Searching For A String And Move To Different Sheets
Jul 7, 2014
I'm trying to search for a string and move the entire data to another sheet. For example,
Loading...
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
Loading...
3
4
5
6
4
3
Loading...
6
7
8

What I'm trying to do is to search for the string "Loading..." and move the entire data from "Loading..." onward to another sheet. So the first; "Loading..." 1234567 will be in sheet 1, second; "Loading..." 345643 will be in sheet 2 and third; 'Loading..." 67895 will be in sheet 3.
I have this data and want to extract the character after the letter Y if the string has a Y in it.
Example data Output
AU 2013 OD ANR B24 Y2 2 AU 2013 OD ANR B24 Y4 4 AU 2013 OD ANR B24 Y5 5 AU 2013 PD HLD NOV B SPA AU 2013 PD HLD NOV C SPA AU2013OD ANR B25 Y1 1 AU2013OD ANU B25 Y5 5 AU2013OD WCR FPVN B49 AU2013OD Y6 FPVN B49 6 AU2013OD WCR FPVN B40 AU2013OD WCR FPVN B43
Best approach for searching for a piece of string from a multi-lined cell. I am trying to do it via VBA but can't seem to figure it out. I tried FIND and Instr. I was thinking of converting the multiple lines into a single line then do an instr comparison from the result but I don't know how to do it.
Sample:
String to search = "MARY" Output Location value
Table: Location-----Names US ----------JOHN AND RINGO ----------MARTHA YULET
UK-----------JAMES THE FIRST -----------HENRY THE FIFTH -----------MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB -----------JOHNNY BRAVO
Cells in column "Names" has multiple lines Cells in column "Location" are not merged....
I need to find a way to find the first nonzero character in the string, and what position it is in. For instance, in the above example, 2 is the first non-zero character, so the function would return 5, since the 2 is the fifth character into the string.
I have a list of customers and account numbers contained within a cell. I need a formula if possible that searches from the right of the cell and then returns the all the numbers. e.g.
Arsenal1234Required formula result 1234 Liverpool2456Required formula result2456 Chelsea100564Required formula result100564
I can not use text to columns as they data is not consistant. Also worth noting is that the customer numbers vary fro 1 digit to 9 digits long.
I have a cell that is populated by clicking a button which pulls info from an external source over which I have no control. I need to confirm the selection made by the user contains one of four quarterly values: Mar, Jun, Sep or Dec. I have this but wanted to know if there is a better alternative or a way to shorten the code.
Code: If InStr(1, UCase(celltxt), "MAR") Or InStr(1, UCase(celltxt), "JUN") _ Or InStr(1, UCase(celltxt), "SEP") Or InStr(1, UCase(celltxt), "DEC") Then
I wrote some code which has compiled a LOT of text files telling me what computers have licence for certain software.
The name of the txt file is the computer name and data within is simple: -------------------- Audit of GQL license Audit of Visio license Audit of Frontpage license Audit of Project license Audit of Visual .NET license Audit of Word (Office) licenses Found Office -------------------- as we can see here this computer has 1 licence for OFFICE. If the string "FOUND" is found then i want to be able to paste the licence name in a spreadsheet and in the next cell underneath paste the filename it was found in the e.g.
VISIO comp1,comp2,comp3,comp4
WORD Comp2, comp3, comp4, comp5....and so on......
I have a table of data that I need to find the leftmost and rightmost number in that are greater than a specified number in another cell. I've attached a spreadsheet to show what I've got to work with.
I need to do this 1 row at a time and have the outcome in descending cells on the right hand side of the 2 example rows.
I need to figure out a way to search for a string in column D and then paste the entire row that string is in to a new sheet. I'd like for this to continue until I paste all of the rows of that string into the next sheet. This is what I got so far, and when I run it, it says an error occurs and then it says either press enter or paste. After I hit enter, it pastes the first row to the next sheet, but that's it. Also should I be doing this with a button?
Code: Sub SearchForString() Dim LSearchRow As Integer Dim LCopyToRow As Integer
I have about 2000 rows of text. Each row is a short write up about prospective new business. There is a reference to a projected dollar amount Within 'MOST' of the write-ups. In order to generate a report about the potential dollars being projected, I need to find an easy way to extract the dollar amount from the text.
In most cases, the projected dollar amounts are preceded by "FY2014" then a "$". However, there are a handful of cases where there is no FY2014, but some variation of the year indicator. Most of the dollar amount entries are written is short text - FY2014 - $5k, 2014 $15k. While some others are written out - FY2014 - $ - $20,000. In still other cases, within the writeup reference is made to the amount of product projected to be shipped by using the dollar symbols. For example - Estimated ship totals $$ for FY2014 = $5k. I've tried writing some formulas, but as in the last example - the first dollar signs are recognized rather than the dollar sign immediately before the value.
