Parsing And Appending Contents Of Filename Into Columns?
Oct 21, 2013
I have a large number of Excel files with unique filenames that contain information I would like to add as columns to the actual spread sheet.
SPY_P_20131025_172.00_XX
I am trying to in break apart the above format with each of the above underscore separated fields being placed in there own column. How I would accomplish something like this?
...And if I wanted to perform this function on a large batch of files is there a tool I would need to automate the process?

I have a spreadsheet that gathers information from multiple cells and strings the data into a long string - each piece of data broken by a comma in the string.
In another spreadsheet, I copy this data string into column A on sheet 1 - starting on row 2 and down.
On sheet 2 - and this is where I need help - I would like to have a macro that will take each data string on Sheet 1 column A and parse it out into multiple columns but the same row on Sheet 2.
ColumnA Row2 Sheet1 -> changing to many columns on Sheet2 but still on the same row.
The data string always represents the same number of data components - its just a matter of breaking it out and placing each data piece into its own column.

I am having trouble parsing the numeric data from the following table into separate columns. The five different numbers (ex. 70, 130,10,5,6 in the first row) represent nutritional info about the product. As you can see, the number length varies for the different categories. How to get these 5 numbers into their own columns using LEFT, RIGHT, MID, FIND, etc. functions.

I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. Firstly, I am using Excel 2007.
What I am trying to do is add to the bottom of a list/column of values. The value I want to add is a changing value which I have set to change once every minute.
For example, in cell A1 I have the value '2000' This value '2000' is placed into cell B1
Once the minute has elapsed, the value changes (by web capturing). This value could be anything. But I want this new value to be placed below the B1 cell, into B2.
Then, another minute passes, the cell A1 value could be different again and I want this new A1 cell value to be placed below the B2 entry, into B3.

I have a download of public records from a local County Auditor, regarding property ownership. However, the data, as it is provided is incomplete. I have obtained, from another source, much of the missing data and would like to append the original data.
I don't know if this is even possible, but in 'Googling' it, I am optimistic.
I have attached an Excel 2007 spreadsheet with a sample of the County data on Sheet1 and the data that I would like to append on Sheet2.
Sheet1 lists the parcel number (A), and information regarding the last five recorded sales.
B: Sale Date
C: Deed Type
D: Buyer Name
E: Recording Number
F: Sales Price
G: Multiple Parcels ("Y")
H: Notes
I: Loan Information.
Then the B-I information is repeated four times (J-Q, R-Y, Z-AG, and AH-AO or also defined as columns 10-17, 18-25, 26-33 and 34-41) for a total of the last five sales.
Sheet2 is a listing of sales with similar information.
A: Sale Date
B: Parcel Number
C: Buyer Name
D: Sales Price
E: Recording Number
F: Deed Type
G: Multiple Parcels ("Y")
H: Notes
I: Loan Information
What I hope to do is this:
If the 'Recording Number' (E) on Sheet2 matches the 'Recording Number' (E) on Sheet1, then replace the eight columns on Sheet1 with the data found on Sheet2 (pertaining to a specific sale number).
If the 'Recording Number' (E) on Sheet2 does not match any 'Recording Numbers' (E) on Sheet1, replicate the (unmatched) data (from Sheet2) on Sheet3.
My hope is that this will give me updated, and more complete, data on Sheet1 and also show me all the data that did not match on Sheet3 for me to use later.
I have included headers on both sheets in hope of making things clearer to the reader.

I was wondering if there is a way to write a macro that will take an excel file that I have called Alldata and then have it copy the first two sheets to a new workbook named something else( FullSparameter_0) and then copy the name of the third and fourth sheet into the new FullSparameter_0 workbook and then copy column A-E from sheet dB Alldata.xls and paste it into the FullSparameter_0.xls workbook in the same dB sheet in the same spot. And do the same thing with the Phase Sheet. i know this sounds confusing, but im really new to the VBA stuff.
I just need 15 different files from the original Alldata.xls that will be named FullSparameter_0, FullSparameter_1, .., FullSparameter_14. but each file will have the same two first sheets, Setup Information and Cal Verification, and the same last two sheet names, dB and Phase, but then in the dB and phase sheets, it will copy over the next four columns of data. so in FullSparameter_0 it will have column A-E from sheet dB in Alldata.xls in the dB sheet in FullSparameter_0 (Same with the Phase Sheets). Then in FullSparameter_1 it will have column A and Columns F,G,H and I (for dB and Phase). In fullSparameter_2 it will have column A and then J,K,L and M. Each FullSparameter_X will have the exact same first two sheets and then the other columns for the last two sheets will be pasted into columns A-E in dB and Phase.

