Inserting Characters Into Cells
Aug 4, 2009
I have recently purchased a new GPS for my fishing boat. I am trying to transfer my old coordinates from one unit to the other. I am using a .csv file to achieve this. Can some kind please let me know (and possibly tell me) if there is way to insert characters and spaces in to multiple cells. I have over 800 individual coordinates to modify to the new gps and this would take a long time to achieve individually.
I need to replace this: 12.34.567 to this: 12 34.567 N
and this: -1.23456 to this: 001 23.456 W

and need to be changed to
23-45-67

I need to insert 00 if the string of text = 13 in a specific column.
eg. Column K can contain any amount of lines of data. The data will either be 15 or 13 characters in length. If its length is 15 its fine, if its 13 I need to get it to 15 characters.
The first 6 characters are letters so if the length is only 13 I need to add the 00 in after the last letter.

I want to use the SumIf function to sum cells when other cells begin with certain characters.
I've toyed with a few ideas of how this could work, but i don't know how to specify that the cells need to begin with certain characters. The cells that would be the criteria and the ones that would be summed come out of an Oracle database (and i have no control over the way they're pulled out - yet) so the beginning characters are connected to extremely unique information, so i dont want that to be included in the if part, for obvious reasons.

This problem just appeared recently, as if out of the blue, and it seems to affect all of my old work sheets as well as new ones. I am using 2002 version. When I input any number in any cell the program automatically inserts a decimal point. Thus 1 becomes .1, 12 becomes 1.2, 123 becomes 12.3 etc. I have tried formatting the cells to "general" and to to "number" with no change. The thing that really gets me is that old saved worksheets exhibit this behavior as well. I can work around the problem by inputting 1. or 12. which then gives me the entry I am after but I've never needed to do this before.

I have a spreadsheet that has 5 columns, with the headers:
Code
Description
Colour
Size
Price
There are over 500 lines on this spreadsheet.
The Blue headers have all the information filled in, whereas the Red headers do not.
I have a second tab on that spreadsheet with the below information filled in.
Code
Description
Colour
Size
Price
Now my problem is that I need to merge the 2 tabs into 1...however....
The codes on tabs are not in the same order, and on the first tab, they are interspersed with merged rows with the category name, whereas the second tab they are just a full list.

My current issue is that I need to enter a $ into multiple formulas before cell numbers without having to do it manually, is there a way to do this? I cannot drag the cell across with the $ already entered as this will change the cell reference in an adjacent cell.
If this is not clear, what my scenario is that I have a 250 x 2500 cell table. Going across the x axis the formula is: J2-AVERAGE(J$2:J$11) then the next cell K2-AVERAGE(K$2:K$11) and so on. I now want a $ to appear before J and K without having to manually insert $ into every formula, so that I can drag the columns down varying the column number.

I have two sections to this spreadsheet: 1) the entity section; 2) the order section.
I have created a macro to insert rows in both these sections. The macro appears to work fine for the first section but not for the second section. The problem I cannot solve is in respect of cells D9:D10. The macro is as follows:

This may sound trivial, but how do you insert a column to the right of the current selection?
If I do Selection.EntireColumn.Insert that inserts a column to the left. Anyone know how to do this?

How do I insert pictures into Excel's cells, so as to get a mosaic of say 2x3 pics?
Trying to just drag a pic onto a cell does not make the pic sticks. I need the pics to behave like in frames in HTML, including moving, resizing etc. Same for video clips that I want running within the cells.

I receive a report that is generated by another program. One column contains the address, city, state, and zip (5 and 10 digit) with no coma separators. Macro that would add comas before the Zip, state, and city so that I can use the text to columns tool in excel.
here is an example of the column
7935 COUNCIL PL SUITE 200 MATTHEWS NC 28105
223 WRENWOOD LN CHARLOTTE NC 28211
1125 BIRCH ST APT A ROGERS CITY MI 49779-1406
PO BOX 1376 NEW YORK NY 10018
428 C ST APT 301 SAN DIEGO CA 92101
4682 MISSION BV SAN DIEGO CA 92109
I need it to look like this:
7935 COUNCIL PL SUITE 200 ,MATTHEWS ,NC ,28105
223 WRENWOOD LN ,CHARLOTTE ,NC ,28211
1125 BIRCH ST APT A ,ROGERS CITY ,MI ,49779-1406
PO BOX 1376 ,NEW YORK ,NY ,10018
428 C ST APT 301 ,SAN DIEGO ,CA ,92101
4682 MISSION BV ,SAN DIEGO ,CA ,92109
Then I can run the text to columns and it will split the text into 4 columns.

