Is there any way to split this string so I get Letter number number number in seperate cells?

I'm trying to split the string in textbox 1 so i get the first name and the last name but this doesn't seem to work?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to split a string in all cells in one column (delimiter = ""). What I basically want is to get just the first word in the cell.
View 4 Replies View RelatedSay I have a string, "a test array." I want to split this into an array where each character is an element. I was thinking something like
Dim MyArray As Variant
Dim MyString As String
MyString = "a test array"
MyArray = Split(MyString, "", Len(MyString), vbTextCompare)
But this doesn't work because Split() returns the entire string when the delimiter is a zero-length string.
I'm stumbling upon something I just can't figure out. I thought I was being very clever using the Split() function, and it did all work beautifully for a while.
I've got a list sort of like this:
Helloworld
Hello of World
Hello1 of Planet
And I want to be able to run the following code.
For Each u In units
d_type_a = Split(u.Value, " of")
Debug.Print (d_type_a(0))
Select Case u.Value
Case "Hello"
stuff...
Case "Helloworld"
stuff...
Case "Hello1"
stuff...
End select
next
But it fails on the Debug.print with a "Subscript out of range, nr 9" error. The debug is just there because it doesn't want to work. The debug.print DOES out put "Helloworld" into the Immediate window but then still fails which sorta confuses me.
The best I can figure out is that it just doesn't quite like the string without an " of" in it.
I have a column with cells that look like: XYZ - JobABC - Area 1-A. I'd like to split the column into to and have it look like: XYZ <next column> Job ABC - Area 1-A
Normally I'd use the text to columns function and "-" as delimiter, however, there are other instances of "-" which I do not want separated. Note that the XYZ can vary in length and therefore fixed width will not work either. I have attached a small sample with the different variations that I could encounter.
I would like a vba script to split a string of cells that are in the ACTIVECOLUMN.
It would split at each to the next column across.
i.e. split
C:Program Files est est1 est2 est3
to
A1
B1
C1
D1
E1
C:Program Files
test
test1
test2
test3
This is not for column A though it would be for the ACTIVECOLUMN range.
There could be up to 13 sub folders ()
I set out this morning to count duplicates in an array and report a succinct list.... so I went down the route of using a collection with keys to do this.
1. Is there a better way? Else
2. split my collection values? I'm a bit stuck.
I have a series of values in a collection like this
: Item 2 : "Spam|01/07/2013|1" : Variant/String
: Item 4 : "Chips|01/07/2013|2" : Variant/String
So I have 3 key pieces of data delimited by a pipe sign -
Product | Date | Number of Occurrences
Item 4 is of interest to me because it occurs twice.
How I can turn those collection values into something I can work with, else another approach to sum rows in an array which are duplicates (if you only look at 2 columns).
In filed I have couple of value separated by comma like below:
A1 header1
B1 header2
C1 header3
Audi
592035, 579733, 653749, 579735
20 000
If my macro found that string (always will be separate by ",") should split the string and add rows (= to number of string). The output should be as below:
A1 header1
B1 header2
C1 header3
Audi
592035
20 000

I have:
Code:
Set sourceWb = ActiveWorkbook
Set ws = sourceWb.Worksheets(1)
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim MY_Split As Variant
LastRow = ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
[Code] ...........
I can not get this to work:
Code:
Sub SplitApart()
Dim data As String
data = Sheets(1).Cells(20, 1).Text
For Each EachSplit in Split(data)
n = n + 1
Sheets(1).Cells(20, n + 1) = EachSplit
Next
End Sub
Error code when Debugging on "Split":
"Wrong Number of arguments or invalid property assignment"
I have a filname called ex: "Statusreport xxyyzz.xls"
I'm only interested to put xxyyzz in a variable and reuse it for saving another workbook.
How can I use the different string functions for this. The word "Statusreport" is used for apporx 20 different workbooks.
I need to open a text based file (not a txt file), read the data in as a String. Split the string and paste into a worksheet. The string really has 2 delimitors a & and a =.
Ideally, I would like to keep only what was between the = and the &. But would settle for splitting the string by &, then putting token to left of = in one column and token to right of = in the next column. The first sounded cleaner, but I'm getting desparate.
This didn't sound hard when I started, but I've never really done VBA before and it has been posing a much greater problem than I thought. I've tried several things, but this is the latest rendition. Am I thinking too much in terms of C++ and Java? ...
I have a string which follows this format: "App Alg FMA", "App Pgm FMA", "App Slf FMA" This string can shrink or grow dynamically depending on the number of App*'s selected. How can I split this string and load the App*'s into an Array so the array would contain the following
Array(0) = "App Alg FMA",
Array(1) = "App Pgm FMA",
Array(2) = "App Slf FMA",
I have a string like this:
VB:
test = "banana|apple|limon"
I did this:
VB:
test_2 = split(test,"|")
The code returned the test_2 var like a matrix with 3 data inside.
But when I try to copy the data inside with:
VB:
For i = 0 To UBound(teste_2)
test_3 = teste_2(i)
Next i
The code editor returns a ByRef error.

I am looking for a way to split a large string (400 numeric value's, split by comma's) into a 20x20 field.

