As you should be able to see in the attachment I have 3 columns
The first column is the data I wont to search and replace.
What I want it to do is for every value in A, loop through B and if it finds the Value in A matches that of B then replace the value in A with the value that is in C.
So basically B is like a reference column.
I hope this makes sense. My algorythm is something like this I guess.
Id like to apply a formula, any formula to an entire column if it contains data, and incorporate the original data in the calculation and then replace the original data with the result. I don't want to have to create new columns.
I'm using this to fix up database results; a common problem is dates in dot format e.g. 14.11.2008
All I have so far is an autofill formula that overwrites everything. Can someone help me with the rest? I'm using the SUBSTITUTE function to replace the dots '.' with slashes '/'
Sub Create_formula_result()
Dim Limit As Long
Dim r As range
Set r = range("A1")
r.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=IF(RC[0]"""",(SUBSTITUTE(RC[0],""."",""/"")+0) ,"""")"
Limit = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
r.AutoFill Destination:=range(r, Cells(Limit, r.Column))
End Sub
I was wondering if it is possible to perform a find and replace which would replace data from another column. We have a lot of data fields of our inventory that we exported which we are trying to condense for another program.
Example: I have a description column (AV) that has [[Manufacturer]] within the description. We want to find [[Manufacturer]] and replace with our data column (DD).
This is the data that has our manufacturers name in it. We have several find and replaces to do within the description column besides the above field.
Need to sort my data in column A which contains a long list of numerical data. To do this manually using copy and paste would be easy, but not viable because of the large amount of data.
The attached PDF file illustrates the data. I wish to replace each date of dirth entry in column A (one D.O.B. in each cell / row, expressed as YYYYMMDD) with the client identifier number (format 937XXXX) a couple of cells above. And at the same time delete the row containing the client reference (or its contents). The data in column A should retain the same relationship to the data in the other columns (B,C). it may require a short piece of VBA code.
I am trying to write a formula that shows the best grade for each each student and the subject in which
that grade was achieved.
In a previous post i was shown how to identify the highest grade
MAX(IF(A$3:A$34=A7,C$3:C$34))
I hit CTRL, SHIFT & ENTER to activate the formula - Result in column E
However, I also want to identify the subject in which they scored their highest grade in column F
I have two problems
1. I don't know how to write a formula that brings in the subject based on the grade for each student
2. I don't know how to write a formula in case there is a tie (see DAVID L)
I need a formula to automatically transfer data in a column into another column, omitting cells in the 1st column that do not have data in them.
So, for example, transfer the data in column "A" below to column "C" below omitting any blanks when the formula automatically copies data over:
Example Spreadsheet.xlsx
I have two sheets, first sheet contain UPDATE LIST PRODUCT
and second sheet contain OLD LIST PRODUCT.
I want to insert and replace all data in OLD LIST PRODUCT
with UPDATE LIST PRODUCT based on PART NUMBER and TYPE.
I need to remove any attribute that doesn't have a spec in it and keep the attribute that does have a spec in it.
Width=5/8 in|Thickness=0.0150 in|Length=100 ft|Tension Cap.=750 lb [Max]|Inside Diam=|Material=Austenitic Stainless
Steel|Coating=|Color=|Locking Type=Valuclips?|Used With=|Type=|Quantity=|Wt.=3.60 lb
I need to remove for example Inside Diam=| since it doesn't have a spec about the product
Width=5/8 in| will remain since it does have a spec about the product
so after this is done it should look like this
Width=5/8 in|Thickness=0.0150 in|Length=100 ft|Tension Cap.=750 lb [Max]|Material=Austenitic Stainless Steel|Locking Type=Valuclips
|Wt.=3.60 lb
How to find and replace a range of values. I've looked online, and searched the forum with no success.
I have a list of cells in a column labled "Check #1", "Check #2", "Check #3" ect. I'm trying to build a Macro that would replace any value from "Check #1" to "Check #50,000" with "Outgoing Check". I know this can be done manually with relative ease, but it will need to be done very very very often, so I'd like to automatic it as much as possible.
How to put the steps into a Macro or Formula that could be re-produced with ease.
Attaching the excel file.
find the details below:
1. User will input the file in the "INPUT SHEET", typing the Text in Root, Uric, Lot size, Lot Unit, Display name and Series name.
