Match Text String & Split Output

Oct 9, 2006

I have a spreadsheet with Approx 900 rows of information that has been entered incorrectly.

Spreadsheet has 6 columns.
Contact Name
Contact Number
Company Name
Company Account Number
Order Date
Order Numbers

Every Order should have its own line - However I have approx 900 rows where the order numbers have multiple entries instead of single entries.

All the order numbers end "LO" and there all 8 digits long.

I wanted to know if its possible to use excel to look for all instances of "LO" in the column Order Numbers and delete the original Row and replace it with 3 rows with the same information.

Example:
Attached to this post!

I have 15 historic files each approx 35000 rows and I suspect there are more errors

Formula To Match Partial Text String?

Jun 3, 2014

I'm working on a formula to make it enable a part of the text then return the best possible match. Below is my formula

=MATCH("*"&$A11&"*",'[Customer Master List - 05.30.xlsx]Export Worksheet'!$B$82:$B$1298,0)

However, it works with some text but won't work for some.

For example, I have this text CARE-A-LOT, INC and in the master sheet there is a similar text like this CARE-A-LOT. I want it to return CARE-A-LOT as this the best match possible.

How To Find Exact Text String Match

Jun 16, 2014

In the four rows of text below I'm trying to match each gas stick to its corresponding gasline.

I think I can count over to "GAS STICK" and get the number. <15> From that point I can count over to "," (comma) and get that number. <26> So the gas stick will be between the first number and one less than the second number. <GAS STICK 1>

I need completing this code to place a the line or stick number in a cell B of the same row. Column A would have the description and column B of the same row would either be "1" or "11" respectively. Column C would be the shortened description (GAS STICK 1).

1] "HUNGA, DUNGA, GAS STICK 1, THINGY"
2] "DOHICKY, GAS STICK 11, THINGUS"
3] "SCAPPEN, DAPPER, GASLINE 1"
4] "SUCH, AND, SUCH, GASLINE 11"

Search For Substring Within String Of Text Which Is Exact Match?

Jan 6, 2014

Let us say I have the following text in Cell A1. "There is a fault in the cal cycle.Need to update the records." And in cell A2 I have the following text. "Called for backup assistance. There is an issue with numbers." I cells B1 & B2 I need a particular formula which searches for the substring "cal" exactly and returns true if present. In cell A1, we have "cal" in the text. So it should return true for me in cell B1.

However in cell B2 I need false to be returned even though I have "Called" inside the text. I need true to be shown only for those cells where we have the exact text "cal" and no text characters in front or back of it.

Macro To Paste Values If Cell Value If Match Text String?

Jan 6, 2014

In Sheet1, column Y looks into Sheet2 and returns the status of that specific order - the result displayed in column Y will be either blank or a variety of text strings (eg. received, pending etc).

I need to make a macro that looks into all the cells of column Y in Sheet 1 and copy/pastes as value into that same cell only if the formula in that cell returns text string "Received". It should not affect the other cells where the formula is returning either blank or a different text string.

VBA Find Partial String In Array And Output Found String Array Value?

Mar 31, 2014

I am trying to do a sort of index match thing using VBA. What I am attempting to do is to use the prefix of a long number and try to find that exact prefix in a string array, and output that string array value. So this is what I have so far as a test:

[Code].....

So I can match the text exactly so if I put PREFIXB in cell A1 in this example, i will get the msg box saying "YES", but if I make it PREFIXB1231k4j3jj1kj32cj, it will display "NO". I want to get it so that PREFIXB will be displayed in the cell that I put the formula in. So if A1 = "PREFIX1AAA100CF" and cell B1 = "=ABC(A1)", cell B1 will display "PREFIX1AAA".

Now the thing is that these prefixes can have different lengths, but will never encompass the exact prefix of another. So if I had a prefix of: PRE1AB, I won't have a prefix of PRE1A.

Using Match Function Output As A Variable

Jul 24, 2009

I am having trouble using the MATCH function in my code. I am looking for a match in one worksheet from a cell in another. I have defined these cells and ranges as variables. However, it doesn't seem to be working with my application. I would like to find the row of the matching cell and use the output of the MATCH function to determine the next step in my code with an IF function. Here is my code. (NOTE: this is my edited code, I removed irrelevant pieces. The major problem is the MATCH function.)

Converting The Output From A Match Function Into A Location

Oct 8, 2009

I would like to know if it is possible for the output from a match function to be correlated to a location? The output I receive is just a number. I would like to use this number as the row, but I would like to hyperlink it into a formula so that I can create a macro for this process.

In essence I would like for a number in one cell to become a location in another cell.

Split String Into Array

Sep 20, 2008

Say I have a string, "a test array." I want to split this into an array where each character is an element. I was thinking something like

Dim MyArray As Variant
Dim MyString As String
MyString = "a test array"
MyArray = Split(MyString, "", Len(MyString), vbTextCompare)

But this doesn't work because Split() returns the entire string when the delimiter is a zero-length string.

Splitting A String With Split

Apr 3, 2009

I'm stumbling upon something I just can't figure out. I thought I was being very clever using the Split() function, and it did all work beautifully for a while.
I've got a list sort of like this:

Helloworld
Hello of World
Hello1 of Planet
And I want to be able to run the following code.

For Each u In units
d_type_a = Split(u.Value, " of")
Debug.Print (d_type_a(0))

Select Case u.Value
Case "Hello"
stuff...
Case "Helloworld"
stuff...
Case "Hello1"
stuff...
End select
next

But it fails on the Debug.print with a "Subscript out of range, nr 9" error. The debug is just there because it doesn't want to work. The debug.print DOES out put "Helloworld" into the Immediate window but then still fails which sorta confuses me.
The best I can figure out is that it just doesn't quite like the string without an " of" in it.

Split String At First Delimiter Only

Nov 11, 2008

I have a column with cells that look like: XYZ - JobABC - Area 1-A. I'd like to split the column into to and have it look like: XYZ <next column> Job ABC - Area 1-A
Normally I'd use the text to columns function and "-" as delimiter, however, there are other instances of "-" which I do not want separated. Note that the XYZ can vary in length and therefore fixed width will not work either. I have attached a small sample with the different variations that I could encounter.

Split String In Collection Into 2D Array

Jul 30, 2013

I set out this morning to count duplicates in an array and report a succinct list.... so I went down the route of using a collection with keys to do this.

1. Is there a better way? Else
2. split my collection values? I'm a bit stuck.

I have a series of values in a collection like this

: Item 2 : "Spam|01/07/2013|1" : Variant/String
: Item 4 : "Chips|01/07/2013|2" : Variant/String

So I have 3 key pieces of data delimited by a pipe sign -

Product | Date | Number of Occurrences

Item 4 is of interest to me because it occurs twice.

How I can turn those collection values into something I can work with, else another approach to sum rows in an array which are duplicates (if you only look at 2 columns).

Split String Separated Comma

In filed I have couple of value separated by comma like below:

A1 header1
B1 header2
C1 header3

Audi

20 000

If my macro found that string (always will be separate by ",") should split the string and add rows (= to number of string). The output should be as below:

A1 header1
B1 header2
C1 header3

Audi
592035
20 000

I have:

Code:
