Special Sign Removal
May 27, 2009
I got three columns in excel. Column A is a list of items, so is column C. Column B displays the similarity in the 2 lists.
I use the following command =IF(ISERROR(MATCH(A1,$C$1:$C$265,0)),"",A1).
SO:
A B C
Cat Fish
Dog Dog Roll
Bull Carpet
Apple Dog
But what I want to do is the following:
If I have "D-og 12 2-3" in column A and say "do g 1 22/3" in column C, I want it to be displayed in column B. To do that I need to decapitalise and remove all the special symbols such as space, ), (, *, &, ^, %, $, #, @,! etc.
So I get dog1223 in column B since they are the same.

I'm trying to solve a strange problem in a piece of code.
I have a variable that is define as Double called STD. When i try to insert that variable in a formula the decimal sign (for me a comma "," because I'm Portuguese) gets converted to ";" (which is for me the separation sign for the expressions in excel formulas. ex: AND(A1>0;B1>0)=TRUE). The code is:

In a formula, what effect does putting a plus sign after an equals sign? e.g.
=+((1+B8)^12)-1. I orginally assumed that it made sure that result the would always be positive but I was wrong.

I have cells where the formual is this: =D17/SUM(D17:E17). The result is always going to be a three-digit decimal, less than 1. .546 .345 .678 etc. Excel, of course, places a zero in the front: 0.546 0.345 etc. Is there a way to remove this?

I have about 80K (80 thousands) entries.Each entry starts with #000. I want to remove "#" sign and zeros as well.I had used "LEFT " function but problem is that some numbers have 3 zeros in the start and some have have 4 or 2 or one zero. I tried to do it manually but it proved a gigantic task and been unable to complete it.
The few examples of entries are as under.
#0001234
#000001897
#034567
#00671234

Assume cell A1 contains a set of words. If cell B1 contained the following formula, the contents of cell A1 will be shown in B1, minus the last word.
=If(ISNUMBER( FIND(" ",A1)),LEFT(A1, LOOKUP(32768,FIND(" ",A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(A1)))))),A1)
However, the space or gap before the word that has been removed will be present in cell B1.
eg. If A1 = "how are you", then B1 will = "how are ".
I need this space to be removed too.
ie. B1 = "how are"

I have received an excel spreadsheet that only has 23 columns. The sheet is not protected, the columns are not hidden, the columns are not shrunk to .01 millimetres, the columns are quite simply not there. How is this possible to do? Columns displayed are a through to W. If I delete a column the columns display only a through to v.

I have a spreadsheet that contains certain formulas based on constants stored in another sheet. I have created this formula now which goes like this
=IF(C3=Staff_Profile!$C$5,IF(Staff_Profile!$C$2="Expat",2000," "))
The above formula work on two conditions :
1) the staff has joined in a particular month
AND
2) the staff profile is "Expat"
If both conditions are satisfied then the formula applies 2000 $ recruitment charges , else it is 0 (zero)
While it returns 2000 as true value where it is required, for rest of the cells it returns value "FALSE", which I dont want to see. I need to see 0 (ZERO). I am confused , as to how this can be achieved.

I have some password protected excel worksheets that required editing as they are from earlier versions, an earlier time and all need to be updated. This would be fine if it was myself who actually made the worksheets, but the person who did retired a couple of years ago and has dropped off the map (no contact details etc).
I know how to remove passwords, when I was the one who set them. The big problem here is, they are all macro enabled and for some reason the free down load password removal applications do not unlock worksheets that are macro enabled.

I need a macro, preferably a "sub" that will search a long text input and when it finds the first instance of the letters "GSH" in that order removing all previous text before it. The amount of text characters, letters, and order before the gsh will vary.
For example:
FGHYTIUGSHIYKIOLHY --> GSHIYKIOLHY

I'm creating some workbooks from PDF files. After converting, some of the
values in column A get placed into column B along w/it's values. Column A should have only a 6 digit number. Column B may have a combination of numbers and letters, but more use of letters.
I'm trying to create a formula for that will remove the 6 digit number at the front of my text values if it is present in column b. If it is not, than the column should remain the same. Is there a way to say remove first six values
from left if values are numbers? The results should out put to sheet 2.

This is an continuation to some earlier formulations to place value correctly in cells. It started for me here: http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...ell-value.html
Now, I've come across another situaton. If there is a value of any combination of numerals and text "X" specifically as: 1x,21x,100x,1001x,10230x, I'd like to have the x removed. The resultant will be in column D of sheet FormulaOut. See attachment as this will be building on the following formula:

what is wrong witht his code?
If Sheets("Workings").Cells(ExceptionCount, ColumnCount + 3).Value = 1 Then
Sheets("Allocations").Range(.Cells(ABIndex + 5 + week, (ColumnCount * 7) - 5), .Cells(ABIndex + 5 + week, ColumnCount * 7)).Value = ""
Else
End If
I know the If statement is working, but for some reason I can't fathom the line that removes the cell contents does nothing. I have tried ending with .ClearContents rather than .Value but that doesn't work either.

I have a worksheet with several columns of data. In Col B are part numbers, in column D are dates. I wish to search through the data and remove all lines with duplicate cells in column B EXCEPT the line which has the latest date in colum D. I should then be left with a sheet that has no duplicate cells in column B and the latest date in column D.

I have several Excel files with longitude values in column A, latitude in B, and data in columns C to DH. There is a lot of data in each file, so I was wondering if someone would be able to design a macro to achieve the following: I want any row containing zeros through column C to DA (not through to DH) to be deleted (deletion of the whole row, including DB to DH) - and the row beneath to be shifted up so no blank rows remain.
However, there are 16 instances where the row contains legitimate zeros and should be preserved in the dataset. These are at the following coordinates, where longitude (column A) is listed first, with latitude (B) second.
6.75, 27.75
8.25, 27.75
23.25, 27.75
24.75, 27.75
-2.25, 26.25
-0.75, 26.25
0.75, 26.25
2.25, 26.25
14.25, 26.25
-5.25, 24.75
-3.75, 24.75
-2.25, 24.75
15.75, 24.75
17.25, 24.75
9.75, 23.25
14.25, 21.75
So just to clarify, please could someone create a macro which deletes a row with zeros present from C to DA and shifts up the row beneath, except in the instances listed above.

Below is part of my recorder macro for removing subtotal on a specific field:
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("PRODUCT MANAGER"). _
Subtotals = Array(False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False)
I am new to coding in a pivot. I hope the no.of "False" depends on no.of "PRODUCT MANAGER" (There are 12 PRODUCT MANAGERs)
But the problem is the no.of PRODUCT MANAGERs vary with data.
So i am stuck on how i can input correct no.of "False" (here 12) inside the array part.
