where i can grab a number from a cell it would ALWAYS be the last string item..
for example if cell A1 has the following text:
04/02 Card Purchase 03/31 Google*1873060297 Cc@Google.Com CA Card 5036 $500.00
i want cell B1 to hold just the $500
this wold always be the case for everything im trying to do
How to modify a custom cell format to make data entry easier.
My goal is to have the output look like this: 'A12B-C20D: SET 10: Text string here'
Inputs needed are:
1-3 digit number between A & B
1-3 digit number between C & D
1-2 digit number after SET
Text string of variable length
Where I am stuck. So far I can get "A12B-C20D: SET 10:" to show up properly when 122010 is input. The custom format I am using looks like this: "A"##"B-C"##"D: SET "##": "
When I try to incorporate the "@" symbol the first part of the formatting goes away and the output shows up as "122010 Text string here".
I have tried:
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##":";;-;_@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##": ";;@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##":";_@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##": ";;;@
I'm trying to develop a new daily timesheet for my production workers, where non-production items are recorded in 15 minute intervals. The user would put in "Clock in" by the corresponding time, and the same for "Clock out" at the end of the day. Any non-production items will be type in next to their appropriate time. Since clock in and clock out times will vary, I need to set up a formula that searches the array of cells for the day, finds the "Clock in" and "Clock out" values, and counts any blank cells in between them. Basically the blank cells will equal production time, and the result of the Count function will be multiplied by 0.25 to get the hours.
I am having a very difficult time finding a way to set the "Clock in" and "Clock out" cells as the range for the Count function, because it won't always be the same cells. What would be the best way to automatically have excel find the cells containing these values and set them as the range criteria for a Count function?
The formula at the bottom was one of my initial attempts, but it didn't work. I took out the '=' for the screenshot, so that wasn't the problem.
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".

I am working with a somewhat lengthy worksheet with over 60,000 records. oOne of the columns within the worksheet is the "Account Number" column, which typically consists of 14 numerical characters, but can sometimes have additional or fewer characters. I need to set up a conditional format to pick up any account number that ends in an alphabetical value, (e.g. a through z). The account number is located in column G.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to extract competition naps from the competition entries and then remove the string ending "nap" from the data so it can be pasted to another sheet in it's 'clean' format.
on the example sheet column B will always be the first column and the range will extend to either G,H or I (always the max range as there are always 6 to 8 races)
i would like the code to search through these columns of data and find the cell ending in 'nap' then to return this in column i, once done remove 'nap' ending from both the source cell and column i.
once done to then go through all the rows and do similar
the end result would be all naps returned into cell j and all the 'nap' endings through the data range B to I (max) to be removed to leave the horses name only.
in book 3 the first row nap was sommersturm so i have shown the outcome i would like with the nap ending in I1 removed and the horse name returned in J1 again minus 'nap' ending.
the data will always be clean with no leading/trailing/excessive spaces and always be lower case too. sometimes a space is not in between horse name and nap but it's always last 3 characters i want removed still.
I'm trying to create a formula which will allow me to do the following
1. Enter the number of jobs received
2. Divide it by the staff available without ending up with decimals.
As an example. Say I have 60 jobs to be allocated and there are 13 peeps to distribute them to I'm currently getting 4.62. What I need to do is make sure that the jobs are only issued as whole numbers. E.g 5 peeps gets 4 and 8 get 5. I also need to factor in jobs on hand etc but I have already cracked this.

Wondering if it is possible to generate a random 4 digit number based off an alphanumeric string?
Example;
Cell A1 has 123XVF1234
Cell A2 has 321AFW4321
In B1 I would like to have a 4-6 digit number that is generated based on the alphanumeric data in Cell A1 (and so on down the list). If that is possible, I would also need to be able to convert back the 4-6 digit number back to its original alphanumeric value
Example;
If B1 returns 643562 it would need to be able to be converted back to 123XVF1234
In sheet1 I have a simple database consisting of 5 columns of data
Column A : Name ie James Jones
Column B : payroll number ie 123456
Column C : shift times ie 1245-2124
Column D : job title ie floor
Column E : comments ie A/L or 0600-1500
what I would like is some code that will go down Column E and if a 'time string' ie 1300-2130 is found then copy this string and paste into corresponding value in column C. If a text string is found ie A/L or Sick or anything like this then ignore and move onto next cell, loop this until all cells in column E have been checked.
I need to create a string of all the Acc Number but I dun not wan any repeat of the same Acc number in the String . The number of Acc number to be put in the string may varies sometimes. It may varies from 3 to 1000 or more . Is there a way to write a general formula to create such string?

