Basically I have xml strings that are pulled out of a database all in the same format as below.
In between the 2 pharses below I need to pull out the value in between
For this example it is N.

Objective: To create a list of numbers based a cell which are present in an alpha-numeric string
Issues: "-" shows up at times without the context of numbers (i.e. MS-DRG)
Issues: I am not interested in float numbers (i.e. 37.63-37.66)
'Example data in cells (row 1 = A1, row 2 =A2, row 3 = A3, row 4 = A4)

I need to parse text strings and format them.
The string looks like this and runs down an unknown number of rows in one column, Col A.
+000800-000900+00123456-000800+0012345650+000700
I want to parse this so that the results will be text to columns
80.0 90.0 1234.56 80.0 1234.56 50 70.0
I want to thank BrettH for creating this VB. I want to manipulate it to read every row in Col A that has data, and then I want to parse the data as shown above. BrettH's VB works but I couldn't modify it to read all the rows that had data. I tried looping the rows using a counter loop and also a For Each loop, but could'nt get it to work.
Sub ParseInCellMath()
Dim DefaultRange As String, UserRange As Range, OrigForm As String
Dim TempForm As String, NegString As String, NegStart As Integer
I will have a cell that has company names in it and I need to parse each name an then do some work with them but when I started this project I was told each company will be seperated by some number of spaces.
Ex.) |Company1(534553) Company2(3544)|
Right now this is how I'm parsing a line like this:
I receive a text file daily of between 100 to 50,000 rows. It is a combination of many smaller text files or " records". Each record contains a row containing the name and some particulars . From 1 to 5 rows below that row there may or may not be a row containing the score for that record.
Here is an example of what the rows look like;
4505329 64036593 150090 MS MARY SMITH AB Finished
CRP 3.0 SCORE: 400
From the first row I need to pull out the second string of digits (ex 64036593) and the person's name. From the second row I need to extract the score (400). I would like to copy the three pieces of information to 3 separate columns on another sheet.
Comments
1. the word "Finished" always appears at the end of the row with the name in it but it also appears at the end of every record in it's own row like this;
Finished No Note
2. the strings of digits in the first row can vary in length but there are always 3 of them and they are always seperated by spaces.
I need to extract all the names and scores and put them in a table. If a name is not followed by a score I need to put "no score".
I am working on modifying this code (below) that I found here: VB Macro to search webpage for text string
Code:
Option Explicit
Public stResultstr As String
Sub SearchForString()
Dim rngURL As Range
Dim cll As Range
Dim stCheck As String
Dim xmlHttp As Object
[Code]...
So right now I have the script prompt you for a URL range, then it asks you for what you want to search for, and I have it set to return the next 10 characters from that found point.
You can see here:
Code:
If InStr(1, stResult, stCheck, vbBinaryCompare) > intt Then
intt = InStr(1, stResult, stCheck, vbBinaryCompare) + Len(stCheck)
I began to create something to identify the last position of the found item because next I want to loop it to find the next occurance of the same thing and return the next 10 characters after it in the next cell to the right in that same row:
Code:
cll.Offset(, 1).Value = stResultstr
Again, what I want to do here is find and parse out every occurence of a string (inputbox) found on a web page url in column A. The parse occurrences will go to the right in cells C though ? for row N.
I have about 10,000 records which I need to split up into different fields, they are in the format prescribed below:
1 George Avenue
20-25 Alphingoton Close
Manors House
I want the above to be in this format:
Collumn 1 Collumn 2
1 George Avenue
20-25 Alphington Close
Manors House
Raw data:
1 acct01 John Doe 10
2 acct01 Hits 20
2 acct01 Runs 05
Goal:
1 acct01 John Doe 10 20 05
Searched answers but found nothing that helped. The following code results in the error - 1004 Reference is not valid. First cell is not empty and not the same as select.
' Sorting
oExcel.Columns("A:G").Select

oExcel.Selection.Sort oExcel.Range("C2"), xlAscending, , , , xlSortNormal, xlSortNormal

I work in the Oil and Gas industry and deal with large data tables that have "Location Codes" for lack of a better term.
The problem is that not all Databases use exactly the same format of code, they will however always have the following:
xx-xx-xx-xx ---> ie. a string of four numbers each seperated by a Dash.
This string sometimes will appear after a text name of varying length. With this in mind I would like to parse the four numbers into four different columns.
Things I've tried with some success:
Using the "Right" function to break off the location code off the end of the entire name, and then using the ".parse" command in VB to seperate the numbers at given intervals.
This is great for certain purposes however because the four numbers are not always 2 digits, and the ".parse" command cuts at given intervals it is hard to accurately parse an entire set of data.
Some examples of location Codes are given below:
9-23-78-11
WEST DOE 11-16-81-15
KNOPCIK 3-9-73-9
Trying to Parse text in Excel - Since there is no definitive length and no standard in the way the name is created , I am having tough time to use the Software reports.
A column is from software report,
I am looking for any option to arrive at values as appearing in F column.
I did B and C column but not sure is there any other efficient way of doing the same or any other formula to arrive at F - Desired Result.
I have a column that is a list of addresses. For example:
I need a formula to separate out the last words (city and state) from the rest of the address and put into a different cell.
I have an unusual request this time. Client wants this and I know it's dumb but this is what they need and I can't figure it out (not smart enough ).
They have the following as contacts in column A:
Belinda Jones & Grant Smith
Ken & Marie Johnson
Bart Simpson
They need this separated into a Contact 1 and Contact 2 so that it ends up like this:
Contact1 Contact 2
Belinda Jones & Grant Smith
Ken & Marie Johnson
Bart Simpson
This is a list of 10,000 names and I have no idea.
I'm looking for a worksheet function that will allow me to separate into another cell the characters between the second and third slash in the source cell. The number of characters varies, but the value I want is always between the second and third slash.

