PHONE formatting. Is there a way to create a macro to format the VALUE of the phone to be either (XXX) XXX-XXX or XXX-XXX-XXXX ? I obviously can get it to look like this, but the value is just XXXXXXXXXX.
View 13 RepliesI'm looking to see is if there is a way to modify this code to format a phone number as (999) 999-9999. Right now it formats phone numbers as 999-999-9999.
VB:
Sub FormatPhoneNumber()
'Purpose: Formats a telephone number as 999-999-9999.
'In cases where more than one phone number is enter in

Just got an answer to my phone number problem of converting two columns of numbers
to a single columns with the form XXX-XXXXXXX. Used =A1 & "-" & B1.
Works perfectly one one spread sheet and not at all in another.
When I enter the formula and hit return, instead of the correct result, all I get is the formula.
The format of the columns is the same on both spread sheets.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a series of dependent drop lists and a cell which asks for a phone number. I would like if the selection in the previous cell is North America, the format of (111) 111-1111 is chosen. if the user enters the improper format I would like them to be prompt with an error "Improper Format - <Proper Format>", clear contents, and re-select the cell otherwise if valid select the next cell. It would need to strip out the leading 1 incase an international code is entered and also special characters such as "(",")","-","+","_" as well as spaces.
The next problem is that it would have to change format to if another selection is chosen. The other two selections are Australia and Europe. Europe is more difficult of a format as the area codes vary in length. I will be dealing predominantly with Sweden whose area codes even vary. For Australia I would like it to be in the format 011 61 1 1111 1111 where 011 61 will be added even if the user does not enter it (or if not possible prompt with proper format).
The cell asking which continent is G35 and options are "","Australia", "Europe", "North America"
The cell asking for a phone number is K47
The next cell on valid response is G50
I have phone number in phone format which looks like this: (123) 456-7890 which needs to be converted to: 1234567890.
I tried but unable to do so.
I have created a userform but I am having extensive problems with the date formats.
My system is set to UK and short date is set to: DD/MM/YYYY
When I used code to add the values in the userform to the spreadsheet, any that contained a date format would revert to the US format.
So I finally figured out to use DateValue to format it correctly for example: ...
I would like to have a single button that changes a range of cells from the USD to EURO to perhaps CAD symbol. Can this operation be performed, such that if I start in dollars, and I click the button once, it shifts by range to EURO (not formulas...just symbol)...and then if I click the same button again, it goes to CAD, and then back to USD with a third click?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have two columns where there are dates (e.g. 11/05/2009) in a date format; I would like to change the format to `general`; but without losing the original values, i.e. I still want to see 11/05/2009, but just in `general`format. Is it possible to create a macro that will do that? I want these values to stay in the same place, i.e. if it is in cell K10, I still want to have it there - just in other format.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an excel sheet full of dates in text format and want to convert them into regular format. For instance, one of the dates listed is in text as "60801". I'd like it to show in regular date format of mm/dd/yyyy, so that 60801 becomes 8/1/2006.
I have txtboxes in which I write date in format dd/mm/yyyy but if I want to put date in cell correctly from this textbox in need to declare event on exit -change format to mm/dd/yyyy and then it puts date in desired format which is dd/mm/yyyy and my regional settings are English(uk)
Is there a way to put any date format in textbox and in cell there will always be format dd/mm/yyyy or at least if date is entered in format dd/mm/yyyy that also in cell the same format is putted

The formula below is to change the fill colour of a date cell prior to the date expiring. The 120 value is number of days
=(E7-today())<=120
The problem i have is it only seems to work if i format the cell and use mmm-yy.
I want to use the same formula for dd-mm-yy..
See attached picture. In column I need A B C D… replace by 1 2 3 4…
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to turn millions (I'm guessing around 4-5 million, though I'm not completely sure since I don't have a program that can actually open the file completely since it's so large) of lines of text which are formatted like this:
05/15/09 09:45:01 AM 16600 1
into lines which are formatted like this:
20090515 094501;16600;1
I could do it by hand, but since there are literally millions of lines like this, it would probably take me about a year to do. So my questions are:
1. Is there a way to do this relatively quickly in Excel?
2. When I open this file in Excel, the year and time tabs aren't filled in with the year and time, but simply with "#######", though if I click on the cell, the year or time is displayed up in the "fx" function bar thing. Is there a way to keep these cells from displaying as "#######"?
3. Right now when I open the file (it's a CSV file), it only opens a little over 1 million of the lines, and an alert pops up that says the entire file was not opened. Is there any way to get the entire file to open? If not, how could I split the file into pieces that are small enough for Excel, and then how could I join those pieces back together?
I have a column with times in it, it seems to be formatted to HH:MM I would like to change this to HH:MM:SS but it will not seem to change at all by formatting the cells, does this mean I will need to go through each individual time and change it to the new format or is there some sort of work around?

when I do Format Cell, the date formats offered use US formats like 20/02/1999. Why does it do this, and can I fix it? I suspect that this the root of the following problem.
I have a button on a userform to enter today's date into a textbox. It enters it as 05/27/2009. The wrong format. I save the data to the worksheet, then use the data form to go to the next record, then back. The date then appears in the correct format as 27/05/2009.
Another related problem: if I enter a date manually into the textbox on the dataform, such as 2/3/2008, it interprets it as Feb. 3, and when I save it to the worksheet, and then use the form to view it, it comes out as 3/2/2008.
In column M, i have a long series of times (times of day) which are currently formatted as "1654", "1021", "1628", etc. In column AI, i need to reformat those dates to look like: "00:00:00.000"
What would the formula to accomplish that look like?

I have column A1 as 9/8/2012 11:00:00 AM. I would like to change it in the specific format as DD.MM.YYYY HH:MM, so I want it to read as exactly this way 08.09.2012 11:00.
I tried breaking the format as separate date and time n then joining back still no luck as when i delete columns A and B its a total disaster.
I simply want the DD.MM.YYYY HH:MM format
I'm trying to find a VBA code that will look through all my cells and any cell that equals a certain text, it will change the format to "strikethrough" and put a line through the text.
Can Attached code be changed to alter font colour,type. rather than just fill colour.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim icolor As Integer
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("e:Az")) Is Nothing Then
Select Case Target
Case "Ph"
icolor = 6
Case "Li"
icolor = 12
Case "O"
icolor = 7
Case "An"
icolor = 53

I am facing a problem with number formats. I have downloaded some data from a database. In the data, there are some date columns in MM/DD/YYYY format. In a seperate workbook, I have copied that data as values.
Now when I am trying to change the formats of the dates to d-mmm-yy, they don't change. The formats are not not changing to any other format. I even tried changing the formats using VBA, but it did not work.
I am having slight trouble with the formatting of some cells. Every month I will be copying data into a row, the problem is Excel thinks it's a date instead of an integer of some sort.
The value copied will look something like this:
79:42:00
(meaning 79 hours and 42 minutes)
Excel is taking that and interpreting it as:
1/3/1900 7:42:00 AM
Is there an easy way to format this so Excel thinks it's a number (even if 79.7).
I tried to change the format of the cell to "Text", but it changes it to: 3.32083333333333
