Custom Number Format - Automatically Enter Dashes At Appropriate Spot
May 7, 2014I am needing a custom format for the following. I need a cell entry to be 1 letter, three numbers, a dash, 5 numbers, a dash, two numbers, a dash, and then two number. Example: A109-54785-13-00. The first letter will almost always be an "A."
To further complicate the matter, the entry is copied from an email and pasted without the dashes. In the above example, the number in the email would read, "A109547851300." I copy it from the email and paste it in the proper cell in the worksheet. I would like the custom format to automatically enter the dashes at the appropriate spot.
If it was all numbers, this would be easy. I created a custom format for the numbers, but when the A is included, Excel no longer treats it as a number and the custom format did not work.
Is this possible in Excel (without VBA).
I could use the custom number format I created and then later go back and add the "A" at the beginning, but that is as much work as manually adding the dashes.
Remove All The Dashes
Jun 14, 2006Have a column containing data which may have 1-3 dashes locates within
each cell value.
Such as:
125-457A
158-857-1116
124184A-1
125-8745-22D9
458-2145-002-7
Would like to remove all the dashes "unless" the last dash to the right
is followed by a just a single digit. The results would be as follows:
125457A
1588571116
124184A-1
125874522D9
4582145002-7
On the example data, it kept 2 of the dashes in the cell values,
because the were only one digit away from the extreme right, but
removed all others.
How To Remove Specific Dashes Within Cell Leaving Others
Jul 28, 2014I have a series of columns that have dashes in them and want to remove just specific dashes from the cell
Example of original 70489-344-15-001
This is what I want --> 70489-34415001
Got about 1000 of them ...
How Do I Get The Dashes To Not Count As A Digit/number?
Sep 12, 2007I have this script that does what i need it to do but one thing, I need the script to count the numbers as digits only and not the dashes in the format.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("I21:I24")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
If (Len(Target) > 11) Or (Len(Target) < 10) Then
MsgBox "Not a valid number of characters, please try again"
Target.Value = vbNullString...................
Automatically Add Or Remove Date
Dec 29, 2006This code below is pasted from Automatically Add Date, Time or Date & Time and uses the Worksheet Change Event
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A2:A100")) Is Nothing Then
With Target(1, 2)
.Value = Date
.EntireColumn.AutoFit
End With
End If
End Sub
It automatically enters today's date into the corresponding B cell. How do I code it so that the date is automatically removed when & if I delete the corresponding A cell?
Remove Empty Cells Automatically Per Row?
Oct 2, 2013I'm needing to import a .csv into another software and it needs the fields formatted a specific way.
The spreadsheet I've been given has columns for different departments and an X to denote if they fall under it. As an example.
Name
Sales
OHS
HR
Joe Bloggs
X
X
Bob Smith
X
John Doe
X
X
For the import into this software it needs the fields like this, the name in the cell has to be exactly the same as the column header.
Joe Bloggs
Sales
HR
Bob Smith
OHS
John Doe
OHS
HR
Is there an easy formula to scan the row, if an X is found substitute the X for the column header text and if no X in a cell delete it and shift all cells to the left within the row ?
The substitution is quite easy and I've played around with lookup or if statements to quite easily do that but the bit I'm having trouble sorting is removing any unnecessary cells in that row so only cells with data are listed in the row.
Automatically Remove Unwanted Rows
Dec 13, 2007Im not strong in excel, that why Im here. So:
I work every day with big amount of item numbers and lists in excel and I need some macro or code to automatically remove rows, containing unwanted text.
Example:
MEMORY DIMM 512MB PC3200 DDR
MEMORY DIMM 512MB PC6400 DDRII
MEMORY DRIVE FLASH USB2 2GB
MEMORY MINI SD 2GB W/ADAPTER
MEMORY SECURE DIGITAL 2GB
MEMORY DIMM 1GB PC6400 DDRII
MEMORY DRIVE FLASH USB2 1GB
MEMORY DRIVE FLASH USB2 1GB
So I paste the text from my database, and want to automatically delete rows containing DIMM string. How can I do it?
p.s. is there also a way to leave only the rows I want?
Automatically Remove Cell Colors
Oct 30, 2006i am using a set of VB codes that was kindly provided by "dr". Please refer to the link below.
Highlight-Select Start Date To End Date
However, I am facing problems on how to delete or unfill the cells that are "coloured and filled with booking reference name" (i.e. being booked by the user).
In another words, currently, once a booking is made, the blank slots would be coloured to red and would reflect the customer name in those slots (with the use of dr's VB codes).
Comes the next day, if that booking needs to be cancelled, would the user be able to "delete" that booking that was made (i.e. uncolour that slot plus remove the customer name) without having to automatically go unfill the cells and delete the text in the cells?

