I have been sent a spreadsheet that was populated from another system. I need to run some VLOOKUPS but the cell that I need to compare has a ' in front of the text/number eg 'VB123456. I have found a thread on how to remove it for a number but it does not work with letters.

What is the best way to concatenate with a semi-colon across multiple cells in excel. The one kicker is I only want to concatenate where the cell is populated.
If I write a simple Concatenate or combined columns, if a cell is blank I get the multiple.
I found the following formula on another site that deletes all the text before the last colon (it deletes the colon as well)
=TRIM(RIGHT(M2,LEN(M2)-SEARCH("@#",SUBSTITUTE(M2,":","@#",LEN(M2)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(M2,":",""))))))
Is it possible to modify it so that it only triggers if there is nothing after the last colon?
As you can see in the example below I have some notes entered by users and I would like to delete the ones where they didn't actually enter a note after the last colon:
11/05/2012 13:19:53 NEW MIKE : cld poe male sd cu not in till 3pm
10/18/2012 08:03:55 NEW HOSSEN : called no answer

11/14/2012 13:42:07 ACT MIKE : cld poe spk to cust sd cm back at 330
I would like to be left with just this instead:
11/05/2012 13:19:53 NEW MIKE : cld poe male sd cu not in till 3pm
10/18/2012 08:03:55 NEW HOSSEN : called no answer

Is there a way to format cells so 24 hour time may be input without the colon, as an example 1425 instead or 14:25? We can do it in Access. One would think it possible in Excel, yet I have not discover how if indeed its possible.
View 9 Replies View RelatedCreating a project tracking sheet that is as automted as possible so that people dont have to populate lots. I have managed to get it to create a new sheet and populate according to a filled out combobox. The user then populates a 'milestone' section. When a button is clicked these are transferred to a GANTT chart type sheet and pasted. Before they are pasted the macro checks if the project title exists, if it does not it first pastes the title LEFT INDENTED. Then follows by pasting the milestones CENTRED. If the title exists, it inserts the milestones under the project title by copying and pasting all milestones. Hence, if milestones are regularly added, it will begin to add duplicates of the same milestone. I need to remove these. I would usually be able to do this however there is often the same milestone in numerous projects which I CANNOT remove as it would loose data. I would like a code that says between the cell I was searching for (Rng) and the next cell which is also left indented to remove duplicates. Basically I can't use x1enddown because it needs to stop at the next cell which has the same formatting... i.e. only duplicates to be removed out of the cells which are centred. I would then like it to repear this action for the whole document and move the next left indented cell and do the same.
It feels like a kind of backward conditional formatting is what I am looking for
Here is my code as it stands
Dim FindString As String
Dim Rng As Range
FindString = Range("D2").Value
If Trim(FindString) <> "" Then

I am a basic excel user and what I want is to be able to add in a time and have the colon automatically entered for me. For example, I want to add 130 and have it come out to 1:30, or 1215 and have it come out to 12:15. Seems easy to me but I cannot figure it out.
Can someone please build me a quick VB code?
Below are states which are located in column "I". I need a VB code that will cut any entire row that has any of the following states below into a new collective workbook - if any of the states don't exsist then to just ignore and move on. They all have to be in the same workbook in the end.
If NONE of these states exsist, please just insert a msgbox ("No states to move")
(I basically need to divide West coast and East coast by removing all WC states and put them in their own workbook)

I need to find a way to enter times into excel without having to use a colon.
The data I need in the cell is the hour, the minute, and either AM or PM. No seconds, which I believe is why Chip Pearson’s time VBA procedure doesn’t work for me, and I don’t know enough about VBA to change it for my needs.
So for example, I need to enter in times like 10:09 PM or 12:40 AM or 2:33 AM.
All my times will be entered into Column D.
I have done a ton of searching and tried several different solutions, but none of them allow me to put in AM or PM. If I just put 1009 into a cell with Chip Pearson’s macro, it will display as 10:09 AM, which is great if I need it to be AM. But if I need it to be PM, and I enter in “1009 p”, it will display as “1009 p”, neglecting the colon and not displaying the time correctly.
Does anyone have a solution where I can type in a 3 or 4 digit number (233 or 1240) and either “a” or “p” after it, and have it display as 2:33 PM or 12:40 AM?
I use Excel 2007, if it matters.
I downloaded some data from an extarnal source to excel... the texts I get appear as 'TEXT' (mind the colons at start and end of TEXT).
However, in some of the cells the Start Colon is visible and in some cells it isn't (although it's there and can be viewed in the formula bar).
I want the start colon to be visible.
Replaced the period with a colon, 8.23 resulted in 8:23. I have since deleted the Add In. Now every time I enter a "." it is replaced by a ":". This happens even when I disable macros on the spreadsheet. I cannot see any VBA code.

I need to remove any rows containing "EEE" in the size column.
I also need to remove any discontinued ("D" in the "Type" column)styles that are currently not in inventory. For example 05-5490 does not have any available in either width "D" or "EW" and should be removed; however, 28-112 does have stock and should remain in the spreadsheet. Anything with an "F" in the "Type" column should be left alone.
I have been using the following formula's to trim some information that's separated by a colon, such as Pioneer Clinic:Dave McAfee...so that I have a column with Pioneer Clinic and a column with Dave McAfee:
=LEFT(G5,FIND(":",G5)-1)
=TRIM(RIGHT(G5,LEN(G5)-FIND(":",G5)))
However, now some of my data is separated by two colons! AVM:Pioneer Clinic:Dave McAfee. the formula for separating this so I still have two columns of Pioneer Clinic and Dave McAfee?

Any formula for removing text within multiple sets of parentheses?
I would like to take something like this: Compared with placebo, dimethyl fumarate was shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with MS in the phase 3 DEFINE (Gold R et al. N Engl J Med. 2012; 367:1098-1107) and CONFIRM (Fox R et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;367:1087-1097) trials. Common adverse effects associated with dimethyl fumarate that were observed in these trials included flushing and GI events, as well as decreased lymphocyte counts and elevated liver aminotransferase levels.
and have it read: Compared with placebo, dimethyl fumarate was shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with MS in the phase 3 DEFINE and CONFIRM trials. Common adverse effects associated with dimethyl fumarate that were observed in these trials included flushing and GI events, as well as decreased lymphocyte counts and elevated liver aminotransferase levels.
I wish to automate this task so formulas (if possible) are preferred. Totally cool with a multi-formula, many-columned solution - as long as this task is automated.
NB: Each cell will contain different text, so the sets of parentheses will appear in different places. The number of parenthetical sets may also vary from 1-5.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHow to remove all the " symbol out of a string of data?
The " symbol appears at different places and i need to remove them all completely. the Find & Replace tool doesn't work because when you have say 3/4" and want it to just read 3/4 it automatically converts it to 03-Apr. even when you have changed the cell formatting to text.
I have a spreadsheet which reads:
A1 E012345678
A2 126789433
A3 ABCDEFGH
A4 CDEEGFFH
A5 E0456783
A6 98765432
etc.
I need only the the data in Cells A1 A5 etc. which means the 3 cells below (A2, A3, A4 ) should be deleted. A5 I need the data, and then A6, A7, A8 I do not need ... A9 need and so on.
the data should be in in one below the next with no spaces in between.
Data is only in column A.
I have imported data and it shows "Check 1234". How can I use a formula to remove "check" from this cell?
