What formula or function truncates a text field that is in the following consistent format:
number. name
ie. 3. Super Bella
and 150. Taoist
I wish to truncate the field so I have just the integer without the dot, space or word(s).
Tried Len, Left & Replace but they require a specific number of characters. Since the number can be 1 to 3 digits long, this doesn't work.
How can I extract mid section of the string which is always 5 characters long and is always followed by a period "." ?
My account strings are in 3 sections (but the third section isn't always used)
For example,
1.10210
1.22556.001
900101.56201
955261.54444.001
5566625.58886.957756
I need a formula which can pick out the names from string of text, each name follows "-->", the number of names in each cell differs and is undefined. The result needs to be posted into each column following these cells.
An example of a cell is below:
"W/L FIGHTER Str TD Sub Pass EVENT METHOD ROUND TIME
Loss -->--> Tom Aaron -- -- -- -- Strikeforce - Hen... U. DEC 3 5:00
-->--> Matt Ricehouse -- -- -- -- Dec. 4, 2010
Win -->--> Tom Aaron -- -- -- -- Strikeforce - Hea... SUB 1 0:56
-->--> Eric Steenberg -- -- -- -- May. 15, 2010 Guillotine Choke"
I have tried using text to columns but everything after the first line is not recognised (when I click finish anything after "TIME" is simply not there).
Example attached : UFCv1.xlsx
I am attempting to make a macro for. It requires me to scan a column of cells worth of data (characters) for parts of what they contain and place those parts into a variable or string so that I can use an IF statement to place text in another cell.
I used to know someone who could do this via VBA, but I have been unable to reach him.
This sheet is fairly basic. The cells to be scanned are all in one column, they are all four digit numbers and I need to read the first two digits into separate variables.
Example: If the cell has "4101" in it, I want to be able to read the first digit "4" into one variable and the second digit "1" into another variable.
This way I can place text based on either one of those digits into the next cell over with an IF statement and can enclose it into a large loop to do the entire column.
I need to make a list of Part Numbers in quotation marks. If a number of digits of a P/N is less than 13 a number of space characters has to be added to make the string 13 characters long.
We have example P/N:
1234567890123
12345678
123456
should become:
"1234567890123(no extra space characters should be filled-13chars)"
"12345678(5 extra space characters here)"
"123456(7 extra space characters)"
Is there a function that inputs a cerain number of a specific character ("space" in this example)?
How to get Excel to select all cells within a specific column that contain a specific character. In this instance, I need to select all the cells which contain a comma...
And even better would be if I could get Excel to not just select all the cells in a specific column containing a comma, but each of the rows in which those cells reside.
I have a sheet with 200 sheets in called workbook x , I need to create a summary new workbook with only data on 1 sheet.
I want to pull specific cells from the large workbook x to 1 single sheet on a summary workbook:
A6 I want to be surname taken from B1 of workbook x
B6 will be first name taken from C1 of workbook x
Then I will copy data from M1 on mastersheet to cell C6 on new workbook
Then I want to copy Row A11 up to T11 and paste on the new workbook (Summary) in D6 staying in the row 6
Not sure if this is the tricky bit I want to repeat as above B11 to T11 but paste in the next empty cell of the same row of D in my summary
I need to repeat this action upto A23 to T23
Then I need it to move on to the next sheet in X and repeat all the steps above but do it on the next row down row 7 and so on
I have two questions regarding date format and hope you can provide input.
1) say 01/01/2010 displays as Jan-10 and i need a new column to state it as JAN. What function should i use to achieve it?
2) i need to state the difference between first day and last day of the month. What function should i use to achieve it?
I am using an exported dbf from filemaker pro. This is an established dbf, with over 2,000 sku's in it. Here is what I want to do.
I am using Indata and InDesign to create a catalog. I need for excel to pull the first character from a cell and put it in another cell. i.e.
I have a dbf where I have author last name, and title of book. I need for excel to pull the first character of each of these fields and put them in their own cell/column. This will allow me to use these new columns to make the " headers" for my InData/InDesign doc.

Basically I have a number in column A, just wondering is that any faster to allocate the number into individual cell as shown in the attached file.
I want to find the total number of times the number 1 appears in cells B2 to B33.
In each cell I have codes such as 4919409382a, 5021193035v and so on.
I have tried =COUNTIF(B2:B33,"1") but just get 0 returned.
Formula to pull the lowest number that falls in Cells I2:L2 and the number must be 0 or Greater. Some of the numbers might be negatives and I am trying not to pull those numbers.

