View 7 RepliesI have a macro which will import data to the worksheet, then perform some formatting on the data, then assign the month & job description based on the lookup table. The problem is that when I import in the data, the data in column B&C will be store as text instead of number and the date in column E will store a 2 digit year instead on 4 digit year which cause error to my macro. I have try to preset the column format to number, i even try to change the column format to number when i run the format macro data. But the problem is still there.

Has a way been discovered to convince Excel to save a new number format and include it in the drop down selection for any workbook?
1. Store the value in Cell A1 to a text file located in C: with name TEXTFILE.TXT (Replace the existing value)
2. Store the value to the text file as additional line item (append records)
i am not good in programming.In an outlook i am trying to write a maro.
I am reading lines from a text using readLine(), how i can store each line into an array using vbscript. I write the code as follows,
While Not F.AtEndOfStream
s = F.readline
Start = InStr(s, "@")
If (Start > 0) Then
- Here i need an array, when start>0 , store that line into an array
I am trying to loop through column A and I want to store in an array where I find "App" within the cell value. I am trying to find "App" but will store the whole cell value in the array. I could not figure out the Find method, so I tried the MID function but am having no luck.
Here is my code:
Code:
Sub Arraytest()
Dim arr As Variant, lastrow As Long, i As Long, f As Long, l As Long
f = 0
lastrow = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
ReDim arr(1 To 1, 1 To lastrow)

I have working code that returns a row number within a for loop based on parameters I set.
Each time the for loop runs I would like to store this row number, then after the loop has finished, delete all stored rows.
Code:
for rowNum = 1 to x (some variable end row number which I already have worked out using End(xlUp).Row)
if x = y then
*storedRow = rowNum
end if
next rowNum
*
Lines with a * are the bits I can't work out. I've been trying to understand arrays by reading posts on what other people have done, but I can't fit (or fully understand) the reDims, or reDim preserves into my code. I've seen what appear to be quite complex ways involving uBounds and LBounds, but unfortunately I can't see how to use them.
All I want is to simply keep adding a row numbers to a variable, (i.e. row 2, 5, 20, 33, 120, etc) and then delete those specific rows.
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.

Is there a function that allows you to read column A for an ID (these may or may not include letters/numbers/"?", are non-sequential and are of variable lengths) and, if it is the first time that it has seen an ID column B will read "sample_1_arm_1", if its the second time it has seen an id it will read "sample_2_arm_1", etc? An example of what I am trying to do on a much larger scale:
id
event_name
C83-858
sample_1_arm_1

Text to Number or General.xlsx
The included, small database is formatted as text. It is a text feed from an outside source. I simply want to format the cells into either numbers or general format but not text... seems simple, and it should be, but the only way I can get this done is to go to each cell and access the formula bar and re-enter the number by pressing Enter.
I used to get data from a database (CorVu & MIMS) in this format "0122458/001". Due to changes in those Databases I now get the data as 2 columns " 0122458" and "1" .What I need to do is somehow get this back to the old format including the leading zeros.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find a formula that will count the number of unique entries there. I have tried the solutions posted on various websites to no avail (most recently:
Code:
=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(MATCH(A1:A10,A1:A10,0),MATCH(A1:A10,A1:A10,0))>0,1))
).
The answer should be 4,457.

Look at the tab "testing-allproduct" cell C2. If that value exists in the tab name "store-allproduct", cell c2, then take the value from "store-allproduct" cell a2, and put that value into "testing-allproduct cell" A2.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a column C with different text in cells (item's title). Column D - relevant description for each of the items. 100+ rows.
Now, unfortunately, often a spreadsheet with items is updated with many new items. So I get a new spreadsheet with old and new items mixed. I need, somehow, to import descriptions of the old items (Column D of the old spreadsheet) to the new spreadsheet from old spreadsheet. So I want excel to look for old items in column A of the new spreadsheet and, once found, insert a description in the column B from old spreadsheet.

I can't seem to make user-defined format that puts a text in front of a number and/or a text.
Let's say I have A1: 13, A2: texttext A3: text7 and I want to format a lot of cells to "Ilike 13" / "Ilike texttext" / "Ilike text7"... ie add the same text in the front of the cell, no matter what the content is.
I did manage it seperately, with "texttext" @ for text and "texttext" # for numbers, but what's the general one?
I am trying to write a VBA procedure that uses nested For/Next loops to store the contents of a range in three worksheets to a 3 D array and then input the array into another location.
I have no problem doing this for a 2 D array, but am completely stumped on what changes I need to make in order to perform the same task on a 3 D array.
I will post my code for 2 D arrays below and will also post the uncompleted 3 D code, although, it is currently of no use because I am so lost on the 3 D array.
How do I reference sheet1,sheet 2 etc. when declaring my 3 D array? I know how to reference the rows and columns for my 2 D array by using the cells or range object, but what to do for the different sheets.
Two D Array:
Code:
Public Sub For_Next_Two_D_Array() Dim I As Integer
Dim J As Integer
Dim MyArray(4, 4) As Integer
For I = 1 To 5
For J = 1 To 5
MyArray(I - 1, J - 1) = Cells(I, J).Value
[Code] ........
Three D array:
Code:
Public Sub Store_ThreeD_Array()
Dim I As Integer
Dim J As Integer
Dim S As Integer

