I'm trying to figure out how to insert the delta symbol into a header using VBA. The symbol code is 0394. My line of code is the following but it is giving me a weird "D"-like symbol. Any thoughts on how to correct this?
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.
Col A has a list, mixture of letters and numbers. By default excel sorts the numbers in order and then the letters. How do I display the letters A-Z first and then the numbers?!
Does anybody have a formula to use to auto enter an alphabet? With this formula I would like the last letter in the alphabet Z to be followed by AA, AB, etc. If I delete row 5 (letter E) I would need the letters to auto generate in order.
I purchased the book from Mr.Excel and got it last week called VBA and Macros for Microsoft Excel. I can't seem to find the code for macros to search through the cells and then either change the cell colour to highlight the cells that contains an alphabetical character. I am trying to remove all the characters in the cells so only the numbers are left over.
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?
The =TRIM and =MID formulas that I saw in another thread both seem to convert the text, but they also leave the comma at the end.
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.
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.
I am trying to categorize a list of words based on the first letter.
For example:
[Code] ......
I want to see if the letter 'D' in 'Data' occurs in a range from A-G, if so display "A-G" in cell B, else if the first letter occurs from H-M, display H-N in cell B else if the first letter occurs from N-R, display N-R in cell B else display S-Z in cell B.
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? .......
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:
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..
how to create the database and the resulting Pivot Table. My Sales Database includes the Sales $ and GP$ for each line. In the Pivot Table I've managed to create a calculated field for GP %, no problem.
i have also managed to figure out how to express each Row as a % of the Pivot Total, also very easy.
What I need to know is how can I sort my Pivot Table High to Low using these calculated fields?
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........................
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
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.
(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.
