I am working with a spreadsheet and rather new to be VBA. How do I select a range that only has data. I currently have the following macro, but when I run it, it checks every cell in the active worksheet which cause the application to hang. I would like it to automatically select only cells that have data in them ignoring all empty cells. I need this to be an automatically process running without the user selecting a range of data.
Here is my code ..
I have a cel that has about 100,000 phone numbers and at the end of some and before sum, there are spaces added to end. is there a formula, or a way to take everything away except for the 10 digit number?

I have tried "Text to Columns", "Trim", and other suggestions in previously threads.
I have copied bank statement amounts from an e-mail and the $ amounts have one Space in front of them. When I use the Trim function, and then a paste special, I still cannot get rid of the space, and so cannot add up the amounts in this column.
Ex:
*7 Dec 2007*DEPOSIT*3,917.63
*7 Dec 2007*DEPOSIT*1,890.58
I have a column of data in which each cell contains a line of text. Each line of text has spaces after the letters end and there doesn't seem to be a consistent number of trailing spaces.
I can clean up the data using the TRIM function but is it possible to use the TEXT TO COLUMNS functionality?
See attached. I want to use column A to create column B (the expected result) by way of a formula. Index?

I have an excel file with two sheets . One containing the updated prices with its code ( Sheet1) and the other containing the old prices with the same codes (sheet2). Now after several trials to copy the new prices from sheet 1 to sheet 2 with check if the code is same . ( I couldn't )
So how to get rid of the 20 spaces from Sheet1 column A.
I have written a function which works in the same way as the concatenate formula but where required it uses an underscore to make up the length (14 Characters) of the result. I seem however to have hit a minor snag when users input trailing spaces. I thought I could use trim to eliminate them but it doesnt seem to be working

I'm trying to use the SUBSTITUTE function to remove spaces from my cells in column A. The trouble is My formula is removing all the spaces from the cell. My formula is: SUBSTITUTE(A1," ","")
I do however have many cells that contain a space between characters 5 and 7 and spaces at the end of the cell which have been padded out to 15 characters long.Its only the spaces at the end of the cells I need to remove.
I have a macro that I run after selecting a column which removes spaces. However, it processes all 65536 rows and I only want it to process the cells with values. I need to enter into an input a column and then it just removes spaces from the cells with values

If I have ABC DEF in a1, is there a formula I can put in a2 to remove the space and display ABCDEF
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn Column A, I have several rows of data. Some cells contain numbers and some contain text and some are blank. In Column C, I only want the numbers in Column A. I do not want the text and I cannot have any gaps in the column.
So for example:
Column A: row 1: 456 row 2: 789 row 3: text row 4: text row 5: 398 row 6: text row 7: blank row 8: 124
in Column C I need:

I have in a range several numbers that contain extra spaces and therefore these are recognized as text.
This is how the numbers would look : " 123.234.567"
How to remove the extra spaces and the points (as otherwise this will also be recognized as text)?
I am trying to do a vlookup. I receive a report that gives the data as hyperlinks. I run a macro to remove the hyperlinks. I'm then left with a name that i want to match using a vlookup to get other data. The names are Chinese characters. I have tried using trim and clean function but its still leaving a space after the name. If i fo in manually and delete the space at the end the vlookup works fine. How to remove the spaces? i have about 5000 rows.

The below code removes trailing spaces, but for some reason it does not remove space from this, i clicked F2 and the space is still there, why does it work on some but not others?

I am doing a vlookup on fields such as 02-0223. In one table, there is a space at the end of 02-0223 and in the other table, there is no space. How can I delete the space so the numbers match in vlookup?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI use a program that can export data into Excel. For the most part, it works fine. except it doesn't correctly handle dates. For some reason, when it pastes a date into excel it includes 8 or 9 (depending if the month is 1 or 2 digits) spaces in front of the date which makes calculations with these dates impossible unless you go into each cell and delete the spaces (or do Find / Replace).
Is there a way I can create a non-VBA formula that will reference any one of these cells and some how identify what the date is & then that cell can be the date I can calc on? I.e., A1 is the date with the spaces in front, B2 is the cell that will reference A1 and produce, as the contents of B2, the date in A1. I can then use B2 in calculations.
Note: the month formats possible are: M/DD/YY (Jan. - Sept.) & MM/DD/YY (Oct. - Dec.). There are no other variations.
I am trying to use the trim function to remove unwanted spaces at the beginning of cells that contain an address. The entire column contains spaces prior to the street number/name.
View 14 Replies View RelatedAny easy way to remove all spaces from a cell, both leading and trailing? I find it hard to believe that Excel doesn't have this functionality. I don't particulary want to write a VBA script since I have never done it but if that's the only way, I'd love to know how to write it. I have looked everywhere but obviously not in the right places.

