Excel 2010 :: Custom List Deletion Appears To Be Corrupting File?
Nov 13, 2013We are in the process of switching from running Excel 2007 under Windows XP to running Excel 2010 under Windows 7. Most of my Excel reports are not having any issues. However, I have several macros that cause Excel to crash when they go to save the file. Through trial & error, I have found that the problem seems to occur after deleting custom lists that were created earlier in the macro. Here's the pertinent code:
' Declare Variables
Dim VarListNum1
Dim VarListNum2
Dim VarListNum3
[Code]....
When I execute the macro line-by-line, it is creating & deleting the custom lists as expected. However, if I try to save the file after any of the custom lists have been created, Excel crashes. Has something changed in Excel 2010?
Combining List Of Words Into New Words, Conjugation
Feb 15, 2007I have 4-5 separate lists of words/letters and I would like to combine them in a certain order but creating all possible combinations resulting a new word. It's like a conjugation tool for verbs. For example if List 1 = be/el/ki/meg; List 2= m List3=e/é; List4= gy/" "; List 5=" "/ek/sz/nnek So the output has to be (if the order is List1+List2+List3+List4+List5)= bemegy/bemegyek/bemegysz/bemesz/bemész/elmegy/elmennek/ ..... and all possible combinations.
Preferentially I would like to automate it in a way that it straight outputs into MS Access. Also can it be automated that it reads the list from a file (database)?
(Also can it recognize the word by letters? Because the basic word that I would load the program= List2+List3+List4)
Restrict Combobox Selection To List Only But Allow Deletion
Feb 14, 2008I have the following code which works but after the user gets an initial error says that they have to enter what is a ComboBox choice they get a second error when they press backspace to delete their entry. Is there a way to just give them the first error but not an error when they press backspace to erase their mistake in the form?
This checks the user input...
Private Sub Combobox5_Change()
If ComboBox5.ListIndex < 0 Then
MsgBox "Please Only Pick From The List. Use Admin Page to Add More to the List", vbCritical, "Error"
End If
End Sub ...........
Excel 2003 :: VBA Macro For Data Movement / Deletion
Jun 10, 2014So essentially I need a VBA Macro code for Excel 2003 that can take raw data that is input every month via a text document and move it to the next sheet in the workbook. This data is essentially broken down by a "platform" in the raw data section ("P") with monthly totals for each month but it is broken down by platform in total which goes in descending monthly order on the "dat" tabs (which is the final place for the data).
So what needs to happen is the data for the last two years must go from the "P" tab to the "PDat" tab under the correct platform and the correct spot for the newest month. The data that is input each month is in the same format month to month, just starting two rows down from the last month.
At the end of two years, the oldest year of data must be deleted and the other data moved up to the vacant area so that the sheet never grows too large (i.e., at the end of this year 2012 will be deleted and all the data will need to get moved up).
Attached is a sample data workbook.
How To Count Unique Words In A List
Sep 30, 2008Usually it's to count for one unique word in a cell. But what if I have 2 or more unique word in a cell and need to be counted for?
for example

Comparing A List Of Words Within A Range
May 1, 2006I've got a list in "column A" of around 6000 lines which contains key words which I want to extract to "Column b" if It matches but it can match on more than one word .
e.g
List
Six Nations Ireland v England
FA cup Semi Final Chelsea v Liverpool @ Old Trafford
Criteria Sample
Ireland
England
Chelsea
Liverpool
Ideally I would like to extract the first Town/Country as this is where the event is held unless the @ symbol is used then it's the last Toen/Country as in the FA cup example.
Create X Element List From X Words
May 30, 2008A friend of mine is playing a computer game, and he has to create 50 different potions to obtain her next goal. She would like to know if it's possible with excel to generate a list of potions based on 7 different elements. Here are the 7 elements : Black orchid, Cactus, Lotus, Pitcher plant, Rose, Tiger lily
Every elements could be repeated to generate one potion.
Therefore, the following combinations are valid :
Cactus - Cactus - Cactus
Cactus - Rose - Cactus
Cactus - Cactus - Rose
Cactus - Rose- Rose
As long as there are no more than 3 elements, it's ok. I'm not looking for the precise coding, I just need to be pushed in the right direction...
Checking Text In Cells Against List Of Possible Words?
Dec 27, 2013I'm trying to make a game where from a choice of 16 words the contestant has to choose four of those words that, when another word is placed before or after each word it makes a phrase.
e.g From this list of 16 words
albert
bell
[Code]....
choosing bell, bottle, print, stocking can all have BLUE placed before them to make bluebottle, blueprint etc. That would be the correct answer. Choosing their four words would be from a drop down list of all 16 words, separate cell for each list options/chosen answer. bell bottle printstockingCORRECT
There would be 4 rows in total for 4 different answers to be made from the 16 words on offer. I have tried everything to get it to work in the 5th cell but it's difficult.

