View 9 RepliesI have a string of text in cell A2. In cell B2 of my spreadsheet is a formula that calculates a number based on the text string in cell A2.
I want to write a VBA loop that removes a single character from the cell A2 string, then calculate the new value in cell B2. I want this loop to continue until the value in B2 falls below a set value (in this case 60).
My code so far
Sub trim_text()
Dim mytext As String
Dim myanswer As Integer
mytext = Range("A2")
myanswer = Range("B2")
Do While myanswer > 60
mytext = (Right(mytext, Len(mytext) - 1))
Loop
End Sub
This obviously does not work. In my excel table I have a formula in cell B2 to calculate "myanswer" will this work, or does that code have to be placed into the VBA code?
I have found a very useful UDF for removing non-alpha characters from strings. (See below, Credit for posting to Stanley D Grom - Ozgrid post ´Removing Non-alpha Characters From Text´).
Option Explicit
Private Function RemoveCharacters(InString As String) As String
Dim intLoopCounter As Integer
Dim intStringLength As Integer
Dim intASCIIVal As Integer
intStringLength = Len(InString)
InString = LCase(InString)
For intLoopCounter = 1 To intStringLength
intASCIIVal = Asc(Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1))
If intASCIIVal >= 97 And intASCIIVal <= 122 Then
RemoveCharacters = RemoveCharacters + Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1)
End If
Next intLoopCounter
End Function
Two requests:
1. Could the UDF be modified such that any part of a string contained within brackets is also removed (e.g. "NLGA High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlgahighstreeten")?
2. Can an argument be added to the format of the UDF, such that numbers (0 to 9) are either included or excluded (e.g. RemoveCharacters(A1,1) where the argument ´1´ would include any numbers (0 to 9), so "NLGA2003 High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlga2003highstreeten6")? ´blank´or ´0´would exclude these numbers, i.e. would return "nlgahighstreeten"
I have a cell in a column A1 where is written: "XYZ 492" and in another Column is written "492".
Now I want to remove the "492" out of the first cell with a furmular.
i have the following formula: =REPT(Estimator!D8,(Estimator!E8="Yes")). when it is not in use or false it displays #N/A.

Im using the following function
=VLOOKUP(C15,Estimator!C8:D17,2,FALSE)
I need to create a formula that will remove / delete the last zero from a cell, but only if there is a . in the string and then delete the .
Example
A1
175FP2T12123050079301001 - Leave unchanged
A2
175FP2T12123050079302001.1 - result should be 175FP2T12123050079302011
Below is a typical example of the contents of one of my cells (of which I have around 500 cells):
263,330,335,430,431,435,640,700,748,750,752,800,807,901,916,917,937,944,954,953,962,266,2038,2054,20 56,2057,2058,357, 591, 800, 802, 748, 423, 801, 570, 955, 747, 940, 800, 748, 918, 800,730,579,728,307,310,577,717,939,958,713,
332,613,640,661,690, 800, 613, 332, 434, 575, 593, 904, 943, 648, 946, 947, 2079I'd like to remove duplicate entries from this cell (per cell) e.g. "800" appears several times.
We can distinguish between each entry by the comma - but how can I get Excel to look inside one specific cell at text and remove these?
I need to format C2 so that it removes all text that comes after a dash in B2, but if no dash exists, then it returns the text: Parent. For example, here are 3 values in B2, B3, and B4:
1234-s
1234-m
1234
In C2, C3, and C4 I'd like to have the following values returned based on the above values in B:
1234-
1234-
Parent................
In a cell there is text and numbers, example: ABC123. In an other cell I want
to show the numbers only (123).
I am trying to delete a row if the cell value of column A is a number and not a name.
What i have been using to remove things is this.

If (Cells(G, "A").Value) = "" Then

I have a function that adds a cell to a range whenever an "a" is placed in that cell using Set myRange= Application.Union(myRange, Target) under Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range). If a value other than "a" is then placed in the same cell I want to remove that cell from myRange. It is fairly random which cells someone will put an "a" in. Does anyone know of a function, or any way to do this. Basically if there are 4 cells in myRange (A1, B4, C6, D8) I just want to remove the last cell and have myRange have 3 cells now (A1, B4, C6).

I tried searching for threads that helped on this subject but they all involved VBA, which I do not know how to use with Excel. I took VB senior year of high school and C for a semester in college, so I recognize the commands, but I have no idea how it's implemented.
Is there a [relatively simple] way to do this with Excel functions? If not, how would I implement this using VBA? I am currently using the 2003 edition.

Is there any way to remove this duplicate text from the cell?
I am copying text (contest results from another website) and posting into excel. As it is formatted on the original site, it posts the place, followed by a period, then the team name, then a dash, then the score.
Example ... 4. Smokers Purgatory - 662.2858
To place it in our database we need the period removed from the place, and the dash and score removed.
Example ... 4 Smokers Purgatory
Is this possible to automate in excel or is there a way to format so that excel seperates the place, team name and score? Or should I be looking for a different method?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am currently using the following formula to remove the letter "R" from the end of cells
[=IF(ISNUMBER(--RIGHT(A3)),A3,LEFT(A3,LEN(A3)-1))].
However, I would like a macro to accomplish this goal, along with something else. I have a list of values as follows:
CHD152-2
CHD115-1
CHD40-3
RE224
HPC644R
DOC020R
HPC594R
What I need is a macro that will remove any instance of "R", "-1", "-2", "-3", "-4" from the end of a cell. neither of the 5 values listed in the last sentence are present, the the cell will be unchange. So, after running, the above values would look like this:
CHD152
CHD115
CHD40
RE224
HPC644
DOC020