I have a macro that does the following.
-Every time a cell in Column D contains New or Old, “Customer” is entered into Column G in the same row.
-Every time a cell in Column D contains Old2, “Assets” is entered into Column G in the same row.
-Every time a cell in Column D contains New2, “ShortTerm” is entered into Column G in the same row.
-Every time a cell in Column D contains Old3, “LongTerm” is entered into Column G in the same row.
Here is the macro.

I am trying to get result in a column based on contents of previous 4 columns. For example as per table below, if there is value 1 in either of first 4 columns of same row, I want to display A in column 5. As first 4 columns in row 2 to 4 contains 1, result is A. If there is any 2 in first 4 columns, I want to display B. If there are both 1 and 2 in any first 4 columns, I want to display C. If there is 3 in any of first 4 columns, I want to display D. And if all 1, 2 and 3 are in any of first 4 columns, I want to display E.

Is there any way we can append the value of selected cells to make it 'value', Basically I need to add ' at the beggining and end of the a value in cells and a comma (,) at the end of it.
Example I have value 12345 in cell A1, When I run a macro by selecting cell A1, it should change it to '12345',
It should apply for all the slected range.

how to search for this so I'm just gonna ask. See sheet below I faked the resulting formula I need) for reference.
We have an engineering database that spits out data. One of the things it spits out is a list of equipment tags along with its associate electrical drivers (I.e. motors) and details for each. I need to do some extra playing around with the official equipment list that we have to produce.
In a nutshell, if an equipment tag only shows FIXED in any of it's drivers, I want the formula to show nothing (blank). However, if the word VARIABLE appears in any of that tag's drivers, I want it to show VARIABLE. I know there's a formula involving IFs and whatnot, I just can't figure it out.

I'm trying to create a spreadsheet that will automate our job bidding process. We have alot of standardized phrases we use and I thought it would be nice to just click on the phrases that are pertinent to the user's current bid. How do I get the user's current selection (from a form, not a cell) to append itself to the "current" end of the bid (a worksheet)? In other words, previously entered information by the user (name, address, type of bid, etc.) is already updated on the new worksheet created by the new bid, but how do I get the user's current selections to find the end of what is already there, and add itself to the bid at that point?

I export data from another programme into excel and I wish to write a macro to copy the contents of columns G, H, I and J and paste it into columns A, B, C, D but starting at row 4. I then carry out various formatting tasks. I have written a macro that works for the copy and paste and the formatting but it only works when the data is the same length. The length of the data exported varies each time and so I am looking for some code that stops at a blank cell and copies the range above. I believe this uses xlup or xldown.

I have a workbook named as "DCR_Summary". In the sheet "FX", I want to get the sum of a specific column from two different workbooks named as "WNCR REPORT" and "DCCR-REPORT". The name of the column is "FXCOLL". The summation should start in row 7 all the way down where data is available. The good thing is that, my sum range will always starts at row 7 in both files but the bad thing is that the position of column "FXCOLL" is changing every day. The expected result is shown in the attached "DCR_Summary". It should pick at the same time the Sheet names where the summation came from. Sheet names is also changing and sometimes the FXCOLL is nil, hence, 0 value can be returned.

I've a workbook with two sheets 1)'weekly' and 2)'summary.'
Weekly is divided into products (up to a maximum of 8) with a fixed number of columns (4) directly below but a varying number of rows beneath as follows:
Product A (main header)
Issue|Serial Number|Analysis|Comments
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
--couple of blank rows--
Product B
Issue|Serial Number|Analysis|Comments
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
--couple of blank rows--
Product C
Issue|Serial Number|Analysis|Comments
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
data|data|data|data
..etc...
This weekly data must be appended into each product's respective grouping within the 'Summary' tab. With the following small additions: 2 additional columns filled with the model and current week must be inserted beforehand:
Product C
Model|week|Issue|Serial Number|Analysis|Comments
Product C|7|data|data|data|data
Product C|7|data|data|data|data
Product C|7|data|data|data|data
Product C|7|data|data|data|data
Product C|7|data|data|data|data
Product C|7|data|data|data|data
Summary page will contain the groupings of Product A through H. The weekly may only contain 1 (say Product D) in any given week, or all 8.
I realize there are more efficient ways of doing this, i.e. pivot tables, creating discrete tabs for each product, etc... but I've been tasked by the higher-ups to generate the above as I've laid out.

I have a folder containing 1000's of files. All the files end in .txt (for example test.txt) but are actually excel files. When I go to open the files with excel I get the following warning:
The file you are trying to open is in a different format than specified by the file's extension. Verify that the file is not corrupt and from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to continue?
I click "yes" and it opens fine as an excel file.
I want to merge all these files one after another into one file.

