how to use a formula or macro or whatever that is applicable to solve my current issue.
For example:
I've the following text below. The prefix of "atest", "bgo", "crun" and "dfly_c" are fixed pattern, however, the text after prefix will change accordingly.
Now my request is, I would like to have the final output as per below. Notices that there are some additional numbers behind the text (with semicolumn).
Final output:
atest_myhomeisfar:1998
brun_veryfast:2009
cfly_bluesky:1790
dfly_c:bluesky:1800
My question is, is it possible to create something to handle this issue? I mean something that will seach thru a particular fixed pattern as mentioned above and add the number behind it?
I would like to do it one at the time (one prefix at a time). Not mass searching and adding.
For example:
Search all "atest*" pattern and add an additional number behind.
In Column A i have a long list of alphanumeric words , some of them end with a vowel "aeiouy". I want a macro that will go thru the list in A, and check if word in a cell end with a vowel, then put it in B column, so that in B i will have all the words ending with a "AEIOUY".
So I was given the task to translate some procedure instructions in an Excel file from English to Spanish. These are very simple instructions and in most cases repetitive throughout the document. There are a lot of instances where the instructions are the same except for a #. They are meant to be modified within the cell as the text that appears in the cell will be printed exactly as it appears.There are several instructions in the cell, it is basically a long continuous string in the cell. My idea is to create a macro that can search that range of cells for the instruction, replace it with the Spanish equivalent while leaving the original English instruction in the cell.
I am doing a Regular Expression search on a string variable assigned to the HTML content of a Wikipedia search. However I am currently manually going to Wikipedia, searching for the term, saving the html page, opening the saved page with Notepad and then copying the content into a cell.
Can the above process be automated with VBA, how to assign the html content of a Wikipedia search to a string variable.
I am trying to write a macro to search a column for a specific text string which when found, will copy the whole row the string is in. Once this row has been copied, I then want the macro to activate a new sheet and search for the next available empty row to paste the data. Once this has been done, go back to the original sheet and find the next cell in the original column with the specified text string and repeat until the range has been satisfied. Below is the script I have that sort of works.
I have a spreadsheet which has "Employee: [agent 1 name]" in column A and it may or may not have the word "Break" in the same column before it mentions "Employee: [agent 2 name]". The amount of data between agent 1 and agent 2 varies and am needing code which will insert a row above "Employee: [agent 2 name]" if "Break" is not found, and add the word "Break" in column A on the inserted row. I would need this to loop through the spreadsheet until all 100+ agents have been searched.
I'm also needing this done for the word "Meeting" and would insert a row 2 rows above the next agent.
I am trying to lookup if a string like a name exists in another string which has a buch of values for example to see if andy exists in a string which has data like andy;sandy or sandy exists in andy;sandy
i try create formula or macro, which will search in data during writing in cell. F.e. i have column A 1 dano black 2 dodo red 3 phil blue 4 black jack
I want something, what will be look in this column "A" up, during my writting in cell B1 and show results in C1. When i write „b“, it will show in B1 „dano black“, if i add „l“ (it will be written „bl“), it shown again „dano black“. If i add „u“ (it will be written „blu“) , it shows „phil blue“
I am trying to get a code which searches each row for a keyword, and then assigns a value to it depending on what group of keywords it is.
For example, if the Name or Comment mentions certain fruit keywords, I want it to assign the value: "Fruit", and if it mentions certain vegetable keywords, I want to assign it "Vegetables", and if it is unrelated to either, I want to keep it blank. If the name/comment mentions both fruit and vegetables then I want it to say "Error".
Since the keywords I am using are mostly two letters, I want the search to only search for the two letters on its own, and not as part of a sentence. e.g. if the key word is ED, I don't want it to return a value for "I rested". Instead, I want it to stay blank.
i.e. I want the code to take information from column A and B, and assign a value based on the keywords in column D and E. As an example:
A B C Name Comment Value V1 Eating vegetables are good for you Vegetable null lock out of ep. Fruit S-1 It is JUST Fruit-sp Error
D E Fruit Vegetable EP SW KG SP ST CM BV LP
The formula I used so far is this: where C3 is the first value C3=IF(OR(ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6,A3))),ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6,B3)))),"Fruit","")&IF(OR(ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$E$2:$E$6,A3))),ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH($E$2:$E$6,B3)))),"Vegetable","")
In columns D and E I put a leading and trailing space between each word to only search for the keywords themselves, and not as part of a word. (e.g. ST is correct instead of haSTe).
This formula seems to work only for 60% of the information, problems occur when the keyword is at the end of comment sentence: the value is blank. e.g. in row B4 of the table I made above my formula returns a blank.
I've created the following Macro based on some of the posts on this great forum! It works great, but I'd like to tweak it for another purpose where it would fill the formula down until a cell in column AF had the value "#N/A" or stopped having the value "clean". The #N/A is from a formula result so I'm not sure if or how the Macro would treat this.
Code: Sub Y_CleanUp3() ' ' Clean Up Bad Data Macro 3 Dim LR As Integer Range("AH2").Formula = "=VLOOKUP(X2,'[Territory by Zip Code.xlsx]Sheet1'!$A$2:$B$135000,2,TRUE)" LR = Range("AF" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row Range("AH2").AutoFill Destination:=Range("AH2:AH" & LR), Type:=xlFillDefault With Range("AH2:AH" & LR) End With End Sub
I need a macro, or a formula that can identify if the words in the Words Column (Column A) is contained in Title Column (Column B). If it is, It displays as "Yes". If not, display as "No".
