Remove Blank And Summarize Text In Cells
Oct 3, 2012
I have a column of cells, some contain text and some do not. The cells which contain txt or are left blank could change on a daily basis.
I'd like Excel to look at the column of cells which contain the data and populate the information into a list on another worksheet without the blank cells, can I do this?
How it looks now: Sheet 1, cells A1:A6

What would be sweet: Summary data on Sheet 2, cells A1:A3

s/s is 325501 rows deep. Down one column are values but these are seperated by blank cells.
I need to omit the blank cells so that all the values appear together, but keep them in the same formation (not sorted).

I'm working with fragmented text inserts within my worksheet.
How can I make this:
,..A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P...
1,.............. Cell filled with text
2,.................................................Cell filled with text
3,.................................Cell filled with text
4,.........Cell filled with text
5,.................................................Cell filled with text
6,.......................Cell filled with text
7,.......................Cell filled with text
8,.......................Cell filled with text
9,...........................................Cell filled with text
look like this:
,..A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P...
1,Cell filled with text
2,Cell filled with text
3,Cell filled with text
4,Cell filled with text
5,Cell filled with text
6,Cell filled with text
7,Cell filled with text
8,Cell filled with text
9,Cell filled with text
Basically, I'm trying to create a macro that will remove the blank indented cells of each row, and return the cell (with text) to column A.

I have spreadsheet that displays many blank cells. I would like all the information from this sheet (example below) displaying on another spreadsheet but without the blank cells.
On the example below I've shown how I want my sheet3 to look. (Cells B19:I22)
The sheet where I want to remove the blanks is Sheet2 B2:AE367
Is this possible using array formulas or macro?

In my current sheet, I have a button which pastes the contents of the user's clipboard into cell A20. The data that is being pasted is a simple, single-column range of data that may or my not contain blank cells. When this button is clicked, the user's clipboard should already have data.
Some of these pasted ranges may go from A20:A40, A20:A60, or even A20:A73. The point is, the length of the pasted information is variable.
I am looking for VBA code which can look at the recently pasted range in A20:AX, find blank cells, and remove them. Here is my current code (very simple), which is only the paste function:
VB:
Sub admin_btnPASTE()
' paste_align Macro
' pastes data
On Error Goto Whoa
[Code]....

I have a column of contacts. Each contact has data spread out over many rows, most of which are blank. I would like all of the data spread out through the rows to be in one cell, delineated by commas (so I can import into another program).
Concatenating the cells works except that I end up with 20 commas for two strings of info.
Just so you understand I may have this:
Mary red blue yellow purple
Rob blue purple
Trey yellow
and I want it to look like this
Mary red, blue, yellow, purple
Rob blue, purple
Trey yellow
How should I go about this?

I have a list that I need to move to another column without spaces. I have it moving without spaces but it is only one item over and over again. I am using Excel 2010 and that may be my issue. I have attached the exact worksheet and formula.

I have a column in which the cells contain values such as "012321 BGH YRK". Is there any way you know of that I can remove just the text from every cell and keep the numeric values? A mass operation because there are literally hundreds of these cells. I am using Excel 2001.

I'm working with a large range of data in single columns and I want to remove all text characters (a-z) from the workbook. There are some cells which have text characters with numerical characters so I'm struggling to find a way to isolate them.

I am exporting lots of data from a website and for some reason to do with html i am getting   in a few cells in my description column (column C), i think that means "& " in html. this occurs in some cells but not others when i paste it into Excel. I would like to remove these characters.
I know I can do it with crtl H and the replace field blank but I would like a formula so in the future the user will simply have to paste information and then get converted information out (as they will struggle to use excel).

I need to remove the last bit of text from the contents of multiple cells in a column. In my attached example, I want to remove the last line break and the text "• List Price £", by processing all the cells in the column at the same time.
I can add text OK in Format: Cells: Number: Custom using @"text" but haven't been able to figure out how to remove text yet!

I require a formula to remove all text and spaces from a cell, reporting back only the single digit number that is contained within.
A1 - Data to be manipulated (e.g. options look like "2UE", "UE2", "4P", "5 TW")
A2 - Result with all text and spaces removed (e.g. "2", "2", "4", "5")

I have copied information from an outside source to Excel. Unfortunately, the information includes numbers preceding the text which I need to delete for all records. Is there an easier way of deleting this information without going to each individual cell to delete the numbers

I have a simple sentence in cells C3, D3 and E3. The sentence in C3 is:
Find Airfare to Chicago, Airline Tickets to Chicago, and More | XXXXXXXXX®
D3 contains: XXXXXXXXX highlights outstanding airfares to Chicago from quality airlines and agencies. E3 contains my list of keywords: Chicago Flights, Cheap Flights to Chicago, Cheap Chicago airline tickets, chicago flight, chicago airfare, chicago airline ticket, chicago airline tickets
The XXXXXXXXX in the C&D cells is the client name which I had to blank out in order to post here. I wasn't sure if you guys would need to know exactly how many characters there are in each cell. In column B3 is the name of the city, in this case the city is Chicago. I have 8000 destinations so I need a formula that will take the city (or any information) in the B column and replace that in the C, D and E columns in the appropriate place. I've attached a small, representative file to demonstrate.

