Find Numeric Codes In A Column And Replace In Vba
Oct 18, 2007
I am using the following vba code to find numeric codes in a column and replace them with the same code along with descriptive text:
Range("Q:Q").Select
Selection.Replace What:="11", Replacement:="11 - GSA"
Selection.Replace What:="10", Replacement:="10 - NYS OGS"
Selection.Replace What:="1", Replacement:=" 1 - Dist Sale"
Selection.Replace What:="2", Replacement:=" 2 - Direct Sale"
Selection.Replace What:="3", Replacement:=" 3 - No Sale: Warranty Exchange"
The problem as you might already see is that when the replacement of "1" happens, Excel will replace the 1 in the 10 and 11. Of course I want to only replace the number 1. Is there a better way to code this operation?

I have an ad hoc txt file that I import into Excel and use text to columns. The problem is some of the amounts have an asterisk in it such as: 10,412 *
I tried to use the find and replace, but the "*" is considered a wildcard and instead of changing the field to just 10,412, it deletes the entire amount.
Is there a macro that I can use to get around this? The amounts are listed in column G & H

I have two sheets in my workbook: One containing names with French and other European characters, the other containing a list of ISO entities for these characters, like these:
à#224
á#225
â#226
ã#227
ä#228
å#229
æ#230
I need to replace these characters in Sheet 1 with the equivalent ISO entity from Sheet2 and print the value into the same cell in Sheet1.

I'm trying to convert various codes from one column of an excel spreadsheet into different codes in another column. I was able to accomplish this with "If" statements, however I'm only able to string together seven of these statements in one command. Is there a better way to add formulas for more than seven conversions? Below is a copy of what I've done so far with the seven converts:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("WARN",J2)),"Warning",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("PSSNAP",N2)),"Sales",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("WARN",L2)),"Warning",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("2699",L2)),"Warning",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("4004",L2)),"Warning",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("2036",L2)),"Warning",""))))))
I want to add about 15 more codes to convert within this formula but it's maxed out in the format I'm using.

I have taken over this spreadsheet for my work, and it is basically a statement in excel. What I want to do is find a list of invoice numbers in column B populated from a remittance, and then replace column F to say a specific thing depending on check number and date paying for that invoice. So if a check printed today I would have it replace column f to say paid 1/31/13 check # xxxxx. Currently I am searching for each invoice indivudually and then replacing with check number and date. There are about 200 invoices per month that I deal with, and it is a big waste of time!
For example from this
invoice #1 / reconciled (DATE)
invoice #2 / reconciled (DATE)
To this:
invoice #1 / paid (DATE) check # (xxxxx)
invoice #2 / paid (DATE) check # (xxxxx)

Column H contains alphanumeric data (codes).
I need a macro that renames all cells in column H starting with the letter "B" by replacing B with "Temp" and thereafter cuts the last two digits of the code. B224501 would thus be Temp2245.

I was wondering if it is possible to perform a find and replace which would replace data from another column. We have a lot of data fields of our inventory that we exported which we are trying to condense for another program.
Example: I have a description column (AV) that has [[Manufacturer]] within the description. We want to find [[Manufacturer]] and replace with our data column (DD).
This is the data that has our manufacturers name in it. We have several find and replaces to do within the description column besides the above field.

I have an excel workbook where some sheets have a column called "Name" in Row 3. The column where "Name" appears shifts based upon other criteria so it's not set within 1 specific column.
The real data for the "Name" column starts in Row 5. Is it possible to create a macro that looks in Row 3 for "Name", then once it finds that column, it does a find and replace from Row 5 to the end of the data and replaces every space with a ^.
For example, if I have:
Row 3 Name
Row 4
Row 5 John Smith
Row 6 Jane Doe
Row 7 John Doe
Row 8 Jane Smith
I'd like the data to become:
Row 3 Name
Row 4
Row 5 John^Smith
Row 6 Jane^Doe
Row 7 John^Doe
Row 8 Jane^Smith
I'm using Excel 2010 if that impacts anything.

