Formula To Extract Numbers From Alpha Numerical Entry
Jan 8, 2014I have a sheet with thousands of rows of ID's which are made up of a series of letters, numbers, underscores and or spaces. Within the sheet there are numerous duplicates so I need to able extract the numerical element, which is the key data to be able to identify the duplicates.
The numbers I need to extract are mainly 6 and 7 digits long however don't always sit in the same place within the ID. I don't need the 3 digit number sequences, just the 6 & 7 number sequences
e.g
AB_123_456789_Jones
CD_131_7654321_Smith
AB_123_Jones_456789
I've found a formula that strips out all the numbers, however it also included the 3 digit numbers which I don't want. I've also used Text To Columns to break up the ID across a number of columns however that leaves me with 2 and sometimes 3 columns where a 6 digit ID appears
Is there a simple way to extract the number if it's a certain length? i.e. 6 or 7 digits long
Sort Column Of Number & Numbers With Alpha Characters Attached
Jan 7, 2010Have a spreadsheet that contains a column of 3 digit numbers as well as 3 digit numbers with 2 trailing alpha characters.
Example:
376
377
421
376AB
376XY
377NC
421GQ
421EF
Need to sort by this column, but, with the parameter of sorting first by the numeric only, and then by numeric with alphas. So, the above list would look like this sorted properly:
376
376AB
376XY
377
377NC
421
421EF
421GQ
Find Next Highest Value In Alpha Numeric Series?
Mar 15, 2014In have a worksheet with about 5,000 rows. In column there is a unique identifier for each row, however the unique identifier can take one of 12 different formats, namely:
L1314LAND00001 through to L1314LAND0XXXX
L1314CUST00001 through to L1314CUST0XXXX
L1314COMM00001 through to L1314COMM0XXXX
M1314LAND00001 through to M1314LAND0XXXX
M1314CUST00001 through to M1314CUST0XXXX
M1314COMM00001 through to M1314COMM0XXXX
N1314LAND00001 through to N1314LAND0XXXX
N1314CUST00001 through to N1314CUST0XXXX
N1314COMM00001 through to N1314COMM0XXXX
S1314LAND00001 through to S1314LAND0XXXX
S1314CUST00001 through to S1314CUST0XXXX
S1314COMM00001 through to S1314COMM0XXXX
These unique identifiers won't always appear in sequentiual order. In Cells B2 to M2, I want to be able to determine what the next entry for each of the twelve variations will be, so for example, if the current highest value in column A for the 'S1314LAND' range S131400421, in cell K2, I would want it to display S1314LAND00422, and if the current highest value in column A for the 'M1314CUST' range M1314CUST0036, I would want cell C2 to display M1314CUST0037, so anyone at a glance can see the next highest unique reference for the relevant set, rather than having to go through the unique identifiers in column A manually to determine the next entry in the series.
I'm not really sure where to start, when there can be more than one aplhanumeric entries ending in the same number, e.g. S1314CUST00500 and M1314LAND00500.
Remove Non-alpha Characters From Alphanumerics With Option To Remove Numbers
Aug 8, 2009I have found a very useful UDF for removing non-alpha characters from strings. (See below, Credit for posting to Stanley D Grom - Ozgrid post ´Removing Non-alpha Characters From Text´).
Option Explicit
Private Function RemoveCharacters(InString As String) As String
Dim intLoopCounter As Integer
Dim intStringLength As Integer
Dim intASCIIVal As Integer
intStringLength = Len(InString)
InString = LCase(InString)
For intLoopCounter = 1 To intStringLength
intASCIIVal = Asc(Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1))
If intASCIIVal >= 97 And intASCIIVal <= 122 Then
RemoveCharacters = RemoveCharacters + Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1)
End If
Next intLoopCounter
End Function
Two requests:
1. Could the UDF be modified such that any part of a string contained within brackets is also removed (e.g. "NLGA High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlgahighstreeten")?
2. Can an argument be added to the format of the UDF, such that numbers (0 to 9) are either included or excluded (e.g. RemoveCharacters(A1,1) where the argument ´1´ would include any numbers (0 to 9), so "NLGA2003 High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlga2003highstreeten6")? ´blank´or ´0´would exclude these numbers, i.e. would return "nlgahighstreeten"
Changing Cells From Alpha To Numeric And Now My If Function Won't Work
Mar 18, 2009I had an "If" formula that would grab my numeric data from one cell and dump it into the corresponding cell depending on my letter code. I had to change my code vales from apha to numeric. I enclosed the attached spreadsheet and highlighted the cells in yellow that are in my formula that don't work any longer. I was hoping someone may have a solution.

