I'm using Excel 2000 and I have downloaded a report from another system. The dates come in for example in the format 10.06.2008. Using the replace functionality I can change this to 10/06/2008. However, when I do this using VBA
Range("L49:L300").Replace What:=".", Replacement:="/", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
it works on most but some of the dates get switched to 06/10/2008.
working on a sheet I have one col that is formated for dates (yyyy-mm-dd) this is fine if you enter a date from the 1900's or 2000's but enter a date from the 1800's and it's a no go!
example:
Enter 14 jul 1941 and it formats 1941-07-14 no problem
Enter 14 jul 1841 and you get nothing just 14 jul 1841 no formating at all. And this is the same for all the date formats.
hi i have a formula in a module that show a date as such

I'd like to import some dates into some textboxes on a userform.
I'm also going to let the user edit these, however... what i'd like is for the user to be forced to:
1) enter a date in the format dd/mm/yy
2) Enter a valid date (eg, not feb 30th)
I'm wanting to use Excel's built in replace function to replace ANY date with "Call:"
I'm not going to go into details about why, but I cannot use a code, as I only want to change them at specific times.
The dates are currently formatted as 12/09/2009. So I need to change the 12/09/2009 and any other date there may be to "call:" without having to go through every possible date.
I have a list that looks like this:
1. Here I have som formatted text.
2. Here too.
10. And here.
110. As well as here.
The content of each line is in a single cell.
How do I go about automatically chopping off the number, the dot and the space before the text, but retaining all formattings?
I am trying to convert the following macro to a Worksheet (section change) format, but cannot figure out how to have the cells B87:M150 change based upon the text (red, green, white, amber, na) in O87:o150.
Sub ordinate()
Dim r As Range
For Each r In Range("o87:o150")
If r.Value = "RED" Then
r.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
ElseIf r.Value = "AMBER" Then
r.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 44
ElseIf r.Value = "WHITE" Then
r.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 2
ElseIf r.Value = "GREEN" Then
r.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 4
ElseIf r.Value = "NONE" Then
r.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 2
ElseIf r.Value = "NA" Then
r.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 15
End If
Next
Range("N86:IV132").Interior.ColorIndex = 2
Range("A86:A132").Interior.ColorIndex = 2
End Sub
I have several hundred rows of date/times which I need to modify just the date (for example 08/23/2007 11:00 to 08/15/2008 11:00). Each row may have a different time so it is just the date I'm targeting for change.
If I manually use the replace dialog, replacing 08/23/2007 with 08/15/2008 works just fine. However, if in code I attempt to use the Cells.Replace function, it does not locate any data to change.
I have found that if I search for the string 8/23/2007, the dates are located and changed. Only when I attempt to find the fully formatted date 08/23/2007 does the function fail.
Using 2003, I'm trying to do the following, data starting in A3, and ending in L3:-
- If A3 is blank, cells have no format
- If A3 has a value, with A4 blank, fill is light blue and bottom line solid, top line dotted
- If A3 has a value, and A4 does too, fill is light blue, top and bottom line dotted
- If H3, which is a date field, is greater than today font is black, if less than today, font is red
I have DR and CR entries which are laid out. in the traditional T format (under the Ledger tab). I would like to have it formatted to the modern ledger type where there are no left and right but rather laid out in 1 page. The required layout is shown in the Ledger attachment

View 2 Replies View RelatedI simply want to find and replace a character within many cells that have the format general using VBA code. The cells are all dates and are seperated by a '.' but i want them to be seperated by a '/'. I have used this code below to do so, it changes the '.' to a '/' fine but it swaps the month with the day e.g. '08.09.2006' would become '09/08/2006'.
Cells.replace What:=".", Replacement:="/", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False
I have noticed once the code is run it changes the format of the cells to date, even tho i include the 'ReplaceFormat:=False' function.
When I remove "Release date:" from "Release date:24 December 2008," excel will automatically change the text to "24-Dec-08." Yes, I did try to format the column to "text" before using find and replace.
This wouldn't be a problem, except that half the dates are in Dutch, so only half the dates are changed, which means that I can't make all date formats in a column uniform.
I have a column of over 20,000 rows, showing employee hire dates. For the purposes of a specific calculation, I want to replace all the hire dates that are prior to 1/1/2011 with 1/1/2011. Is there a simple way to do this all at once with a Replace statement in my code without having to look at each record individually?
I know how to replace one specific date with another all at once, but I don't know to do it when I'm looking for more than one specific date.
I have a SAP application that outputs a field of data from a specific query. One column, the date, is produced in the format 18.02.2009. Is there any excel 'trickery' that can convert this into a standard british date format i.e. 18/02/2009 & then allow me to sort the entire data field by ascending date order?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis problem has come up fairly frequently lately, and I'm not sure how to fix it, or if this is by design...but in Excel 2003 I can't seem to do a "Find and Replace" based on the value of a cell. I can do a find, based on cell value, but the moment I change to the replace tab, the "values" and "comments" are missing from the "look in" dropdown.
I've only noticed this when I'm trying to replace on a filtered list, so I'm not sure if that is part of the issue.
Perhaps an alternative way of arriving at the same goal. Basically I have a worksheet with a number of filtered columns. They are filtered just right, using custom filtering, and so I do not want to undo the filters. In some columns I have formulas that are returning #VALUE! errors. I'd like to replace all of these cells with NA.
I recently became owner of a spreadsheet with some issues, and I am trying to make it useful. Each row has a URL of a blog post, and I want to extract the date from it (which is present in each URL) while getting rid of the rest of the URL. I was able to get rid of everything up to the year (which comes first), but then the URL continues, for example, 2013/05/16/the-rest-of-the-url/ and I would like to just have 2013/05/16 remain.
I am trying to use find and replace with the find box reading 2013/??/??/*/ and replacing it with 2013/??/?? which effectively erases everything else in the url, but leaves ?? instead of the numbers. Is there any way to have it so that it keeps whatever was in the original box?