I'm trying to find a function, or conditional format, that will allow to find certain text in a column and then replace all the similarities from another cell.
So basically, I have 3 Columns.
Redundant Text
Replacement Text
What The Text Currently Reads
Red Hats
Save On Red Hats Online
Black & Red Hats
Blue Jeans
Find Blue Men's Jeans
Blue Jeans On Sale
1) There is text that is recurring in the the thousands of the cells of Column 3.
2) I have used a program that found the recurring data, and put them in Column 1
3) Column 2 is what I want ever cell in Column 3 to change to when it matches the cell in Column 1
4) Is there a function that will find text in the 3rd Column that matches text in the 1st column (multiple cells in the 3rd column will match one cell in the 1st column)
5) Then Replace the text in the 3rd Column with the corresponding text in the 2nd column

When using the replace rule in Excel, you can use "?" to represent a standard variable, e.g. if you had the text "Bottle 100g", and you set the replace rule as "?g", it would delete the "g" and the four characters before it, leaving you with "Bottle".
However, if I have lots of replace rules to make in a file, and I only want to eliminate the numerical values before a letter, how do I go about doing this?
For example, if I had the text "Dog food 10g", and I made a replace rule "??g", it would leave me with " food ". What I would really need, is a way of taking away the numeric values before the "g", which would give me "Dog food".
Therefore, is there a unique identifier for numeric and/or text values?

I have a list of stock codes which are 6 digits long and there are over 550 of them.
We have shortened our codes to a five digit number, removing the first digit.
Is there a way to delete the first digit of the numeric and replace it with the remainder in all of the 550+ cells?

This problem has come up fairly frequently lately, and I'm not sure how to fix it, or if this is by design...but in Excel 2003 I can't seem to do a "Find and Replace" based on the value of a cell. I can do a find, based on cell value, but the moment I change to the replace tab, the "values" and "comments" are missing from the "look in" dropdown.
I've only noticed this when I'm trying to replace on a filtered list, so I'm not sure if that is part of the issue.
Perhaps an alternative way of arriving at the same goal. Basically I have a worksheet with a number of filtered columns. They are filtered just right, using custom filtering, and so I do not want to undo the filters. In some columns I have formulas that are returning #VALUE! errors. I'd like to replace all of these cells with NA.

I recently became owner of a spreadsheet with some issues, and I am trying to make it useful. Each row has a URL of a blog post, and I want to extract the date from it (which is present in each URL) while getting rid of the rest of the URL. I was able to get rid of everything up to the year (which comes first), but then the URL continues, for example, 2013/05/16/the-rest-of-the-url/ and I would like to just have 2013/05/16 remain.
I am trying to use find and replace with the find box reading 2013/??/??/*/ and replacing it with 2013/??/?? which effectively erases everything else in the url, but leaves ?? instead of the numbers. Is there any way to have it so that it keeps whatever was in the original box?

[Code] .....
Trying to repeat a 550 or so character statement with a find/replace however I am getting type mismatch errors. When I use a smaller message in the "replace" it works.
I need it to post a message exactly as long as what I have in there. How do I get it to work?

Need assistance with the code for catching errors when using the find / replace function in excel? In particular, I am trying to write code to break to an error message when the value or string searched for isn't found in the find / replace. At the minute I have just copied the standard code using a macro and all this does is return a message box saying X entries replaced.

I am trying to create a macro where it finds a a certain word in a column for example C. What i want it to do is find anything that says FWD_EUR and then replace that cell (e.g C2) with CASH_EUR_FWD and after it has done that it replaces the adjacent cell (e.g. D2) with EUR_FWD. I then want this to do the same with FWD_USD to CASH_USD_FWD and adjacent cell to USD_FWD.

I get a ledger dump every month with 20,000 lines of all transactions. There are 1,200 ledger codes, ten departments, and thirty activities. Each of the 20,000 lines has columns with the ledger code, a department, an activity, and other data. There are tens of thousands of possible combinations of ledger code, department and activity.
I have most of the ones which are commonly used every month, and I use them to create a =sumif summary which totals all the same concatenations of ledger code&department&activity. However, every now and again a new permutation arrives and I need to find it and then create the new concatenation for the =sumif to use in the summary. Is there any way to do this by running a routine which will locate the new combination and create the concatenation in the =sumif summary?

I must change phrases and words in english to russian. I can use find/replace function but doing by hand it's very tie consuming. I need VBA or macro who takes values in column A, finds it in entire worksheet and changes it to matching value in column B. Is it possible and how I can do it?

I need the zip codes to be pushed to the next column, to column 'D' to be exact. I already tried using the "text to columns" function. I selected "delimited" file type and used "2". it pushed the data to the next column everytime there was a 2. The problem is, there are 2's in the middle of the zip code sometimes. Also, it gets rid of all the 2's. Also, I can't use the "fixed width" option because there are some city/states that have more letters in them obviously, so the column is not a perfect width.
