I have a list of items with a cell, however these are on seperate lines (using Alt+Ent) function. Example of entered text within the cell below:
_UN
_OD
_PN
_H
The beginning of each line will always start with an underscore ( _ ). The items within the list will either be 2 or 3 characters long (which includes the underscore).
The required output I'd like is (spaces used to indicate seperate cells):
_UN _OD _PN _H
I'm trying to use the 'Text to Column' function to solve my problem, however I haven't yet managed to get it to work. I've tried using the 'Fixed Width' function within this, however when I use this, it inserts an 'Enter' within the cell, which I don't want.
Does anyone else have a solution? Any help would be appreciated. Preferably I'd like this to be automatic using a formula, instead of me having to click the 'Text to Column' button each time.
(I'm using Excel 2007 if this makes any difference too)
I have a spredsheet with multiple Alpha Numeric codes in one cell. I would like to seperate the codes but instead of placing them in the adjacent columns, like the text to columns function does, I want them to go to the preceding rows.
Macro for text to columns function (if this is the best way to go).
Our work report exports customer subscriptions which we call "role name". Our customers subscriptions have a valid and start date, but our customers also can purchase multiple subscriptions and we need to separate this data in order to report by subscription.
Our export has an * after each subscription, the date is in square brackets and each subscription is separated by a semi column.
So for arguments sake, let's say we have the following subscriptions:
subscription a subscription B subscription C subscription D
if one customer has purchased four subscriptions on various dates, their exports may look like this:
I then use a text to columns function to separate by the * and the; I then am left with a column for the role, one for the start date and one for the expiry date.
The roles are in alphabetical order, but sometimes some manual sorting needs to be done to delete the roles I don’t need and keep the ones I do. For example someone could have subscribed to subscription B and not in A that means that the first column may not have all the roles I need, it may be in the second or third column depending on what other subscriptions they have.
So not sure if text to column is even the best way to go?
I am currently tracking online PPC keyword reports with Excel and need to know if there is a function that will find and match words and phrases and then add the columns that are queried for the matching words/phrases. I think an example is definately in order.
December PPC Keyword Clicks Cost Revenue large dogs 45 .18 $12.00 small dogs 35 .25 $15.00
January PPC Keyword Clicks Cost Revenue large dogs 12 .14 $8.25 small dogs 18 .18 $5.35
Now using the example above I need a function or maybe even a macro that will scan all "keywords" and find a match for each keyword each month, say large dogs, and then add the clicks, costs, and revenue columns and post them on a particular row or rows.
So when running the function it will find and match "large dogs" for each month, it will then add the clicks for all months with "large dogs" in it and then populate a column or row with the total along with the keyword "large dogs" next to it. Is there a function that will do this or maybe even a macro?
I want to use the text to columns function when the original cell has more then one line (lines are separated with Alt+Enter). Somehow Excel does only notice the first line.
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.
how to set one entire columns text to two different colors based on another columns values. So for example I have column A and B. Column A has two values called Internal and External. Column B is a title table so the entire column is just titles. We'll say it goes for 20 rows if you need a row count. What I am looking to do change the text in Column B to Red for External and Blue for Internal. I tried the conditional formatting and I just can't seem to find the right option.

As you will appreciate the text in the cells is of non standard lenght and the three pieces of information can be located virtually any where in the text
I am having a trouble in Excel sheet.My column A has a drop down list with text- possible, not possible, not required.Based on the text, i need to populate texts in columns B, C and D.
For example
Column A drop down selected is "possible" then B coulmn should automatically populate "1-3" C should populate with "3-5" D should be "5-7"
I'm having a problem with the IF statement. In THIS pic you can see how I have my columns set up. I want to add the F columns to a total, but only if column G is "n".
I have watched a bunch of tutorials about it, but I just cant seem to get the dang thing to work. Any advice on the formula I would need to write to make it work?
I am trying to write a micro code to split text which is copied into cell A1 into columns. I can do this fine by going to "data" the "text to Columns" and selecting the places i want to split the text (this is the same for every piece of data i copy in).
The macro works perfectly every time. the problem is that the spreadsheet is shared and i want to protect certain cells on the sheet, when i protect the sheet the recorded macro does not work as the "data", "text to columns" is not available in a protected workbook.
I was just wondering if someone could help me, so i can run a macro to split the text which also allows me to protect cells. In the "text to column" option the "fixed width" (column breaks) i choose are: 4, 25, 34 and 43.
