Spacing Multiple Variable Paragraphs In A Merged Cell
Jun 19, 2009
I am using excel as a base for formatting reports, and collating logical paragraphs, which I want to display in one massive merged cell on another worksheet.
The paragraphs are different for each report, and I do not wish to manually enter them in each time. I also want them to display as seperate paragraphs on the page, but in the same cell.
To throw a spanner in the works, the paragraphs are all of indeterminate length, otherwise, I could use different cells. If I combine them in the massive merged cell by using =cell1&cell2&cell3 then they will just appear merged as one whole huge paragraph. I want them to appear as separate paragraphs in the same big cell.

I have a sheet with a range of paragraphs of text from cell D2:R2.
How can I get it so that if I put an X in the column under the relevant paragraph, it will insert the paragraph of text into the spreadsheet.
For example. Text lies in cell D2. If I put an X in cell D7, I want the text in D2 to be inserted into C7.

I have a macro to copy a merged cell from one sheet and paste it to another as a merged cell. Basically, I want to copy it AS IT IS and paste it AS IT IS. My code is below.

What I am trying to do is to have the concatenated content of two different cells seperated into paragraps.
For example, if A1=Blue and B1=Red I want the content of C1 to look like
Blue
Red
I use =A1&B1 in C1, but I'm missing something to split them.

I maintain the data flow at my work. We send and receive the data using excel files with specific formatting that I then upload to the database. Each time I send or receive the excel file I must log them, this is what my code question refers to.
I use RDBMerge to merge all the contents of the 100 plus excel files into one worksheet. The first part of the macro cleans up the merge data for use in the log (i have attached an example of the clean data and finished log).
The blue shaded area of the "Raw_Data" is what the clean data looks like, the yellow column is what current macro records for each record.
As you can see by the example the Raw_Data is only two files LL_LLL_BOB_ToLLLLL_20121228_01 & LL_LLL_BOB_ToLLLLL_20121230_01, each with more that one record.
The log code in column "H" Is based on this criteria:
First Letter of the Unique ID in column "E" - O, M, or L
Program Type in Column "F" - U or R
1. O-U = U
2. O-R = RU
3. M-U = U2
4. M-R = R2U
5. L-R = R
You will note that Columns G-R of the "Log Sheet" correspond to the "Record Type" found in Column "G" of the "Raw_Data" sheet.
This is the area where my skill at using scripting dictionaries fails.
The results for the log list each file only once, but the log code for each corresponding "Record Type" in columns G-R of the "Log Sheet" must contain each unique instance of the code. In other words
if LL_LLL_BOB_ToLLLLL_20121228_01 contains an O-U with an "A" Record Type and an M-R with an "A" Record Type; then, on the log sheet there needs to be the codes "U/R2U" in the cell intersection of the LL_LLL_BOB_ToLLLLL_20121228_01 record row and "A" column (which is column "G")
So, If the File contains one of each code for each Record Type the corresponding cell must house one of each code separated by a "/" without any spaces. This means the cell value could no code, or one code and all the variations in between to all five codes. Also, for ease of human reading the log codes should be concatenated in the 1-5 order that I listed them in (U/RU/U2/R2U/R)
Here is my code so far.
VB:
Option Explicit
Sub test()
Dim dic As Object, a, i As Long, rng As Range, e, w, n As Long
Set dic = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")

From XL, I'm trying to search a summary document for a keyword, then copy the paragraph containing the keyword to another document.
I want to be able to do this for a variable amount of paragraphs. Currently, the following code finds the keyword in summary.doc (once) and then copies it to test.doc It's a start. I can't seem to find a way to select and copy the paragraph (even once).
The keyword is always on line1 and the paragraph is always 4 lines....

I am currently trying to import multiple 'long descriptions' onto Lightspeed product cards for display on an upcoming website. This is probably a very basic excel problem but I can't seem to find a simple solution online. Basically When I paste descriptions into a cell they break up into separate cells by line or paragraph break When I need them to stay together as one long description. Even if I have text qualifiers around the text they still only import one paragraph into lightspeed. Maybe that i am not saving it as the right file extension...

I'm looking to look up sheet name based on a date, then look the date up within that sheet which is a merged cell, then return the figure in the corresponding cell.
I have a sample worksheet to attach, just have to work out how to do it.!
In the sheet "Cashflow Summary" in cell E24, i want to lookup the sheet name based on the value in C22 (merged cell), then lookup the date in that sheet (6 August 2014), and return the value in cell y8.
The difficulty is with firstly the merged cells, but also performing the lookup over a number of different arrays, as the sheets for each month, have the months listed under each other in rows of 5 days at a time.

