I am writing to a text file and only want to allow 10,000 lines. There is only one value on each line. How can I trim the top of this text file to allow for more entries to be appended to it and still keep it at no more that 10,000 entries?
The lines look like
"1001-1"
"1002-3"
"1003-3"
"1004-4"
"1005-5"
"1002-6"
"1001-10"
"1004-7"
"1015-5"
"0002-6"
I have a UserForm which writes data to rows in a master spreadsheet. I'm attempting to write some vba code for a CommandButton in the master spreadsheet which can identify and delete duplicate entries based on "user ID", "Date", and "Time". I would like the CommandButton to retain the most recent entry from a user and delete all previous entries.
My master sheet is set out as such...
A, B, C, D,
UserID, Date, Time, Response
The users could potentially submit multiple entries on the same day. Ideally I would like to be able to click a CommandButton and delete each user's submission but retain their most recent one (based on "UserID", then "Date", then "Time").
I've searched all day for a solution and I've come close but I can not figure out a code that accounts for my three variables ("UserID", then "Date", then "Time").
I want to sort a column in Excel 2007 which is having dates. Normally, we use oldest to newest or newest to oldest option in sort & filter. But i am unable to find this option in my excel sheet. how can I find this option in Sort & Filter.
Note: I have imported this data column from Access 2007
I have come up with this to Trim all of the data from rows 2:30 removing any trailing spaces after the last word in each cell. The macro takes a couple of minutes to run have I got something wrong that is making it run slowly or does the Trim process just take longer?
Sub TRIM_RANGE()
Dim myRange As Range
Dim myRow As Range
Sheets("CAMPAIGNS_2007").Select
Set myRange = Range("2:30")
If myRange Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
myRange.Replace What:=Chr(160), Replacement:=Chr(32), _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
For Each myRow In myRange.Columns
If Application. CountA(myRow) > 0 Then
myRow.TextToColumns Destination:=myRow(1), _
DataType:=xlFixedWidth, FieldInfo:=Array(0, 1)
End If
Next myRow
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I have this code that trims cells and I would like to implement in it a way to remove line returns in cells (new lines created with alt+enter).
Below is the code I used so far:
I have a small Excel VBA program that pulls data from our company database. I use this to collect information about orders that have been placed. The decriptions of our inventory within our accounting software usually go something like this: [
2/24] Small Red Rose
The [2/24] stands for 24 pieces per case and 2 pieces per inner pack.
My question is... can I trim off the text '[2/24]' within VBA?
I need to create quotes, labels and other things that use these descriptions and don't need to include the information with the brackets.
Obviously within VBA everything is done with variables, such as strDESC for the description.
I would like to trim text based on the character .
For example i have a code FGH45679.A How do I keep only the characters before .A without the dot?
Any idea how you would remove all text strings that are red, I want to leave any text within the cells that are not red.
e.g
A1 contains
15245, 1535554, 17548789, erg, rtree, bf5256s
Would become
15245, erg, bf5256s
I want to trim text into 10 characters.I am new to excel.
Attached is the sample sheet.
TRIM.xls‎
I have a cell which holds text with a maximum number of characters of 6. Let´s say I want this cell to hold a word which is bigger, and trim it till it has 6 characters.
Example: word "Hippopotamus" (longer than 6 characters) should be trimmed so its displayed as "Hippop"(6 characters)
is there a way to specify how i want to trim, either right or left?
Example "Hippop"(6 characters trim right) or "otamus" (6 characters trim left)
I want to put text after firsr 15 chars to new row.

I need to divide the single column to 7 column as separated by semicolon ";"
I have an existing spreadsheet with a column of strings (actually VIN numbers). These numbers correllate to a bunch of text files, that can exist in one of three folders (UsernameDesktop1, 2, or 3) on my desktop. What I need the macro to do is:
1) get the filename from A2 (A1 is a heading row)
2) Find the appropriate text file in one of the three folders
3) Put the folder name into I2
4) Scan the text file for some strings, and copy some data that follows those strings into J2:O2 (I can handle programming this)
5) Close the text file
6) repeat above for the remainder of filenames (about 1800 files)
I have the following two columns, and would like to obtain for each individual Company, the corresponding Country values excluding duplicates as text in a single cell.
Company 2Country B
Company 2Country C
Company 3Country C
Company 3Country C
Company 5Country A
Company 5Country C
Company 5Country C
For example:
- For Company 2, a cell containing "Country B, Country C"
- For Company 3, a cell containing "Country C"
- For Company 5, a cell containing "Country A, Country C"
I've approached generating an array using an IF statement, as in =IF(INDEX(A1:A8="Company 5",,),INDEX(B1:B8,,)," "), which returns the following array: ={" ";" ";" ";" ";" ";" ";" ";"Country A";"Country C";"Country C";" ";" ";" ";" "}.
The question is: how do I get that array to produce, as text in a cell: "Country A, Country C". Note that the duplicate Country C has been removed.
There are a few "StringConcat" User-defined functions that I've found elsewhere on the internet, but they don't seem to be able to handle to conditionally generated IF Index array, which I would think is key to parsing between Countries corresponding to each Company in the list.
Got a slight problem; I am making a "worker-plan", where you should be able to write a name on one file and have it updated (removed) from the equivalent columns on another file automatically. Here's an example with two separate projects:
Project 1 before and after changes:
Attachment 257366
Attachment 257367
Project 2 before and after changes:
Attachment 257368
Attachment 257369
You can see here how I intended it to work. When one worker is moved from Project 1 to Project 2, that worker should also be removed from those weeks in Project 1. The previous worker from Project 2 should also be removed from those weeks (in Project 2).
Are there any formulas that can make this work automatically? All week numbers will belong to the same columns in all files.
Edit: There are 30 files that should be syncronized, not just two.. I could also gather all files into one file with sheets, instead of having seperate files.
Is it possible to count Text & Non Text Entries in the following way?
The value in cell A1 = 18A
The value in cell B1 = 18B
The value in cell C1 = 19
A Cell with a value that includes and A or a B constitutues a half of a unit so -
The sum of A1 on its own would be .50
The sum of B1 on its own would be .50
The sum of C1 on its own would be 1.0
The sum of B1:C1 would be 1.5
I need a formula on my "Problem Areas" sheet that will search and then list
from my "Overall" sheet the ten oldest dates (column O), that have not been
closed (column B), and do not match the text "Repair Clin" (column S). Each
row of data begins with the purchase order# (column A).
On the "Problem Areas" sheet it will only list the PO# and Date Opened.
I was given two files from an old DOS pos system to make a current mailing list with.
The first file is a list of all the customers from this company(full list), the 2nd is all the customers active within the previous year(active list). I don't have any access to any information other than what is on the 2 lists I was given and I need to use the active list to make sure that only the current customers get sent anything. Not normally a big issue, if it weren't how these lists were formatted when given to me. The full list is a mailing list that was formatted to run labels from a dot matrix printer and imports to excel in the following manner,
John & Jane Doe
1234 NE Road St
Someplace, OR 97056
The active list is formatted like:
Doe | John & Jane
Because there is no address information on the active list I can't just generate a full mailing list. I am able to seperate the values from the full list by referencing cells onto another worksheet (it seperates as 'name' 'address' 'city/state/zip') but I need to find a true/false formula, or something similar, that will tell me which names on the full list are also on the active list. I can do it the other way around, and check to see which names from the active list are on the full list (all of them) but because of how the values are seperated on each worksheet I can't seem to figure out how to make this work.
I'm looking for a formula that will look at a sheet of 1500 entries and list the 10 oldest dates held in the sheet.
Is there any way of doing this other than data/sort?
The data that I would need to pull would be the customer name, ref number and the start date. (So roughly, name is column A, ref B, and start C)
Without VBA, I'd like to find the most recent date in a workbook. The workbook as various columns with dates on numerous sheets. I just need to know the date that is the newest date. Nothing else.

I have a report that lists the quantity of an item that is manufactured on particular day. On some days there will be no items produced. The report is similar to the above table. I don't want to change the table format.
I know the current stock of that item (in this example it is 200). Note that the current stock is not just the sum of the quantiy for each day's production.
I need a function that will determine the oldest date of manufacture of material in the current stock. The function assumes that that the current stock is made up of the most recently produced material. ie the stock is depleted on a first in -first out basis. Essentially the calculation has to sum backwards from the most recent manufacture date until the total = 200 and then lookup to corresponding date.
In the above table the oldest prodcution date would be 6/Jan. The answer to the funstion in example = 6/Jan
I want to learn how to program excel to do this :
1) Type in a text data in a predesignated entry box
2) Excel automatically inserts that text into a table
3) If that text is already in the table, then adds a counter next to it (or increases the counter by one)
4) Excels then clears the text data in the entry box
Basically, I want to tabulate the number of times a specific entry comes up, and it would be much faster if I can just type it in, press enter, and let excel do the rest. It would be ideal if I can also add a date to that entry, so the data table comes up to something like a date vs the entries table, and the intersection would be the number of times each entry comes up on that day.
I created a UserForm to populate client billing info and job location info (so it's a two-parter). A clicked button will then populate a spreadsheet with all of the information. That part works fine.
When the client billing info is the same as their job info, I'd like to offer a checkbox that will populate the job info with the billing info rather than having to type everything twice (like you see on online billing and shipping orders).
sort attached file data (Dates Month Year) by ascending order.

I would like to create a small table that upper management can look at weekly and say "these are still open, why?" rather than having to look thru the log or go by memory.
I already have an "at a glance" chart, now I'd like to have something similar as a list (complaint number, date opened, customer, and maybe the issue at hand). would love to have this as a floating object that can be dragged around if needed. (embedded in a text box?)

Im Using Windows Xp With Sp2 With Microsoft Excel 2003
I have a list of names that are mixed and in no order (and need to stay out of order, so not sorting allowed). I need to parse this list to give me the FIRST instance that each name shows up in the list. The one exception is that the first name, cell A1, will be auto-generated from a different workbook, and it is automatically named Name1.
So, in the example spreadsheet, Name1 (cell E2) must equal "Alice". The problem arises on Names2-4. Name2 (cell E3) should be David, Name3 (cell E3)=Jerry, and Name4 (cell E4)=Mark. I tried an array formula:
{=INDEX(A2:A13,MATCH(TRUE,A2:A13<>Name1),0)},
But it is yielding "Jerry" as Name2, when it needs to be Name3. And, of course, this doesn't work on Names3-4 at all. I don't think it matters, but just in case, A2:A13 will be data validation lists.
I think it's an easy one but for the life of me I can't get around it. ccasionally while re-typing data in fields with the intention of saving-as a new file, an error message appears saying "no more than 20 characters" This happens even when the number of characters is LESS than 20! I have tried clearing cell contents, copying & pasting, re-setting conditions/parameters for columns/rows etc., and nothing seems to work with any consistency. Instead of looking for a work-around solution I'd like to find the actual corrective action.