Detect Numbers In A Cell Range And Then Change Cells Based On What Numbers Are Found?
Feb 27, 2014I'm going to be using a spreadsheet to keep track of where different people are at. So if Person 1 is in Room 3, I will stick a 3 in the box next to their name and then can look at the spreadsheet whenever I need and see what room they are in. When I'm deciding what room to put a person in, though, I need to be able to quickly glance at a list of Room #'s and see what one's are still available. So I have a bank of Room #'s in the spreadsheet....1,2,3, etc.
What I'd like, is some way to set this up so that when I put, for example, "3" in the cell next to "Person 1" the spreadsheet automatically removes "3" from the bank of available Room #'s and when I delete the "3" because the person has left, it adds "3" back to the bank of available Rooms.
Split Range Of Numbers From One Cell Into Column Of Multiple Cells All With Individual Numbers
Mar 5, 2012I have a mass of data which look something like this:
table removed
and I require the ranges of reference numbers to be listed in a column one above the other, which requires inserting new rows. I also need the date & description columns copied down into the newly inserted rows.
So basically for example I would want the top row to now read:
table removed
and then apply the same procedure to the other ranges below this.

How To Add Alpha Numeric Values
Mar 5, 2014In a column I have data like 2W, 2BM, 4W, 6BM, 10W and 15BM. Question is how can I total all W and all BM. Total for W = 2W + 4W+10W = 16W and total for BM = 2BM +6BM +15BM = 23BM.

Numeric Alpha Sort
Mar 5, 2009I have an application where there is a column A with values of F1 through
F83. There is data in columns B,C,D,E,F AND G.
From time to time there is an addition in column A, the value being F1A or F2A etc.
The rows then have to be sorted so that F1A follows F1 and the next row would start with F2 rather than F10.
If Statement With Alpha Characters
Apr 24, 2009Attached spreadsheet - the cell highlighted in yellow.
This is the formula I currently have, but it isn't giving me the results I am looking for:
=IF(TYPESVC="CompanyX", COUNT(Companies!I:I), " ")
Basically, IF the Companies tab, last column has 'CompanyX' written in it - then I want to count the number of responses provided in the Q2N column.
Same formula would be copied over to the other cells to the right as well (for Q5, Q6, Q7, etc.)
Alpha Numeric Sort
Dec 15, 2006I'm doing a sort of product codes which are of different character length with some numeric and others alpha-numeric.
A small section of the sort is below.
I want it to end up like this:
4040
4040A
4040B
4040BTO
4040C
4040E
40400
40409
41402
42402
42402A
43400
But the sort ends up like this:
4040
40400
40409
4040A
4040B
4040BTO
4040C
4040E
41402
42402
42402A
43400
In other words, I would like product codes where the last character is a letter to be sorted ahead of product codes where the last character is a digit. The way Excel is normally set up, it sorts in just the opposite way.

Limit First Character To Alpha
Feb 27, 2009I'm trying to have the macro limit the cell entry to 5 characters beginning with a "P" and the remaining 4 character being numeric. The problem I'm having is that it's not recognizing the requirement for the beginning "P" but only identifies if the length is less than 5 characters. Any idea how I can resolve this?
For PN2 = 43 To 72
If Not IsEmpty(Cells(PN2, 1)) And Left(Cells(PN2, 1), 1) "P" And Len (Cells(PN2, 1)) 5 Then
MsgBox ("The employee number must be 5 characters long begining with P (e.g. P0001), please change accordingly!")
Range(Cells(PN2, 1), Cells(PN2 + 2, 1)).ClearContents
Cells(PN2, 1).Select
End If

May 13, 2014So what i need is a 6 digit alpha numeric random (1000 entries)
so from some searching i figured that it should be...
=MID(A1,1+INT(RAND()*LEN(A1)),1)&MID(A1,1+INT(RAND ()*LEN(A1)),1)&MID(A1,1+INT(RAND()*LEN(A1)),1)&
MID (A1,1+INT(RAND()*LEN(A1)),1)&MID(A1,1+INT(RAND()*L EN(A1)),1)&MID(A1,1+INT(RAND()*LEN(A1)),1)
[Code]....
but when i fill down it auto it to a2 , then a3 etc... how do i stop that?
I might delete out the o O and 0 cause it gets confusing...
Also, it re-randomizes every time I open the file... is there a way to stop it?
