Parse Various Elements From A Text To A ComboBox?
Aug 17, 2012
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>
[Code].....
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 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.

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 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 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 have a software application that imports audio files and writes information about these files to text files. I'm trying to write and Excel/VBA application that will parse and import the data contained in these files. find a sample of one of these files attached. The big hurdle I am facing is I cannot figure out how to parse this file - the delimiter keeps changing as throughout the file (see example below):
otrk ´ptrk ¬
otrk Îptrk Æ
otrk Ôptrk Ì
otrk âptrk Ú
otrk *ptrk "
otrk Øptrk Ð
otrk þptrk ö
otrk ´ptrk ¬
otrk ptrk
otrk Ðptrk È
otrk Þptrk Ö
otrk þptrk ö
otrk ptrk
otrk îptrk æ

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 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".

Join an array with Text elements to create a string that can be Evaluated
So for instance if I have Array("A", "B", "C") and I want to evaluate("=({" & Join(array, ",") & "})="A)"). Is there any way to do this without having to loop or push to a Named array first? I'll even take this evaluate thing if I can do it with text and numbers

"Use a formula to fill in column F (brand name) in the data worksheet. The Brand Name is the Branded Description minus the last word.
NOTE extra mark: If your formula can’t find a space (is error = true) then it takes whatever is in the cell and uses that."
Would I be using the CONCANATE formula or something similar?

I am attempting to extract a particular piece of data from a webpage. I was not able to use a webquery because the data can only be reached by searching an online database and the URL remains static throughout this process.
http://gisims2.co.miami-dade.fl.us/myhome/proptext.asp
The data of interest is contained in a simple, 2-column table with item descriptions in the first column and item values in the second. The code below is my closest attempt. I am attempting to look through the innertext of all the tables on the results page and see if any contain the text "CLUC", which is the description of the data I'm trying to retrieve. The code never finds any qualifying tables.

Getting some web page data into Excel 2010 using VBA. My scenario however is set up with the following titles in cell A1, B1, C1, D1 and E1 : POST CODE, OUTLET, ADDRESS, TELEPHONE, EMAIL
The result I want to achieve is I enter a post code into cell A2 for example, Excel then uses IE to navigate to the relevant web page as defined in the VBA code. I then want the following to happen:
The InnerText of the web page's h1 tag is then inserted into the OUTLET cell (B2)The first instance of the p tag is then inserted into the ADDRESS cell (C2)The second instance of the p tag is then inserted into the TELEPHONE cell (D2)The third instance of the p tag is then inserted into the EMAIL cell (E2)
All instances of the p tag are contained in a div element called div class="adBox_content" . There are also 5 other DIVs above that DIV in the hierarchy.
Using the YouTube tutorial link, the method has worked for me using the getElementsByTagName("h1").innerText
However, when I try adding a second getElementsByTagName("p")(01).innerText the whole thing fails.
So I'm left with two problems; I can't make the VBA get more than one element at a time from the page, I can only either have the h1 or the first instance of the p tag. I've tried all the getElementBy methods and none of them seem to work in getting the second and third instances to show.
I also need the code to make the data be put on the same row ONLY as where the post code was entered. In this scenario for example of entering a post code into A2, the OUTLET needs to land in cell B2 only, ADDRESS C3 only etc.
By following the youtube tutorial above by giving the cells names to refer to in the code, the data ends up being inputted in all further rows with identical cell names. I need it to not do that.
The code is needed for around 300 rows of post codes that will be entered and refreshed every week or so.

I am trying to determine a way to quickly import data from text files into Excel and place data in suitable columns (under correct headings). I am thinking I could be asked which file to read and import doing them 1 by 1, or if there is an automated way to cycle through all the files that would be more efficient (filenames are variable).
From the text files I have attached I can tell the column headers and what data should go under each. Not sure how you would describe the delimiting on these files? Are these files in a format that VBA could be used to reduce manual copy and paste approach? I have about 300 of these files I want to extract the data from.
Note: the attached files are from a public access website.

I have Combobox on sheet which is filled with list of time intervals (text). If I select item from combobox, I want this time interval to be splitted as text and fill one cell with start time, and other with end time - so that I could calculate time difference.
I guess this could be done by inserting formula in this start/end time cells, like :
[Code] ....
and
[Code] .....
I'm doing this to allow user for picking commonly used time intervals from Combobox, but also to enter other start/end time in cells for that. I cannot do that without VBA, but I don't know how to do It in VBA.
My time intervals in Combobox are all in this text format, example:

How can I do that ? I can also post a sample worksheet !

How to make it function able. Here are the details.I have a user form named UserForm1 in the user form I have a text box and combo box. Combobox is named as ComboBox1 and text box is named as TextBox1.
Along with the above 2 fields in form, I have 2 labels, Label2 & Label6.
TextBox1 contains date (which user can either type or chose form calendar), and ComboBox1 will have Employee ID that needs to be choose. Upon selecting both, my Label2 caption should have employee name & Label6 caption should have shift time.
By using formulas in excel I have employee name in Sheet2 cell b2 and shift time in Sheet2 cell b3. Upon change either in ComboBox1 or TextBox1, I want data in Sheet2 cell b2 be the caption of Labe2 and data in Sheet2 cell b3 be the caption of Labe6.
What is the code to get this done, if either of them is blank, then label caption should be blank.

I have a set of date of different lengths that I would like in a dropdown or combobox in a grid like fashion. Example
Apple, Banana, Orange, Kiwi
Mangos, Pineapple, Passionfruit, Guava
and I am trying to get it into the dropdown/combobox as
Apple,----Banana,-----Orange,-------Kiwi
Mangos,-Pineapple,-Passionfruit,-Guava
(without the dashes, the forum does the same thing excel does)
The data is of varying lengths, and the lists are actually parts lists, so they are long and of varying lengths each. Aside from physically going in a manually padding spaces, which isn't feasible given the number of them. The have alphanumeric characters, so jumbled all together seperated by commas is very messy and hard to read. I have tried padding with spaces using a formula but they do not line up right. I have been searching for a solution either having the entries in separate cells and concatenated entries, and still no luck.