I am trying to create a formula that is able to calculate an end result based on the cell contents of 3 columns, the results are predefined in 3 other columns, here D, E & F
For example:
Column A Column B Column C Column D Column E Column F Column G (Results)
Royal Mail 1 100 2.8 2.3 1.2
Royal Mail 2 100 2.9 2.4 1.3
Royal Mail 3 100 3.0 2.5 1.4
DPD 5 200 4.5 2.8 1.5
DPOST 1 100 1.2 3.2 1.7
I am trying to create a calculation that in Column G will work out, IF Column A=Royal Mail AND Column B=1 AND Column C<=100 THEN Answer is [@[Column F]], IF Column A=Royal Mail AND Column B=2 AND Column C<=100 THEN Answer is [@[Column F]], IF Column A=Royal Mail AND Column B=3 AND Column C<=100 THEN [@[Column F]], IF Column A=DPD AND Column B=5 AND Column C<=200 THEN [@[Column E]], IF Column A=DPOST AND Column B=1 AND Column C<=100 THEN [@[Column D]]
Here are an example of what I have tried, amongst many...
=IF(AND(AND([@[Default Post Postal Service]]="Royal Mail"),AND([@[Default Postal Format]]=1),AND([@Weight]<=100)),1,0) Everything is zero.

I have a worksheet in which column A:C contains slno,name etc. Col D contains numerical data.D4:D5 is col heading. D6:D41 contains numerical data. I want to copy the data from D6:D37 only. for this i tried the following but with negative result.
1.select cell D5.
2.press F5 and enter -to goto cell D37.
3. press control and shift and up arrow to select the upper cells. Excel selects from D37 to D4 whereas i want it to be from D37:D6.selecting D6 and then press control shift and enter keys takes me to the last cell with the data in the column, ie,D41.
How can I select only the required cells so that i can copy the content.selecting the first cell and then dragging the cross is not an expected answer to solve this.

I'm trying to clear the contents of all data in each column that has the text conaining "D_MA" in that columns row 2. For instance, if cell F2 has 30D_MA, I want the macro to clear all contents in Column "F" -- but to do this for all columns that contain "D_MA" in row 2.

Was looking into this, but basically i have a repetitive task of copying contents from various columns, and pasting them into 1 column.
1 right after the other. I figured there could be a way for a macro to copy contents from multiple columns and paste them into 1 column.
I have including 2 files, 1 from the start of the file, and 1 how it should be so it will have clarify what i am trying to do.
So basically if you open book1 , i have factory install tabs,
I need the columns contents from the first tab the (5k-20k) starting with Column B, then E, then H, and so on( Every 3rd column starting with B ) to be copied and pasted in Column A of the (Factory Install Tab) ( last tab ).
If you open the 2nd file this will be clearly understood. In the second file in the factory install tab you will notice i did the first 2. I highlighted each starting part in yellow just so its easier to see. SO in column A you should have all the contents in the 5k-20k tab ( starting with b every 3rd ), pasted in column A 1 after the other.
The next tab is the 30k tab, i need all of the columns contents copied starting with B ( every 3rd again ), copied in Column C of the Factory Install tab. Basically every tab's contents needs to have its own column in the Factory Install tab.
If anyone could help that would be great, this is a very time consuming process manually, and it would seem like a macro could be made to easily copy contents.

I frequently review DAT files. These DAT files use a variety of characters as delimiters. I'm trying to devise a macro that will perform a text-to-column operation, using the content of a specified cell as the delimiter.
Here's my code, which uses - (ASCII 0254) as a delimiter:
Code:
With Sheet1
Range("A1", ActiveCell.End(xlDown)).Select
Do
[Code]....
Instead of having the delimiter hard-coded, I'd like my macro to use whatever character I enter into Sheet3.Range("i5") as a delimiter. That way, I can easily change my delimiter character as necessary.

I have created a desk planning spreadsheet in excel. Each week a mailmerge sends out an email to everyone in the office asking them to confirm when they will need a desk in the next week.
As the normal employee doesnt get involved in desk planning I want them simply to state whether they will be in the building or not by entering "GH" (our building) in a cell under each day in the email they get sent.
When the reply comes in we select the cells from the email and then paste them into the desk planning spreadsheet.
-----
WHAT I NEED TO DO:
Select some cells (must be in the same row - that we have just pasted in).
Press a button on the Worksheet labelled "Auto Assign Desk", which does this:-
For each cell that contains "GH", replace with the right-most cell to the left of the selection that starts "GH_"... (this is the start of a unique desk reference (GH_1_1, GH_1_2,etc.)
-----
This will assign the employee to the desk they were sat at last, when they are in the office next week.
