Replacing Short Strings
Jul 28, 2008
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?

finding or developing a compressing technique, which can compress a 7 number string i.e., 11,10,1,2,10,7,5 down to 6 or 5 lossless, that would be amazing.
I already researched many compression technique; Huffman, Run-Length and LZ78 which all do well on large data sets and I only have a few numbers. If it helps by converting the numbers to binary for better compression then I what to known. I know that a solution could be impossible as we would know about it already but may be someone knows a trick to get rid of one digit.

I need to do a vlookup that takes a string from one cell and then tries to find that string (embedded in a larger string) in the table array
Essentially I imagine this involves the FIND function at some point.
Attached is an incredibly simplified example of what I'm looking for.

I have an excel worksheet with about 10K rows of data in column A.
I have also another list of data, about 200 rows of data, in column G.
I need to color each cell in column A that contains, anywere in the string, any of the data strings in column G.
Example:
in column A
row 1: info@duende.com
row 2: rasko@silvester.com
row 3: supportonline@fabius.com
row 4: myhelp@friday.com
in column G:
row 1: help
row 2: info
row 3: support
I need rows 1, 3 and 4 in column A to be colored.

I've been working with the getshortname() API, but have found that it has trouble handling strings that are already in short name format. I used a trim function to work around this. Now I find another problem; the API doesn't change paths with spaces in them. for example:
H:WCMGMTWC ProdBackup2
should return
H:WCMGMTWCPROD~1Backup2
Here is the
Private Declare Function GetShortPathName Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetShortPathNameA" (ByVal longPath As String, ByVal shortPath As String, ByVal shortBufferSize As Long) As Long
Private Sub Test()
Dim longPathName As String
longPathName = "H:WCMGMTWC ProdBackup2"
'
'Get the size of the string to pass to the string buffer.
Dim longPathLength As Long
longPathLength = Len(longPathName)
Dim shortPathName As String
shortPathName = Space$(longPathLength)..............................

When u open a new sheet the down scroll is limited to the screen size - very comfortably the scroll automatically increases its span as one uses more rows.
HOW DO I REVERSE IT?!?!
I had a 10K rows and I narrowed them to 100 (transpose). How can I shorten the scroll down ruler?

I have a list of products more than 5000 positions (rows)
Some positions are repeated (It could be 1000 rows with "Pen" position)
Based on this I need to create new short list which will contain the list of ONLY UNIQUE positions.
The same function is: DATA - FILTER - ADVANCED FILTER - UNIQUE RECORD ONLY
It is only filter, but i need the same functionality for new short unique list

Loaded M/S Office 2007 on the puter, works well, can create shortcut to program but not to a file.
I followed the correct procedure but the shortcut will not work, I just end up with a blank screen.
If I go the long way around through excel -open-folder-file, yes it works but we do love our shortcuts don't we

I've got a variable path for a file stored in a cell inside a worksheet that I need to convert to the old dos format (no spaces).
From c:Awesome FileFTPMy Awesome File.txt
to c:Awesom~1FTPMy~1.txt
The actual path/file name is much longer and is determined by multiple fillable fields, cells, and drop down menu's so the only feasible way at the moment seems to be that I need some code to convert the file/path name all at once.
After doing a little searching on google I came up with several that could determine the short path name of the actual workbook, but none that could convert a path that was different from the workbook.

I need to extract key cell info from a master list when one of the cells meets a certain criteria.
Example:
Each row of the main sheet represents a Purchase Order with columns A-M each containing text, numeric, or currency values regarding that PO. Column F represents a 4-digit activity code that defines exactly what was purchased. If the activity code for a row is in the 1000 series (1000 -1099) I need to assign info from 3 other columns (say B, E, &G) to a subsequent sheet for tracking.
My limited Excel-o-vision has built this: (sheet 1 represented as FY10)
=IF(AND('FY10!F4>=1000,'FY10'!F4

I have an Excel report that I import from IBM Clear Quest tool (Web App). A field, 'Submit_date' in this report has data in the following format:
'Jan 12, 2012 12:00:00 AM'
If I double-click in the cell the cursor is after the AM. When I click outside of the cell, the date time stamp changes to 1/12/2012.
My question is, how to change the entire column so that all data gets converted to short date (mm/dd/yyyy) and thereby making it a data sortable field.

I recently moved to Central America and now am working on models that are either in $ or in the local currency (Q). I do not want to change my default currency value in the regional settings of the control panel because it is more convenient for me to stay in $ but it is a pain everytime I want to set a worksheet in Q and not in $.
So, I am wondering how I can change the default values in the currency drop-down list on the Home toolbar under Numbers in Excel 2010.
Currently, it gives me the change to apply the following currencies:
- $ English (US)
- £ English (UK)
- € Euro (€ 123)
- ¥ Chinese (PRC)
- fr. French (Switzerland)
Instead of either the £, ¥ or fr., I would like to have listed the Q, my other frequently used currency.

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?
