Match Entire String

Dec 28, 2008

I am trying to use cells.find to find a cell containing "Date". However, it also finds cells with "Start Date" and "End Date" and any other instance of the word date. Is there anyway to make it match ONLY IF the cell contains EXACTLY "Date" and nothing else?

Delete Entire Column If Row Has Certain String?

May 5, 2014

I have fixed headers on row 16, from columns A-AC.

I want to be able to delete the entire column, if the row has a certain string, such as "Chart ID" .

I also want to expand it to include other strings such as "Month" and "Source" . So if it contains any of these words, the columns should be deleted. It should be an exact match (as other headers contain the word "month").

Copy Entire Row If Cells In Row Contains Specific String

Apr 3, 2013

I'm trying to copy entire row from sheet "source" to sheet "output".

Condition: If cell or cells in range (E7: lastcoll, lastrow) value is "A" then copy entire row.

Find the excel template in attachment.

My problem is that my macro is copying particular row, as many times as many "A" finds.

I want to copy entire row just once doesn't matter how many cells with "A" are in particular row.

VB:
'function to find last column a change letter of column to number
Private Function ColLetter(LastCol)
ColLetter = Split(Cells(1, LastCol).Address, "$")(1)
End Function

Excel 2010 :: Copy Entire Row If Cell Contains Specific String

Apr 5, 2012

I am a total newb to excel and vb, and only have minimal experience in embedded C.

I have a very large spreadsheet with 9 columns and the max number of rows that excel supports (office 2010).

What I want to do is copy the entire row of data IF a cell in that row contains a specific string I'm interested in.

If it's necessary, the column that contains the values that would trigger a row copy would be column C and the data would be pasted onto a new sheet.

VBA Delete Duplicate Rows If Entire Row Is A Match

Match Words To A String Using VLookup

May 10, 2014

Take a look at the attached workbook.

Tab 'Internal' is an example of our internal customers and how much they spent with us.
Tab 'External' is a list of companies in our area that we could do business with, it came from a marketing firm. Columns B:J contain my formulas. B is my lookup.

I need to match the two sheets together and pull the dollars spent from Internal to External. The problem is that the marketing firm did not use the same naming conventions that are in our systems. This means a simple Vlookup will not work.

Here is what I did so far: used VBA and formulas to break apart the company names in External, then using a modified Vlookup to match the words to the names in Internal. My accuracy rate is less than 1%.

Criteria To Match Part Of String

Dec 3, 2008

I have a worksheet that I need to filter on 8 columns. I need to do this in the form (Col A = Bob OR SAM) AND (Col B = Apple OR Pear OR Banana) AND... etc for 8 columns.

I started this thread and we reached the conclusion that I needed either a macro to list out all the possible combinations on separate lines, or a complex criteria formula.

I'm trying to put together the complex criteria, but I am further stumped by the fact that some of the columns contain multiple terms with comma delimiters, so I'm trying to match part of a string, rather than a whole string, so the usual = ISNUMBER(MATCH(Sheet1!A2,Sheet2!$A:$A,0)) won't work. I tried using =ISNUMBER(FIND(Sheet2!$A:$A,Sheet1!A2)) instead, but I think this fails because it should be an array formula. I tried normal entering and CSE entering, and neither work, so I think this is a dead end.

Formula To Match Partial Text String?

Jun 3, 2014

I'm working on a formula to make it enable a part of the text then return the best possible match. Below is my formula

=MATCH("*"&$A11&"*",'[Customer Master List - 05.30.xlsx]Export Worksheet'!$B$82:$B$1298,0)

However, it works with some text but won't work for some.

For example, I have this text CARE-A-LOT, INC and in the master sheet there is a similar text like this CARE-A-LOT. I want it to return CARE-A-LOT as this the best match possible.

How To Find Exact Text String Match

Jun 16, 2014

In the four rows of text below I'm trying to match each gas stick to its corresponding gasline.

I think I can count over to "GAS STICK" and get the number. <15> From that point I can count over to "," (comma) and get that number. <26> So the gas stick will be between the first number and one less than the second number. <GAS STICK 1>

I need completing this code to place a the line or stick number in a cell B of the same row. Column A would have the description and column B of the same row would either be "1" or "11" respectively. Column C would be the shortened description (GAS STICK 1).

