I have a column of 3 letter codes (Righthand side) all differant ie BHP, CBA, NAB, WBC etc. (2000 of them) On the left I have the formula ie =MisData!VOLUME!BHP.ASX
Each formula should have the relevant code within it such as the BHP in the formula on the 2nd row should be CBA, the third formula should have NAB in it. right down the whole 2000 codes without doing it one by one. Now using the find & replace tool to do it one ny one
I'm currently doing a project which requires me to find and replace a large number of values.
ie. Column A Row 1 = 80099, Column A Row 2 = 554441, Column A Row 3 = Z5478, CAR4 = B89877 etc...
I need to replace these numbers with meaningful values and I have a reference table to tell me what these codes mean ie. 80099 = apple juice, 554441 = orange puree, Z5478 = pumpkin soup, B89877 = banana smoothie. The reference table is in a separate excel spreadsheet and is tabulated in two columns ie. Column A = "the code", Column B = "the value".
There are like 1000+ codes I need to find and replace which I know is going to kill me if I did it manually. How do I find and replace all the values?
I have a column titled PA that has several cells with numbers, like 141, 151, 161, 242, 251, 382 etc. Is there a way that I can replace all these numbers in the column using a vba code. For example, replacing all the numbers beginning with 1** to 1 and 2** to 2.
I wonder is there a way in excel to replace multiple words at once. To have like script where I had all words that need to be replaced and words replacing those. And just click the button and done? More specifically I'm translating some exports in xls and there are few words repeating over and over again in every document. So for example I need to replace word parfem for perfume like 500 times in one excel document atd. I think there has to be a easier way to replace those words at once.
In 2003 version, user could create a table of data, then go to Data, List and add more data at a later date. If other information was placed directly below the table, Excel would insert new rows when inserted table data approached the lower rows of information. It would not erase the information.
In Excel 2007, the List function no longer exists but was replaced by Tables. However, I cannot get the table to insert new blank rows when it approaches the additional information below the table.
Column A contains one numeric value in each row. Column B lists one person's name in each row.
Column E contains a distinct list of the names found in column B (no repeats), with one name in each row. Each row of column F contains one alpha ID that belongs to the adjacent name in column E.
I need to replace each name in column B with its respective alpha ID from column F, effectively pairing each numeric value in column A with an alpha ID from column F.
Have I stated my goal clearly enough? I could Find/Replace a few hundred times, but I thought there might be a better way using an Excel formula. I'm a beginner-intermediate user, and I clearly don't know enough about Excel to even ask about specific functions for this task.
1. I've written a few macros using MSExcel 2003 VBA that I've tested successfully on Office 2007, but with 2003 workbooks only. Since the filename extensions for Excel 2007 workbooks are different from those for 2003, what changes are required in my vba code to ensure that it will work with 2007 workbooks too?
2. Will changes to vba code be necessary even for changes in the operating system (e.g. Vista / Windows 7)? I have worked with my vba codes on Win XP only.
I have to combine multiple line items to make one representative single code but for the life of me have not been able to find a way to do it effectively. I have attached a sample file.
Bar codes would contain a part number and a quantity.

1st question: I have scanned them into excel, but how does the next scan get into the next cell? It is currently putting multiple scans into the same cell.
2nd question: Can the data be broken up into separate columns? (e.g. Column A = "Part Number", column B = "QTY") I know about text to columns, but I think I have to get the format right?)
I am using find and replace to change file names and ranges in vlookup formulas. The files are on a remote server and I don't want the Update Values dialog box to display.
Can I disable this before starting the find and replace?
Is there a formula where I can take a zip code, and for any zip codes that have the 4 digit zip code extension, to remove those 4 digits, and to add a zero to the beginning of any zip codes where the zero was cut off. Is there a formula I can run my zips through to do both of those tasks?
Despite setting the "Edit/Links/Startup Prompt/Don't display the alert and update links" option numerous times, my workbook still prompts me to update links every time I open it. The option seems to be set okay (it is preset whenever I go into the "Edit/Links/Startup Prompt" dialog), but it doesn't seem to affect the workbook's startup behaviour. The workbook contains a ComboBox control that is initialized with customer names from another workbook, which is included in the References for this main workbook.
I am using Excel 2003 (from Office Pro 2003) under Windows XP (SP1). I believe this used to work without the prompt when I was working on this app last fall (I'm not sure, as my memory of specific behaviours back that far is fuzzy). However, it has been persistently prompting ever since I started working on this app again this spring/summer. Was there perhaps a bad fix to Office 2003 (that I automatically applied) that broke this feature?
How to use VBA codes to automatically change parts of the formula? Example1: Change formula "=SUM(A$10:A$100)" into "=SUM(A$10:A$1000)"; Example2: Chage formula.........
