What I a trying to do is I have a sheet with 3 pages and am using excel auto complete to change data in my cells to save typing out every time. for example if I type 22.. in sheet 1 cell a1 and tab away, it replaces it with an address and post code stored in auto complete. is it possible to store my info in another sheet, if it matches the 22.. in say sheet 3 replace it with the text in the next cell to the right
View 5 Replieslooking up a value in a table.
So I have this value on one worksheet: Example 1
Now, I have a table on the second worksheet with a bunch of id's in list of 1-100. Now, each product has one of those id's and also has a product name.
So, right now, I am trying to figure out what the product name would be if my id specified is a valid id in the table on worksheet 2. Now, if the specified id isn't a valid id in the table (for example 105) I need the cell the say, "No Product".
Here is my if function: =IF(what do I put here,VLOOKUP($A$1,Table1,2), "Product Not Found")
So what do I put for the logical test to find out if the id is a valid id in the table that i'm looking up the id's.
The bottom line: If you get an error like #Value! or #N/A, or any of those types of errors, how can you rename the cell so say something else instead of that.
I need a macro that will look for a specific text string in the tab names of the workbook and replace it with a new specified text string (leaving the rest of the existing tab names). In other words, a simple find/replace but applied to all tab names in the workbook rather than cells. Ideally, I'd like it to pop up something and ask for the text to find and the text to replace it with, so I don't have to edit the macro itself each time I want to use it, but editing the macro each time is fine. Either way will be wonderful.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have some quality information that is stored in a single .txt format. All the information for several different parts are stored in the same file "merge__chr.txt I then have a single excel file for each different part. I need to be able to use a macro to extract the data from the txt file and fill in the excel file based on 3 criteria.
Part #
Serial #
Characteristic #
The part # is always in cell "B4" of the excel file, and the first column of the .txt file The Serial # is variable, but will always be in column B (starting at row 11 and down) of the excel file, and the second column of the .txt file The Characteristic # will always be in row #7 (starting at column D and right) of the excel file, and is in the 3rd column of the .txt file.
I need this to copy the information from the 6th column of the .txt file and store it in the cell where the characteristic and serial # meet. I only need to be able to do this for 1 serial # at a time. When the current serial # is selected, I would like to use a button to fill in all the information for all Characteristics of that part. I attached a sample set of data with "QA-PRINT" as the Part #.

Trying to repeat a 550 or so character statement with a find/replace however I am getting type mismatch errors. When I use a smaller message in the "replace" it works.
I need it to post a message exactly as long as what I have in there. How do I get it to work?
I have a worksheet with following values:
A
B
C
1
Shorts
75
[Code]...
Also I have a Userform with 2 ComboBoxes named "ComboBox1" and "ComboBox2". Values in ComboBox1 is "Pull my pants", "Eat my shorts", "Socks for everyone".
What I would like to do is to search though column A and look for any of these textstrings in my selection in ComboBox1 and return the value from column B in column C.
Example: "Pull my pants" is selected in ComboBox1 then the value "pants" should be found in column A and value in column B (25) should be entered in cell C2.
I am fairly new to VBA and have spend hours searching Google and found some formulas like InStr and VLookup. My problem is that I am not sure if these statements will do the job and how to combine them.
I have a Workbook(wb1) that pulls information based off of IF(and( and vlookups from multiple other workbooks(wb2 thru wb12). Is there a way the member typing in wb2 - wb12 able to change the Tab name one each sheet? Since the formulas i use use the tab name on the sheets for referencing. I'm hoping to do the example with out any user input.
Example ....
I have multiple IF functions in a formula and found out that the maximum allowed is 7 and should use Lookup instead. The formula is to calculate the Present Value of an amount with the corresponding interest rates and number of days left.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have a list of typed information (see attached) in which we would like to remove some words and simply replace with a space "". In addition to this: Unfortunately, folks tend to mistype or misspell words, add extra digits, etc, and for those mistakes we would like to replace them with corrections. Therefore, for this problem, we have a Replacement Table and the Subject Data, an example of which is shown in the attachment. I have posted a slightly similar problem on Ozgrid recently:
Replace Words In Cell Matching Those In A List
and in that link, the following UDF was proposed:
Function ReplaceIfInList(rList As Range, rCell As Range, _
strReplacement As String) As String
Dim rLoop As Range
If rCell = "" Then Exit Function
For Each rLoop In rList
If ReplaceIfInList = vbNullString Then
ReplaceIfInList = Replace(rCell, rLoop, strReplacement)
Else
ReplaceIfInList = Replace(ReplaceIfInList, rLoop, strReplacement)
End If
Next rLoop
End Function
This worked great, but at the time i posted this, I did not have the foresight to anticipate the flexibility in what the replacement text would be (the above code always replaces with a ""). THIS new Post is asking the following:
Is there a way to define (or modify the above) User Defined Formula that will analyze the words typed in a cell, which are typically separated by spaces (or on accident, multiple spaces), and essentially use the Replacement Table as a reference for what word to replace with?
In a sheet (4) I have a pivot refreshed by a VBA macro code. Since I have defined a Chart on this pivot, I need to copy this pivot in a new sheet to avoid to reduce rows using a filter of the Chart. I copy this pivot using this VBA code
Sheet4.Select
Sheet4.Copy After:=Sheet2
I have e new sheet with a number Sheet(n) not equal to maximum sheet number +1
For a new run of the VBA macro I need to delete this sheet
Sheets(n).Select where (n) is not = maximum sheet number +1
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Delete
Then I need to avoid the message box where I need to confirm to delete the sheet because the sheet is not empty.
Is there a solution to copy a pivot in a new sheet replacing the previous pivot and vithout changing the number of the sheet?
I have two sheets in my workbook: One containing names with French and other European characters, the other containing a list of ISO entities for these characters, like these:

