Splitting Text

Jun 18, 2007

I have text of varying length that I need to split up into three fields. I am using a vba code (kindly shown to me on a previous post) to split the first word, but in this particular macro I need to remove the last word. This is the code that I have at present which is displaying the first word.

Sub splitDescription()
Dim c As Range, t
For Each c In Range("e2:e" & Range("e" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
t = Split(c)

c.Offset(, 1) = t(0)

Next
End Sub

The data I am trying to split consists of descriptions of varying lengths and I need to remove the first word and the last word and keep the middle text. Below is an example

SUEDE ROUCHED TRIM COURT GOLD
LEATHER/PATEN METALLIC SNAKE COURT BLACK
SUEDE RIBBONED BOW PURPLE

Text File Import With Text To Columns Splitting Same Text Differently

Nov 21, 2007

I have a macro which imports data from a mainframe dump text file and performs 'Text to Columns' on the imported data so that formula in the spreadsheet can act on the data. The code works perfectly well when I use it, but if a different user logs on and performs exactly the same mainframe dump and import macro the Text to Columns action splits the raw data in a different way and the result is that the split renders the formulae useless.

I've experimented a little and for some reason it appears that the 'Field Info' parameters which are produced when the Text to Columns function is recorded in a macro differ between users even though the raw data is exactly the same.

FieldInfo:= _
Array(Array(0, 1), Array(18, 1), Array(35, 1), Array(56, 1), Array(70, 1), Array(88, 1), _
Array(102, 1))

Splitting Text In Cells?

Feb 9, 2012

I'm trying to break up text in excel based on certain criteria and would prefer using a formula.

Criteria one: Must be 35 characters or less in length
Criteria two: Must include full words

So for example:

Cell A1: Sally bought a new purse

End Result:
Cell A1: Sally bought a new purse
Cell B1: Sally bought a (assume 35 characters)
Cell C1: new purse (assume 35 characters)

As mentioned earlier the only caveot is that it cannot break individual words IE: "Sally bought a ne"

Splitting Text Using MID, RIGHT Functions

Jan 22, 2007

I have some samples below and I need to split them up.
CritValsMtrx(1, 1) = 8850216
CritValsMtrx(1, 2) = 10
CritValsMtrx(2, 1) = 8850832
CritValsMtrx(2, 2) = 5

The MID function to split the text as below and it works.
MID(A1,1,FIND(" (",A1,1)-1) returns "CritValMtrx"

I have tried the RIGHT function to split the text to have the followings but it didn't work RIGHT(A1,1,FIND(",",A1,1)-1).
"1)8850216"
"2) = 10"
"1) = 8850832"
"2) = 5"

In a nut shell, all I need is the text from the comma to the end of the string.

Splitting Text Across Cells

Jan 8, 2009

I'm having trouble splitting some data.

I have account codes like 1201.170170 that I must split into two cells containing 1201 and 170170

When I use "left" and "right" functions, it cuts off the zero on the far right. Assuming base data in cell F2...

=Right(f2,6) returns .17017 rather than the intended 170170

I've tried formatting the cells as text, but that doesn't seem to work either.

Splitting Text And Numbers From The One Cell

Aug 4, 2014

Is there a formula or function that I can use that will allow me to split data like below into two separate cells?

In one cell, I have - Narre Warren Black 6.8-44 & in another cell - Pakenham Maroon 5.4-34 just as an example. (There are quite a number of cells like this) I would like the cell split to show - Narre Warren Black in one cell and then 6.8-44 in the next cell. The same is needed with the following cell - Pakenham Maroon in one cell and 5.4-34 in the next cell.

Because some have one space and some have 2 or 3 I can't use 'LEFT' and I can't use Text to Columns as far as I can see.

Splitting Text And Numbers From 1 Column Into Separate Columns

Jul 24, 2014

I have some data that is both text and numbers in the same cell. I would like to split the the data so that the text is in one column and the numbers are in another column.

The numbers are all a fixed length (15 chars) so I know that I can use the following formula = RIGHT(A1,15)

However I am not quite sure how to split the text as the length can vary as as well as the number of words in the string.

For example A1 is 1 word with 7 characters but A2 is 2 words, 14 characters long inc space.

A1 Goodwin 000710280740120
A2 Gillette Ridge 000715058510122

B1 Goodwin
C1 000710280740120

B2 Gillette Ridge
C2 000715058510122

Import Large Text File Of Numbers Without Excel Splitting Numbers?