Finding All Unique Combinations Of List Of Words?
Dec 6, 2011I have 15 different words that I want to order in as many ways as possible, but only 3 at a time.
So let's say the words are:
cat
dog
elf
clown
monkey
rock
bananas
(etc)
then I want a list that has all of these possible combinations:
cat dog elf
cat dog clown
cat dog monkey
cat dog rock
cat dog bananas
cat elf clown
cat elf monkey
(etc)
until all are listed. I understand there is a huge number, I don't mind having a couple of thousand as long as they are all genuinely unique.
I CAN have elf dog cat, elf cat dog, dog elf cat later on ... it's just the order that needs to be unique not the words in the phrase.
Dropdown List - AutoFilter With First Few Words Typed
Jan 3, 2013it is possible to have a drop down list (Cell A1) where you can type in the first few letters of a word and have the drop down list go to the the words that begin with those first few letters (searching in column 10) instead of having to scroll down the entire list to find the word / item you are looking for.
I ask since the drop down list may end up having up to 1000 words in it.
Replace Words In Cell Matching Those In A List
May 21, 2009Im hoping there is an Excel Formula (not VBA Code) solution to this problem.
I understand how to use the Substitute command in Excel, but I would like to be able to provide a list of words and have the Substitute command use that list to replace every occurrence within a given cell with a blank ("").
The twist to this is, that the List of Words will be Dynamic, and thus the formula will need to account for that.
NOTE: the formula should NOT replace parts of words, e.g., if the List Word is "can" and the cell to be evaluated contains "candle" the formula should NOT replace the "can" in "candle" with "". Only whole word matches should be replaced.
Find List And Count All Words Within A Text String?
Feb 26, 2014I have uploaded my spreadsheet.
I have a column of text strings on Sheet1, Column A, which I need to check for the presence of keywords listed on Sheet2, Column A
So if any word from the keyword list on Sheet2, Column A is found in, say, cell A2 of Sheet1, the cell to its right (B1) should have a formula to display the count of keywords found in A2. I also would like to see each keyword identified either through a highlight or a list. I need the formula to NOT be case sensitive and the match does not have to be for whole words).
Find Common Words In Cells And Create New List
May 29, 2005I have a spreadsheet of part #'s, descriptions, manufacturer names, and manufacturer part #'s. (It's a list of the inventory in my warehouse). Each row contains information for just the item in that row. Row 2 references another part in my warehouse, row 3 yet another, and so on.
Many of the parts have more than one potential manufacturer and part #, (meaning that any of those manufacturer's part #'s are basically the same tool; just different brands. At one time we may get a shipment of one, at other times we may get a shipment of another). For example, a screwdriver may be listed like this:
Part # 1234 screwdriver, mfg Snap-On, part # 456, mfg Stanley, part # 789, mfg Mac Tool, part # 439.
Then further down the list, there may be another part listed like this:
Part # 9980 wrench, mfg Stanley, part #741, mfg Snap-On, part # 852, mfg Proto, part # 369.
If you can imagine that data across the cells of a spreadsheet row, notice how the mfg name 'Snap-On' was the first mfg name on the screwdriver, but it was listed as the 2nd mfg name on the wrench.
So, here's my question: I want to be able to group all of the items made by any one manufacturer together in a new list. If all of the manufacturer names were in the same column, I could simply sort the list by that column, but since I've got thousands of rows with the mfg name I'm looking for in different columns on different rows, I thought maybe a macro could search each row for the word I'm looking for, then if found, take the whole row and copy it to a new worksheet. So the end result would be, If I wanted to see all items of which Snap-On is an acceptable supplier, I could get a list of all potential Snap-On items grouped together.
I'm sorry this is so long. I may have over-worded this and it may not be too clear. I could email an example of the spreadsheet if anyone needed more info to figure out what I'm looking for and was willing to take a look at it.
Find/Count Most Common Words & Phrases In List
Jun 25, 2008I am attempting to take a very large list of keywords, and find the most common words and phrases within them. For example, if I had a list that said:
excel formulas
excel spreadsheet formulas
excel help
excel formulas help form
formulas for excel
I would like to come away knowing that "excel" and "formulas" are common words within the list.
Currently, I believe this can be accomplished by doing the following:
1. Break down each line into all of its possible combinations.This would mean that the line with "excel spreadsheet formulas" would return:
excel spreadsheet formulas
excel spreadsheet
spreadsheet formulas
excel
spreadsheet
formulas
2. Once the entire list is broken down into its many parts, use the pivot table feature of excel to determine how common each of the parts is within the entire data set.
So, my questions are these:
1. Do you believe this is the best way to solve my problem? If not, what would be the preferred method?
2. If this is the best method, what function or script would I use to accomplish the first step of breaking down the lines into their individual parts?

Return True / False If String Of Words Is Present In Another List?
Dec 5, 2013I have two lists, one that is 99,000 lines and the other is 150. I am trying to find out where the word(s) in the list of 150 is present in the list 99,000.
1st list of 99,000 is in Sheet1 A1-A99000 and the second list is in Sheet2 B1-B150.
The caveat is that in column A there is additional words in that cell so you can not do a simple vlookup, because there may or may not be an exact match.
I have been stuck for hours and the best i can get is to use the match function but it is not working because it is not exact. Last thing i want to do is use the CTRL F key to lookup all the words.

Excel Formula To Split Words With Characters Limit Per Cell?
Dec 6, 2010 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.
