.
I have been summing the areas manually, and I am hoping for a more automated way of creating the totals by running a macro.
I need to sum (Column K) from Yellow+1 to Yellow-1 and deposit the sum in the starting Yellow row - Column L. This needs to be repeated for as many Yellow Headers as there are in the list. I then need to repeat the process for Gray Headers - Col K, Gray+1 to Gray-1, and put total in starting Gray header, Column L. Once again, there can be many Gray Headers under a Yellow header, and this needs t be repeated throughout the list. I then need to repeat this for the Green Headers - same as above Gray. I am hoping that this can be done by color, but if it's easier, I can sort the list by color and in column M, add an "A" to all Yellow Headers, "S" to all Gray Headers, "C" to all Green Headers, and "E" to represent the end of the component list -

I am trying to use find and replace but the text that i'm searching for appears three times in the cell. I only need to replace the first occurrence in the cell. Alternatively, if there is a way to do this, can the second and third occurrence be changed?
Example:
Cheryl called Louie to advise she would be late for the meeting. Louie responded that he would meet Cheryl at her office. Cheryl confirmed.
I need to change the first 'Cheryl' to a job title and the second and third Cheryl to her initials (CL) so would read:
Manager of Aboriginal Affairs called Louie to advise she would be late for the meeting. Louie responded that he would meet CL at her office. CL confirmed.

I have a table listing certain values (Column C) and their respective probabilities, based on normal distribution (Column D). As these probabilities are dependant only on values from Column C, I'd like to list all the values from that column into another fragment of the sheet, say F6 and below, but each value should appear there only once, no matter how often it occurs in its original Column C (I listed them manually in Column F in the enclosed example). Moreover, if a new value appears in Column C, it should be also included in the new place and sorted in increasing order.

I have a workbook with multiple worksheets. Each worksheet corresponds to a certain store fixture estimate. Ont these sheets I have a specific cell where you can input how many fixtures of that type are to be used.
On that sheet also, is a range of cells (ex. Range("A65:F3340")) that needs to be copied to a new summations sheet of total hours to build the project.
If sheet 1 has 1 fixture - the macro should copy the range of cells only once.
Sheet 2 has 4 fixtures - tha macro should copy the same range four times appending each set of data tot eh end of the previous, And so on for each fixture sheet.

I have a spreadsheet with 2 sheets (Railcar Record & Switch) They both contain the same column names and will contain the same data. I want to do, is to have the user type in the Railcar # on Switch, and have all the information in the columns on this sheet fill in. As you can see and as previously mentioned, the information is all stored on the Rail Car Record, I just need to isolate certain information on the switch sheet.

I have data that I'm copying from a PDF and pasting in an excel sheet. The data that I need is mostly in groups of three rows, but sometimes there will be two extra rows under each data group. The two extra lines are extremely similar to two of the lines of data I need, so I can't think of a way to isolate them with a filter, and each document is 15,000 rows long, so doing it manually doesn't seem to be an option.
One of the lines of data that I need always starts with a dollar sign, so my thought is I could cut those so there would be a blank cell, and then I would just need a way to select the two rows immediately above every blank cell, leaving the two data rows I don't want below every blank cell.

I have a For loop, its an array with 5 file names in it. The loop checks for the files in the path, and if the file is there it places the file in the corresponding sheet in the workbook. If it is not, I get the option to browse for the file. Originally all 5 files were required, however now the requirements changed and only 4 are required the last file "byband.csv" is not required. So they want the option a message box telling the user the file is not required they can browse or keep going.
I worked out the second part but only by taking "byband.csv" out of the loop and writing a separate procedure for it, I wondered if in my original procedure I could isolate "byband" and if not found go to another part of the procedure. Basically, I needed to do the following:
If the file in the array byBand.csv is not found, Then:
vmbProceed = MsgBox(strFifthImportFile & strMessage, vbYesNo + vbQuestion, strTitle)
If vmbProceed = vbNo Then
Exit Sub
Else
go to Line 1 in the procedure below.
Code:
Sub import_Employee_Data()
'This is Step 1 when the frmDataImportSplash is activated.
'This procedure imports the byEmployee.csv sheet. The procedure checks if the file is
'in the same directory as the template. If the file is not there, a browser window appears to allow the user
'to browse for the missing file. A series of message boxes guide the user through the process and
'verifies that the user picked the right file. The user can cancel the import at any time.
Dim strPath As String
Dim strFirstImportFile As Variant
[Code] .........

I have four cells that contain text. All have connected check boxes with TRUE FALSE.
I need to be able to select anyone one of these cells with a check box, and have it's text appear in one separate cell eg: A1.
I have no issue connecting check boxes etc. I have no issue reproducing the text from any of these cells into multiple cells with a check box. But they have to be selectable and reproducing in one cell only (eg"A1").

I have a spreadsheet with 1,000 rows of data.
Each Cell in Column A has a different long text string.
I need to see which (if any) of 10 specific small text strings exist within each long text string. Depending on which small text string is found I want to return a 3 digit code. If no small text string is found I want to return "Not Found"
E.g.:
- Cell A2 contains "randomtext,randomtext,APPLE,randomntext"
- I want to see if Cell A2 contains any of the words APPLE, ORANGE, CARROT.
- I want to return "APP", "ORG", "CAR" or "Not Found"
Q: What is the most elegant way to accomplish this within a single formula that I could paste into each cell in Column B?

In the middle of one of my subroutines, my function sometimes hits an error (Subscript Out of Range: because it's looking for a string when it is not there).
If this error occurs, I want it to then look for a different string.
So I ONLY want this other string search to occur if I get an error at that point in the code. I've tried "On Error GoTo ....." but it's doing that GoTo everytime, even if no error occurs. I also can't put "Exit sub" before the On Error statement, because there is a lot of code after this point as well.

I'm trying to determine how much time our agents are spending for their lunch/breaks during 30 minute intervals. Range A8:A200 lists the agent's names, Range B8:B200 lists their lunch/break start times, Range C8:C200 lists their lunch/break end times, and Column E lists the times (8:00, 8:30, 9:00, etc.). If an agent starts their break at 10:57 (Column B) and ends at 11:10 (Column C), the value next to 10:30 (Column E) would have 0:03:00 and the value next to 11:00 would have 0:10:00. But would need to sum all the agents which took a break/lunch between 10:30-11:00, and 11:00-11:30.
