I have a huge data file. I would like to have excel automatically delete all rows with the value of 7 in column b. Can I do this without manually selecting all of the rows (I can sort by that value, but there are 120,000 rows).
View 6 RepliesI have a file with 300k lines of SKU data. This is data by month for 12 months (so roughly 25K SKUs per month, with changes in SKUs each month.) I take this data and pivot it and drop it into a file.
I noticed last month when I prepared that the SKUs have names next to them, and sometimes the information is pull by the name instead of the SKU. Unfortunately, in the master data, someone entered different names in a few of the months. So for example, in some months SKU 0012 is Green B and in other months it's Green Beans. I need the names to be the same.
Is there a quick way to fix this given that I'll have 12 records and maybe 3 will be one name and 9 will be there other? Finding and replacing every one is a chore because on pivot there are 40k. I don't think I can do a quick remove duplicates because it would remove multiple months. I just want each SKU to have the same name.
I wanted to see if there is a VBA code to do the following :
a) Select a TabText Delimited file based on a criteria
b) Import the Selected Data to Excel
I have the vba code where I can open the tab text delimited file in excel, use a selection criteria and then copy the data into excel. But I am having problems with the case where the Tab Text Delimited file exceeds the row limit that excel currently has and wanted to see if the data import can be done without opening the text file into excel at all.
Here is my current query :
Sub TEST()
' TEST Macro
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:="E:Testdata.txt"
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$B$1048576").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="1234"
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
[Code] .......
I read in a txt file with the code below. There's some kind of special character in the last 3 lines of the input file that makes the macro crash. I don't need anything in those 3 rows. How can I delete them before my Do Until loop?
-----
Sub Mytxt()
Dim Mytxt As String
Mytxt = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="EXCEL files (*.txt),*.txt", Title:="Open the Report file you need")
If Mytxt = "" Then Exit Sub
Workbooks.Open Filename:=Mytxt
Open Mytxt For Input As #1
i = 1
Do Until (EOF(1) = True)
Line Input #1, tempstr
Cells(i, 1) = Mid(tempstr, 23, 5)
Cells(i, 2) = Mid(tempstr, 25, 1)
Cells(i, 3) = Mid(tempstr, 33, 3)
i = i + 1
Loop
Close 1
End Sub
I have an excel file that is 50mb and I don't know why it is that huge. I did not create this file and was asked to look at it and figure out why it takes 10 minutes to open?
There is 3 tabs and very little data. How can it be so huge?
Is there anyway to put a background on a worksheet, without the file size of the workbook becoming monstrously huge? I have a small jpg file of our company logo, and I think that it would be a nice touch for it to be the background to our spreadsheet. But when I use this 50k file as the background, the workbook suddenly grows to a size of 7MB.
View 4 Replies View Relateduse CTRL+ Navigation Arrow Key on keyboard i.e. if you wanna go to the last Non-Blank row in a column press CTRL+Down Arrow key if your range contains empty cells then use this shortcut SHIFT+CTRL+Arrow key
if you wanna Get the Value of cell in a column you can use this formula
=INDIRECT("A"&COUNTA(A:A))
This formula will work only if there is no Blank Cell in the range.
I have a large *.tab file with around 450,000 records. I opened the file in excel and then filtered two columns where there are values equal to 0.
I then highlight all the rows and try to delete them, but I receive the following error popup box:
"Microsoft Excel cannot create or use the data range reference because it is too complex."
How can I delete all these filtered = 0 rows without getting this error??
When i'm working with huge data on excel say for exam 50000 records and about 25 to 30 columns, everytime i use any formaula and while saving it the file is not responding, what ever the formula like vlookup, countif, converting in values applying filters and removing filters and with that whatever the changes i do that is not seen next time when i open file.

The project I am currently working on is to extract the from over 25,000 lines of data the top ten of our customers for 2012. Our customers are billed monthly. We have about 2,300 customers. There are several customers who have more than 1 account.
The easy part has been to create a "charges" report and download into an excel format. The information can is alphabetized, but then the challenge comes in. Ideally it would be a snap to total each customer seperately and then somehow be able to extract the top ten from those totals.
I have this table with some information that I need to work with. The data is simple, but it has many issues, at least for me, to be able to work with it properly.
Basically, I just need to transfer part of the data from this table to another table (in another order). I failed to use vlookup because I need more than one parameter to search the data (Date, Shift and Sector).
The problem I am having to get the codes from the source table is that the same code sometimes shows up more than once per date, per shift and per sector. It's also not following a numeric pattern. I couldn't elaborate any combination of formulas to get the info I need....
I also can't change the format of the source table, because I'm not the one who made it, it has years already, and is constantly updated day by day by a good old man who doesn't know much about computers.

i have two columns in tow seperate workbooks to be compared:
in say inp.xls, there is a column(COL A) containting a lot of entries(numbers) - roughly around 60,000. Now in the other workbook, say mem.xls, i have a smaller set of numbers in a colum(COL B) - roughly around 300.
Now, the problem is, COL B, has numbers which may or may not match with numbers in COL A.
* If there is a match(between COL A and COL B), the row number at the match in COL A.
* If there is no match, the row of the closest number (in COL A) before to the number in COL B.
Example:
ROW COL A-----> COL B---------->
1 2184058252 2184276560
2 2184058280
3 2184058296
4 2184058312
5 2184058320
6 2184773640
7 2184774216
8 2184774272
9 2184774424
Now, i want to find 2184276560 in COLA, since it is not there, i want it to return the row number of the closest(previous) viz. row 5(2184058320).
Now, since this is a huge comparision set, im wondering what is the best way to do it. Im using VBA....
I have around 50 text files with similar design per attached file. I need to import the text files with criteria below:-
1. include file name
2. let user choose the folder
3. exclude data from "work in process summary" to "work in process cost totals"
4. only have one title in the excel files which all text files is combined "Item, Line ....."
5. If the text files do not have title like "Item, Line, ..." do not import
Is it possible to have all criteria listed above by running a macro?