2. User will select the from the drop down for Category and Type.
3. After Inputting the data according to the category and type selected. it should select the data, and Replace the Root with the inputed data to "IDX MAIN SERIES" the 2nd sheet "DATA" Sheet. and it should save it in CSV format
4. Same thing goes with the "IDX CHAIN SERIES" in the second sheet. and it should also save it in CSV. format
5. so for each and every root there would be 2 CSV file one for Main Series and one for chain.
6. The Root type can be repeatable, so if there are multiple root the all Roots should be in main series csv file and all the chain should be in Chain series csv file.
7. Same thing for the modifer sheet it will replace the data highlighted in Yellow (Data updated in "INPUT SHEET" and should save in ".TXT" format
I have a spreadsheet, where I am measuring dimensions for a cpk test. My question is, can I use vba to format the calculated cpk cell so that if it falls below a certain value it replaces that value with whatever I have specified in vba? Was wondering is this is possible.

I have two columns of data and what I would like to do is have excel look over one column ( I5-I379) and for each cell that has say 30 in it I want it to return the value from a corresponding column (G5-G379), to form a separate column.......is this possible?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am looking to Find and Replace (via ctr-F) but I need to replace it only within a range of selected cells. Each time I try to do this it replaces everything even though I have tried selecting each cell and replacing only that. Is there a way to select a certain amount of cells and replace?
View 2 Replies View Relatedsay that i have alist of data in "A2:A", which are a string file (text) and i want to rename each data to a certain name that defined in range "B1:B2" (String file too).
For Example: for range
C2 = S16e
C3 = 16/E
C4 = 18W
C5 = Site18 w
& The target name is to be:
B1=16E
B2=18W
For case above, i need to replace C2&C3 in to 16E, while C4&C5 to be 18W.
I am looking to make an excel script that can find and replace data.
Situation:
A--------B-----------C
Cat------Dog------Banana
Dog------Fish------Apple
Fish------Cat-------Orange
So the macro would look at the data in a cell in column B, then look at the adjacent cell in column C, and replace all instances of that data in column A with what if found in C. So the results would be:
A------------B-----------C
Orange------Dog------Banana
Banana------Fish------Apple
Apple--------Cat-------Orange
But that's not all, I would like it to not change cells in A that already have been changed once! (I'm trying this with changing the background colour)
I am at a complete loss and need to find and replace over 3000 items.
.Find and Replace data
I have a file that I keep importing into Excel that shows up in Column A. The Range typically varies to how short or how long the end of the file is. But every time I import a file in, the last 20 rows are the same. The 20 rows I want to replace with other values on another sheet.
This is a simple example:
SHEET_1
COLUMN A
1
2
[Code]....
I would want to replace the numbers with the letters. The biggest thing is if I can filter or have excel find the end of the file (using a shift+crtl+End) or something and have a formula on sheet2 that it can reference; then replace. Any way to have excel automatically find the end of the file and replace values without manually doing it.
at first i wrote company's name short so that i have to type less but now i want full name of company.....
like.....if in sheet#1 column B any company's name is started by Rel of sheet#2 column A , then the cell containing Rel is replaced by Reliance Industries ( sheet#2 column B but same row that of Rel) ........in sheet#1
sheet#1
A...................................B
ROSS...........................Rel
PETER..........................Reliance
JACK...........................Moser
CHANDLER...................Wip
JAMES.........................Micro

I have two columns of adjacent data Call them A & B (although this could differ)
If the data in the second colum is not equal to, blank cell or contains the words "CAT", "DOG" or "ELEPHANT" then the content of the cell in the second column should REPLACE the content of the adjacent cell in column A (in this example) leaving B blank, otherwise column B remains unchanged.
Is it possible to take a list of numbers then match those numbers to another list of numbers as a whole? I'm trying to make changes to my code and take some of the advice from previous threads, but I can't visualize it. I'm trying to get away from matching each list of numbers to each other line by line. I have an existing sheet (Master) that has several col's of data. Then I have another worksheet that has updated info that I need combined into the master. What I've done so far is added the information to the bottom of my existing data and sorted.
Now I have setup an advanced filter to display the dupes. Here is where it gets tricky..I can't just delete dupes b/c there are cols to the right that have history that cannot be deleted. So I need to copy ranges A to J of the new data and replace the old data within that range.
I want to append / replace data in cells depending on the initial data.
