Separate Numbers From Characters That Are Separated By Comma

Feb 17, 2010

For example the cell contains 1,M2,M7,M1,M8:2,M15,M9,M4,M5:3,M3,M6,M14,M11,M12:4,M10,M13 and I need to create M1, M2 , M3 ..etc columns and attach the coresponding number to each one of them. For instance M2,M7,M1,M8will get 1 and so forth and so on. I was acutally thinking using the Notepad to replace the , with a TAB space and paste them back in to my data set and create some IF statements. On the other hand running VBA scrip would make it even easier. However I would preffer to use a function (that I am not 100% familiar with) and leave the VBA scrip out of the question for the moment.

Find Numbers Next To Specific Text Characters In A Cell

Oct 15, 2012

I'm faced with receiving data for time, in a text format, as follows:

Example of possible cell contents...

20secs
40m20secs
2h40m20secs

I'm not interested in the secs value but need to isolate the h (hours) and m (mins) values to use in another formula as numbers. The time could be shown in either of the above formats with either; (a) just secs, (b) mins & secs or (c) hrs, mins & secs... and of course the hours or mins values could be 1 or 2 digits in length. How can I determine (using formula only, not vba) what the values for hours and/or mins are dependent upon what is present?

Sort Column Of Number & Numbers With Alpha Characters Attached

Jan 7, 2010

Have a spreadsheet that contains a column of 3 digit numbers as well as 3 digit numbers with 2 trailing alpha characters.

Example:

376
377
421
376AB
376XY
377NC
421GQ
421EF

Need to sort by this column, but, with the parameter of sorting first by the numeric only, and then by numeric with alphas. So, the above list would look like this sorted properly:

376
376AB
376XY
377
377NC
421
421EF
421GQ

VBA - Generating Random Characters In Cell With Format Of Yymmdd / Randcharacters / Numbers

Mar 29, 2014

I would like to ask if there's a way to generate a random 4 characters in one cell and the specific random 4 characters that has been generated will be copied until the last cell of my preferred choice?

The format that I want is that:

yymmdd / random 4 characters that has been generated / 4 numbers that will increment sequentially

For example:
in A1: 140330QWER0001
in A2: 140330QWER0002
in A3: 140330QWER0003
.
.
.
.
.

But here's the catch, the file that I am using when closed then opened again will generate another random 4 characters with the same format. If i opened this file tomorrow:

for example the date for tomorrow is March 31, 2014, the file will do:

in A1: 140331TYUI0001
in A2: 140331TYUI0002
in A3: 140331TYUI0003
.
.
.
.
.

I tried to record it, the Rand() function when copied will generate another 4 characters.

Remove Non-alpha Characters From Alphanumerics With Option To Remove Numbers

Aug 8, 2009

I have found a very useful UDF for removing non-alpha characters from strings. (See below, Credit for posting to Stanley D Grom - Ozgrid post Removing Non-alpha Characters From Text).

Option Explicit

Private Function RemoveCharacters(InString As String) As String
Dim intLoopCounter As Integer
Dim intStringLength As Integer
Dim intASCIIVal As Integer
intStringLength = Len(InString)
InString = LCase(InString)
For intLoopCounter = 1 To intStringLength
intASCIIVal = Asc(Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1))
If intASCIIVal >= 97 And intASCIIVal <= 122 Then
RemoveCharacters = RemoveCharacters + Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1)
End If
Next intLoopCounter
End Function

Two requests:

1. Could the UDF be modified such that any part of a string contained within brackets is also removed (e.g. "NLGA High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlgahighstreeten")?

2. Can an argument be added to the format of the UDF, such that numbers (0 to 9) are either included or excluded (e.g. RemoveCharacters(A1,1) where the argument 1 would include any numbers (0 to 9), so "NLGA2003 High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlga2003highstreeten6")? blankor 0would exclude these numbers, i.e. would return "nlgahighstreeten"

Referring Cells

Jun 17, 2009

I am trying to refer to a cell. Not sure if thats a good way to put it.

Example: I am in Cell B1 and I want to have a formula that says if C2 is 5 then A1 is 5, else B1 is 500.

I need A1 to be completely blank with the formula only in B1 and C2 has the number typed in it.

How can I put a number in A1 without having a formula or any text in that cell (A1)?

