I am entering large amounts of text into a text box uisng VBA code.
In VBE I need to line break the text using "space _" in order I can keep the text manageable on the screen. Problem is VBA is telling me there is a limit to the number of line breaks I can have in a sub, how I can solve this, ideally would like to paste a para of text at a time.
I'm trying to combine 2 cells that both have text on multiple lines separated by line breaks. I want to keep the formatting so that when both cells are combined, line one from cell 1 and line 1 from cell 2 are on the same line in the new combined cell. This is easy to do when there is only 1 line in each cell but how do you do this for cells with multiple lines? Here is an example of what I am trying to do:
A
B
C
1
First Name:
Last Name:
Address:
John
Smith
123 Harold Street
First Name: John
Last Name: Smith
Address: 123 Harold Street
Formula to split a cell at the first break/space and to keep the rest of the cell contents together? For example to separate addresses from the street and street name.
Eg.
A1
1111 AAAA BBB
into
B1 C1
111 AAAA BBB
I have tried to use text to columns but as the cell contains three or four words I don't want to have to rejoin cells afterwards.
I have this code that is to long for the vba window so I read around and found I had to add a space and _ to extend the line.For some reason I get an error in the code when I do that?
However I copied the formula right from the working cell?
the y-axis break between 0 and 0.8.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI have created a message box and I want leave two blank lines in the middle of the text. Is this possible?
At the moment my code for the message box line looks like:
Msg = "This process will print each site for " & UserSlection & ". Before continuing please ensure you have the right printer selected. (I.E. a colour printer where available). The process may take several minutes to complete. Do you wish to continue?"
I just want to move the "Do you wish to continue?" down two lines so that it is easier to read.
I need a formula to insert a line break after every 42 characters in a cell , example if there is 266 characters in a cell there should be 6(266/42)line breaks.
=REPLACE(REPLACE(A1,42,0,CHAR(10)),84,0,CHAR(10))
I tried this but i am not sure how to get the start num to change to 126,168 and so on
I know Excel is not the best tool for formatting sentences, but is there a way to insert a Line-Break based on a condition? (Either using Formula or VBA).
The situation is:A fixed-width cell, is a concatenation of 5 strings. Each of these 5 strings is a small sentence of 3-6 words; individually much smaller than the cell-width.2 of these 5 are fixed (one at start, one at the end). The other 3 are results of their respective "IF" formulas.Hence, the final sentence wraps over 2-3 lines.I need the 3rd & 5th sentence (the whole sentence, all 3-6 words of it) to start in a new line, only if they are going to be wrapped into two lines.
So If the wrapping results in:
String1 String2 Stri
ng3 String4 Stri
ng5
Then change it to:
String1 String2
String3 String4
String5

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been working on different formulas to return the text string between the first and last space and have been unsuccessful. Is this possible?
I have tried several combos or Left and Right, I have been able to get the values after the first space, and the values before the last space, but not between the spaces.
String: Y60
~C CULT NUCLEUS 3X2 SPRING WST BK XL
Desired results: D60

I have two words of differing character lengths separated by a space.
How can I remove the first word... essentially, all the charcters to the left of the space AND the space itself?
I'm having troubles with a spreadsheet and unfortunately don't know enough VBA to fix it. I have two columns, each with data like so (standard text) separated by a line break:
Object1
Object2
Object3
value1
value2
value3
And I need them separated like so:
Object1
Value1
Object2
Value2
Object3
Value3
with other items in the row from other columns applied to the new rows accordingly.
Any script/macro/tool (even non-Excel) to do this effectively (over 800 rows)?
When importing text from a CSV, the 'line returns' appear in a cell as a small square with faded left and right sides. The do force a line break as intended. However, they are a nuisance in reading and printing.
When I use ALT+ENTER to force a line break, there is no visible character (on screen or printed) for the line break, which is as it should be.
How can I replace this 'special character' line break with one not visible?
Why when I drag the dotted blue page break line does it sometimes break the entire doc into one page per cell ?
The doc is not wide. When I first load I can drag the break line successfully. Then I print preview... select print on both sides... boom.. goes from 4 pages to 14. Then I go back to page break view... drag the line... boom... Hundreds of pages. Even if I revert back to printing on one side it still is messed up.
How do I make this stop?? What am I doing wrong?? Office 2010
I only want to remove one space at the end of my text within a cell, if there is a space.
Code:

c.Value = Trim(c.Value)

i want to break content of my cells in excel into lines. Normally it is done with [ALT] + [ENTER]. How can i use find and replace(or other method) to break contents of all cells where "µ" exist. I MS word that is pretty easy but i dont know how to do that in excel!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet where on a weekly basis data is copied in to various tabs. I then have a "formula" tab where I have a single line of formulas which look up the various data tabs and extract the results I want to show.
Currently each week, before I import the new data into the various tabs, I copy the last row in the "formula" tab and paste to the line below it. This contains all the working formulas. I then paste values only on the line that I copied, thus "locking in" the values it calculated with that weeks data. This means that each row then contains the results with that week's data, and this will grow week by week.
What I am looking for is a formula that automates this process. So let's say that row 30 is the final row of data on my formula tab, it contains the formulas I want to use. I would need a macros that does the following:
1. Looks up last row (row 30)
2. Copies last row (row 30)
3. Pastes to next empty row (row 31)
4. Pastes values only to second last row (row 30)
I'm not too great with writing macros, I've found plenty that can find the last row, but I can't get them to work to highlight that row.
I found this code that import TAB delimited text file. I would like to import space delimited text file instead.

There are basically four fields of text (date, trans. #, merchant, $ amount) all in one cell that I would like to have in 4 separate columns without having to cut-paste, cut-paste, cut-paste. Is it possible for me to break this information up quickly into 4 separtate columns? I have about 400 lines of text like this and would like to find a faster way to do it.

I have hundreds of rows to deal with.
I have a spreadsheet that has a column of text that is always 10 characters long. There are 10 rows of text so there could be 100 text characters if all rows are filled. The rows usually will not all be filled. There will probably be blank rows between used rows. I have been able to capture the text and put it into one cell as one long text which is ok but I want to be able to break it up into the 10 character strings again, separated with a comma and space between each 10 characters.
This is the code I used to collect the 10 character text strings and put them all together as the variable "result". I used & ", " after ... Cells(r,17) which worked fine unless there was a blank row. If the row was blank it put in a comma and space anyway so I ended up with duplicate(triplicate) commas and spaces.
Private Sub test_Click()
result = ""
For r = 5 To 32 Step 3
'If Cells(r, 17) "" Then
result = result & Cells(r, 17)
Next r
Range("r5") = result
End Sub
I'm trying to automate a very laborious process where text data is taken from a series of cells in excel 97 and is turned into HTML tables - I've got it all working except for one thing, when I extract the contents of the text the paragraphs are lost and are merged into one long piece of text - obviously I need to insert <br /> characters where the paragraphs are to get this working. how I can extract text from with some kind of marker for the paragraph sections? Or is there a way to insert characters where the excel cell has a paragraph mark (ie a return key has been pressed).

I have a text file, which is been imported to excel sheet. There are 2 fields in the text file. Each field has to be placed in one column. The first field has values with space. Due to this the first field is split into 2 fields and totally 3 columns are imported in the excel sheet. Have set .TextFileSpaceDelimiter=True so that it would split the 2 fields, but since the first field has space in it, it splits into 3 fields. Is their any alternate way to obtain the above?

I download players names from the internet for a football program I have and then have a formula that separates their names from their numbers. The problem is that in the cell with the players name their is always a space before the name starts. How can I get rid of this space?
The current text I download comes from the internet as follows:
2 Tom Bellchambers
4 Jobe Watson
5 Brent Stanton
7 Leroy Jetta
9 Brendon Goddard
11 David Zaharakis
12 Stewart Crameri
15 Courtenay Dempsey
These are all in column A I have the following formula in column D:
=MID(A1,SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(--MID(A1,ROW(INDEX($A:$A,1):INDEX($A:$A,LEN(A1))),1)))+1,LEN(A1))
The formula separates the names from the numbers but it leaves a space before the name starts such that in column D the first name woud be appear as:
Tom Bellchambers (or - ""Tom""Bellchambers)
Jobe Watson
And so on. My computer tries to match up these names in another sheet but because there is a space before the name begins it doesn't register. I got the formula above from one of you geniuses a while back and have NFI what it really means but alter it slightly so it gets rid of that space at the start of the name.