how to remove multiple leading and trailing spaces while leave spaces in the middle of the string in place? I have tried text to columns but this does not remove the multiple spaces.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a macro which opens one excel file, then copies the data into another, dead easy. However the first file is 'downloaded' from a bespoke package, where (for whatever reason) the package appends a number of spaces (" ") after data in one of the columns,
So sometimes the data will contain one, ten or more extra spaces (no telling how many) ie, it could look like "AB ", "AB ", or "AB " etc
Ideally What i need is a small bit of code that once the data has been imported to my sheet it can run and 'strip' extra spaces from the column, lets say column f, to leave all the data in this column to look like:
"AB"
"AF"
"CD1"
"VFE"
I am drawing a blank, any simple lines of code?
I am trying to get rid of the spaces at the beginning of text that is the result of a download from a reporting software package. I am using the Trim function but it does not work. It seems that it has something to do with the formatting. The first set of data of the download looks as follows:
SalesSales BreakdownSolenaceousCucurbitsLargeSeedIf I overtype the text in exactly the same way (thus keeping the spaces at the beginning), the trim function works. But this is not a practical solution.
The type of the cells is "2". I have tried copying the data as values to a different workbook but this does not help either.
cell A1 has " HH001 " (without "", there is space infront and behind the data),
cell B1 has "motor gear case",
what formula to put in cell C1 to get like this "HH001" (removed spaces in A1)
and D1 to get like this, "[HH001] motor gear case"
in creating a macro that will remove all frontspaces, trailing spaces from entire sheet + remove characters like (), *,-, &, @,/,',;,. from columns E and F,
in col E and F there should either be string or numbers, everything else should be removed.
I wrote a tool that people at work use. They initially need to paste in a bunch of customer locations with Address, City, State, Zip, etc. Sometimes the Users have "bad input" data that has non-breaking spaces, multiple space between words, or leading and trailing spaces and nonbreaking spaces. I have code to get rid of all of those problems. However, the Users often use their data for other important functions at work. So I want to give them a message to let them know that their Original Data is "bad".
So instead of just "Fix" . . . I want to "Report the problem", then "Fix". I need to identify exactly what problem was found - not just tell the User that their data is bad.
I wrote a simple Search routine with error handling that identifies 2 of the 4 cases and notifies the User:
Case 1) ASCII 160 (non-breaking space, HTML  
Case 2) multiple spaces (2 or more consecutive spaces)
Case 3) Leading or Trailing Spaces (ASCII 032)
Case 4 Leading or Trailing non-breaking spaces (ASCII 160, which is HTML  )
I cannot quite figure out how to find the 3rd and 4th Cases. If anyone can help me with Case 4 especially, then I can probably do the same thing for Case 3.
I think it will work to somehow use this idea - the code is not even real code but it is just conceptual:
RIGHT(CellReference, 1) = Char(160) or Char(032)
LEFT(CellReference, 1) = Char(160) or Char(032)
Anyway, here is what I have so far . . .
Sub NotifyBadInput
ErrorFlag = False
Cells.Select ' select entire worksheet
' BAD INPUT 1 - lLook for any occurence of ASCII 160 (non-breaking space, HTML  )
' and Notify the User if any of his Input cells contain  's
On Error Goto errormsg1
Selection.Find(What:="", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
I have a UserForm with a ComboBox on it. The RowSource for this ComboBox is a named range called rInv. rInv has rows broken down by day and 105 columns broken down by items. The rows are broken bown to 31 day sections with 27 possible customer/Invoices per day. Most days have between 2 to 20 Customer/Invoices, which leaves anywhere from 7 to 25 blank entries per day. These blanks spaces won't allow the user to scroll past the 1st days Customers/Invoices!
Is there any code to remeve the empty spaces from being seen by the ComboBox RowSource? (I can't actually remove the spaces, they need to remain)
