I've found several posts but none seem to peform this varying function:
EX12345678....Result in Col B: "EX" and Result in Col C: "12345678"
RTZZ4567.......Result in Col B: "RTZZ" and Result in Col C: "4567"
The problem with the formulas I've got specifically define - pulling let's say LEFT, 2 characters.....when, I may need it to pull 2 or 3 or 4. I found something that's smart enough to look for ONLY ALPHA and strip those out and place them into one column. =LEFT(A1,MIN( FIND({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},A1&"0123456789"))-1)
* I need something that's smart enough to look for ONLY NUMERIC. no matter how long the string is...and place those in Column C (like I mention in the example at the top).

Is there a VBA command to get the letters, instead of the numbers, of the column of a selected cell?
I have to letter a list whihc means setting up a loop using character codes.
I may have to go into double letters so I am working on how I would set up the loop for if and when it gets past 90 and starts on double letters. so far the highest is the letter "U"
of course the easiest would be to pick up a column value as a letter
NT values do not get a number
A_____ _____NT###
B_____1_______C####
C_____2_______RMK###
D____ _______NT####
i am guessing the loop might involve some arithmetic test between the count and the character set 65-90. or maybe a mod thing.

Tallying entires from a PDF into excel. Such that
c=1000
d=15000
e=50000
f=100000
g=250000
h=500000
i=1000000
j=5000000
k=2500000
l=50000000
In a cell I would like to type =c+d+c for example and have it say 17,000 rather then me having to type in =1000+15000+1000.

I have a few columns of letters (ranging from A to Z) - onyl one letter per cell. I need to be able to deduct them such that they result in a numeric difference (ie D-B=2, D-A=3). Is there any way this can be done in VBA? (The actual columns are in a word table, so would be great if there was a VBA way to do this, not an excel function).

I'd like a function that converts a letter to a numerical value and returns a mean score for those values over a range. The values for each letter are:
A*100
A90
B70
C50
D40
E30
F20
G10
U0
So in the range G4:AB4 there could be 3 letters (G4:I4)
A* F E - their numerical equivalents in the table above = 100 + 20 + 30 = 150. The mean score for this range and expected output = 50 (150/3)
I have enclosed a sample spreadsheet. The range of grades that needs calculating is G4:AB4. Expected output should be in AC4.

I'm working on a function that will sum a row of cells containing letters and numbers. I am currently using :
=SUMPRODUCT((0&SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(B5:S5,"T",""),"TP",""),"TPE",""),"P",""))+0) as my base.
Right now the formula will work with T, TP, and P; however as soon as I type TPE I get #value.
Either way you get the point of what I am trying to do, however my cells can contain any one of the following combinations:
T,TP,TPE
P,PE,
E

I am a school teacher trying to adjust my tracking sheet to calculate pupils levels. I am looking for 2 potential formulas that will do the following.
1 - In cell AE I would like to generate a formula that will take the data entered in cells J:5, L:5, N:5, P:5, R:5, T:5, V:5, X:5, Z:5, AB:5 and AD:5 and give an average level.
2 - In cell AH is it possible to generate a formula that will calculate how many levels of progress the pupils are making - In other words I need Cell I to be calculated against cell J to see how much progress the pupils are making - for example if in cell I:5, a pupil is was given a 3a, and then in cell J:5 is given a 4b, they will have made 2 sub levels of progress. As well as this, can that progress then be averaged out across cells I:5, K:5, L:5, M:5, O:5, Q:5, S:5, U:5, W:5, Y:5, AA:5 and AC:5 to give an overall number of of levels of progress? An then..... can I colour co-ordinate the cell so that if the pupils are making 3 or more sub levels of progress it turns green, 2 sub levels orange and 1 sub level red?
Levels work like this
3c
3b
3a
4c
4b
4a
5c
5b
5a and so on

I have a sheet which basically does this:
If A9 is blank, return 'A9', if not, return 'blank'. (to identify which cells are populated on another sheet)
It does this from A9 to X9.
Then in A10, if A9 says 'A9', just return 'A'.
So the end result has the entire A10 Row with all the letters that aren't blank. In my sheet, I have the following:
A10 = A
K10 = K
N10 = N
P10 = P
Q10 = Q
What I want is to have cell A11 to return (for example) = A, K, N, P, Q - as they are the only values found.
Is that possible without using a macro?
