Split Line Break Multiple Columns Into New Rows?
Sep 17, 2013
I'm having troubles with a spreadsheet and unfortunately don't know enough VBA to fix it. I have two columns, each with data like so (standard text) separated by a line break:
Object1
Object2
Object3
value1
value2
value3
And I need them separated like so:
Object1
Value1
Object2
Value2
Object3
Value3
with other items in the row from other columns applied to the new rows accordingly.
Any script/macro/tool (even non-Excel) to do this effectively (over 800 rows)?

I have 300 rows worth of data that looks similar to this, all organized in one column:
John Q. Smith
Programmer
2111 NW 13th St
Anywhereville, USA, 55555
(555) 555-5555
Joe P. Snider
Organizer
5645 NW 45th St
Anywhereville, USA, 55555
(555) 555-5555
Patty Williams
Accountant
6454 NW 34th St
Anywhereville, USA, 55555
(555) 555-5555
As you can see it is consistent with the name, position, address line 1, address line 2, Phone number, for every single entry. All my names are already alphabetized so I don't have to worry about it. What I want to do is have the information for each entry translated into 5 separate columns so it looks like this.

Supposing I started the sheet in the top left corner at A1, I was just going to have cell B1=A1 then Cell B2=A6 then just autofill down column B but it doesn't work. I have seen some people do something similar to what I want with VBA but I am convinced there has to be something simple in with an excel formula seeing as my information is already so organized and consistent.

I'm trying to combine 2 cells that both have text on multiple lines separated by line breaks. I want to keep the formatting so that when both cells are combined, line one from cell 1 and line 1 from cell 2 are on the same line in the new combined cell. This is easy to do when there is only 1 line in each cell but how do you do this for cells with multiple lines? Here is an example of what I am trying to do:
A
B
C
1
First Name:
Last Name:
Address:
John
Smith
123 Harold Street
First Name: John
Last Name: Smith
Address: 123 Harold Street

Formula to split a cell at the first break/space and to keep the rest of the cell contents together? For example to separate addresses from the street and street name.
Eg.
A1
1111 AAAA BBB
into
B1 C1
111 AAAA BBB
I have tried to use text to columns but as the cell contains three or four words I don't want to have to rejoin cells afterwards.

In Column A, I have a date formatted as follows: 10/13/2007
I want to break this out into three other columns as follows:
Column B Month = 10
Column B Day = 13
Column B Year = 2007
I need all three columns to be values that I can use in a VLOOKUP.

I am looking for a way to split a large string (400 numeric value's, split by comma's) into a 20x20 field.
If possible, the field should be 600x400 pixels (30x20 squares), but this is just extra
Is there a way to do this in Excel (or any other program)?

The spreadsheet contains over 21,000 rows of data, and one of the columns (D I think) contains data as in the two examples below.
What she wants is to split this column at the semi-colons ( and have the column header as the "field" name.
Unfortunately not all the cells have the same number of "fields" as you can see. Some don't have an "addressLineTwo" while others also have "stateprovince".
Is it possible to split the column so each "field" goes into it's own column?
Please note that if a "field" is missing there is not two semi-colons to indicate an empty field. I'm also fairly certain that, between them the two examples below show all possible fields.
Data Examples.
addressLineOne:Road Belen Staana;addressLineTwo:Costado Oeste;city:SAN ANTONIO DE BELEN;highRate:194;latitude:9.97631;longitude:-84.20038;postal4005
addressLineOne:1766 Homestead Drive;airportCode:ROA;city:HOT SPRINGS;highRate:500;latitude:37.99662;longitude:-79.83079;postal24445;Rating:52;stateprovince:US
Didn't there used to be a "Split" function that split text over two cells? I'm sure I used it years ago, but can't find any mention of it in Excel 2003.

I am supposed to create a macro which will split the comma separated values into rows.
My main constraint is, I have 3 columns of comma separated values.
Let me explain with an example,
I have 5 columns namely:
A B C D E
123 1,2,3 1,2,3 123 1,2,3,4
Once I run a macro it should show like below:
A B C D E
123 1 1 123 1
123 1 1 123 2
123 1 1 123 3
123 1 1 123 4
[Code] .......

