Replace Cell References In Formula With The Header Of The Cells Referenced In Said Formula
Here is the scenario:
A B C D
BananasApplesOrangesTotal113=A1+B1+C1

I need to reference the formula in D1 with the cells headers names.

In a perfect world, it would take
=A1+B1+C1:

and produce:
=Bananas+Apples+Oranges

Replace Character Used In Formula Where Formula References Cell
I am using vlookup to get a cell value from another sheet, but if the cell has "&" or "/" I need to substitue "&" and "/" with "and" so that the cell can be added later to a url.

i am using =VLOOKUP(a1,Sheet2!A1:W17968,6) to get the value of a1 in sheet 2 and return the value of column 6

this will return "Audio Cables & Leads" but i need it to say Audio Cables and Leads

I need the formula to also check and replace "/" with "and" as well so cables/wire will be Cables and wire

Looking For Macro To Replace Formula's
I have been having a problem with the worksheet (attached) and was wondering if anyone could give me any help.

I will explain the purpose of the sheet etc first and what it does at the moment:

This work sheet is to record peoples projects, hours related to those projects, and calculate their availability 37.5-(project hours+pto) for Belfast and dublin and 40-(project hours+pto) for chicago, and also their utilization which is =((37.5-Availability)/37.5)*100 for belfast and Dublin and ((40-Availability)/40)*100 for Chicago.

When a project is added I am currently going in and updating the formula for that person to incorporate the new row which their project is on, this is proving to be quite time consuming, and I was wondering if there were any macro’s that could be used so that it would search for a name on the first column and use each of the hours that are in the column for the given week to calculate the availability?

The utilization is not a big problem as it just uses the availability so as long as the availability is correct then the utilization is correct..

If there is not a macro do you know of any way this can be automated so that I do not manually have to add to formula for each cell when a new row is added with a project and hours?

Replace A Formula With It's Value - Do I Need To Macro?
I have a spreadsheet with 2 columns (let's pretend), the first column uses Data Validation for a dropdown list. The second column contains a formula that references the 1st column and uses lookup:

=IF(A35<>0;LOOKUP(A35;NewCons;NewGroups))

So as soon as a value is selected in column A, column B changes to display a value.

Rather than just displaying this value, I would like the cell in column B to be completely replaced by this value, so goodbye to the formula.

Is there a way that I can do this? Will I need to go and study how to use macros?

Replace Causes; The Formula Contains An Error 1004
Wrote this snippet to clean a sheet but if Chr(34) or Chr(60) are in sequence or before the others it errors out (Runtime 1004 "The formula contains an error"). However, it they are last as in the example code, it runs fine, finds them and replaces them.

BTW: Chr(34) is " and Chr(60) is <

Special characters ?, ~ and * are handled as proscribed by Excel help, ie: ~?, ~~. and ~*

Macro To Replace Formula Reference
I have created a workbook that generates new worksheets with unique identifiers as tab names. I.e. On a "Create New Sheet" worksheet, input three pieces of data, click "Create New Sheet" and this data is applied to a template sheet, macro continues running to copy the template and rename is with a unique SKU.

My problem is as follows: I have yet to figure out how to generate an Index page that is updated as each new sheet is added with the following:

a) Cell containing the SKU and a hyperlink (or some other link) to that particular tab, and
b) Beside this cell, pull the contents of certain cells from that SKU's tab (such as description, but also the contents of calculated fields on that SKU's tab like current quantity and current price).

I would like the Index to be live so that if data is changed on the SKU's tab, it flows through to the Index......

Replace A Constant With A Variable In An Array Formula.
I have the following array function that I am trying to get to work properly:

ActiveCell.FormulaArray = "=SUM(IF(NCR!O2:O100=39326,NCR!Q2:Q100,0))"
39326 is the value of 9/1/2007, and this formula works properly.

I am looking for a way to use this formula but replace 39326 with whatever date is in the first row of the same column as the active cell when it is run.

That is, if the macro was run with cell B8 as the active cell, "39326" would be replaced with whatever value was in cell B1.

Auto-replace Typed Contents In A Cell With A Formula
I want to set up a sheet macro that will replace the contents of a cell (when a specific number is typed in) with a specific formula.

For instance, when "43" is typed into any cell within specified columns (say columns C and H), it changes to the following formula: =IF(D47="",43,IF(D47<=3030,408,43))(WHERE D47 WOULD REPRESENT THE CELL ADJACENT TO THE CELL WHERE "43" WAS TYPED.)

