Replacing Data But Keep Certain Ones The Same - Macro
Mar 7, 2012
I have a monthly report with over 2,000 entries per column and it is dynamic (number changes monthly). I'm trying to replace individual department names with "department" but keep certain ones the same. For instance- A,B,C,D stay the same but E-Z need to be changed to "department". I first coded an If then macro but was unable to get it to loop and after researching looping realized that it may not be the best option especially with large datasets. Is an advanced filter macro the best option where I filter NOT A,B,C,D and then change the results to department?

I have data in sheet 1 like below
Custid loc city
123 us newyork
124 uk wales
876 in mumbai
Sheet 2
custid newcustomerid
123 756
124 394
Outputsheet:
Custid loc city
756 us newyork
394 uk wales
876 in mumbai
So it will check sheet1 custid with sheet2 custid. If both matches it will replace custid with newcustid.if cust id not exists it will load sheet1 recprds as usual.

I am having a set of data. Every month I need to filter for some values and replace data in some cells.
In the attached file I have given the data and also the filter conditions and what column I need to change.
creating a macro where in the filters and the changes to be made are in the table. The macro should use these conditions and make the changes.

I've got a lovely little spreadsheet which looks like a more complicated version of this:
CaseResult1Pass2Fail3N/A4Pass (mark-ups)5Pass
I have conditional formatting on each cell of column A (titled Case) which looks at the next door cell in column B (titled Result), and if it turns out Pass, it colours the cell in A green. If it's fail, it colours the cell red, and so on.
So my spreadsheet, after formatting, looks like this:
CaseResult1Pass2Fail3N/A4Pass (mark-ups)5Pass
However, with the "Pass (mark-ups)" option, I've run out of conditions allowed (since I'm on 2003 excel). I can colour it in the same colour as other conditions, using the OR function, but I'd rather have it a separate colour.
I've got this macro here (which I've picked off the internet somewhere):
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim icolor As Integer
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:A5000")) Is Nothing Then
Select Case Target
Case "Passed"
icolor = 4

What it does is to activate the desired worksheet, and for 3 different choices replace what's there with what I want to be there. I put this together a while back, and it's working fine, but I'm sure it can be cleaned up a bit. Any help would be appreciated.

We have a report with 2 different sheets. On sheet one there are 13,000 rows of data and columns A-H are filled with different data. column A is our item id and column G has a date that states when the item was sold last. Well, the date in column G is wrong for about 7800 rows and needs changed.
The second sheet in the file is the 7800 rows with just the item id in column A and the correct date in column B. We are looking for an easy way to replace the rows in the first sheet with the correct information from the rows in the second sheet without manually replacing it line by line.
I almost forgot to add in, that in both sheets, column A with the item ids are the same item ids on both those sheets. So column A on sheet one has 13000 rows and included in those 13000 are the 7800 item ids on sheet 2.
We tried using the VLookup function that is incorporated into excel but had absolutly no luck, mostly because we have never used this function before. Sheet one already has all the lines of sheet 2, its just that sheet one has the wrong dates for the item ids and sheet 2 has the correct dates. im trying to replace the dates on sheet one from the dates on sheet 2 matching on the item ids from both sheets......

need to add same data to every other existing cell in the column, but not replace the data already in it, but to add to it. I've tried to google the answer and look here, but I probably use bad search terms.
For example, I need to add "QW" after each of these lines:
data1432
data9292
data3933
data3939
so it would look like this:
data1432QW
data9292QW
data3933QW
data3939QW
I have a few thousand rows of data, so wouldn't rather not do it manually cell by cell by typing :-)

It might be a simple question but ive been trying for over a week now and i just cant do it (probably cos my knowledge of VB is useless )
What i need to do is:
I have 2 worksheets: worksheet 1 Articles and worksheet 2 New Prices.
Whats common on both worksheets is Reference Nº (In the case of worksheet 1 its column E and in worksheet 2 its B), what i need to do is replace the price corresponding to reference nº in worksheet 2 (In column E) with the price of the corresponding reference number in worksheet 1 (in column N).
Its a basic find and replace, but its a list of over 17.000 articles so the best way is VB, so i look through your lists and helps, but i just cant do it.

I have two sheets - sheet1 and sheet2. Everytime i run a macro in the sheet1and manually copy the rows from sheet1 {starting (A2:AI2)} and paste as values it in the sheet2 {starting (A2:AI2)}.
Then I ll delete the available datas in the sheet1 and will run a macro for different customer.
Again I need to repeat the same action (manually copy and paste the datas to sheet2) without replacing the existing data in the sheet1.
In simple I require a macro code where it copy the available information in sheet1 and paste it as values in the sheet2 without replacing the existing one.

