Cell Content > 255 Then Move "excess" To Row Below
Oct 1, 2009
I'm looking to combine a number of worksheets into a summary sheet .. but on some the narrative is more than the 255 characters. How can I , where this is the case, insert a row below.. say input "Continued" in column A and then copy the contents of the cell which is more than 255 to the cell immediately below it.. and maybe do this again where users input more than 510 characters.
Alternatively, is there a way of getting around the copy and paste values.. where it only inputs 255 ?
I want to enter a number 0 to 999 in cell A1 and when the enter key is pressed move the contents of cell A1 to A2 and A2 to A3, cascading down until A40. So after five numbers the first number I entered woul now have cascaded down to cell A5 ready to go into cell A6.
Would I have to use some kind of program or does excel have a command for this?
i have code like this to copy certain word in cell and place it at new sheet:
VB: Sub Foo()Dim i As Long, iMatches As Long Dim aTokens() As String: aTokens = Split("Accommodation", ",") For Each cell In Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C:C")
[Code].....
the problem is the cell source is not deleted. what line should i change in code above to move the result to new sheet and delete row source
I have got a cell or cells with certain number of Characters (Alphabetical or Numeric or Alphanumeric). I would like to remove the excess Characters in the Cell from the end.
Example: If a cell contains 234 characters, Excess characters (More than 200) to be removed from the end.
Any formula or Vba program in generic form, so that i can limit the number of Characters to as required.
I need VBA to remove more than 3 blank spaces after the city & replace them with a comma & one blank. For example:
All in one column AB starting with row 7 I have:
Johnson City (13 Blank Spaces) NC 75503 (1 to 3 spaces after state & is OK) Jacksonville (10 blank spaces) Fl 23854 Henderson (12 blank spaces) NH 28363 (12 blank spaces) etc
I need all in one column AC starting with row 7: Johnson City, NC 75503 (,space before state, same space after state ok) Jacksonville, FL 23854 Henderson, NH 28363 etc
I have a spreadsheet which contains 6000 rows where column A1 lists a name, B1 an address, C1 an amount and B2 the 4-digit zip code and place. Now I want to move the content of B2 to D1. I can't use offset because the spacing of the zipcode cell is not always the same.
At the moment I have 1 spreadsheet with 12 worksheets that I have to enter data into. I would rather enter all the data onto one sheet then have a macro move the data into the correct worksheet based on the contents of columns A and B.
The raw data will be entered into the worksheet "Data". Once complete, I would like the user to press a button and the macro to then identify from column A the suppliers name. If it is not one of the recognised suppliers, then it would move the row into the worksheet "one off". If it does recognise the supplier then it checks column B to see which of the two supplier's two worksheets it needs to copy it to, with the data entered into the correct column based on the column title (ie only the white columns).
I use this to read cell content, add some text/characters (ie. [ and ]) and change the properties of the complete cell
Sub COMMENT() Worksheets("DVD Lijssie").Activate If ActiveCell.Value 0 Then ' Change all in to ... ... ... ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value & " " & "]" & " " & "[" With ActiveCell.Font .Name = "Arial Narrow" .Size = 8 .ColorIndex = 16 End With End If End Sub HOW can I change this vba-code so it leave's the content of the cell like it is and add some content with the use of let's say TexBox1 and ONLY use different font properties for the newely added content?
Formula/macro/etc that would enable me to have content of a cell changed based on the content of another cell in the same row.
Example: cell in column D says "PSA" - so I would need the cell in column H for that same row to read "Radio"
I would need an entire sheet scanned to review for these occurrences and make the appropriate changes. I also would need the formula to be inclusive enough to scan for variations in column D cell content (PSA 1, PSA 2, etc).
I've got a spreadsheet that uses about 2200 rows and about 15 columns. However, when I try to insert a column, it freezes up the application. My assumption is that this is caused by the fact that there are in excess of 65,000 rows. When I try to highlight those 63,000 rows and delete them, the system freezes up as well.
These excess rows are unnecessary and I'm sure add to the file size.
For a table like the one below produced for the sake of example (actual is much much bigger) I want to make it list rows that are true for a certain column for a certain variable in the matrix. So for say water terrain, which types of activity can I do i.e. swimming. Or for Offroad the activites which I can't do i.e. Run and Swim.