Trying to repeat a 550 or so character statement with a find/replace however I am getting type mismatch errors. When I use a smaller message in the "replace" it works.
I need it to post a message exactly as long as what I have in there. How do I get it to work?
Need assistance with the code for catching errors when using the find / replace function in excel? In particular, I am trying to write code to break to an error message when the value or string searched for isn't found in the find / replace. At the minute I have just copied the standard code using a macro and all this does is return a message box saying X entries replaced.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have values in row A and I have values in row C. I want to create a loop to look up xxx and replace it with the values consecutively in row C. Look at example for a better Idea. I found a way to find and replace, but I not sure how to use it with qoutes. I was thinking maybe I dont even need row A and just supply a list and excel could have the chunk of data in the code itself.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have this data 0123-4567-8 but in the formula bar it only shows as 12345678. When I looked at the format it has as Custom 0000-0000-0 and it would be correct. The formula that I used to extract the numbers without the dash is =LEFT(A3,4)&MID(A3,6,4)&RIGHT(A3,1) the result is 12345678 So when I reference this number to 012345678 I get the wrong answer.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a macro where it finds a a certain word in a column for example C. What i want it to do is find anything that says FWD_EUR and then replace that cell (e.g C2) with CASH_EUR_FWD and after it has done that it replaces the adjacent cell (e.g. D2) with EUR_FWD. I then want this to do the same with FWD_USD to CASH_USD_FWD and adjacent cell to USD_FWD.

First and foremost I would like to congragulate you on this wondeful piece of code in the below link...
The query was to get a future date excluding Fridays and Holidays...
http://www.excelforum.com/excel-work...rkingdays.html
I have a similar query and therefore I pasted this link...
I actually wanted to get a future date using a Dynamic two day off as my the offs keep on changing as well as incorporate Holidays and Leaves if any..
Now Holidays would be official Public Holidays and
Leaves would be taken by the employee..
The code needs to pick the Leaves + Holidays and different offs maybe even more than 2 offs...
I have a table of data (total 142 rows). Column contains dates, in the format dd-mmm-yyyy.
I tried to filter using DATE FILTERS->EQUALS and in the custom filter window, I chose EQUALS then picked a date from the date picker icon. The date I picked was 5/4/2009 (this is May 4, 2009, formatted automaticall by excel as m/d/yyyy).
When I clicked OK, nothing showed up despite the fact that there are 6 occurences of May 4, 2009 (formatted as dd-mmm-yyyy in the data table)
So my questions are:
1. Is this due to the formatting?
2. Is there a way to change the date format supplied by the date picker?
I am now trying to create a excel macro to auto populate all the dates with reference to a start date and end date. The catch is that only working days are required in the range. My reference cells (start and end date) are in Sheet 1 while the destination cell range are in Sheet 2. The reason for creating a macro instead of a function is that the intervals between the start date and end date changes frequently (annual, semi-annual and quarterly) Best case scenario would be a button which I can just press after i input the dates to generate the range of dates in another sheet.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to workout how to take a known initial date a repeating frequency and work out the next due date from today.
Example
Initial Date :- 1st of January 2014
Frequency :- every 5 weeks
Current Date :- 9th of March 2014
Next Due date should be :-12th of March 2014 (if I worked it out correctly from my paper calendar)
I want to use a cell formula to do this for different initial dates and varying frequency periods (the frequency will always be whole weeks i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,8,10)
I need to create formulas that reference a single date and output date ranges. The objective is to have a person input a Monday date in any given month and receive a four weeks out worth of dates and ranges. For example: In a lone cell, the person inputs 10/13/08. Automatically, the sheet produces the next full week range: October 19 – October 25 in a single cell and also produces a cell for each date. Example: Sunday 19, Monday 20, Tuesday 21, etc…. It should look like:
Monday Date:
10/13/08
October 19 – October 25
Sunday 19
Monday 20
Tuesday 21
Wednesday 22
Thursday 23
Friday 24
Saturday 25
and then repeat for three more weeks. I thought I had it figured out until the month changed. The dates continued in October instead of adding a month. This report will be ran weekly, so simply adding a +1MONTH to some cells will not benefit me as I’ll have to change the formula every week. I want the formula to compute the data without any manipulation over the next several years. The only change will be the Monday date.
