Separate String Of Text Containing Letters And Numbers
Apr 22, 2014
I am in need of a formula that will separate a string of text. Specifically, I want to pull out the number values (including cents) from the rest of the text. This is how the text reads:
10.00 OVERDRAFT PROTECTION TRANSFER FEE
10.00
56.00 ELECTRONIC/ACH DEBIT
56.00
199.00 ELECTRONIC/ACH DEBIT
199.00
2,017.64 ELECTRONIC/ACH DEBIT
2,017.64
The data to the left is the data I am working with and the I want the results to read similar to the results on the right.

I receive an extraction from AutoCAD that lists the electrical devices in a drawing. I don't have any problems extracting the letters. I have a problem extracting the device number and the device number extension.
The device label extraction is similar to this:
DCM1005-1
DCM1005-10
DCM1005A
MTR1005-1
MTR1005-10
MTR1005A
I want to create 3 columns from the device label: (I separated the column with commas)
A1, B1, C1, D1
DCM1005-1, DCM, 1005, 1
DCM1005-10, DCM, 1005, 10
DCM1005A, DCM, 1005, A
MTR1005-1, MTR, 1005, 1
MTR1005-10, MTR, 1005, 10
MTR1005A, MTR, 1005, A

So for a program I am writing, the user inputs a text string of 200+ alphabetic letters. Only 20 of the 26 alphabet can be in this input (excluding BJOUXZ). What I need to have a macro or function do is check to make sure none of these 6 alphabet letters are present in the string, and also check to make sure no numbers are present either.
Also, I would love for the input text to be converted to Uppercase for all letter as it does this check.

Is there a way to separate text from numbers, (other than text to columns)
My data is all different lengths, nothing consistent,plus I want to put the separated data in another column.

i have a list of 2000 fields which have the same format IE "AB10014"
I need to remove the "AB" from every field and leave the #.
Besides putting a space and running text to columns I'm not sure how.

I've found several posts but none seem to peform this varying function:
EX12345678....Result in Col B: "EX" and Result in Col C: "12345678"
RTZZ4567.......Result in Col B: "RTZZ" and Result in Col C: "4567"
The problem with the formulas I've got specifically define - pulling let's say LEFT, 2 characters.....when, I may need it to pull 2 or 3 or 4. I found something that's smart enough to look for ONLY ALPHA and strip those out and place them into one column. =LEFT(A1,MIN( FIND({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},A1&"0123456789"))-1)
* I need something that's smart enough to look for ONLY NUMERIC. no matter how long the string is...and place those in Column C (like I mention in the example at the top).

A given string of some letters (from three to five, six) is followed by a single number (1-4). Then it ends, or is followed by another such combination, up to a maximum of, let's say, four.
Example:
xxxx1
yyy3yyyy1
xyzxx1yxz4xzx1
xxx2xxx2xxx2xxx2
What I would like to do is to divide a given chain of characters into the smallest chains which contain only letters and one number. To the examples given above, I'd like to receive the following sets:
xxxx1
yyy3 and yyyy1
xyzxx1 and yxz4 and xzx1
... and so on
Is it somehow possible to do it with simple functions? Or is VB necessary (which sadly I don't know)?

I would like to take the below strings and remove any numbers and just leave letters. Or extract the payee from the string. If at all possible, I'd prefer this in a formula.
Card Purchase WAL Wal-Mart Sup 320004 0532 WAL-SAMS CENTRAL LA
Card Purchase WAL-MART #0532 053201 308 N AIRLINE HWY CENTRAL LA
Card Purchase LEBLANC'S FOOD S 874301 209 S. AIRLINE HWY CENTRAL LA[code]....
Basically, (the first line above) I'd like to remove the words "Card Purchase" and any numbers...or preferably just leave "Wal-Mart Sup" instead of the full string. I'd like the product of the first line to match the product of the 2nd line.

The table below shows the notes cell & the Data I require.

I have text strings consisting of about 500 letters consisting of A, C, G and T. I need to switch A-->T, C-->G, G-->C and T-->A across the whole string. I've tried searching for methods and several techniques without success.

I'm trying to separate text from numbers into two separate cells...
Essentially, I would like the users to copy and paste data into Column A, as seen below. Then, hopefully by formula separate the text characters into Column B and the numbers into Column C.
Input: Output 1: Output 2:
Col A Col B Col C
Wells 123 Wells 123
Wells 1234 Wells 1234
Wells Fargo 123 Wells Fargo 123
Wells Fargo 1234 Wells Fargo 1234
Wells Fargo Inc 123 Wells Fargo Inc 123
Wells Fargo Inc 1234 Wells Fargo Inc 1234
Ideally, I would like to do this with a formula...

How would I split into a new column the first part which is a date into a new column, then the country and the remainder into separate columns?
I still want the original data as I need to check that the splits worked well?

there is no comma nor / to separate the string of alphanumerics is there any vba script that i can incorporate to separate the first 3 digit in the first column then 5 digit in the second column then 7 digit in the 3rd columns and etc.

I have one column that has forename and surname information and I need to separate the surname into a separate column next to the forename.
Is there a formula for this?
I've tried the formula where you can request to move so many characters to the right, but it's difficult with all of the surnames being a different number of characters.

I have address that sits in one cell only and I need to separate into two or three columns (streetname, street number, streetletter).
Is this possible as the length of street text, numbers and letter differs all the time...

I have this export containing HTML content in each cell. I need to filter out a specific code from the links included in the HTML.
HTML Code:
<some HTML>
<a href="http://site.com/content/GE6053" class="button"><span>Text</span></a>
<a href="http://site.com/content/GE123" class="button"><span>Text</span></a>
<some HTML>
I need to get the string GE#### before each " class="button"> and copy it on a cell on the right. There are other links of this format [URL] ..... in the cell, but I am interested only the ones that have " class="button"> after it.
The length of the ID after GE can be 2, 3, 4 or 6 characters long. But I am ok with getting GE + 6 characters following it as that means I would get something like GE12" cl and I will delete the extra character by doing a find/replace.

I have a large sheet of data I'm trying to sort through. Each row of data has a column that contains a long string description. Each of these strings contains a three letter codes in all caps that I want to be able to pull out. I have a seperate sheet that has all of the possible three letter codes in one column. Is there a formula that can compare each string of text to this list of three letter codes and if it find a match put that code in a column on the original sheet?

This is an example string of text. An example three letter code would be HCB. The location of the code within the string varies.

creating a formula to separate the text from the numbers into 2 separate columns.
Examples are:
A1= Angel Romero 260.00
A2= Wieben Chiropractic Clinic 74.00
A3= R Ricardo Ramirez Dds 340.00
The 'Text to Column' function does not work because there is no fixed width and no deliminater. To add in a deliminater, like a "", is an option but there are thousands of cells to do this to.
As you can see, using LEFT, RIGHT and MID functions become tricky since the deliminater would be a "space" but there are often several "spaces" in the string of characters.
Is there a way to SEARCH or FIND the first number and let that be the deliminater?

I know I can use text to columns to do this. I have horse results listed in column A as follows 3.5L (i.e. 3.5 lengths), 4L and so on. Every number ends with an L. I want a formula in column O that just gives me the number as below:
3.5L 3.5 (in column O)
4.5L 4.5
and so on.
