Is there anyway of aligning part of a formula to a certain character limit (63)?
For example:
Aaaaaa(A1), bbbbbbb(B1), 1111111.00(C1)
Aaaa(A2), bbbb(B2), 11.00(C2)
to
Aaaaaa(A1), bbbbbbb(B1),____________1111111.00(C2)
Aaaa(A2), bbbb(B2),______________________11.00(C2)
I have a text box that is set to "=B1". B1 is a cell from an Access table import with memo format. The text memo is long, probably on average between 1000-2000 characters. I have set up the text box to automatically resize for the text, but the text stops at what I assume is 255 characters, even though cell B1 displays the entire memo.
How can I set it up so that this text box (or any other similar shape) displays the text and retains its resize/wrap property?
This is done in Excel 2010.
I'm adding some necessary code to the beginning and end of some cell contents in Format | Cells | Custom and I seem to be coming up against a character limit.
I'm using the phrase "!!<"@">!!" to add the code, but with some cell contents the result is ########### (but much longer), and I'm having to remove some of the text to make it work. The limit seems to be around 255 characters.
I'm trying to use the countif function to search a cell containing, say, 1000 alphanumeric characters.
For example, cell A1 contains the text...
"There needs to be an easier way to build worksheet formulas for 64 levels of nesting and 255 arguments to be meaningful. Perhaps a "Formula Composer" dialog box or something that allows you to build up a complex formula in parts and allows you to evaluate the partial formulas. When you're done, and the formula is displayed in the sheet, all of the parentheses would be automatically put in the correct places."
...and cell A2 contains the formula...
I am using the code below to rename worksheet tabs based on the value in cell B3 on each worksheet. I am getting a run time error attributed to the value in cell B3 exceeding 31 characters. This is the maximum number of characters a worksheet tab can support. some additional code to rename the worksheet tabs and trim the name when 31 character limit is reached? note I need to keep the value in cell B3 as it is but trim the worksheet tab name only.
Code:
For I = 1 To Sheets.Count
If Worksheets(I).Range("B3").Value "" Then
Sheets(I).Name = Worksheets(I).Range("B3").Value
Else:
Sheets(I).Name = "Default (" & I & ")"
End If

I'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

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn Userform1 I have several textbox and one commandbutton1. If I mouseclick on a textbox and click commandbutton1 the letters YES is entered in the texbox. To prevent double click entry into the same textbox I set the maximum length property at 3. However, setting the maximum length to 3 does not work. Subsequent commandbutton1 clicks will result in an infinite YES entries.
Is the maximum length property disabled when commandbutton entries are applied?
Currently using LEN to simply count 50 characters then it tells the user that they need to move onto the next line.
Is it possible with VBA that after 50 characters reached in the selected cell it forces the user into the next cell below and so on in a loop?
I have huge columns of data that can only be 30 characters long. I want to use a formula to split the column into two. The original column will have a character limit of 30, and should not cut words in half. If the Length will be more than 30 while including the entire last word of the cell, that word should be the first displayed in adjacent cell in the 2nd column.
The 2nd column can be any length.
I usually use a Text to Columns method, but dont know how to make it not cut off the words.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI need to work out a formula to calculate the “value over limit” in the following scenario:
Cell D11 contains a total balance (input manually)
Cell D1 is the total of cells E to H
Cell A1 contains the formula to calculate the % of Cell D1 against the balance in Cell D11
Cell B1 will used to input a credit limit which will either be blank or the value of the limit
In Cell C1 I need a formula that will return 0 or value over limit based on the following-
Formula to calculate the value over limit: If cell A1 >10% of Cell D11 return the value difference between 10% of Cell D11 and the value in Cell D1
example; cell D11 = £100,000 & cell D1 = £22,000 (cellA1 = 22%): 10% would be £10000 therefore, the result would be £12,000 over limit
However, the comparison also has to take account of Cell B1. If this contains a balance then this needs to be taken into account e.g. in the example shown, if cell B1 contained a balance of £5000 then the result would be £7000 over limit or if the figure was =>£12000 the result would be 0.
If the % in Cell A1 is <10% the value is always returned as zero in Cell C1 regardless of any balance in Cell B1.
I am trying to limit the format of data to all cells in a column to 2 letters followed by 6 digits. The letters and the numbers are not required to be the same, but the person entering can only enter in that format.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am in the process of creating a template in excel with certain restrictions on the information that can be added to it. I've hunted several sites and forums to try and find a solution but find it difficult to see the best ones for my project. The template is roughly made up of say 10 references to large boxes, each box can hold smaller boxes. The smaller boxes vary in size. For example the large box is 60 inches long smaller boxes vary between 20 inches and 40 inches, can excel be made to tell me an error if i try to put 2 x 40 boxes in columns refering to 1 of the larger boxes as it exceed the maximum length of 60 inches?

I am using vlookup to get a cell value from another sheet, but if the cell has "&" or "/" I need to substitue "&" and "/" with "and" so that the cell can be added later to a url.
i am using =VLOOKUP(a1,Sheet2!A1:W17968,6) to get the value of a1 in sheet 2 and return the value of column 6

I am suffering with split a long descriptions into 3 cells with criteria 1st cell not more than 30 characters, 2nd cell not more than characters and 3rd cell will locate the remaining characters there. I think this is quite easy if I use LEN/MID/RIGHT/LEFT formula. However, I wish the formula will smart enough to split word by word. refer to example below:-
"My lecturer replied, that i really did very bad in final, nothing's gonna change my plan."
If I use left(A1,30) formula, the result is "My lecturer replied, that i re"however, the word "really" is cut half way. I am finding the formula that split description to not more than 30 characters and won't cut my string and become incomplete word. Expected result should be 1st cell "My lecturer replied, that i", then "really did very bad in final," at 2nd cell.
Can I limit the text length in a cell that contains a formula? You may say "Limit the text length in the input cell". That can't be done because the formula in the resultant cell takes text from two other cells in addition to the input cell. I need to limit the overall text length to, let say, 50 characters.

I want to count the number of cells in column B that contain the start with the string US/IL. Here's the formula that I created, but it returns a value of 0 instead of 590.
Is there something I need to do differently when a cell value contains the / character in the string?
=SUM(COUNTIF(B5:B1830,"US/IL"))
Once I have the correct formula for the above, I want to write another formula on the row below that counts how many rows of this 590 value have a corresponding "Yes" value in Column M.
The first formula will sit in cell B1840
The second formula will sit in cell B1841
