Parsing Address Data

Oct 9, 2009

I have been given a set of data from one of our clients with company and address information in a Microsoft Word document. The data is not formatted into fields delimited by either a comma or tab and none of the fields has a heading of any sort. The data flows vertically rather than horizontally. I have imported the data into Excel in the hopes of being able to break out the data into an Excel or csv format in which the data can be imported into a Filemaker Pro database. Its format is the following:

Company Name (cell A:1)
Address (cell A:2)
City (cell A:3)
State (cell A:4)
Zip (cell A:5)
telephone (cell A:6)

I have tried recording a macro that moves the data from cell A:1 into cell B:1, then cell A:7 into cell B:2, etc. But have failed to get a macro to work that runs through all of the data in column A:A. The data is consistent - that is, there are only the 6 rows of data. Is it possible to write a code that moves the data from cell A:1 (the company name) into cell B:1, then skips 6 rows to cell A:7 (the next instance of a company name) and moves cell A:7 into cell B:2. The same procedure would then be run on the address, city, zip, and telephone.

Parsing The Data

Aug 5, 2009

I have arrived at the following in order to find the 5th "bar" in the data (samples below) :-


=SEARCH("|",$M127,SEARCH("|",$M127,SEARCH("|",$M127,SEARCH("|",$M127,SEARCH("|",$M127,1)+1)+1)+1)+1)
Samples:-
STR|6|L||396|3| STR|4|L|114|396|3| NHF||||1463|175| RND|4|H|111|2352|49|

Is it possible to reduce the repetition within the formula?

Parsing Pasted Data

Oct 13, 2008

macro that will parse data that has been pasted in to Excel from a text document. Once the macro is executed the pasted data will be sent to a separate spreadsheet and parsed horizontally with the data residing in is respective cell.

Here is an example of my data from text:
FIRST: Frank
MIDDLE: N.
LAST: Stien
ADDRESS: APT14
STREET: Halloween
ZIP CODE: 123456
CITY: Scaryville
STATE: Scary Ya
COUNTRY: Transilvania
COMMENT: N/A

Here is an example of my desired results:
A2:Frank, B2:N, C2:Stien, D2:APT14, E2:Halloween, F2:123456, G2:Scaryville, H2:ScaryYa, I2: Transilvania, J2:N/A

The data is always pasted in A2 on the first sheet, and varies somewhat in length but the format is always the same.

Parsing Data - Get Any Number That Is Before C And C Itself

Mar 21, 2012

Here is an example of some data I need to parse.

IN: CS, Test 2A-1, CBL, PHL, South Penn I/L, Loc P10, 49C-Loc P11B, AP 1.5

That code that I have so far:

select t.description,
REGEXP_SUBSTR(t.DESCRIPTION, '[^,]+', 1, 1) col_1,
REGEXP_SUBSTR(t.DESCRIPTION, '[^,]+', 1, 2) col_2,
REGEXP_SUBSTR(t.DESCRIPTION, '[^,]+', 1, 3) col_3,

[Code] .......

I have 2 problems:

1st problem is that for COL 7, all i want in there is the "49C", I'm currently getting " 49C-Loc P11B".

My ultimate goal is to get any number that is before the C and the C itself. The number before the C could be 1 to 3 digits.

2nd problem is Column 9. That snipit of data will always start with an "A", have another alpha, then a space, then a number. I'm trying to just get the number.

Parsing Data Strings Into Columns

May 4, 2009

I have a spreadsheet that gathers information from multiple cells and strings the data into a long string - each piece of data broken by a comma in the string.

In another spreadsheet, I copy this data string into column A on sheet 1 - starting on row 2 and down.

On sheet 2 - and this is where I need help - I would like to have a macro that will take each data string on Sheet 1 column A and parse it out into multiple columns but the same row on Sheet 2.

ColumnA Row2 Sheet1 -> changing to many columns on Sheet2 but still on the same row.

The data string always represents the same number of data components - its just a matter of breaking it out and placing each data piece into its own column.

I'm looking for a formula which can take my original data (column A) and "transform" it into what you see in column B.

I am transferring large amounts of files from various servers to my ftp and back out again. My original data are url filenames which of course, are named differently and not how you see it in my example.

The filenames themselves are preceeded by website names and varoius folder/path names. I edit the links to include various Usernames and Passwords and at the same time, rename the original filenames. Then I transfer the files to my ftp.

Most of the files have a ".part*.rar" extension at the end, so my formula has only included this scenario. Rather than manually editing my formula everytime a different extension is present (about 20-30% of the time), I would like to find a way to automatically look at a table/list of possible extensions (D2:D7) which are to be recognized for the sake of finding the end of the filename itself, so that I can rename (SUBSTITUTE) the original filename to that of my choice (cell D13) and of course, also include the original extension(s) of the source data (keeping this is important, especially in the cases where ".part*.rar's" are present). The list of extensions in cells E2:E7 are to be excluded from the new filename.

My present formula works fine for the editing of the username and passwords for various servers and for finding the beginning of the filename in the original url. It also works fine for finding the end of the filename (for the sake of renaming it), but only in cases where a .part*.rar" is present.

Excel 2010 :: Parsing Data From Text File To Create Scatter Plot?

Jan 11, 2014

I have a text file which is attached as "rawdata". It contains records of something (let's call it temperature) at different times on different days. My goal is to display a graph of temperature versus time so that I can visually analyze trends. I have hundreds of these files, all of different lengths. it is very important that I automate this process as much as possible.

