I have some data that is both text and numbers in the same cell. I would like to split the the data so that the text is in one column and the numbers are in another column.
The numbers are all a fixed length (15 chars) so I know that I can use the following formula = RIGHT(A1,15)
However I am not quite sure how to split the text as the length can vary as as well as the number of words in the string.
For example A1 is 1 word with 7 characters but A2 is 2 words, 14 characters long inc space.
A1 Goodwin 000710280740120
A2 Gillette Ridge 000715058510122
B1 Goodwin
C1 000710280740120
B2 Gillette Ridge
C2 000715058510122
I have a text file with rows and columns of numbers ranging from 1-4 digits that I'd like to import/copy into Excel with each number being in its own cell. But whenever I copy/try to import, Excel splits all of the 3-4 digit numbers up into single digit numbers. The text file has 10,000+ columns (each number occupies two columns so I have half of that amount in numbers) and 300+ lines.
Is the file simply too large for Excel to handle or is there a way I can do this?
I am using excel at the moment with a card playing program. using the excel sheet they provided the details of what cards are dealt are exported to the worksheet and there is a simple table like so
Player Cards
............................................................
Player 1/ 24, 27, 16
Player2/ 1, 5
The information is fed through one number at a time as the cards are dealt for a total of three rounds sometimes it is only two rounds and are delimited by a comma all in the same column. I would like if possible to have these numbers appear in separate columns. that is
Card 1 / Cards 2 / Card 3
Player 1
Player 2
IS this possible. briefly i want this to happen so I can use the Vlookup function as the numbers that come through each stand for a card value but using Vlookup only the first number works and the following return an NA value as it is impossible as far as I know to have every possible combination represented in a table . If there is a way of tweaking Vlookup so it recognises the comma delimiter and in the vlookup column it will show all converted numbers then i'm all ears otherwise any help on how to split would be much appreciated. Quickly I did try using the text to columns function when i did this however in the new destination it showed only the first number and discontinued showing the others in the original as well. Additionally in this function the 'preview of selected data' does not show selected data but some sort of link =programme_name_card_gamecard_1 somethig like that. Sorry for the long one.
I have a macro which imports data from a mainframe dump text file and performs 'Text to Columns' on the imported data so that formula in the spreadsheet can act on the data. The code works perfectly well when I use it, but if a different user logs on and performs exactly the same mainframe dump and import macro the Text to Columns action splits the raw data in a different way and the result is that the split renders the formulae useless.
I've experimented a little and for some reason it appears that the 'Field Info' parameters which are produced when the Text to Columns function is recorded in a macro differ between users even though the raw data is exactly the same.
FieldInfo:= _
Array(Array(0, 1), Array(18, 1), Array(35, 1), Array(56, 1), Array(70, 1), Array(88, 1), _
Array(102, 1))
Is there a formula or function that I can use that will allow me to split data like below into two separate cells?
In one cell, I have - Narre Warren Black 6.8-44 & in another cell - Pakenham Maroon 5.4-34 just as an example. (There are quite a number of cells like this) I would like the cell split to show - Narre Warren Black in one cell and then 6.8-44 in the next cell. The same is needed with the following cell - Pakenham Maroon in one cell and 5.4-34 in the next cell.
Because some have one space and some have 2 or 3 I can't use 'LEFT' and I can't use Text to Columns as far as I can see.
I want to split a cell with a formula and not use text to columns. I will have a cell a1 for example with 1d 4h 36m 34s in and want to have 4 formulas 1 in
a5
a6
a7
a8
.. so the result will be
1
4
36
34
I know you can split with left, mid and right but don't know how to do it with the desired results.
I have address that sits in one cell only and I need to separate into two or three columns (streetname, street number, streetletter).
Is this possible as the length of street text, numbers and letter differs all the time...

In spreadsheet attached, column F is populated with file names. I need VB script to import content of each respective file into corresponding cell in column E. I've got over 25k of records and the same amount of txt files that I need to insert into cells. I have found this script somewhere on the forums:
[Code] .....
But need to modify it to do something like this: read cell from column F > find file with corresponding name > Insert content of that text file into corresponding cell in column E > go to next row and do the same.

I am trying to select all cells in a range whos contents match the contents of a specific cell so I can group the respective rows of these cells. I did a forum search but I am not sure if I have found what I am looking to do. I am a very basic user of VB so keep answers as simple as possible.

i have a list of customer codes each seperated by a space. In the column next to them i have a percentage. (see attached file before tab). I would like to be able to split the cell of customer codes and transpose them so that there is one cell per customer code with the appropriate % applied (please see attached file after example tab).
At the minute a manual process is completed of sorting in length order, using the text to column function then copy paste and transpose, then copy the % in. Its quite manual process, is there an easier way?
Here's my number 20512202250
The first 4 digits are the shop #
The last 7 digits are the part #
I had to split the number to separate shop and part
I used LEFT(a2, LEN(a2)-7) for the shop which gave me 2051
I used REPLACE (a2,1,4,"") to get the 2202250 part number
My next column is an ISNUMBER formula
When I do an ISNUMBER to 2202250, it's coming back FALSE like it's showing it NOT to be a number.
How do I get the 2202250 to show up as a number?
If I change it manually, the ISNUMBER formula works correctly and reads it as a number.
how to create a formula to sum the top 10 numbers of column C only IF Column A contains cell reference D1, and Column B contains cell reference D2.
Column A is all text colors
Column B is all text vehicles
Column C is all numbers
Column D1 contains the word RED
Column D2 contains the word CAR
I have used two cells to do this when column A is RED, however i cant figure out how to add in a filter for Column B (D2 CAR).
1st column cell E1 contains: =LARGE((A:A=D1)*C:C,10)
2nd column cell F1 contains: =SUMIFS(C:C, C:C,">="&E1,B:B,"="&'Sales Summary'!D1)
formula thats easier or able to filter for the above?
I have a spreadsheet with a column of Longitude values like:
A
172828.383E
I want to somehow split the cell into new individual cells so it will be like this:
A B C

