Mining Text Fields
Mar 23, 2009
How would I group and count the occurences of specific words in a text field? This is my first step in trying to develop a scoring method based on our notes.
If the sentences above were in the text field, I'd expect the words "a" and "in" to come back with a count of two while all other words would come back with a count of 1.

Text mining in Excel? Is this possible? I'm think along the lines of sentiment analysis, part of speech tagging, that sort of thing. Are there add-ins for this, or libraries to hook into via VBA?

I have an excel spreadsheet that has the following type of data in the cells:
"11/09/08 20:29 JDS David/DBLD reports lights in the canopy are not working Christine/CBRE b4957204-1"
I need to know if there is a way to mine the B4957204-1 out of this, I have 300 cells with similiar text in that I need just a list of call #'s out of without all the other dribble.

There are websites available for data, but what is viable and crucial to me is finding a way to
1) Run a repeated process via a macro / vba script to allow for data input into the site
2) Once input into site, data is to be brought back into excel so that I can benchmark my product pricing vs my competition
There are 2 sites I am most interested in getting this information from specifically and although they do the same thing they have a couple of unique pros to them. they are the following
1) Findchips.com
2) eciaauthorized.com
The biggest pro to findchips.com is that they have a beta tool on their site that allows for "mass searches" to be performed as opposed to 1 part number at a time. Up to 100 results can be returned at a time, so although there would be multiple iterations doing it this way would save processing power as each step is not done line by line (p/n by p/n) as i could group them and send them and perform the operations that way.

Engineering has given me 300 separate 2003 Excel Files. Each of these individual Excel files contains data I need for creating a list I have been tasked to do. Cells E3, K1, A6 and J2 in each Excel file contain the data I need for my list. Rather than manually data mining 300 separate Excel files for data I need from Cells E3, K1, A6 and J2, can this be done automatically with a macro?
I'm seeking for the Macro to automatically OPEN each individual Excel file, then copy the data from Cells E3, K1, A6, J2, and then paste this data into a list file with four columns. After the pasting is done, the macro will close the source data Excel file and move on to the next one. In the future I will have to repeat this task with probably 400 individual Excel files. Therefore, it will be great if the Macro didn't care how many Excel files required data mining.

How would I compare two text fields (old and new) and change the font in the 3rd column (Difference)?
For example:
Old: I can not figure 3 things out.
New: I can't figure 2 things out.
Difference: can not can't figure 3 2 things out.

I've been scouring the Internet for a few days now trying to get a macro working with varying degrees of success. It's driving me mad and I'm really hoping that someone out there can help me out. I'm trying to write a macro that will ...
1. Take a .xls file
2. Split the file in two
3. Take cells B2:B11 and paste them in to a csv file (to be called Upload1.csv) using the rows as column headers (i.e. B2:B11 now become A1:J1)
4. Take cells A13-J13 downwards (this file will have different numbers of rows each time it's generated) and paste them into a different csv file (to be called Upload2.csv) populating all the rows (except all rows in column I which are to be left blank) and all rows in Column J which are to contain the info in cell B7 of the original document.
5. In cell B11 of the original document I must only take the information that says MyAddress:xxxxx and discard all the other info
6. I must also loop through the second document until I find the words Total and copy everything UNTIL that row into the new document.
I know this probably sounds pretty awkward but in practice it's not that difficult to understand, it's probably the way that I've explained it
So far I've managed to take the original document and split it, populate both CSV files but I'm having problems with looping the macro until it sees the word Total and discards it and also populating the appropriate rows with the info from B7 ... I don't know how to make it populate only the rows that have info on them.
I've attached the original Excel file that is generated and also my attempt at the 2 csv files. I've also written in RED what needs to go where in each document.

I'm using an Excel spreadsheet as a database (mostly text based), so that in columns 1 and 2 are names and in column 3 is notes. I'm keeping all the columns single height (ie: not wrapping text). Where there is nothing in column 4 onwards, the text from column 3 displays across the subsequent blank fields.

I would like to create a very simple Excel file that makes the following:
If I enter 2 in a field I want that 2 replaced with "07.15-19.00" and also a 1 entered to the field next to it. If I enter a 4 I want the 4 replaced with 00:00-08:00 and the number 8 entered in the field next to it.

I have a file from PubMed with a bunch of citations in it, which often go above 10,000. There are fields that mean certain things and I would like to be able to import the text file into Excel and parse certain fields into columns.
The text file looks like this:
PMID- 19782657
OWN - NLM
STAT- In-Process
DA - 20091109
IS - 1872-6240 (Electronic)
VI - 1303 .......

I have a space delimited text file with 3 columns. The 3rd column is a string which may or may not have spaces in it.
How do I import the text file so that I end up with 3 columns in Excel and still have the entire 3rd string from each line?

I have used the advanced filter option in excel 2010 to display all the unique occurences of a list of names (column B) and then used the count function =COUNTIF(A$2:A$21,B2) to count the occurences of each name (column C).
However, excel did not manage to take into account the last 3 entries in column A (mir-23). I assume this is because it is a mixture of text and numeric values. How can I include this information in the grouping and counting?