Sample data - Estimated ship totals $$ for FY2014 = $5K New Customer Prospect 4/9/2012 Customer has still not decided if he
2014 $15K Funco 4/7/14 working on the program for the demo ...
Over 130 samples tested with about 90% accuracy. FY2014 Ship $$ = $20,000 at least. Setter Line has 7 plants ...
search sheets by the name of cell , like name would be 17012-23-12-45 i need search by the first 5 letters 17012 , because sheet name 17012 , it would be for a lot of sheets so i need to do it automaticaly , and then that specific sheet has been found i need to copy table from there and some pictures in there
Need to move data from 14 sheets (1 pay period=14 days)(2 showing on attachment for example purposes) to time cards for each person (number of employees will vary).
Key data to move to the time card is the date of the hours, #Reg Hours, #OT hours, the ticket# and job# for those hours.(ie Chris Adams Aug 15, need Chris's Reg and OT hours (8 Reg and 2 OT) on his time sheet, and the corresponding ticket number and job number (in this case from I1, I2).
Unknown number of ticket/job numbers, but the pattern of cell entries will remain the same along the top of the date sheets.(starting at I1, then L1, O1, the next would be R1)
Unknown number of employees but they will continue filling down where the names are on the date sheets (column A). Each employee would have a time card sheet as well.
I have a column which contains a series of alphanumeric characters some start with the alpha characters and others end with them.
As an example ABS1234, 1234ABS, 12k34AB needs to be ABS1234, ABS1234, AB12k34. The number of alpha characters at the end will be a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 3. Is there some way that I can move the Alpha characters, at the end, so that they are always at the beginning of the string?
I have a sheet and basically they'll be groups of funds
so it looks like this:
Summary of Fund: Name of fund data data.. sub total Summary of Fund: name of fund2 data data data data sub total Summary of Fund: Name of fund3 data sub total
I want to grab each section and place it in its own sheet and have the sheet named after the fund.
I know this is a simple operation, but I'm new and a little slow with macros. I've gotten the code I have so far and would like a little more with my next step.
I have about 80 sheets in a workbook, and I would like to put each sheet into it's own workbook, and have that new workbook called by the value in Column A.
I have a workbook that contains 30-40 worksheets. Is there a keyboard shortcut or an easier way to move through the worksheets besides using the mouse and clicking the tabs at the bottom?
I am new to the post so far I love it. I am in need of a formula to help with an order book that I created in excel. In first sheet in colum A is the item number, in B is the Description, in C is the count, in D is the selling unit PK or Ea, and in E is the class code. I have sheets for every class code. I need to be able to pull information form the sheet one that matches the class code in colum E and only the items and info for a certain class code and post it to another sheet that has all the headings and formatting that I need. I need all the rows that have the same class code to be pulled excatly the way it is in sheet one. I thought I might be able to do this with vlookup or dget but can't seem to figure it out.
Firstly a confession - I've sinned - I got the code below while searchin the forum and in my excitement, I forgot to get the thread details - so I'm sorry!! So the credit for the code to a forum admin:
I press Shift and click on the selected sheet tabs, goto Edit> Move or Copy Sheets... the dialog box allows move or copy to a new workbook or to an open workbook. Macro doesn't record syntax for the Dialog box. This build-in function also doesnt allow me to selectively choose the worksheets in the active workbook.
I am looking for this code or a sample dialog box as I need to incorporate it as a part of my task automation macro. I would like a dialog box that allows eg. listbox to choose the individual sheets, then with option to Copy only (collectively Copy or Move are also fine) the selected sheets to a new Workbook or an already open Workbook. I am using Excel 2003.
I want to make a spreadsheet that has codes that make items show up on another sheet but how to do this.
For example I would start on sheet 1 and on cell A2 I would type the amount $100. Then in cell B2 I would type in F (I will call this a code).
Now on sheet two I want the amount on cell A2 to show up in a column of items designated for F items. If I had typed in G instead I would have wanted it to go to a column for G items. All the values under the given code will show up in the column that is represented by them.
I have a list of names in sheet1, starting with cell A3. I would like to copy sheet3, insert it after sheet3 and rename the sheet to correspond to the names in the list.
If i have 30 names I would like 30 sheets. If i add a name, I would like to repeat the copy, insert and rename steps for the extra names as i add them.
I am having rows of data, that i will be updating from time to time. I want excel to move the latest updated rows, in any column if updated, to move to the top, to easiy know that i updated those records. It should be that when i updated more rows than one, then the first updated cell would be in lower, in order, than the latest updated cells. I do not want any cumbersome vba. I want in formula or in conditional formatting. The row no may be total not limited to some rows.
Because, you naturally would have updated the 200 th record and would have saved. It saved as it is, so when you next opens it it is there, but how can i know that that is the last row of data i edited.
