Truncate To Last Common Folder In A Column?

Sep 15, 2014

I have Column A with file paths from the same main directory.

C:UsersSJohn.AJAXDesktopTimeBills.docx
C:UsersSJohn.AJAXDesktopTimeDChargers hick.docx
C:UsersSJohn.AJAXDesktopTimeDChargers raps.docx
C:UsersSJohn.AJAXDesktopTimeDChargersDodgersstadium.docx
C:UsersSJohn.AJAXDesktopTimeDChargersDodgersstats.docx

I would like to find the last common folder along the entire Column (Time),
remove all to the left, and insert E: in its place. Getting:

E:TimeBills.docx
E:TimeDChargers hick.docx
E:TimeDChargers raps.doc
E:TimeDChargersDodgersstadium.docx
E:TimeDChargersDodgersstats.docx

I have already created a VBA Script for other parts of this project, so I would like to add the script to the end rather than create a separate macro. If there is a formula that can do this I am willing to work with that as well.

How To Create Third Column With Common Value

Aug 22, 2014

I have two columns(1 and 2), Column two will for each data set have two common values. For most of the data set where column two have the second common value, i can find it based on column 1, but where column 1 differs, i do not know how to get data based on column two.

See attached, column 1 and 2 data. Column 3 I took out one common value, column 4 I just did a IF function to populate blank spaces with common value, but for row 24 - 26 if does not work because column 1 does not follow same logic. Is there a way to populate a third column with one value(can be either of the two common values in column 2(note there will be multiple data sets)?

Match Two Lists With One Common Column?

Oct 17, 2008

I have two lists, let's say:

A B
Eva 1982
Anna 1981
Lisa 1983
John 1980
Steve 1972
...

And

A B

Can in any way match the above lists automaticly, so the information from List number 2, column B, appears at the correct place in List number 1, Column C? For empty cells, no information is fine.

Matching Data From Common Column?

Jul 7, 2011

Table 1

Code:
7/4/2011AMWG16=01BLK25K_USA[a3]*042711Date a Rich Black Man By June 232350$0.19 http://www.jyxsaw.com/blackrm/index.php?t202id=2676&t202kw=AMWG16=01_0210-3
7/4/2011AMWG16=01BLK25K_USA[a3]*042711Date a Rich Black Man By June

[Code]....

I've got two tables of information here, if you scroll to the far right of table 1 and look at the left of table two, you'll see a common code like:

AMWG16=01_0211-20
AMWG16=01_0212-16

and these entries will appear multiple times as well

AMWG16=01_0212-16

appears twice and the data is different and will need to be added up

How can I:

1. Add up the data on each table with the common string such as "AMWG16=01_0212-16"

2. Take all the data that has been added up and combine the statistics, for example,
when its all done it should show

AMWG16=01_0212-16

in the first column, and then all the statistics from the two tables in the columns to the right.

I'm guesssing...

Since some entries appear multiple times, you will need to sum up all the unique entries for that value. Say:

AMWG16=01_0211-20

Shows up three times, you'll need to sum up all the values and this needs to be done on both tables

THEN

You can combine the data

I'm familiar w/ vlookup, index, match functions, but I'm not quite sure how to put this all together

Getting Most Common Value Of Column That Is Result Of Filter

Nov 1, 2013

I'm applying a filter in a sheet that's something like this, after applying the filter it looks like this (Example Item 999)

Item
Inv. Qty
Avi. Qty
Flag
BOX

999
12
9
N
X1

[code]...

I was trying to get the "Flag" Column value, (inside the filter and it crashed)

Code:
With InventorySheet
.AutoFilterMode = False
LRowOnQ = .Cells(Rows.Count, "Q").End(xlUp).Row
.Range("B1").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=Project
.Range("D1").AutoFilter Field:=4, Criteria1:=ContractNumber
.Range("N1").AutoFilter Field:=14, Criteria1:=Code
.Range("Q1").AutoFilter Field:=17, Criteria1:=">0"
Set rangeFilteredInventory = .Range("Q1:Q" & LRowOnQ)
ControlFlag = .Range("L2").Value
End With

After the filter, it always take the same value.

Code:
With InventorySheet
.AutoFilterMode = False
LRowOnQ = .Cells(Rows.Count, "Q").End(xlUp).Row
.Range("B1").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=Project
.Range("D1").AutoFilter Field:=4, Criteria1:=ContractNumber
.Range("N1").AutoFilter Field:=14, Criteria1:=Code
.Range("Q1").AutoFilter Field:=17, Criteria1:=">0"
Set rangeFilteredInventory = .Range("Q1:Q" & LRowOnQ)
End With
ControlFlag = InventorySheet.Range("L2").Value

Is there any way to take the most common letter of the result range?

I'm aware there's a average option in subtotal, but I think it's just for numbers.

Code:

With InventorySheet
.AutoFilterMode = False
LRowOnQ = .Cells(Rows.Count, "Q").End(xlUp).Row
.Range("B1").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=Project
.Range("D1").AutoFilter Field:=4, Criteria1:=ContractNumber
.Range("N1").AutoFilter Field:=14, Criteria1:=Code
.Range("Q1").AutoFilter Field:=17, Criteria1:=">0"

[code]...