I have a column with text that can contain a number of words one of which is 'UK & Europe'. I want to have another cell which will contain the value EMEA if the the cell mentioned above contains the word UK. how to do this as I'm stumped... I get a #value in cells that dont contain the word when using the formula =IF(FIND("UK",H27),"EMEA","ROW")
Column A ( SEARCH STRING) list the string to be searched in C column Column B (RESULT) reports the macro result Column C ( List ITEMS ) is the column where the macro have to search the string
Operation: - Starting from A2 up to the end of value in A column - Search the substring ( A2 cell value ) in C column starting from C2 * if found copy all the C row content in B2
If 'not found' write NOT FOUND (*) all search ( from A2 to An ) starts always from C2
I'm using the following code which is working well. It finds an instance of the string "A83". Once it finds it, it moves down x number of cells and populates it with a new string. It then moves down another x number of cells and populates it with another new string, etc.
The problem is, it is only looking for "A83" one time and performing the appropriate actions at that point. What I need to do is look for *every* instance of the string "A83" and perform the appropriate actions.
I trying to search for a string in Excel and then delete that row. The code below will do that but I am also looking to delete the next row line out as well. .
Dim ws As Worksheet Dim lRow As Long Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("DSS")
I have a table of data and i need to search the table for 8digit numbers, that are beginning with "2" and copy the numbers to the column on the right. A cell can contain multiple numbers with 8 digits.
I use the following code to search through a database and paste the results in a separate worksheet.
Private Sub TextBox8_KeyUp(ByVal KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger, ByVal Shift As Integer) sheets("Search Results").Unprotect Dim cell As Range Dim foundcell As Boolean If KeyCode = 13 Then Application. ScreenUpdating = False Application.enableevents = False If Not TextBox8.text = "" Then For Each cell In sheets("Detail").Range("e2:e" & sheets("Detail").Range("e65536").End(xlUp).Row) If cell.Value = TextBox8.text Then foundcell = True With sheets("Search Results").Range("e65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1) .Value = cell.Value .Offset(, -4) = cell.Offset(, -4).Value .Offset(, -3).Value = cell.Offset(, -3).Value .Offset(, -2).Value = cell.Offset(, -2).Value .Offset(, -1).Value = cell.Offset(, -1).Value .Offset(, 1).Value = cell.Offset(, 1).Value ................................
Im am trying to create a search marco button that allows me to search in multiple worksheets in one work book. I came across this CODE the first part of it works. It pops open user input box and ask for the word that i would like to search but the this error message pops up Runtime error1004 Method 'range" of object'_Global'failed and i dont know what to do
Private Sub SearchButton_Click() SearchString = InputBox("Enter Search String", "Search") If SearchString = "" Then Exit Sub For Each c In Range(myRange) If InStr(LCase(CStr(c)), LCase(SearchString)) Then
I'm getting an input string from the user in an excel sheet(e.g. input.xls) .I have to search for that string in a group of excel files present in the same folder in which the input.xls file also present.The range of that cell in which the string is found (e.g. A1 ) has to be stored in a variable.
I know that Vlookup is an option but the number of excel files to be searched is more that 50.
If I have a store number (say 1234) and I am trying to search for something which contains 1234 (i.e. the whole string of ABCD1234, ABCD1235, ABCD1236 etc) is it possible to do this in one VLOOKUP formula?
One way of doing it would be to VLOOKUP("ABCD"&"1234",....) but I would rather do it the other way around, to prevent the formula from not working.
I have put a formula in excel to count how many times the word 'administration' appears in a column:
=COUNTIF(K2:K99,"Administration")
Unfortunately, the output that I am searching has mulitple words in it, separated with a colon and no space. My formula skips the count if the word Administration is not completely on it's own
e.g. Administration counts 1 Administration;Cardiology does not count
1) search column A for a string 2) as that string is found, move the entire contents of that cell to the same row, column F 3) insert a blank row above the row where the text was found 4) continue to search and perform the same steps
I was able to come up with the code to find a single instance and perform the necessary steps, but I've tried 'til I'm blue in the face to incorporate the FindNext object to parse through the entire worksheet. I thought I was on the right track with the attached code (which could be completely wrong), but it returns my MsgBox "Value Could Not Be Found."
I have about 700 cells I want to interrogate. Within each cell the following text appears “Estimate – BOLB/02/1234 – Some more text here”. I want to search all the cells and delete the cell contents but leave the “BOLB/02/1234”.
The problem I have is that the string is different in each cell but the format is the same. It always starts with BOLB followed by /, followed by 2 numbers, followed by / followed by 4 numbers i.e. BOLB/**/****.
Column A contains an alphanumeric string up to 50 characters in length. I need a formula to search the string in Column A for the word "Appeal" and place that word in Column B when found. Likewise for the words "Grievance" and "Complaint". If none of the three words are found in Column A, the contents of Column B should be blank. Here's the formula I've played around with (it works on the first line but returns #VALUE! on following lines):
I've tried entering it as an array, but that also fails. This seems like a pretty simple problem ,but I've spent several hours trying to make the formula work so I'm obviously doing something wrong.
