I have an excel workbook with 60 sheets (each contain data in the same categories and in the same column locations, just different information on each sheet). What would the VBA code look like if I wanted to manually enter the find and replace values and perform the function (find and replace) across multiple sheets in the workbook?
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.
I need to recode 30+ files the have the old account numbers and I need to replace them with new codes ie
Old New 123456 10_1240 256789 12_1130 789123 15_1122
I have an excel spreadsheet which contains some 800 accounts in the format above showing old account number in column A and the new account number in column B. How would I write the VBA code to search all files in a specified folder search all rows in column E and find/replace using my spreadsheet containing the mapping details as above? or in the very least just be able to run a macro to replace all the old codes in an individual spreadsheet.
I want to have a macro in excel where it will do a simple find and replace, except I want it to search for more than one word and replace it with one eg, I want it to look for any month and replace it with january.
I have been put together some simple coding to find and replace a value (1) that i have obtained from a pivot table. My aim was to replace any "1" with the column header. The reason for this is that the cell(s) will be used in a VLookup at a late stage.
My problem is that I have the code to work for a single cell, but I want it to work for multiple columns so I don not have to create multiple macros.
I need to go from Column C to AW. I have a total row at the end - hence why I am using 'Step - 1'.
Code: Sub FindReplace() Dim i, lRow Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
I currently have two lists I am working with. One is a big mix of many different names, names which all need to be replaced.
I have another list which has all of these original names included in one column and the names which should replace those names in the column next to it.
Is there a way to go down this list and have excel find and replace every name in the sheet with its corresponding name without having to do it manually over and over?
say that i have alist of data in "A2:A", which are a string file (text) and i want to rename each data to a certain name that defined in range "B1:B2" (String file too).
For Example: for range C2 = S16e C3 = 16/E C4 = 18W C5 = Site18 w
& The target name is to be: B1=16E B2=18W
For case above, i need to replace C2&C3 in to 16E, while C4&C5 to be 18W.
I have a list of cell entries that I want to find and replace with different text or a number. My code below is 4 of them. I am trying to do the replace over 3 different sheets at the same time but I am only changing the 1st sheet with my efforts.
I have an Excel file with multiple sheets and I want to find and replace matching cell data on the same row across all of the sheets. For example, I have two columns, Column A and Column C and 10 sheets. I want to only replace the content in Column A if text matches both Column A and Column C on the same row. So, I want to be able to search for the following data across all sheets:
Column A = "car" Column C = "yellow"
If both "car" and "yellow" are found in Column A and Column C on the same row, then replace "car" in Column A with "truck".
Is there a way to do this automatically as I have few hundred to find and replace?
So I have a list of organizations in Column A, with multiple names (anywhere from 0 to 50 names) for each org. in Column B.
Org Names Company A Brown, Jones, Smith, West
[Code]...
I want to do a find and replace for all of Column B, where all the names are replaced with their respective color values. If possible, I'd like this to all happen with the individual cells (so for example, B3 might go from "Brown, Jones, Smith" to "Red, Red, Blue").
If that's not possible, I could divide all the names into individual cells and then find and replace.
I have a workbook (materials forecasting) that automatically pulls from another workbook (production schedule).
The materials forecasting workbooks are named in regards to the current Monday (ie 02-02-09.xls, 02-09-09.xls, etc). The production schedules are named in accordance with the financial periods and weeks, ie PD1WK1.xls, PD1WK2.xls, PD1WK3.xls, PD1WK4.xls, PD2WK1.xls, etc
The materials forecasting sheet looks two weeks out.
EXAMPLE (pretend that today is the first day of PD1WK1)
Cell C1 will reference PD1WK1.xls Cell C2 will reference PD1WK2.xls
Each week I copy the old materials forecasting sheet and rename it to the current week (ie I take 02-02-09.xls and rename it to 02-09-09.xls). I have a bunch of macros set up to move my deliveries up a week and what not. One macro I would like to set up, however, is that by putting a value in a cell the find and replace macro will work.
