I need Excel to create Date's of Birth from following data in column A. If the data are 7 numbers long, I need to add a '0' to the start and have used the custom format of 0#######. This works fine but I need the data in column B to just display the first 4 digits. I have used =LEFT(A1,4) to do this, but it's not picking up the 0's which I've added.

My spreadsheet includes just a sample of the many rows of data however as you can see the VALUE function refuses to convert these text values to numbers. How these might be converted and why the VALUE function refuses to work in this case?

Is there any formula to write digits convert into word ?
Eg: - Can 1020 Convert into "One thousand twenty" with the help of any formula ?
Before I got this Function from your Form to convert digit to words.
Function is as following..right now i m getting as following:-
If i type 123..i m getting one Hundred twenty Three with this script as below.
But i want US Dollar one Hundred Twenty Three..
Can any one add the word "US Dollar" in this script.
Script..

How to convert any types format into Text with 5 digits in selection?
For instance, the content I select is "234", and I want it to convert to "00234". Just like the function "TEXT" in excel. How can I realize it promptly in VBA?
I have a spreadsheet and I have to fix zip codes everyday for the map to read them
Example if zip code is 66606-5648 map will read the zip code, but if its 66606 it will not read it. I need to macro that It will fix the zip code form 66606 to 66606-5648 the zip code doesn’t have to have the correct last four digits just any last four digit I attach a sample of the file.
I'm creating a look up function for the staff where you enter in the zip code, and it returns a series of answers (the state the zip code is attached to, the shipping code to use for regular shipping, next day air, and IF it is available for that zip code, the codes to use for Saturday shipping).
My problem is the fact that I'm looking up zipcodes. I have the cells, both the one where you enter in the zipcode to look up AND the entire column of the 29,000+ zipcodes formatted as "zipcode". However the cell where you enter in the zipcode.. it shows the "0" in the cell, but Excel thinks it's four numbers.. it's not recognizing the "0" in the function line. This means Vlookup is trying to find a 4 digit number, and not the 5 digit one I am asking it to, thus I get #N/A as a result for any zip code starting with "0". Every zipcode that starts with 1 or higher looks up just fine.
I have it set as FALSE so it will return the #N/A when you enter in a nonshippable zipcode, or one that doesn't exist.
If I change to TEXT, then it will not look up anything past "0" in the list, so all answers higher that 070xx (new jersey) come back as #N/A
I'd really like to have just 1 look up, not two, one for Zipcodes starting in "0" and one for zipcodes starting with "1-9". Does anyone know what I can do here? I've tried combinations, but am I just missing something? I'd rather not go back and just drop the 0 in the lookup column of the zipcodes to make this work.. I spent hours reformatting this whole column to show right int he first place.
I am trying to create a unique sample code by putting together the values of other cells that a user will input. It's all working well apart from the last part, where I am trying to include a decimal number. I want the decimal number to appear without the central "." and in a four digit format. e.g. 2.5 would appear as 0250, 14.25 would appear as 1425. This is the formlua I am using currently:
=IF(ISBLANK(B4),"",IF(LEFT(C4,1)="w",(B4&"-"&TEXT(F4,"YYMMDD")&C4&TEXT(G4,"HHMM")),(B4&"-"&TEXT(F4,"YYMMDD")&C4&LEFT(TEXT(H4,"00"),2)&RIGHT(TEXT(H4,"00"),2))))
However, where the value of H4 is 2.5, I am getting a result of 0303 (I've put this part in bold). I have attached a small spreadsheet to aid understanding.
i need to format my numbers in the following format
10,00,000.00
the first three digits will be separated and then subsequently 2 digits
I have the following working great, but would like to see it refine a little, as the data vlookup is 6 digits, but i only needs the last 4 digits is enough for me to work, my question is how do i go about adding that to the following function i have implemented and working fine.
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(B4,' cmfs01home$peter[tracker data 4-25-14-a.xlsx]ControlSheet'!$B$2:$F$301,4,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP(B4,' cmfs01home$peter[tracker data 4-25-14-a.xlsx]ControlSheet'!$B$2:$F$301,4,FALSE)
The government was just kind enough to send me some data I asked for in the form of a spreadsheet. Came in a Yahoo email. Document was blahblah.xls
I downloaded it.
Clicked and Excel opened it without any error messages.
What I see is one white bar in the spreadsheet section. It has three sections where you would have three columns.
On the left it says F279, which I take to be the cell address.
Then to the right of that there's a sort of elongated blue button with 'fx' written on it and a dot at the left end that I can use to grasp it and slide it left and right.
To the right of that it says 6169, which is the content of some cell.
Hover over a couple of these things and it says 'name box' and 'formula bar' at different times (sometimes I can't get it to do it.)
There's data there. I can't do it now but somehow the first time I opened it I was able to scroll one or the other column (i.e. one at a time only) up and down and see there was content there.
Is this thing fixable or should I get back to them and ask for a rerun? I would delete this is I could but it doesn't seem to offer that choice.
Did a 'print preview' and after that it came up in normal view. Well, nearly, it was down at the bottom of the screen but I was able to drag it up and now I've got it.
I often download data from various web sites - this is data that is displayed on a web page in tabular format, and often consists of hundreds of lines. I typcally Select All, then Copy, then go to a blank spreadsheet and Paste. After a bit of reformatting, I'm usually in good shape. The problem is, that sometimes the contents of a cell might have been "5-2" (without the quotes), and it comes through on Excel as "May 2". Without proofing each cell, I can't just make the assumption that the original was "5-2" - it might have been "5-2-10" (but not a date).
The normal Paste Special options are not available when I do this, so I can't paste them in as values. I have tried formatting the worksheet at text prior to doing the copy but that does not work.
when i download the data to excel it is downloaded in some format i cannot use.

