Use Text To Columns Feature To Be Text To Rows?

Jan 13, 2003

I have a cell that has a comma separated value that is 354 fields long. As such, if I use the Text To Columns feature to split the data at each column, I lose several columns (because excel cannot have that many columns).

How can I break the data at the comma, but have it list in rows instead?

Bypass Text Cells While Using Sum Feature

Dec 15, 2012

Is there a way to use the =SUM(--:--) feature, but to bypass any cells that contain text instead of numbers that are in the range?

I'm currently using this formula:

=SUM(N(I31)+N(L31)+N(O31)+N(R31)+N(U31)+N(X31)+N(AA31)+N(AD31))

...to only add up the number cells, as next to each cell, there is a column that has text (the reason for the "N(--:--)" is because depending on criteria, some of these cells print blank).

I just added 50 more columns that need to be added to the formula listed above and I will need to repeat this a dozen times. It will be much easier (and tidier) to be able to do something like this:

=SUM(N(I31:CL31)EXCLUDING CELLS THAT CONTAIN TEXT.

Text To Column Feature Does Not Give Results As Needed

May 1, 2014

If i use text to columns using comma as a separator, it does not give me the desired results when I have a text like "FAIRFIELD I&S - E PEORIA, IL". I want this display as "FAIRFIELD I&S - E PEORIA, IL". But if i use this feature, I get "FAIRFIELD I&S - E PEORIA" in one column and "IL" in another column. Ideally I want it to show "FAIRFIELD I&S - E PEORIA, IL" in a single column.

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))

Highlight Rows That Share Text Across Columns

Feb 15, 2013

I am wondering how I can highlight rows that contain the same text across selected columns (not all). For example, consider the following table:

ID#6527
Jay
yellow
dog

[Code]...

I want to focus on Columns B, C, and D. I would like rows 3 and 5 to be highlighted, since they share the same text across the target columns. I assume this can be done via a formula in Conditional Formatting, but I'm not sure.

Hide Rows Based On Text Search In Three Columns?

Mar 22, 2013

I 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
Address
Service
PM
SS

VBA Macro To Loop Text To Columns Through All Rows Of Data?

Apr 17, 2014

I am trying to get a macro to run in excel that takes a simple text to columns command in one line of data and runs the command on a loop through however many rows of data there happen to be.

I've attached two screenshots - one with what I've got now (Before.jpg) and what I'd like to have after the macro runs (After.jpg). The code below is what I used to get the first text to column breakout, which I can hopefully run on a loop to breakout anything in the DEPT column that contains a "/". It can ignore the rows that only have one department to begin with.

Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("K2"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=False, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=True, OtherChar _
:="/", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 1)), TrailingMinusNumbers:=True

Eventually I'll want to create another macro that transposes the breakout text back into the DEPT column and populates it with the corresponding data, but I figure I'll take things one step at a time.

Count The # Of Rows In A Spreadsheet In Which There Is Non-blank Text Data In 2 Separate Columns

Dec 5, 2008

I am trying to count the # of rows in a spreadsheet in which there is non-blank text data in 2 separate columns. For instance, if the spreadsheet looked like the one below (dashes just for formatting purposes):

NAMES-------THIS-------------THAT
Mary-------some text--------some more text
John-------<blanks>---------just text here
Sue--------just some here-----<blanks>
Dave-------something--------something else
Adam------<blanks>-----------<blanks>

The total # of rows with something in both the "THIS" and "THAT" columns above would therefore be 2.

Find Specific Text In Multiple Rows / Columns And Align All Vertically To Same Column

Apr 25, 2013

I have a macro that converts all my PDF Purchase Orders to a text file and inserts the data/text horizontally into another document. However because the PDF's or the text within the PDF can be fomatted differently (that is on different lines etc) it therefore imports the information and it looks mis-aligned.I have attached a simple spreadsheet showing some sample text as it is imported and then below this how it should look like, all in line.

The range where the highlighted text in red is, is variable (but say nothing more than a variant of 10 columns). The text can also be Uppercase or Lowercase.So, I was wondering if there is macro code to find the "text" on various rows/columns and align it all in another column?

