Macro To Move Text
Oct 14, 2009
I am trying to create a macro to do the following (Microsoft Excel 2002 SP3):
1 - Select the text from the active/selected cell (i.e. B1)
2 - Cut the text from B1
3 - Move to the cell directly above the active/selected cell (i.e. A1)
4 - Add a space to the end of whatever text is in A1
5 - Paste the contents that were cut from B1 after the text and space in A1
6 - Delete the row where the text was cut from (i.e. entire row B)
I have never written code for macro's before, only done recording, but just can't seem to get this sequence to work .

I have a macro which refreshes a query when the spreadsheet is opened. This works fine when online.
However, if the user is not online, the query is unable to refresh and the macro just hangs.
Is there a code which will enable me to say " if unable to refresh then move on to the next line"?
here's the code below.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Houselist").Activate
Selection.QueryTable.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
Sheets("Front").Select
Range("A1").Select
End Sub

I inherited a spreadsheet from someone who knows nothing of excel, its massive and I'm trying to organize it into an actual spreadsheet instead of some weird note taking program.
Is there an easy way to take a couple of Cells worth of text and move into one cell combined.
I.e.
This is
just one
Example
Above would be one example, there are 3 cells used to input one sentence... I want to move those to one cell to read
This is just one example
There are also cells with Data Separated by a "/" is there a way to separate that quickly without manually typing or reformatting my wrists are starting to hurt

I have an Excel sheet with several columns of data, each containing the link to a website. To the far right of this data, I have a column called "Official Source" in which I'd like to copy over any website links containing the phrase "sec.gov" (if there are any, if not than leave the cell blank).
For example, if I have the following data in my sheet:
Column A Column B Column C
[URL].... [URL].... sec.gov/Ar
Than I would want the last source to move to column D -
Column A Column B Column C Column D
[URL].... [URL].... sec.gov/Ar
how to do this?

I am working on a macro and, as part of it, I would like to look at column H of my spreadshet. If the wording in any cell in column H begins with the word, "total" I would like the cell contents of the cell in column G and up one to be dropped down one. Here is an example:
Let's say that the words "total money" is found in cell H2. I would like the cell contents of cell G1 to be moved to G2, making boths cell side-by-side having text in them - G2 and H2.

Sheet1
Removed screen shots - Please DO NOT use actual personal information, sample data only! - Moderator
Some of the people on this list have a second name entry on the line below their first name entry. ALL of the people on the list have an Address2 on the line below their Address1.
How would I move the second name entry into the cell next to the first name entry, and then concatenate them, and then also move the Address2 entry into the cell next to Address1 (but not concatenate these)?
Like this:

In a large database with a large portion of cells that contains a flag to the left of a number "<LD 2.0" what would be the quickest way to move the flag to the left of the number so that it reads "2.0 <LD". This seems like it should be simple to do. I would prefer not to have to use a second cell and formula to do the modification if that makes sense. I'd rather do a "Find and Replace" if possible.

There are basically four fields of text (date, trans. #, merchant, $ amount) all in one cell that I would like to have in 4 separate columns without having to cut-paste, cut-paste, cut-paste. Is it possible for me to break this information up quickly into 4 separtate columns? I have about 400 lines of text like this and would like to find a faster way to do it.

I have a column which contains a series of alphanumeric characters some start with the alpha characters and others end with them.
As an example ABS1234, 1234ABS, 12k34AB needs to be ABS1234, ABS1234, AB12k34. The number of alpha characters at the end will be a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 3. Is there some way that I can move the Alpha characters, at the end, so that they are always at the beginning of the string?

I have some macros that will look for a certain item and then move it somewhere else on the spreadsheet. However, I can't seem to get the code right to skip over the section if the text is not found. I assume it would be easiest to do it with error handling, but the attempts I've made haven't worked.
the macro will search for the text "Name" and move everything under that column elsewhere; then it will do the same for "Date." But currently, if "Name" is not found anywhere on the spreadheet, it will cause an error and ask to end or debug.

