Format The Downloaded Data

Feb 15, 2010

I often download data from various web sites - this is data that is displayed on a web page in tabular format, and often consists of hundreds of lines. I typcally Select All, then Copy, then go to a blank spreadsheet and Paste. After a bit of reformatting, I'm usually in good shape. The problem is, that sometimes the contents of a cell might have been "5-2" (without the quotes), and it comes through on Excel as "May 2". Without proofing each cell, I can't just make the assumption that the original was "5-2" - it might have been "5-2-10" (but not a date).

The normal Paste Special options are not available when I do this, so I can't paste them in as values. I have tried formatting the worksheet at text prior to doing the copy but that does not work.

Text To Columns With Data Downloaded From Website?

Jun 14, 2013

I have a problem with text to columns with data downloaded from our website. The address field is coming through with the whole address in a single cell with multiple rows. I have tried the following but all I get is the first row in the first colimn and the rest of the data:

Text to Columns, Delimited, Other and ALT-0010
Text to Columns, Delimited, Other and ALT-010
Text to Columns, Delimited, Other and ctrl-j

I have even created a macro to replace the hard returns with commas and then use comma as a delimiter but that still does the same.

I have attached a file with two of the records (1 tab for the original data and one with the commas)

Finally, I have tried this in both 2003 & 2010 and get the same issue in both.

Reformat Citrix Data

Jan 8, 2007

Im currently working with some data output from citrix and am finding that the system generated reports are not very user friendly. The format of the reports is as below (example only contains five products. The real report contains 500+ product IDs).

System Report Format.xls

Can anyone suggest a macro that copies and pastes data from the system generated report to a diff worksheet with a format such as attached:

New Format.xls

The challenge is that each of the product codes in the system generated report have two rows of data (recommended orders & open orders). Will it be possible to have the macro to SUM up the values in the same period of time in the new worksheet under the new format?

Additional Info:

1) Number of product codes changes monthly

Macro To Reformat Data

Feb 20, 2007

In Cell A1 I have a company name which I wish to keep in cell B1 I have company address data I wish to keep and in cell B2 I have more address data which I wish to move to cell C1. Once this cells data has been moved I need to delete the two empty rows and then perform the same process on the next chunk of company data which is in the same format as the above and so until the end of the entries - sometimes potentially there could be hundreds of entries. I have attached an example of my problem - in the 'Original' worksheet is data in the form that I recieve and need to re-format. In the 'Fixed' worksheet is data in the format which I would like to have a macro to change it.

Macro: Reformat Layout Of Data

Nov 16, 2006

I would like to state how fantastic a resource this forum has been to me as a beginner. So keep up the good work! The issue I have is that my spreadsheet contains one column which shares two types of data: Component Type and Tag Number. What I would like the script to do is:

1. create a new column
2. move the Tag Number data from its current column into the newly created column
3. ensure that the data is still on the same row as it was previously

One thing to bear in mind is that the tag numbers consists of various formats (spaces/no spaces), but always begin and end with brackets - "(XTU U-532-934)". I have included and example of the current state of the data and what I would like to look like after.

Reformat Badly Laid Out Data

Dec 1, 2007

I have a sheet that has multiple records of the same recurring format (see attached .xls) from which I must extract data from the same groups of cells in each record (highlighted in yellow for example purposes) and export to a columnar format in another sheet. The only variable with the format is where we get into the amount of people on the plane and thus the line may shift down one or two spaces. I would like to just pull the data for the same person's name from each record as well. What is the easiest way to go about doing this?

VBA Code To Copy Data And Reformat It Between Two Workbooks

Jun 16, 2014

I'm trying to write code in Airport1.xlsm to allow me to create a macro to automatically copy data from Airport-Data.xlsm and reformat it to what is needed in Airport1.xlsm.

Basically I need the code to take each airport in column A of Airport-Data and where there is a non-zero value in rows column C to G I need it to clear the appropriate column in Airport1.xlsm and add a 1 to the appropriate box.

I got stuck thinking about the nested For Next Cell in range procedure and how to execute it with a search for the correct row in Airport1.xlsm.

Looping Macro To Reformat Data From One Sheet To Another

Mar 17, 2009

I'm using Excel 2003, version 11 and am trying to reformat data from one sheet to another. What I would like to do is copy the rows for each team from the Input sheet (Input tab) and and use them to build rows on the Output sheet (Output tab) for each possible combination of players.