I have a spreadsheet, similar to the one attached, that monitors deliveries. The reasons for deliveries not being made on time are merged across to have one reason per delivery vehicle.
I am trying to count the number of times a reason occurs, but utilizing a COUNTIF function it will only count a merged cell as one count, rather than per each delivery.

I am trying to return the SUM of a variable cell across multiple worksheets... This 3D formula works
=SUM('March 2012:December 2013'!E27)
I wanted the formula on the next row to ref F27 then G27 etc... (which I can't just drag down) so thought I'd try to "assemble" the formula I wanted using the INDIRECT function...
I tried this formula which doesn't seem to work...
=SUM(INDIRECT("'"&E6&":"&E27&"'!E27"))
NOTE: the script in the INDIRECT brackets returns the text string... 'March 2012:December 2013'!E27
Can INDIRECT not handle multisheet references?

how to set a cells value into a variable, using .value, then set another cells value equal to that variable without using copy/paste
What I can't figure out is how to see the value of multiple cells to a variable and place them into another range of the same size using .value. It would be nice to free up the clipboard.

I need a macro that will create a sheet at the end of the workbook.
Sum data from a variable amount of sheets and display that data on the created sheet.
Here is a step by step:
Starting on sheet 5.
Column D has a variable amount of part numbers in it. These part numbers would be different between the ascending sheets.
Column T, U, V has an inputed number in it that would need added up across all duplicate part numbers in all the sheets.
(Note: The data would also need started on row 4. Everything above row 4 is headers)
Here is a small example:
D E T U V
13019090W Part A1
68705500 Part B1
64202900 Part C-11
59634600 Part D1
26005300W Part E1
I need the macro to start with sheet #5(starting on row 4). Check to see if there is data in column T, U or V. If there is, to create a new sheet at the end. And copy the entire line into that sheet (starting on row 4).
After that, to check every sheet after (excluding the newly created one, starting on row 4) for data in Column T, U and V. And then check for duplicates in Column D on the newly created sheet. If there is a duplicate to add/subtract that number in Column T, U and V to the SUM in column T, U and V in the newly created sheet. If there is no duplicate, to copy the entire line to the new sheet.
So that when finished. On the new sheet, you have the SUM of T, U and V for everything that has data in T, U or V for all of the previous sheets, plus the entire line of the first instance (excluding the first 4 sheets).

I Want users to be able to copy a reference number from a an external program into excel, this works well for single cells but the cell I want them to be able to paste the information into is a merged cell and keep getting the "Data on the clipboard is not the same size and shape blah blah error". What I can do to get this information to paste? Is there some VBA that can kinda trick the cell to believe its single or when pasting it unmerges and then remerges again?

The issue that I am having is with merged cell data. What I am trying to do is check the value of the merged cell against a selection from an array and place the value into a cell.
What apparently occurs is that if the row that I am on is an even number (being as my rows start on an odd number); the reference returns empty. I have tested to confirm that this only affects even numbered rows. My spread sheet has a 2 row merged cell in column 2, and the cell I am referencing from is on the second row of that merged cell.

I am working on an FMEA and have a slight issue.
I have a number of merged cells in Column B.
I have merged 30 rows of column B to one Failure mode let's say 'Gaps'.
In column C there are 30 individual items relating to gaps.
When I want to filter column B to look at Gaps, it only returns the first row of the merged cells. So instead of getting the entire merged cells as a result of my filter, I get 1 row.
I hope this is clear. My question is, is there a method of filtering so that the whole merged cell is returned?

I have alot of data with data and time in one column, and temperature in another. All my data is bunched together, i have temperature measurements every 3 minutes, 24 hours a day, for about a month... and then after that, i have temperature measurement 10 minutes a day, 24 hours a day for several months
I want to group my data by hour, so for my 3 minute measurements, 20 values make up one hour. And for my 10 minute measurements, 6 values make up one hour. I want to know if there is a way to space out my data so that it groups it/ spaces it out. So for the 3 minute values, it would list 20, then put say 3 blank rows, then 20 more values, then 3 blank rows etc.... and for the 10 minute values, it would be 6 values, then 3 blank rows, 6 values, then 3 blank rows etc...

How to add a watermark to the sheet on each tab. Now when the script is called it stops and give the following errors:
Run-time error '1004': cannot change part of a merged cell.
I searched for merged cells in the document and as far as the script is concerned there are none, other than maybe this new watermark.
So, does VBA or scripting think that a watermark is a merged cell?
Any workaround if it does think of it as being merged?
Here is the current script we are using:
