I would like to parse the below :
Say this appears in A column , I want to parse all the characters appearing after the numbers (i.e., 8.625% /5.875%/6.125% ) in B column - Any excel formula ??
Alere Inc. 8.625% October 1, 2018
Delphi Corporation 5.875% May 15, 2019
Delphi Corporation 6.125% May 15, 2021
So B should column like below
8.625% October 1, 2018
5.875% May 15, 2019
6.125% May 15, 2021
Suppose a name is typed in a cell as the First name in the front and the Last name following it e.g. Jupiter Jones.
Can it be reversed in the same cell so that it appears as Jones Jupiter i.e. with the last name in the front and the first name following it.
i had a situation where i import data from web.The sheet contains date & other columns.Whenever,i copy the data and paste it in my worksheet Using Paste Special >> Values i get some numbers instead of Dates.How would i correct the numbers to date format with out loosing the original date format(DD-MM-YYYY). Also the dates are aligned irregularly when i paste them to column.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a work sheet with multiple columns and rows. In one column there is unique number which is appearing in multiple rows but it is appearing in different rows more than once like this:
ColumnB
KA0012
KA0012
KA0013
KA0013
KA0013
Now i want to calculate this e.g KA0012 appearing twice as one number similarly KA0013 appearing thrice as one number how can i do it?
I've got a long list of inventory items. The naming convention of these items is not totally consistent. Below is a representative sample of all the different kinds of names:
1800Brandacom (CLIENTA) 25.00
1800Brandacom 25.00
brandb (Variable)
BrandC-100.00-PL-ALG
brandd variable
[Code] .....
I need to separate out the name of the brand and the number (or if the item says "variable", use a 1 for the number) into two columns, so that the results would be:
1800Brandacom
1800Brandacom
brandb
BrandC
brandd
[Code] ....
and:
25.00
25.00
1.00
100.00
1.00
[Code] ....
For the numbers, I have used this array formula to search for the first letter in the string, and then search for the first number following the first letter, and then return all numbers up to "." Unfortunately this does not work consistently when there is a number in the middle of the brand name or the item has no number.
[Code] ....
For the names I have used this formula, which fails when the name has a "-" in it.
[Code] .....
Any way to extract the names and numbers which would work consistently across all the items!
Lets say we have several numbers and combination of letters/numbers. What can we use to commonly refer to them correctly,

I tried to use
Like *####
But thats not correct
there is a none VBA way to remove everything from a cell but the numbers.
Example: A, DAVID (002081) becomes 002081
The cell the formula will go in is F4 and the cell its looking at is K4.
I have a list of data in Column A of a spreadsheet that is all at different lengths.
I would like to return the numbers from this (see below) seperately and also everything after the last number so returning "green"
Example:
EAST MIDS, YORKSHIRE0112012green
EAST MIDS, YORKSHIRE0112012red
EAST MIDS, YORKSHIRE0112013black
EAST MIDS, YORKSHIRE0112013brown
Looking to create a Formula (not Code):
IF CELL A1
1. NOT Between 8 and 20 characters OR
2. NOT contain at least 2 numbers OR
3. NOT contain at least 2 letters OR
4. contain characters (e.g. punctuation) which are neither numbers or letters
Then FALSE.
For example the cell contains 1,M2,M7,M1,M8:2,M15,M9,M4,M5:3,M3,M6,M14,M11,M12:4,M10,M13 and I need to create M1, M2 , M3 ..etc columns and attach the coresponding number to each one of them. For instance M2,M7,M1,M8will get 1 and so forth and so on. I was acutally thinking using the Notepad to replace the , with a TAB space and paste them back in to my data set and create some IF statements. On the other hand running VBA scrip would make it even easier. However I would preffer to use a function (that I am not 100% familiar with) and leave the VBA scrip out of the question for the moment.

I know the randbetween portion of my code will not work - but how can I make this work with VBA? I need four random numbers added after the 4 string characters.
For Each R In MyNewR
If IsEmpty(R) Then

Application.WorksheetFunction.randbetween(1, 9)
End If

IF there is a whole number in either column a, b or c, I need to have column e reflect that with the insertion of a / for each column that has a whole number. i.e.