I have a text string in a cell. it is comprised of a series of numbers and text. i would like to " cut" the first part of the string starting from the first space and paste in the cell to the left. For example.
range("b11") has the following: "This is my example"
I would like to perform the following:
range ("A11") would equal "This"
Range ("b11") would equal "is my example"
(note the space has been completly removed as well)

I am importing a 20 character text string (from a barcode scanner) to H2. I need to send that data to the next unused row in Column A (after insuring that no matching text currently exists in Column A-no action taken if matching data is found). I can provide a copy of the sheet, along with a description of the project.

I download our monthly bank transactions (.csv). I have a workbook with sheets named for each creditor or expense.
I would like move each row, based on the specific word in a cell row, to the specific worksheet.
Here are some typical transactions in the Description column:
Some are specific:
1/7/2008ACH WEB-SINGLE 9085863 VONAGE AMERICA VONAGE
“Moved to the Vonage worksheet.”
Others are not so obvious:
2/1/2008CHECK CARD PURCHASE XXXXX4636 BOSTON MARKET #0450 GREENSBURG PA
“Moved to the Eat Out worksheet.”
2/21/2008CHECK CARD PURCHASE XXXXX4636 ASPCAPS XXXXX0028 MD
“Moved to the ASPCAPS worksheet.”
2/19/2007POS PURCHASE POS54309901 0014264 PITTSBURGH ST GREENSBURG PA
“Moved to the Grocery worksheet.”
I was able to find the following while during a Search:
Move Cells Containing Specific Word In Column To New Sheet
The question was answered, in addition to Dave Hawley, by Bill Rockenbach who inserted the following code - “Sub FindWord()”
Option Explicit
Sub FindWord()
Dim Sentences
Dim Word As String
Dim i As Long
Dim iWordPos As Integer
Dim lRow As Long
Dim sWord As String
If this is a possibility for what I'm looking for, I’m not sure how to implement it into my situation.

I am trying to have rows moved from (Schedule) to (Complete) in the attached workbook. The criteria to have the row moved would be the user-selected "Status" list changing to "COMPLETE" in Column G.
I would like to have the row cut and deleted from Sheet4 (Schedule) once "COMPLETE" is selected from the list in Column G with rows below moving up. The row would then be inserted into Sheet2 (Complete) at the top of the list (Row 7) and rows would move down below the new entry. I would also like to have the formatting remain uniform (every other row fill)

I need a macro that I can assign to a button so that it will jump the screen to a particular cell. I want it to select the cell in a chosen column in the same row as the cursor already was. So, if I'm in M10 and I hit the AK button, it'll jump to AK10. If I'm in F54 and I hit the AK button it'll jump to AK54.

I've been using the record macro function to accomplish a lot of my formatting tasks for my work reports.
I'm running into a snag that I'm not sure how to fix. Essentially I want the program to recognized the term "Grand Total" and the cell to the right of it. Then I want those two cells to be moved to the far left.
The # of rows will continuously change but he column shouldn't change.
I've tried naming the cell selection to have it moved but I can't seem to make it work.
When I use the record macro function and do a CTRL F search for "grand total", excel doesn't seem to recognize that I want that cell and the cell to the right to be the ones to move. Instead, whatever row of cells I create the macro with, it wants to duplicate the move with the same exact cell.

Can I improve the move to specify it to place the graph in a certain

I have a workbook with 52 worksheets.
6 are hidden, 46 are visible.
I am trying to move a worksheet to the end of the workbook and rename as the next sheet.
It works the first time I run it (it renames the worksheet to Client51, the new last worksheet) but after that it gives me a 1004 error 'cannot rename a sheet to the same name as another sheet...."
Here is the macro I am using:
Sub rename_client()
Dim NewName As String
ActiveSheet.Move Before:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
NewName = "Client" & Sheets.Count - 2
ActiveSheet.Name = NewName
End Sub

I have a workbook with two worksheets in it. The first "TO DO" and the second "Completed". In "TO DO", I have rows of tasks starting in row 4 (row 3 is my header), going to 200. What I'd like to have happen is when I put a "C" in column C, it moves the entire row to the "Completed" worksheet, greys it out and removes it from the "TO DO" worksheet. Then if I remove the "C" from the "Completed" worksheet, it moves it back to the bottom of the list. I already have a macro to resort it based on "priority" in column E.
