Match Several Key Words To Display Text

Jun 22, 2008

I have three worksheets with the first worksheet having several dropdown boxes containing key words.

The second worksheet has three cells with different combinations of the key words and a fourth cell with equipment names. There are nearly one hundred entries in this format.

What I am trying to do is on the third worksheet to display the equipment name for which the three key words from the second worksheet match the user selected key words from the first worksheet.

Match Words To A String Using VLookup

May 10, 2014

Take a look at the attached workbook.

Tab 'Internal' is an example of our internal customers and how much they spent with us.
Tab 'External' is a list of companies in our area that we could do business with, it came from a marketing firm. Columns B:J contain my formulas. B is my lookup.

I need to match the two sheets together and pull the dollars spent from Internal to External. The problem is that the marketing firm did not use the same naming conventions that are in our systems. This means a simple Vlookup will not work.

Here is what I did so far: used VBA and formulas to break apart the company names in External, then using a modified Vlookup to match the words to the names in Internal. My accuracy rate is less than 1%.

Flag Partial Match Where Cells Contain Key Words

Jun 2, 2008

I have a list of customer names. These include one-off customers and companies. Unfortunately, they are not always keyed correctly and in the same format. What I need to be able to do is flag any companies. These will be those that contain key words, such as Ltd, Ltd., Limited, PLC, & Co, & Sons and so on.

My customer list may look like this:

1. Bill Jones & Son
2. Mr B Smith
3. Posh Homes Ltd
4. Posh Homes Limited
5. Mr A Singh
6. Bill Jones & Sons

I then need to flag no.'s 1, 3, 4 and 6 as Companies while 2 and 5 are flagged as non-company.

Excel 2003 :: Take Specific Text From Cell And Copy It In New One (Text And / Or Words Position Varies)

Jan 17, 2013

I'm having a 6000+ records, (contacts DB) exported in Excel 2003 format from MS Outlook.

Except the "First" and "LastName", all other contact elements are in the field "Notes" (which is the BZ column according to the exported outlook layout) multiplied by 6469 (records in total)

Useful information are included !!!

I'll give an example of a record...

Column: BZ, Row: 543 says --> "2110000000-6989000000, 1TOK_TER:17-11-010(25 DAYS LESS),
KATERINA 25 (MANTAS KALNNNNN_HYPERTENSION)1000-150, W:95_105, , HR THE 16wks_US NEFRON OK,
NT OK_B EPIP OK(GOLF BALL)_KAMPILI ORIAKI(DIAITA)_DOPPLER OK, O+,TEST OK(TOX_), , , , , , "

Now, I want every time to take the part of the text says "TER:something..." (part of which is date, but not every time with the known format dd-mm-yyyy, as you see here is yyy, followed by something else, with parenthesis here and maybe more data) and copy it in a new cell..., e.g:CO Column, same Row...

Above and every field which by the way is formatted as General (and it is text mainly) are made by merging older excel fields where data laid here and there, that's why you see the commas...with the method of a module with the following code:

Function MyMerge(Rng As Range)
For Each Cell In Rng
Temp = Temp & Cell.Value & ", "
Next Cell
Temp = Mid(Temp, 1, Len(Temp) - 2)
MyMerge = Temp
End Function

Note1:Records with the above string (TER:dd-mm-yyy) are 771 from 6469.
Note2: As an alternative solution I can see an extraction of the TER:dd-mm-yyy string and the copy in a new place, like the:CO Column, same Row...

Finding 2 Or 3 Words In Text?

Mar 7, 2012

I need to find from the second word until just before a numeric number.

Thus the text in Column H is as follow:

COLUMN H

1234234 My name is John 12 Jul
34243 I am 10 years old 23 Feb
4345345 Peter 23 Jan

So, I need the text in RED extracted only. All words are seperated by spaces. It will always start from the second word and continues until it finds the first number. All words between these must be extracted.

My formula below is to extract the 1st Word, thus all I need is the formula for the above situation and replace the one below with it.

a.Formula = "=Left(h2,find("" "",h2)-1)"

Searching Text In Cells For Words

Mar 17, 2008

I have a column that is filled with text of varying lengths and I'd like to search through each cell in that column looking for a specific word or words. Unfortunately the length of the text varys greatly between each cell and there is very little uniformity so I need to be able to search through the entire entry in each cell and then highlight that row if a specific word or words are found.

I'd also like to be able to add a number "1" in another column on the same row if the search finds a word or words. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If the cell only contains the exact word or string I'm looking for then it's easy but I can't figure out how to search through text in a cell that contains more than I'm looking for.

example: Lets say I'm loooking for "caught fire"
column Q contains:
1 "The computer caught fire after several hours"
2 "A house on the hill caught fire"

If "caught fire" exists in the cell being checked, then highlight the row and put a 1 in a specific column, lets say J.

Combinations/Permutations Of Words/Text

Apr 23, 2008

I'm trying to figure out how to generate all combinations from a list
of N values in a column, let's say column A. In particular, I want to have all combinations of 2 values, 3 values, 4, ... up to 7 values. To give an example: Let's assume I have a list of only 3 values (1,2,3) for which I want to have all combinations of two values. In this case, the result would be 1,2; 1,3; and 2;3. The ordering of the values does not matter, i.e. duplicates should be eliminated.

Checking Text In Cells Against List Of Possible Words?

Dec 27, 2013

I'm trying to make a game where from a choice of 16 words the contestant has to choose four of those words that, when another word is placed before or after each word it makes a phrase.

e.g From this list of 16 words
albert
bell

[Code]....

choosing bell, bottle, print, stocking can all have BLUE placed before them to make bluebottle, blueprint etc. That would be the correct answer. Choosing their four words would be from a drop down list of all 16 words, separate cell for each list options/chosen answer. bell bottle printstockingCORRECT

There would be 4 rows in total for 4 different answers to be made from the 16 words on offer. I have tried everything to get it to work in the 5th cell but it's difficult.

If Two Cells Contain Specific Text - Match Or No Match

Jul 10, 2013

I am trying to identify matches for company names I have in columns A and H.

I originally used =IF( $A3<>$H3,"No Match","Match")

The issue is that not all of the company names in column A contain "INC","LLC", "CORP", etc. So, I am not capturing all of the matches.

Example:

Column A: American Eagle Outfitters
Column H: American Eagle Outfitters INC

Is it possible to write a formula with the logic that IF A3 and H3 both contain "American Eagle Outfitter" then "Match" or "No Match"?

Hlookup Against Multiple Array Display Closest Match

Jan 4, 2013

I used a Fuzzy lookup to match the data that was shared between my two tables. I was able to run 3 different Fuzzy attempts to increase my accuracy because the source data had a lot of spelling errors and such.

Now I am at a point where I need to analyze the 3 possible Fuzzy matches. I am kinda stumped on the best route to do this and thought that an approximate match Hlookup would be the best route but I can't seem to get it to work.

Here is a pic of my table:[URL]

I am trying to match the cell outlined in red against the 3 cells outlined in green, when the best suited match is found I need to copy the green cell and the orange adjacent cells to it's left and right (ID# and Similarity). It would be best if the match threshold was in the low 90% range.
