write a macro that search first Row and if its finds the word "Date" then the whole column should select and change the Number formatting to Date, and if it finds the word "Time" it should change the formatting for the whole column to Time.
Below is the format of Table where it should change the formatting of Date, Start Time and End Time.

I want to say if the word 'suitcase' is in column W (any row), place the word 'suitcase' in column Z, same row.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI finally bought the "book" and now I am going through trying to write cleaner macros.
I am searching for a key word in a header.
When I find that key word. I want to select the info in that row from the last record up to the header.
Then I want to copy that info and paste it into another column.
so trying to learn from the book - I want to use the R1C1 style - but as you can see I don't quite understand yet. I want to copy and paste into column "J" for example... so i'm using 10 in the range.
FinalRow = Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Range(FinalRow, 1).Copy Destination:=Range(, 10)
some of the code proved inflexible when applied to other columns of data. I have some VBA code that could work if it can be modified. First the code:
Sub ColorMe()
Dim lRw As Long
lRw = Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row

The way things are right now, if a cell in the B-column contains the word "April" (and ONLY that word), the contents of the C-column's cell on the same row receives a red font color (index 3 as per the example above). The idea is to modify the code so that it searches for the word "April" in a string of text such as "Mike's April Trip" and color the contents of the cell to the right of it accordingly. Is this possible?
As an aside, conditional formatting does not work for the purpose that the cells are being colored for. It needs to remain hard-coded like in the script above, hence why I am just looking to modify something that 'sort-of' works.
Here is the current code I am using: =IF(A1="MIXED DBLs 1st Place",'Mixed Doubles'!B9,"")
What has happened is I am changing the Field Mixed DBLs to a field that could have multiple values, so I am no longer going to be able to do a test on a Hard-Coded Value.. So is there a way to only validate on the front of the word like just MIXED DBLS and nothing after that??
I already have this code written but it looks for all words that contain my desired word. i.e selecting "innovation" while looking for "ovation"....
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a search function in a database I have made. I have a userform with drop down boxes that people can choose what they want to search for. Once they have chosen and clicked the search button I want it to search only in the relevant column, i.e. search for the word in the dropdown for "engine" only in the "engine" column of the database. Once it has found the appropriate cells with the answer, I want it to delete all other rows that don't include the answer.
Once it's done this it needs to do it again for the other fields, unless they are empty. I have used 'If engine_type <> "" Then' as the starting point so that it only searches chosen fields.
I am trying to search text cells to return a word count within a particular row of cells and I am currently using the following formula:
=COUNTIF($D4669:$EI4669,$O$3), where cell o3 contains the word to search and $D4669:$EI4669 the data.
However, this formula misses data that contains characters such as "," etc.

I am trying to write a formula that will search an array for a particular number that I type in, and return a "Warning" if the number is within the array, or an "OK" if the number is not yet used. It is to do with allocating batch numbers to Raw Materials and avoiding using duplicate numbers.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a list of customers and account numbers contained within a cell. I need a formula if possible that searches from the right of the cell and then returns the all the numbers. e.g.
Arsenal1234Required formula result 1234

The sub i'm currently using does an instr search for a unique string in an xml file. This works fine but i'd like to speed up the search if possible because I have a large number of xml files to search. My problem is that i have very little experience in parsing xml.
I notice that if i load the xml file and look at the namespaces i see item(1) through about item(20) and the unique string is always contained in one of those items. Note that the number of items can be different for each xml file i load.
The xml file is loaded into an object i define as oInstance and i'd like to do something like:
Do
counter = counter+1
if oInstance.namespaces.item(counter) = uniquestring then[code]....
but now i get Err.Number 91
Due to the company that i work for doing alot of manuafacturing each and every day, i need some sort of look up.
For example, the currently excel sheet i use.

