Replace Cell Contents Based On Matching Data In Another Cell (On Another Sheet)?

Apr 28, 2014

I am working with a spreadsheet that has our user data; User(First) Name, User(Last) name, Computer Name, MAC address, Phone Number, Seating Position and Network Port Number.

I have let this get horribly out of sync, moved computers around, and moved them while the MAC address column was hidden, As a result, I have a bunch of users listed as being at the wrong computer. I have a second spreadsheet I generated that gives me the logged in user for about 2/3 of my computers, with the computer name(Just 2 columns, 'A' and 'B'. I would like to have Excel match the computer name and then overwrite the user name. For example, if the first computer in my correct user list is DELL-99945ty2, and the user name is "Jimbo Jones", I would like it to search the first Excel doc(The one with all of the user data), and replace the user name with "Jimbo Jones". Is this simple and straightforward?

In my main spreadsheet, the user name is in column B and the computer name is in column G, So I want to use the values from Column B in my second document to find its match in Column G of the first spreadsheet, and then replace the data in Column B with Column A in the first spreadsheet.

Replace Entire Row Based On ID

Aug 23, 2012

As per the attached file, the B2 cell representes the person ID and is equal to 2 in the worksheet "Sheet1".

The available macro from that same worsheet will simply create a new entry on the "DB_PLAYERS" worksheet with a new ID without taking on board the cell B2.

What I would like to do is: IF the B2 cell is present in the A:A "DB_PLAYERS" worksheet then It would replace data of the existing ID.

In the current attached file: if you directly open it and click on the "SAVE" button, I would need to have the 3:3 replaced and have the new last name "SMITH" instead of "KELLY" in the cell C3.

Find & Replace Values Based On Condition

Aug 21, 2007

I have a simple problem I am trying to find a set a values on a column and what to replace once found with the first 5 most left characters. Example:

in column A I can have text and numbers; the numbers that I want to find are in the following format xy:zw / xy:zw on each case the values can be from 0 to 9 so this is tons of posible combinations, I been trying to use **:** ? **:** but I don't get none. This is what I am doing

Set target = Sheets("Sheet1"). Range("A1:A9000")
For Each cell In target
If cell.Value = "**:** ? **:**" Then cell.Value = "00.00"
Next cell

A example would be 02:47 / 03:15 the next row could have 03:15 / 04:09
and so on however I could have text in some rows. In reality I would like to find and replace the cell.value with the Left 5 characters if the cell contains ANY value maching that format. Text in that column will never have that format combination

Replace Text In X Columns Based On X Criteria

Oct 17, 2007

I've attatched the workbook here with some dummy values in place of financial figures (We don't base our profit on RAND() formula's )

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 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.

See attached spreadsheet, in sheet 1, yellow columns are for restricted cells and Sheet 2 contains the lists for such columns' validation range. Sub-Strategy is dependent on the choice made from Main-Strategy, e.g. if Main-startegy = EquityHedge, then the choices for sub-strategy can only choose Long Biased, Low Beta & opportunistic.

Excel 2003 :: Find And Replace Missing The Ability To Replace Values?

Feb 5, 2009

This 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.

Find And Replace To Not Replace Characters Found As Wildcards?

Jul 2, 2013

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?

Find Part Of Text Within Cell And Replace From Another Cell

Nov 24, 2008

I need to find the "x" in range C2:C44 and replace it with a value (variable) specified in cell I2

The catch is that I then need to be ablt to change that character when I2 changes.

Coloum C
*VER
*T’x’STATUS
*ON
*OFF
*T’x’BANDS

EG

I2 - Variable = B
*T’x’STATUS will become *T’B’STATUS

I2 - Variable = A
*T’x’STATUS will become *T’A’STATUS

But " *OFF " should not change.

I can change *T’x’STATUS to *T’B’STATUS but then I can change *T’B’STATUS to *T’A’STATUS

Please see attached example file as it shows it better than I can explain it.

How To Replace Cell Value From A List

Apr 23, 2013

I have the following data in sheet 1. In Sheet 2, column A contains a list of data.

What I need to do is to compare data in Column C (sheet 1) to Column A (sheet 2).

If it matches, then Cell value in A will change to be the same value as B.

For example, range C1 of sheet 1 matches that of Range A2 in Sheet 2, then range A1 of Sheet 1 becomes the value of B1.

How can I use VBA to achieve this? Do note the data in Sheet 1 and sheet 2 changes all the time. It can be more or less.

Sheet 1
A
B
C
D
11
12
TH

[Code]..

Sheet 2

A
B
GG
TH
AA
HE

My desired results:

A
B
C
D

12
12
TH

If Then Else Find And Replace Value In Another Cell

Aug 8, 2013

I have a file that I import into excel and append to the end of the last free position, However my totals are slightly out when compared to the main system.

I have found the reason why, they randomly slips in a Credit or credits.

So I have the scenario column P has a txt field and the majority of the time it has SI (Invoice) however when they issue a credit the txt becomes SC.

The annoying bit is that Column L has a value but it is not a negative number i.e. 75 where it should be -75

I can do an iF then and find the SC or SC's and I can place some text in Column L but I would like to be able to take the value in L and make it a negative number.

VBA To Replace One Word In A Cell With Another

Feb 26, 2014

I found the below code and have tried adapting it without success.

Code:
Sub Colorize_Word()
Dim Found As Range, FirstFound As String
Dim FindWhat As String, MyColor As Long, Counter As Integer

MyColor = 3

FindWhat = LCase(InputBox("Find what word?", "Color word"))

[Code] ..........

This code finds any string in a cell of your choice and colors it red. I would really like to replace the string with my own string of text. I couldn't use the simple find and replace function as this replaces the WHOLE cell content not just one word.

I believe the line of code that needs editing most is this one

Do
Found.Characters(Counter, Len(FindWhat)).Font.ColorIndex = MyColor
Counter = InStr(Counter + 1, LCase(Found), FindWhat)

But I cannot figure out how to use the replace function with this.
