I have a work problem where my spreadsheets have the following structure due to faulty optical character recognition:
Ringholm 8 G R hem.ag Bavik Postl 115 O Amtervik
Rinman K H B dir Johannebergsg 34 Goteborg S
Risberg L kass Mitandersfors Bogen
In some cases the letters in the beginning of the cells have been misread as a number (above S as 8), so I want to search and replace those numbers with the correct letter without changing the correct numbers at the end of the cells to letters too. Is there any way to write a search-and-replace code in VBA that will only implement the search-and-replace in (for example) the first five letter-spaces of the cell?
As part of a macro i do a find and replace on a range cells that replaces "/1" with nothing (""). Therefore 2/1 becomes 2, what i don't want though is if the de-nominator includes a 1 but not only 1 to keep the whole of the de-nominator, say 8/11 does not want to become 8/1.
I am wanting to replace part of a cell ( the first two digits) with nothing - blank
eg cell contains 441298871657 and i want it to read 1298871657 I am looking for a function to do this, i have tried using the finf and replace function but if 44 appears somewhere else in the value this will also be replaced.
I need a macro that will change the part of the formula that is "CI10001G" to the value of cell A2 which would basically be something along the lines of "CI10004D" so the formula would change to the following:
='H:Folder[CI10004D.xlsm]Sheet'!$C$5
And then this formula will then successfully look in the newly directly file path.
Can you cut out part of a number and replace it in another cell. For example
A1 come in as ###+### and it will not always be a three digts all the time but I would like to keep the number in front of the "+" in A1 and the number behind the "+" into A2 cell.
all the rows of data get a unique file number , no duplicates.
the file number format is 1.01, or 241.00, or 5132.03,etc.
all numbers to the left of the period symbol are "file info" reference all numbers to the right of the period symbol are "bills" found inside the file #. there can be any amount of file #'s, always starting from 1 thru as many as there can be (apprx. thousands of files). and the bills can be from .00 thru .99
my search field ($r$9), need to search or find only the exact match to the left of the period.
NEED to search for file 1, i need the array table to kick back only the file numbers 1.01 and 1.65, not 241.00 not 3.01.
how can i search only the text before the period to the left and exactly what is entered into my search box?
I have a requirement... which need to search from a cel if it march then replace with below name. When user gives a selection screen, month displays in a cell A1.
For example: If this cel (A1) is jan then it should replace with Jan, if mar then replace with mar, if MAI then replace with MAY, if sep then replace with SEP, if OKT then replace with OCT.... and so on... or It search the cell A1 for MAI, then replace with MAY & also should search for if A1 is OKT then replace OCT, & also if A1 is DZC then replace with DEC.
I know the function of ....
[=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("*MAI*",A1)),"MAY",A1)] =
This formula brings me only 1 search, but I need 3 search if match replace with respective character. this should search for OKT & DZC ALSO....
present - new
JAN - JAN FEB - FEB MAR - MAR APR - APR MAI - MAY JUN - JUN JUL - JUL AUG - AUG SEP - SEP OKT - OCT NOV - NOV DZC - DEC
I'm using the code below to do a simple search & replace. The code is working fine. My problem is after the search & replace is done, certain cells that contain numbers look weird with decimal points & plus signs similar to Format Cells - Scientific. How do I prevent these cells from looking 'weird' in my code?
I've attached a workbook with 2 sheets called Before & After. You can see the 'weird' cells in After.
Sub Macro1() Cells.Replace What:=": ", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder _ :=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False End Sub
I have values in row A and I have values in row C. I want to create a loop to look up xxx and replace it with the values consecutively in row C. Look at example for a better Idea. I found a way to find and replace, but I not sure how to use it with qoutes. I was thinking maybe I dont even need row A and just supply a list and excel could have the chunk of data in the code itself.
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.
Where RangeX is the text currently in the formula, and Data1 is a string that references a range in another workbook. Data1 is defined before the replace function.
I am working with a lot of data and have been making a table of statistical analysis for several rock types. I have it worked out to where i can filter the data and with the use of a bunch of IF functions, below, and it keeps everything the way I want.
The problem is I have to introduce new rock types, but if I just copy the formulas over i then have to go through hundreds of cells and switch sedimentary rocks to volcanic or whatever new class i have.
How this can be done faster. Maybe some way to say "find "text" within this range and replace" i can do it for actual values but when its embedded in a function im not sure.
I'm trying to 'find and replace' part of a filepath which is buried in hundreds of formula, but when I hit 'Replace All' a file navigation window appears. Hitting cancel simply bring up another window, and again and again, each time a replace is executed.
Is there a formula where it will find all that reads 07-06 and be able to change it to 08-06? Below are samples of formulas where I am looking to change 07-06 to 08-06 without having to go into each cell and manually changing 07-06 to 08-06:
with the data in the attached sheet, I create several different pivot tables that need show the count of the information in the columns M:DU. My issue is that the data is sent to me from a third party and the columns contain zeros that cause the counts to inflate.
What I would like to be able to do is run a macro that will search out any zeros in M:DU and replace them with a blank cell.
Unfortunately the number of rows increases with every monthly reporting cycle so the macro would need to be able to accommodate for that.
If I have a store number (say 1234) and I am trying to search for something which contains 1234 (i.e. the whole string of ABCD1234, ABCD1235, ABCD1236 etc) is it possible to do this in one VLOOKUP formula?
One way of doing it would be to VLOOKUP("ABCD"&"1234",....) but I would rather do it the other way around, to prevent the formula from not working.
I have several hundred rows of date/times which I need to modify just the date (for example 08/23/2007 11:00 to 08/15/2008 11:00). Each row may have a different time so it is just the date I'm targeting for change.
If I manually use the replace dialog, replacing 08/23/2007 with 08/15/2008 works just fine. However, if in code I attempt to use the Cells.Replace function, it does not locate any data to change.
I have found that if I search for the string 8/23/2007, the dates are located and changed. Only when I attempt to find the fully formatted date 08/23/2007 does the function fail.