Basically I've got a back end worksheet with a huge table full of data (hundreds of rows, tens of columns) containing the data for a load of different contracts (each contract is on a different row).
I have all the information I want displayed on a front sheet by means of very simple lookups which looks for one contract at a time to display that information. What I would like to do is to be able to alter that information on the front sheet which will then go back and lookup that entry in the big table and overwrite the old data with the new. Effectively I want the excel sheet to act as a user form, but without actually using a form (a requirement from the people I'm doing this for). I'm struggling to find out how to do this as I don't know which VB functions I would need to use.
Each contract has its own unique reference number, so really what I need is some sort of code that will look for that reference number in the back end table, then look for any differences between what's on the front sheet and on the back end, and then replace anything that's changed.

I have set up a forecasting module for my company, which I update on a weekly basis.
Basically, I centered my forecast on an 8 week average. Using all of the various equations in a regression, the 8 week series of data is used close to 500,000 times for each week’s forecast. What I am trying to do is move the 8 week series (A#:G#) and change it to the next set of cells (B#:H#) without having to do it using a filter and change all of the various instances of the occurrence. Because of the nature of the forecast, I will be "rolling" it forward every week, so to be able to do this all at once each week would save me a bunch of time. I tried using the Find/Replace fn by having it use the * symbol in place of the #...and this worked when I had it Find the data, but when I tried to use it to Replace the data, it reported an error?

I am a not too good programmer, but I construct chemotherapy regimens for my medical department. They are used to minimise the risk of wrong dosing to patients, etc. Every regimen is an .xlt file, and about a third of them (there are about 100) generate, in addition to pharmaceutical prescription, automatic letters to patients (for those regimens where patients administer oral dosing at home).
These patient-letters have the hospital's logo on them (the logo is a "shape").
However, the problem is that another hospital also wants to use my system. So I will have to replace all these logos with the other hospital's. I would like to do this in an automated way. I have received the other hospital's logo also as a shape.
I have already constructed a data-inserting macro in a separate file. This macro systematically opens each xlt file and replaces the text in key locations according to the file the macro is in (geographical names, etc.).
Is it possible to automatically replace the logo-shapes in a similar way, with these additional facts/wishes in mind:
1. There is always only one type of shape (a logo) in the xlt files.
2. Even though the shapes are exactly the same, it is possible the names are different.
3. The exact location for the shape is different in each xlt file, so I'd like the replacement to get the same top left coordinate as the one it replaces.
I have constructed 2 different files with the same data-inserting macro, each containing one of the logos (so I can change back to my own hospital) and geographic data. When the data-inserting macro is used, I'd like it to identify the shape in the data-inserting file (there's only one shape in this file), copy it, then identify the shape(s) in the present xlt file, and then replace these, in the exact same location.

can anybody write a macro code for the following: We want to have five values representing operative time in a row with a mean in the sixth position. The hard part is to get a macro that will allow us to put in a new value in the first column and have it shift the other values to the right and dump the existing fifth value and come up with a new mean.

Have a column of cells (521 rows), on the column each cell contains a group of number
Example:
27, 539, 484, 485, 506, 594, 523, 502, 505, 525, 541, 526, 527, 529, 542, 533
28, 540, 493, 494, 506, 594, 523, 502, 509, 525, 541, 526, 527, 529, 542, 530
28, 540, 493, 494, 506, 594, 523, 502, 509, 525, 541, 526, 527, 529, 542, 533
Let's say I would like replace 27 to 163 but when I find and replay the "527" also changed to 5163. How can i filtered out 527 and just change the 27. I tried Match Entire Cell Content, it doesn't work.

I have a long list of locations in an excel spreadsheet, stating either the country (eg India) or for US locations the state (in a two letter format, eg NY). I need to change all the state location to say "USA". How can I do this, without doing 50 find and replaces? Can I do something based around the fact all the USA locations are two letters, whereas all the others are longer?

I have a file with some statistics on how agents at work performed. This file gets sent to all of them, but before we send it we change the names for a number, so that they don't know how the other agents are doing (avoiding comparisons). People had been doing this manually, but it's getting really complex as the number of agents is increasing. I know that this can be automatized, but I have no idea on how to do it. A simple formula with an IF statement wouldn't be sufficient. Here's an example of the data. The file that is to be modified to be sent to all the agents looks like this:

I am currently trying to get a formula to be added into a range after a piece of code is run.
This is because every time my code has finished, the formula somehow changes and I cannot get it to stop changing values.
I have the formulas further down my sheet, without the = so that it doesn't return a value.
In VBA I have tried something along the lines of Range("A1").Formula = "=" and Range("Z1")
Where A1 is the cell I want the formula in and Z1 contains the formula without an =
It has not updated the cells and they still have the error that I am trying to fix.