And it doesn't even do the loop.

Macro To Create New Column From Common Words

Jun 4, 2013

I have a spreadsheet with approx 7000 rows, many of which contain the same item but with flavors and other variations on the end. An example would be:

VB:
A B
10142 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker-Banana
10143 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker-Chocolate
10144 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker-Strawberry
10145 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker-Unflavoured
10010 **Bodybuilding Warehouse Premium Whey Probiotic - 2.2kg
10011 **Bodybuilding Warehouse Premium Whey Probiotic - 2.2kg + FREE Shaker

Would it be possible To create a New column (column C) which would display all common words from row b into the New column Like below?

A B C
10142 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker-Banana 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker
10143 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker-Chocolate 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker
10144 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker-Strawberry 6kg of whey bundle With Free protein shaker

[Code] ....

I've attached a larger sample of our list to get a better idea of different variations that are on the spreadsheet.

I think what we need is something similar to this thread[URL] .....

Concatenating Cells Based On Common Value In Next Column?

Apr 23, 2013

I'm using excel 2008 for mac. I've got a spreadsheet with around 4000 rows. The data is organized like this:

|___________URL_________|______EMAIL______|
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain

What I'm trying to do is concatenate all of the URLs into one cell so that each email address has only 1 single row with many URLs associated with it. I tried using VLOOKUP(B1, $A$1:$B$4000, 1, FALSE) but this didn't work. I thought it was a long shot anyway. I also tried writing a bash script do parse a csv with this data and create a csv file with the URLs concatenated with no luck. I'm trying to get my data to look like this:

|___________URL_________|______EMAIL______|
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain

Where these are 2 adjacent cells.

EDIT: The format didn't turn out like I'd hoped. In the first example, each URL has an associated email address, each in its own row. In the second, it is just one row, with multiple urls in the first cell and an email address in the second cell.

Merge Couple Of Spreadsheets With Common Column / Field

Sep 15, 2013

I have a couple of spreadsheets. all of them have a same or common column called "ID".

The order of the ID columns of the spreadsheets are not in the same order however.

I'd like to see if there is a way that I can merge the spreadsheets to one using the shared ID.

To explain more:
Spreadsheet1 columns are: "ID", "URL", "Location"
Spreadsheet2 columns are: "ID", "Picture"
Spreadsheet3 columns are: "ID", "Address"

As I said copy/past is not an option as the IDs are not in the same order. I need to create a new spreadsheeet and have all "ID", "URL", "Location", "Picture", "Address" in that spreadsheet.

I'm trying to truncate (not round) a percentage, for example if 6.25% to 6.2%. I'm having issues figuring this out because the percentage already in the cell is a result of a formula (i.e. SUM=A1/B1.) Does anybody know a way to acheive this without having to sacrifice the formula already in the cell?

Locate 2nd Space From Right And Truncate

Jun 9, 2007

This formula finds the last space from the right and returns the values less the last space and whatever is to the right-
=TRIM(IF(LEFT(Y25,2)="~C",REPLACE(LEFT(Y25,FIND("`",SUBSTITUTE(Y25," ","`",LEN(Y25)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(Y25," ",""))))),1,FIND(" ",Y25),""),RIGHT(Y25,LEN(Y25)-FIND(" ",Y25))))

Results of a item of a whole size:
LAKAI KOSTON SLCT INDY SHOE BK

However- I forgot I had added a criteria to convert records that have a fractional value from decimal to a fractional value and an extra space shows up. I need to alter the above formula to handle this additional condition, returning the value w/ out the second space and the size 10 shown below.

Results of an item w/ a fractional size, ie. 10 1/2:

I would like to limit a text cell to 40 characters. If greater than 40 characters are entered, the rest is truncated. Can this be done without VBA?

I have limited it by going Data - Validation

This has done two things. 1. Gives an error box with Error Alert Turned on. 2. Allows greater than 40 characters to be entered if Error alert is turned off.

Excel 2003 :: Extract Variable Rows Of Cells From Files In A Folder To Existing File In Folder

Mar 15, 2013

I need a macro in a workbook to look at all the files in the same folder that have "*att*.xls" in the name and determine and copy from the range A15:W515 only the rows that have data in at least columns A, C and D. Each file will vary as to how many rows there will be and there are more than the files with "*att*.xls" in the folder. The data will be on the only worksheet in each file and the worksheet is named "G2WAttendee_xls" the data from all the files need to be copied to the file called "Consolidated webinar reports.xls" (I am using Excel 2003) and to a sheet called "Attendance Data" and added to the end of the last paste.

At the start of the macro the current file "Consolidated webinar report.xls" should be saved to a sub folder of the current directory and have the date saved added to the name. The sub folder is called "Completed reports". The data in the original file on worksheet "Attendance Data" should be deleted.

At the end of the process all the files that have had data copied from them should be moved to the sub folder "Attendance reports consolidated" (This could be done as each file is closed if that is easier).

I have headings in row 1 of the "Attendance Data" worksheet that match the headings in the various files in the folder (which will always be in row 14 of the individual "*att*.xls" files).

The folder with all the files and the "Consolidated webinar report.xls" file is at path "Z:P and S MEvaluationsWebinar series 2012-13TB".