As you can see i have many different Job Numbers that i use.... BUT
The problem that i am facing is, that these jobs sometimes are carried over to more than one day, [sheet bottom of screenshot] but also we might make the job one day and and then not again untill next week using the same Job Number.
What I Need
I need a way of searching for a job number across all 31 days and for it to total up the "Quantity (Qty)" of them all that we made upon that Job Number.
So lets say the Job Number 91294 was run on day 1 (shown in screenshot).
And it made 25.
But it then ran again 3 days later on the same Job Number 91294.
And it made 20.
I need it to be able to work that out the total for me across them days being 45 upon the Job Number 91294.
Things to Consider
The layout will NOT change, no extra rows or coloums will be added.
I have a table of data that I need to find the leftmost and rightmost number in that are greater than a specified number in another cell. I've attached a spreadsheet to show what I've got to work with.
I need to do this 1 row at a time and have the outcome in descending cells on the right hand side of the 2 example rows.
How I can find instances of text strings containing two colon characters separated by any two (arbitrary) characters?
So in other words, "xxxx:xx:xxxx"
If I use :
Code:
SheetName.Cells.Find(What:=":**:", After:=[A1], SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious)
...I get a return of any strings containing two colon characters (regardless of the number of characters in-between) - because obviously the asterisk(s) denote any text whatsoever.
How do I specify a finite and exact number of characters between the colons when searching?
I have an excel database where I register cases. I have in it a button that creates a folder with and ID nr that is in column A (I create new ID nr in the next row, when I press the button it will create a folder with that ID nr and inserts a blank word document in it). We have a template that we copy to the folder (depending what type of case). The idea would be that once the template is filled in and ready to print, It would take the values from the ID nr and a reference number a few cells to the right. Is it possible to tell excel to open the word document in the folder and create a PDF version with the ID nr and reference number. (there are only 2 templates, so the macro would have to look for one of the two in the folder) The names of the templates are: "Standard" and "Other". I guess the best way to start maybe this would be that I select the cell with the ID nr and then press a macro button to have this done. One thing that needs to be done, is to put a copy in the same folder and another in a second folder called "Binder" in my documents folder.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have on the first tab a screen where you can fill in the name of the .doc or .pdf file.
That works fine, but now I would like that when I fill in a number and click on test, it opens te .doc and .pdf file that is attached for that number.
If you take a look at the pdf file you will see a second and a third tab.
First column is the number they need to fill in and the second column is the name of the .doc or .pdf that needs to be opened with that specific number.
How to link it and open both files for that specific number.
But not every number has a .doc as well as a .pdf.
on one sheet we have a summary of the main list, which includes totals of money recieved, totals of all the different sources (ie, where they heard about us from), the totals of the frequencies they pay (ie, how many donate monthly, quarterly...) ... etc. on the next sheet we have the "main" list of donors, their IDs, amounts, frequency, source ...
the totals on the first sheet are updated manually, but i want to change that as there are a great number of errors.
I need to open a blank word doc, paste a spreadsheet onto it, format it and filter out some keywords. All from excel of course.
1) Access the internet web page - done
2) Open the excel ss - done
3) Open word - not done
4) Paste the ss onto word - not done
5) Format the doc - not done
6) Filter out rows containing keywords - not done
Just to get started I tried this code to open an existing word doc but it doesn't work
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Set wrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
Set wrdDoc = wrdApp.Documents.Open("C:BShift.doc")
End Sub
It says file cannot be found. There is a file there named BShift in word 2010.
One of the reports I run provides me information on lengths of time. Such a field displays as |0:09:16| indicating 9 minutes and 16 seconds. However, when the report generates the excel spreadsheet it saves these cells in date/time format ([h]:mm:ss). If I were to convert this field to the number format (so I can manipulate and graph it) it displays as such |0.00643460648148148| Ideally I would be able to have the data in the field stored as |556| (556 seconds, or 9 minutes 16 seconds). I have thousands of fields that I need to manipulate where the data is stored in this format and I can not figure out how to fix it.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel 2010 spreadsheet where the default number format keeps switching to the date format. I keep switching it back and it'll stay as a number format for a time, but then it'll switch back. This is also the case for any new worksheets in that one spreadsheet.
This only happens with this one file - everything else behaves according to my regional settings or to how the file had been previously formatted.
In order to export an excel table into another program I first need to save the excel file as .txt. The .txt file can then be imported by the other program.
First I however need to make excel understand that the value should be a text and not a value. I therefore format the number as text (0000150235) by adding "0000150235". After saving the file as .txt the format changes from "0000150235" to """0000150235""". I do however need the format in the .txt file to be "0000150235". Can anyone tell me how I can save "0000150235" as .txt and get the value "0000150235" in the .txt file.

I have an excel program that is supposed to count word instances in a word document. I can't seem to find the right declaration for a word document.
For example to declare a workbook in excel its
Dim wb As Work Book
I've tried
Dim doc As Word.Document
'or
Dim doc As Word.Application
as shown in some of the forum posts, but an error user-type not defined keeps displaying.
I work with a team of users that are continually publishing reports in Word that contain charts and graphs copy and pasted from Excel into Word 2010.
We have a custom script that leverages a PDF engine to automatically convert .doc files to .PDF files that we distribute electronically to our clients. This all works great, but only if all my users select 'paste special' and Enhanced Metafile Format when adding their excel charts into our reports. Most of these people aren't tech savvy, and I'm havin ga hell of a time getting them to follow this workflow and am hoping there's a way in Office 2010 to select the default paste from excel into word when the content is a chart.
It seems like the default paste from excel is an embedded chart/graph that you can then further manipulate each component of the chart in Word; the default doesnt' paste an actual image. I am assuming the pdf renderer is using a lower resolution .PNG version of the image and when these are scaled for print and or pdf, they look like crap.
Is htere anyway I can automatically change the default paste format for the chart from excel into word to be an EMF/EMV (enhanced metafile?) Either thorugh the registry or some other saveable setting?
I have a problem that when I try to convert text to number and format the number without 2 decimal places as seen on the link I have given below, Instead of 1607.947, I get 1607947. I have Excel 2010 loaded. The details are in below picture.