I am trying to link the data from one cell to another. My destination cell has the formula
[=IF('Request Form'!A39="","",'Request Form'!A39)].
Which works great for values in the reference cell that do not contain carriage returns, which is possible. The problem I am running into is that if the reference cell contains a carriage return the destination cell just ignores it and crams the lines together for display purposes. Is there a way/formula I can use to force excel to display 'exactly' as entered, in cell returns and all?

I'm creating a restaurant rota spreadsheet and I need to calculate the hours for each waiter, which is easy enough. But I've got to include stand-by shifts and cover shifts into the rota for the staff and I'd like the formula to ignore the "standby" text, etc in its calculations. I know you can use the =IF(... function, but that only works with one value. As well, the standby shifts will change from shift to shift and week to week, so I need one formula that might encompass all these needs... if there is one!!
An example of my rota for you to see:
MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY SUNDAY
Total hours for week START FINISH START FINISH START FINISH START FINISH START FINISH START FINISH START FINISH
10:00 17:00
10:00 17:00 12:00 16:00
Lunch Hrs/Wk 18:00 #VALUE! 19:00 24:00
standby standby 19:00 24:00 standby standby o2 Cover o2 Cover
Dinner Hrs/Wk #VALUE!

I am creating a spreadsheet for results of a survey. I am trying to give numeric values to text fields so that I can place the cell values later into a SUM function. The text fields are entered into the spreadsheet via a drop down list in each cell I created by utilizing the validate button. The text field contains choices like The text field contains choices like “1 Very poor,” or “4 Very much.” The source for the list is on a separate sheet.
EX: If cell C5 equals the choice “1 Very poor,” and cell C8 equals “4 Very much” I want the cells to have numeric values of 1 and 4 respectively so that I can utilize an equation like =SUM(6-C5+6-C8) later in the spreadsheet to calculate aggregate scores.

I've got a software test plan that has test cases w/ individual pull-downs to select result states (All individually color-coded thanks to a macro). If any state is selected other than "Pass" or "Untested", a text entry feild appears two rows beneath the test case for additional notes and information regarding what behavior occurred when the test was done.
I need a way to a.) Automatically select this text field once any state other than "Pass" or "Untested" is selected in the pull-down, and b.) Require text entry in the field before the user can proceed to the next test case. (ideally w/ accompanying custom error message describing what information is required.)
I've pasted my macro code below: ...

I am trying to find a way to see if a range of cells contain (not exactly, just contains) the text in another cell.
For example:
A1 Fred Flintsonte 2012 B1 Barney Rubble C1 Barney Rubble
A2 Barney Rubble 2012
If a cell in range A1:A2 contains text in B1 (CASE INSENSITIVE), then C1 equals B1
I've tried entering this formula in C1, but it does not work:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(B1,A1:A2)), B1, "")

Although I have removed the original numbers in the main area (I12 - AM12), there are still values in the fields I11 - AM11 that just won't go away. These formulas merely sums up the columns below as far as I can see so I can't figure out how come the values 101, 98, 9o etc aren't '0' since there are no values to add anymore..
NB!Not sure if the formulas will be in norwegian or if they change based on language settings but think you will be able to figure them out regardless..

I have a list of company names and I need to find the duplicates. Of course pivot table finds the exact matches, but how do I find duplicates when only 1 character is off. Like punctuation or "s" or a mistype of a single character?
Example:
Jo Blo inc
Jo Blo inc.
Jo Blo inc
Jo Blo icn
Joe Blo inc

I have a workbook that is used to calculate sales & commissions for our sales reps. The majority of the worksheets are "RepLast, RepFirst". All of these Rep worksheets include an identical format. I need to add another sheet which grabs the total quantity of products A for each rep and sums them on the new sheet. And repeats the process for products B to Z.
Is there a way to do this other than longhand naming each rep and then the field in the worksheet? We are regularly adding new reps (and losing some periodically), so I would prefer to not have to regularly update the longhand formulas (i.e. ='RepName1'!A25+'RepName2'!A25+'RepName3'!A25...etc) as that would seem prone to introduce calculation errors.

I have a rather unique problem with a new workbook I have created and it only affects 2 sheets out of the the entire thing.
The sheet is driven by a name:
Schmoe, Joe
Diddly, Bill
These names are picked from a drop down list. When a name is picked it autofills other fields using the LOOKUP command:
=IF(A3="","",LOOKUP(A3,Roster!A2:A181,Roster!C2:C181))
By now I think this is pretty straight forward and works wonderfully well for the other 50+ sheets. However I have two employee names where the second of the two (Diddly, Bill) takes and autofills the fields with Schmoe's information. The only thing I can randomly pick up is perhaps the employee numbers are too close:
00868

I have a spreadsheet that I receive with a column containing some numbers. It arrives in genearl format but as part of a macro I format Column "C" to 2 decimal place numbers.
This works fine but some of the cells are completely empty. I need to have those empty cells populated with "0" which will of course display as 0.00 because of the formatting.
