I am trying to concatenate some string and integer. It is always for previous month end date, i.e, 7/31/2009 or 8/31/2009.
Here is I have the data now
Profit and Loss for
After running the macro I would like to be
Profit and Loss for 8/31/2009
Here is what I wrote so far which does not work. I am sure there is simpler way to do it. I put the month end date 5 columns to the right for the time being and in the intention after deleting it after concatenation automatically.
I would like to take out the first integer that comes after the word Orange (not case sensitive). I'm kinda at a loss here, how do I go about accomplishing this?
I've got an odd program that exports time data formatted as a text string. For example....
0:10:25
Since it has no numerical value, then I can't simply "format as number". I'm thinking that I will need to use one of the string methods eg: mid() to check each character individually and then convert that into the equivalent numerical value.
So the numerical output I am looking for in the above example would be 625.
I have a cell that gives a title and then a cell value:
="Design and Build "& if(B19>=0,B19,0)
The issue is, I need the B19 value it displays to be an integer. Right now it's giving me about 8 decimal places. I've tried formatting that cell and the cell it calls, but neither has any effect.
I am trying to name a Range in VBA with the following Case statement.
Select Case counter Case "2": Set Wk(numWeeks) = Range("P1:Q136") ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="Wk" & numWeeks, RefersTo:=Wk(numWeeks)
I have many more cases and have defined Wk(5) as a Range. What I am really after it is possible to to name the range using something similar to the code above that uses a predefined variable in the naming process.
i did some VBA quite a while back, and picking it up again.
I'm trying to get a function to read in a string, and return a value based on the string value.
Public Function value(ItemType As String) As Integer If ItemType = " Upper" Then value = 40 ElseIf ItemType = "Middle" Then value = 50 ElseIf ItemType = "Lower" Then value = 25 End If End Function
When i tried using it at the Cell level, it keep giving error i.e. Invalid Name Error
I am trying to combine text from multiple cells into one cell. I am referencing cells that reference cells on another tab. I have tried several formulas (see attached) but I have not been able to get rid of the zeros in the resulting string. I know I could reference the original cells, but I would like to find a solution to this without using VBA.
if you look in Column G you will notice the number on the right side of the column is indented one space too many (for any number that is 6 long in column A).
Is there any way to do an IF C=6 and then have it remove a space from before the number in Column G to have it line up?
i have 2 listboxes with numbers if user has selected choice in both then i want to enable okbutton. i tried in okbutton's mousemove: if listbox1.selected = true AND listbox2.selected = true then okbutton.enabled=true.
I have an Excel 2010 spreadsheet that I am using to save several numbers all in the same column. These numbers can range from the several thousands up to billions. The formatting I am using for these numbers is Number (using 1000s separator).

I am also using the spreadsheet to generate a text string for each of the numbers. I don't want the text string to show the number as it is, I want to shorten the number by only showing the first few digits followed by a "B" for billion, "M" for million, or "K" for thousand. For example, in the text string I want to show 1,600,000 as 1.6B.
In order to shorten the number I use the cell in the column to the right of each number. This cell uses the following custom formatting (which I found by doing a Google search): [>999999999.999]#.0,,,"B";[>999999.999]#,,"M";#,"K";

As you can see the formatting is quite complex (at least for me it is) but it does what I want it to do.
Here is a screenshot of what the original and custom formatted cells look like:
custom_formatted_cells.png
As you can see the custom formatting works and does exactly what I wan
The next column (after the custom formatted number) is where I put the generated text string for each of the numbers. As I stated above, I want the generated text to use the shortened version of the number (e.g. 1.6B).
To generate the text I use the CONCATENATE function with a reference to the cell containing the shortened number as one of the arguments. For example:
CONCATENATE("SOME STRING ", B1)
Where B1 is the custom formatted cell.
The problem I am running into is, the text that gets generated doesn't show the shortened format of the number, it shows the full number. Here is a screenshot demonstrating what is happening:
concatenate_formula.png
As you can see the generated text is "SOME STRING 1600000000". This is not what I want. I want the generated text to be "SOME STRING 1.6B".
