How To Turn Abbreviated Words Into Full Words

Feb 4, 2013

On to the topic, I have all the US and Canadian states abbreviated (CO = Colorado, etc.) and was wondering if there is a way to make all of them convert to their respective names in one fell swoop instead of writing it in for each one, one at a time. Something along the lines where I can make, CO = Colorado, TX = Texas and then hit enter and all of the abbreviations would convert. Some kind of command.

ie Cell A1: 8500
Cell A2: Eight Thousand Five Hundred

Big ask I guess but its for a banking model so I can't be the first to have considered this

Full Cell Displays Last Words Rather Than 1st Characters

Dec 22, 2006

How do I change the Excel settings to display in each cell as many characters as fit within the allotted cell space?

To elaborate, in previous versions of Excel that I have used, when a cell contained more characters than could be displayed in the size allotted, for viewing and printing purposes, the cell would simply display (starting at the beginning) as many characters as possible. After upgrading, I have found that when a cell contains more characters than can be displayed, it simply displays the last word contained in the cell.

For example if a cell contains "Frederico Gonzalez & Jose Rodriquez", but there is not room to display the entirety of the message, I would like the cell to display "Frederico Gonzalez & Jo", but the way it is currently displaying is "Rodriquez " with a whole lot of empty space afterwards.

This causes a problem, because it is usually not evident that more information is contained in that cell (unless the cell is selected).

How do I change the Excel settings to display in each cell as many characters as fit within the allotted cell space?

Auto-calculate 2 Column That Contains Numbers And Words Words

Jul 16, 2009

I've been using conventional method to do this and it's time consuming. I would like to total up 2 column. A multiply B to be exact. Below are some examples:

Table 1 - Before totaling up:

Quantity
Product
5
2 x Button A White
3
4 x Button B Pink
4
5 x Ribbon A Black
2
3 x Thread A White
6
2 x Cloth A Blue

Table 2 - After totaling up:

Quantity
Product
10
Button A White
12
Button B Pink
20
Ribbon A Black
6
Thread A White
12
Cloth A Blue

I need to have the sum of the "Quantity" multiply "Product". Or in short A x B.
And the end result need to have the number and "x" sign removed while keeping on the the products names. (2 x ) Take note it's "number" space "symbol" space.

Find Words - Deleting The Words - And Deleting Some Info After The Words.

Jun 23, 2006

I am trying to find certain words in a column and delete the word and characters following. For example, Say I have a column of info as seen below. This is a test of me. I am just experimenting with this stuff. Deleted (6/15/01) Let me know what you think. I am not sure about it all, but I guess I will figure it out. riviledge1 (01/05/06) Now let's see what happens when I try to test it.

I want to find all the "Priviledge1 (01/05/06)" and replace with nothing. Please note, the date will change with each record, so I need to figure out how to tell Excel to find "Priviledge1", delete it and the date behind it. So I want to delete "Priviledge1" and the next 11 characters including the space.

Combining List Of Words Into New Words, Conjugation

Feb 15, 2007

I have 4-5 separate lists of words/letters and I would like to combine them in a certain order but creating all possible combinations resulting a new word. It's like a conjugation tool for verbs. For example if List 1 = be/el/ki/meg; List 2= m List3=e/é; List4= gy/" "; List 5=" "/ek/sz/nnek So the output has to be (if the order is List1+List2+List3+List4+List5)= bemegy/bemegyek/bemegysz/bemesz/bemész/elmegy/elmennek/ ..... and all possible combinations.

Preferentially I would like to automate it in a way that it straight outputs into MS Access. Also can it be automated that it reads the list from a file (database)?
(Also can it recognize the word by letters? Because the basic word that I would load the program= List2+List3+List4)

Lookup - With Words??

Dec 30, 2008

I'm having a slight problem with lookup. I have attached the workbook. On the worksheet "Time List", it shows each round what time each team plays in order of time. On worksheet "Ind. Times" it is supposed to list the game times in order of team rather than times.

