I have a big collection of spreadsheets that are all laid out in the same fashion: from A2 down are the names of different individuals (one name per row). Column titles (from B1 right) are the names of unique qualifications that these individuals possess. In the cell where a row and column intersects is the date at which this qualification was awarded. If this doesn’t make total sense, I’ve attached a very basic version of this to the post (Sheet 1) – although the spreadsheets I’m working with have hundreds of individuals and scores of qualifications, rather than just a couple!
This data needs exporting/rearranging into a format that’s recognisable by another piece of software that we use. In this format, the data is split into three columns: the person’s name, a possessed qualification and the date it was awarded. This means that a single individual’s name may have multiple rows, since a different qualification will be present in each row for that person. An example of this layout is shown on Sheet 2 of the attachment.
This macro will need to be applied to a number of sheets with different time periods and different types of "Data". What I want to do is write a macro that will transform the data to look like this (where xxx is the data entries);
So that I can easily import it into access. I know basically how to do it, but I can't automate it to apply to a sheet with any stretch of data fields or types of data.
I'm using Excel 2010 and XP. I have data in rows 1 -4 that can not be altered. There are headings in Row 5, B-L & Row 6, F-J.
Data starts in Row 7 and follows the headings. This repeats for several thousand rows. I need a way to move Row 6, F-J and put it on Row 5, M-Q
Row 6, F-J and put it on Row 5, M-Q Row 8, F-J and put it on Row 7, M-Q Row 10, F-J and put it on Row 9, M-Q Row 12, F-J and put it on Row 11, M-Q .... .... ....
Code: Sub Sort_Active_Book() Dim i As Integer Dim j As Integer Dim iAnswer As VbMsgBoxResult iAnswer = MsgBox("Sort Sheets in Ascending Order?" & Chr(10) _ & "Clicking No will sort in Descending Order", _ vbYesNoCancel + vbQuestion + vbDefaultButton1, "Sort Worksheets")
[code].....
now if my sheets name is like this 001_Tommy, 002_Alex, 003_John, 004_Daniel, 005_Alan,......., and I want to sort sheets name after the underscore "_", arranged like this, 005_Alan, 002_Alex, 004_Daniel, 003_John, 001_Tommy,......, how to do this?
Is there a quick Macro I could use to rearrange text in a cell. For example our organisation list all the departments in an unconsistant way and it makes finding the departments hard using A-Z. For example some department will say "Department of ...", "Dept of ...", Division of ..." or "Div of ...". (Obviously excluding the quotes).
What I wanted to know is this. If you highlight the range you wish to work with, could you use a message box to ask you what text you wish to edit and then automatically search the range and make the changes.
For example search for "Dept of " (note I would need to keep the space after of otherwise I would have leading spaces) so that "Dept of ABC" becomes: "ABC, Dept of" and say "Division of XYZ" becomes "XYZ, Division of"
Looking to re-arrange particular data in attached SS. Sample has the highlighted data which is then converted to the result SS. Have many rows with variable lengths for each record.
I am seeking the expertise of you knowledge folks to advise me whether it is possible to create a "script" in Excel to jumble up certain letters in an entry?
Let me explain. What I have are 4 separate columns with data in them. I need to somehow rearrange them into a certain format, like an encryption I suppose.
Here's an example of some data I have :
COL 1 COL 2 COL 3 COL 4 ABCD EFGHIJ KLM NOPQ
What I need to do is jumble those up so they appear in the following format:
COL 1 COL 2 COL 3 COL 4 CDAB GFEHIJ LKM NPOQ
Is it possible to do this in Excel? You're probably wondering why I don't do it manually, but there are over 20,000 records that need jumbling up and obviously that would take a very long time.
I have been supplied a list of data (company name, address, tel no, email ect.) unfortunatly the data is not in the correct order. There is about 300 companies on the sheet.
Is there a way i can rearrange the data, i have attached a file to show the end result i am trying to acheive.
I have a raw data sheet from the CTI in my workplace (sheet 1 in the attached file), the problem with the data is that i can't seem to be able to sort it in a table like i want (like the one in sheet 2 in the file) because of the inconsistency of the data location,i was thinking that there must be some formula (offset?) or macro code that can arrange the data from sheet 1 into the table in sheet 2.
I have an Excel sheet that is in rows. I want to separate the data into columns. Each sample is separated by a space in the rows. So sample 1 is A1 is the name and B1 is the actual name. A2 is the description and B2 is the description. Each sample is +or- rows. Sample 1 may be 8 rows but sample 2 may be 6 rows. What type of formula or macro do I use to arrange the samples into columns instead of rows so the data will be like A1 name, A2 description, etc... and A2 will be sample 2 name, and B2 will be sample 2 description, etc...
I have an excel file with data that was entered in rows instead of columns and I need to rearrange the data into columns. Here's what my data looks like now, with what should be field names in column one and values in column two:
Company Name : Excel Company First Name : Jack Last Name : Smith Phone : 555-661-6674 Email : ozgrid_rocks@excelgods.com (this continues in a repeating pattern for thousands of rows)
I need the data like this:
Company Name : First Name : Last Name : Phone : Email Excel Company : Jack : Smith : 555-# : ozgrid_rocks@url
How do I use VBA to rearrange the data from the hierarchy format of Table 1 into the flat format of Table 2. See attached file >Data_Belinda_June-5-07.xls
Table 1: Each record has information arranged in a hierarchy format. Level 1 information is indented by one space on one line; Level 2 information is indented by 2 spaces on the next line, etc.
