Replace One Prefix With Another Prefix

UDC 01_001 template white.jpgBatch 01_385 template black.jpg
I have 100s of urls with prefix as the left column. I need to rename them to the right column format. UDC 01_001 will take number Batch 01_385, UDC 01_002 will use Batch 01_386 and so on.
I cant figure out how to do this in one quick macro instead of replace function.

Jun 3, 2014I have lists of numbers in column A. Based on the number in the cell, I would like to insert RO_ or RP_ before the number. I currently have two buttons for this, one named RO and the other RP and have simply recorded a macro of what I wish to do. However, instead of inserting RO_ or RP_ before the number the macro replaces the hole lot with "RP_10" or "RO_10" as this was the cell i recorded the macro on. How do I make it so it just inserts the Prefix rather than replace the contents of the cell.
Currently my code for one of the buttons is as follows;

Making 1 Cell Equal Another Cell Including Its Comment?
May 18, 2014I have a spreadsheet with some cells which return values using INDEX and MATCH to bring back the entire details of a person based on there membership number. However I require the comments to be attached with the returned values. The comments have there image in, rather than just text.
I have found some answers with vba, which do the process, however you had to manually enter the cell, from which the comment was to be copied from, into a pop up box. This involved finding the box myself to then select the box to take the comment from. In doing this I had found and read the comment, which is the is the process I'm trying to bypass.
Making Cell Mandatory
Aug 21, 2012In Column B of my spreadsheet i have a drop down that only allows users to enter "Yes" or "No"
Is it possible to make Column C a required field if "No" is selected in column B.

Same thing for cell b5 then i would like cell c5 filled out before they continue using the sheet. etc.
Making Cell A Hyperlink
Jun 2, 2009I have a table which as a few columns, the left column is called name and the far right one is called email. The name cells have a drop down list which refers to another workbook with peoples names, when you select a name other cells are automatically populated using the vlookup function such as phone number, email etc. In the workbook it is referencing too with all the data, the email address are like a hyperlink which creates an outgoing mail if you click on it, is there a way to have this in the table as nothing happens when you ckick on the text.

Feb 19, 2007I have a spreadsheet with about 1000 rows. This is data that I've imported from another source and there are blank rows scattered throughout. I am trying to add columns together, but when I cut and past the sum formula, I end up with a 0 in a cell that should be blank. I've tried various iserror, isblank, isnull, empty functions, but am still getting a 0.
Here my example of one function I've tried:
a b c
1. 50 50 50 =if(isblank(a1:c1)," ",sum(a1:c1)) 150
2. 20 20 20 =if(isblank(a2:c2)," ",sum(a2:c2)) 60
3. =if(isblank(a3:c3)," ",sum(a3:c3)) 0
I would like that zero answer in row 3 to be blank otherwise I have to manually go through all the rows and delete these 0's out or cut and paste the sum function just on the rows with numbers.
How To VLOOKUP With Prefix
Dec 12, 2013G1 = will be one of these 12 choices: 01 January or 02 February or 03 March...or 12 December
K2 = Date I performed the task
D2 = Name of Inspector
I usually manually input on G2 the name of the report.
Example:
G1 = 12 December
K2 = 12/05/2013
D2 = Chris Mart
Therefore, I need to manually input on D2 = 13-12-MARTCL
Where....
MARTCL comes from a table where I have all the inspectors and their corresponding username.
That table is O2:P63. O1= Title of row (Username), P1 = Title of row (Name of inspector)
13 = year extracted from 12/05/2013
12 = Month of inspection (which can be extracted from G1 or K2)
How do I use cell reference AND VLOOKUP to create 13-12-MARTCL on G2?
Add A Text Prefix
Oct 25, 2008I have a colummn of data (text data). For my purposes I would need to add a prefix text to every single cell contained in that column; for instance, if I have a cell with a text "hellohowareyou" ,
I would need to change it by adding to it a constant prefixation text "es_ES@" so that the final result would be displayed like "es_ES@hellohowareyou" , and so on for the rest of the cells under the same column.
VBA - File Prefix Only?
Jan 3, 2009Say I have a workbook called test1.xls, where the number 1 at the end of the file name is variable. Tomorrow that character could be 2 so the file would become test2.xls etc (or could even be a letter for what it matters).
Is there a way in Visual Basic to recognize that the final character is not fixed but can get different values each time? Or in other words to recognize that the file starts with "test", and that whatever follows that prefix is not relevant?
For example....
If ActiveWorkbook.name = "'test*.xls" Then...
where * (star) could be any character.
As a Windows analogy, I am thinking of the * (star) character when one searches a certain directory for, say, Excel files (*.xls etc). Obviously, in VBE that doesn't work, and the star is just a character like any other.
Trying To Use IF Statement For Prefix Only
Jul 1, 2006I’m making a database to forklifts. Most used code I have found from this forum. I haven’t found a way how to copy existing formulas on summary sheet so that sheet name is also changed in formula. I attached also my workbook, but it’s not in English language but in Estonian. I hope that isn’t problem.
If pressed button on summary sheet (“Pealeht”) then existing blank sheet are copied and renamed. On userform1 is textbox3 which value added to summary sheet, also combobox4 value added to summary sheet. Now I want that if pressed commandButton1 on userform1 then all formulas what exist on summary sheet from F6 to CW6 are also copied to next row and in formula sheet name changed. My second question is what to write that if new sheet created then it goes always to end of existing sheets. Right now I’m using code what copies new sheet after blank sheet but it’s not satisfying me.

