Remove And Replace Data
Jan 26, 2009
I need to remove any attribute that doesn't have a spec in it and keep the attribute that does have a spec in it.
Width=5/8 in|Thickness=0.0150 in|Length=100 ft|Tension Cap.=750 lb [Max]|Inside Diam=|Material=Austenitic Stainless
Steel|Coating=|Color=|Locking Type=Valuclips?|Used With=|Type=|Quantity=|Wt.=3.60 lb
I need to remove for example Inside Diam=| since it doesn't have a spec about the product
Width=5/8 in| will remain since it does have a spec about the product
so after this is done it should look like this
Width=5/8 in|Thickness=0.0150 in|Length=100 ft|Tension Cap.=750 lb [Max]|Material=Austenitic Stainless Steel|Locking Type=Valuclips
|Wt.=3.60 lb

I have:
www.abc.com/
www.abc.com/def
what I want is to basically remove the "/" after the .com but keep it on the second one.
So final result should be
www.abc.com
www.abc.com/def
when I do find and replace of "/" with a blank it makes it www.abce.comdef, which is not what I want.

I have very large text data which contains accented characters (E.g., "ÑÒÓÔÕÖÙÚÛÜÝàáâãäåçèéêëìíîïðñòóôõöùúûüýÿˆµ" etc.) within words.
Since I have several data sheets, some of which having 500000+ rows, Find and Replace and similar options are not viable.
I wish to replace each of these characters with regular English characters in all sheets. If that is difficult, these must at least be removed from the whole text. note that I need to preserve regular characters that are commonly used, particularly the hyphen (-) and underscore (_).

I have a list of stock codes which are 6 digits long and there are over 550 of them.
We have shortened our codes to a five digit number, removing the first digit.
Is there a way to delete the first digit of the numeric and replace it with the remainder in all of the 550+ cells?

I need to remove the first character in each row of a column, but only its first occurrence in each row. For instance:
Say, column 2 has following data (lots of rows, by the way):
First Text" - "blabla"
=SomeText2 = "blabla"
SomeText3 = "blabla"
=SomeText4 = "blabla"
-SomeText5 --- "blabla"
........
....
I would like to use the VBA code to remove ONLY the FIRST occurrence of the FIRST character specified (either "=" or "-") in each row in that column, so that I get:
First Text" - "blabla"
SomeText2 = "blabla"
SomeText3 = "blabla"
SomeText4 = "blabla"
SomeText5 --- "blabla"
......
...and so on...
I tried to use this:
Code:
Columns(2).Cells.Replace What:="-", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
Columns(2).Cells.Replace What:="=", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
but it replaces ALL occurrences of "=" and "-" and that is not what I need.
I also tried this code:
Code:
With Range("B:B")
.Value = Replace(.Value, "=", "", 1, 1)
End With
But It doesn't work either.

Code:
Columns("D:D").Select
Selection.Replace What:="+", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _

Id like to apply a formula, any formula to an entire column if it contains data, and incorporate the original data in the calculation and then replace the original data with the result. I don't want to have to create new columns.
I'm using this to fix up database results; a common problem is dates in dot format e.g. 14.11.2008
All I have so far is an autofill formula that overwrites everything. Can someone help me with the rest? I'm using the SUBSTITUTE function to replace the dots '.' with slashes '/'
Sub Create_formula_result()
Dim Limit As Long
Dim r As range
Set r = range("A1")
r.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=IF(RC[0]"""",(SUBSTITUTE(RC[0],""."",""/"")+0) ,"""")"
Limit = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
r.AutoFill Destination:=range(r, Cells(Limit, r.Column))
End Sub

This problem has come up fairly frequently lately, and I'm not sure how to fix it, or if this is by design...but in Excel 2003 I can't seem to do a "Find and Replace" based on the value of a cell. I can do a find, based on cell value, but the moment I change to the replace tab, the "values" and "comments" are missing from the "look in" dropdown.
I've only noticed this when I'm trying to replace on a filtered list, so I'm not sure if that is part of the issue.
Perhaps an alternative way of arriving at the same goal. Basically I have a worksheet with a number of filtered columns. They are filtered just right, using custom filtering, and so I do not want to undo the filters. In some columns I have formulas that are returning #VALUE! errors. I'd like to replace all of these cells with NA.

I recently became owner of a spreadsheet with some issues, and I am trying to make it useful. Each row has a URL of a blog post, and I want to extract the date from it (which is present in each URL) while getting rid of the rest of the URL. I was able to get rid of everything up to the year (which comes first), but then the URL continues, for example, 2013/05/16/the-rest-of-the-url/ and I would like to just have 2013/05/16 remain.
I am trying to use find and replace with the find box reading 2013/??/??/*/ and replacing it with 2013/??/?? which effectively erases everything else in the url, but leaves ?? instead of the numbers. Is there any way to have it so that it keeps whatever was in the original box?