I have a large worksheet and I managed to duplicate data in a row of cells.
MOT 1/F1,
B/P 1f2,
B/P 1f2
In the string above I need to delete all text from the first comma to the end of the string so the above would look like:
MOT 1/F1
This is an example in one cell of many. The text prior to the first comma may or may not repeat and it is the only portion of the text I wish to keep. The first comma is not always in the same place (character count position).

I want B1 to copy from A1, but if A1 contains a certain text string, then remove that text string and keep everything else. For example, I want B1 to remove "ru" "la" "fm" and "mu" so if A1 is 5464ru-xl then B1 will return 5464-xl or if A1 is 36944la-s then B1 returns 36994-s

I want to change the character ~ with . in order to be able to make them numeric values to be feeded to other functions. But REPLACE seems not doing the job so I've been checking out other options such as seperating after and before the character ~. Details are below. I've been trying to use this formula to extract values from a delimited database which I open with excel. The formula that has brought me close is =IF(ISNUMBER(E51)=FALSE,LEFT(E51,LEN(E51)- FIND("~",E51)),E51)
14010~000
3210~0000
When I import the database, the figures above have originals as 14010.00000 & 3210.00000 but transfer to excel as above. As far as I have observed 9 character spaces are displayed & the DOT transfers to ~ for some reason. I need the LEFT section of the ~

I am trying to merge text, in four adjacent cells in the same row (say cells A1,A2,A3 and A4), into a single cell (say cell A5).
I would like a comma or full stop and then a space between each item merged (cell A5).
The text to be merged may appear in any one of the four cells (cells A1 to A4). Those cells without text are blank.
Only where all 4 cells are blank, will I need cell 'A5' to indicate this.
The formula needs to be relative as I will need to copy the formula down the spreadsheet so that it applies to additional rows.

I am a SAS programmer and often use SAS Proc Export to dump data to Excel. Sometimes the data is an Excel formula, e.g.
=hyperlink("#Sheet1!r1c1","click here")
Because the data is text, what get's put in the cell is '=HYPERLINK("#Sheet1!r1c1","click here") (note leading single quote).
I cannot use the replace function to edit them out, so must hand edit each one out -tedious at best.

Initially I'm simply copying a data table from a web page using "Ctrl + A" then "Ctrl + C", and then pasting the data straight onto a new worksheet so I can work with it. (After temporarily re-naming the old sheet)
But I keep finding what looks like double-spaces after some of the important text within the Range of cells I'm working with. I need to be able to select & conditional format the values of the text in some columns of the sheet, so need to loose these trailing spaces.
Unfortunately, it's not consistence as to how many spaces trail the text I need. Sometimes it's only one space, sometimes its two spaces ?
So far, I've had mixed success with a recorded "Replace" code but none of the other codes I have found on forum pages either don't work all or seem to give any consistent results. E;g; TRIM, CLEAN
I suspect my problem is, I do not know how to call the code properly, or trying to work with too large a range ?
The start of my code reads:
Code:
Sheets("Data").Select
Sheets("Data").Name = "Old Data"
Sheets.Add After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
Sheets(Sheets.Count).Select
ActiveSheet.Name = "Data"
[Code]...
' At the moment I'm using to select the pasted range I want to work on: Range(Range("C46"), Range("C46").SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select
This is where I need a code to work on the new Data sheet and remove all the trailing characters.
MsgBox "All data cleaned successfully !", vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "All Done"

As simple as this sounds, I can't seem to make this work. I am looking for code for the following:
I would like to enter the word "Empty" into a cell if the cell is blank. The
range can be variable. The only columns that contain an empty cell are
columns B or C which can have any number of rows.

I have a built a catalogue of records for various of my companies assets. Each asset has its own sheet in a work book and I have used a vb macro to include an automatic Index sheet at the front of the book. This takes the names of the various tabs, in the order I have them in the workbook and creates a simple listing in column A as an Index List
What I want to do is to build a summary table to the right of the Index List, pulling in a few of the key data points about the assets into a single table.
To do that I need to be able to extract the text string from the Index List and use it to form part of a cell reference pointing to a specific cell in the relevant individual Asset sheets.

My problem is that long text for the cell overlaps any blank cells to the right. I have more then 20.000 rows, so I would not like to put a space character in all the blank cells. Is there a way of formatting which will stop this? I don't want these texts to overlap the blank cells!

I'm using the the Texttocolumns method in a Macro, and when it runs across a cell without any data I get "Run time error '1004' No data was selected to parse". How would I get passed this? I would like it to just remain a blank range without the error. Here's the code I'm using:
Range("F38").Select
Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("F38"), DataType:=xlFixedWidth, _
FieldInfo:= Array(Array(0, 1), Array(5, 1), Array(13, 1), Array(21, 1), Array(25, 1)), _
TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
