Removing Lines That Contain Certain Letter

Jul 25, 2014

I would like to add a piece to a macro that would delete lines that contain, in the column A, the letter A with a hyphen and a random number. Column A contains different information...I just want to delete the ones with "A-" followed by a number. Should I be able to use "A-*" in the formula?

Here is what I'm trying thus far...

Code:
For K = n To 2 Step -1
If Cells(K, 1).Value = "A-*" Then Cells(K, 1).EntireRow.Delete
Next K
Dim L As Integer, p As Double
p = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

Removing Unwanted Duplicate Lines

Sep 16, 2009

Hi, I have a report that has multiple lines for the same job with notes of issues and solutions. Each line has a date assosiated with it.

What I need to do is to delete all of the notes apart from the first one. I have attached a sample of the data and highlighted the rows that need to be kept.

I have left the data in it's raw form as it is not always extracted in date order.

Can anyone help me out with a Macro that will sort the data and remove all rows apart from the earliest note per job number?

Removing Blank Lines From String

Feb 17, 2010

I have a texfile that populates a textbox on a userform. I would like to remove all blank lines in the string including those at the end if they exist, before populating the textbox. I'm reading the entire file at once into the string, not line by line.

Is there any way to edit the string called Text to remove the blank lines before populating the textbox? I'm looking for 2 carriage return characters in a row, and if so then remove one of them, but I don't know how to code that. This is in the userform activate section. If I read the textfile line by line, I don't know how to populate the textbox that way and remove the blank lines.

For Each Unique Value In Col A+B, Removing Lines Based On Column C

Jan 21, 2010

For each unique value of Order Number [col A] + Line Number [col B], I need a program which will locate the first instance of Next Stat [col D] = 530 and the first instance of col D = 540, deleting the other lines. The output will have two lines remaining for each unique col A+B combination, one where col D = 530 and another = 540. The data will always be sorted in date/time order prior to running this program. The actual data set has a varying number of lines, usually 1000+.

Excel 2013 :: Merging Selected Lines In Worksheet To One Line - Removing Dupes?

Aug 12, 2014

I merged about 15 adresslists from media contacts to one excel list. Each list had a name i.e. music, health, theater, etc. and the same logic in colums. I added a few columns and have 1 large list now.

As some journalists write about music & health & theater, architecture, etc. they are listed up to 10 times in the new list now. But the "genres" from the original list i.e. music, health, theater, etc. are in different columns. Some of the lines have empty fields (i.e. no address or mail)

All I want to do is have one line with all the information of all 10 lines in it, merged, dupes removed:

company - firstname - lastname - Adress - Mail, etc. : genre: music - health - theater:
example.xlsx

I atteched an example of the full list and the result i want

Return Column Letter Based On The Letter In A Cell.

Dec 31, 2009

For the below formula is it possible to replace the B's (column location) with a cell Say Z146 which contains the letter B (or a number if thats easier and someone can tell me the numbers for each column).

When the formula is dragged into the next cell (down) it takes its column reference from Z147 and then my life becomes so much easier.

=IF(INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0))"",INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0)),"")

I like the proper formula and find it handy, however do you know if there is a formula that would only keep the first letter in the cell at caps and reduce the rest to lower case, ie

A1 = MY DOG IS WHITE
proper(A1) = My Dog Is White
what I want is only first letter caps = My dog is white. I'va had a decent look around but can't find anything that would do this?

Highest Letter In A Row

Jan 7, 2010

I'm trying to list the latest revision of a drawing in an issue sheet spreadsheet. What I need is to be able to enter a formula that will find the highest alphanumerical value in the columns beyond. Alphabetic characters take precedence over numerical - i.e., drawing issue numbers usually follow a 00, 01, 02, 03, then switch to A, B, C, D,... order.

To try and illustrate what I mean a little better, I have the following table, with dates in DD/MM format. Sorry it's not laid out too well, my HTML isn't great:

Drawing title latest revision 01/01 02/01 03/01 04/01 05/01 06/01
example010001AB
example02000102
example0300

I want the cells in the "latest revision" column to report the highest value. So, I want it to say this:

Drawing title latest revision 01/01 02/01 03/01 04/01 05/01 06/01
example01B0001AB
example0202000102
example030000

I won't have control over the numbers and letters reached (i.e., the drawing revision could get up to Z or something - or the number revision reach 15 before switching to alphabetic revisions) so I'd rather avoid having to set up a crazy IF function with "00", "01", "02", "03", "04", etc etc. But -

VBA Code To Split The Last Letter

Aug 5, 2012

I am looking for a very simple thing. A VBA code to split last letter of a column to the column after (offset 1). For ex. if K column contains "SEKWPRTY6" then "6" should be in L column and "SEKWPRTY" should stay in K column still. I tried this code but it gives "Invalid procedure call or argument"

VB:

Sub SplitAvail()
Dim rng As Range
For Each rng In Range("k1", Range("k" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
rng(, 2).Value = Right$(rng.Value, 1)
rng.Value = Left$(rng.Value, Len(rng.Value) - 1)
Next
End Sub

How To Add And Subtract Using Letter And Numbers

Feb 9, 2014

I am looking to be able to compare a number with a letter so for example 4c and compare it with another 5c and in that scenario see a difference of 1 but when the two to be compared are 4c and 4a it would see 0.6.

in this excersize

A=0.33333R
B=0.33333R
C=0.33333R

it is basically sub category of the initial number so an A is better than a B and in tern a B is better than a C

for example

Targeted Working At Residual
4c 4b 0.33333r
5a 4c -0.33333r
4c 5c 1
4c 5a 0.33333r
5c 3b -1.66666

so on and such forth the number and letter can be entered into seperate fields the lettering are only A,B,C but numbers can range from 1-9 i am normally quite ept with excel but this is out of my depth

Giving Letter A Numerical Value

Apr 2, 2014

I'm working on a spreadsheet and I want the letter "E" to have a numerical value of zero, and not necessarily in just place as my sheet will be regularly updated. If you're a fan of golf, you will understand what I am doing. I'm basically making a custom leader board for a fantasy golf game that I'm doing, and I'd like for the letter E to represent the value of zero when I am adding up the scores.

For example
A1: -1
A2: -3
A3: 4
A4: E
A5: -2
A6: 3
A7: 3
A8: -5
Total: -11 (have a formula set up to only count the best 4 scores).

I want to be able to add up those columns, and since only the lowest 4 scores count, I need E to equal zero. I get that I could just put 0 there, so I'm being a little picky (in golf E represents Even par, essentially a value of zero for the purposes of this game). There are 20+ teams in the game so I need E to be recognized as zero in each of those fields.
