I want to merge cell text from different column's and row's into a empty cell using VBA and array. e.g (fName, lName, address, City)
I have seen many way's to merge cell text from same row.
I need to merge the contents of an Excel 2007 workbook into a text document, creating a series of paragraphs that look like this: Text text text [contents of cell A1] text text text [contents of cell A1] text. Text text text [contents of cell A2] text text text [contents of cell A2] text. Etc.
Apart from the cell contents, each paragraph will be identical. (I would do this by hand, but there are about 500 paragraphs.). Is there a way to merge the cell contents like that into a text document (Word or whatever)?
Normally i have a row and data as below:
Item
Red
Comfortable
New
Car
1
and i would like to merge them into one cell like this(with spacing between them):
Item Red Comfortable New Car 1
Can VBA do this move?
I did a search for " import text" and found some promising leads, but not exactly what I was looking for. I have tried running macros and looking at the code but don't know how to pass the file names from the the D47:D147 range to VBA(see below). I saw elsewhere that Excel can be told to create a temporary batch file, and that the batch file with the command "copy text1.txt+text2.txt+text3.txt all.txt" for example could be used to merge the 3 text files into a file called all.txt. I don't however know how specify the path where copy starts, to tell the batch file to look in subdirectories or to pass the file into Excel. I've posted this question yesterday to Yahoo Answers http://tinyurl.com/omers and http://tinyurl.com/rfww9 without much luck.
Below is the macro I would like:I have text files whose names are found in the range D47:D147 although without the appended ".txt" extension. The sheets can only contain one name sometimes, but on average 8 to 10, so in the average case only cells D47:D56 would have entries.The text files are found in the say H:Textfiles directory or subdirectories.I would like Excel to find these files, concatenate them with a row between each file, and paste the results into cell K251.Finally, the text import wizard should be used with a space as a delimiter and the last 3 columns (it's sometimes only 2) of the concatenated file, not imported.
I am trying to get excel to search a workbook/(or worksheet if easier) for a matching unique value and fill in its associated data. My first workbook has the SKU (A) filled in but not the UPC (B). My second workbook has both the SKU (A) and the matching UPC (C) filled in.
I need to take both workbooks/(worksheets), compare the SKUs, and if a matching SKU is found, extract the UPC from Workbook 2 and fill in the UPC field in Workbook 1, and if no UPC is present in Workbook 2, then it leaves the cell in Workbook 1 blank.
Trying to create a button that, once clicked performs the following task:
Checks whether the text in a cell in the column X2:X40 matches the text in a cell in the Range A2:U14.
If it does, the formatting of the cell in X2:X40 (eg background) must change to match that of the corresponding cell in A2:U14.
Only 1 cell in the range will match 1 cell in the column
For example:
Before click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a clear background
During click:
matches these cells
changes X4 so that it also has a yellow background
After click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
I have a database containing dates and activities (text) on the speciified dates.
In some cases a date might have more then one activity therefore I need XL to (on a separate sheet?) merge the text.

Is there a macro that will allow me to create text to row from a comma separated cell, but also associate the cell to its left automatically?
The table below exemplifies what I need. The top of the spreadsheet is how my data is currently. The portion after the break is how I would like it to be.
I have over 600 rows that needs this done.
1,2,3,4

[Code]....
Search a worksheet for a user defined text string, and have excell return the contents of a predetermined column in the same row in which the text string was found.
A prepopulated worksheet has the text "gold" entered in cell T278.
1. user searches for "yellow_metal"
2. Excell finds "yellow_metal" in row 278, say in cell A278.
3. Excell then goes to predetermined column (programed as part of macro or VB), say "T", and returns the text contents of the cell in that column, T278 in this example.
4. Excell returns "gold"
is there any way for a worksheet to import and merge (append) tab delimited files from these directories:
C:TempmergeV¿ñdata.txt
C:TempmergeV¿ñ (2)data.txt
C:TempmergeV¿ñ (3)data.txt
C:TempmergeV¿ñ (4)data.txt
C:TempmergeV¿ñ (5)data.txt
- contents of data.txt have range A1:Pn, where 'n' is last row, different for each file
- found a previous thread very similar to what i wanted, but donno how to edit this to suit my purpose