ActivityWaterRoadOffroad Jog nym Run nyn Walk nyy Swim ynn y=yes n=no m=maybe
I have a large dataset with 21 columns and 3000 rows, but to keep it simple, the data looks more or less like the first dataset in the attached excel file.
This results in 3 curves (time vs force). However, there is excess data in there, I only need data as soon as the Force becomes positive (>0) untill the Force drops below 0.02 again (I consider that the end-point of my curve). So, this dataset would look like the second set in the excel file after the macro-manipulation.
I think one of the difficulties is making sure that the macro doesn't cut of my data right in the beginning, when the curve first crosses 0.02. In that case, you get the last dataset. And this is not what I want...
I hope I explained my problem well, if not, please let me know. So, is there anyone who knows how to do this?
By the way, is there anyway to insert small excel tables in this post? Cause I wasn't planning on having an attachment, but if I copy-paste the data in this post, than the formatting gets undone and it looks like there's no way to fix it...
I've exported some data from our finance system into Excel and now need to pivot it, problem is that there are 100k plus rows and therefore goes across more than 1 worksheet. Had a read through the forum and a number of topics about this but I'm a bit stuck. I've got as far as
1. Ungroup the 2 sheets, copied the row headers from sheet 1 to sheet 2 and then named the data in each sheet. I therefore have 2 identically arranged data ranges (albeit one is 65k rows the other 40k rows) named 'block1' and 'block2'
2. In a new workbook I've done
Data > Import External Data > New Database Query
3. I followed the wizard and slected Block1 as the table
4. In MSQuery I've edited the SQL to read
SELECT * from block1 union all select * from block2
I'm now stuck and have 2 issues
1 I'm only showing 8192 records is this a limitaion of MSQuery or has something gone wrong ?
i'm working with downloading data from our server. it downloads in excel 3.0 format, and the contents exceed the 65k cap by far.
now what i used to do for this when i had 2003 installed on my machine, i would open the 3.0 format file and convert it to 2003 format so i could import it into access, where i could move it into two 2003 xls files to manage by use of copy/paste from access's table to excel's spreadsheet. The 3.0 > 2003 conversion was necessary because if i try to import a 3.0 excel file into access 2003, it gives me a error that the file contains no data.
so here is my problem now. our office just updated to 2007. it appears that when you run the conversion option to 2007 format, OR just save as... and save it to a new xlsx, it stripps off the remaining data that overstacks the 3.0 format file. everything above row 65536 is lost (and this paticular file has 77k+ rows).
so i decided... "ok then i'll do it my old way". i saved it into 2003 format instead, just as i used to, and imported it into access, and guess what? it stripps it in that format too now! (the majesty of upgrades... buggs to year 2010).
so my question is... how do i get this 3.0 overstacked file format converted to xlsx format retaining ALL 77k rows in a single sheet, or how do i strip it into 2 separate xls 2003 format files? either way will work, i just need all my data so i can work with it.
I am trying to write a function that sums the values in a range in excess of 2. For example, if the cell is 3 add 1, if it is 5 add 3 etc.
Here is what i have so far, it compiles with no bugs, but it does not work in my worksheet. I wrote it in Sheet 1 (VBA) of the worksheet i am using it in.
I have obtained the following data which I need to put into a spreadsheet to import into an accounts program. I can't change the way I get the data which is as follow
Hrs worked Rate 05:55:00£30.00/Hour 07:40:00£21.00/Hour 05:45:00£30.00/Hour
What I need to have is 5.92 30.00 7.67 21.00 5.75 30.00 ie the time format in decimal and loose all the unnecessary symbols etc for the rate
I am using VBA to create a word document (.docx). This word document contains plain text content controls as well as picture content controls. I then use VBA to automatically select a picture based on the code below
Code: Set oCC = Word.ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("TabPic").Item(1) On Error GoTo TabErrorHandler oCC.Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture Filename:="X:XFERANDREW-TDCD " & LblVL &
[Code].....
After the document has been closed down I try to open it again and I am told "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents."
