Remove Trailing Spaces?

Sep 18, 2013

I have a column of data in which each cell contains a line of text. Each line of text has spaces after the letters end and there doesn't seem to be a consistent number of trailing spaces.

I can clean up the data using the TRIM function but is it possible to use the TEXT TO COLUMNS functionality?

Producing Trailing Zero In MsgBox

Nov 23, 2007

I would like to use the following code to produce a message with two numbers in it, both showing an exact golf handicap to one decimal point. If a number is exactly 6 I want it to show as 6.0.

All works well for the number I'm collecting from the user and storing in newh. But I can't retain/produce the trailing zero from oldh which is formatted in the spreadsheet as Custom 0.0.

Adding Trailing Zeroes

Dec 29, 2009

I need a macro to do a comparison between two spreadsheets, and one part of it is throwing me, as I need to compare apples to oranges. Here's the situation:

Sheet A has the data noted like this:
PAC
11000
11100
11500, etc.

All data should have 5 digits, and my numbers range from 11000 to 87028, though quite a few are skipped.

Sheet B has data like this:
PAC
110
110-CBS
11000
11100-ING
112
11500-L

How can I change sheet B to:
1) Drop off the dash and anything following?
2) Add trailing zeroes to make sure all numbers are 5 characters in length?

Remove Trailing Letter

Oct 12, 2008

I have a set of data with trailing Y in certain cells.

Instead of the replace function in Excel, is there another way of removing the "Y" in that cell and storing it another cell while keeping the numbers before the Y.

i've created another column to determine which cells has Y as the right most character by using =IF(RIGHT(F2,1)="Y","Y","")

So for example, I want to remove the Y from say Cell A2 and store it in say cell A3 while still keeping the value 8624.46 in A2

Cell A2 = 8624.46Y

Remove Trailing Spaces

Oct 29, 2006

I have written a function which works in the same way as the concatenate formula but where required it uses an underscore to make up the length (14 Characters) of the result. I seem however to have hit a minor snag when users input trailing spaces. I thought I could use trim to eliminate them but it doesnt seem to be working

Function HypCon(CorpAcct, Subdiv)

Dim n, i, iLen, iLen2 As Integer
Dim sCorpAcct, sSubdiv As String
Dim iLen3, iLen4 As Integer
iLen = Len(Trim(CorpAcct))
iLen2 = 7
iLen3 = Len(Trim(Subdiv))
iLen4 = 5..............

Remove Trailing Commas

Mar 15, 2008

Removing Trailing Commas

I have a list (general ledger) GL codes with trailing commas

Example:
123456789,123456722,123789456,,,,,

When I try to use “replace” and replace the multiple commas with nothing it turns my gl codes into a scientific number (1.23456789123456E+26), but my cell is formatted to text.

The other problem is for numbers with a single trailing comma, it would also remove the commas between the GL codes

Is there a function that removes trailing commas, or commas that are not followed by numbers?

Keep Trailing Zeros If In Formula Result

Jan 9, 2014

I'm attempting to create a spreadsheet to calculate various things at my work, however I'm running into a problem that I can't solve. In one cell, I have a formula that returns an value to two significant figures. The number of decimal points that this value has is then used at various points throughout the sheet to truncate/round/etc. However, if the first value has a trailing zero as the second significant figure (ex. 0.20), that trailing zero is dropped. This creates problems since downstream calculations are then truncating to an incorrect number of decimal points. How to retain this trailing zero IF the formula results in one?

Removing Preceeding And Trailing Characters

Feb 27, 2009

I am trying to create a CSV file to import all of our workers into a payroll software. Unfortunately the list of workers that I have been given to work with has a first and a last name together in one cell. I need to split them into separate cells so the data ends up in the right field in our software. By importing external data and separating the names with the comma as a delimiter, I have ended up with the first name in one cell and the second in another, which is exactly what I need. However, this process also ends up putting a quotation mark in front of the first names in the cells in column A, and a quotation mark after the second name in the cells in column B.

I remember to removing trailing spaces with a macro once, and I am hoping the same theory can be applied to make two macros - one to remove preceding quotation marks, and one to remove trailing quotation marks. The only trouble is, I know no VBA whatsoever, and don't even know how to make a macro unfortunately. Would someone mind letting me know if what I need is possible, and then - literally step by basic step - explain how to make a macro and provide the code to paste into it?

