I am trying to search a string for the first instance of "#" and return everything to the left of it and right of the word "where".
Example String -
Where 11# is greater then 10#
I want to just return 11
11 is left of the # and right of "Where"
I am working with data where I need to extract a 10-digit number from a string. Where the 10-digit number is in the string varies, so I can't use a simple left/len combination. Here's an example below:
Something and email@me.com 1234567890 stuff thingsThe formula I am using now is this:
=MID(F4,MIN(FIND({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},F4&"0123456789")),10)
This finds the first number in a string and returns that number and the next 9 digits for a total of a 10-digit string (so it would return 1234567890). However, I run into an issue when I have a string that has numbers in the email address.
So this:
number in email123@me.com 1234567890 exampleWould return this:
123@me.comIs there a way to modify the formula above so that it searches for 10 consecutive numbers and not just the first number in a string?
I am looking for a piece of code and can locate the range of a specified string, and replace it with something else. For example, I need to find string "AA" and replace that with "BB", can this be achieved with VBA code?

I need it to search through the text string in that cell and find a certain word, and if it finds that word, retrn a value.

View 6 Replies View Related I am trying to do a sort of index match thing using VBA. What I am attempting to do is to use the prefix of a long number and try to find that exact prefix in a string array, and output that string array value. So this is what I have so far as a test:
[Code].....
So I can match the text exactly so if I put PREFIXB in cell A1 in this example, i will get the msg box saying "YES", but if I make it PREFIXB1231k4j3jj1kj32cj, it will display "NO". I want to get it so that PREFIXB will be displayed in the cell that I put the formula in. So if A1 = "PREFIX1AAA100CF" and cell B1 = "=ABC(A1)", cell B1 will display "PREFIX1AAA".
Now the thing is that these prefixes can have different lengths, but will never encompass the exact prefix of another. So if I had a prefix of: PRE1AB, I won't have a prefix of PRE1A.
how do return the cell address of a certain string?

I need to take out the number in the middle, from the period to the space. The number varies in length so just using the mid function doesn't work. Does anyone know how to modify the mid function to return all chars between the period and the space or is there some other function that may work?
not sure if an "IF" staement is appropriate?
I have 3 columns containing data:
column A has text in it,
example: A2="red", A3="green", A4="blue"
column B has 3 letter month in it and they could have repeats
example: B2="Jan", B3="Feb", B4="Jan"
C2="Jan"
in D2 list anything column A that matches C2
example: D2="red, blue"
Formula that will return a string of dates (in values so that I use the cell for additional formula).
For example:
A1 B1 C1:to whatever cell needed, to be autofilled with day, date, month, year, weekdays only.

I have over a 1000 records broken down by Leaders of which each is roughly 50 records. in those records, answers are either : 4 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours or 48 hours. I need to have a formula return of the 4 choices, which had the greatest value.
I want a formula or function that will return a count value if a cell contains a string rather than returning a value if the cell equals a value. For example, =COUNTIF(A$1:A$19703,F1) returns a value to cells in column G if the value in column F equals any exactly matching value in A. I need a formula that works like the filter option "contains" so that if any cells in col A merely contain a string rather than exactly match or equal a string from column F I can get a count value returned.

Is there a better, more simple way to return the string value for a column from it's number reference?
I have the following formula that returns the most frequently occuring string in a range. what I would like to do is return the 2nd, 3rd 4th and 5th most common occourance as well. I am not sure if I can do this by adjusting this formula or whether that would be a completely diffent formula or worst case senario it is not possible at all.
=INDEX(B2:B1537,MATCH(MAX(COUNTIF(B2:B1537,B2:B1537)),COUNTIF(B2:B1537,B2:B1537),0))
obviously this is an array.
Anyone know how to do this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedSay I have a table like this:
Value 1---Value 2---Name

I have multiple automatically updating data sets and I need to extract certain data to perform calculations on, this is the format of the data
SPLIT AB H 2B 3B
HOME 20 6 1 0
AWAY 20 7 2 0
SPLIT R HR RBI
HOME 2 0 1
AWAY 3 1 4
basically, what I need is to extract the data for home and away, and put them each on one line, no problem if this is always the format, but there are other lines of data that I don't need thrown in there at times which shift the data up or down
a simple vlookup will extract the first occurance of home, but I need another formula to extract the second occurance so I can have them all on one line and have the data as:
SPLIT AB H 2B 3B R HR RBI
HOME 20 6 1 0 2 0 1
AWAY 20 7 2 0 3 1 4
Basically I have a string of dates, I want to get the max of the values that are before a specific date and return the header. Look at the file I provide for better understanding.

I'm trying to come up with a VBA function that would return cell values based on another cell value.
I can do this by comparing a range (column of cells) with the cell value to match and then return the value of the cell next to it.
For instance,
The function should search a column for partial text, as follows:
TS ID
PDT ID
TS 1.1
PDT 1
TS 1.2
PDT 2
TS 1.3
PDT 3
TS 2.1
PDT 4
TS 2.2
PDT 5
TS 3.1
PDT 6
TS 3.2
PDT 7
In the above table, the function should for partial text and return string as follows:
TS covered
PDTs
TS 1.1, TS 1.2, TS 1.3
PDT 1, PDT 2, PDT 3
TS 2.1, TS 2.2
PDT 4, PDT 5
TS 3.1, TS 3.2
PDT 6, PDT 7
So basically I am searching for partial text TS 1. and so on
I am trying to use ADO via VB6 to find a specific input in row A of my excel sheet.
I then want it to return the Column and Row to me separately.
I have a code I already use for returning specific values from cells:

SheetName As String, RangeAddress As String) As Variant
Dim conn As Object, rs As Object, SQL As String
Set conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")

Now I want something like this I can use as a function, but it obviously needs tweaks.
I'm using excel 2003 and I have have a dynamic string of data separated by 19 commas ",". I think 19 (the # of commas) is one of the few fix numbers...
What I'd like to do is from Right2Left return the 5 characters immediately to the right of (before) the 11th "," comma (i.e. 22.59 for the 1st string on Excel Cell A2) OR from the Left2Right return the 5 characters immediately after the 9th comma "," comma, which is also 22.59
Example of some of the strings I've been trying to work with...the list is much longer...but for example sake I've limited to 4...
I would like to search cells in column D for the partial string, "PIPE," (A full string may look like this: 'PIPE, 24"ODx0.375"WT API-5LX-65,ERW OR SMLS'). Then, if it's there, return the value "LF" in the corresponding cell in column C. If that string isn't found, then I'd like it to return "EA".
I know this seems pretty easy, but there's a small problem. The word "BENT PIPE," could be in Column D, in which case, I would want it to return "EA" instead of "LF".
In the attached excel, I will be putting a string (Which will be a result of another formula) and there will be a table in column A & B(Length of the table will vary).
What I need is a formula to search entire column B and get the file names which is having that string and also the corresponding path
Table E6 to F9 contains the desired result (The result wont be more than 3 at any point of time
