Show Only The Number Of A Cell Containing Text And Numbers

Nov 23, 2009

Lets say cells A1 to A5 contain these lines of information:

Till 174 (T0215) - till keeps turning itself off.
Till 245 - stuck on windows screen
116 - keyboard is unresponsive
Berkel Scale is constantly beeping
ped not reading cards Till 156

How can I show only the numbers from these cells (i.e. B1 will be 174, B2 will be 245 etc...)? As you can see the number isn't always in the same place, and doesnt always have the same characters either side.

Number Formatting :: Show A Variety Of Account Numbers Properly

Jul 22, 2009

I am trying to find the right format that will show a variety of account numbers properly.

I have these types of numbers displaying like this right now:

9.04585E+13 (should be 90458524211818)
785656.001 (showing properly)
NRDE1312089 (showing properly)
SCGA 396.00 (showing properly)

The formatting is set to general, which works for all but the top type of account number. I tried setting to a custom format like "#.#######" ...The only problem with that format is that the "." shows up whether there is a decimal in the number or not. What's the way around that?

Show Text & Number With Number Format

Aug 9, 2007

I have a standard block of text with numbers in it pulled from various calculations in a financial model. I have done this through a formula

e.g. ="You gross profit percentage is " & D9 & "% and your gross profit is $" & D10 & "." Problem is i'd like to format the numbers that pull through so they are easier to read. At the moment in the above example D10 results in $-600000000. I'd like it to look like $(600,000,000).

Show Number On Sheet1 From Cell On Sheet2 If Cell Next To Cell Containing Number Filled

Aug 13, 2013

SAMPLE FILE "error_finder.xlsx (36.5 KB)" attached...

The VP of our company needs me to create a spreadsheet.

For this s/s I need the following:

Imagine 2 sheets in Excel...

sheet1
sheet2

sheet2 has sequential numbers in column1 starting in row2 with the number 1 until wherever..., so cell A2 has number 1, cell A3 has number 2, etc...

Manually, a user has to fill in certain text next to a number.

This for example would look something like this:

_|A| B
-|-|-----------------------------------|
1| | Error-description
-|-|-----------------------------------|
2|1| Whatever the 1st error would be...|
-|-|-----------------------------------|
3|2| Whatever the 2nd error would be...|
-|-|-----------------------------------|
4|3| Whatever the 3rd error would be...|
-|-|-----------------------------------|
5|4|
-|-|-----------------------------------|
6|5|
-|-|-----------------------------------|
and so on...

All this would be on sheet2

In a cell on sheet1 I now need the number from column A displayed, that has the latest entry in column B.

In the example above this would have to be the number 3 in cell A4, because right next to it (in cell B4) is the last entry "Whatever the third error would be..."

Addition: There are several sheets, each sheet stands for one error listed on sheet1 in column A

sheet1 for example would look like this:

_|____A____|_B_|_C_|_D_|
-|---------|---|---|---|
1|_________|833|933|934|
-|---------|---|---|---|
2| error 1 |___|___|___|
-|---------|---|---|---|
3| error 2 |___|___|___|
-|---------|---|---|---|
4| error 3 |___|___| 3 |
-|---------|---|---|---|

In this example, because "whatever error" (cell B2 to B4 on sheet2) was found on press 934 was the 3rd error (cell A4), the number 3 (cell A4) would have to be populated on sheet1 in cell D4.

Custom Number Format :: To Contain (and Show) Both An Interger And Text

Nov 29, 2009

I would like to format a row of cells. I want each cell in the row to contain (and show) both an interger and text. The interger will range in value from one to ~10,000. The text will always be two characters long...but these characters will change from cell to cell.

Elsewhere in the spreadsheet I will have a cell (w/ a formula) that counts the values of the intergers in the row, but ignores the text in each cell.

a procedure for format ing the cells in the row?

Show Numbers Based On Percentage In Cell

Sep 15, 2007

I have a rather large report full of data, 10+ columns contain a RANKING column, and these ranks, 1-10, are assigned by a % bracket:

1-20% = 1
21-40% = 2
41-60% = 3
61-80% = 4
81-100% = 5
101-120% = 6
121-140% = 7
141-160% = 8
161-180% = 9
181-200% = 10

There are several hundred rows in each column that all need individual ranks. My first thought is to program a if then else statement for 1 to 10 with a % limit range, but this isnt feasable as i would have to program a separate if statement for each of the many hundred rows, or do one heck of a fancy loop that i just cant contemplate (as the rows are split and sepperated... no solid uniform place for the data to be plugged.) What is the best way to go about this? I'm at a total loss of ideas with my knowledge of excel.

How To Come Out With Random Number From A Field That Have Text And Numbers

Nov 7, 2013

I need excluding text from a cell and come out with a random number up to 3 numbers. Please see the attached image;

If you notice in column D there is text and a number that starts with a decimal, for example on the first row is .437 the next row is .215 next row is .63 etc... Is there a way to come out with a random number mixing it up to 3 digits and output those number on column "E"? Im only interested in filtering and coming out with the random number i mentioned .437 .215 .63 etc... not the +/-.010in.