Im looking to have excel grab the sheet name from the cell rather than manually clicking on the sheet each time. I have attached an example. I would like the formula in cells B5:7 and C5:7 to reference A5:7 rather than the specific sheet as seen in cell B5 --> =b!A1. I assume it will look something along the lines of ='(A5)'!A1, but that doesn't seem to work?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two documents with very similar information. Some rows are duplicates. However, there is one column of information missing from the 1st spreadsheet. Let's call them Sheet1 and Sheet2.
How do I tell Excel:
In Sheet1, IF A2 matches any field in Sheet 2, column A
Then: copy the data from the same row, in a different column (Sheet1 A3) and put it into a specific corresponding cell (Sheet2 A3)
Basically I'm trying to grab a product ID from sheet2 and put it in the matching cell, for that specific product. I have all teh product IDs in column A in sheet 2. The product IDs field in Sheet 1 is blank. I need to populate it with teh correct information from Sheet 2. But there are many moreproducts in sheet 2 than in sheet 1, so I can't just sort and do a copy paste. It needs to think "if the product exists in sheet 2, grab the info from sheet 2 and put it into sheet 1 for that product id."
I do have one issue I need to work on with a VLOOKUP formula.
I have a list of cities and counties that the VLOOKUP goes and looks at to pull information from.
The problem is that when there is a city and county with the same name (Example: Boulder and Boulder County) VLOOKUP always seems to jsut grab the one that is listed first in the list.
When you use the city name of Boulder, VLOOKUP always retruns the information for Boulder County.
Here is my forumula:
=VLOOKUP(qtProjAddress3,'City Mileage and Tax Rates'!A2:C518,2)
Is there something I can add to this formula that will allow it to return the proper city or county when the names are similar?
I would like to automate this process that I'm doing currently through the "Text to Columns" function.
Basically I have various cells that contain many worlds such as:
FRESH LUNETTE SOLEIL REES 1'S
INFOKUS SOLEIL LECTURE LUNETTES 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL ELEORA 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL ELIZABETH 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL JAMES 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL VESPER 1'S
KIDS LUNETTE SOLEIL HOUSTEN 1'S
KIDS LUNETTE SOLEIL MINNIE 1'S
My goal is to separate the first world from the rest of the words in one cell.
Since all of the words are seperated by space, I use the the "Text to Columns" function and separate the words, so that I can get the first word into one column. The rest of the words have to be merged again through "Concatenate".
What I'm looking for is a VBA code or Excel function that can identify the first world (which vary in character lengths) and put it into one column.
Is it possible to have a spreadsheet that when opened grabs data from every file with "*invoice" in the title in folder 2009 and all its sub directories and puts them into a list in the opened file?
The data needed is to be from sheet1, cells B16, C18, G18 from all the files
and i would like B16 put into A2, C18 into B2 and G18 into C2
Then the next sheets data B16 to A3, C18 B3 and G18 to C3 etc etc until all files with invoice in the title have been added.
B16 is a name
C18 is an address and
G18 is a postcode
This means there can be no duplicates so if opened twice there will only ever be 1 of the same address and postcode.
Dim iStartBook As Long, iNewBook As Long
iStartBook = ActiveWindow.Index
ActiveWindow.NewWindow
iNewBook = ActiveWindow.Index
I'm trying to grab the "2" that .NewWindow generates. The above gives 1 both times, despite the obvious 2 in the caption after you run it. So what property works? What does .Index mean here?
I have created an image of what i want and hopefully this will explain better.
This is very hard but it is something really important for the company i work for and have an idea on how its done but not enough knowledge to implement yet.
I've set a range as DD14 to G014, then using a For Next Loop asked the program to cycle through each cell in the range. Upon findng a populated cell, it stores several bits of data from that cell (already done) and then move up one cell to record the cell value (time) and again move one cell up to record the date.
Now I did get this to work using a clunky bit of code that used activecell.offset to move the focus up the two columns and a While .... Wend loop - but using a set range and cycling through each cell it does not appear to be possible - or am I wrong?
Set MyRange(1) = Range("D14:ER14")
Set MyRange(2) = Range("D23:GN23")
For MyCounter = 1 To 2
For Each Cell In MyRange(MyCounter)
If Cell.Value = "" Then Goto Skip_Cell
MyCell = Cell.Address
MyPosition = InStr(1, Cell.Value, ",")
If MyPosition = 0 And Len(Cell.Value) >= 3 Then
Tool_Number = Left(Cell.Value, 3).....................

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have one worksheet with four columns of data. Column A is a well name, RA-0001, column B is the measured depth of the well from 0 feet to however far down it goes, anywhere from 4000 to 15000 feet, column C is the inclination of the well, column D is the Azimuth.
I have 500 wells from RA-0001 to RA_0500 or so all in this one worksheet, all the wells have varying Measured Depths associated to their well name. I need to create a macro that can separate the wells and either put them in a new worksheet for each well, ie. a worksheet named RA-0001, RA-0002, ..... ect. OR, and this would be nicer, a macro that can actually save all these individual wells as (Formatted Text (Space Delimited)) files with the associated well name.
Here is an example of what it looks like. The columns do not have a subject line to state what information is in each column because I dont need it in that format.
RA-0001
0
0.00
0.00
RA-0001
100
0.91
5.56

Even just knowing how to create a simple macro that would take all the data from each well so I could manually copy and save them as new files.
I need in XL for a macro to run, open my word file, copy the entire thing and then paste it back in XL.
So leaving it general, Word.doc and Excel.xlsx
It's all because my company's POS system will only export to Word but everything we do is in XL.
How to grab data from a table providing it fulfills two chained conditions without using a concatenated key. For example:

John
Red
[Code] ........
The database is something like:
A
B
C
D
1
John
Red

I ended up using VLOOKUP() and a concatenated key like Name&Color but it slow down the sheet significantly as I have many records and also does not seem the most elegan solution. I tryied using OFFSET() nested with MATCH()but couldn't get it. Also tried something with ARRAY FORMULAS but I am not very proficient at them.
I am creating a billing sheet that has a column where charges are coded (to determine what they are for) and I want a "Grand Total" for everything followed by a breakdown "Total" for things with the same code. Is there a way to set SUM code to grab all numbers next to codes?? (EX. Column A is Billing Code, column B is Cost in $$; I want a total at the bottom that takes the different amounts in column B based on the various information/codes from column A).