5 6 9 / / /
I am attaching a copy of the spreadsheet showing the examples, I can't seem to get the function to work.
I'm faced with receiving data for time, in a text format, as follows:
Example of possible cell contents...
20secs
40m20secs
2h40m20secs
I'm not interested in the secs value but need to isolate the h (hours) and m (mins) values to use in another formula as numbers. The time could be shown in either of the above formats with either; (a) just secs, (b) mins & secs or (c) hrs, mins & secs... and of course the hours or mins values could be 1 or 2 digits in length. How can I determine (using formula only, not vba) what the values for hours and/or mins are dependent upon what is present?
Have a spreadsheet that contains a column of 3 digit numbers as well as 3 digit numbers with 2 trailing alpha characters.
Example:
376
377
421
376AB
376XY
377NC
421GQ
421EF
Need to sort by this column, but, with the parameter of sorting first by the numeric only, and then by numeric with alphas. So, the above list would look like this sorted properly:
376
376AB
376XY
377
377NC
421
421EF
421GQ
I would like to ask if there's a way to generate a random 4 characters in one cell and the specific random 4 characters that has been generated will be copied until the last cell of my preferred choice?
The format that I want is that:
yymmdd / random 4 characters that has been generated / 4 numbers that will increment sequentially
For example:
in A1: 140330QWER0001
in A2: 140330QWER0002
in A3: 140330QWER0003
.
.
.
.
.
But here's the catch, the file that I am using when closed then opened again will generate another random 4 characters with the same format. If i opened this file tomorrow:
for example the date for tomorrow is March 31, 2014, the file will do:
in A1: 140331TYUI0001
in A2: 140331TYUI0002
in A3: 140331TYUI0003
.
.
.
.
.
I tried to record it, the Rand() function when copied will generate another 4 characters.
I need a formula to use on MS Excel 2007 to remove the English letters from a cell A1 and return only the numbers(if any) & Chinese characters to B1.

I want the user to press a button on the spreadsheet and this should then result in a popup box appearing on the screen asking the user one question ie "what is the current rate"
The user will then enter for example 20%. I then want to transfer this number to cell A1 on sheet 1.
I have found a very useful UDF for removing non-alpha characters from strings. (See below, Credit for posting to Stanley D Grom - Ozgrid post Removing Non-alpha Characters From Text).
Option Explicit
Private Function RemoveCharacters(InString As String) As String
Dim intLoopCounter As Integer
Dim intStringLength As Integer
Dim intASCIIVal As Integer
intStringLength = Len(InString)
InString = LCase(InString)
For intLoopCounter = 1 To intStringLength
intASCIIVal = Asc(Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1))
If intASCIIVal >= 97 And intASCIIVal <= 122 Then
RemoveCharacters = RemoveCharacters + Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1)
End If
Next intLoopCounter
End Function
Two requests:
1. Could the UDF be modified such that any part of a string contained within brackets is also removed (e.g. "NLGA High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlgahighstreeten")?
2. Can an argument be added to the format of the UDF, such that numbers (0 to 9) are either included or excluded (e.g. RemoveCharacters(A1,1) where the argument 1 would include any numbers (0 to 9), so "NLGA2003 High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlga2003highstreeten6")? blankor 0would exclude these numbers, i.e. would return "nlgahighstreeten"

I am trying to parse employee names into seperate string variables in order to display surname, first name and middle name in seperate fields on a form.
The format of the full name is "Surname, First Name, Middle Name (If any)
I have managed to deal with surname and firstname but I am stumped on middle name. Not all employees will have a middle name but for those who do, I need to parse it.
I have a text file that has data at various time steps say 0,1,2,3 etc. In each loop, the output data is recoreded that contains numbers and strings. I want to parse certain info from this text file.
Say I am interested in reading the data for very last time step, so when I open the text file for reading, I want to move down to the Time Step 3 line. Then I want to read the text line by line, any time I encounter the word WIND, I want to skip five spaces and pick up the number that appears there. I want to paste this value to say cell A1 in a sheet called ParsedData. I want to continue reading till the end while picking all such values and filling the ParsedData sheet A2, A3, A4 ... cells till the end.
I have arrived at the following in order to find the 5th "bar" in the data (samples below) :-

Samples:-
STR|6|L||396|3| STR|4|L|114|396|3| NHF||||1463|175| RND|4|H|111|2352|49|
Is it possible to reduce the repetition within the formula?

I have a workbook with several drop-down lists. The names for the lists are on a seperate sheet in the same workbook. I have used data-validation and allow list in all the cells with drop-downs. I have used =NAME in the source. I opened the workbook this afternoon for the first time in a couple of days and I am no longer able to select from a dropdown. I can type in the cells, but if I type something not included in the list, I get the "The value you have entered is not valid" error. So I feel like the validation is working on the cells, I'm just not able to select from a drop-down list. "In-Cell dropdown" is selected.

Is there any way the next falling sign can be predicted in cell B56? And if so, what would be the measures to guess the next sign?
I am joining two columns of data. first col. has size in fraction format: 7 3/8
second column has text string:
HABITAT CINCY POD HAT ERA BLK/RD
Concatenate= HABITAT CINCY POD HAT ERA BLK/RD 7.375
Changing fraction to decimal, needs to remain fraction.
I have played w/ the formatting to make Number w/ zero decimal places and then selected Fraction, but no luck there.
