Split Number And Words From One Cell To Other

View 2 RepliesCell contains numbers & words. So how can we split numbers to 1 cell & words to other cell.
View 2 RepliesI have some data that is imported, it's about 25,000-30,000 characters and 2,300- 3,500 words, it all comes in as one cell, A1, if I do a text to column on it I will loose everything past column IV. Is there anyway a macro can take the data and put each word in a cell by its self starting in A2? The words a have a space between them.
I am suffering with split a long descriptions into 3 cells with criteria 1st cell not more than 30 characters, 2nd cell not more than characters and 3rd cell will locate the remaining characters there. I think this is quite easy if I use LEN/MID/RIGHT/LEFT formula. However, I wish the formula will smart enough to split word by word. refer to example below:-
"My lecturer replied, that i really did very bad in final, nothing's gonna change my plan."
If I use left(A1,30) formula, the result is "My lecturer replied, that i re"however, the word "really" is cut half way. I am finding the formula that split description to not more than 30 characters and won't cut my string and become incomplete word. Expected result should be 1st cell "My lecturer replied, that i", then "really did very bad in final," at 2nd cell.
How do I split numbers!
I have two problems/challenges!
Part I...
I got the answer 1987, and now I want Excel to take the numbers out and display...
1 in one box then i set + in the next, then 9 in the 3ed. box, next box +, then 8, then +, then 7 in the last so that i can have Excel make a SUM of it all to 25.
How do I split 1987 and put the numbers in different boxes?
Part II...
I want to make A=1 B=2... all the way up to 9, then start over again with J=1 K=2... up to 9 again and then over again.
So that if I write my name it comes out as a value of 14 (Odd = O=6 D=4 D=4 =14)
(AJSØ=1 BKTÅ=2 CLU=3 DMV=4 ENW=5 FOX=6 GPY=7 HQZ=8 IRÆ=9, It's the Norwegian alphabet, that's why there are some extra letters)
So how do I set up my Excel so that is ANY name is typed in I can get it out into a number from the values assign?
I have a excel sheet that contains about 8000 entries... I need to create a macro to help me. my file is like this:
123
RT4
eliott.billy
mark.garth
elena.david
I would like to split first name and last name. All the ligne that contains "." split it in 2. Example: eliott.billy will become eliott (column A) billy (column B)
I can not get this to work:
Code:
Sub SplitApart()
Dim data As String
data = Sheets(1).Cells(20, 1).Text
For Each EachSplit in Split(data)
n = n + 1
Sheets(1).Cells(20, n + 1) = EachSplit
Next
End Sub
Error code when Debugging on "Split":
"Wrong Number of arguments or invalid property assignment"
I am trying to parse a formatted text file. I am using the SPLIT function as
arr() = split(cline," ")
where cline is an input line. if the line input(cline) has multiple spaces between two words, how would it split that.
Eg :
abcd defg fefdcs fasdfasdsa
would the output of above be
arr(0) = abcd
arr(1) = defg
arr(2) = fefdcs
arr(3) = fasdfasdsa
i have wordlists which i would like to enhance through texts. For that purpose i need a macro which reads a text and splitts it into words and put the words into three columns. Lets assume the column where the words are supposed to be put is columns A,C and E. The column A should contain single words containing no spaces from Text, column C should contain compound words which have one space between them and in column E those compounds which have two spaces. Now i will put my existing wordlist in column G before i start splitting texts. The macro should put only those words from text into column A,C and E which dont already exist in columns A,B,C,D,E,F and G. In Column B i will place the corrected or checked words from column A. In column D i will type the corrections and checked versions of those compunds existing in column C. And the column F will contain the compound words which are corrected and checked from Column E.
Column A--> single words splitted from text through macro (containing no spaces)
Column B--> corrected and checked versions of words from column A through user
Column C--> compound words containing one space splitted from text through macro (for example:"etwas möchten" or "do something")
Column D-->corrected version of C through user
Column E-->compound words containing two space splitted from text through macro (for example:"sich uerberzeugen lassen" or "down in dumps")
Column F-->corrected E
Column G--> existing dictionary wordlist through user
Signes like ".", ":",";", "/" or quotation signe itself should be seen as seperator. And the words or compounds splitted from the text should not contain these signs.
The text will be put in another sheet in the same excel file. Lets call that sheet "text". The macro should search for words through whole sheet ignoring empty cells or columns.
None of the columns should be filtered or ordered. The columns shound not be deleted as well. That way the user wont have to correct the same word each time cus the corrected as well as the original words will be there.
A thread with similar purpose was made sent by AdamDay as well, where rylo has posted a good solution already.
I have huge columns of data that can only be 30 characters long. I want to use a formula to split the column into two. The original column will have a character limit of 30, and should not cut words in half. If the Length will be more than 30 while including the entire last word of the cell, that word should be the first displayed in adjacent cell in the 2nd column.
The 2nd column can be any length.
I usually use a Text to Columns method, but dont know how to make it not cut off the words.
I want to sort on number of words, i.e. if a cell contains 1 or 2 words etc, with the cells containing 1 word coming first then cells containing 2 words. Also, if possible, first the cells with fewer characters.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am making a content database and need to count the number of words in each cell...
I know you can count them with
=IF(LEN(TRIM(A2))=0,0,LEN(TRIM(A2))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A2,â â,ââ))+1)
but the the cells have line breaks so this formula won't work
I've understood that since there is a space before the new line, the formula will not recognise the space and therefore not recognise a new word.
This formula counts the number of spaces between words in a cell:

These names are in Column A. I want to split the first and last name into Column A and Column B of my spreadsheet. I Usually copy row 1 to a txt file then import with "space" as my delimiter. I basically want an automated method of doing this.
How to recreate the formulas used in my old database. One important factor is that:
In the old database, once you type in a word, it associates it to a number, and also adds that number in a further row. how do i do this?.
EXAMPLE:
- i have the word "sitter" that = 10.25$. If i enter "sitter" in column F, it enters 10.25$ in column M.
- Likewise, i can also have the word "private" that = 13.50$. If i enter "private" in column F, it enters 13.50$ in column M.
I'm trying to display a value both numerical and also in english (e.g display both 200 and two hundred, 259 and two hundred and fifty-nine and so on.)

I want it to also count the work WL
So basically want it to count WO & WL
=COUNTIF(M3:JS3,"wo")
i have a column of numbers. every so often in the column, there is the word 'start'. the amount of numbers between each 'start' varies, but i would like to put a 1 or a 0 in the column next to each number. i would like the second highest ranking number to get a 1 and all the others to get a 0.
if the first and second numbers between two starts are equal, then i would like all numbers between the 'start' to get a 0.
for example:
start
12 0
23 0
45 0
34 1
start
23 0
34 0
45 0
56 1
68 0
45 0
34 0

start

Can a vba macro be provided for splitting a number into digits? The number will be in Sheet 1 but splitted number will be on sheet 2. Splitting of numbers means a number entered into a cell will be splitted into different column/cells with one digit per cell.

I'm trying to return only the following portion of the text from a large list.
So, I want to have just the following phrase appear in a column:
Original
AAM UNIT AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND 13 $77,666,423 $1,132,491
To
AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND
Original
AAM UNIT AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND 13 $77,666,423 $1,132,491
To
AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND
Original
FIRST TRUST UNIT FT HIGH DIV EQUITY 15 $13,140,862 $301,295
To
FT HIGH DIV EQUITY
So, I essentially, want any words that appear between "Unit" and the first number that appears before the $ sign (in this case 13 and 15 respectively, but the numbers can be anything - "Unit" stays the same down the list).
I am looking for a solution to split text from numbers.I have found a couple examples on the web but I cannot get the examples to work with the correct syntax to function.

I am trying to split a cell into column by number. e.g. KOPAS LIMITED 30 ST CLAIR AVE W SUITE 1111 TORONTO ON
to
KOPAS LIMITED(new column)30 ST CLAIR AVE W SUITE(new column)1111 TORONTO ON. The numbers are random. My list is of 27000 rows long.
I am trying to split names across columns. The problem is that some names
spilt into 3 columns (first, middle, last), and others split across 5 or 6
(extra names, etc.)
Is there a way to specify split, using SPACE as a delimiter, but only split
on the first TWO spaces, then leave the rest alone?