A cell has the value 3AB00456 XYZ
I want to append the value with My
I want to check to see if the 4th & 5th characters = 00
If YES, I want to append the value with My and replace the rest with just the the 1st 3 characters So the final value would be My3AB
If NO, (the cell has the value 3AB02456 XYZ) I want to replace with a hyphen after the 3rd character and then the rest of the cell value. So the final value would be My3AB-02456 XYZ
I have several worksheets each with a column of about 2000 cells. I want to replace the data in the cells and not create another row with the result.
I have one sheet in my workbook called 'mapping' which has a list of codes on it, the length of which will vary on a periodic basis.
I have another fairly large sheet on the workbook called 'data' (around 2000 rows) that will also vary in size. I want to do a search on the data tab for each code that is contained on column 4 of the mapping tab and if the code is found, enters the corresponding value from column 1 of the mapping tab to the cell 6 columns to the left of where the code was found on the data tab (cols H and B in this case).
The issue I have is the codes maybe contained more than once on the data tab so I need the find/replace command to search the whole of the data tab and perform the task each time.
I have a file with 300k lines of SKU data. This is data by month for 12 months (so roughly 25K SKUs per month, with changes in SKUs each month.) I take this data and pivot it and drop it into a file.
I noticed last month when I prepared that the SKUs have names next to them, and sometimes the information is pull by the name instead of the SKU. Unfortunately, in the master data, someone entered different names in a few of the months. So for example, in some months SKU 0012 is Green B and in other months it's Green Beans. I need the names to be the same.
Is there a quick way to fix this given that I'll have 12 records and maybe 3 will be one name and 9 will be there other? Finding and replacing every one is a chore because on pivot there are 40k. I don't think I can do a quick remove duplicates because it would remove multiple months. I just want each SKU to have the same name.
How can I replace the border style with a macro across my entire data?

What I am trying to do is create a list of locations for a packing slip that when I enter the corresponding location number (i.e. 200) that it will populate the shipping address in B14,B22.
Is this possible?
How to copy paste data without replace existing data or keeping existing data?
it's possible??
I have written a macro to convert data from a report exported from Salesforce.com to a format that is acceptable for upload to our website. One of the necessary conversions is to convert values from a Boolean value to a Y/N value. I wrote a macro with a series of search-replace commands such as this:
Code:
'replace 0s and 1s in "Direct Billing" column with appropriate data
Columns("R:R").Select
Selection.Replace What:="0", Replacement:="N", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
This code generates a warning when no "0" values are found:
"Microsoft Office Excel cannot find any data to replace. Check if your search formatting and criteria are defined correctly. If you are sure that matching data exists in this workbook, it may be on a protected sheet. Excel cannot replace data on a protected worksheet."
I have a table in the format below with about 3500 rows
Column A
Column B

I have a excel worksheet with the following columns: First name, Last Name, Email address, domain of email, product type, date registered. The list consists of about 50,000 entries. I want to sort the list by the domain of email(which I am able to do already) Once this is done, I want to find all instances of where a domain appears at least 10 times on the list(such as webmessenger.com appears 40 times, so I want to get that data).
For those instances where the domain appears at least 10 times, I want to pull those rows out of the intial list and put them in a new list(the new list will be sorted by domain and will only have people who have a domain which appears at least 10 times). To make this a bit more clear, The initial list I have is a list of people who registered to use the software my employer makes. We are trying to locate companies which may have many people using our consumer version of the software. When there is a large amount of people in the same organization using our software, it would benefit them to upgrade to the enterprise version due to enhanced managment features. By running this filter, I can see which companies have at least 10 users registered to use our software. Of course I will remove any Gmail/yahoo mail/msn/hotmail... pretty much any public email domains and just leave the ones that are obviously corporate emails.
So far, I think it probably has to be done with a pivot table... I was able to get a table that tells me how many instances occur from each domain, but I cannot get it to display the actual data(it just says IE. company.com 200, yahoo 120, etc... I need it to show me the 200 rows of company.com emails and extract them to a new sheet so that I can then follow up with company.com and see if they are interested in the corporate version.)
IIn my example I have result data from the 2013 USPGA Tour, ordered by player (column A) with subsequent columns detailing their finishing position in each event.
I simply want to condense each player's performance data into one row - as doing it by hand after each event is very time-consuming.
Is there a way of using a simple formula, macro or pivot table (or whatever) to merge each player into one row, but keep each column in the same position (ie to correspond to each weekly event).
