Replace Multiple Columns Between Files?

Aug 24, 2012

I am trying to import 16 columns from one file into another (please reference the attached images). I need each line to match an identifier (in this case the players name (column A in MASTER and Column B in NEW)).

In the NEW file, each column to be imported is titled Stats1, Stats2, Stats 3 (up to 16.) These headers are identical in both files but a complication is that the NEW file only has 900 players (lines) and the MASTER has almost 1600.

Sidney Crosby's 16 Stats column from the NEW file needs to replace Sidney Crosby 16 different Stats columns in MASTER.

Find Replace For Multiple Columns?

Oct 28, 2011

I have been put together some simple coding to find and replace a value (1) that i have obtained from a pivot table. My aim was to replace any "1" with the column header. The reason for this is that the cell(s) will be used in a VLookup at a late stage.

My problem is that I have the code to work for a single cell, but I want it to work for multiple columns so I don not have to create multiple macros.

I need to go from Column C to AW. I have a total row at the end - hence why I am using 'Step - 1'.

Code:
Sub FindReplace()
Dim i, lRow
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual

[Code]....

Finding Matching Data From Multiple Columns In 2 Different Excel Files?

Sep 27, 2013

I need to find if there are matching addresses in 2 different excel files. If the same address appears in both files, I would like the new worksheet to return the address along with the sale price from the 1 file and the rental amount from the other file.

I have tried using vlookup but the problem is the exported data file contains the street number in one column and the street name on another column. I have attached a truncated example of both the rental data and the residential sales data.

Find And Replace Keeps Trying To Open Files?

Dec 6, 2012

I'm copy and pasting many formulas from different worksheets. After pasting, I'm trying to go into each of the cell references and update it to the new worksheet. For example, let's say the cell has a reference to another cell of: ='Worksheet 1'!xx:xx I want change about 50 cells like that at once to ='Worksheet 2'!xx:xx However, every time I pick the Replace feature, either one at a time, or all at once, it opens the Open file dialog box. I've confirmed that it definitely "Finds" everything correctly....it just happens every time on the "Replace".

Replace String In Over 250 Excel Files

May 27, 2014

I've been given the assignment to replace an old company name with the new one in an excessive amount of excel files. All the excel files seem to be some kinds of forms with fancy buttons and such. I've been trying to research this quite a bit but only found some shady programs which I'm not installing on company computers so I decided to write a batch script to try and accomplish this, if you have any other ways to do this do let me know. So far I've only got a basic skeleton of the batch script, like looping through all the excel files in a directory and then loop through all the worksheets within the file. Here's how it looks

I just want some confirmation that this would actually work and how to replace all occurrences of a string in a workspace.

Links To CSV Files, Find And Replace Not Working

Apr 9, 2009

I have a large spreadsheet that has links to CSV files. Every month I need to create a new folder and put the CSV files into that folder, all the CSV files from month to month have the same name for each worksheet.

I'm trying to do Find and replace on the Folder name within the links to change say, February to March so I can just add the CSV files for each month and the spreadsheet will link to the new CSV file in the folder.

I have even tried adding all the February CSV's to the March folder so that when I overwrite the CSV's it will update the master spreadsheet, but it keeps asking me where to look for the folder.
Here is an example of a link:

='\FileservermsbilBRANCH REPORTSBM ReportsFebruary[TItemToDispense@40186 Export Dispensed Item Data-00.CSV]TItemToDispense@40186 Export Di'!BM2

As you can see the folder is named February within the link and I need to replace it with March.

Convert Multiple Files To Text Files

Sep 26, 2007

I have about 100 Excel files in one folder that need to be saved as text files. They can keep the same name, but simply need to be converted to text files. I'd like to use VBA for this and I can't find examples that do exactly that...or ones that my limited knowledge can handle.

Excel files exist in C:Source and ALL of them should be saved as text files in C:Destination. Maybe there is an easier way, but I thought for sure there was a routine I could use.

Text To Columns - Find And Replace

Jun 20, 2013

I work at a club. I've got a spreadsheet sent to me from another club we do business with. On it are charges from their club to ours that list the charge and associated member number.

I'm trying to use the text to columns feature to separate the member number from the other data in the column so I can sort by member number making it easier for us to bill our members.

