To Formulate The Spreadsheet
Dec 9, 2008I have managed to formulate the spreadsheet so that it looks up £ to € exchange rates for particular days automatically, but I am now trying to make a macro which allows users to insert a new expense into the form.
I require the macro to move a selection labelled TOTALS down a row, and then copy the formulae from other rows down to the new row below. That's not particularly well explained.
Basically i have one row which is formatted correctly with formulae etc, and i want when the user clicks the macro button for the totals (which are two lines beneath) to be moved down a row, and the formatted row with formulae to be copied to the next row below. The important formulae in cells have labels attached so if i can use these it may be easier?
Auto Formulate Cell
Jan 19, 2009January 4 = 1
February 5 = 1
March 7 = 3
the value range is
0 = 0 3
1 = 3.1 5
2 = 5.1 6
3 = 6.1 7
4 = 7.1 100
the problem i have is that sometimes the range will differ from month to month.
Formulate IF Function That Will Check Name Of Employees?
Apr 22, 2014I have a list of employees and the dates they worked. I'm trying to formulate an IF function that will check the name of employees in the list against the to the contents of a particular cell and also check the date the employees worked against another cell that contains a specific date, and if both these conditions are met, mark that cell with an X, if not leave it empty.
The formula I have right now is =IF(AND(A2:A27=G4, D2:D27,H3),"X",""). A2:A27 is the range that contains employee names, G4 is the first employee's name who I want to check if he is on the list, D2:D27 is the list of days they worked on and H3 is the date I want to know if this particular employee worked in. Using this formula returns either an empty cell of a #NAME? error. Is this a cell formatting issue?

Add Single Character Before & After Each Cell Value In Column
Jan 27, 2009I am trying to do is put an asterisk at the beginning and the end of the Information in a cell for the entire column. Is there a way to make a macro that, once I highlight a column, it will put an asterisk at the beginning and end of the information in each cell in that column until a blank cell is reached where the macro will then stop? This will save me a lot of work. It will work for me if a particular column has to be defined in the macro, but would be better if it is one I can just highlight.
This would also work fine for me if I just had to highlight the cells that I want to use as well. Sorry if this seems to be a stupid question, but I am a very novice excel user

Find Column Character Search Result
Jun 9, 2009I'd like to search for text and get the column character where the cell with the found text. The combination the two 'demands'/formulae into one are giving me problems. And the fact that the column character can exist out of two characters I cannot solve.
I can get the column number with HLookup right? and it gives me the column number, not the character. I can solve this partially (and ugly even more) with =Char(((Hlookup etc)+64 (letter before A))).

Split A Column Into 2 - Use Character Limit That Does Not Cut Words In Half
Jun 11, 2013I have huge columns of data that can only be 30 characters long. I want to use a formula to split the column into two. The original column will have a character limit of 30, and should not cut words in half. If the Length will be more than 30 while including the entire last word of the cell, that word should be the first displayed in adjacent cell in the 2nd column.
The 2nd column can be any length.
I usually use a Text to Columns method, but dont know how to make it not cut off the words.
Remove / Replace ONLY FIRST Occurrence Of First Character In All Rows Of Column?
Jul 30, 2013I need to remove the first character in each row of a column, but only its first occurrence in each row. For instance:
Say, column 2 has following data (lots of rows, by the way):
First Text" - "blabla"
=SomeText2 = "blabla"
SomeText3 = "blabla"
=SomeText4 = "blabla"
-SomeText5 --- "blabla"
........
....
I would like to use the VBA code to remove ONLY the FIRST occurrence of the FIRST character specified (either "=" or "-") in each row in that column, so that I get:
First Text" - "blabla"
SomeText2 = "blabla"
SomeText3 = "blabla"
SomeText4 = "blabla"
SomeText5 --- "blabla"
......
...and so on...
I tried to use this:
Code:
Columns(2).Cells.Replace What:="-", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
Columns(2).Cells.Replace What:="=", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
but it replaces ALL occurrences of "=" and "-" and that is not what I need.
I also tried this code:
Code:
With Range("B:B")
.Value = Replace(.Value, "=", "", 1, 1)
End With
But It doesn't work either.

Append All Digits Before Character To All Numbers Between The Same Character
May 18, 2008I have got a list of numeric abbreviations, for instance 10739011/21/31/41. What it should really display are the numbers 10739011, 10739021, 10739031 and 10739041 (the first six figures stay the same). All the numbers in my list are 8 figures long. I want to change the list from the list seperated by the backward slash to the complete numbers. I have uploaded an example of the list with backward slash between the numbers. Is there a way that Excel can automatically change these numbers to the full numbers?
Because all the numbers are 8 figures long, I thought the first 6 figures of the 1st number can be copied and those 6 figures pasted before the other two figures after the backslash. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;sorry, pressed OK too quickly. The problem is that there are sometimes 4 numbers in the cell, sometimes 6 and once three. I would like Excel to complete all the numbers in the cell and then move on to the cell underneath it and so on. Also, I would like each number to have it's own cell.

Adding Character To End Of Each Row
Dec 17, 2008A list of URL's in each row. Here's an example:
webmd.com/diet/rapid-weight-loss

weightloss.about.com/

weightloss.about.com/od/southbeachdiet/a/aa060705a.htm
weightloss.com.au/
Here's what I'd like to accomplish: For each row that contains a URL that ends with a / I would like to remove it. If I use the find/replace feature, it would remove all /'s, which I don't want since a good majority of the URL's contain the /'s in various parts of the URL, such as in the example above. I'd also like to accomplish adding a / to the end of every URL for a list that does not have the /'s at the end.

Character Limit?

Character Limits
Mar 4, 2007I copied this from Excel:
Length of cell contents (text) 32,767 characters. Only 1,024 display in a cell; all 32,767 display in the formula bar.
I have an Address Book from an old Personal Information Manager that exports the file as ASCII.
My problem is when I view the .asc file in Excel, Excel has created two rows for several entries.
That creates a problem as I wanted to select Column "A" then do Text to columns with a comma delimiter (the asc files has the comma in place)
However, since Excel put in the second line, I'll not be able to put in a header column.
When I look at the .asc file there is no way that there is more than 32,767 characters in each row. So why did Excel split it up? ....

Is There A Substitute Character That Can Be Used
Nov 6, 2008I have a whole bunch of dates in a column that look like this:
5/01/1998 when it is supposed to be 5/01/2098 is there a character you can use when you are using the find & replace mode i.e.