Delete Leading And Trailing Periods

Jun 4, 2009

I have a spreadsheet with numbers of various lengths.

Sometimes they are preceded with a period and have one at the end as well.

Examples: of their present state

.11110000.111111.000000.

111111.1111111.000000.

100000.000000.0000.110001.

Examples: of desired state

10000.111111.000000

111111.1111111.000000

100000.000000.0000.110001

Is their a way I can create a new column and insert a formula, then drag it down so that it will delete the first or last character, if the character is a period?

Trailing Covariance With INDIRECT Function

I have a sheet that has consecutive dates in column A, from newest to oldest. I column B I have some stock returns. In column C I have some other stock returns. In D1, I want the covariance of the 2 stocks over the past x days (i.e. covar(B1:Bx,C1:Cx)). In D2, I want the covariance over x days as well, but only up to the date in A2 (so, covar(B2:B(x+1),C2:C(x+1))).

Concatenate And Retain Trailing Zeros

I cant seem to figure out how to concatenate data from two cells into one cell and retain trailing zeros. If Cell A1 has ".0000" and cell A2 has ".0005" then I want cell A3 to show:
".0000-.0005".

I get "0-.0005" on my attempts. Alos, how do I make the value an actual number and not a formula?

Extract Trailing String Of Characters From A URL

Dec 23, 2009

I have a problem that I just don’t seem to have the brain power to solve right now. I have a list of websites and I need to extract all characters after the last “/” in the URL. URL example:.....

I have been using the find function in conjunction with LEN and RIGHT etc but the multiple instances of “/” is causing headaches for me. Also, the trailing string of characters that I want to extract can be both text or numeric and are of differing lenths.

Len Formula That Includes Trailing Zeros

Jun 25, 2007

I have seen a few posts that are close to this but not quite right. I have a situation where I need to do "=LEN..." formula that counts trailing zeros at the end of numbers (meaning zeros that are displayed at the end of a number but do not appear in the actual cell value).

example:
Cell E19 contains the actual value 4773.52, but it is displayed in currency format with FOUR digits so it displays as $4,773.5200.

The formula I am using is =LEN(MID(E19,FIND(".",E19)+1,4)). The result is 2, which means it does not include the last two trailing zeros in the LEN count.

Is there anyway to get it to include the trailing zeros so the result equals 4? Either w/formula, macro, or UDF?

Is weird I know, but I need to know how many decimal places (displayed, not actual) for many numbers on many sheets that I do not create myself.

Decimal Format With No Trailing Zeros

Jan 13, 2009

I need to never have a trailing zero be displayed but still have decimals displayed (we can use up to 3 digits for the example) Here's a list of test cases

Value______Display
1.234567___1.235
1.234______1.234
1.23_______1.23
1.230______1.23
1.2________1.2
1.200______1.2
1.0________1
1.000______1
1.020______1.02
1.0002_____1
0__________0
0.001______0.001
0.0001_____0

The only time I want to see a 0 is when the answer is 0 (or rounded to 0) or when 0 is required in the middle. This is for patient safety if you are curious. 2.0 when printed out or written by hand can be mistakenly read as "20" in the heat of things, thus 2.0 should be written/printed as "2" (no decimal on the end) not as "2." even, just "2"

Remove Leading And Trailing Spaces In A Cell?

Dec 5, 2013

Any easy way to remove all spaces from a cell, both leading and trailing? I find it hard to believe that Excel doesn't have this functionality. I don't particulary want to write a VBA script since I have never done it but if that's the only way, I'd love to know how to write it. I have looked everywhere but obviously not in the right places.

Character Length Formula - Add Trailing Spaces

Feb 11, 2013

Is there a fomula that can add trailing spaces. For example....I need a certain feild to be 11 Characters in length. So lets say in Column A, I have a bunch of different words:

House
Bird
Up
Down
Yes
No

I would like to put a formula in column B that takes my original text and adds blank spaces to the end of it until it's 11 Characters. So "House" in Column A would be "House " in column B.

Trim Leading And Trailing Spaces From Values

Jun 10, 2008

to trim leading and trailing spaces from values I'm getting from a For Next routine. I'm using c as my variable and Trim(c.value) as the operation.

There are other routines that search for the explicit string that's the result of the trimmed value and some can't be found because the trim as I'm using it isn't trimming.