Report1 contain 3 columns as follows:
Column A - Invoice #
Column B - Invoice date
Column C - Invoice Amt
Report2 contain 5 columns as follows:
Column A - Invoice #
Column B - Ship Date
Column C - Check #
Column D - Amt Paid
Column E - Payment date
I tried to use the Vlookup function in Report 1 Column D to lookup the matching Invoice # in report 2 and bring in the corresponding Amt paid. It did not work and I assume that this is because of the formats in the downloaded files. I did try to change formats for the columns involved but this did not work. This function works fine if both files were setup in Excel, however in these downloaded files even though saved as excel workbooks, something prevents this function from working. I do know for a fact that the same invoice number does show up in both these files but the vlookup does not pull up the required Amt paid from Report 2.

I am editing a wine database which contains a vast amount of data, one column has the wine name and sometimes the vintage year in the begining or at the end of the cell. Sometimes the year is made of 2 digits (03, 05, ..) or 4 digits (1978, 2004, 2005, ...).
Is there a way to remove this vintage year form the string?
to make matters worse, there is often a single quote/apostrophe in front of the vintage year, which is driving me mad as 98% of the time it is one of these hidden ones that cannot be deleted using the find/replace function.
examples are like below:
De Wetshof Finesse/Lesca Cahrdonnay ‘07
De Wetshof Sauvignon Blanc ‘07
Lord Neethling Cabernet Franc 2002
Lord Neethling Pinotage ‘01
Bouchard Finlayson Tete de Cuvee Pinot Noir ‘07
Jacobsdal Pinotage 1994
Zondernaam Sauvignon Blanc 2007
Tokara Red
1976 St Emilion
03 Tokara rose
Plasir de Merle Cabernet Sauvignon ‘05
DuToitskloof Pinotage/Merlot/Ruby Cabernet
1999 Tradition Juracon 375ml
I have been searching the Internet for the past 2 days without luck on how to delete the end of string vintage year.
I have had some luck with the left side, as in:
=IF(ISERROR(VALUE(LEFT(B2,SEARCH(" ",B2)-1))),B2,MID(B2,SEARCH(" ",B2)+1,LEN(B2)))
As I am not an expert with Excel, I have no idea on how to use VBA (every time I have tried even basic things, I failed) nor even sure how the above funtion works (found it on another site).
I thought I could acheive my goal in two steps, first removing the left side vintage and use this partial result with the RIGHT equivalent funtion, but it simply is not working!