I have an address in one cell in excel. Street/City/State/Zip are all separated by two spaces like this: 123 Anywhere St Chicago IL 60607 United States
I want to break them out into separate columns. The "Text to Columns" won't work because there are no commas or dashes separating the data.

I have requirement to extact data into a spreadsheet. This data is extracted from CSV file which is huge normally over 7MB. I have found a macro on the internet which I have included with this post.
Sub split()
Dim ResultStr As String
Dim FileName As String
Dim FileNum As Integer
Dim Counter As Double
'Ask User for File's Name
FileName = InputBox("Please enter the Text File's name, e.g. test.txt")
'Check for no entry
If FileName = "" Then End
'Get Next Available File Handle Number
FileNum = FreeFile()
'Open Text File For Input
Open FileName For Input As #FileNum .................
I have also included reult data that I get after running the macro. I have cut down on data due to attachement restrictions. But usually there are multiple spreadsheets named "Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3 and so on". I have numerous requirements. First of all I want to be able to spreate data into columns. For now how I do that is by going to data -> text to columns and then selcting delmited and then selecting comma as my delimiter. Second thing I want to do is is only extract range of data from this output into a new worksheet. I am only interest in the name like for example ALBANY-Serial0/0/0 and data that is in the range of 8:00 AM to 6:00PM. So the new sheet should only have name and for that name data in the range of 8:00AM to 6:00PM for all the sheets "sheet1, sheet2 etc" until all data has been extracted.

I am entering large amounts of text into a text box uisng VBA code.
In VBE I need to line break the text using "space _" in order I can keep the text manageable on the screen. Problem is VBA is telling me there is a limit to the number of line breaks I can have in a sub, how I can solve this, ideally would like to paste a para of text at a time.

I have created a message box and I want leave two blank lines in the middle of the text. Is this possible?
At the moment my code for the message box line looks like:
Msg = "This process will print each site for " & UserSlection & ". Before continuing please ensure you have the right printer selected. (I.E. a colour printer where available). The process may take several minutes to complete. Do you wish to continue?"
I just want to move the "Do you wish to continue?" down two lines so that it is easier to read.

Can this be done by a macro ?

=REPLACE(REPLACE(A1,42,0,CHAR(10)),84,0,CHAR(10))
I tried this but i am not sure how to get the start num to change to 126,168 and so on

I know Excel is not the best tool for formatting sentences, but is there a way to insert a Line-Break based on a condition? (Either using Formula or VBA).
The situation is:A fixed-width cell, is a concatenation of 5 strings. Each of these 5 strings is a small sentence of 3-6 words; individually much smaller than the cell-width.2 of these 5 are fixed (one at start, one at the end). The other 3 are results of their respective "IF" formulas.Hence, the final sentence wraps over 2-3 lines.I need the 3rd & 5th sentence (the whole sentence, all 3-6 words of it) to start in a new line, only if they are going to be wrapped into two lines.
So If the wrapping results in:
String1 String2 Stri
ng3 String4 Stri
ng5
Then change it to:
String1 String2
String3 String4
String5

I have a situation where I have source data formatted like this:
Document ID
Document Name
Author
[Code]....
What I would like to do is to get each author on a separate row. I am able to do that using Text to Columns using the carriage return and then doing a transpose. I've also seen some threads where VBA is used to accomplish similar. However where I am stuck at is getting everything else to drop down accordingly. I.e. with the data set above I'd like to get to:
Document ID
Document Name
Author

When importing text from a CSV, the 'line returns' appear in a cell as a small square with faded left and right sides. The do force a line break as intended. However, they are a nuisance in reading and printing.
When I use ALT+ENTER to force a line break, there is no visible character (on screen or printed) for the line break, which is as it should be.
How can I replace this 'special character' line break with one not visible?

I want to create a chart where I have 5 clustered columns, repeating 4 times(weeks). Each column(total invoices entered per user) has a error rate, which I would like to display as a line graph with markers. In other works, first column has its own line, second column has its own line etc. this spans the 4 weeks. When I create the chart now, ALL 5 the line markers are placed in the same one column. I can not move the line marker to sit on top of the column it is associated with.
