VLookup And Concatenate - Leading Zero Dropped

Apr 13, 2012

I am trying to use a Vlookup and concatenate 3 cells from Sheet B onto one cell in Sheet A. I have managed to get it to work, but the leading Zero's are being dropped. I have formatted the cells on Sheet B using custom format and "00000" but they are not coming through on Sheet A.

Here is the formula I am using

=CONCATENATE(VLOOKUP($L$1,[EFT_Exceptions_20120413.xls]EFT!$A:$BE,10,FALSE))&"-"&(VLOOKUP($L$1,
[EFT_Exceptions_20120413.xls]EFT!$A:$BE,9,FALSE))&"-"&(VLOOKUP($L$1,
[EFT_Exceptions_20120413.xls]EFT!$A:$BE,11,FALSE))

Leading 0s Being Dropped (XLS To CSV Stream) - VBA

Jul 7, 2013

I have a cell formatted as text and I'm throwing it to a variable. That variable is a string. Then I am streaming that data to a CSV using I/O. I am using the "print" command to send the value:

Code:
Print #1, value
=> If the value in the sheet is "0123", the value that appears in the CSV is "123".
=> If the value in the sheet is "'0123" (preceeded with an apostrophe, to indicate literal text), CSV value is "123".
=> If I add the apostrophe (') in VBA directly so that value in the variable is still "'0123", I actually then get "'0123" (apostrophe included!) in the CSV file! Problem is though, that the (') is not the preceeding character but is actually part of the value now!

I'm trying to retain the leading zeros through the file streaming process.

Stopping Zeroes From Being Dropped After Decimal Points?

Feb 10, 2014

I've read various "solutions" to my request but it's Greek to me. Simply stated I occasionally have to create worksheets that involve dollars and cents. My question is how can I get Excel to stop dropping the zero if its the last digit to the right of the decimal point? $42.30 becomes $42.3, etc.

I've looked through the preferences/options and can find nothing to rectify this. Any way to do this so that keeping the zero becomes the default for any tables, lists, etc that I create in the future?

VLookup Of Concatenate With Wildcard

Jan 31, 2014

I would like to Vlookup an association of data in a matrix where not all information is available. e.g:

Vlookup of following data (concatenate):

A1&B1&C1&D1
A2&B2&C2&D2
A3&B3&C3&D3

but in the mapping I would have a wild card (*) in certain columns (not always the same column)

The concatenate would be for exemple:

A1&*&C1&D1
A2&B2&*&D2
*&B3&C3&*

I know it works on the other way around (Vlookup of concatenate with wilrdcards) but I can not have wildcards in my source data.

Jul 13, 2006

I have drop down fields using a vlookup to grab the corresponding data in a colums next it which is being concatenated into a one big cell. The problem is a set of other columns that I need to pull data from but its dependant to a previous column. In the attachment you see which ever region is selected the following column data is grabbed and the same goe for title. Now when the location is selected the info in its column should be selected that corresponds to the row that the specific title is on. example

Concatenate In A Vlookup To Search For A Resource Number

Mar 4, 2010

what i am trying to do is use concatenate in a vlookup to search for a resource number and date, then return another column in the array.

the formula looks like:
=VLOOKUP(CONCATENATE(D7,$H$6),Roster_Allocation,7,FALSE)
but only results in NA.

if i search for the resource number only, i get the correct result.
also, the res# and date are concatenated in the table array. could this be related to the way excel is storing the dates (40241?) even though both concatenated fields look the same?
i have also tried adding a new coumn which has the res# and dates concatenated as the lookup value but still all NA.

Concatenate Multiple Vlookup Results With Dash Exclude Null Values Or 0 Return?

Jun 10, 2014

The 3 vlookup will be in a single cell for concatenation like :

=vlookup1&"-"&vlookup2&"-"&vlookup3

Problem the are 3 vlookups where it will return names (with format -> Fname, Given Name Middle) and probably blank returns.

I have problem with the replace since there are also spaces between the Fname,Gname and Mname sample name with spaces.

Vlookup Multiple Values Then Concatenate All Values In One Cell?

Jul 23, 2014

two formulas for one data set. The data is attached in the spreadsheet: "Product IDs". The data is a set of Master Product IDs (parent) and the Linked to them Products (children). I need to create a relationship between unique parents (Master Product IDs) and their children (Linked Products)

I need to create two formulas:

1. From the Data Set table, need to vlookup the unique value in column A (Master Product ID) and return comma delimited (concatenated) corresponding values from column B (Linked Products). So, the result will be as shown in Table 2.

2. From the Data Set table, need to vlookup the unique (de-duplicated) parent/children relationship in column A (Master Product ID) and return comma delimited (concatenated) corresponding values from column B (Linked Products). There are total 3 parent/children relationships in Table 1. So, the result will be as shown in Table 3.

