Is there a lookup function available that keeps the line breaks in from the lookup array? As shown in the example the Vlookup omits them, I have also tried with Index/Match, but its the same story.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to combine 2 cells that both have text on multiple lines separated by line breaks. I want to keep the formatting so that when both cells are combined, line one from cell 1 and line 1 from cell 2 are on the same line in the new combined cell. This is easy to do when there is only 1 line in each cell but how do you do this for cells with multiple lines? Here is an example of what I am trying to do:
A
B
C
1
First Name:
Last Name:
Address:
John
Smith
123 Harold Street
First Name: John
Last Name: Smith
Address: 123 Harold Street

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm dealing with an Excel file with many cells and line-breaks. I'd like to have a count next to each cell with the total line-breaks in it.
Example:
A1_trial_____3
___trial
___trial
B1_trial_____1
C1_trial_____2
___trial
Do you know which formula I should put in the cell for counting the line-breaks?
I am trying to split cells that have addresses in them into separate cells via writing a formula but am having no joy, i wonder if anyone could help me please.
What i need is to split cell A1 which contains an address i.e
Red Roofs
12 Chiltern walk
Tunbridge Wells
Kent
TN1 1PL
England
I need to put a formula in cells B1,C1,D1,E1,F1 and G1 tha splits each line of the address and puts it in the separate cells so it would look like:
B1 Red Roofs
C1 12 Chiltern walk
D1 Tunbridge Wells
E1 Kent
F1 Tn1 1pl
G1 England
On my userform, when a command button is clicked, then a textbox gets filled in the the answer. How do I insert line breaks in the answer? For instance:
AnswerPart1
AnswerPart2
Instead of: AnswerPart1AnswerPart2
I tried .value="AnswerPart1" & Chr(10) & "AnswerPart2" but then all the text box displays is AnswerPart1 (the symbol for paragraph) AnswerPart2. It doesn't actually break the line.
I want to erase all line breaks which I am not using from my work sheet. But still keeping the line breaks which has something written to it.
this as a example of one cell.
-------------------------------------------
- Example text number 1
- Example text number 2
- Example text number 3
- Example text number 4
- Example text number 5
---------------------------------------------
Using "Find & Replace" I got to replace the ones I want to erase with nothing, so its blank. Too bad the Excel doesn't replace the line breaks with it, so this is what I get.
-------------------------------------------
- Example text number 1
- Example text number 2
- Example text number 4
---------------------------------------------
The result which I want to have is:
-------------------------------------------
- Example text number 1
- Example text number 2
- Example text number 4

I know about the Clean Function but that function eases all the line breaks from the cell, which I dont want to.
If not that whould mean that I have to delete the line breaks by hand for hundreds of cells.
I have text with line breaks in a cell for example:
A1 =
Multiple
App1
App2
App3
App4
App5
When I reference this cell for example in B1 (=A1) the line break list merges together and adds a square (LBC) where the line break is meant to be as follows:
Multiple LBC App1 LBC App2 LBC App3 LBC
Is there a formula that can look at cell A1 and split the lines out so that both A1 and B1 look identical not merged together?
I 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.
I have an html table (3 columns) that has a decent amount of formatting in each column. It uses the <P> attribute for seperating content blocks in each cell along with Lists (LI's) and OL's. It breaks the content on each <P> and <LI> attribute and places each item on a seperate line. I want the content to all be in one cell. I've heard about using a css style to make it stay in the same cell, but it doesn't seem to do anything at all. I've tried:
HTML Code:
<style type="text/css">
br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}[code]....
any way to import this table into excel without all the line breaks?
I have multiple line breaks between text in a cell in excel. I wanted them replace without line breaks. Is there any option to replace this.

