Separate A Line Of Alternating Text/Numbers Into Columns
Jul 20, 2009
I have thousands of lines of data that are of the following form:
Jackson, TN 9623 BCBS TN 98 UnitedHlthCare 2
Jacksonville, FL 3577 Aetna 47 BCBS FL 37
Knoxville, TN 3796 Cariten 44 John Deere 41
Lakeland-Winter Haven, FL 2165 UnitedHlthCare 31 Aetna 29
I need to separate these lines into columns such that, for example, the first line would be in 6 columns: (Jackson, TN) (9623) (BCBS TN) (98) (UnitedHlthCare) (2)
The delimiter does not work because some of there is no one character that always separates the text and the numbers. I've tried going through in word and typing something like '%' where I want to separate, but with thousands of lines of data that is extremely tedious.
Is there any formula I can use that would be capable of solving this?

removing the # and numbers from text and add new line after ; symbol. So it would save me a lot of time in preparing status.

I have some data that is both text and numbers in the same cell. I would like to split the the data so that the text is in one column and the numbers are in another column.
The numbers are all a fixed length (15 chars) so I know that I can use the following formula = RIGHT(A1,15)
However I am not quite sure how to split the text as the length can vary as as well as the number of words in the string.
For example A1 is 1 word with 7 characters but A2 is 2 words, 14 characters long inc space.
A1 Goodwin 000710280740120
A2 Gillette Ridge 000715058510122
B1 Goodwin
C1 000710280740120
B2 Gillette Ridge
C2 000715058510122

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

I have two sets of data (delivery destinaition & profit) for 2 separate depots (A&B) delivering to 3 countrys (1,2,& 3). I have used a clustered column chart to show the number of deliveries to the different countries by each depot. The problem I have is that I want to add separate lines (one for each depot) showing the profit figures for each destination (on a secondary axis).

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...

I have a column (k) of 65,000 rows with numbers that are either positive or negative digits. The next column (L) has classified them as either 1 for positive number or 2 for negative.
There may be a run of all positive or all negative numbers or 2 positives and 3 negatives or any combination of positive and negative numbers reading down the column.
Reading down the column (from L1), I need to find any sequence of alternating 1 positive, followed by 1 negative or vice versa.
I am looking for evidence to find any sequence that has more than 2 alternations. (Remembering that positive is 1 and neg is 2)
That is, two or more alternations of a positive followed by a negative or neg followed by a positive.
eg
1
2
1
2
or
2
1
2
1

I need the formula to separate the numbers with commas in a cell to other columns as shown in sample.
This data comes from internet and automatically updating certain intervals, so the text to columns option has no use.

I am trying to do something that is probably impossible, but I figured if anyone could come up with a solution, it would be you folks here at Mr. Excel, so here goes.
I'm trying to set up two columns in Excel 2000; for simplicity sake, let’s just call them Column A and Column B. Each row in Column A will contain a code (a combination of letters and numbers) that represents one of 65 different workstations, and they could repeat multiple times. Each row in Column B will contain a number that represents a specific tool, and there are potentially hundreds of different tool numbers.
What I am trying to accomplish is to have something alert me when any tool number in column B appears alongside more than one workstation code in column A. It would really be nice if something like conditional formatting could be used to change the text to red or something when this happened. I know I can use filtering to accomplish this, but with hundreds of different tool codes, filtering just takes too long.

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.

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'm looking for a way to put data into 1 column from 2 different columns, alternating every other row.
The data looks like this:
A B C
1 2
3 4
5 6
And I want C to look like this:
C
1
2
3
4
5
6
I don't necessarily need to keep the data in columns A and B, as long as C follows this format.
Excellent, just what I was looking for. I couldn't get the UDF working right, I'll try messing around with it, but the Index solution works great!

I'm looking for a way to count groups of alternating rows of "TRUE" values across 3 columns. There will never be an occurrence of more than one "TRUE" value per row. In the sample below, alternating TRUE values occur in rows 4 through 7, so this would be counted with the groups of 4.

so I have been googling to figure out how to write a macro that will select every other column on my workbook. All that keeps coming up is conditional formatting, which I do not want. I am not trying to highlight the columns in alternating colors, I just want to select them.
I am starting at column F and I would like it to search until the end of the columns and select every other column ending with the last column with data in it.
I know I could search by a specific row and tell it to find the first blank cell then offset it, but there is no particular row that will always have data in it, so I guess it needs to check by column until it finds the first column without any data in all rows and then offset it.
Anyone know what I am talking about here?
I know it should be fairly simple but I couldn't seem to find any answers anywhere else.
Also, anyone know any good websites that have definitions for some basic macros? I'd love to start learning how to write this stuff on my own.