I'm using lookup, but the values in "Ind Times" are incorrect. If you look at the very first value... It says Monday Night Roast have a BYE Round 1, but looking at "Time List" you see they actually play at 8.00pm. On a side note, if I change the values of the team names to numbers - it works no problem at all.

RANKing Words?

Feb 9, 2009

The Excel function RANK allows one to automatically rank a number within a given range of numbers. Can anyone think of a way to do the same thing with words?

For example, imagine a list of 20 words in a column, with space to add ten more words (complete range B2 to B31, which include the last ten blank cells). If these were numbers, then in the previous column one could simply put in the RANK formula covering the full range, which would then auto update as you added more numbers to the spare ten cells of the range. Assuming that all the values being ranked are unique, and you would therefore get a unique rank number, to order them in rank order, one would simply have the list of possible rank values a column or two removed and VLOOKUP the ranks and their appropriate values.

But what if these numbers were WORDS? The first 20 words are FIXED and will not change, the next ten cells of the range could have any other words typed into them. There is no RANK function for words so how would you suggest that ranking by words is achieved, that does not require any intervention, and as new words were added to the spare ten cells in the range, then the rank would automatically update? This list of ranked words would then be VLOOKUP’d in the same fashion as above with the final list being used to fuel a drop down box, so the user would have an alphabetical listing of all the potential words in the range.

If Statement With Words

Feb 11, 2010

I m running a weekly league with a money list. There are teams that are randomly drawn each week and the winning team gets a certain amount of money. I want to be able to create a money list that pulls a persons names from my list of winners and tallies up there total winnings from all the tourneys combined.

Here is the data I'm working with:
A B C D
1 Tourney #1 Champ SteveEric $100.00
2 Tourney #2 Champ SteveBen $160.00
3 Tourney #3 Champ GregTony $140.00
4 Tourney #4 Champ GregHarry $70.00

I want it to add up the amount of money won by each player. So for example: Ben has won a total of $80. I want it to read that in my money list, then I would like to be able to sort the list using the DATA sort tool. So my main question is, what formula do I put in the cell in order to find the person's name then pull the amount won for that tournament, divide it by 2, then add it up as a total?

Here is what I want the list to look like:
F G
1 MONDAY NIGHT CORNHOLE MONEY LIST
2 NAMEAMOUNT EARNED
3 Steve$130
4 Eric$50
5 Ben$80
6 Greg$105
7 Tony$70
8 Harry$35

Delete Words Between First & Last

Aug 4, 2009

I have a column of Full Names like so:

Tim MacDonald
Pat @ Justine Carey
Penn Fishing C/O Denise Long
Krista Dawkins
Therese le Latshaw

I'm using =LEN(TRIM(C2))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(C2," ",""))+1 to do a word count. What I need is a formula that will delete all characters between the first and last word if the word count equals more than 2. Even just a formula to determine the location of the first and last space so I can use MID() to cut it out.

Fill Down Multiple Words?

Apr 7, 2014

I have an Excel spreadsheet with two columns: A and B.

Column A has multiple cells with content separated by different amounts of blank cells. Column B has content throughout the whole column. What I want to do is perform the same task as the "fill down" in Column A by clicking the black corner box as if Column A only had one heading/cell filled with data. The catch is that the fill down would need to be applied until the word changes. So for example in Column A if I had the cell with the word Smith and 20 blank cells after and then cell 21 with the word Thomas followed by 15 blank cells then I would want Smith to fill down its 20 blank cells until it hits Thomas then Thomas will fill down its 15 blank cells until it hits the next word and repeat.

How To Get Words To Equal A Number

Mar 10, 2014

How to recreate the formulas used in my old database. One important factor is that:


In the old database, once you type in a word, it associates it to a number, and also adds that number in a further row. how do i do this?.

EXAMPLE:
- i have the word "sitter" that = 10.25$. If i enter "sitter" in column F, it enters 10.25$ in column M.
- Likewise, i can also have the word "private" that = 13.50$. If i enter "private" in column F, it enters 13.50$ in column M.
