Splitting Text Using MID, RIGHT Functions
Jan 22, 2007
I have some samples below and I need to split them up.
CritValsMtrx(1, 1) = 8850216
CritValsMtrx(1, 2) = 10
CritValsMtrx(2, 1) = 8850832
CritValsMtrx(2, 2) = 5
The MID function to split the text as below and it works.
MID(A1,1,FIND(" (",A1,1)-1) returns "CritValMtrx"
I have tried the RIGHT function to split the text to have the followings but it didn't work RIGHT(A1,1,FIND(",",A1,1)-1).
"1)8850216"
"2) = 10"
"1) = 8850832"
"2) = 5"
In a nut shell, all I need is the text from the comma to the end of the string.

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))

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

I'm trying to break up text in excel based on certain criteria and would prefer using a formula.
Criteria one: Must be 35 characters or less in length
Criteria two: Must include full words
So for example:
Cell A1: Sally bought a new purse
End Result:
Cell A1: Sally bought a new purse
Cell B1: Sally bought a (assume 35 characters)
Cell C1: new purse (assume 35 characters)
As mentioned earlier the only caveot is that it cannot break individual words IE: "Sally bought a ne"

I'm having trouble splitting some data.
I have account codes like 1201.170170 that I must split into two cells containing 1201 and 170170
When I use "left" and "right" functions, it cuts off the zero on the far right. Assuming base data in cell F2...
=Right(f2,6) returns .17017 rather than the intended 170170
I've tried formatting the cells as text, but that doesn't seem to work either.

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 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 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...
Attached is a sample file with before and after result

=If(isError(find("-";a1));mid(a1;3;9);mid(left(a1;search("-";a1)-1);3;9))
where: a1=AN03048-12
and its result I wanted is the following: 03048 (great! )
But... what if I'd have ANN03048-12?
Then the result would be N03048...
How can I obtain only 03048 or whatever (but only numbers) avoiding previous letters? How can I only pick numbers without letters starting from the left beginning of the record? I'd like to get only numbers before the "-" symbol. I think I should add a function before or instead of the "3" number (which I highlighted in red) in the second mid() function

I have thousands of track titles into my music library that requires some organization. In this case below, I need to add a "" character to split the track number from its title. So, the problem remains at the lack of pattern in the text and the only reference it the beginning of the song title (but it also can begin with a text or a number).Text.jpg

Once again I return to the brilliant ones on this board. I read the Excel help page for "Split text among columns by using functions". But my parsing task is more advanced than what I could gather from this function.
Here is the contents of cell A1 to be parsed:
Pack type,(make selection),Pack A[=4.95],Pack B[=5.95],Pack C[=7.95]
I need to extract 4.95 into cell A2, 5.95 into A3 and 7.95 into A4. How
Oh also, I have many variations of that example, and want your solution to work for the variations. So here is another actual cell that I have to be parsed:
Qty. discount,(Make Selection),1[=18.95],2 to 4[=17.95],5+[=16.95]
So, each extracted value will always be preceded by = and followed by ]

I'm putting together a table which shows monthly costs versus Total costs. Is there a way I could use if two choose between two option dependent on the value of cell A1.
Example
A1 = "Totals", multiply Subtotal in A13 by 12.
A1 = anyother value multiply by 1.
Something like:-
=if(a1="totals",(a13*12), =if(a1<>""sum(a13*1)

when writing user-define functions in VBA, how do you set up the help on function arguments, so that they appear in the dialog box for the user to enter the correct argument values?
(For example, in the VBA function ACOS, yoh have to enter "Number", and the dialog box explains: "Number is the cosine of the angle you want and must be from -1 to 1." I want to do the same with my own functions).

I am trying to extract values from a text. I used macro to solve the problem. I was able to extract the numbers however i am trying not to extract all of the numbers in text. For example as you can see below, i am trying to get only 22.99 The only unique thing here can be $ sign i believe. I need to put a criteria that selects the number right after $ sign and extracts 5-6 decimals after that.
**work lamp/desk light led;orion8879 final price: $22.99 (store)**
this is the text in a cell and i only need 22.99 not 8879)

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 aware of the following topic in the VBA Help file:
"Using Microsoft Excel Worksheet Functions in Visual Basic
You can use most Microsoft Excel worksheet functions in your Visual Basic statements. To see a list of the worksheet functions you can use, see List of Worksheet Functions Available to Visual Basic.
Note Some worksheet functions aren’t useful in Visual Basic. For example, the Concatenate function isn’t needed because in Visual Basic you can use the & operator to join multiple text values."
And I'm aware of how to call Excel funcitons from within VBA; e.g., answer = Application.WorksheetFunction.Min(myRange)
However, not only are some Excel functions not useful; the fact is they cannot be used because VBA has a native function that does exactly the same thing and you have to use that native VBA function to achieve your goal. It is these overlapping functions that I am especially interested in. I want to know what I should use directly in VBA and what I need to go to Excel for.

If I have a varying number of figures(say between 4 and 10) which I want the average of the first half of the set and an average of the second half, is there a function which I can use to calculate this? ie if there is 8 numbers in total then I need the average of the first four and last four... but if there is ten figures total then I need the average of the first five and last five.

If I have a string which contains 3 words, is there an easy way of separating out the consonants into one string and the vowels into another (spaces should be ignored)?
The only way I can think of doing it is to go through the string item by item and comparing the letters to a list of vowels and using that to do the separation.

I have a To-do list of tasks in column A.
I want to split it up into assignments for different days of the week. I've labeled columns B thru F as Monday thru Friday and I want to split the list into blocks for those days.
Right now I have 54 items and I want my block size to be 12 items, which gives me 4 blocks of 12 and 1 block of 6 - can I make Excel do the splits for me?

The line below was originally a merged cell. I need to have the customer ID, Customer name, City, State and zip in seperate lines. I tried using the text to column, but the problem is some companies have a comma after their name to show if it is an llc or inc etc. What happens is the companies that do not have inc etc- it works just fine, however the ones that do have inc etc because there is another comma- it moves everything over one column. In the city column it says inc and in the state it has the city etc. Is there an easy way to make this work?

I have a spreadsheet I'm designing which requires me to take a series of numbers and return them lowest to highest. That's the easy bit.
The problem is where and how these numbers are displayed. They are not listed easily in two columns with the numbers in one column and someone's name against each one, but rather in four columns mapping out the odds and evens.
For example
1 Bob 2 Keith
3 Linda 4 Martin
Now obviously it'd be easiest if I could just re-format things into two columns, but that's not an option. However I'm finding myself a bit stuck when it comes to using an array in a formula.
I still want to return the names next to number, but I'm not sure how to have what's effectively a multiple array (or search two arrays at the same time). I'm looking to search the cells A1:A2 and C1:C2 in the example above, but not the cells B1:B2.
I just need to take the numbers in those cells A1:A2 and C1:C2 and list them in order highest to lowest.