When I click details it says "Unspecified error" and "Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 0"
If I click ok it says "Word found unreadable content in "". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you turst the source of this document, click Yes.
Clicking Yes opens the document with all the contents and it is now renamed to Document 1. If I click no it does not open.
How to determine the correct formula for this requirement?
Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.
I am working on developing QR Codes using some MATLAB code and it would be really convenient if I could create an excel program which changed the background color of a cell containing a 1 to black and a cell containing a 0 to white.
I am currently trying to create a spreadsheet whereby if I enter certain text in a cell in Column A on worksheet 1 that correlates with text in a cell in Column A on Worksheet 2, then the description in Column B in Worksheet 2 is entered into Column B on worksheet 1.
For example, if worksheet 2 has the following:
Column A Column B XXXX PRODUCT 1 YYYY PRODUCT 2
and I enter XXXX in column A on worksheet 1, I want Column B on worksheet 1 to automatically enter PRODUCT 1.
multiple search match and replace content in a different column so for example
new workbook (look up table) sku search1 search2
[Code]....
so something like where you compare two tables and find and replace based on another cell that matches in my sku.. more details would be if the table column aren't exactly matching but the column header and the row header would match and fill or replace in the correct/corresponding cell is there a macro or vba to do this job in excel?
I have the names of companies in one column, and the amount they owe in cells in the column beside them. I then have a second list of companies that is a subset of the first. Is there a formula that would place the amount they owe in teh corresponding cell adjacent to the compny in the second list? I've attached a sample workbook, Full Company List in column A, amount owing in B, trimmed down list in D and ideally I'd like the corresponding values in E.
I have 2 worksheets, let's call them "Sheet1" and "sheet2".
Sheet 1 has 2 columns (A, and B)
Ie. "Sheet1:"
Col A, Col B
Red Green Yes Blue Yellow Orange Yes
For each entry in Column "B" that has a "Yes" value, I need to copy the color value in column "A" into the next available empty cell in "Sheet2" in column A.
"Sheet2"
Col A, Col B
Red 3 Blue 5 Yellow 6
Final Result:
Col A, Col B
Red 3 Blue 5 Yellow 6 Green Orange
how to do this particular challenge? For Sheet2, I think I'll need a function to determine the first available blank cell in column A.
What I need to do is have a cell that will be say yellow until there is information put into this cell. The information could be in the format of text or numbers. The information would not always be the same so it would need to be yellow when there is no information in the cell and another colour or white when there is information in the cell.
I have a sheet that I fill out with customer data then print and start over with the next customer. This requires me to tab and delete through the sheet before starting the next entry and I am wondering if there is some way to auto clear the unlocked cells based on a single entry IE when we entered new data in the 1st field this would clear the unlocked cells and make them ready for new data?
I have a file consisting of two columns, called, "bom ref" and "material" I need to show the data as indicated in the file, headed required format required.
In effect where I have a 0, that is the material I need to show for every row with a bom ref. of 1,2 or 3, down as far as the next 0 but not including the 0, when I reach the next 0, the material is a new letter, and that letter needs to repeat down as far as the next 0, but not including the 0 and so on.
I need a macro or formula that can parse a column of data and if it finds a specific string of text ,then it changes another cell on that row to zero. It can have multiple text variables but all return the same value. For Example,
if artisan - matte - flat black artisan - matte brushed gold small - canvas - flat black
is found in a longer string of text
then it should change another cell on the same row to have a value of 0. Also i should mention that i need it to loop as it will be parsing through potentially thousands of rows.
I have a cell A1 in sheet2 linked cell A1 in sheet1 (simply A1='sheet1'!A1). A1 in sheet1 is a data validation drop down menu.
I want to clear the content of A2 in sheet 2 everytime the content of A1 in sheet2 changes/is updated. That is everytime the value of A1 in sheet1 is changed using the drop down menu.
I tried using a Worksheet_Change event macro (which I do not fully understand) but it won't work with a cell that updates from a calculation. It also doesn't work if triggered from a cell from another worksheet (I tried linking it to cell A1 on sheet1 in this case).
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub Range("A2").ClearContents End Sub
Any simple solution to clear the content of cell A2 in sheet2 when A1 in sheet2 updates?