Detail: (Here I describe what I have done so far; if this is inefficient or unnecessary, feel free to tell me) I open Excel 2010, click File, Open, and select the file that I want to parse. It is a TXT file, so the Text Import Wizard comes up. For step one, I select Fixed Width. I select File Origin: MS-DOS (PC-8). On step 2 of the wizard, I create column break lines to place all dates in the far left column. The next column contains the first column of numbers before the first dash (-). The next column contains only the dash - I will later select "ignore this column" to eliminate them. The next column contains the time stamps. I continue adding column breaks in the wizard until all of the data are parsed into columns in the same manner.

In step 3, I format the first column as "date (DMY)". The columns with the dashes I select "do not import". Everything else is "general". I click "finish", and the resultant workbook is attached, called "import".

Now, as to what I want to do: I want to display the "temperatures" as a graph vs a date/time axis. The reason I find this difficult is because the temperatures and times are not in neat columns, but are in 4 columns that go in a left-to-right and top-to-bottom progression and are broken up every few lines. (I am interested only in numbers that are displayed immediately to the left of a time-stamp. Therefore, the "record #"s should be ignored. We can delete the rows that say "record #" if can be done automatically.)

Transfer Large Volumes Of Name Address Data But Filtering Other Irregular Data?

Aug 14, 2014

I use excel and would like to know how to copy a large volume of address data but at the same time filtering out irrelevant data placed under each other in a row, in this case, air compressors air conditioning web address etc ( see below for example). I need the first 5 lines only. The rows of unwanted data are irregular i.e some have 10 lines, others 5 , and others 2 or one line which makes using a formula difficult as there is no consistency. The data eventually need to be placed horizontally in columns to be compared to other address lists. To make matters worse, the text data has been merged and wrapped.

Using Macro To Find Email Address In Address Book Of Outlook

May 22, 2014

I am struggling to find a macro which can look at a name in column 'BT' and search it in the address book of Outlook to then place the email address of that person in column 'ED'

There are 35,000+ people in the address book and there may be over 5 email addresses for one name, so is there any way a message can appear for the user to select which email address is correct if there is more than 1 contact for that name?

Parsing Text

Jul 2, 2009

I have a text file that has data at various time steps say 0,1,2,3 etc. In each loop, the output data is recoreded that contains numbers and strings. I want to parse certain info from this text file.

Say I am interested in reading the data for very last time step, so when I open the text file for reading, I want to move down to the Time Step 3 line. Then I want to read the text line by line, any time I encounter the word WIND, I want to skip five spaces and pick up the number that appears there. I want to paste this value to say cell A1 in a sheet called ParsedData. I want to continue reading till the end while picking all such values and filling the ParsedData sheet A2, A3, A4 ... cells till the end.

Cleaning Address Data

Jun 24, 2008

I have a database of sales records containing 6 address columns (C-H). I want to extract the country (which may be entered in any of the 6 columns) and place this in a separate column. I have a definitive list of countries on sheet 2 which I have saved as a named range (Country).

I would like to be able to set something up which searches the six address fields on sheet 1 and if a match is found against the Country range, enter this in a separate column (I). A non-code solution would be ideal as I am nowhere near that level yet and want to be able to understand what I am doing as far as possible!

Automated Web Query And Parsing

Nov 28, 2009

I am attempting to automatically (once a week) pull down the data from this site (http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/esc/oe/plan...bidsum_csv.php) which is posted in a csv and parse it. While this may seem to be a simple process, the people who posted the CSV did not take into account that there are dollar values in the data in the millions and billions. As a result, a normal comma parse does not work since it splits the values.

Parsing Cells Into Hyperlinks

May 4, 2006

I'm creating a table to store a large amount of data that will be continously updated over time. The table however will be viewed from a website, not as an Excel document, and I found a great add-in that generates small, clean HTML code to that end.

I'd like to do something else a little more tricky however ( for me ). I'd like every item in the first column to automatically hyperlink to a predesignated URL, and then parse the contents of that cell onto the end of the web address. If the cell contained multiple words, it would parse "+" between each word to create the proper address. The hyperlinks will be fetching database information from an exterior website.

For example, Column1 Row1 might say "Dog", so a hyperlink would be generated to [url] Column1 Row2 might say "Red Corvette", so a hyperlink would be generated to [url]

Imported Address Data In One Cell?

Jun 5, 2013

I have recently changed my software at my work from Sim-pro to Clik. I have about 4000 customer details that have been exported from Sim-pro to a CSV file but unfortunately some of the addresses are in one cell and need to be split up into 2 or 3 cell so it can be imported into Clik. In the Sim-pro program addresses are entered into one dialogue box e.g Address 1(house name - if applicable), Address 2(street name) & Address 3(suburb/area), after each line you press enter to separate them. The town/city, county and postcode do have their own entry box though and these do import normally into excel.

Unfortunately to import the addresses from the CSV file into Clik the Address parts 1,2 & 3 need to be in their own cells but obviously these are all in one cell(not every address have 3 parts some just use 1 address line which is fine). Can excel recognise the imported information from Sim-pro that is separated by 'enter' in that one cell and move them into another cell? I have tried using text to columns and selecting delimited and entering 'ALT 010' in the 'other' box but that doesn't work.I'm dreading the thought of going through 4000 addresses and cutting and pasting parts of the cells....