Does anyone have an idea on how to help with this?
Ideally I would love to cut the vintage year, whether 2 or 4 digit, whether on right or left of cell and paste it in another cell, so to avoid manually doing it.
However, this is surely too complicated to do, so iwould settle with just deleting the vintage year and manually typing the vintage in another cell.
I am trying to use vlookup function with web query data and some of the data has embeded characters I can not see and vlookup does not work (can not match even though numbers appear to be the same). I have attached a test file with the data and formula and a detailed explanation.
Found this ....
I have a problem with text to columns with data downloaded from our website. The address field is coming through with the whole address in a single cell with multiple rows. I have tried the following but all I get is the first row in the first colimn and the rest of the data:
Text to Columns, Delimited, Other and ALT-0010
Text to Columns, Delimited, Other and ALT-010
Text to Columns, Delimited, Other and ctrl-j
I have even created a macro to replace the hard returns with commas and then use comma as a delimiter but that still does the same.
I have attached a file with two of the records (1 tab for the original data and one with the commas)
Finally, I have tried this in both 2003 & 2010 and get the same issue in both.
Let me see if I can explain my question in an understandable fashion....
I have a table containing data for about 2000 ID numbers. Some of these numbers are unique and some are duplicates. I would like to convert the ID numbers into a consecutive list of integers while preserving the unique numbers. For example, if the first column of my table is currently:
ID#
18578
19644
19644
20247
20974
21361
21361
21419
I would like to change that to something like:
ID#
1
2
2
3
4
5
5
6
I need to know which records (i.e. which rows of data) are from the same ID# but want to remove the actual ID#.
I am not able to open any excel file which comes as attachment with mail.It shows the message "file is corrupt ".
However , once it is open from other computer, I can view the same in LAN system.
I'm working on a macro, where some of the action has to do with adding zeroes in front of numbers, so that every number gets the same amount of digits. 4 to be exact. This means that the number 1 is transformed to 0001. 12 -> 0012, and of course 123 will be 0123. You get the point. Every number gets 4 digits, and 0 is the filler.
I am a total newbie when it comes to these things, so my script consists of shameless cutting and pasting from other peoples works. This also means that I don't have the slightest clue of what to do when things aren't going my way.
Everything is going perfectly, except for one important thing: The macro treats numbers with decimals in a way I absolutely don't want it to. I want for example 12,3 to become 0012,3 -- but the macro insists on not changing it at all. I figured this happens because the comma (and the numbers behind it) are counted too. Therefore, a number like 12,3 already has four digits. But I want it to be 0012,3! This is making my head hurt.
My question is: Are there any way of making the program ignore the comma and all the other digits behind it? So that they are not counted. Or is there another way of dealing with this problem?
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?
How you can find the min with simpler ranges, but my equation doesn't work with what I've found so far. I want to skip the zeroes and blanks.
=IF(AC44>0,(MIN((FS13+FL13),(FS18+FL18),(FS23+FL23),(FS28+FL28),(FS$417+FL$417),
(FS$422+FL$422),(FS$427+FL$427),(FS$432+FL$432))) ,)
I wonder if you can help me in this question. I have a MIN function which calculates the smallest value in a list of percentages and then divides each percentage by the smallest in the list. It works fine until one of the percentages becomes zero with the resulting division-by-zero error. Do you think it is possible to make the MIN function to exclude all instances (there may be more than one zero) of zeroes from its calculation? I have attached the spreadsheet.
correct cacluation
130,00%1,20
225,00%1,00
325,00%1,00
445,00%1,80
messy calculation
10,00%#DIV/0!
225,00%#DIV/0!
325,00%#DIV/0!
445,00%#DIV/0!
I am trying to figure out a way to delete the zeroes using VBA codes .
There is a spreadsheeet that contains company code, account, amount1 and amount2. If both amount1 and amount2 are zero, the VBA code will delete the entire row automatically. I am thinking of the With Range feature, but how I would determine what is the lastrow of the spreadsheet? Also how I can find the first zero and then the second zero in the same row? I vaguely recalled the find function, but can't write out the codes.
I have a series of 29 categories, each with a value to make a bar graph. The values aren't large, and a large portion of them are zeroes, I'd say on average about 3/4 have a zero as the respective value. Is there a way to make the bar graph ignore the ones that have a zero value and not put them on? Since every week these numbers can change, I would prefer if the method didn't involve some kind of sorting to get the values that aren't zeroes seperate from the rest.