As you can see, CITY name can be multiple words, STATE names are 2 Digit letters for both US and Canada, and ZIP Code is Numeric to US and Alpha numeric to Canada. I have all these in a single Column. I need to separate them into Col J,K, and L. I have the following formulae but these don't return exact parsing. For example; my formulas in order:
To parse CITY, '=LEFT(H15, FIND(" ",H15)-1)'
To parse State, '=MID(H15,LEN(J15)+2,FIND(" ",RIGHT(H15,LEN(H15)-LEN(J15)-2)))'
To parse ZIP, '=RIGHT(H15,LEN(H15)-LEN(J15)-LEN(K15)-2)'.
I'm trying to populate a ComboBox or ListBox with elements parsed from a html code I've already parsed from a webpage. Explaining: I was able to extract from the webpage code the part that contains the information I want, which is:
VB:
<li><a href="/universidad/" rel="*">Universidades</a></li>
<li><a href="/universidad/duoc/" rel="28184">DuocUC</a></li>
<li><a href="/universidad/inacap/" rel="28162">INACAP</a></li>

Now I want to make a ComboBox containing every university as a different option and, if possible, to assign them the corresponding values shown in the code.
I have a mastersheet (see attached file) with data on it. I need to parse this data out to individual sheets based on the values in column 8.
Currently I use this code but it only creates sheets with no data in it and it also doesn't rename the sheet tabs.

I have the following entry in A1

I want a formula to parse the text based on the "_" deliminator so email is in B1, yshot is in C1 and 200081222 is in D1.
I have a file with multiple tabs of data...lot's of data (each tab has 80,000+ lines and 23 columns...3 are formulas, the rest is imported data). I've brought Excel to it's knees (i.e. crashes). Yes, I'm using 2007.
What I'm trying to do is extract 6 cells of data from every 10th line and write it out to a CSV file with two more pieces of information (same for each line).
What I was doing was creating a separate worksheet for each one to be extracted, parsing out the data, and then copying that data to yet another workbook that was then saved as a CSV.
First, in retrospect, that was a waste of time. Second, the addition of the extra worksheets to do the parsing was crashing Excel due to the extreme size of the workbook.
What I'd like to do is use a macro to do all of this in one swell foop:
1) Prompt me for a file name (or I can put the desired name in a cell and read it from there if that simplifies the code)
2) Open a new text file with that name and ".csv" extension in the same folder as the original workbook
3) Write out the column headers: (Fix, Satellites, Lat, Lon, alt (ft), Date, utc_t, course)
4) Step through each row, looking at the text contents of column B (looks like 22:50:07.100)...if it ends in ".000" do the following:
4a) write "PPS,4," to the open text file
4b) write the cell contents from columns "V", "W", "J", "C", "B", and "L" to the text file in the exact format they appear in the text cell.
The output file should look like (very short example):
Fix,Satellites,Lat,Lon,alt (ft),Date,utc_t,course
PPS,4,30.543203,-86.323328,1419.04,2009/12/17,23:26:22.000,243.95
PPS,4,30.539272,-86.332765,1831.53,2009/12/17,23:26:34.000,242.61

I have data that I copy from one sheet and move it to another. If I know I'm parsing data that may vary in amount of line items but will always be across 3 columns is there a way to parse this data evenly.
for example:
I would like to look in column "D" and if there is an "A" I would like to parse cells A,B,C in that row to sheet 2 and parse this information evenly across 3 columns evenly across columns "A,E, I"
In my example the data is only 21 rows of information the problem I have is evenly parsing this information.

I was wondering how I would go about witting a vba for that can be connected to a button which would allow me to enter a row of input.
Some of these values I would like entered for example are: Quantity, Shape, Weight, length....
I would like the user to be prompted to enter these values and then have these values entered into columns, ABC... in a row on the spread sheet.
The catch is I would like this new date to be entered on one sheet via its weight (so that lightest material is on top), on another sheet in this workbook entered via its location so material in the same locations are adjacent to one another, and then finally I would like this updated onto another worksheet.
I have a PDF document with an income statement that I'm trying to bring into excel. When I copy it, it puts all of the information in 1 column like this: NET INCOME 183,450 (237,660) 421,110 177 (1,461,273) (1,769,800) 308,526 17

I can seperate the numbers from the words, but I can't seperate the numbers from one another. Is there any way that I can do this via a text fuction?
