Translation Of HTML Cell Data When Exporting As TEXT
May 2, 2006
I have a cell in which I have the following data (for example):
<a href="http://www.trucks.com">Ford Trucks</a>
I need to export the sheet as a tab delimited txt file for import into another program. When excel saves the file as .txt, it add extra data so that the cell is represented as:
"<a href=""http://www.trucks.com"">Ford Trucks</a>"
Note the set of two additional inverted commas. This extra data interferes with the parsing of the data in the other program. I've tried formatting the cells to "general" and "text", however, it does not seem to affect the txt output.

I'm using Microsoft Office 2003 and have tried everything I can think of to strip the formatting from data I exported into Excel from the internet. I've tried DATA / TEXT TO COLUMNS, Formatting, LEFT, RIGHT, exporting to NotePad and back again... nothing works?

I have 10 rows and 3 columns or words(data). What I am trying to do is export this data one row at a time so that I end up with 10 text files. Each row needs to be inserted into 3 variables within my text file. (Variable1,Variable2,Variable3) and then saved. Each saved text file needs to be named Variable1-Variable2-Variable3.txt. End result should have 10 text files that are named corrosponding to each row of data and each text file should also have the 3 variables replaced with the corrosponding row data.
Right now I have to manually rename the text file (Variable1-Variable2-Variable3.txt) and then manually open the text file and select EDIT-REPLACE and insert the data 3 times. I have to do this for many many text files and it is becoming monotinous.

I'll try to simplify what I'm trying to do without getting into too much details that might be considered irrelevant to my question.
1. A set of VBA procedures are run successfully, and the results are compiled on a single w/s "mySheet" in a single w/b "myBook".
2. I intend to repeat 1. above 1,000s of times (same w/b, same w/s).
3. Consider a single run. The results of interest on "mySheet" are confined to a range, say, A20:K40, named "myInpRange", with a 7-digit run identifier ID automatically generated and stored in cell F5, say, F5 = 1234567
4. I've successfuly performed the following tasks manually:
...a) copy range A20:K40 of "mySheet"
...b) Open a new MS Word document
...c) Paste Special as Unformatted Text
...d) Save the Word file for this run As: LL_1234567.inp (="LL_" & F5 & ".inp")
...e) Close the Word file.
...f) Repeat a) to e) above for the next run.
Q: How to code a VBA Excel macro to handle Excel & Word, run from a button on the w/s "mySheet", and to perform the tasks a) to e) above ??
In case you might wonder why I do have to go through this trouble. Well, my next set of programs are DOS-Applications, which only allow their redirected input data files to be as described above.

I've been doing this excel worksheet for work; even though I've never used excel macros or VBA before.(So if this is an easy question to answer don't laugh at me. :P) (I have worked with other programming languages though.) Anyway, using a VBA manual, I've done pretty well, until now. I'm trying to make a macro that when one clicks on the button it saves the file as a text tab delimited file, but giving it the name of whatever the user put into a specific cell. (And also without closing the excel file too, so they can add more if they have to) So I've gotten it now so that it saves with the correct name, but I am unsure about how to make it save as the text file I want. (At the moment it saves as an unreadable file) Any help would be great thanks.
Here is the ...

I have this export containing HTML content in each cell. I need to filter out a specific code from the links included in the HTML.
HTML Code:
<some HTML>
<a href="http://site.com/content/GE6053" class="button"><span>Text</span></a>
<a href="http://site.com/content/GE123" class="button"><span>Text</span></a>
<some HTML>
I need to get the string GE#### before each " class="button"> and copy it on a cell on the right. There are other links of this format [URL] ..... in the cell, but I am interested only the ones that have " class="button"> after it.
The length of the ID after GE can be 2, 3, 4 or 6 characters long. But I am ok with getting GE + 6 characters following it as that means I would get something like GE12" cl and I will delete the extra character by doing a find/replace.

I'm using excel 2003 and was wondering if I could insert html around the cell data in a faster way than cutting and pasting it. Here is an example of a column and what I would like to do.
aaaa
bbbb
cccc
dddd
Now I would like every cell to have HTML around it to be easily posted on a website. I would like the cells to now look like this.
<a href="www.url.com/aaaa"><img src="www.url.com/aaaa.jpg"></a>
<a href="www.url.com/bbbb"><img src="www.url.com/bbbb.jpg"></a>
<a href="www.url.com/cccc"><img src="www.url.com/cccc.jpg"></a>
<a href="www.url.com/dddd"><img src="www.url.com/dddd.jpg"></a>
I haven't dealt much with functions so I don't even know if this is possible.

Goal: I have data that was copied to my clipboard from the webpage source in a Chrome browser. I would like to get that data over to my excel worksheet and insert it starting at "A1".
Issue: All of the pasted data is ending up in ONLY cell "A1" when using VBA.
When I just click in cell "A1" and CTRL-V, the data gets spread across a lot of cells, which is what I am after.
Code:
'------------------------------------------
'Start The Process
'------------------------------------------
' Assigning clipboard data to string variable strClip
Dim MyData As DataObject
Dim strClip As String
Set MyData = New DataObject
MyData.GetFromClipboard

I have multiple rows within a worksheet and need them to automatically save into a separate txt file. Example:
I have a workbook with rows b-z. Instead of taking each of the rows and copying and pasting it into another separate excel file, then saving in a txt format, is there a way to automate this? So that the following will occur:
Column B 950 line is one file
Column C 950 lines is another
column D lines in another txt file.....etc
I have some code listed below, however, it reads the first column cell by cell. It does not group column by column grouping all data within that column as on txt file
Sub notebook_save()
Set wkbk = Workbooks.Add
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
RowCount = Cells(Cells.Rows.Count, "a").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To RowCount.......................