I think I understand what's going on. When the CONCATENATE function references a cell it takes the actual value of the cell and ignores any formatting. (I suppose formatting is just the way you see the data, not how underlying functions receive the data.)
My question is, how can I re-write the CONCATENATE function (or use another function, etc. available to me) to use the formatted version of the cell?
*UPDATE* I have attached my spreadsheet as an attachment to this post (tackyjan_excelforums.xlsx). Please note that it was created and saved using Excel 2010.
I Want to be able to put in Col A the concatenate results of all equal P/N's from any given list. Or at least select the few cells that i know are duplicates and from that copy the Location to a single Column.
ColA ColB__ColC ______Loc__PN 1,2____1___A _______2___A _______3___B 4,5____4___C _______5___C
Desired results obtained via IF =IF(B2>0,A2&" , ",A2)&IF(C2>0,B2&" , ",B2)&IF(D2>0,C2&" , ",C2)&IF(D2>0,D2,"")
one , two , three , four one , two , three one , two one
Is there any smarter, shorter formula via Concatenate and Substitute or other formulas ?
My closest match, but not good enaugh is =SUBSTITUTE(CONCATENATE(A2&", "&B2&", "&C2&", "&D2), ", , ", " ") [ returna 2 commad ] one, two, three, four one, two, three, one, two one ,
I have been working on a basic input sheet for progress reporting at work to standardize the information and acheive a half decent automated report.
I am have trouble validating the textbox to only allow an integer to be entered in the box. On result of text being entered on add, a msgbox should prompt the user to enter only text.
How might I do this?
Private Sub CommandButton6_Click() Dim iRow As Long Dim ws As Worksheet
Below is a snapshot of data in a column. I need a way to extract the number, may be a whole, may be decimal, and leave behind the text description. Result to be put into a new column:
The idea here is that the integer could be integrated in anyway imaginable with the associated text. I don't need the text. The end result must display this in a new column:
i need is a script that will add two boxes together to get a sum in a third box, but where it is tricky for me is that i need the third box to retain the summed value even when either of the first two box values are deleted.
For example, say i have box A1=10, B1=40, and C1= SUM of A1 & B1 (so C1=50). Easy enough, but where im lost is that i want to be able to delete the value of either A1 or B1 and then have C1 still = 50, so then i can input another value into either A1 or B1 to continue to add to C1.
I'm creating a user form where the user can enter latitude and longitude in either Deg/Min/Sec format or Decimal Degrees. To go from decimal degrees into Deg/Min/Sec I need to do the following
X = Integer(A) <-- I need to cast A as an integer or truncate it. Not sure how to do this in VBA. Y = Integer[( A - X ) * 60] <-- Again, needs to be cast as an integer Z = {[( A - X ) * 60] - Y} * 60. I didn't see a native truncate function in Excel and in the past I've always used Left() or Right()
So I'm trying to format the last variable so that it is always four digits, ie, 0001, 0034, 0204, 1234, etc...
Any clue how to do this, I've searched around and can't seem to find the code for it. I could do it with a long set of conditional statements, but I'm pretty sure there is a format function or something.
In the following code snippet I have worked out a way to verify that the user inputs an Integer and then prompts downstream if an improper value was entered. The user is prompted for a corrected reponse and loops until they get it right. The initial Cancel at the first prompt was causing issues until i saw poster: titarelli use StrPtr(). Except for subsequent cancels, the code works but it is clunky at best. How to tighten this up?
VB:
Dim Quantity As Variant Dim CorrectedQuantity As Variant Dim j As Integer
Take a look at the sample sheet. I get the information as an import that looks like the info in column A.
I want it to look like the data in Column B. If I try to format as a number it always turns the last number to a 0. I also dont want the 0's on front of the digits either.
I dont really care how its done. But I would like a routine to turn column A into and like the example in Column B. No zeros on the front and maintaining all numbers.
I'm trying to write an if statement that checks if a value is a whole integer value or not. I was initially using the Mod operator but realized that the Mod operator rounds values to whole numbers before determining the outcome. Initially I tried:
