Programing Cell To Allow Numeric Data Only
Mar 7, 2007how format or programing any cell for only accept numeric value and not alphanumeric value.
how format or programing any cell for only accept numeric value and not alphanumeric value.
I am trying to do is extract the volume size of products in 'ml'
from 10k plus products from a description field cell.
this description field could also contain the weight of the product in grams
so I cannot just do a search for a numeric string ,
it has to be associated with the milli-litres statement .
is is possible to do a sort of ' *ml ' search and then select and copy to another cell ???
I have a data import from our client something like this:
a1:12/11/2009 shoe bags blank-** $700.00 $0.00 $3,949.00
How can i delete all the numeric data in the cell?
i need only the text: shoe bags blank-** in a2
How do you shade a cell based on multiple ranges of data? e.g. A value of...
1 shades red
2-3 shades orange
4-5 shades yellow
6 shades green
I have a question about using conditional formatting in excel (2010); I made a table with the following columns:
"Supplier Name" "Supplier Lead Time" "Internal Lead Time" "Total Lead Time". I made two different scenarios to show different supplier lead times and different internal lead times, and used the minimum function in the "Total Lead Time" column to find the smallest total lead time to select the best supplier.
The last thing I would want to do with this set of data, is plug in a formula that would somehow indicate which supplier corresponds to the shortest total lead time (which supplier has the smallest supplier lead time). I'd like to be able to use a formula that enters the name of the supplier in a designated cell, which I could indicate as the "Preferred Supplier" cell. If this is not possible perhaps there is a way to highlight the supplier's name with conditional formatting?
I have a column of several thousand entries listed as numeric with a scientific symbol eg.
1.4mSv
19.53mSv/1mSv (some have a mix and or alpha/numeric range)
I want to convert them to the numeric value only. I'm extracting to a chart which is not recognising the alpha and throwing the data out. I tried find and replace, trying various options within the 'replace format' tab with no joy.
I have a few thousand products codes (i.e ABCD123BLA08 or SHU267BLA) They are non standardised in length or structure. I wish to pull out everything upto the end of the third numeric digit.( ie ABCD123 and SHU267) I cannot use left as they are all different lengths. Ideally i would serach for a non numeric char after the number then use left up to that point. Search can't do this, FIND can't do this.
Summary
ABCD123BLA08 would be ABCD123
SHU246BLU would be SHU246
I147ORT08-12 would be I147
I have some code that goes through some data that is imported from a database via a query.
This has been working for a few years without a problem.
I lookup and employee number on my sheet to the employee number in the database table.
this is my code that checks the employee number.
Set rs = Worksheets("Employee")
If rs. Cells(r, 2) = cells(1,1) Then 'if employee number matches
......
The problem is that now the database application has adapted an alpha option (it used to be numeric only). In order for my code to work I have to change the employee number on my sheet by putting a ' in front of it.
Example if the number was 127 I need to enter '127 in the cells.
I have a few thousand in my data.
Can I add some code to my macro so I can still enter just the number in the cells?
I have a column that has cells with values as
19352510
C084111X AA
24253081
A001290U AA
19599291
48413321
I want to write an If Statement is a column next to each entry that denotes two options either Broker or Agent. Where the code is say 19352510 then Broker and where it is say C084111X AA then Agent.
Broker codes will never contain a letter. The Agent code will always start and finish with a letter.
I am trying to create a macro that will essentially "pivot" some non-numerical data I have. One column contains data with leading zeros. I need to retain these leading zeros. The attached document has two tabs; one that displays how the data comes into excel titled "Data" and one titled "Desired Output" with the desired output from the macro.

I am trying to slim down my database results in Excel via MS Query by searching for Part ID's that are numeric (we have parts that also contain letters....I want to weed those out).
In all my searching on the web, I thought the ISNUMERIC() function should be the function for this, but I keep getting an ORA-00904::"ISNUMERIC":invalid identifier....
Is this function supposed to work or is there another function that will do this
This is my SQL statement so far, which works to get parts that are 6 characters long only:
SELECT PART.ID
FROM SYSADM.PART PART
WHERE (LENGTH(PART.ID)=6)
When I change it to this to get parts that are numeric, it gives the error above:
SELECT PART.ID
FROM SYSADM.PART PART
WHERE (LENGTH(PART.ID)=6) AND (ISNUMERIC(PART.ID)=1)
I need to be able to take a string & remove all non numeric data. If I had "(123) 456-7890" I would want it to return "1234567890".
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a combo box where I select "Income" or "Expense". In relation to that, In the next column called "Category", I use the offset formula in "Validation". Depending on whether I choose Income or Expense, I will get different dropdown options for "Category". What I want to do is if I choose Expense, in the column named "Amount" beside category, I want to have it so that it places the numbers in brackets or simply a negative sign. Just as reference, I use the SUM function to total up the numbers at the bottom of the sheet.

I have a somewhat challanging task and have looked in all my vba books for a solution but am coming up blank. I am have a text file with just numbers in it and i need to extract each number and input it into an array so i can manipulate them from there. I have tried "for each" and " loop" statements but cannot get it to work.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to convert numeric data to proper dates. Example: a cell currently reads 100875 but I need it to display 10/08/1975.
I've already found a VBA script that properly formats new data as you enter it (keying 1298 results in 1/2/1998), and I'm familiar with using =DATE(left,mid,right) to coerce Excel into spitting out a date in a certain format.
The difficulty I'm having is that I need to make existing data display correctly, without adding another column to accommodate reinterpretation of said existing data through a formula. Essentially I'm looking to avoid having to re-key several thousand date entries.
In column A I have alpha-numeric data similar to:
2
A1
3
A20
A186
B4
B13
1
C5
C3
And I need to sort them so that they are like:
1
2
3
A1
A20
A186
B4
B13
C3
C5
With the numbers first, in ascending order. Then the letters, grouped by letter ascending, and the number following them. But I can't have it where it looks at the first number after the letter (A1,A186,A20). It has to look at the WHOLE number and then sort it.

Just like. [A1]=B(C1-content)

I have the following issue:

The above formula does not return any value and it simply appears as it is keyed. Cell AR85 has 5. I know it is something to with this cell, but I cannot fix it. In fact the whole Column AR has these values downloaded. I tried "text to columns" but it still doesn't work.
I have compiled data from accross my branches, where in a 14 digit voucher number has been fed into the system along with data. The problem is that there is no unique format as this voucher number is fed in free format area.

i need to extract this consignment number from the cell value. for example,
A10 Contains "voucher No 12345678901234 paid"
A11 Contains "spl cons 15454563218921 thru person"
A12 Contains "incurred for recurring exp 45678932145826"

'From the top down
If IsEmpty(Range("A1")) Then
Range("A1").Select
Else
Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
End Sub
I would like to change this to find the first non-numeric cell (technically the column i'm searching is dates, but i assume those are seen as being numerical). I tried to change this line:
If IsEmpty(Range("A1")) Then

If IsNumeric(Range("A1")) Then
But as many of you know it didn't work (i also tried variations of IsNumeric(Range("A1")).Value=True
Is it possible to validate a string with both numbers and text with a formula using data validation? (I don't want to use a User Defined Function)
in Column C, Starting in cell C2 I have a 12 character string of six numbers, four letters, and two numbers. like this:
280838ZNOV11
is it possible to use a Custom Data Validation formula to ensure the user follows this format?
I'm working on spreadsheet where I have to match the data on two columns, and then count how many times that same number appears on both columns (see below table) In this below sample, I should get total of 3. (23654 , 12345 and 57963).