I have a cell in my worksheet with a fully qualified filename like 'D:abcDefGHIJklxyz123.app
I would like to extract only the xyz123.app. Obviously, the number of characters is going to vary based on the filename. The find and search functions appear to locate the cell but not the substring in the text. The right and left appear to work based on number of characters and in my case these are varying. Also, there does not appear to be any function that can do a search a string from right to left.

I have a column that has various codes such as "E123" and "X456" and "S345". I just want to extract the numbers and leave the letters in each cell. How do you write a formula using the LEFT function to extract the last three numbers?

I have as an example two products. One called PORAW VC and the other PORAW WC30
I need to extract from the 7th character (in this case) to the end of the string. The string length always changes and to complicate matters some products dont have a space in their name.
eg PORTP060DUS ( here I want to extract just the 060DUS )
PORAW VC (Just need to extract VC)
PORAW WC30 (Just need to extract WC30)
I suppose this is some sort of dynamic extraction
I need to extract the text located before last specified character () From C:PicturesPersonalChristmasDSC_00001.jpg ----> C:PicturesPersonalChristmas
I found a nice formula in another thread but that one returns the text located after the last "". The formula is =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND("@",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"","@",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"","")))))
I have the function below from http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/extract-words-function.htm
and have it working exactly as it's supposed to. Is it possible to adapt this to remove the last character of the text string, specifically the commas? My problem is that the raw data in one cell is like this (including commas) 0.333, 5.8874, 6.85423, 0.025. I separate each text string into separate cells but am left with the commas. I'm not using the "Data Text to Columns" option as I need the results in specific cells so they can then be used in calculations.
Function Get_Word(text_string As String, nth_word) As String
Dim lWordCount As Long
With Application.WorksheetFunction
lWordCount = Len(text_string) - Len(.Substitute(text_string, " ", "")) + 1
If IsNumeric(nth_word) Then
nth_word = nth_word - 1
Get_Word = Mid(Mid(Mid(.Substitute(text_string, " ", "^", nth_word), 1, 256), _
. Find("^", .Substitute(text_string, " ", "^", nth_word)), 256), 2, _
.Find(" ", Mid(Mid(.Substitute(text_string, " ", "^", nth_word), 1, 256), _ ............................
Say for example I have ABCD-ABC12 basically an arbitrary length of alpha (A-Z) characters followed by an hypen "-" followed by another arbitrary length of alpha (A-Z) characters and then
immediately followed by an arbitrary length of numbers. (with no spaces between alpha and number)
How can I extract just the numbers from the group of alphanumberic characters after the hyphen
and set it to a LONG variable?
I basically I have a column with numbers. All the numbers are positive integers. What I like to do is have a VBA function that extracts the integers with the largest number of digits. So for example if we have the following column:
12
123
234
12346
2345
[code].....
So basically we search for largest number of digits, and extract the numbers that fit this category, which could be just one number or multiple numbers.
I can do this in Excel, but I don't seem to have a single example to hand of how, using VBA, to extract all characters up to but not including, the first space character in a cell.

=SUM(COUNTIF(sales1!$B$8:$F$11,A18),COUNTIF(sales2!$B$8:$F$11,A18),COUNTIF(sales!$A$8:$B$11,A18))

I have a similar question regarding coloring of empty cells between two cells with specific numbers as posted in below thread : [URL] .....
This is exactly what I want. But here I have some problem with formula.
=COUNTIF(A1:Z1,1)=1
Above formula could pick cell value 1 and color the empty cells in a row between the cells having value=1. But if I want to use the same formatting for other numbers like 2 or 3 it doesn't work.
For example in row(A1:Z1) I have A1=1, D1=1, and F1=2, K1=2, and O1=3, U1=3
I required multiple conditional formatting that could color the cells based on values first from A to D then from F to K and finally from O to U.
I'm using above formatting it works with cells having values 1 but its not working for 2, 3 or any other cells values.
I have already tried replacing 1 in above formula with 2 and 3 but it doesn't work.

This is column a and b. Looking at b I am looking for a formula that will pull the first capital letter out of each word like ACR to create color codes.
Any method for colour highlighting a row (specific number of cells) as and when any cell of that row is selected, and return to normal when deselected.

I tried to play with the LEN and RIGHT/LEFT formula but so far, I can't get it to work... The idea is to parse some text and remove the part in red (I was thinking about using SUBSTITUTE).
