Renaming Sheets: Replace The Word "March" In The Title
Apr 15, 2009
What I am attempting to do is to replace the word "March" in the title of worksheets with the word "April" while preserving other characters in the name, i.e. for the sheet named "Marchweek4", have it renamed to "Aprilweek4". The code that I have so far will not replace only the "march" string but will replace the entire name which is not quite what I want.
I am trying to find a way of capitalizing the first letter of every word in an excel listing of music. i tried the function that was suggested to me in the help =proper(cell#) and it does not work. i ahve a list of 2000 lines in excel to fdo and would like to do it thequickest possible.
1. I have a excel file with Japanese words in column A and their English equivalents in column B.
2. I am trying to create a Macro and assign it to a button. On pressing the button Macro should be able to:
3. open a form where I can enter location of a word file.
4. Macro should open the word file specified in (3).
5. Macro will pick up first Japanese word from excel file (Sheet 1 - A1)
6. Search for that word in Word file
7. Replace the Japanese words in Word file with their English equivalent from excel (B1)
8. Then it should search for second word (A2) and replace with its equivalent (B2) and so on till it reaches last filled cell in excel file column A.
After a lot of search I could find a code from net (Below), made a few changes, but it is not working.

I am in the middle of automating a process here at work, the program takes a word, "pencil" for example, from excel. It will then open up a word document with content already in it (premade template). The program will then find all instances of a string, "placepencilhere" for example, and will replace that instance with the string from excel.
Basically I want to be able to take a variable that has a stored string value from excel and use it to replace another variable in a word document.
I tried recording a replace (ctrl+f, replace tab) macro, copying the code, and inserting it into the excel vba code.. but I get a error message. Here is what I have:
I am a teacher who has created a gradebook in Excel. Each class has a student template sheet, individual sheets for each student in the class (maximum 26 students/class) which has the structure of the template and some cell referencing to the template, and a couple of mark-entry sheets and a sheet that shows the progress of all students in the class.
A number of teachers in the school have been using this gradebook and I am constantly looking for ways to make it more user-friendly. Currently, when a new course starts, a teacher opens a blank copy of the file (which has all of the sheets I mentioned above present). To set up a class, the teacher enters the students' names once on the mark entry sheet (called the "Binder Sheet"), and then changes the individual student tabs (right click...rename...) to reflect the names of their students.
I am wondering if there is a way to have the individual sheet tabs (Student 1, Student 2...Student 26) update automatically to match the names that the teacher enters on the Binder Sheet in cells A4:A29.
I would like to be able to embed the update procedure/script into the blank template so that it is user friendly for others.
I'm experimenting a bit with this code. The idea is the following:
I've got one spreadsheet (ThisWorkbook) were I define 5 names for 5 worksheets in all files of a specific folder (c: emp). I get stuck at this line: "wb.Sheet2.Name = myval2", since I'm for some reason not able to activate the newly opened workbook and change it's name....
Sub wd_testing()
Dim I As Long Dim wb As Workbook Dim firstrow As Long Dim sht As Worksheet Dim cell As Object Dim count As Integer Dim myval2 As Variant Dim myval3 As Variant Dim myval4 As Variant Dim myval5 As Variant Dim myval6 As Variant Application.ScreenUpdating = False
It's important to mention that there is no name conflict and the names work when entered manually.
Column A has cells showing either Y or N I want Column B to take a Y and convert it to a Yes and N to No. I tried an IF statement but it wont seem to work.
I use the following code. I want to make Replace only in the case which there is a whole word in a part of a cell, but not in part of specific characters.
Example: In the code i want to replace the word "to" but replaces all the words that contains "to". For example in the word together lets only the characters gether, and in the word tonight lets only the characters night etc.
I found the below code and have tried adapting it without success.
Code: Sub Colorize_Word() Dim Found As Range, FirstFound As String Dim FindWhat As String, MyColor As Long, Counter As Integer
MyColor = 3
FindWhat = LCase(InputBox("Find what word?", "Color word"))
[Code] ..........
This code finds any string in a cell of your choice and colors it red. I would really like to replace the string with my own string of text. I couldn't use the simple find and replace function as this replaces the WHOLE cell content not just one word.
I believe the line of code that needs editing most is this one
Looking to build a simple find and replace with an added condition that it must match the whole word since some of my data appears as below:
abc.abc_no
I am trying to replace abc with alphabets and I need the result: alphabets.abc_no not alphabets.alphabets_no.