#230
I need to replace these characters in Sheet 1 with the equivalent ISO entity from Sheet2 and print the value into the same cell in Sheet1.
I have an existing Cash Flow Report that has a column of abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title where each cell contains a unique three lettered/numbered amount of characters (Example: 200). These three abbreviated character cells are specific and relate to their full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title (Example: WBS DWRRI-BW066-200).
In my attached excel model (Find, Locate, and Align WBS Elements to Cash Flow Report.xlsx), I need a formula for the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru B11 that will look at the abbreviated three lettered/numbered (WBS Element) titles in cells C3 thru C11, then search and recognize its unique counterpart contained in the, "SAP WBS Elements Export" sheet and return this full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title to the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with several columns. I need a formula to search column D only and each time a specific location is identified to replace that location with alternate text. Example (ORIGNAL TEXT):
Column Dtext to text help.xlsx

BAT
BUG
I need to search that listing and each time the word BIRD is mentioned have it replaced with FEATHERS and each time DOG is listed have it replaced with TAILS Final result would look like:
FEATHERS
FISH
TAILS
BAT

All other text should stay the same and replacement text should appear in the cell of the text it is replacing. This is a sheet used by multiple people several times a day and so the Find/Replace option really won't work.
Have working on this for at least 6 months and it just isn't going to happen for me. I thought I could use a Conditional format, but that is producing no results either.
Structure:
I have a worksheet with the cells in one of the columns having html tags inside of each cell.
The tags vary by location within the cell and there are anywhere from 0-10 tags per cell.
Column A is the text string. Inside these cells are the tags. The tags are of form
<A href="/mortgagecenter/article_alias">
The
<A href="/mortgagecenter/
and
">
parts are true for every instance of this string....
....article_alias is a variable per each string. I have columns B and C which are the aricle_alias names and article_ID's, respectively.
What I am trying to do:
From the [quote]<A href="/mortgagecenter/article_alias">[quote]
I would need to replace the
article_alias
portion with
ArticleID&"-"&article_alias
Trying to Find a specific word and Replace with another within a textbox ( created from the drawing tool, as well as the control toolbar) The textboxes contain loads of text information.
as an example
The word "Apple" to be replaced with "Orange"
I came across this code from the archives (compliments of Dave Hawley)
Sub ReplaceTextBoxText()
Dim sTextBox As Shape
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
Set wSheet = Sheets.Add()
For Each sTextBox In Sheet1.Shapes
I've tried several variations with no results. (perhaps it's to extensive for my modest needs)
In my workbook I have multiple sheets but I'm attaching a very simple workbook to demonstrate what I'm trying to accomplish. In my "Lookup" tab/sheet. I want to have known Latitude and Longitude data that will exist in columns A&B. Columns C & D will have address numbers and Street Name. I would like my lookup formula to find the longitude and latitude data from my "lookup" sheet, when the matching address information is typed in, in my 2009 sheet. I have to keep the street numerics and street name separate on this worksheet as well. I believe I'll need two separate lookup formulas as I need these formulas to start in cell G4 & H4 in my "GeoCoding1" sheet. Is it possible to have four columns of data to be viewed in a lookup formula? I tried this formula in cell G4 (GeoCoding1 sheet)
View 3 Replies View Relatedi have two sheets, one to display results (Reults tab) & the other tab containing the data (Data tab)
what i am trying to do is some how create a search function and have a forumula which contains a LIKE function that looks up the data table
RANGE = Data!A2:K255
the search needs to lookup the primary column Data!B2:B255 ... if any results are found .. show them on the results tab.. and if multiple results are found, display those as well.. (in either instance, the whole row of information in respect to the results need to be dislayed and hopefully no duplicates are found .. eg, Data!A:K of a hit)
is there a formula that can achieve this? oh, the search is TEXT based and there should be no empty cells within the dataset
after some MASSIVE googling, i have stumbled accross this
B1 = Search box (txt field)
A6 (which will be a hidden column) contains =MATCH($B$1,Data!A2:A255,0). this formula provides the first instance of the result and provides the row number
A7 contains =MATCH($B$1,OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6+1,0,8-(A6+1),1),0)+A6.
this is supposed to look for the next row number which contains a match and provide that row number
and througout my other columns, i have
B6=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,1)
B7=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,2)
B8=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,3)
and so on
2 things i cannot recitify..
1, the match has to be EXACT ... unfortunately i cannot use exact .. needs to be LIKE .. eg, i cant use the search word "boat" as the range of data has "boats"
2, it comes up with multile .. irrelevent results.
see attached workbook. I want VBA to insert an index/match forumla on sheet 1 to lookup a value from sheet 2. I don't want it to specify a range though. I want VBA to look to see if there is data above and to the left of the cell and if it is true insert the index/match formula. Then it won't matter what row or column I put the headings in.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am importing content control information in a word file into excel by using a macro in excel. The information is coming across nicely but when the information about a checkbox comes across, in excel, that's what you see, a checkbox (☐ or ☒). Is there any way (formula or vba) to replace all the checkboxes with a yes or a no?
I wrote a formula that works:
Code:
=IF(G8="☒","YeS","nO")
But this will add this information to a new column and I would like to replace the information in the existing column (the form has about 200 checkboxes) and I don't want to add a bunch of new columns.
I also toyed with VBA:
Code:
Range("G1:G100").Replace "&", "No"

how to write a search and replace macro, but instead of writing:

Cell H1 has a variable string of references for eg

Just to add another complication to the mix, there may be 2 "FXVA" references in the string and i want to get both (these can be in the same string so FXVB123456FXEL123456 - but this might not happen regularly.