BTW, does VBA recognise directory folder with unicode characters? I can rename my directory if it doesn't.
So I have a column that will have the same text in all of the cells contained within it except for one cell. Is there a formula that I can use that will automatically find and transpose the text of the one cell that is unique out of the column? I was thinking of an IF function, but the column could be up to 60 cells in length.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet that has a section in range (c18:k25) (it is merged and text is wrapped) If that amount of space is not adequate to fit all their information I would like to add a macro that when activated it asks how many rows would you like to add and then based on that number whether it be 1-10 it would insert a new row to that merged range so they can continue adding more information . I have the sheet locked down to prevent changes so it would have to be unlocked and then re-locked within the macro.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a large list of text in one column which i need to combine between blank rows into one cell or a new column, the number of rows to be combined varies.
for example
aa

would become
aa bb

I have over 30000 lines so doing it by hand is not an option.
I am looking for a Macro that will search a column for blank cells, and when one is found will add text to the same row in another column. For example: The below is a spreadsheet. I am trying to find something that will search through column "C" in this case and add text (of my choice) to Column "A" if the cell is Blank. So Since cell C1 is Blank then Type "ERROR" is cell A1.
A B C D E
1 X X X X
2 X X X X
3 X X X X X
4 X X X X
5 X X X X
I have two columns that are the same field, both Middle Name. The first column does not have every single row filled and the second column has every row the first column does not have and vice versa. I want to merge them to one filled column.

I have hundreds and hundreds of excel files. but in every file, there is the same column lets say column D which has all the information I want. In stead of opening hundreds of worksheets and copying and pasting over the data into a new sheet. Is there a code I could write that would open all these files and copy the data from the same colum over into my new sheet? so column D in the first work book will copy to colulm A in the new work book. Then colum D in the second workboko will copy to the new worksheet in column B ect ect ect.
I am using the following formula to find out the No. of "HH" in the range given and I am getting the results simply with numerical value as 2, 3 etc. I want the result should be displayed as 2HH, 3HH depending upon the No. of "HH" available in the given range.

I use excel 2002.
When I use "Merge & Center cells with Labels" of a pivot table, It is merging Column labels as well as row labels. Is there a workaround to apply this feature only for column labels and not for row labels.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have 2 columns full of information feeding from 2 different sources on our internet database
I would like to collect this information into 1 column to create a drop down list
As these are expanding tables feeding from the internet I don't think copy and paste into one column will work (I'm not sure about this but I would prefer a formula to avoid any issues).
I have got a wordlist in worksheet "original" which looks like:
Before: [Code] .....
I need a macro which merges the columns B,C,D,E and F depending on if there are duplicates in Column A or not. If there are one two or more duplicates in column A,then those should be deleted and only one of them should remain in column A. The members of deleted duplicates in column B,C,D,E and F should be merged together. No duplicates should be made by the process of merging. Each member in column B,C,D,E and F has to be unique. The results are supposed to be put in worksheet "new".Columns B,C,E and F should be merged through signe "/". And Column D should be merged through signe ",".
After: [Code] ......
The macro must be able to deal with very large lists. biger than 200 000 words in column A
Here is the excel file containing the example : excel file
Now I know that merging cells is usually not a good thing in VBA, but I'm working on a data report that just looks bad unless longer pieces of text can span several cells to minimize column width.
So here's the problem:
I have a column of 1's and 0's in columns E and F, and text in Column G. I want to merge the cells in columns G and H for that specific row if there is a 1 in either the E or F column for that specific row. And I need to do this for a long range...rows 7-5000. Any ways that VBA can do this?
i have got a wordlist in worksheet "original" which looks like:

i have to clean a worksheet from duplicat rows. The list looks like:
A---------B-----------C
a---------s-----------b
a---------f------------b
a---------s-----------b
a---------e-----------d
a---------d-----------v
Those rows have to be deleted where duplicates exist in column A and C. In our example the first three rows would meet the criteria and two of them have to be deleted. Content of Column B has to be merged with ";" but without duplicates. The result would then look like:
A---------B-----------C
a---------s;f----------b
a---------e-----------d
a---------d-----------v
I know how to merge data in a CSV (see attachment) from 2 columns into a single cell using =A1&" | "&B2 so that A1 (Safety Products) plus B1 (Fire Protection) becomes Safety Products | Fire Protection in cell C1, but how can I do this across multiple rows so that each pair of names is combined in each row? The job I'm working with is a product CSV file that has 6370 lines so I don't want to do them one line at a time!
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn a big data sometimes I have identical rows (maybe the 'Quantity' column has different value). I would like to merge them into one and add the quantities together. I have to use B and C (I need both) to find out if these rows are identical.

I have a list of values, some are like values, others are not. is there a way to have the column to the right automatically merge the cells which have like information to their left. Attached is a sample file. I want to be able to have the cells in column B automatically merge based on the values in column A. I'm not sure if this can be done, but figured I would ask before I spend hours merging cells.