I have some code (listed below) that will open 2 groups of files(for testing purposes, I have been using for only 2 file prefixes, but will need for upwards of 10, and more may be added in the future), depending on what files have been opened in the past (it will skip those) and then import the new ones.
I am now trying to clean up my code, and having alot of it abled to be maintained be editing a spreadsheet (administator controlled)
What I would like to do is something similar to:
defvar= cells(1,1) 'where cells(1,1) has all of the info for that file to import
Selection.TextToColumns defvar
I realize this will probably be a little more complicated than this, and may even be its own sub or funtion.
Here is my starting code, and it works fine: ...
I created a vb macro to open a text file then process the file then close the file. Here is my problem:
Problem: THe text file has rows of data in it as follows
5155111111551511111111111511111111111111111
This row of text gets converted to
5.16E+42
because excel treats the row of text as a number but i dont want it to do this transition.
When i save the file and then reopen it using say NOTEPAD i see 5.16E+42 and not the long string of text.
What If we had to replace any number..
Lets say, if we had to seperate NUMBER TEXT NUMBER in different combinations....
B2 contains values like these then
TOM CRUISE 12
TOM 5879 CRUISE
TOM CRUISE 123456789
123456789 TOM CRUISE
123 TOM CRUISE 456
[ = SUBSTITUTE(B2,"1234567890","") ]
I am at my wit's end pondering over it?
How to make the SUBSTITUTE function work for each individual digit?
Here's the data set I am working with.
I get a dump that is in the form xxxx gbps or xxxx mbps (gigabits and megabits). I'd like to either use a formula or VBA code to convert this to mbps in another column.
I have a standard block of text with numbers in it pulled from various calculations in a financial model. I have done this through a formula
e.g. ="You gross profit percentage is " & D9 & "% and your gross profit is $" & D10 & "." Problem is i'd like to format the numbers that pull through so they are easier to read. At the moment in the above example D10 results in $-600000000. I'd like it to look like $(600,000,000).
I want to store a list of strings in an array with their position so that I can sort them alphabetically and then be able to put them back in their original order again e.g.
John 1
Charlie 2
Paul 3
Andy 4
etc,
So when they are alphabetized (is that a word?) they become
Andy 4
Charlie 2
John 1
Paul 3
My plan was to store them in an array, but I can't think how to do it. In python, I would just make a list of tuples, what is the best way to do this in VBA?
Currently We enclosed a Workbook (with exiting VBA code) In this workbook 3 sheet exit (Edit, Details, Summary)
In Details Sheet store Detail Entry of Invoice & in Summary Sheet we store all generated Invoice details in summary form
We want new VBA or correction in existing VBA.
My Exiting VBA work following..
When Enter Invoice Number in Edit Sheet (Cell B2) then Display Entered Invoice Data
First Code Find Invoice Number in Summery Sheet if Invoice Number found then Record Display of Selected Invoice
Here we Edit As per our requirement then We Press Y in Edit Sheet Cell C30
If Found C30 "Y" & "Data ok" in E30 then DELETE Selected Invoice Data From SUMMERY & DETAILS SHEETS & COPY THIS EDITED DATA (RANGE A33 TO G33 In Summery Sheet & Range A35 to A60 in Details Sheet)
My Exiting code work perfectly as per above
We want only following thing
Currently when we copy edited data that move to end of sheet We want to Change & same place where data exit previously before edited. Because serial number disturb.
NOTE : in Editing Time is it possible Few Item Delete or Few Item Add
Can I store a value with out storing it in a field? -with the macro ending?
Ex macro1 runs and gets A1.value
Stores the value (Not in a cell)
I later run macro2
Gets the stored value
In a cell I will be having many strings separated by a ";" for ex
columna A
a; b; c; d ; e
f; g; h; i; j; k
how to store this in a macro?
I have a two rows of data one containing names and the other containing corresponding numbers. The names are static and the numbers change on a daily basis. I want to be able to copy the numbers to a static table next to each name on a daily basis (so I can see what the value was a few weeks ago).
Is there anything I can write to do this job?
My thinking was to set a vlookup to grab the data but i'm not sure how this would work because the vlookup would change daily when the numbers change
I have tried to look for this in several websites and have not found the appropiate answers. So i figured one of the Wizards in this board can help me. Right now when I built a macro it has to be dependent to a file. However I like to build a macro button that when I use it, it will actually just work for any given currently open sheet.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm sure this is a very easy question, but I have been having trouble finding the answer on this and other forums.
Our macro has a search routine where it looks through a column for particular cell contents. Once those contents are found, we want it to save that cell's location, go do something else, and then return to that location afterwards. How would we go about doing this?
I have a simple Excel file with some columns as you can see from here:

I have a simple formula (COUNTIFS) to count occurrence of certain condition that I specified. everything works fine here, but I also need to write current value of count cell at the end of each qualified row.
Data entry is random and I may work on row 1 and then row 25, so incremental row numbers that is shown by excel is not my answer. I need exact number of occurrence for each qualified row.