IE:

If "43" was typed into cell C1, then it would change to the formula: =IF(D1="",43,IF(D1<=3030,408,43))

If "43" was typed into cell C50, then it would change to the formula: =IF(D50="",43,IF(D50<=3030,408,43))

VBA To Autofill Formula Over Column Data Calculate And Replace Original Data

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 '/'

Set r = range("A1")

r.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=IF(RC[0]"""",(SUBSTITUTE(RC[0],""."",""/"")+0) ,"""")"

r.AutoFill Destination:=range(r, Cells(Limit, r.Column))

Replace First X Digits
I've recorded a macro to replace the Australian telephone number area codes (at the beginning of each phone number) with international dialling codes. I also need to replace the first two digits ONLY of mobile ( cell) phone numbers which, in Australia, all begin with "04" (see last part of macro code below - column L:L).

With the code the way I've recorded it, if it finds "04" in another part of the number (e.g. 0411 104 111), the second occurrence of the "04" will automatically be replaced with "614" as well which I don't want. So I need some code to add so that the macro only searches and replaces those first two digits in that column. I hope I'm making sense?!

Replace The Values
I have a workbook with two worksheets. The first is called Input and in cells C3 a product code is entered and in cell D7 the value and F10 the description.

The second sheet called History has a range of Product codes in cells AA5:CD5, AA4:CD4 holds values and AA8:CD8 descriptions.

Now for the intersting part, I need a macro to run that looks at the value in cell C3 of the input sheet and if a match can be found in cells AA5:CD5 of the History sheet then the value from D7 would replace the value in AA4:CD4 and F10 would replace the value in AA8:CD8.

Example if cell C3 has RJ12345 as the product, D7 reads £15.10 and D7 reads towel.

The code RJ12345 is foound in cell BC5 then cell BC4 would be replaced with the value £15.10 and BC6 would have the worf towel entered.

Compare And Replace ...
I have 2 Excel files that have 2 columns in each.

Product# and Price.

The Product#'s in the 1st sheet are in correct order and have outdated prices.

In the 2nd file the Product#'s are same but they cannot be sorted the same way as the 1st file. So I cannot just copy the column of updated prices from 2st one and paste it into the 1st.

So, my best bet would be to run a script or something that will get a Product# from 2nd file and find it in 1st, if it matches then copy the new price to the 1st file.

Find And Replace ..?
I have a list of sales associates that are assigned numbers. For example, John Doe is 1022. The data I have to work with only shows his number 1022 but for my reports management wants the name John Doe. I have about 60 sales associates and have a VB code that 'finds and replaces'. The code is huge. It has slowly grown out of hand, with more sales associates added daily. I also have 22 sheets in one workbook with specific columns to search for the numbers to replace with the names.

This is what I would like to do. Have a sheet named associates, as more associates are added I would just have to add their name and number. Have two columns with headers column A - Associates column B Associate #. Name ranges for the two columns and write a code that says look in the sheet associate, at named range 'numbertoname' and if the current sheet 'total sales' I am in has the number 1022 in column C replace it with the name John Doe. It seems like it should be easy but.......I have tried and tried today.

[trn][m1][c blue]€ [/c] = Euro. [/m][m2][c green]Currency of EU contries[/c][/m][/trn]

Result of replacing the first "[/c]" with "" should be:
[trn][m1][c blue]$ = Dollar. [/m][m2][c green]Currency of USA[/c][/m][/trn]
[trn][m1][c blue]€ = Euro. [/m][m2][c green]Currency of EU contries[/c][/m][/trn]

Result of replacing the last "[/c]" with "" should be:
[trn][m1][c blue]$ [/c] = Dollar. [/m][m2][c green]Currency of USA[/m][/trn]
[trn][m1][c blue]€ [/c] = Euro. [/m][m2][c green]Currency of EU contries[/m][/trn]

Find And Replace ‘*’
I am facing a strange problem with Find and Replace function of Excel. I converted a PDF document into a Word document. I copied the tables in the Word document to an Excel document. As the data had many ‘*’ characters, which I did not want, I used Find and Replace function to get rid of them. However, to my surprise, two things were happening.

1.When I tried to replace ‘*’ in a cell with ‘ Construction revenue ********************** ’, it was deleting all the contents of the cell.
2.When I tried to find all the cells with ‘*’ , it was selecting cells even without ‘*’

I tried various things like changing the format, pasting only values..etc, but nothing worked. Finally I had to use the Replace function of VBA to do the task. For further analysis I am attaching my Excel file with that data.

Find / Replace Two Different Chars
Assume someone typed the hereunder date ad TEXT.

The Formula bar shows: ="01/01/2009"
The cell presents: 01/01/2009

I need to remove the equation sign as well the two inverted-commas.

I am familiar with the "Text to Column" feature, the use of SUBSTITUTE Function, a short macro and also the Find&Replace is also a good idea but, as far as I understand,
it must be run Twice(!)

I am looking for a way to use Find&Replace in "One! shot" - meaning, to put the TWO different(!) characters [ the '=' and the " ] in the 'find what' window,
leaving the 'replace with' window empty.

I know that something similar to that can be done in a "Word" document - but can it be accomplished in Excel?