In my attached example, a three person team has three combinations and a five player team has ten combinations and so on. I know this is probably a loop within a loop but I can't seem to get the right combination. Not all teams are full yet so the number of players on a team will vary. I need macro code to make the input sheet look the output sheet.

Reformat Table Layout Containing Repeated Data

Sep 7, 2006

Rows 1 to 12 of the attached .jpg file shows the format that I receive from a University. However, in order to check enrolments, etc., I would prefer it to be in the format as shown on rows 15 to 19, that is, one complete student record per row.

As you can see, not all students are studying the same number of subjects and the subject mix is also different.

.....Building____________________Plant______________1,000,000

Spreadsheet 2

No Cells Appear In Downloaded Spreadsheet

Jun 19, 2014

The government was just kind enough to send me some data I asked for in the form of a spreadsheet. Came in a Yahoo email. Document was blahblah.xls

I downloaded it.

Clicked and Excel opened it without any error messages.

What I see is one white bar in the spreadsheet section. It has three sections where you would have three columns.

On the left it says F279, which I take to be the cell address.

Then to the right of that there's a sort of elongated blue button with 'fx' written on it and a dot at the left end that I can use to grasp it and slide it left and right.

To the right of that it says 6169, which is the content of some cell.

Hover over a couple of these things and it says 'name box' and 'formula bar' at different times (sometimes I can't get it to do it.)

There's data there. I can't do it now but somehow the first time I opened it I was able to scroll one or the other column (i.e. one at a time only) up and down and see there was content there.

Is this thing fixable or should I get back to them and ask for a rerun? I would delete this is I could but it doesn't seem to offer that choice.

Did a 'print preview' and after that it came up in normal view. Well, nearly, it was down at the bottom of the screen but I was able to drag it up and now I've got it.

VLookup In Reports Downloaded From SAP & AS400

Nov 29, 2006

Report 1 is downloaded from SAP into Excel and Report 2 is downloaded from AS400 into Excel.

Report1 contain 3 columns as follows:
Column A - Invoice #
Column B - Invoice date
Column C - Invoice Amt

Report2 contain 5 columns as follows:
Column A - Invoice #
Column B - Ship Date
Column C - Check #
Column D - Amt Paid
Column E - Payment date

I tried to use the Vlookup function in Report 1 Column D to lookup the matching Invoice # in report 2 and bring in the corresponding Amt paid. It did not work and I assume that this is because of the formats in the downloaded files. I did try to change formats for the columns involved but this did not work. This function works fine if both files were setup in Excel, however in these downloaded files even though saved as excel workbooks, something prevents this function from working. I do know for a fact that the same invoice number does show up in both these files but the vlookup does not pull up the required Amt paid from Report 2.

Reformat Date String In Vba

I m trying to use a variable that is declared as a range in a formula. GroupCategory is the name of the sheet its getting the data from. I want to use myRange instead of actually putting in the range. I know there's something wrong where I highlighted in red.

Dim myRange As range
Lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Set myRange = Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(Lastrow - 1, 1))
Sheets("sheet1").Select
Range("L2").Formula = "= SUM(INDEX(GroupCategory '!' & myRange,,MATCH(C1,GroupCategory!$A$1:$ AI$1,0)))"

Reformat Range Into A New Workbook

Jun 18, 2008

I have a fairly simple problem that my typical method of recording a macro and editing it isn't working for. What I'd like to be able to do is point a macro to a certain spreadsheet, and have it reformat the text of that sheet into a new workbook. I get new sheets from a customer each week, so the name of the sheet isn't constant. The process isn't too difficult to do by hand, but the sheet I'm trying to reformat is typically 30 lines or so of data, which is cumbersome to do manually line-by-line.

I've attached a sheet with a sample of what the data starts out looking like and what it should look like in the end. My goal is to take a single row of data and turn it into a check sheet so that there's a check box between each part number and each process. The number of parts can be anywhere from 6 to 17, but the number and types of processes is always the same.

Convert Downloaded Web Page Numbers Seen As Text To Numbers

Jan 16, 2008

See attached file. A colleague is downloading rows of data from a website which contains a number field Excel is currently treating as Text after being pasted in. My spreadsheet includes just a sample of the many rows of data however as you can see the VALUE function refuses to convert these text values to numbers. How these might be converted and why the VALUE function refuses to work in this case?