Is there a way to export Excel (Excel 2003) into a flat file that is comma separated and also includes text identifiers, specifically double quotes (" ") around each field in a row?
The Export Wizard in Access makes that a snap but we (more than just me) haven't been able to make it work out of Excel.

I've created a spreadsheet to create a text file which I can use to inport values into another device. Using CONCATENATE etc I end up with a range of cells (1 column / Many rows) that I can then MANUALLY highlight, choose copy, open the text file, paste in the contents and then save it. This works fine but as you can imagine I'd like to automate the proceedure by having excel create and save the text file for me.
From what I've seen on these forums most people are wanting CSV type files but not me. I've already got the cell contents pieced together it just needs writing to a text file, no delimiters, no quote marks, just exactly what's in the one cell on one line, it's just one column remember (H2:H1456).
I'm not bothered about appending data either, a hard coded overwrite of the text file is fine by me.
The actual file type I ultimately need is an .abk file, but like I say this is just a basic text file that's been renamed. Could Excel create this or must it have the .txt file extension?

After organizing my data I now need to export to a simple txt file. But I need to control to final format better then the simple "save as" allows. What I need is a simple list of in a single column, separated by a carriage return. I am working with a "small" list of addresses, and by small I mean 27,188.
Every format I try ends up with quotation marks and a strange box like symbol. What I have is a full name and 2 line address per field in .xlsx format. I also have the data separated into fields by line.
Is there any way to better control the output when exporting to a .txt file?

I have a Text ID Column and a Text Column. I need to save each row of the Text Column into its own individual text file on my C: Drive. The name of the file should be the the Text ID from the first column. I need this to work with different sample data, so the number of rows will vary. I also need this to be able to work with excel files that contain thousands of rows.

I am trying to create a simple translation tool for my product catalog, which is in Japanese, to English.
I have the Japanese and the English terms listed in a file (say, File A) in Col A and Col B which will keep increasing every week.
I want to create a macro which goes thru this list and replaces ALL the Japanese terms to English in "ALL THE SHEETS OF THE PRODUCT CATALOG" (say, File B) .
I have created a button in File A so that when I press this button, I browse my computer, select the file (product catalog) to be translated, replace all the Japanese terms to English terms in ALL THE SHEETS and saves it under a different filename.

I have 85 Html files that I open in excel. The files have a bunch of columns with numbers. Excel handles most of them properly, but if the number looks like a date, it is imported as a date (which it shouldn't be). For example if the number is 13-1, excel handles it fine, but if the number is 12-1, excel thinks it is a date and imports Dec-01. How do I get excel to import it as 12-1?

I have some code that loops through a bunch of text files, finding any that contain an href, and printing that entire line (if found) into excel. These text files are source code for a website. What I need to do, is within this line being pasted, is grab only a few things from within some tags such as the info between <title>This is the title</title> the tags and print it into a colum, I do not want the entire line, just certain things that are in the line. I have supplied the code that I currently have. I have it so that 'WholeLine' contains the entire line. Can I manipulate that with something like Cells (myR, 3).Value = WholeFile(?).
Sub CheckTextFilesForHREFs()
MsgBox "Press OK to begin report"
Dim WholeLine As String
Dim myPath As String
Dim workfile As String
Dim myR As Long

I have a list of English words (about 2500) that are listed in excel in column A. In column B I'd like the Portuguese translation.
The best I've got so far is to have a hyperlink in column B -
=HYPERLINK("http://www.ultralingua.net/index.html?action=define&sub=1&nv=0&searchtype=stemmed&text=XXXXXX&service=english2portuguese",
"ultralingua").
Where I've typed 'XXXXXX' this is the word that will be translated in
ultralingua.
Is there any way that XXXXXX can be replaced with the contents of a source cell i.e. so ultralingua translates the contents of one of the cells from column A? I'll the transcriibe the result into column B.

I have a list of numbers in a column. The column looks like this:
CodeA
1 5 7
1 2
3 4
2 6
4 5
I need the column to be translated using the code below, so for instance Row 1 would be Toys, BubbleGum, Cookies
1 = Toys
2 = Candy Canes
3 = GumDrops
4 = Chocolates
5 = BubbleGum
6 = Mints
7 = Cookies
Is it possible to count these individual items in the cells, even though there are more then 1 thing in a cell?

I need to check a website daily to see if a link has been updated. If it has been updated, the beginning of the link changes to a different date. Example: today link is www.10212009dave.com and tomorrow link may be www.10222009dave.com. Lets say the link is on www.gugg.com. The link does not change everyday, but I think a good way to see if it has been updated is to search through the source code in the html for that link.
Thus I would put www.10212009dave.com into cell A1 and tell excel to search the source code on www.gugg.com, and if the contents of cell A1 is NOT found, I'd display a message box stating the link has been updated.

I am attempting to extract a particular piece of data from a webpage. I was not able to use a webquery because the data can only be reached by searching an online database and the URL remains static throughout this process.
http://gisims2.co.miami-dade.fl.us/myhome/proptext.asp
The data of interest is contained in a simple, 2-column table with item descriptions in the first column and item values in the second. The code below is my closest attempt. I am attempting to look through the innertext of all the tables on the results page and see if any contain the text "CLUC", which is the description of the data I'm trying to retrieve. The code never finds any qualifying tables.
