I want to replace all blank cells in column A with the word "BLANK" but my problem is that I need to tell Excel to stop searching for blank cells in column A once and only once column A is equal to the last data row in the column named "Product Number". I tried this macro but, naturally, it replaces all the empty cells in the WHOLE COLUMN.
I will always have a header column in row 1. The data is below that (data will always start at row 2).
Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.Replace What:="", Replacement:="BLANK", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
How can I change this so that the find/replace macro searches all the way down equal to the last data row in the "Product Number" column?
Below are 2 examples. Example 1 is pre macro and example 2 is post macro.
I want to do is search for "&s_kwcid" or anything containing "&s_kwcid" and replace it with blank. So above would then read:
fdfs sfsd &dfsdaf&dsafdsf fdsf&dasfsdf
I tried =IF(SUM(COUNTIF(E2,{"&s_kwcid*"}))=1,E2,"") but it didn't work. I tried auto filtering, and using contains &s_kwcid* but it didn't filter out results, but find &s_kwcid did find results for text anywhere in string, so I know the problem is there.
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 need to replace a full column with a certain word. It needs to start at a specific cell and needs to replace the full column until it hits an empty cell. I can't do a find and replace because the words in that column are all different words.
For example:
I need it to replace all of column F starting at F2 with a specific word and it needs to keep replacing until it hits an empty cell.
I have a macro that searches and replaces dates (both text and date formats) in all files in a folder. It works if I initiate it from the VBA Editor, but not if I initiate it from the file.
It seems that the worksheet is not activating. Please take a look and let me know what I can try.
Things I have already tried: Window methods, such as minimizing the workbook that contains the macro, activate next, etc. Also putting the macro in Personal.xls and retrieving the values from the other file.
Where it hangs is right after the first workbook in the folder is opened. I tried to get it to select A1 in the active sheet but that cell is not selected in either the macro workbook or the newly opened workbook.
Also, if there is an easy way to exclude my macro file (name contains ZZZZ) from the FileSearch............
Search a worksheet for a user defined text string, and have excell return the contents of a predetermined column in the same row in which the text string was found.
A prepopulated worksheet has the text "gold" entered in cell T278.
1. user searches for "yellow_metal" 2. Excell finds "yellow_metal" in row 278, say in cell A278. 3. Excell then goes to predetermined column (programed as part of macro or VB), say "T", and returns the text contents of the cell in that column, T278 in this example. 4. Excell returns "gold"
I'm trying to find a function, or conditional format, that will allow to find certain text in a column and then replace all the similarities from another cell.
So basically, I have 3 Columns.

1) There is text that is recurring in the the thousands of the cells of Column 3. 2) I have used a program that found the recurring data, and put them in Column 1 3) Column 2 is what I want ever cell in Column 3 to change to when it matches the cell in Column 1 4) Is there a function that will find text in the 3rd Column that matches text in the 1st column (multiple cells in the 3rd column will match one cell in the 1st column) 5) Then Replace the text in the 3rd Column with the corresponding text in the 2nd column
I am trying to work out how to nest offset in a code using search replace. The goal is to find a value from cell A1 (example) and replace the values in the cells next to the cell containing samuel and the cell containing samuel.
A sort of search and remove data tool if you like So for example:
[QUOTE]A1: "samuel" (the search criteria) Search range is: B1:D400 (for example) Cell B40 = samuel C40 = Driver D40 = year
So, the macro is activated and finds "samuel" in B40 and I would like C40 & D40 replaced with "" The code I'm using is below: (this is just replacing the cell containing the search criteria with "test". I would like to nest offset(0,2) & offset(0,3).Value = ""
Sub Macro1() Range("B1:D400").Select Selection.Replace What:=Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value, Replacement:="test", LookAt:=xlPart, _ SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _ ReplaceFormat:=False End Sub
I've got a large Excel table that's full of names and e-mail addresses - it's a report of e-mails that merges some data from two systems we use; a registration form and a database. We want to clean up the data so it only lists folks who 'registered' (it's not always BOTH people listed - sometimes it's only one!) - and the best way to do that is to take the information from a specific column in each row, see if it exists elsewhere in the row and clear the information that doesn't match.
For example: -A----------------B------------------C--------------------D--------------E------------------F-------------------G- John ---------- Smith -------- js@email.com -------- Jane -------- Smith --------- js@email.com ------ John Richard ------ McGee ---------j@email.com-----------Jim----------Samename ----jsn@email.com-------Rich Mary-----------Ladyface ------ms@email.com--------Steve -------Smith ----------ss@email.com-------Steve
Ideally, for each row I'd like to search A and D for the string from column G. If it finds it, the cell and the two cells to the right are fine - but everything else is 'cleared' (not deleted).
