I want to be able to search different columns that have texts and numbers which display only those rows that contain those categories. The columns are labeled by "#/Area/Name/Sector/Type/Value($)/Date"
View 5 RepliesHere is what Im trying to do: I have a VERY large excel file that has groups of 4 cells, a blank, then another 4, repeating. Kinda like the following:
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
UID = example
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
UID = example
That pattern continues for about 3000 lines. However, if you noticed, some of the "groups" dont have the 4th line "UID = example".
Here is what Im trying to do. I want excel to search for the cells with "UID" and DELETE it plus the 3 rows above. So that only the "groups" without the UID remain.
Now Im thinking this may be impossible, but I've seen some crazy things done with excel macros and was really hoping someone can help me out. Otherwise Im doing this manually for 3000+ lines of text.
I would like to search a specific text, ex "Change" on all column C on all existing sheets and copy all rows and collect into one Sheet.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working on a time management sheet for my company. I need to be able to click a button and have the file search 3 columns for a persons initials and then hide all the rows where the initials are not in at least one of the three columns. I seem to have no problem getting it to work for one column at a time, but as soon as I try to search more than one it all falls apart.
I will also need to create an unhide all button to reset the sheet after the macro has been run.
I have attached a sample of the sheet below. Each project needs to have 3 rows to show the schedule and budget broken down by each team member.
Project Number

What I am looking to do is search using a user input and select all the rows that contain the entered search text.
I have 4 sheet workbook, columns are the same across them all, and what i require is to be able to take a text input from a user, maybe what column to search, and in what sheet. Then search the relevant sheet for matches. Once found the record that contains the match is to be copied to another sheet where filters can e applied. There will be multiple records selected for each search.
vba script to convert the text in a cell(split considering "Space" as delimiter) into multiple Rows and Single column & the resultant row's(A1:A7000) values need to be searched in Column(B) of another sheet,if the search result is false then the value in the row need to be highlighted in red.
I am able to split the values in one column into mutiple rows,but need to have all the resultant values in a single column.
i,e,.
I am able to split it as below:
Column A
Column B
Column C
[Code]....
for second situation - search I could search based on the values by using Vlookup() function,but unable to highlight when search result is false.
ex:
if the search string "ACB" in Sheet1 is not available in the sheet2, then value "ACB" should be changed into red.
the task for the code below is to search through rows in array and check if there's no "text" in it like user inputed in box. But it always shows that there's no such email,i can't figure out the mistake, Maybe the problem is in the type the InputBox returns? But i've tried entering type := 2 (text),dunno what else i can do...I've also tried using p = InputBox("Please,eneter email!").

e.g I have column A1 to A10 with different types of text. I would like to search for the keyword "Risk is high" OR "Risk=High" for each cell in the column and insert a "1" if found beside it's corresponding "B" column. If not found, I would like to insert a "0".
So, if the text "Risk is high" OR "Risk=High" was only found in A6, I would like B6 to be "1". Rest of the values in the B column would be "0's", since the text was not found in any of the other cells.
I need to create a macro to do the following:
Search the activecell for a text string (a), and then either paste in text string (b) at the end of the cell if (a) is found, or text string (c) if (a) is not found.
For example, if the activecell has "AA/" in it, I want the cell to become "AA/01" (pasting in "01" at the end), and if the cell has just "AA" in it, I want it to still become "AA/01" (pasting "/01" at the end). The macro will be linked to a commandbutton.
I am using Windows XP and Office 2003.
I am looking to automate a process where information is sent to someone in a text format and they in turn transfer that data to an excel file. It basically looks like this (but includes a lot more info):
Service Request #: 123456
Instrument Type: New Instrument
Lot/Serial #: 123456
SR Type: Product Complaint
Service Coverage: Maintenance Agreement
The info on the left (text preceding the colon) is always the same but the values following the colon can change. The excel file has all of the text before the colon and they just enter the information into the cells. I am looking to make it so that an Excel macro (or maybe a word/outlook macro) automatically scans the text document and sends this info to the exact same cells in excel every time.
The text file is actually a message from an Oracle database and I am not going to be able to make any changes to the way the data comes in.
Search a worksheet for a user defined text string, and have excell return the contents of a predetermined column in the same row in which the text string was found.
A prepopulated worksheet has the text "gold" entered in cell T278.
1. user searches for "yellow_metal"
2. Excell finds "yellow_metal" in row 278, say in cell A278.
3. Excell then goes to predetermined column (programed as part of macro or VB), say "T", and returns the text contents of the cell in that column, T278 in this example.
4. Excell returns "gold"
I am needing to search for specific text in a row and if the text matches then sum a different area. I currently have the below formula but it wont work unless I only select only cell for the find section:
=IF(FIND("Skills and drills",$R$4:$AA$4)>0,SUM(I4:N4),0)
I need to firure out how to find a value based on 2 conditions that are text. Somewhat like this: If customer "acme" is in the central division and in state Alaska, return legal entity Newco.

===============
0. Row 1 to 9 in Sheet mv2f will copy into Sheet2 row 1 to 9.
1.Base on data in Sheet1, firstly macro will delete the same datain column A then it will start to search for 04022RP in Sheet mv2f.
2. macro will then copy 14 rows and paste into Sheet2 starting in row10.
3. then looping to 2nd data which is 04024RP T0.55 in Sheet mv2f and repeat the step above.
I have an excel spreadsheet with:
2 sheets,Sheet1 and Sheet2
4 columns (A,B,C,D)
100,000s of rows.
I need to search 3 columns, B,C and D, for particular values.
Column B needs to be = 0
Columns C and D need to be "<=0.1"
When all three criteria in the row are matched I need the value from column A in that row to be pasted to Sheet2 and then for the macro to continue searching the rows.
I have attached an extract of the data as the files size is too large to upload.
I am trying to develop a macro that does the folllowing
1) Takes the value from a specified column of a sheet in the workbook and sequentually go the the values of that column and compares those values to another sheet in the workbook
For ex: sheet1 in column A row 1 has string value abc123 and sheet2 column A row 1 has value 123abc. I want to compare these two values from different sheets.
2) However if the values don't match I would like to take the value from sheet1 and see if it is in the list on sheet2.
3) If the value from sheet2 isn't on the list from sheet1 then paste that row information to sheet3
So far this is what I have. All it does now is go through both lists and compares the values but I am not sure how to single out those values for conditional formating. I am sure that the singled out values will need to be derived dynamically since I won't know what or when the values will be up for conditional formatting.
Dim LoopCount As Integer
Dim RangeCount As Integer
Dim CellVal As String
Dim CellIncrement As Integer
Dim ErrorCount As Integer
Dim PasteConfirm As Boolean

Rather than use Control-F to find the text in a cell, is there some VBA programming that could do the same and then go to the cell or cells containing the text input to be found? I tried recording the macro to find, but it would show up in the VB Editor because I had to close the find function down to then stop recording.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write a VBA If statement that searches the text of a cell for a specific string.
Let's say the cell contains "Bismarck State College"
I want the If Statement to search for "Bismarck" in the cell and continue with the If Statement if it's found.
Here's what I have that I found in the forums but it doesn't seem to work:
If Cells(r, 6).Value Like "*bismarck*" Then
BISM = BISM & vbCrLf & Cells(r, 2)