I'm trying to convert various codes from one column of an excel spreadsheet into different codes in another column. I was able to accomplish this with "If" statements, however I'm only able to string together seven of these statements in one command. Is there a better way to add formulas for more than seven conversions? Below is a copy of what I've done so far with the seven converts:
I am creating a billing sheet that has a column where charges are coded (to determine what they are for) and I want a "Grand Total" for everything followed by a breakdown "Total" for things with the same code. Is there a way to set SUM code to grab all numbers next to codes?? (EX. Column A is Billing Code, column B is Cost in $$; I want a total at the bottom that takes the different amounts in column B based on the various information/codes from column A).
I have set up a forecasting module for my company, which I update on a weekly basis.
Basically, I centered my forecast on an 8 week average. Using all of the various equations in a regression, the 8 week series of data is used close to 500,000 times for each week’s forecast. What I am trying to do is move the 8 week series (A#:G#) and change it to the next set of cells (B#:H#) without having to do it using a filter and change all of the various instances of the occurrence. Because of the nature of the forecast, I will be "rolling" it forward every week, so to be able to do this all at once each week would save me a bunch of time. I tried using the Find/Replace fn by having it use the * symbol in place of the #...and this worked when I had it Find the data, but when I tried to use it to Replace the data, it reported an error?
I have series of companies and output ,some values of output are missed how can be replaced by the average of nearst two years values of output or replaced by the following or previous value of output,sample of my data is attached.
I want to be able to replace the bolded and underlined areas of this javascript i have pasted in a cell with the value located in another cell. This means that those numbers would be replaced by a similar thing located in another cell. how can this be done? The way I would think you would do this by defining that say =b8 (an example of where the data could be coming from is ann excel formula, but not sure how to do this ...
One of my friend send me a problem. I got frustrated and scold him lot to do work like this but then I tried to work on it. Although my Vb experience is not good enough.
The problem is this that we have different things written in cells in column A like this “SET-EDT SPRAY 3.4 OZ & BODY LOTION 3.4 OZ & TOILETRY BAG “ and in some cells “EDT SPRAY 1 OZ”
Now we want to replace value Oz with value Oz / (Value * 3.75) ml. the below example will clarify the situation: ...
What it does is to activate the desired worksheet, and for 3 different choices replace what's there with what I want to be there. I put this together a while back, and it's working fine, but I'm sure it can be cleaned up a bit. Any help would be appreciated.
I would like to set up a worksheet where once an ID number is scanned, the next cell over is populated with that person's name. (i.e. Johnny scans his ID 234567 and in the next cell, "Johnny Smith" is filled in. I have a worksheet with the ID numbers in one column and names in another, I just don't know how to get a second worksheet with a formula that will allow me to do that.
I need a formula that will replace a dollar amount with an X. In other words...I have 10,000 cels and half of them have dollar amounts in them...I would like to replace them with the letter X without having to manually do it...
I am a not too good programmer, but I construct chemotherapy regimens for my medical department. They are used to minimise the risk of wrong dosing to patients, etc. Every regimen is an .xlt file, and about a third of them (there are about 100) generate, in addition to pharmaceutical prescription, automatic letters to patients (for those regimens where patients administer oral dosing at home).
These patient-letters have the hospital's logo on them (the logo is a "shape").
However, the problem is that another hospital also wants to use my system. So I will have to replace all these logos with the other hospital's. I would like to do this in an automated way. I have received the other hospital's logo also as a shape.
I have already constructed a data-inserting macro in a separate file. This macro systematically opens each xlt file and replaces the text in key locations according to the file the macro is in (geographical names, etc.).
Is it possible to automatically replace the logo-shapes in a similar way, with these additional facts/wishes in mind:
1. There is always only one type of shape (a logo) in the xlt files.
2. Even though the shapes are exactly the same, it is possible the names are different.
3. The exact location for the shape is different in each xlt file, so I'd like the replacement to get the same top left coordinate as the one it replaces.
I have constructed 2 different files with the same data-inserting macro, each containing one of the logos (so I can change back to my own hospital) and geographic data. When the data-inserting macro is used, I'd like it to identify the shape in the data-inserting file (there's only one shape in this file), copy it, then identify the shape(s) in the present xlt file, and then replace these, in the exact same location.
can anybody write a macro code for the following: We want to have five values representing operative time in a row with a mean in the sixth position. The hard part is to get a macro that will allow us to put in a new value in the first column and have it shift the other values to the right and dump the existing fifth value and come up with a new mean.
I'm currently building a large spreadsheet which will require numeric codes to be within certain cells. At present these cells are filled with alphabetical codes and the person using them has little knowledge of the numbers, is there a simple way for them to type in the alphabetical code and it to then auto-replace it with the numberical?
