Text Functions To Add X Character In Between Sentences
Apr 6, 2014
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
From: 01 - It's A Long Way To The Top.mp3 >>>>>>>>>> To: 01It's A Long Way To The Top.mp3

inserting a percentage value from two cells into a sentences in excel.
A1 = 822,394,133 (CashReceived)
A2 = 126,103,052 (ARReceived)
Here's my formula: =”Organization represented approximately "&TEXT(ARReceived/CashReceived,”0%”)&" of the cash receipts.”
The TEXT function not working on the division formula. I tried the CONCATENATE, not working either.

The idea is try to search the words from Column C in Column A and if some key is found, show value from Column C (As a simple Vlookup but column A contains sentences):
A B C D
This is a test test 1
This is a tst excel 2
test case 3 tst 3
case for excel
test 4
tst nº 5
Excel1.JPG
And expected result should be: (column B, contains the formula):
A B C D
This is a test 1 test 1
This is a tst 3 excel 2
test case 3 1 tst 3
case for excel 2
test 4 1
tst nº 5 3
Excel2.JPG
The idea is not to use. Column C could have more of 1000 entries.

I'm trying to write a macro that will take 5 articles that I have written and separate the sentences out....
So what I need to happen is I take the articles and pop them into excel, then the macro will pick the first sentence of the first article, then the first sentence of the second article, then the first sentence of the third article....and basically repeat this for all the sentences in all the articles also while adding a "|" in between the sentences and adding a starting "{" and an ending "}" for each of the first sentences, second sentences and so on.....
I don't know that I'm making any sence here so here is a very small example of what I need to happen....
Article 1 Paragraph 1: I like blue. I like Green. I like Purple.
Article 1 Paragraph 2: I like flowers. I like dasies. I like tulips.
Article 2 Paragraph 1: I like football. I like basketball. I like soccer.
Article 2 Paragraph 2: I like food. I like wine. I like beer.
Article 3 Paragraph 1: The sky is blue. The sky is dark. The sky is night.
Article 3 Paragraph 2: I love stars. The moon is big. The moon is full.
So each of articles would need to be placed in separate sheets I'm guessing?
Below is what I need the text to look like when the macro has finished.....
Spun Article Paragraph 1:
{I like blue.|I like football.|The sky is blue.}{I like Green.|I like basketball.|The sky is dark.}{I like Purple.|I like soccer.|The sky is night.}
Spun Article Paragraph 2:
{I like flowers.|I like food.|I love stars.}{I like dasies.|I like wine.|The moon is big.}{I like tulips.|I like beer.|The moon is full.}
I hope this all makes sense.....
I already set this up using the record macro feature of excel and it works ok but I end up having to do a lot of editing because it will put to many brackets in or not enough so I was hoping for some advise or possibly some code example that could get me headed in the right direction....

i need some macro code to split a sentences become 2 string/text, like this below :
assuming start data in col.a
sample raw (col.a)
after macro (splitting 2 text)
The Internet and media are closely controlled in China

I need to find a formula that will allow me to format an upperase sentance to sentance format.
I.E. "UPPERCASE SENTENCES SHOULD NO BE FORMATED USING THE ' PROPER' FORMULA."
I need the sentace to format like this:
"Uppercase sentences should no be formated using the 'proper' formula."
and not like this:
"Uppercase Sentences Should No Be Formated Using The 'Proper' Formula."

=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 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.

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 have a cell in my worksheet with a fully qualified filename like 'D:abcDefGHIJklxyz123.app
I would like to extract only the xyz123.app. Obviously, the number of characters is going to vary based on the filename. The find and search functions appear to locate the cell but not the substring in the text. The right and left appear to work based on number of characters and in my case these are varying. Also, there does not appear to be any function that can do a search a string from right to left.

The following code reads text one character at a time, and each character is determined either to be a blank space or to be any other character. If it's determined to be any other character, then the character is added to the active cell. If it's determined to be a blank space, then the active cell becomes the cell one column over. The idea is to have different words written in columns next to each other.
The sample text file I'm reading from reads: "text file". The file has only those two words. One space between them. No space before the first word, and no space after the second word. The following code compiles and runs. BUT the result is that the word "text" is in column k, not A. And the word "file" is in column J, not b.

I have a list of over 300+ email addresses. If there is a way that I could pull out the ".com" (Find & Replace: Which is not working in any format, Text, Custom, General.) then pull out the text from the right to left until I get to the "@" into another cell and drag that down that would make it so much easier. Is there a formula that will pull data and then stop at a CHAR code? @ =CHAR(64) These email addresses are all different lengths. (personal to corporate email addresses.)
Example: moe10134@hotmail.com
Looking for something like this: Replace ".com", =LEFT(9) or whatever will take out the "moe10134@" and the ".com" leaving only hotmail.

I have a column list that I need to seperate. The Text has both a title and location separated by an = sign. The cells look like this...
BlahBlahBlah = Location1
I would like to take the text after the = sign and place it in the next column so that all that is in it is...
Location1
The Location varies so the RIGHT function won't work.

You know how you can combine different cells and concatenate their values? Can you reverse that? For Example, I have this value "Yambao, Mikhail P." and I want to break them apart so I can use "Yambao" as a reference value to fill up other information concerning that name.

Cell B23:687968307=ISTEXT(MID(RIGHT(B23,3),1,1))TRUE
Cell B24:C8796B07=ISTEXT(MID(RIGHT(B24,3),1,1))TRUE
I'm trying to test whether the third last character (3 and B) is a text or not.
As you can see, the reslts are both TRUE, but I'm expecting to see that the first one should be FALSE, as '3' is a number right?
Likewise, if I replace the formula with ISNUMBER instead of ISTEXT, the results are both FALSE, but shouldn't the first one be TRUE, again, because the '3' is a number?
Have I missed something in the formula, or is there a better way of expressing this formula?

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 need to extract the text located before last specified character () From C:PicturesPersonalChristmasDSC_00001.jpg ----> C:PicturesPersonalChristmas
I found a nice formula in another thread but that one returns the text located after the last "". The formula is =RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND("@",SUBSTITUTE(A1,"","@",LEN(A1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"","")))))

1) In any cell, I would like to remove "Area#xxxxxxxxx" (where x are random numbers).
Example : "INFO Log - [sys] Area#541185471Character#46545"
2) I would like to remove x characters before a word.
Example : 2013-08-28.txt@INFO
I would need to remove 14 characters before the character "@".
I tried to play with the LEN and RIGHT/LEFT formula but so far, I can't get it to work... The idea is to parse some text and remove the part in red (I was thinking about using SUBSTITUTE).

Dim sFName As String ' Path and name of text file
Dim iFNumber As Integer ' File Number
sFName = "c: est.html"
'Get an unused file number
iFNumber = FreeFile
'Create new file or overwrite existing file
Open sFName For Output As #iFNumber
'Write data to file....
How do I remove those first and last two marks (a double quote on each side + square mark from the end)? Do I use somehow wrong data types or wrong printing methods?