1] "HUNGA, DUNGA, GAS STICK 1, THINGY"
2] "DOHICKY, GAS STICK 11, THINGUS"
3] "SCAPPEN, DAPPER, GASLINE 1"
4] "SUCH, AND, SUCH, GASLINE 11"

VBA / Match String Or Long Data Type

Nov 5, 2012

I'm trying to use application.match() but I'm running into a issue where I don't know if I'll be matching a string or long data type...

Here's the snippet of code:

Code:
' UNIT DATA
' Set Unit#
s1 = ActiveSheet.Pictures(Application.Caller).Name
iLen = Len(s1)
s1 = Mid(s1, 2, iLen - 2)
' Set Sel Ex Work Date
iCheck = Application.Match("MACHINE_NUMBER", Sheets("Allocation").Columns(1), 0)

[code]....

How can I get application.match to look for strings if s1 = "ABC123" or numbers if s1 = "123456"

I've tried dim variant and s1 + 0... But, haven't come up with a solution.

Match Text String & Split Output

Oct 9, 2006

I have a spreadsheet with Approx 900 rows of information that has been entered incorrectly.

Spreadsheet has 6 columns.
Contact Name
Contact Number
Company Name
Company Account Number
Order Date
Order Numbers

Every Order should have its own line - However I have approx 900 rows where the order numbers have multiple entries instead of single entries.

All the order numbers end "LO" and there all 8 digits long.

I wanted to know if its possible to use excel to look for all instances of "LO" in the column Order Numbers and delete the original Row and replace it with 3 rows with the same information.

Example:
Attached to this post!

I have 15 historic files each approx 35000 rows and I suspect there are more errors

Search For Substring Within String Of Text Which Is Exact Match?

Jan 6, 2014

Let us say I have the following text in Cell A1. "There is a fault in the cal cycle.Need to update the records." And in cell A2 I have the following text. "Called for backup assistance. There is an issue with numbers." I cells B1 & B2 I need a particular formula which searches for the substring "cal" exactly and returns true if present. In cell A1, we have "cal" in the text. So it should return true for me in cell B1.

However in cell B2 I need false to be returned even though I have "Called" inside the text. I need true to be shown only for those cells where we have the exact text "cal" and no text characters in front or back of it.

Macro To Paste Values If Cell Value If Match Text String?

In Sheet1, column Y looks into Sheet2 and returns the status of that specific order - the result displayed in column Y will be either blank or a variety of text strings (eg. received, pending etc).

I need to make a macro that looks into all the cells of column Y in Sheet 1 and copy/pastes as value into that same cell only if the formula in that cell returns text string "Received". It should not affect the other cells where the formula is returning either blank or a different text string.

Using VLOOKUP To Fill Data With A Partial String Match Separated With A Dash

Aug 18, 2014

I have a list of items in Column A and size info on Column B i want to being in the info to another sheet with a vlookup but the problem is that I have a lot of items with different colors so after the item no. it has a dash and a letter or two for the color so i want to bring into my new sheet all info.

I have in my old sheet for all items regardless of color so for instance in my old sheet i will BR1000-EM and then in my new sheet i will have BR1000-R and BR1000-SA and BR1000-YC how do i make a vlookup it should only lookup the values in both sheets only till the dash (i cant use a certain no. like left,6 because the item no can have more then 6 but it always has a dash when it has a color code) also not all items have dashes so the dash is not always there but when its there i would like that the lookup should stop by the dash.

Delete Rows If Column Has Fewer Than X Matches To Part String Match

May 5, 2008

I have data sets on multiple worksheets within a workbook (over 70). Based on the begining of a string, I need to count all instances with that begining, and if there are fewer than 12 instances, delete the entire row.

Data set example:

In this example, I need to count each instance of rows starting with 1/* - 9/*, and delete rows as mentioned. In other data sets the string might start Gi1/*, and so on. In the following code, if I do not loop, and only test against 1 value type, and ONLY run it once, it works. As soone as I try to loop through all possibilities, or run the macro a second time, it blanks out the entire worksheet, starting at row 3.

Dim c As Long
c = Worksheets(i).Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
With Range("A3:A" & c)
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Worksheets(i).Columns(1), "1/*") < 12 Then
. AutoFilter field:=1, Criteria1:="1/*"
.Offset(1).Resize(.Rows.Count - 1, 1).EntireRow.Delete
.AutoFilter

I have also tried to concatenate a variable with my CountIf criteria, but that fails miserably.