I have spreadsheet that contains about 25,000 rows of client addresses. The columns/data is set up as follows for example
ColumnA...........ColumnB..................ColumnC
Jim Smith..........123 Apple Road.........New York NY 10022-3456
Tina Jone..........456 Apple Road.........San Diego CA 12345-1111
Bob Smith..........789 Peach Lane........Seattle WA 59802-3344
Tim Smith..........4255 Lime Lane.........Missoula MT 59802-3333
I am having an issue with the vendor whom needs to do a mailing of all 25,000 clients. They have indicated that they require comma delimited data to create the mailing. In order to do this, I need to place a comma after the city and a comma after the state.
So as in the first row of data the cells looks like this:
New York NY 10022-3456
The vendor needs it to look like this:
New York, NY, 10022-3456
Is there a function and/or VBA procedure to put commas in where I need them?

I have several lists of hundreds of emails that I need to list in an email string via Lotus Notes. I need a space and comma in between each name, ex:
john.doe@dm.com, john.doe1@dm.com, john.doe2@dm.com
I am using the below formula manually but it is taking too long. How to automate this? Is there a way to create the space and comma for as long as the list is?
=CONCATENATE(B6,", ",B7,", ",B8,", ",B9,", ",B10,", ",B12,", ",B13,", ",B14,", ",B15,", ",B16,", ",B17)

I'd like help writing a single formula that assigns either a numerical 1 or 0 to a cell based on values from two other cells.
By way of background, I'm working with three columns. Cells in column F contains values from 1 to 4. Cells in column G contain values from 5 to 11. Cells in column H are currently blank.
I need a single formula that will insert either a numerical 1 or a 0 into column H according to the following conditions.If F3 = 1 and G3 = 5 or 6 or 7 then let H3=1 otherwise let H3=0
If F3 = 2 and G3 = 7 or 8 or 9 then let H3=1 otherwise let H3=0
If F3 = 3 and G3 = 9 or 10 or 11 then let H3=1 otherwise let H3=0
If F3 = 4 and G3 = 9 or 10 or 11 then let H3=1 otherwise let H3=0

I am operating Excel for Mac 2011 version 14.4.2
I have a list of 1500 addresses in a column, something like, 5VistaTerrace, and I need to insert a space between the number and each of the words so that it reads 5 Vista Terrace in the cell.
All of the addresses are different, some with 4 or 5 words like 5ABrownBayCourt... that particular one I would want to read 5A Brown Bay Court in the end.
Is there a formula or excel trick I can perform to save me the time of manually adding the spaces?

When I try to insert a row, Excel displays the warning "cannot shift nonblank cells off the worksheet". I understand what the warning means but there are no nonblank cells at the bottom of my worksheet! Just to be sure, I have selected the bottom-most rows, cleared them, deleted them, and everything else I can think of. The warning still appears.

I have some text that I need to format, at the moment it looks like this:
[note name="Person A" label="0"[Person A's information]/note]
[note name="Person B" label="0"[Person B's information]/note]
etc
I would like to extract the Name (Person A) and the actual note itself (Person A's information) into two columns. I tried using "Text to Columns" as I have in the past, but there is a problem. Many of the information fields contain hundreds of characters, with the largest being ~2500 characters. The text to columns works does its job but cuts out a lot of data (anything over 255 characters).
I'm using MS Excel 2000
The text contained HTML codes, so they have not appeared correctly I have replaced with []

I have a worksheet with four data columns A,B,C,D starting in row 2. I want to add between every row, exactly 11 blank rows. So if we have:
Code:
A B C D
1 5 3 4
2 7 6 3
3 9 1 3
the end result should be:
Code:
A B C D
1 5 3 4
2 7 6 3
3 9 1 3
Do I necessarily need a macro for this? Or is there another quick and creative way to achieve this result?