There is no right or wrong number, i just need to come out with random number using up to 3 numbers up.

Maybe for .437 three numbers up could be .440 for the next row .215 maybe a number up .216..etc..

Hope there is a way to do this, my excel file is too long to type a number manually.

Conditional Formula: If Text, Repeat As Number To Sum, Else Sum Numbers.

Dec 29, 2008

I can get only so far, then stumped:3 columns (Hours, Rate, Amount). "Hours" is a 'List' with data from from another sheet. Data is named 'Worked'. 'Worked' is all 2 decimal numeric (represents total time worked), except first item called "Live In"
IF 'Hours' is "Live In", I can use: =IF(A1="Live In", SUM(B1*1))

How can I make it conditional so that if it's not "Live In", then it will SUM(A1*B1)?. SideNote: 'Worked' LIST has total time with minutes expressed as 1/4 of hour (i.e., 1.25 = 1 hour, 15 minutes).

Concatenate Text And Numbers And Then Sort On Original Number

Jun 26, 2013

I have a data set that shows numbers for categories over time. I would like to add the data label to the numeric value and then sort the data by the original number. Is this possible?

Here's an example

A 1 2 3 4
B 5 7 4 1
C 8 0 2 1
D 3 4 9 5

I would like each column sorted independently based on the data in that column, but I want the results to have the label from column 1 concatenated with the value in the other columns such as this:

A1 C0 C2 B1
D3 A2 A3 C1
B5 D4 B4 A4
C8 B7 D9 D5

Each column is sorted by the numeric value, but has the name label from column 1 attached to it.

Cannot Convert Numbers Stored As Text To Number Format

Dec 14, 2009

There is probably a really easy answer to this question but I cannot seem to figure it out. I need to calculate the sum of pages faxed on a fax report at my office on an excel spreadsheet which is downloaded from our server. It appears the file is not meant to be used in excel but it downloads as an "*.xls" file anyway. When I open the file I receive this message:

"The file you are trying to open, 'FaxCetailReport.xls', is in a different format then specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?"

The file is comnig from a trusted source so I select "Yes" and it opens just fine. There are just over 50 rows of info, one of them being the number of pages. In a blank cell I enter "=SUM(select rows)" and the result is a "0". I have converted the cells to the "number" format, no change. When I right click on the cells and select format, the protection tab on the right has the check box "Locked" checked and unchecking it does nothing, it is checked as soon as you go back in to the protection tab.

The only way around this is to manually retype the numbers in a cell next to the pages column, which is ok for 50 numbers, but I have some sheets where there is over 1,000 entries.

Format Cell To Show % As The Number Type-in

May 1, 2014

(3) examples when I type a number to a cell:
If I type a number "1", I want that cell to show 1.000% but not 100.000%.
If I type a number ".2", I want that cell to show 0.200% but not 20.000%.
If I type a number "25.5", I want that cell to show 0.255% but not 2550.000%.

I play around with the below custom format cells but they do not work.
_0.01*#.000%
_0.01*#,.000%
0.01*#,.000%

I could use two cells one for number, other cell has a % mark. But I rather to format a single cell if it is possible.

Show Text If Cell Has Ever Had Certain Value

Feb 25, 2014

I have a excel file that tracks completion rates and has lots of formulas but there is one that I cannot figure out.

I want a formula that will display "not completed in time" (for example) if completion isn't 100% by the planned completion date. The problem I have is that I want to have a record of this and if the completion rate becomes 100% after the planned completion date it will no longer show "not completed in time". Is there a way to setup a formula that will show data in a cell if the formula has EVER met certain criteria.

I then have another cell that I want the value to show up if there is a value in (A1), If there not a value (Shown in A1). i do not want to show the value. Howeverwith the formula I have. I can delete the (A1) reference value (which shows nothing) and replace if with either a (0 or delete the contents of the cell and it works.

Match (text) Numbers To Numbers From One Cell To Another

Oct 12, 2006

I need the " solutions cells " to match to the " source cells " and return a " yes " or " no ". in cells d4:d10. Ex: #1 cell C4=01234598, it will conduct a search & match of cell A5 which contains the number 123, since cell C4 contains all 3 numbers from cell A5, then the formula would result in a " Yes ". The match has to contain all 3 numbers from the solution cells to the source cells.

Ex: #2 cell C7=67891234, it will conduct a search & match of cell A8 =901. Since cell C7 only contains the 9&1 from cell A8, it would return a " No " because cell C7 did not contain all 3 numbers from cell A8. I'm not sure if the IF, Match, Index or Count formula is the right one to use, they all seem to partially work, but still don't complete this problem.

Textbox To Show Text From Cell

Jul 16, 2012

I have text in one cell and I need a text box to show the text from that cell.

For example, if I have text in B2, on a text box I put the forumla =B2. The issue I'm experiencing is that the text box cuts off the text. There's no logic to why it cuts off the text, it's not limited to number of characters and I've played about with the margins and wrap texting, etc, all to no avail.

I've attached a photo of the worksheet to show what I'm experiencing. [URL] ..........
