Greek Characters Dont Display Properly

Apr 9, 2008

I cant seem to get an excel file that I have received from a Greek collegue to display Greek Characters properly.

Some of the lines in the file with Greek appear to be correct and have not been turned into gibberish.

In addition the cell properties of both the correctly displayed cell and the gibberish cell are exactly the same and in the cell format sample the gibberish is displayed as Greek Characters.

Ive tried formatting the corrupted cells with the uncorrupted cells format but that doesnt seem to have any effect.

I want to be able to type 'A' in cell A1, then autofill down to get:

A1: A
A2: B
A3: C
A4: D

Etc.

Once I get to cell A26, which would be "Z", I want to continue to get:

A26: Z
A27: AA
A28: AB
A29: AC
A30: AD

how I could do this? I tried dragging cell A1 down but it just returns the result of "A" in all the rows.

I have a worksheet with a list of ID Numbers:

A1001

Is it possible to take a list that is alphabetized in the following manner--Jones, Mary--, convert it to Mary Jones while also removing the comma after the name?

Jump To Names Based On Alphabet Letter

Mar 20, 2009

I have a long list of names and right now I have to scroll down the list like crazy to get to some of the letters (xyz for example).

I really wanted to setup a clickable row or column that has one letter in each row or column, but I'm not sure I can do that as the sheet is already formatted. But I could just use one cell where I could click in it and type a letter which would jump me to the portion of the list that starts with that letter.

or I guess maybe something that pops up a requestor for me to enter the letter.

I found some stuff that was close on here that had some of the functionality I needed, but I couldn't piece it together.

I'm trying to go through David's books, but I haven't had a lot of time and I'm not getting some of the basics.

Macro To Convert Numbers To Alphabet Letters & Sum Range

Sep 23, 2008

First my goal is to sum a row and column. For example i want the sum of row 1 a to row 1 g. However, I'm using a loop for an automated macro. So i want to be able to say something like cells(1, count), so during the loop count goes from 1 to 7 representing the letters in the alphabet. But I'm not sure how to do so.


Secound, in my vba script to pull information from specific pages i say "sheet1.activate" how can i had the sheet switching during the process to speed up the calculation? and last but not least,

If Cells(1, locd) = "2008" Then

When i run my script, i get a runtime error 1004 application-defined or object defined error. The weird thing is, i can move what line it is on and then the macro will run ONCE and then it breaks again with the same error for that specific piece of code.

Randomly Select From Alphabet Based On Letter Frequency Distribution

Jan 8, 2008

I want to randomly select letters from this distribution (to make random words) but I want the more frequent letters in the distribution to be selected more often so that the word I form have the same distribution. I have the feeling there is a simple solution to this but I couldn't see anything other than the frequency function that I thought I might be able to use. I could populate an array with letters present in numbers according to their frequency and then randomly select from it but is there a more elegant solution? .......

Excel 2010 :: Auto-increment Alphabet With Existing Data?

Mar 16, 2012

I have made a custom list in Excel 2010 so it auto-increments the alphabet using the auto increment pull down/copy square on the bottom right of a cell in Excel. My question is I have some data in a sheet such as this

600
600
600
600
601
601
601
601
602
602
602

What I want to do is add a letter of the alphabet to the end of these numbers and have the alphabet auto increment based on the data above like this:

600
600A
600B
600C
601
601A
601B
601C
602
602A
602B

I thought it would be simple since I now have a custom list but every formula I try fails.

Get Column Alphabet Based On Data It Contains Or Column Heading Using VBA?

Oct 28, 2011

How to get the Column Alphabet based on the Data it contains or the Column Heading using VBA?

Is it possible to get the Column Alphabet using any Macro or any function that within a Module it can always take the New Column Name during Execution..

Example: I have certain Columns where I have Yes and No Tick using the Wingdings P and Y..
Now these Columns are alternately Placed and there are six columns in all and they are spread over 12 Columns as the Alternate COlumns is reserved for Manual Entries.

Now I intend to increase the Manual Entry Columns but the problem is that every time I do that I need to make changes in my VBA Code.

Is it possible that even when the Columns are Inserted or Deleted in between before or after these columns I dont need to change the Explicit references by changing some approach.

I am not fuly conversant in VBA but use it whenever things are not completely feasible with Formulas AFTER GOOGLING.

Code:

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("X3:X13")) Is Nothing Then ' You can Change the range here
Cancel = True

[Code]....

As you can see the Ranges are Alternately Placed and there are about 6 such Columns with the above TICKS..

Now, how do I keep it FLoating so that even after changing the COlumn Location it does not need to get Updated i.e. X and Z Column Alphabets..

Sorting MP3 With VBA

Oct 4, 2003

I don't understand all of it, but I observed that it works only with mp3 with tag id v1, not v2, anyway I also see another code for tag id v2 given by NateO.

But before entering in detail of what I want, is it possible to edit tag id v1 or even v2, with VBA? Because I want to complete my mp3 informations that are missing, or modify the wrong one, in excel, and then with a macro update my mp3 files...

I've found this code on the forum to get my mp3 informations :

Option Explicit

Public Type mp3Info
Header As String * 3
Title As String * 30
Artist As String * 30
Album As String * 30
Year As String * 4
Comment As String * 30
Genre As Byte
End Type

Sub Getmp3Info()
Dim mp3ID As mp3Info
Dim lngRow As Long, lngFile As Long
Dim lngFileCnt As Long

With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.Filename = "*.MP3"
.LookIn = "H:Daniel" 'Change this to the folder you wish to search
.SearchSubFolders = True........................

Sorting

Jun 21, 2007

I have a sheet with fixed number of rows but variable number of columns. I have to sort this sheet on the basis of column A starting A2. i am using the following code

Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlToRight).End(xlDown)).Select

Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("A2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes

But it does not sort properly. To illustrate, i have 10 rows, some 4 columns wide and some 5 columns wide. Since the first row is 5 columns wide , all the rows with 5 columns populated get sorted but the rest get left out.

Chronological Sorting

Feb 18, 2007

This is an example of what is being worked on:

(There are 500+ more lines like the ones below, in groups of approximately 17 lines per page of information.)


* C.B.A. Bank - 2nd reference to branch near Mike's store. (21/03/1956)
* Berwick exams results. (06/06/1877)
* Berwick exams (09/05/1877)
* Steps taken for erection of Berwick. (11/07/1874)
* Berwick tenders for work at home. (11/07/1877)
* W. was a storekeeper at Berwick. (25/07/1881)
* Berwick Brass. (27/06/1877)
* Commercial erected for son. (27/06/1878)

I need to do the folowing to it:
(not necessarily in the following order)

- Insert into Excel
- Remove brackets
- Sort chronologically
- Copy back into program I am using again, in same chronological order.

The desired outcome is to be able to throw into Excel all the lines and press a button, (possibly the Sort Ascending one) and have a chronological list of all entries.
