Fix Random Numbers Generated With RAND
Is there a way to control the number generation. I would like to be able to run different scenarios with the same set of random numbers, then regenerate the random numbers and do it again. Right now every time I do anything in the spreadsheet, I get a new set of numbers.

Cleaning Up Phone Numbers With VBA
I am using VBA to enter customer information into a Microsoft SQL database. I have an excel sheet with thousands of customers listed. I will be using a While loop to process each line of the sheet. Part of the While loop needs to make any format changes necessary before the data moves over to the DB. So here is the issue: How do I turn the following phone numbers: (410) 273-9200 910-944-1232 276 623 4254 410 612 1100 Rob (413) 786-1636 Cindy 1-800-783-4661 304) 842-5491 Sherry Into a uniform layout? I would prefer ###-###-#### Each of the numbers above is an example from the list I have. There may be more variations (I have over 20 seperate lists to process, with over 10000 customers per list) I imagine I need some process that will remove all character except numbers and then break the numbers up to add the hyphens back in at the appropriate places.

Find And Replace Phone Numbers
I have a bunch of phone numbers that I'm trying to reformat. Say I wanted to replace any phone number like this: 1########## With this: ########## Keeping the numbers intact, just getting rid of the 1 in front of them. Can't figure it out for the life of me.

Columns To Phone Numbers Format
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.

Using Vlookup To Find Phone Numbers Online
How can I create a vlookup function to automatically retrieve phone numbers off switchboard.com using my current mailing list? I have a list of more than 4,000 of my customers.

Finding Country Based On Phone Numbers
I have a list of mobile phone numbers from various countries. However, I do not know which country each entry is from. Ideally I would like to have a macro that looks at each number, compares to a global list of PSTN structure to determine which part of the phone number is the country code (generally the first 1-3 digits), and then put the country in a separate column. I am certain all numbers are formatted correctly, so it is only a matter of finding out which part is the country code and putting a value for the country.

Formula Or Macro To Fix Phone Numbers
I came up with this formula trying to fix phone number but it’s not working properly FORMULA: =TEXT(LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(a1, "-", "") & "00##", 10), "###-###-00##") So basically I need a formula or macro that will fix the phone number for me. Here is an example 78512312 it should be like this 785-123-0012 Or 785123123 it should be like this 785-123-0123. So if Len is 8 numbers long then insert two zeros counting from right to left. So if Len is 9 numbers long then insert one zeros counting from right to left.

Reference Function: Pickup Groups And Members Of Each Group From A Phone System
I have the following worksheet, which lists the pickup groups and members of each group from a phone system. Another worksheet lists all the exts and I want to have some sort of VLOOKUP, MATCH function that will look at the ext number and come back with the pickup group number. I've attached a copy of the spreadsheet to show you what I'm talking about. So looking at the spreadsheet if I have an ext number of 8001 I want to return the value of 2 as ext 8001 is a member of pickup group 2. Also of an ext is not a member of any group, then I want to return nothing.

I have a frequency list (frequency per year) resulted from previous calculation. What I want is to generate random number as many as the frequency in the specified year, so that every year I will get the same amount of random numbers as the frequency. It is kind of the opposite of FREQUENCY function (but with random numbers involved). I need to use the result for further calculation.

Generate Random Numbers In Random Cells
I am working on a Random Cycle Count Generator that provides random SKU#s based on 3 separate columns of SKU listings. The user clicks a button to generate the SKU#s to cycle count for that day. What I would like to see is a date stamp in the columns next(B,D,F) to the referenced SKU listing(A,C,E) based on which SKU#s are generated. This will let me see the last date that the SKU was generated. I would also like it to automatically save after generating.

Function To Test For Whole Numbers
I have a resolution calculator that I am working on. You put your original resolution in say 1440x1080 then below you put in any one of the new target resolutions. Place 720 in the height and you get a message that says "960 is your new matching Width resolution" Id like to follow up on that with an if statment that test to see if the cell is blank if it is then null, if not then test 960 in this case to see if 960/16 = a non decimal number. So in the cell to the right of that sentence it would return the result "and 960 is 16 pixel safe" something like that. I can probably figure out how I will handled the cell arrangement, numbers, and text I just for now need to find a way to do a test on whole numbers and return a text value (my guess is an if statement)

Can You Use MAX Function On Numbers/text?
I am trying to use the "MAX" function to find the max temp on a particular day in a week from 7 separate sheets. The problem I have is one particular company autopopulates their temperature block with the temp and degree symbol: 46°F instead of just 46. The max function is thrown off it appears by the symbol and letter. Is there a way to get the max function to only look at the numbers? I'm also open to the option of autoconverting each temp to a number on the master sheet and letting the "MAX" function search through those if that's possible.

Phone Toll Formulas
I had two formulas for working with phone tolls. I moved offices a while back and can not find the disk I burned them to, and I cant remember them. One of the formulas was like this: If the cell contains and or equals target number than put “incoming” (and/or if not than “outgoing”) in this (a different) cell. I also had a formula that if the phone numbers came in 3 columns i.e. area code in one column, prefix in a second column and the last four digits in a third column, would combine all the numbers in one cell.

4 Column Phone List
I have just created a phone list of about 70 lines on a single A4 sheet A B C D Name No Name No One of the PA's now wants to know if she deletes a Name and No from say column A & B can I make it all reconfigure to eliminate the blank spce. So basically names fill column A & B first then overflow onto Columns C & D. I think a macro is the only way to go here but the PA isn't keen.