I manually enter data into inserted comments in a worksheet. Is it possible to run a macro that formats comments to align based on spaces? Ie
Entering "City","State" and "Amount" on row 1 in a comment and entering "Denver", "Colorado" and "5" in the second row would produce those words to align at a predetermined spacing (ie after every space the next word would start 10 characters over)

I have 2 sheets in a work book. Sheet 1 I paste information from an email into A4.
Sheet 2 gathers the information and places it in the cell formating the text so I can import it properly to another program.
I want to take notes that a person fills in (they fill out an online form with their personal information and sometimes leave comments, but not always) and paste this into Sheet 1. When I paste the comments into Sheet 1 it is pasted into mulitple cells. I want sheet 2 to format the text from these mulitples cells into one cell with spaces placed correctly ....
A database spits out a 42-column (A-AP) and 3,000+ row csv sheet of raw data with column headers. Frequently (due to improperly inputted information), there is a random line break in the middle of a cell, resulting in data that should be in columns Q (or R or S) - AP winding up in columns A thru Y (or Z or AA).
The only data that is consistent is in column AC.
Basically, I need to delete any blank rows and pull the incorrectly wrapped data up to complete the row where the split occurred.
Upon examination of the csv file in Word, there are instances of improperly placed paragraph marks (^p), which can easily be searched and replaced—in Word (by replacing each column A data with a unique character and the same data, deleting all paragraph marks and then replacing the unique character with a ^p.
Firstly, I'm not sure how to accomplish this same task in Excel and secondly, doing so brings the data into the proper rows but it doesn't fix the varying number of blank cells. Simply deleting blanks and shifting left doesn't work because the split often occurs in the middle of a cell which would require concatenating. But I would be ok deleting the latter part of the data so the columns align if need be.
In the attached example sheet, I highlighted the relevant data and what needs to be aligned. There is an ideal and an acceptable version in addition to the initial way the csv imports.

I'm trying to generate an email out of my spreadsheet and use cell values to populate the email.
The issue I'm having is once of the cells (D17) has multiple lines in it, created by using Alt + Enter; and this formatting doesn't appear in the html body of the email.