I am having trouble figuring out how to split the data in a column.
For Example on the attached .xls - the first few records under the SIC column are:

70 110100

I have a spreadsheet with Approx 900 rows of information that has been entered incorrectly.
Spreadsheet has 6 columns.
Contact Name
Contact Number
Company Name
Company Account Number
Order Date
Order Numbers
Every Order should have its own line - However I have approx 900 rows where the order numbers have multiple entries instead of single entries.
All the order numbers end "LO" and there all 8 digits long.
I wanted to know if its possible to use excel to look for all instances of "LO" in the column Order Numbers and delete the original Row and replace it with 3 rows with the same information.
Example:

Sub ConvertLineNo()
Dim r As Long, TempStr As String
For r = Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row To 1 Step -2
TempStr = Cells(r, "B")

View 9 Replies View Relatedis there a function that will split a text string based on a symbol. I know how tyo use left and right, which are based on a set number of characters but I want to split based on a "/" mark. whats to the left of the "/" mark and whats to the right of the "/" mark. any ideas. an exaplme is: tom / tim. i want a formula that will put the word "tom" in a cell and another formula that will put "tim" in another cell.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have used this code below to split a large excel file into multiple sheets from matching column data, but now I need to split it by a partial match (set number of characters from the beginning) from beginning of the column data.
For Example:
[Code]....
So with the code provided below using column 3 I would get 10 different sheets since none of the data in the column is identical. I want to modify the code (or come up with new code) so I can set the number of characters to compare from the beginning of the data in the set column and split into sheets based on that. So if I set it to the first 4 characters in column 3 I would receive only 5 sheets sheets: Safe, Fail, Dont, Poop, & 21-4.
What are the modifications or new code needed for this? I have searched for a bit with no luck, just keep finding code to check the full cell data for matches in a set column like this code I have:

I have extracted a string from my address database which goes like name,address1,address2,city,postcode,country
I need to display in Column B as:
name
address1
address2
city
postcode
country
how to do this using VBA.
I have another problem with this damn address file. Column H and I have data in them that is often mixed. As shown below, I have used A and B below, but its normaly in Column H and I. I would be greatul if some could write a macro to split the data into the two columns.
Rows 2-8 is what Im presented with. I would like them to look like 11-17
Note that the number in row 8 does not match, so is left for manual intervention....
I have the cell data as below
How would I split into a new column the first part which is a date into a new column, then the country and the remainder into separate columns?
I still want the original data as I need to check that the splits worked well?

I'm using Excel 2000 and I have a spreadsheet with 4 columns (A-D) and many (500+) rows.
Part 1:
#########################################
Colums A & B both contain identical data - a first name and a last name in the format "John Doe".
I want the second word ("Doe") removed from all cells in Column A so that only the first name remains, and I want the first word ("John") to be removed from every cell in Column B so that only the last name remains.
So, where A1 & B1 both started with the data "John Doe" now A1 contains only "John" and B1 contains only "Doe".
#########################################
Part 2:
####################################################
Column C contains addresses in the format:
"#5 - 123 Fake Street, Some City, CA 90210"
There is ALWAYS a comma and a space after the street address, then the name of the city or town followed by more data which may include one or more commas.
I would like everything BEFORE the first comma to remain in column C, and everything AFTER the first comma & space to be moved into Column D of the same row. The first comma and space are not needed again.
So, where C1 started with "#5 - 123 Fake Street, Some City, CA 90210", it now only contains "#5 - 123 Fake Street" and D1 now contains "Some City, CA 90210".

How do I split numbers!
I have two problems/challenges!
Part I...
I got the answer 1987, and now I want Excel to take the numbers out and display...
1 in one box then i set + in the next, then 9 in the 3ed. box, next box +, then 8, then +, then 7 in the last so that i can have Excel make a SUM of it all to 25.
How do I split 1987 and put the numbers in different boxes?
Part II...
I want to make A=1 B=2... all the way up to 9, then start over again with J=1 K=2... up to 9 again and then over again.
So that if I write my name it comes out as a value of 14 (Odd = O=6 D=4 D=4 =14)
(AJSØ=1 BKTÅ=2 CLU=3 DMV=4 ENW=5 FOX=6 GPY=7 HQZ=8 IRÆ=9, It's the Norwegian alphabet, that's why there are some extra letters)
So how do I set up my Excel so that is ANY name is typed in I can get it out into a number from the values assign?
Here's my problem. I have a cell where there are many data strings seperated by ",". Each data string has a seperate value of its own like for e.g:
A2: aa,ab,ac
String Value
aa 1
ab 1
ac 3
What I want it accomplish is that, split the A2 cell into the different data string entities seperated by ",", then get the corresponding value of each of the data string entity, and to take the average of all the values of the different data string entities.
I have a udf that returns a string to the cell. The string is made up of multiple string "objects". What I am wondering is if I can set the font color of certain objects so that when the final string is built and returned, the font of those portions is set.
Ex. of simple idea (this is not actually my code, just a way to illustrate. I realize there is no point to this UDF):
VB:
Function StringReturn (Str1 As String, Str2 As String, Str3 As String) As String
StringReturn = Str1 & Str2 & Str3
End Function
Now what if I wanted Str1 and Str3 to be blue, and Str2 to be red for example. So that when the UDF calculates it would return: Str1Str2Str3
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