Referring To Worksheet Name In A Formula

Feb 20, 2010

I have the following formula that I want to copy to a worksheet named Tankersley:

=IF('Tankersley Input'!B5=0,"",'Tankersley Input'!B5)

I would like the formula to read the worksheet name rather than entering the word Tankersley directly, so that if I copy it to another worksheet named Tyson, the formula would read:

=IF('Tyson Input'!B5=0,"",'Tyson Input'!B5)

How would this formula need to read?

Referring To Other Workbooks Via VBA Code

Oct 5, 2009

I'm trying to use VBA to write from one workbook to another. I'm trying to populate other workbooks from a single 'control' workbook with a template.

I've managed to figure out how to open up Excel workbooks within a directory (this needs to be done multiple times) supplied by the user, then retrieve information from it to be collated, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to write to the file that I've opened.

I've got the code below, and it's very scrappy as I've been trying lots of different things but nothing's worked. I'll try and highlight as best as I can where I'm having difficulties, as I get the "object not defined" or some such error.

Referring To Sheet Name Through Variable In VBA?

Feb 21, 2012

I have a workbook with a list of staff in it. The format is: the manager's name is in row 1, the 8 or so team members are listed below. And again in row 20, there is a manager's name with 8 or so team members listed below. This is duplicated over many columns and multiple sheets. The sheets are all named after the ops-managers who manage all the managers on their respective sheet. The book is called "stf.xls"

I'm using the following code to look up a staff member and return who their manager and ops-manager is to the relevant cells in a different workbook:

Code:
Sub AdvisorFind()
Dim Wsht As Worksheet
Dim Slookfor As String

[Code]....

My problem is how to return the manager's name for a staff member in the middle of the book. Activesheet. is the last worksheet so no good. Wsht.name.Range(manager) is what I want to do but I don't know the correct syntax.

Referring To Chart In VBA Code

Jul 31, 2012

My first version is this:

Code:
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 1").Activate
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = "=DATA!$A$8:$A$19

Works without problems, but I really don't want to use "ActiveSheet" there

I changed it to:

Code:
Dim chtTR As ChartObject
Set chtTR = shtData.ChartObjects("Chart 1")
chtTR.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = "=DATA!$A$8:$A$19"

and it gives me

"Object doesn't support this property or method."

Referring To Closed Workbook

Mar 31, 2007

I have the following formula to extract a specific cell from a closed workbook. It works fine. I want to be able to make the file name refer to a another cell so I can create a spinner to change it. For example:

='C:Documents and SettingsTom Desktoplabor[01_032407.xls]Stats'!A4

Cell A1 would be 01_032407, and I would replace [01_032407] with [A1]
but it does not work.

Referring To Named Ranges

Dec 11, 2007

I'm creating a button so as to input a chart where the user inputs the name of the range that they want the chart to hold. The named ranges are dynamic thus I want the graph to also be dynamic but when added the source is simply the range of the name rather than the name itself.

Is there anyway I can enter in a VB variable into quotations marks so that it simply writes that.

Referring To Multiple Sheets

Feb 24, 2010

I have every month a product demandplan (for each of 150 models) in a workbook. This workbook contains a seperated sheet for every sales region and is saved on network.

What I want to do is a new workbook be able to pull in the information from the closed demand plan. That part is easy. The hard part is that I want to select the sales region from droplist and than get demand per model. VLOOKUP won't work since I can not select the region and INDIRECT doesn't work with closed workbook.

If Statement Referring To Another Worksheet

Mar 8, 2007

I am trying to insert an If statement using the

With Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range("c" & rBegRow).Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=IF(Sheet1!R[-8]C[4]<>0,Sheet1!R[-8]C[4]*-1,Sheet1!R[-8]C[5]*-1)"
Range("C" & rBegRow).Select
Selection.Copy
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End With

The reason is that once the formula is inserted in to the cell in worksheet 2 then I drag it down kind of like a copy paste so it changes automatically the if statement cell reference to worksheet 1 automatically. the trouble I am having is that I do not want to use the R[#]C[#] since when the contents of the information changes the formula does not work properly. If i substitute them for G9 instead of the R[-8]C[4] and H9 R[-8]C[5] but it inputs it in the actual excel worksheet as =IF(Sheet1!'G9<>0,Sheet1!'G9*-1,Sheet1!'H9*-1) therefore creating a value error.

If Function Referring To Two Cells

which is meant to return the number 1 in a cell if C38 has the letter C in it and F38 is equal or greater than 0. I have met both criteria and it returns an error of #VALUE! What am i doing wrong? NB in F38 there is a Vlookup formula that returns a number (in this case it is 0).

Difference In Two Methods Of Referring To Other Workbooks?