I have a spreadsheet that is by:
Purchase Date (column A)
Sales Date(column B)
Quantity(column C)
Name (column D)
Gain/loss (column E)
The spreadsheet is sorted by name in ascending order and also by quantity in ascending order.
Assuming row 1 is the heading. If D2 (name)= the same as another D cell and it's quantity i.e. C2 is negative, while the other D cell with the same name as D2 has a positive quantity i.e. corresponding C cell, and if the date in B2 is greater than date in column A of the other cell where it's D cell matches D2 and has a positive quantity, then in I would like "possible" to display in F2.
I have included an attachment to better illustrate what I have described above, because I am not sure if I am clear enough.
I've attached a sample of the data I'm using.
I have two spreadsheets (the samples for which I have shown side by side in Sheet 1 of the attached file).
Spreadsheet 1 is about 30,000 rows and too large for me to change the formatting and structure.
Spreadsheet 2 is the output I need and the format is required by other stakeholders.
In spreadsheet 1 I want to sum quantity in stock for Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3 for each product and allocate it to spreadsheet 2 according to the month in which the product expires. For example, there will be a total of 92 units of product 413302 which will expire in Nov, 2014. Therefore I want 92 to be placed in cell N6 of Spreadsheet 2.
Unfortunately the product number is not unique - there are multiple sub products in spreadsheet 1 but they all have the same quantities of stock. The sub products are referenced in other parts of the report so I can't consolidate by Product Number. This also prevents me from using the SUMIFS function as it will duplicate the number found in the sub products.
What I need, perhaps in a combination of functions, is to find the first instance of product 413302 in Spreadsheet 1 that is expiring in Nov 14, sum the product types and give the result in cell N6 of Spreadsheet 2.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm at an impass and need some help please. I'm trying to create a spreadsheet that will look up UNSORTED data in Column A and return the value of the corresponding Row data in the adjacent column. Can this be done? It is my understanding that LOOKUP functions only work with sorted, ascending data, but this is not possible with the data I'm trying to analyze.
(eg. COLUMN A - contains unsorted list of names
COLUMN B - contains numbers indicating skill level of the person in the next column
I need the formula to look at column A, pick out "Joe Smith" and return the number value from COLUMN B)
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 RelatedWhat I would like to do is have a master workbook that I can import different .csv files into as a new worksheet. Then calculations will be run on the values that are imported. My goal is to select a column and have corresponding list update the values. After that formulas will run on the calculations. I have got the import csv file down using VBA. The problem I was running into was with the Data Validation. Since I was overwriting my existing sheet I would get a #REF error because the link was broken. So I have worked my way around this for the list using the OFFSETSHEET Function:
VB:
Function SHEETOFFSET(offset, Ref)
[COLOR=#0000ff] ' Returns cell contents at Ref, in sheet offset[/COLOR]
Application.Volatile
With Application.Caller.Parent
SHEETOFFSET = .Parent.Sheets(.Index + offset) _
.Range(Ref.Address).Value
End With
End Function
This returns a value to a row in my mater sheet and I reference this for the data validation list.
However, I get the same problem when working with the HLookup function, the #REF error occurs. So far the only way I have figured out to work around this is to create another sheet that dynamically updates its values using the same OFFSETSHEET function, and my master sheet then references it.
I've got an indexmatch that works great
=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(accountstaff,MATCH(B$20,INDEX(accountstaff,,1),0),MATCH($ A55,INDEX(accountstaff,1,),0))),0,INDEX(accountstaff,MATCH(B$20,INDEX(accou ntstaff,,1),0),MATCH($A55,INDEX(accountstaff,1,),0)))
But I need to incorporate IF statement based on varying levels of revenue and think VBA will be less cumbersome, but don't know how to combine else if and index match.
I am trying to accomplish this:
IF B$20 (which is a dollar amount is = X, then index, match....
IF B$20 is > Y but < Z, then index, match...
I have a sheet listing comission rate eg. sales less than $200, the rate is
..5%, less than 300, the rate is 1%..etc.
Then i have another table showing different sales value of different workers. How do i find the commission rate per worker using lookup functions??
I have a range of cells (say A1:D8).
I wanna find the address (say $B$2) of the minimum value in that range.
This command does it but it only works on a column. it does not accept a range spanning more than one column.
=CELL("address",INDEX(B2:B7,MATCH(MIN(B2:B7),B2:B7,0)))
this will tell me the address of the minimum value.. but in a column... I need a range of many columns.
So I tried converting things to a Table.. but it never worked. basically the MATCH command is my problem. It only accepts single-column-ed ranges.
I wish to create a Look up that looks at a range of cells on the same line Eg C6:G6
Then looks at a different tab and completes the look up.
E.g.
TCR!A:B,2,FALSE
No within the cells C6:G6 i want the formula to only use the highest match
E.g.
C D E F G
070031070031#N/A#N/A070
#N/A#N/A#N/A#N/A070
So in the first line i want the result to use the number 070031 and in the second example i want it to use 070 for the look up.
I have a spreadsheet, in which I need to lookup invoice numbers from a raw data file with ~5,000 line items on a daily basis. The lookup is based on two criteria searches (1) search product type (2) search product make. In this example, I have 4 product types:
1 car
2 truck
3 boat
4 motorcycle
For this example I want to search invoices; (1) first search for cars only (2) search for product make. In my attached example, the first item (cell E2) would return invoice number 7147875-FRD from the raw data file. The second item (cell E3) would return invoice number 7147877-NSN.
I need to remove all existing page breaks in a document and add a page break every 72 rows. I've tried some similar codes from this forum with other functions that I don't need in it.

I have pulled various data points from a pivot table into a summary.
My pivot table is located on a tab entitled "Pivots - All".
My summary tab is entitled "Open Summary".
My chart tab is entitled "Open Charts".
The formula within the summary cell that is pulling from the pivot equals
=GETPIVOTDATA("Active Y/N",'Pivots - All'!$A$70,"Active Y/N","Yes","Leader","Eurich","Expected Tenure",4)
I have found ways to NOT display the zero values in the summary tab, but the column chart (which is set to use value as the data labels, continues to pull the zeroes in the chart.
Is there a way around this besides using the "clear all" within the summary? I refresh this data weekly and don't want to have to keep redirecting the cells in the summary to the pivot.