Jul 19, 2014

I have a text file with rows and columns of numbers ranging from 1-4 digits that I'd like to import/copy into Excel with each number being in its own cell. But whenever I copy/try to import, Excel splits all of the 3-4 digit numbers up into single digit numbers. The text file has 10,000+ columns (each number occupies two columns so I have half of that amount in numbers) and 300+ lines.

Is the file simply too large for Excel to handle or is there a way I can do this?

String Splitting

Jan 23, 2007

If I have a string which contains 3 words, is there an easy way of separating out the consonants into one string and the vowels into another (spaces should be ignored)?

The only way I can think of doing it is to go through the string item by item and comparing the letters to a list of vowels and using that to do the separation.

Splitting Data

Feb 15, 2009

The line below was originally a merged cell. I need to have the customer ID, Customer name, City, State and zip in seperate lines. I tried using the text to column, but the problem is some companies have a comma after their name to show if it is an llc or inc etc. What happens is the companies that do not have inc etc- it works just fine, however the ones that do have inc etc because there is another comma- it moves everything over one column. In the city column it says inc and in the state it has the city etc. Is there an easy way to make this work?

Splitting An Array

Jun 29, 2009

I have a spreadsheet I'm designing which requires me to take a series of numbers and return them lowest to highest. That's the easy bit.

The problem is where and how these numbers are displayed. They are not listed easily in two columns with the numbers in one column and someone's name against each one, but rather in four columns mapping out the odds and evens.

For example
1 Bob 2 Keith
3 Linda 4 Martin

Now obviously it'd be easiest if I could just re-format things into two columns, but that's not an option. However I'm finding myself a bit stuck when it comes to using an array in a formula.

I still want to return the names next to number, but I'm not sure how to have what's effectively a multiple array (or search two arrays at the same time). I'm looking to search the cells A1:A2 and C1:C2 in the example above, but not the cells B1:B2.

I just need to take the numbers in those cells A1:A2 and C1:C2 and list them in order highest to lowest.

Splitting And Extracting Certain Info

Aug 6, 2009

I have a spreadsheet which contains addresses split randomly into several columns and need to extract the postcode for every row.

WEST STREETCF34 9AF MAESTEG
DERWEN CLOSESA5 4QQ SWANSEA
GOETRE BELLAF ROADSA2 7RL SWANSEA
TALIESIN CLOSEBRIDGEND CF35 6JR
TALIESIN CLOSECF35 6JR BRIDGEEND

Above is a small example of 2 of the columns, most addresses are in 3 columns.

The postcode can appear at the front, end or anywhere in the address field. Depends on who typed it in. I need to somehow extract the postcode and have it in a separate column.

Text to columns wont work i think because the info isnt uniform, I've tried the search for the various postcode starting letters but still cannot extract the entire postcode.

Splitting One Column Into Many Other Columns

Dec 22, 2007

I need a macro which place chosen parts from one column into another column.

For example I have following text in column E:

Column E
Flugschneise {f}
ringsum
(total) im Arsch [vulg.]
mutterseelenallein
Geld und Gut
Pensum {n}

*chosen content not always at the end of a cell!

Now i need a macro which puts chosen content from Column E to Column F or Column G. For example I want that all “{f}s” should be deleted from column E and put into column E. Or I want all {n} to be deleted and placed into column F. Or I want all [vulg.] to be deleted from column E and put into column G. If column F or G already consist of text then the new text( {f} or {n} or [vulg.] ...) should be added to the existing text but separated through a separator like comma or semicolon …

It means that the macro is each time fed with information about what to delete from which column and where to put it. It would be cool if a simple msg box would ask for the needed information.

Budget Splitting Formula

Jul 4, 2008

I have to run payroll every two weeks, and part of the process involves calculating overtime for over 50 employees. The total amount of overtime hours for each employee is usually split on two or three budgets and after I calculate the budget splits, I have to enter these amounts into the payroll system. (The payroll system takes up to 2 decimal spaces.)

I have a spreadsheet set up for each employee, but what I've noticed is that the sum of the parts does not always equal the whole.

For example, Bob Goodworker worked 9 hours of overtime this pay period.

His budget split will be as follows:

Budget A (58.5%) = 5.27
Budget B (31.5%) = 2.84
Budget C (10%) = 0.90

However, 5.27 + 2.84 + .90 = 9.01

The payroll system only allows for numbers up to 2 decimal places.