Table 2: Data from Table 1 have been rearranged into 7 columns. Another column has been added to create a field for the Reference ID.
Reference ID: Two types: i) Created by prefixing with the letters BI , adding the first four letters from column 4 and the first four letters from column 5; ii) As in (i) with the addition of the entire word from column 6.
The report I have may have more than one hundred records and there may be more than ten people within each section.
I have a report (roughly 4000 lines) which I need to rearrange for pivot/power-pivot use.
The structure for each row/record is:
col1 geography col2 area col3 customer col4 product col5 price col6-65 monthly sales units - 5 years (columns labelled Jan 2009, Feb 2009 .... Dec 2013)
I want to rearrange the data as:
col 1-5 unchanged col 6 month (data Jan 2009, Feb 2009, etc.) col 7 sales units
Currently i have 4000 rows/records (each containing 65 fields). Iwant to end up with 4000 x 60 or 240,000 rows/records of 7 fields each. Is this possible through a data import wizard or VBA routine?
I would like to create a macro so that it will pull all the data from the worksheet "Data" and put it onto worksheet "Extracted Data". However I only require the rows which have Booking Office No SU17.
Macro that extract information i need from column A into column B. My file contains comments regarding a sale made by a manager. And, the only information that pertains to me is the bags it will be using.
Below is a example of a comment (ROW 28 of the file):
PO 186 TRADER SHIPPING WITH BROWN 240 X 20 # PANDA $ 9.90 EACH $ 49.50 CWT. 850 X 40 # PANDA $ 19.05 EACH $ 47.63 CWT. US # 1 MAX. 4% BROKENS
The only information i need is 240 X 20 # PANDA and 850 X 40 # PANDA.
In the file, the Bags Tab, lists the names of all of the bags we current have in our inventory. I was thinking that a macro can run through column A of the comment tab and if it finds a match in the bag tab it would list it out in column B of the comments tab.
I need to create a "purchasing programme sheet from extracted data in a different workbook.
In short I need to open the Allocation, Add stock qauntities to the the boxes with a quantity in it and if its a zero i need (Once the button has been pressed) the information to be extracted to the corresponding boxes in the Purchasing Programme Document: Description, Part Number and quantity.
I’m not to sure this can be done but I will try and explain what I would like. I have a Master workbook simply called Master.xls (Price) and I need to extract data from 3 other workbooks, these workbooks are in a folder called INFO, the workbooks are called, Summary.xls,(Sheet1) Supplier.xls (Sheet1) and List.xls.(Sheet1). I have attached sample files of all the workbooks, the original Summary has about 2000 colums and the original List.xls has about 20000 columns.
The only workbook i would like to open would be the Master.xls, would it be possible to exract the data without opening the other workbooks? or at least to look like they are not opened. On the Master.xls
When the data button is clicked I would like the following info displayed, if possible. A3 info comes from looking at Summary.xls columns B & C and comparing it against List.xls columns A & B, when a match is found in either of the columns, the code in List.xls C column will be displayed in the Master.xls A3 cell ...........
Can VBA be used to extract a table from a website and output it on an excel sheet?
Basically we have to log in to a website and type data to our spreadsheet which is a bit tedious from the table on the website.
I'm guessing this can be done in some way but us having to enter username/password on website first to get to page we want will probably cause an issue would it?
As part of a research project i need to extract as much data as possible from a webpage. The problem is to access each table i have to follow lots of links which I can't get to work automatically.
Its from a greyhound-data.com. So an example would be I want to extract all the racing stats for every dog that raced in swindon between 1st jan 2010-1st feb 2010. When i put it in the search engine I get 512 races in a table. I have to follow the link on name of race for each race.. Then I have to follow the link for each dog in the racers box, 6 for each race. Then when i'm on the dogs page theres a link saying on the top of the page saying a nember of races eg. 67races (number will vary for each dog). If I press that I get a list of all the racing stats for that dog. Its that table i need. But i also need the dogs name as a constant column. I need the table for each of the 6 dogs for each race out of the 512.. So in total 3072 tables.. It a lot of data and I have no idea how to get it?!
My biggest problem is I don't know how to say follow the various links. And I don't know how to loop multiple times - once for each of the races in the original list and then for the 6 dogs.
I have a spreadsheet containing a factory's operational data, with each machine in the factory being represented by its own worksheet.
The sheets all have the same structure, with each line of data representing a shift (we have 12-hour continental shifts, so column A of all the pages has the date in an standard format, and column B has either "d" or "n", representing the shift). Various datat is documented on each machine on a shift-per-shift basis.
What I need to do is figure out how to do a macro that extracts all of the lines on all of the machines' worksheets that pertain to a particular shift (for instance, all of the lines where column A read "14-Mar" and column B read "d"), and export the values of the entire row to another worksheet, creating a shift summary on one page.
To do this, I would like to make the date and shift user-definable variables that appear at the top of what would become the summary sheet, and have a button that activated such a macro at the top of the page as well.
I'm trying to create a macro that will allow me to extract data from another workbook (whose name and location is listed in a defined cell) and populate a range in my new sheet with this data.
Ideally, I want to be able to do this without actualy opening the source file, but any means to this end would be great!
I know this was possible in Lotus 123, but have not yet found a way to do it in Excel.
I am finding it very difficult to extract the Project reference data for each employee, I have attached sample working file for reference.
For Example
I have a project names in Rows and Employee names in Columns and each employee fill the working efforts in multiple projects and i would like to extract which all project they have worked for each month. Since the data is very huge i am not able to progress fast in collecting the data
