We have a spreadsheet of our customer's info, to send to our collection agency; when we export it puts parenthesis around the area code and adds a hyphen in the number.
Also it puts commas in the figures. And I need the slashes gone from the date - is there a simple way to do this?
I tried formatting but it doesn't take out the () or ,
I'm trying to separate text that have commas in between. I've got a column that contains commas and a few cells in those columns have commas and bracket. The problem occurs when there are more than two values WITHIN in the bracket that are separated by commas. How can parse the text in such a way where what ever is within the bracket remains in tact? For example: Controls, Motors, Transformers (LVoltage, High Performance, Medium Voltage). The goal is to separate everything before a comma but for Transformers I would like it to remain as 'Transformers (LVoltage, High Performance, Medium Voltage)'.
For example, i have some data :
123,123567
12,778
9822,1
8267,222223
then, i want to permanently remove the comma, so the result :
123
12
9822
8267
Because if i use format cells -> use 1k separator, the data actually still contain the comma (even if the looks is 123, but in the formula bar, it stated 123,123567).
Suppose I have data in a range that was imported from "somewhere". Some of the data is preceded by team rankings in parenthesis...like so:
Alabama
(21) Boston College
Notre Dame
(10) Oklahoma
Texas
Florida State
(2) Florida State
I want to strip the data of the team rankings, (as well as any brackets and spaces before the team name). Is there a macro I could write to do this?
I have a spread sheet with 2000 fax numbers in the format:
(555) 123-1234
I am going through and reformatting them to read:
555123-1234 or 5551231234
Is there cell format code or some way to do this quickly rather than going through each cell and deleting the spaces and ()?
I have a spreadsheet with 900 rows. All of the rows hold different information. The first column has contents such as this:
This is the text (please remove me)
This is some more text (I need to be removed too)
I want to remove from every cell, everything in the brackets - so everything from the first open brackets to the end of the cell contents). Every cell is a different length and the information within the brackets is different.
For a spreadsheet that contains info with opening and closing parentheses in the cells I'm testing on, I am having problems getting multiple IF statements to work together in the same formula. I can get them to work separately in different cells, but when I try to combine them in the same cell, I get the #VALUE error. Here is what I'm working with:
In cell G7 I have the text: Fort Fraser (1)
In cell H7 I have the formula: =IF((RIGHT(G7,1)=")")*AND(MID(G7,LEN(G7)-2,1)="("),LEFT(G7,LEN(G7)-4),G7)
In cell G8 I have the text: Fort St. James (11)
In cell H8 I have the forumla: =IF((RIGHT(G8,1)=")")*AND(MID(G8,LEN(G8)-3,1)="("),LEFT(G8,LEN(G8)-5),G8)
Both formulas work correctly by discarding the parentheses and everything in between, as well as the space before the opening parenthesis. As you can see, the first formula will work with a single digit in the parentheses, and the second works with two digits. It's just when I try to combine the two tests in the same formula (editing the second one so it also tests on G7) that I get the #VALUE error. I have tried using OR to combine the two tests.
I am importing data into excel from another application. I place the data on a sheet and then use macros to re-arrage the data to another sheet. One column of cells gets populated with strings of the following format <text1>(<text2>)
I would like to extract <text2> and place it in a cell on another sheet. the length of text1 and text2 varies.
macro find parenthesis and remove string in every other cell in Col.A
The following formula works but is tedious to apply to every other cell:
=LEFT(A3,FIND("(",A3)-2)
Data Example:
Cell Value A2 = hello world I am A2 (this is an example)
Cell Value A3 = hello world I am A2
Then Delete the entire row A2 and apply this to every other A.Col.cell with the original data.
I copied my data and used the paste value function, pasted it onto another excel sheet and then saved as CSV. Ideally, there should be no formatting on the cells. However, column J threw some commas for which i am unable to understand.
All i want to do is put a control in place via VBA to remove all commas from the sheet.
Is there a VBA code that can perform this function?
If someone enters "1,000" in a TextBox, Isnumeric(TextBoxEntry) says True
If I convert it to a value with something like x = TextBoxEntry * 0, the 1,000 becomes 1
I would prefer it to be 1000. Just removing commas would do the trick. How to do it.
i have data exported as CSV from in house system, the problem is that data is separted by commas therefore some of cells have split, i need VBA to remove the commas and bring my data back into correct format. Below is a sample of what the data looks like, real data is 5000 rows of data

i need a macro to do the following,
1. Remove all commas from activeworksheet ( i notice i cant see the commas in excel, but when i open notepad i have commas in empty rows)
2. Remove all characters such as = + # ( ) $ from Column 5
Removing Trailing Commas
I have a list (general ledger) GL codes with trailing commas
Example:
123456789,123456722,123789456,,,,,
When I try to use “replace” and replace the multiple commas with nothing it turns my gl codes into a scientific number (1.23456789123456E+26), but my cell is formatted to text.
The other problem is for numbers with a single trailing comma, it would also remove the commas between the GL codes
Is there a function that removes trailing commas, or commas that are not followed by numbers?
is there a way to automate =left(b1,40) and remove commas from the text?
text in the cell would be something like a name for instance john doe, LLC but some names are to long so was using the =left to reduce it to 40 characters and using find/replace for the commas replacing it with a space.
I have a column of contacts. Each contact has data spread out over many rows, most of which are blank. I would like all of the data spread out through the rows to be in one cell, delineated by commas (so I can import into another program).
Concatenating the cells works except that I end up with 20 commas for two strings of info.
Just so you understand I may have this:
Mary red blue yellow purple
Rob blue purple
Trey yellow
and I want it to look like this
Mary red, blue, yellow, purple
Rob blue, purple
Trey yellow
How should I go about this?
Is it possible to extract a number in brackets specifically from a cell, then increase it by 15%, and return the result back into the brackets.
For example the cell consists the following:
Mary (78)
so the aim is to get the 78 out for calculation, then change the content of the cell with the new result.
Or is there a macros that can be created for this?
I have to take a range of phone numbers that I have to port from another carrier and manually type them out or copy into another speadsheet, removing duplicate numbers. For example, I have the following numbers:
55532821055553282108
78132821235553282123
55532821625553282163
The results on the next spreadsheet need to be:
5553282105
5553282106
5553282107
5553282108
7813282123
5553282162
5553282163
I am looking for a way to automate this process.