Concatenate Non Blank Cells But Use Concatenate And Substitute Instead Of IF

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

Keep Leading Zeros?

Oct 8, 2012

I have formatted the cells to be '0000' (showing the leading zero) however when my VBA code runs it copies the cell value into a string but when I stop the code running to check the value the leading zero(s) are gone. I can see they are the same on both worksheets in the correct format. I've tried a few others like integer and long but same same.

Look-ups And Comparisons Leading Zero

Jan 23, 2010

Sample data:

1234
234
123
0304
304
7685
0123
0076
687

I need to be able to use formulas on the above numbers to perform look-ups and comparisons(=IF(A1>1000,"Yay","Boo")). My issue is the leading 0. To use formulas the above fields HAVE to be in a number format. Converting to typical number format removes the leading 0. All of the help files I can find show how to preserve the leading 0 either require a set number of 0s or require a set length. Unfortunately my data cannot match those rules. Is there any way I can convert these cells to a number format AND preserve any existing leading 0(s)?

Keep Leading Zero For CSV File

Oct 17, 2011

I've been tasked at work with created a daily CSV upload file for a new system. Typically, the format the raw data comes in is .xls and very untidy (direct from SAP).

As such I have created a small macro which tidys up the spreadsheet, and saves it as a CSV. However, I have only just noticed that for the product codes we have which have a leading zero, the .xls file displays the leading zero without a problem, but in the resultant CSV file they are gone.

The macro I use, is as follows:

Code:

Sub SamplesUpload()
'
' SamplesUpload Macro
'
'
Range("A:A,G:G").Select
Range("G1").Activate
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft

[Code] .....

As you can see, it's very crude (I'm a complete nubie when it comes to this) - the Application.Run "PERSONAL.xlsm!CSV" is a small macro which puts double quote marks around all content of any populated cells in column B and the Application.Run "PERSONAL.xlsm!SaveAsCSV" is a small macro which saves the current sheet as a CSV file - code for those as below:

Code:

Sub SaveAsCSV()
Dim DTAddress As String
Dim FileName As String
Dim FullyQualifiedFileName As String
'Get the path to the desired save location
[Code] ........

Code:
Sub CSV()

Dim arrB As Variant: arrB = Intersect(ActiveSheet.UsedRange, [B:B]).Value
Dim R As Long
For R = 1 To UBound(arrB, 1)
arrB(R, 1) = """" & arrB(R, 1) & """"
Next R
Intersect(ActiveSheet.UsedRange, [B:B]).Value = arrB

End Sub

So, why the leading zeros are not in my CSV file, and how to get them back?

The line which I use to get the leading zeros is:

Selection.NumberFormat = "[>9999]000000;General"

And this is because the only codes which have a leading zero are 6-digits long. Could I maybe add a single ' to the beginning of each cell in column A to make them text, and thus keep the leading zero?

To confirm, the column which contains the product codes is column A.

COUNTIF Ignores Leading Zero's

Nov 12, 2009

I have two, technically unique text values, with leading zeros, countif is including them in the count for each.

D17 = 01234
D18 = 1234

formula in column "C"
=IF(D17<>"",COUNTIF('Part Numbers'!B:B,D17),"")
=IF(D18<>"",COUNTIF('Part Numbers'!B:B,D18),"")

both countif's are resulting in 2, whereas they should be 1 since they are textually unique. The cells themselves, on both the source and counting side are formatted as text.

Add Leading Zero To Month And Day After Split

Jan 5, 2010

I'm trying to finish up a little program, but am stuck on getting date values from excel over to a another front end system correctly. The issue is pretty basic - I have a value I call "fulldate" which, for example is "1/5/2010"

I have to move each element of the date to this other system, but if I don't add the 0 before the month and day, it gets pushed over incorrectly (this other front end has three fields which accept: mm dd yyyy. BUT, if one character is entred into the mm field, you need to TAB to get to the dd field. If you enter TWO characters, you CANNOT tab to get there (you'd end up in the yyyy field).

So, all I really need to do is take the value "1/5/2010" and end up with three variables of consistent lengths.

Month = 2 characters
Day = 2 characters
Year = 2 characters

Here's what I'm trying tu use.. .but Day1 = 1, not 01. I've tried using format, but it's just not working how I'd expect.

5 Digits Per Cell Leading With 0s

Jun 4, 2014

I have pasted over 1300 numbers in a list, all of which need to have 5 digits. However, when I pasted the 5 digit number (ie 00003) into the cell, it omits the leading 0's.

Is there any way to get these numbers back to having 5 digits....and if it omitted the 0's, can I put them back all in one fell swoop?