I need a macro which place chosen parts from one column into another column.
For example I have following text in column E:
Column E
Flugschneise {f}
ringsum
(total) im Arsch [vulg.]
mutterseelenallein
Geld und Gut
Pensum {n}
*chosen content not always at the end of a cell!
Now i need a macro which puts chosen content from Column E to Column F or Column G. For example I want that all “{f}s” should be deleted from column E and put into column E. Or I want all {n} to be deleted and placed into column F. Or I want all [vulg.] to be deleted from column E and put into column G. If column F or G already consist of text then the new text( {f} or {n} or [vulg.] ...) should be added to the existing text but separated through a separator like comma or semicolon …
It means that the macro is each time fed with information about what to delete from which column and where to put it. It would be cool if a simple msg box would ask for the needed information.
I need to organize some unorganized texts in my columns.Here is what I have in the column:
STARMERBRIEANA 134 CRICKLEWOOD AVE HENDERSON,NV 89002 CLARK Home - ( ) - Work - ( ) - Ext.
Here is what I need it to look like:
Column B = "134 CRICKLEWOOD AVE HENDERSON,NV"
Column C = "89002"
I have to separate text & numbers in different columns.
e.g. 349,910 American Capital Ltd. (a) 4,902,239
i want all 3 data in separate columns, there is a series of data like this wherein numbers are there both at begining & end & text in middle.
I want to do is take this kind of thing all from one column:
COLA
1 blah blue
green
13 black grey brown
and put it into two columns, one with only the numbers, and the other with only the text.
COLB
1
13
COL C
blah blue
green
black grey brown
Also, I want to be able to then take that data from COL B and C and have it raw so that I can edit it easily by simply selecting row3 in COLB and change it from 13 to 4 (or whatever.)
I have two columns in my excel sheet, the first column has the Second name, First Name and the second column has the Date of birth.
Now what I'm after is two columns really, the first column should show the Furst name Second Name (space in between with no Comma) and the Second column should show the First Initial from the first name, the first initial from the second name and then the date of birth.
I have a homework assignment where I have a list of companies with the products they have with one other company. The original company and their products are listed on the same row, with a dollar value assigned to the product. So Cell A1 has company name, cell B1 has product a, and Cell c1 has the amount they pay for that product. Is there a function I can use to split that one row into 3 separate rows, to show the company name 3 times and the product and dollar amount as it's own row, next to the company?

I'm in need to split 1 column (address details) into several columns (for ex. address, city, postcode, country) I can't use the "Text to Column" function as some address will split into 5 part, some split into 6/7/8. Is there any way I could do this automatically as there're a lot of entries in my spreadsheet. Example of the data need to be split attached.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to put something together on Excel.
1. In my first column(Let's call it "input"), there will be a variety of values from 1-10 which will appear in cells as 1,7,10 or 4,5,6,7 or any other similar variation. The quantity of numbers can vary and will always be comma delimited.
2. Following the first column are 10 additional columns. For simplicity, let's say they're labelled 1-10.
3. If 2,5,6,9 is present in the first cell, I want the number 1 in the columns labelled 2,5,6 and 9.
If 1,4 is present in the first cell, I want the number 1 in the columns labelled 1 and 4.
The input will only be in the first cell so I am hoping to find a way to automate the placement of 1's in the appropriate column depending on the input in the first column("input").
As a bonus, I'd like all cells not present in the first column to appear as a "0".
I have a field that contains rows of data, each made up of a Number followed by Text. The length of the numbers differ - sometimes 4 digits, sometimes 5 or 6. Similarly, the text differs by word-count. An example is
2546 Nags Head
75698 Dog & Duck
634 Crown
I want a way of dividing the numbers from the text (numbers in one column and text in another).
Standard 'Text to Columns' won't work: I can't use 'Fixed Width' due to the number-length varying, and I can't use 'Delimited' and [space] as it will then split all the text up word-for-word (concatenating them back will take ages as my list is 480 rows long).
I have thousands of lines of data that are of the following form:
Jackson, TN 9623 BCBS TN 98 UnitedHlthCare 2
Jacksonville, FL 3577 Aetna 47 BCBS FL 37
Knoxville, TN 3796 Cariten 44 John Deere 41
Lakeland-Winter Haven, FL 2165 UnitedHlthCare 31 Aetna 29
I need to separate these lines into columns such that, for example, the first line would be in 6 columns: (Jackson, TN) (9623) (BCBS TN) (98) (UnitedHlthCare) (2)
The delimiter does not work because some of there is no one character that always separates the text and the numbers. I've tried going through in word and typing something like '%' where I want to separate, but with thousands of lines of data that is extremely tedious.
Is there any formula I can use that would be capable of solving this?
I have text of varying length that I need to split up into three fields. I am using a vba code (kindly shown to me on a previous post) to split the first word, but in this particular macro I need to remove the last word. This is the code that I have at present which is displaying the first word.
Sub splitDescription()
Dim c As Range, t
For Each c In Range("e2:e" & Range("e" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
t = Split(c)
c.Offset(, 1) = t(0)
Next
End Sub
The data I am trying to split consists of descriptions of varying lengths and I need to remove the first word and the last word and keep the middle text. Below is an example
SUEDE ROUCHED TRIM COURT GOLD
LEATHER/PATEN METALLIC SNAKE COURT BLACK
SUEDE RIBBONED BOW PURPLE