I have a cell that has a comma separated value that is 354 fields long. As such, if I use the Text To Columns feature to split the data at each column, I lose several columns (because excel cannot have that many columns).
How can I break the data at the comma, but have it list in rows instead?
How I can apply an IF function for four or more columns. for example: if the value is the same in four or more cells, IF function can type OK, if not something else.
what I am doing is this : =IF(H2=I2=J2=K2=L2,"OK","Not Equal") but I always receive the value"not equal" even when the all cells have the same value. The cells values are found using formula so I did copy and paste value but I received the same result.
I have read through other similar topics and tried using the index and match function to lookup but been unable to make the formula work.
I am trying to use the lookup function to pull data from a table using criteria in two columns and one row. I have attached a spreadsheet for example.
I want to use criteria of Day (eg . 1), Total height (cm), and jar # (eg. 1). I inherited this table from a previous coworker and don't have time to organize the data better.
In the spreadsheet I want to return the value of 8.8 (highlighted in yellow). The criteria I want to use to lookup the value are highlighted in red.
I am need to setup an IF Function to cover several columns. I need the function to be able to look at Column A, B, C, and D and see if any are blank. If any of these is blank I need the function to give "Pending". If all of these columns have a Y then I need the function to give me "Completed".
I tried to write a function so that it would search for a word from Column C in Column B, and then when it found it, give me a a combined result of Column A and B. For instance. I lookup up C1 (Goja Apple) in the range of all of column B; the function finds it in B3 (Goja Apple); then it returns the combined result A3 and B3 (Ca23 Goja Apple). I tried the =lookup, but I think the first column you select must be in ascending order, and that wont work for me.
I'm looking to average the numbers contained within 5 different columns if the corresponding cell in a different column is blank.
Here's what I have currently (with column A being the conditional cells and D:H being what I'm looking to average)
=AVERAGEIF(A3:A26, "", D3:H26)
From what I understand, this function only allows me to average a single column. If this is in fact a limitation of excel and not just of my knowledge, is there a different way to calculate the average of D3:H26 when the corresponding cell in column A is blank?
I have a worksheet with 10000 plus entries in ten columns From K to T. I wish to have a macro with Concatenate function to merge certain Columns from these ten columns, in one column with help of input boxes which may ask inputs, about range (from and to ), and number of digits to concatenate in the required column. I use Excel 2003 XP in work but an example is 2007 attached.
I have worksheet A with cell AC2 to enter a team id# like 51922 for example. In Cell B3 I want it search sheet11 for the team name according to the number and put the team name in B3. Sheet11 has 11 columns the first one list the 613 team names, the remaining columns have #'s like the example giving for the teams. What formula would I need to perform this function?
This is a football game the other 10 columns represents 10 worlds with identical 613 teams to control in each world, but the teams have different #'s to identify the world, team, and coach.
and my goal is to have a TRUE or FALSE in the third column for the following criteria: TRUE if left column equals TRUE or if left column equals FALSE and right column equals TRUE. False if else........
This is the function I have now: =COUNTIFS(Sheet1!A:A,Sheet2!A2,(Sheet1!E:E),"*") and it works great, counting every cell with a value in column E.
When I make criteria range 3 another column (criteria also being"*") my numbers actually start going down. I think it might be averaging the two columns out or something but I just want it to count all the cells with values in it from multiple columns and give me a total count.
I have 4 columns total that I want to be able to get a total count from.
I have a spreadsheet that I am trying to automate, one of the tasks is to sum some columns namely columns O to T. Column B contains the exact number of entries in the columns O to T, therefore I thought that this would be a good counter. The Spreadsheet varies in number of entries every time. In this instance the rows are in total 200 inclusive a header row. ie r below is = to 200. I have tried to record a macro and from that I have tried to replace the pertinent values.
Sub Sel_Sum () Dim r As Integer Dim s As Integer Dim t As Integer Dim U As Integer Range("B1", Range("B65536").End(xlUp)).Select r = Selection.Rows.Count s = (r - 1) * -1 t = r + 1 U = -1 Range("O" & t, "T" & t).Select Selection.FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM(R" & [s] & "C:R" & [u] & "C)" 'fails here Selection.NumberFormat = "#,##0.00_ ;[Red]-#,##0.00 " End Sub
I have two colums of data with names in them, Column A and B. I want to see what names in column B also occur in column A and I want to put this function in column C. So for instance if I want to see if "John" is also in column A and if he is then I want column C to say yes beside Johns name in column B.