Here is a sample of the data:

"Beach Club Bar,b500"
"Beach Club Bar,s200"
"Beach Club Bar,a150"

When I try to use text to columns what happens using the comma as a deliminator, everything including and after the comma disappears.

Thinking that maybe I needed a space between the comma and the member number (in the first line b500 is the member number) I tried to use find and replace to replace , with , and a space after it. This also resulted in all of the data including and after the comma disappearing. I'm sure I'm missing something here.

I tried copying the data into a separate spreadsheet. Tried changing it to text or general.

I typed in the exact data as you see it and tried the text to column function and it worked perfectly. What could be hidden in the data in that column that's causing this?

Excluding Certain Columns With Find And Replace

Mar 22, 2013

I am writing a macro that will find several different values in sheet1 and replace them with values from a table in sheet2. It currently does exactly that but I realized that there are instances when replacing hyphens isn't appropriate and will ruin the upload of my data. I need to replace it in the rest of the columns though. The headers will always be the same, such as "MST" , so I could use that as a conditional statement I just don't know how to go about it with the replace function.

Code:
Sub FindAndReplace()
Dim LastRow As Integer
Dim i As Integer 'Counter to loop through all the rows found in the table

'Finds the last row used in my replacement table and sets that as the searchable range

LastRow = Sheets("Sheet2").Cells.Find(What:="*", SearchOrder:=xlRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious,

Essentially, I would like to search for CAN in A and SER in B and if they're found, to alter them to SYD (A) and CAN (2). It's essentially an automatic find and replace, but based on 2 criterias rather than one.

I need to find, then replace a particular value ("/0"), however, some cells may be hidden. And I just discovered that I can not replace the value of a hidden cell! Am I missing something, or do I have to unhide the row/column that the cell is in and then replace it? ...this does not replace the "/0" with "0" if the row the cell is in is hidden.

Sub test()

Dim rMatch
Set rMatch = ActiveSheet.Cells.Find(What:="/0", LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole)
rMatch.Value = "0"

Create Multiple Files For Multiple Groups Of Data

May 9, 2008

I have one main Excel file with information (in example file - columns A & B). I want to create 4 other Excel files that will draw from the main one (in example file - columns D, F, H, & J). I want the information in Excel file A, B, C, and D to be continuous information that matches the main file. For example, the letter A matches up with numbers 1,3,4,10,11,13,15,17, and 19 in the main file. When I open Excel file A, I want a continuous list of these numbers. And I want this for all 4 Excel files which draw from the main one.

Search Across Columns By Row & Replace Specific Cell Contents

May 2, 2008

I have created a desk planning spreadsheet in excel. Each week a mailmerge sends out an email to everyone in the office asking them to confirm when they will need a desk in the next week.

As the normal employee doesnt get involved in desk planning I want them simply to state whether they will be in the building or not by entering "GH" (our building) in a cell under each day in the email they get sent.

When the reply comes in we select the cells from the email and then paste them into the desk planning spreadsheet.
-----

WHAT I NEED TO DO:
Select some cells (must be in the same row - that we have just pasted in).
Press a button on the Worksheet labelled "Auto Assign Desk", which does this:-
For each cell that contains "GH", replace with the right-most cell to the left of the selection that starts "GH_"... (this is the start of a unique desk reference (GH_1_1, GH_1_2,etc.)
-----

This will assign the employee to the desk they were sat at last, when they are in the office next week.

Import Multiple TXT Files To Multiple Sheet

Apr 13, 2014

I need to create a dynamic template for importing data from multiple .txt files to my workbook on a daily basis.

I recorded the macro for importing ONE txt files and starting to deveop it into looping through multiple txt files and sheets but to no avail.

1) Currently I have 4 named ranges

FileLocation = Location of my source file
FileName = All the file names of my txt files
SheetDestination = The sheet to be paste for each txt file (further explaination below)
FileFormat = .txt (for VBA purpose)

2) The macro recorded was in "ActiveSheet", thus I thought of looping through each sheet (put the activate code at the first line) for the codes to run.

3) ColA ColB
1SP.txt
2IND.txt
3US.txt
4
5
6

Column A is my SheetDestination, while Column B is the respective filename for source txt file. My final intended result would be simply macthing sheet 1 against SP, sheet 2 against IND, sheet 3 against US... so on and so forth....