removing duplicate rows and move other data frm rows to columns.xlsx.
I am attaching a sample excel sheet showing what I need to do.In the first tab, I have a list that includes duplicate rows (first column only). I want to remove those duplicate rows but I don't want to lose the data in the following columns which can be unique or duplicates as well.
see the desired result tab in the sheet to get an idea of what I am looking for as the end result.
Keep in mind that the actual source file I am working with could have up to 50000 row, and the expected results could be around 2000 rows. So nothing can be done manually.
Macro to find data from a huge database of items of equipment and find certain ones relevant to an area. I am using Excel 2003.
I have a spreadsheet which has three tabs.
Tab one has a list of equipment with a Ref (Col A), ID (Col B), mile (Col C) and chain (Col D) start and a mile (Col E) and chain (Col F) finish.
There are about 25 different Refs and IDs, but all rows have different Mile and Chains.
The second tab is an identical template of the third tab which is where I want the results to go (see below)
The third tab is raw data which list thousands of items but I want the macro to find the items which are in the first tab using the ref, ID, mile and chain information.
I have a huge data, from that i need to extract only 30% of data randomly.
Problem Set Types Numbers PP 8769 MM 8894 PP 9019 PP 9144 PP 9269 PP 9394 PP 9519 SS 9644 SS 9769 MM 9894 MM 10019 SS 10144 MM 10269 PP 10394 PP 10519 PP 10644 PP 10769 PP 10894 PP 11019
30% of Type PP is 3.6,That means i need 4 numbers to be extracted under type PP.And 30% of type is 1.2 That means i need 1 numbers to be extracted under type MM and so on...
I recorded a Macro to open a workbook, copy and paste data from one excel workbook to another, and close the workbook which was opened. Everything works fine except:
because of the amount of data that I am copying, I get a message box saying "There is a large amount of information on the Clipboard. Do you want to be able to paste this information into another prgoram later?" with a Yes/No button.
So now I have to click the "No" button before my macro closes the excel file. Is there a simple line of code that will by-pass this?
I am assuming it has to do with the following:
Windows("Book1.xls").Activate
ActiveWindow.Close , savechanges:=False
I have a lot of rows of data all divided with an empty row and if they are 6 or less all rows need to be entirely deleted any 7 or above need to be kept.
View 2 Replies View RelatedLet's say I have the following file which is imported via a macro which comes from a txt file. [Apologies it's 7mb zip file] http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/8/...mpNotFixed.zip
The way the txt file is that two rows make up one row, but SAP spits the data out into two rows. Now there are specific things that I need from these tabs. The way i can get this data is to perform sort by descending on the tabs. When you sort by a descending you get the data that i need [at the second half of the worksheet]:
Basically what I want to know when i create a macro, how can i get it do delete all the rows above a specific row. In the attached file, go to DataImport2.
I would like a macro to find the word "English" in column C and then delete all the row's above it. I cannot record this because it copy's the specific cells, which i do not need. DataImport3 is how the data comes out, All i do is sort by descending ... and i need help as stated above to delete all unnecessary data.
I simply want to delete the last 10 rows containing date from a worksheet. No criteria other than they contain data anywhere in the row.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with that I need to delete both rows if the data in one of the columns is the same. I know how to delete the duplicate row, but I need both rows deleted..........
From the example above I would want Rows 1,2 and 10,11 and 12,13 deleted based on the data in column D
In the sample below I need a macro that will delete the entire rows
where the data is repeated in a given column---that is, that it would delete
the repeat ones, leaving one of them. In this example, in the first set, all
that should be left are two rows which contain ME22N and MR8M in column E.
ME22N is repeated two more times and those rows need to be deleted.
If I could get a macro that would ask for the column to operate in, that would be
great for other spreadsheets where it would not necessarily be column E.

What is the fastest way to delete every cells that has data except for the first two rows?
I currently have this code but I find it a bit slow (and everything is replaced by column A to Z [which meets my need right now]).
Code:
Sub delete()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
lastrow = Activesheet.Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Range("a3:z" & lastrow).delete
End Sub
There must be a better way.

i am in need of a macro to delete the rows with data only which then leave the sheets cleared and ready to use the next day. if i create a macro to clear say fifty rows of data and then tomorrow there could be 75 rows of data and the macro will fail clearing the sheet. if there is a solution can i just say i can create macros but never stepped into them in visual basic to change them, i guess your thinking what do i do if the macro doesn't work. and the answer is indeed yes i delete it and start it from the begining again and again till i get it right.
two things on the attached sheet.
First problem: in column B, I have a formula based on contents of column A. However, the limitations of 7 nested IFs leaves me with errors - I need 3 more IFs. Is there a way around that?
Second problem: I need to show the row of the first (earliest time in column A) and the last (latest hour in column A) record for each name. I've been sorting by name and time, then manually deleteing the rows I don't need. I know there's a better way, but I can't find it!
with deleting duplicate entries in a spreadsheet that contains two names, a code number and a date. All rows with a duplicate number in column “B” should be deleted. Write a micro code? I have a few thousand of entries that need to be knocked out.
