Removing Spaces (?) From A Cell

Mar 16, 2009

I need to do a lookup on these cells but for some reason they all appear to have some kind of space characters in each cell which you can see if you double click on them. I have tried trims, text to columns, find replaces and none of these seem to work

I have a huge list of these numbers / codes and they all have the weird space kind of characters at the end

Can anyone give me a solution on how to remove them so my lookup will work?

Removing Spaces After Semicolons

Aug 20, 2009

I have cells in a sheet containing varying numbers of items separated by semicolons. I want to convert these to columns using text to columns. The trouble is there are spaces after each semicolon, and I don't know how to get rid of them. I believe this may be compounded by the fact that the cells containing varying numbers of items. When I convert to columns I don't want each cell in the new columns to start with spaces. I'm attaching an example of what I mean (sanitized with fast food joint names).

Removing Spaces In A Cell

Dec 12, 2008

I have a column with 11 digit numbers formatted as text (Column C) and it seems like there's three spaces after the number (In Sheet A). I am trying to do a vlookup comparing Sheet A to Sheet B. It's not working and not sure if it's the extra spacing in the cell of Sheet A that's causing the Vlookup not to work.

I would like to compare both lists to see what UPC's are on both sheets. Any ideas how I can do this?

In Sheet A, Column C contains UPC (11 digits) 07845968952

In Sheet B, Column E contains UPC (11 digits)

Removing Spaces And Seperating Data

Removing Blank Spaces From The Beginning Of Cells

Jun 16, 2009

I'm compiling several old worksheets into a single database for a research study. The worksheets contain patient data. Some of the worksheets have the patient's last name, first name, and middle initial entered all in one cell like this: Smith,John R. Compounding the problem is the fact that sometimes the name is entered with a space between the comma and the first name, sometimes not.

I have formulas to break the name out into three separate columns "lName, "fName", "midInit". However, if the name in the original cell has a space between the coma and the first name, then the “fname” column will contain a blank space in front of the name. This is problem because patients names can appear in the database more than once. Some patients are in the database several times.

If patient “John R. Smith”, for example, is entered in the database as”

“Smith” “John” “R “

and also as

“Smith” “<space>John” “R”


then the database won’t recognize them as the same name when I search for John Smith’s data. Right?

If so, then I need a way to eliminate the empty spaces in front of the first names. Like I said, some have empty spaces and some don’t. I could do this by hand, but there are over 1000 entries in these worksheets.

Removing Trailing Spaces From Cells In Entire Spreadsheets?

Dec 11, 2013

I have an Excel file with several worksheets and each of those worksheets has over 600 rows (a list of employees) and above or under 30 columns. Most of cells have trailing spaces in them and they vary in length. For example:

B5: "Jacobson "
C5: "jacobson@jacobson.org "
(Seems like it's not allowing me to post long gaps between the last letters and the "

I'm aware of the TRIM function and know that I could at least get a column or a few copied with the spaces removed. However, it would just take so much time. What would be the most efficient way of getting rid of all the trailing spaces in all the cells in all the columns in all the worksheets?

Cutting Out Empty Spaces Of Data?

Feb 17, 2014

I've inherited this monster of a spreadsheet that is consistently being added to and updated. Everyweek a new column is added and data entered. When one row is done, it gets cut and pasted to the Inactive sheet; however, the problem I am encountering if that the rows all have different amounts of columns, depending on when they were added and how long the items were on the sheet.

For example:

A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
I

[code]....

So when I go to move row 1, when it becomes inactive, to the Inactive sheet, I have 8 columns of data that I need to cut and paste to make it line up with that sheet, which goes monthly. Is there any way to automatically cut out the empty columns of data for each row so that it can be condensed, rather then going through each one?

Clear Spaces From Otherwise Empty Cells

Sep 23, 2008

I have a data table which has a mixture of text, blank cells, and cells with spaces in. I have created a pivot table from the data table. The pivot table is counting the cells with spaces in instead of reading them as blank. I have been able to fix this by putting on a filter in the data table, highlighing all the blank cells only and then clearing them column by column.

The problem is the data table is 50 columns long, so it is quite time consuming to do this manually. The data table gets updated regularly so this is an ongoing problem. Does anyone know of a faster solution to fix this problem? I have attached a snapshot of the problem as an example

Removing First Two Empty Rows

Aug 31, 2007

After importing a text file I use a macro to format it, but one part I can't figure out is how to delete the first two empty rows. I need to delete them because the cells in each of these rows are merged together which complicates data manipulation. As you would expect, the row number will be different with each import. Can anyone help with code that would accomplish this?

Removing Empty Rows From Set Of Data?

Jan 24, 2013

removing empty rows from my set of data.

I have a big set of data that I'm copying and pasting into excel. When I paste it there are 2 empty rows between each line of data. I want to remove these empty rows, without affecting the data. I tried 'Go to special...' and deleting all empty cells and stuff but I couldn't get it to work. The problem is that there are blank cells in some of the rows that I want to keep. When I try to remove the blank rows, I also end up removing rows of data that I want to keep.

I've made an example for you to try and explain it better - attached.

remove all of the rows that are completely empty, but leave any row that has any data in it (at any point), that would be awesome!

I have come up with this to Trim all of the data from rows 2:30 removing any trailing spaces after the last word in each cell. The macro takes a couple of minutes to run have I got something wrong that is making it run slowly or does the Trim process just take longer?

Sub TRIM_RANGE()
Dim myRange As Range
Dim myRow As Range
Sheets("CAMPAIGNS_2007").Select
Set myRange = Range("2:30")
If myRange Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
myRange.Replace What:=Chr(160), Replacement:=Chr(32), _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
For Each myRow In myRange.Columns
If Application. CountA(myRow) > 0 Then
myRow.TextToColumns Destination:=myRow(1), _
DataType:=xlFixedWidth, FieldInfo:=Array(0, 1)
End If
Next myRow

Linking To Column In Another Excel File And Removing Empty Cells?

Jul 15, 2013

Let's say I have 2 files: Source file and working file. In source file there are some text names in a column that are updated once in a while.

1. I need to create a column in "working file" such that is taking values from column in "source file" even when "source file" is closed.

2. It should take only non empty values, because I need to create a cell with validation list that consists of text names from the column.

Solving attempt: By searching some solutions in forum I found that the first part I can do in the following way: copy column from "source file", select in "working file" a "paste special" option and choose "paste link". It works, but the problem is that it imports all the column: if in "source file" the column consists of words "a" (cell A1), "b" (cell A2) and all other cells in A column are empty - in "working file", after linking, it appears as "a" (cell A1), "b" (cell A2) and all other cells in A column are "0" (zeros) till cell A65536. And I need that in "working file" column after linking will appear as "a" (cell A1), "b" (cell A2) and all other cells will be empty, so by setting one of cells in B column to be a list (by "Data" - "Data validation" - "List" ) - it will consist only from "a" and "b", and not from "a", "b", "0", "0", "0", .... (65534 zeros).

Delete Empty Rows And Empty Columns From Word Table

Mar 25, 2014

I am trying to populate the 2 tables from excel to word. I will be getting the excel file with tables in various sheets. One sheet consist of 2 tables that will be inserted to one word document. So if there are 2 sheets then I will have the tables inserted in the 2 word document. In the excel sheet I have attached, there are 2 sheets with tables in each of them. I have written the code to copy and paste the table to word doc from (general) range A1:G4 (Table 1) and A9:H18 (Table 2) that has empty rows and columns selected. But there are empty rows and columns inserted since the table range is not same sheetwise. I would like get the empty rows and columns deleted in the word table.

Find the attached sample excel sheet and the word documents.