I have a large spreadsheet, within which i am trying to remove commas from all cells. I get the error 'formula is too long' when I carry out the search. Some of the cells are >1024 characters in length and contain dates, text etc.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a list of 1735 numbers, actually they are numbers and/or alpha-numeric combinations. I need to copy this list of numbers into a report program. The report program requires six digits separated by a semi-colon (no spaces) with leading zeroes, as necessary.
To accomplish this, I format the cells under "Custom" and put in six zeroes. Now, I need to list them with no spaces between the numbers, just a semi colon. I have tried copying as "text only" into Word, and I get the full number, with the leading zeroes but I cannot figure out how to add the semi colons, no spaces, between each number. Can this be done in Excel? Every variation I try, including copy & paste values only, add the semi-colon into the next column and do =B2&C2, the leading zeroes drop off. If it can't be done in Excel, can it be done in Word?
I'm looking to see is if there is a way to modify this code to format a phone number as (999) 999-9999. Right now it formats phone numbers as 999-999-9999.
VB:
Sub FormatPhoneNumber()
'Purpose: Formats a telephone number as 999-999-9999.
'In cases where more than one phone number is enter in

I often have lists of badly formated phone numbers. I have created a number of macros that are quite good, but there is room for improvement.
Step 1:
Delete non numeric characters. This is a weak point - at the moment it is not working well (it removes characters from the entire sheet, rather than selected cells)
I have a cell that NEEDS to be of the following format:
#### ######
I have set this up under formatting, custom... and when I type a number like this ...
01304999999 I get the result 01304 999999 PERFECT!
Unfortunately if I type this....
01304 999 999 I get this result 01304 999 999 which ain't good as it mucks up my Macro, whih incidentally is this...
appWD.ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("PMTelephone").Range = Format(strPMTelephone, "0#### ######")
I am building a contact database in excel. I am using a userform to search, by autofilter, through several thousand contacts by any one of 7 criteria(account name, postal code,, account number, etc.). The only criteria that I cannot get to work is the phone number.
The numbers are entered in a ten digit string and the cells are formatted as phone numbers. i.e: 8005551212 = (800) 555-1212. When I run the search by the 10 digit number, the autofilter hides all results.
I have a list of telephone numbers... in every format you can imagine
123.456.7892
(123) 456 - 7892
1234567892
123-456-7892
etc...
is there any way to extract JUST the numbers...
so the format all phone numbers would take would be:
1234567892
?
I'd like to dial phone numbers directly from a specific column on a worksheet just by doubleclicking on them.
I found this code which I am trying to adapt to my use.
The hardware part is setup already (modem, phone line, etc.)
Private Sub Dial(Number)
Dim DialString As String
Dim FromModem As String
Dim dummy As Integer
' AT is the Hayes compatible ATTENTION command and is required to send commands to the modem.
' DT means "Dial Tone." The Dial command uses touch tones, as opposed to pulse (DP = Dial Pulse).
' Numbers is the phone number being dialed.
' A semicolon tells the modem to return to command mode after dialing (important).
' A carriage return, vbCr, is required when sending commands to the modem.
DialString = "ATDT" + Number + ";" + vbCr
I am getting an error message when I doubleclick that says :Runtime Error 424 , Object
Required and then I'm taken to the code line that is in Bold Yellow. Dealing with Comm
Ports is too much for me. I only know that my modem is in Com Port 4. If I'm told what to
I have an old customer list maintained by my company's previous owner in excel format that mostly stored numbers ###-#### format, but also some in ###-###-#### format.
My new list has always been maintained with numbers in (###) ###-#### format.
I have merged these two lists in a new excel file have begun the tedious process of cleaning up duplicates and bad data.
I have used conditional formatting to highlight duplicate numbers in the appropriate columns (L, M, N, O) in this case. However, it does't find matches in the other formats or perhaps the number with the old area code. I know the area code change could lead to false positives, but they should be minimal as this is a small business with mostly local customers. So what I'd like to find out is a formula for conditional formatting that will compare the last 8 characters in each cell (###-####) so as to eliminate issues of missing or different area codes. I would like it to check all of the columns for duplicate numbers not just within each column or within each row individually.
Also separate but related if possible to highlight a different color any cells with data not in any of these formats or if not in (###) ###-#### format if it's too much for all the formats.
I need to reformat phone numbers in Excel, and I am having trouble doing so. I do not have VBA experience, but I am somewhat familiar with functions in Excel. I need to go from 555-555-5555 to (555) 555-5555
