Given 5 rows in column A, I have strings that has the word 'Qty' and some none. For any string that has the word 'Qty', I want the numeric value before it. For string that doesn't have the word 'Qty', I want it to be 1. My question is, how should I added the numeric string without a helper column?

I am trying to create what should be a unique string.
I figured the easiest way to do this would be to use the value given by Now().
However I can't find out how to actually get the result of Now() as a number.
If on a spreadsheet I put in a cell: =Now() and then format that cell as 'General' it gives me the number I am trying to get programatically.
I tried:
IDMacro Out Put
X11891189
cdecde
CONFRCONFR
175175
D0101101
I ahve a sheet having two column one is "ID" and other is "Macro Out Put" as shown above , is that possible with VBA code that it give the same result as i shown above in column "Macro Out Put". for reference i also attch the file
say I have a string that looks like this
C:Documents and Settingsme[test 2-2006.xls]Sheet1
I want to extract the DATE prior to .xls. I can get to this:
C:Documents and Settingsme[test 2-2006
It is possible that the filename would have numbers in it prior to the date.
I'm trying to figure out a way to get to the last SPACE in the string.
I have the following data.
Column A is for ID and column B is for Notes.
I need find a formula that will extract the number that is highlighted in red and place it in column C. Would this be possible?

My colleague has a problem where he needs to Extract numbers from alphanumberic strings. Here is the formula he is using:
=MID(B7,MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(1*MID(B7,ROW($1:$297),1)),0),COUNT(1*MID(B7,ROW($1:$297),1)))
It works if alphabetic and numbers are clustered together such as scs987
It works if alphabetic and numbers are not clustered together such as scs987dtg
Problem: It does not work when numbers are not clustered together such as scs987dtg1234

I'm trying to extract alphanumeric data before and after a numeric string. The numeric string is in the middle of a URL, which is a varying distance from the start and end.
Here's a sample of my data:

I start with just column A and generate the other three from that.
I'm using some excellent code from a Mr Excel guru (thanks again Peter) to extract the 8-digit numeric string in column B, I just need C (after) and D (before).
That macro is:
Dim Bits
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Long
For Each c In Range("A4", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))....................
I have a sizable spreadsheet, which has one column where the cells are mostly numeric strings of up to 6 numbers - there are variations, which I will mention.
What I need to do, is to treat the numbers as individual figures, and add them, then divide by the number of figures. e.g. cell value '123456' I need to process as (1+2+3+4+5+6)/6.
The variations are that '0' has to be added as 10, and any letters need to be added as 12. '-' and '/' which are the only non-alphanumeric values should be ignored.
Extract Numeric Part From The String End with a macro, that J8 will turn 8, and R4 will turn 4.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have some code where I need to check if the first five char are numbers and not letters.
I have in a column for example
12345-someone is here
23456-someone else is here
someone is here too
I need to get all of the ones that have 5 digits and not pull in the other into a new list.
I have tried Left(CPHierAll. Cells(CPHierAllRow, 1),5) which will get me the fist 5 char. and then i need to check to make sure that they are all numbers and not char.
if Left(CPHierAll.Cells(CPHierAllRow, 1),5) = "#####" then
But this does not bring anything in.
I also tried if CPHierAll.Cells(CPHierAllRow, 1),5) = "#####" then
I have 3 column that i am checking for different thinks the first two work just find and seperate out on the check but the last one with the numbers is being a pain.
I have created a macro that searches for an existing part in my worksheet and copies the found part to the row above. I would like to increment the value of cells B and H in the new copied row. Both cells contain an alphanumeric string that ends with a numeric value. For example cell B has a string like this "APL-DK0030" and cell H has a string like this "Dell Optiplex GX260 V09"....
View 9 Replies View RelatedProblem: String is broken into 2 parts within a delimeter.
Goal: To keep each String/Segment intact regardless of Alpha/Numeric.
I have a .csv file with 26 segments (commas). This file contains customer data: PO#, Order#, Carton ID, Address 1, Address 2, Address 3, etc.
I've written code to capture all 26 segments as: Input #1, Seg1, Seg2, ... ,Seg26. The variables work fine until it encounter a string with Numeric first then Alpha within the same segment.
For this example we have a string such as (...,187 Main Street, PO Box 369,...)
Seg4 = Address
Seg5 = PO Box
The Segment Variables in Input #1, get shifted when it encounters the numeric portion of the address...so the result becomes:
Segment4 = 187
Segment5 = Main Street
Segment 6 = PO Box 369.
So on my next loop when ReadLine is executed...all the variables are shifted and I can't focus on the specific segment that I need to do something to it.
It delimits when it encounters Numeric then Alpha within the string, but accepts the entire string into the variable when its Alpha then Numeric within a delimeter.
How I can keep the entire string in tact within each delimeter?
I want to strip only the leading set of numbers from a string. Trailing numbers should stay.
Logic rule would be:
1) Find first Alpha character
2) Remove all numbers prior to this position
Code:
Original string Desired string

050114OP2OP2
0514OPOP
050214BKCKSBKCKS
05214CKCK
0502CKSCKS

How would I be able to assign a number portion of a variable string to another string variable. For example I have the following string:
AOSXLS_356-NewInfo
I just want the 356 assigned to a string variable.
only the first 7 characters won't change. The number part could be 2 or 4 digits, and the NewInfo portion could be anything.
Looking to extract a numeric value with two letters attached to it from text strings. The text strings vary. Below are the examples I'm looking to extract .51OZ from the first cell, 12CT from the second, and 30CT from the third.

I have another problem with this damn address file. Column H and I have data in them that is often mixed. As shown below, I have used A and B below, but its normaly in Column H and I. I would be greatul if some could write a macro to split the data into the two columns.
Rows 2-8 is what Im presented with. I would like them to look like 11-17
Note that the number in row 8 does not match, so is left for manual intervention....