What do you think the best approach to this would be? All my data that I need converted is in one column (Column C) which are thousands of rows long and on another sheet I have a list of the conversions I need to do (about 150 - columns A and B) setup like:
I create a monthly excel sheet regarding customer & their payment like this.. Suppose..
Month January 2007 Customer A 2000 Customer B 2000 Cust C 3000
Feb
Cust D 3000 Cust E 4000 Cust A 2000
Mar
Cust B 2000 Cust A 2000 Cust G 4000
Now, I want to do somthing like that If a customers Name repeat in another month, I mean Cust. A name has been already entered in Month January & if it comes again in february then it should be automatically replaced or highlight with red line Or something like that.
I need to replace part of a formula. I need to delete the workbook reference: "[Combined Flow2.xlsm]". I need to do this for range A1:Z100 and this is what I record when deleting them one at a time:
[Code] ........
How can I do this to delete it from all worksheets for the range A1:Z100 besides one at a time.
I have a VBA that opens a word document where I have a standard text, and some of the words are ment to change depending on who customer we have in mind.
It seems a bit unstable, sometimes it takes half of the words, if I add a sign like a comma after the word it seems to catch them better and manage to replace them.
Right now it doesn't change any of the words....
This is is:
Code: Option Explicit 'the document Dim Inv_doc As Object
I have never used VBA in word before, so I am assuming I am making it more complicated than it needs to be. I have a macro that stores 20 excel values as variables, then opens up a word document. I want to replace values in word with my values in excel. I keep getting an error with the replace part. I do not want to use bookmarks or mail merge. MSWord is a reference in excel VBA.
Code that stores excel variables (Example: Var1=Data1 and Var2=Data2)... 'Opening up the correct word document Dim WdApp As Object, WdDoc As Object Set WdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application") WdApp.documents.Open ThisWorkbook.Path & "" & Range("D1").Value & ".doc" WdApp.Visible = True
I am looking for a syntax or function wherin i can replace all lines in different cells containing specific string or text in it. e.g. Few cells in sheet contains " This guy is for deployment", other few cells may contain "guy is for core deployment" and other cells may have " project is specific deployment". I want to replace all such lines which contain a word "deployment" with ony one word "Deployment".
I'm looking to simply delete certain words that are in cells, without having to delete rows, columns or the entire cell. I can use 'find and replace' and replace the particular word with a space, but I really want to delete the word. I'm using both Excel 2003 and 2000.
how to accomplish more work quickly is proving difficult. I am making a word cloud of survey responses for my boss and he doesn't like to see similar words in the cloud (like Ease and Easy or even Fast and Quick). I have several hundred of these responses that are open ended answers that say one or many of these terms. Any way I can separate all the words and have them in one neat column? If I can get to that point, replacing those words will be simple enough.
I'm trying to do is compare 4 columns on 2 sheets. I would like to go down in column "E" on sheet1 and find the exact one on column "A" on sheet2. Once these are equal I would compare F, G, H, on sheet1 with B, C, D on sheet2. If the these three columns are not the same I would like to copy from sheet2 B, C, D from sheet2 to F, G, H.
The problem I have is none of the rows of information will be in sequential order as well as we may not have a match. What I'm saying is row1 on sheet1 could be row1000 on sheet2. Attached is a small example. in the example rows 6, 11, 12, 16 and 19 would be the only changes on sheet1. My example does have the rows in sequential but that would almost never be the case for me....
at first i wrote company's name short so that i have to type less but now i want full name of company.....
like.....if in sheet#1 column B any company's name is started by Rel of sheet#2 column A , then the cell containing Rel is replaced by Reliance Industries ( sheet#2 column B but same row that of Rel) ........in sheet#1
I am attempting to run a macro that will do a find and replace on a protected sheet but this is not working. I am using the following code to Protect all Sheets, which I found on this site when workbook opens using the Workbook Open Event and uses UserInterFaceOnly :
Private Sub Workbook_Open() Dim wSheet As Worksheet
For Each wSheet In Worksheets wSheet.Protect Password:="111", _ UserInterFaceOnly:=True Next wSheet End Sub
And then a find and replace similar to this:
Sub FindAndReplace() Selection.Replace What:="w", Replacement:="a", LookAt:=xlPart, _ SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _ ReplaceFormat:=False End Sub
I have a list of cell entries that I want to find and replace with different text or a number. My code below is 4 of them. I am trying to do the replace over 3 different sheets at the same time but I am only changing the 1st sheet with my efforts.