So the above table would look like: -A----------------B------------------C--------------------D--------------E------------------F-------------------G- John ---------- Smith -------- js@email.com --------------------------------------------------------------- John Richard ------ McGee ---------j@email.com-----------------------------------------------------------------Rich -------------------------- -------------------------------Steve -------Smith ----------ss@email.com-------Steve
I have some macros that will look for a certain item and then move it somewhere else on the spreadsheet. However, I can't seem to get the code right to skip over the section if the text is not found. I assume it would be easiest to do it with error handling, but the attempts I've made haven't worked.
the macro will search for the text "Name" and move everything under that column elsewhere; then it will do the same for "Date." But currently, if "Name" is not found anywhere on the spreadheet, it will cause an error and ask to end or debug.
I'm trying to create a spreadsheet using several others in several different formats. What i need to do is search for a text string eg "EVP" in one column and return the numerical value of the cell in the column next to it - then sum all the values and create a table in the new sheet eg.
I need to find a word in a column, ie. "JAN" in col D (only first found is enough, not all instances) and then display message that "January has been updated", if not found, display message "this month has not been updated". The word "Jan" will be stored in a cell, so I need the code that could pick up the contents of that cell and lookup the col D (in another sheet, ie. "MthMaster") for that word.
And I need to see whether any of these appear in cells in a reference column G. If they do, I would like to return 'Used' into column B.
An example of the type of text in each cell in column G is:
"If you have any questions regarding your offer, please contact me. For any questions regarding your benefits, payroll or company policies and programs, please contact HR. Sincerely, {{Advisor_Signature__c}} {{Advisors_Job_Title__c}}"
I don't seem to able to search for a text string across multiple reference cells.
I have a long list of Titles in Column A. I want to be able to paste a link into Column B and it automatically searches the text next to it. I would like it to be simple. Something that is the same for every row, so I can bulk copy and paste.
I am trying to create a search filter that checks a cell for text or part of text in 3 columns and then filters out the rows that have a match. So there would be a cell at the top of the page with a line around it and the word type your search criteria here. The used types in a word and excel then looks into 3 columns below that have various data. If there is match then a filter action would kick in and only show the rows where there was a match regardless of the column.
Set rFound = Sheets("ProductCount").Rows(14). Find(What:=sProduct, LookIn:=xlValues, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext)
ProdRow = rFound.Column
where sProduct contains values such as SW , CO. Now, when I use rFound to query SW, it finde me this first occuring SW. I have this inside a for loop. When it goes and queries again, it should get me the next occuring SW, not the first SW that it searched for me.
I tried to search the forum first and but i cant find ways to combine everything i wanted to achieve. That's why i'm posting this to consolidate all those...Sample files are attached for better understanding. I have an excel file (sample.xls) which has cell values in column A. These values will then be used to find a match in each of the text files (in this example, sample 1.txt & sample 2.txt) present in the same folder with my excel workbook. I need a macro to perform the scenarios below.
1. Say, the excel file contains a list of cell values in column A. 2. Temporarily open the first text file (sample 1.txt) as an excel workbook. 3. Search each cell value in column A for a match in the first text file. a. If that certain cell finds a match, no matter how many it may find, that cell will be formatted with "BOLD" format. b. If not, that cell will be formatted with GRAY text color. 4. After all the cells have been used, the first text file will be closed and the next text file (sample 2.txt) will be opened temporarily. 5. Repeat steps 3 & 4, except that, when the cell value has "BOLD" format already, it will be skipped and proceed to the next cell. That is, the grayed ones can be turned back to black color and will be formatted to "BOLD" format if a match has been found in the 2nd text file. 6. If there are other text files present within the folder, do steps 2 to 5, until all the text files are searched.
Trying to repeat a 550 or so character statement with a find/replace however I am getting type mismatch errors. When I use a smaller message in the "replace" it works.
I need it to post a message exactly as long as what I have in there. How do I get it to work?
Is there a way to have a formula search an entire row containing certian text, for example "x" and have the formula return the letter of the first column that text is found?
I'm having trouble with the With statement near the bottom for the active sheet, effectively the row search. (Would be great if the font can be changed to red as well as text "Withdrawn").

I need a macro, or a formula that can identify if the words in the Words Column (Column A) is contained in Title Column (Column B). If it is, It displays as "Yes". If not, display as "No".
In sheet one I have a list of bank transactions. I want to find all transactions matching a specific search string (in $C$2). $C$2 is compared with data in column B of sheet 705334-0707-0408.
How do I get a nul value in column A (=IF(SEARCH($C$2,'705334-0707-0408'!C3)>0,ROWS($1:2),"")). I've tried to compare the result to #VALUE, and tried NOT and a few other combinations, but can't get it to work.
I cant use the contents of a different column; there are only date, details and amount. None of date or amount influence, or are influenced by the details in column B.
I am trying to write a macro to search a column for a specific text string which when found, will copy the whole row the string is in. Once this row has been copied, I then want the macro to activate a new sheet and search for the next available empty row to paste the data. Once this has been done, go back to the original sheet and find the next cell in the original column with the specified text string and repeat until the range has been satisfied. Below is the script I have that sort of works.