Want To Add Dashes To Cell Text...
May 11, 2009I have a column of city names, some are one word and others are two or more. I am trying to take the city name and add it to another word, add dashes in between them and make everything lower case. For example:
Column 1, Cell 1 is: San Diego
I'd like it to look like: books-san-diego (books being the keyword I'd like to insert before the city.)
Return Cells That Have Exactly 3 Dashes
May 27, 2009I have a column of data (column A) with cells that have IDs (alpha-numeric) that contain anywhere between 0 to 5 dashes. Since this column will change weekly, I want to dynamically pull only those cells that contain 3 dashes.
Example:
10648145-3026718-t526363536m
09wcg7-s1s89-wtpxm33-uu6jj0-9y8mv-v1
10658575-2349769-
I would only want to have returned 10648145-3026718-t526363536m since it contains 3 dashes. Do you know of a nifty formula for doing this? I think an array would get me the dynamic piece (so they are not spaced out).

Format Cells With Dashes Between Alphanumerics
Nov 15, 2006I'm trying to find a way to have excel 2003 format the data I put in a cell to auto insert dashes every five characters. I'm entering product keys for the software we have on hand, and it would be a little quicker if I could simply have excel auto format the data entered in to include dashes every five characters.
Example:
- I would enter: D5ATT3D28F6F44536489413E2 (This is a fake, non-working product key, I just typed in random numbers a letters.)
-Excel would format it like: D5ATT-3D28F-6F445-36489-413E2
Hyperlink Code For Sheet Names With Spaces Or Dashes
Sep 7, 2007I believe I have 99% of what I need. The code below has one bug. (See just the underlined text for a very quick overview. The rest is detail.)
My goal is to generate a TOC that:
1) has the VBA run from my Personal Workbook.
2) can be run in any worksheet of any open workbook.
3) can be run in a worksheet of any name.
4) will insert itself at the currently active cell.
5) has entries hyperlinking to the referenced worksheets - of any name.
Right now, I'm stuck with the last point. The macro below will generate the TOC at the currently active cell. The TOC will be hyperlinks to the referenced worksheets.
However, if the referenced worksheet contains a space, dash, or other special character then the generated hyperlink is broken. For example, if the referenced worksheet is "sheet1" then the hyperlink generated works just fine. However, if the referenced worksheet is "sheet-1" then the generated hyperlink doesn't work.
Sub IndexList()
Dim objSheet As Object
Dim intRow As Integer
Dim strCol As Integer
Set objSheet = Excel.Sheets
intRow = ActiveCell.Row 'Start writing in active row
strCol = ActiveCell.Column 'Start writing in active column
For Each objSheet In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
Cells(intRow, strCol).Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:= _
objSheet.Name & "!A1", TextToDisplay:=objSheet.Name
intRow = intRow + 1
Next
End Sub
Remove Commas From Number?
Jan 3, 2014For example, i have some data :
123,123567
12,778
9822,1
8267,222223
then, i want to permanently remove the comma, so the result :
123
12
9822
8267
Because if i use format cells -> use 1k separator, the data actually still contain the comma (even if the looks is 123, but in the formula bar, it stated 123,123567).

Autofill; Copy Down It Doesn’t Automatically Update The Cell References Because It Want To Update Them By Column Number Instead Of Row Number
Dec 11, 2008I have a basic formula =C17+'Asset Depreciation 2008 Onwards'!C24, and I want to copy it down just using the drag function. Problem is that the second reference range of cells are in rows and hence when I copy it down it doesn’t automatically update the cell references because it want to update them by column number instead of row number. IE I want it to display =C17+'Asset Depreciation 2008 Onwards'!
D24, instead of C25. Do you know if there is any way of telling Excel that I want it to increase the column number by 1 every time, instead of the row number for this part of the formula?