Making A Cell With A Formula Appear Empty
Mar 16, 2009I have a chart with blank values in some cases. I have set up the chart to show those values as gaps, which relies on the blank cell being empty. However, my blank cells have a formula along the lines of: if (condition,value,"")
So the chart does not consider them blank, presumably either because the formula is in there, or because "" is not the same as blank. How can I make this cell appear blank for the purposes of the chart?
Making Checkbox Be On Or Off Depending Upon Value In Another Cell
Jun 15, 2012What I would like to to in Excel:
When I leave the current cell,
1. evaluate the contents of the cell I am leaving (essentially determining if it is empty or not)
2. If it is empty, do nothing
If it is not empty (or maybe if it has a number value in it)
3. Then uncheck a box (a check box form control)
In Access, I would enter code in On Leave property. It would essentially change the value in the text box that would be named or have some other unique method of identifying it.
So I have two issues:
1) In Excel, I do not know to make a macro fire upon leaving a cell
And
2) I do not know how to refer to the properties of a specific check box control. that is, there will be many of them in the spreadsheet and I do not see how to name them. Clicking of properties for the check box gave no hint of it.
Making Cell Range Adaptable
Nov 26, 2006The following cell formula calls a fixed range of cells to execute the associated User Defined Function. The problem is that the data set sometimes covers a wider range and sometimes a smaller range. The cell formula is:
=Smooth(a,g,bw,Trends!A8,Trends!$A$8:$A$190,Trends!$I$8:$I$190)
This requires going in manually each time and readjusting the ranges for Trends!$A$8:$A$190 and Trends!$I$8:$I$190. ( X and Y values for the function)
Is there a way read the data length and have the cell formula adjust based on the actual data range?

Filtering In Dropdowns With A Prefix
Feb 20, 2010I'm not a novice but this might be something simple I didn't realize. I am creating a quoting sheet for a steel fab company. I have created dopdowns for the different materials and sizes but the dropdown is way too big. I need to have a column that helps me filter the dropdown more so I don't have to scroll through litterally hundreds of steels to find the one I need. The good news is that most steels have prefixes that make them easier to filter.
For example:
L-3x3x1/2
L-2x2-1/2x1/4
C6@8.2#
C8@11.5#
W12@16.0#
W21@44.0#
What I'm looking for is a way to have a dropdown that has all of the prefixes (L, C, MC, W, PL, etc) in it and when I select one of them the next column (the actual description of the steel as shown above) will only give me the specific steels for that steel shape (L,C,W,etc)
Currently I'm putting one row of say the MC shapes and one row of the C shapes and one row of the L shapes then copying them as needed. It's a lot of work and you can easily make a mistake.
Vlookup Based On Prefix
Feb 11, 2009I have a table like below
A B
1 x1234 value
2 y1234 value
If I want to look for all values that start with "x", is there a way to do it within a vlookup formula? Something like: vlookup("x*", A1:B2, 2, False). I know there's other ways to do this, but I want it all contained in one formula instead of splitting the A column using LEFT(A1, 1).
Removing 1- Prefix In Phone #'s
Apr 9, 2009I read the thread below on how to utilize the Subsitute function to remove periods and thought about being able to use it for this. However, I have some phone #'s in my list that contain multiple 1- scenarios in them because the area code or 3-digit prefix sometimes include a 1- also. How do I make the formula only look at the 1- for long distance and not any other 1- found in the phone #? I want to remove all of the 1- for long distance because we are trying to use a new autodialer that is pre-programmed with the 1-.