[Code] .....
Trying to repeat a 550 or so character statement with a find/replace however I am getting type mismatch errors. When I use a smaller message in the "replace" it works.
I need it to post a message exactly as long as what I have in there. How do I get it to work?

Need assistance with the code for catching errors when using the find / replace function in excel? In particular, I am trying to write code to break to an error message when the value or string searched for isn't found in the find / replace. At the minute I have just copied the standard code using a macro and all this does is return a message box saying X entries replaced.

I have values in row A and I have values in row C. I want to create a loop to look up xxx and replace it with the values consecutively in row C. Look at example for a better Idea. I found a way to find and replace, but I not sure how to use it with qoutes. I was thinking maybe I dont even need row A and just supply a list and excel could have the chunk of data in the code itself.

I am trying to create a macro where it finds a a certain word in a column for example C. What i want it to do is find anything that says FWD_EUR and then replace that cell (e.g C2) with CASH_EUR_FWD and after it has done that it replaces the adjacent cell (e.g. D2) with EUR_FWD. I then want this to do the same with FWD_USD to CASH_USD_FWD and adjacent cell to USD_FWD.

How to find and replace a range of values. I've looked online, and searched the forum with no success.
I have a list of cells in a column labled "Check #1", "Check #2", "Check #3" ect. I'm trying to build a Macro that would replace any value from "Check #1" to "Check #50,000" with "Outgoing Check". I know this can be done manually with relative ease, but it will need to be done very very very often, so I'd like to automatic it as much as possible.
How to put the steps into a Macro or Formula that could be re-produced with ease.

Attaching the excel file.
find the details below:
1. User will input the file in the "INPUT SHEET", typing the Text in Root, Uric, Lot size, Lot Unit, Display name and Series name.
2. User will select the from the drop down for Category and Type.
3. After Inputting the data according to the category and type selected. it should select the data, and Replace the Root with the inputed data to "IDX MAIN SERIES" the 2nd sheet "DATA" Sheet. and it should save it in CSV format
4. Same thing goes with the "IDX CHAIN SERIES" in the second sheet. and it should also save it in CSV. format
5. so for each and every root there would be 2 CSV file one for Main Series and one for chain.
6. The Root type can be repeatable, so if there are multiple root the all Roots should be in main series csv file and all the chain should be in Chain series csv file.
7. Same thing for the modifer sheet it will replace the data highlighted in Yellow (Data updated in "INPUT SHEET" and should save in ".TXT" format

I was wondering if it is possible to perform a find and replace which would replace data from another column. We have a lot of data fields of our inventory that we exported which we are trying to condense for another program.
Example: I have a description column (AV) that has [[Manufacturer]] within the description. We want to find [[Manufacturer]] and replace with our data column (DD).
This is the data that has our manufacturers name in it. We have several find and replaces to do within the description column besides the above field.

I have a spreadsheet, where I am measuring dimensions for a cpk test. My question is, can I use vba to format the calculated cpk cell so that if it falls below a certain value it replaces that value with whatever I have specified in vba? Was wondering is this is possible.

As you should be able to see in the attachment I have 3 columns
The first column is the data I wont to search and replace.
What I want it to do is for every value in A, loop through B and if it finds the Value in A matches that of B then replace the value in A with the value that is in C.
So basically B is like a reference column.
I hope this makes sense. My algorythm is something like this I guess.

If I run this vba it removes the external data connection to the pivot table:
ActiveWorkbook.Connections("EXAMPLE").Delete
When I attempt to drill down into the pivot table it states the data connection was removed.
Is there a way to remove the data connection but preserve the data in the pivot cache?
It's probably possible to store the data somewhere else in the document and link the pivot table up to it but that seems cumbersome.

Need to sort my data in column A which contains a long list of numerical data. To do this manually using copy and paste would be easy, but not viable because of the large amount of data.
The attached PDF file illustrates the data. I wish to replace each date of dirth entry in column A (one D.O.B. in each cell / row, expressed as YYYYMMDD) with the client identifier number (format 937XXXX) a couple of cells above. And at the same time delete the row containing the client reference (or its contents). The data in column A should retain the same relationship to the data in the other columns (B,C). it may require a short piece of VBA code.

I am looking to Find and Replace (via ctr-F) but I need to replace it only within a range of selected cells. Each time I try to do this it replaces everything even though I have tried selecting each cell and replacing only that. Is there a way to select a certain amount of cells and replace?

I am looking to make an excel script that can find and replace data.
Situation:
A--------B-----------C
Cat------Dog------Banana
Dog------Fish------Apple
Fish------Cat-------Orange
So the macro would look at the data in a cell in column B, then look at the adjacent cell in column C, and replace all instances of that data in column A with what if found in C. So the results would be:
A------------B-----------C
Orange------Dog------Banana
Banana------Fish------Apple
Apple--------Cat-------Orange
But that's not all, I would like it to not change cells in A that already have been changed once! (I'm trying this with changing the background colour)
I am at a complete loss and need to find and replace over 3000 items.