EXAMPLE Cell A1 will reference PD1WK2.xls Cell A2 will reference PD1WK3.xls Cell C1 will reference PD1WK1.xls Cell C2 will reference PD1WK2.xls
Then I would have the macro find all instances of whatever value is in cell C2 and replace it with whatever value is in cell A2. Then likewise fore C1 and A1 respectively. (If you think about what I am doing here... all I am doing is moving the schedule up one week so that I am forecasting using the right schedule).
I can manually do this but I would prefer a macro based on a simple user input for when people fill in for me.
I have a column of about 10,000 lines which contains a description Sheet 1 Column B. On another sheet (2) I have about 200 lines of abbrevations. In coulmn A2 is the full name, and column b is the Abbrevation. I would like to create a macro that would go down the list in A2 Sheet 2, go to Sheet 1 B find that word and replace it with Sheet 2 B2 abbrevation. Is there a way to do that?

There are 1000's of XML tag with values.. i want a macro which should replace all the tags(the value which is in between angel brackets should only be removed and angel bracekst also should be removed) with or without space and tag value should remain unchanged.
I had written a macro about two years ago that replaced longer company names with common abbreviations. I store it in Personal.xls, and it has been relatively fast (2-5 sec for most projects with < 2000 rows). However, I tried it on a file with 15,000 rows, and it choked Excel - i.e. it wouldn't run and had to be force quite (Excel XP on Windows 2000).
Here is a portion of the macro (I have about 40 companies that need to be abbreviated, names here have been simplified to protect the guilty ). I stepped through a couple of these lines to see what would happen, and each line took at least 1-2 min.
I'm not sure what type of function is needed for what I'm describing below. I'm thinking it is a script or macro? I don't know anything about writing scripts or macros and I am quite new to excel.
I'm trying to learn chinese and am making chinese flashcards for myself.
The fact that some of the cells have chinese characters probably doesn't matter, but I just want to be thorough in my description....
This macro finds and replaces multiple values found on another sheet. however, it does not only take the exact value, also others. Example:
If i want to change "Example 1", "Example 2", ... "Example 10" into "One", "two", etc. Example 10 then changes into "One 0" because it changes the Example 1 (without the 0 in 10) into One. Is there any way to alter this (or do you have another macro to replace multiple values?
It makes the replacements up to line 37, then stops. If you then delete the first 37 rows and re-run the macro, it again performs replacements, but only on the next 37 rows.
way to find/ replace some null values in a range of selected cells in a column. I would like to select a first and last cell, and replace the value -999.25 with the average of the cells that are above and below it. If there are more than one -999.25 cells, I would like to do the same thing with the average of the cells that above and below the first and last -999.25.
I would also like the same macro to replace any value that is over 200 with the average of the cells above and below it...
I have two worksheets in two separate workbooks. One contains only two columns - a list of codes and the corresponding name of an institution. The other workbook contains a column with the codes. I want to replace the codes in the second workbook with the names from the first workbook.
I found this code on [url] here: Find & Replace macro
Sub DoIt() Dim rRange As Range, rCell As Range
On Error Resume Next With Workbooks("Personal.xls") Set rRange = .Sheets(1).Range("A1", .Sheet1.Range("B65536").End(xlUp)) End With For Each rCell In rRange.Columns(1).Cells Selection.Replace What:=rCell, Replacement:=rCell(1, 2), _ LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False Next rCell On Error Resume Next End Sub
This is exactly what I need, but like the last person who asked about it, I can't get it to work. I've gone through Dave's instructions a number of times, and now I'm stumped.
I have a excel which contains 5 columns in which 5th column data cells has to be replaced with another set of data which have relationship with other 4 columns data.
I want to have a macro that will look at a few cells say A1 & A2 and then use the contents of the cells say 1Q07 & 2Q07 respectively to do a find and replace find 1Q07 and replace it with 2Q07. I want it to use the contents of the cell and not just the text because the contents of the cell will change each time used. I tride to do it here but I dont have it yet. It doesnt seem to pass the value to the variable and the variable doesnt seem to do the find and replace.