Extracting Strings Of Text From Columns Of Data(text)

Apr 23, 2007

What I have is a column of data(text) which contains amongst all the text three strings of text in ever cell in the column which I require copying into three adjoining cells

The data I require is :-

(a) The persons name which is always after the word Requester e.g. Requester Steve Robinson

(b) Their office location which is directly after the persons name and is in brackets e.g. (Newcastle User)

(c) The Approving persons name which is preceded by Approved by e.g. Approved by Christine Hunting

See examples 1 & 2 below

Example 1

CR0/CRZ3651 Requestor Steve Robinson (Newcastle User) Tel: 01234 798157 Approved by Christine Hunting

Please install and configure 2 Ultra 2s (typhoon and lancaster) for use as ARTE workstations. These workstations require Solaris 2.5.1 plus the same patches as before

Example 2

CR0/CRZ3118 Requestor Doug Cunningham (Newport User) Tel: 0114 9881480 Approved by John Smithers

Please provide support to set up Cisco 2691 Router and PIX-506E Firewall to enable external connection of a remote terminal for project work.

As you will appreciate the text in the cells is of non standard lenght and the three pieces of information can be located virtually any where in the text

Macro To Only Show Rows That Contain Specific Text/Chinese Text Issue In Visual Basic ( 2007)

Jun 23, 2009

I want to create 3 command buttons (active X) on a worksheet to toggle between showing rows which only contain the below text in column L (range L9:L30) and showing all rows containg the options (However, I also have some blank rows in this range and i always want them to remain hidden.)

My text options are:

High
Medium
Low

The text arrives in the cells via a VLOOKUP

Is the chinese text a problem? i can't type it into VB.

I've been using the following macro to hide and unhide rows with a command button in the same sheet:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Toggle_Hide_Unhide
End Sub

Sub Toggle_Hide_Unhide()
Dim rngCell As Range
Dim TakeAction As Boolean

If ActiveSheet.CommandButton1.Caption = "Hide" Then
TakeAction = True
ActiveSheet.CommandButton1.Caption = "UnHide"
Else
TakeAction = False
ActiveSheet.CommandButton1.Caption = "Hide"
End If

For Each rngCell In ActiveSheet.Range("I9:I30")
With rngCell
If .Value = 2 Then .EntireRow.Hidden = TakeAction
End With
Next rngCell
End Sub

Text To Columns :: Macro To Split Text

Jun 17, 2008

I am trying to write a micro code to split text which is copied into cell A1 into columns. I can do this fine by going to "data" the "text to Columns" and selecting the places i want to split the text (this is the same for every piece of data i copy in).

The macro works perfectly every time. the problem is that the spreadsheet is shared and i want to protect certain cells on the sheet, when i protect the sheet the recorded macro does not work as the "data", "text to columns" is not available in a protected workbook.

I was just wondering if someone could help me, so i can run a macro to split the text which also allows me to protect cells. In the "text to column" option the "fixed width" (column breaks) i choose are: 4, 25, 34 and 43.

Text In One Column But NOT By Text To Columns

Dec 6, 2006

I've had this issue a couple of times and can't work out an easy way to deal with it.

I have text data in one column.

Name
Add1
Add2
City
Pcode
Manager
Name
Add1
Add2
City
Pcode
Manager
etc

How do I extract Row 1 into Column 1, R2-C2,... R7-C1, R8-C2?

To make it more tricky what if there isn't a consistent amount of data, ie sometimes I'll have Manager name (6 rows of data) and sometimes I won't (5 rows of data) and then the next collection of data will have it again.

Does this make sense?

Excel Text Search Through Different Types Of Text And Action Based On Text

Oct 14, 2008

1. Search an excel sheet "column" for a particular type of text and insert values based on that text (if found) in another column.

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.

If Cell Contains Certain Text And Certain Text Then Return Predefined Text?

Apr 10, 2013

I'm trying to get something like - If a cell contains certain text AND certain text then display set text OR If a cell contain certain text AND certain text then display set text.

For example:
Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Petrol = vauxhall corsa petrol
Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Deisel = vauxhall corsa Deisel
Vauxhall Nova 1 litre Petrol = vauxhall nova petrol

So it the formula is effectively searching for the car type and the fuel type and then returning the relevant set text. So far I'ver only been able to find IF functions criteria to identify one feature of the text.

I'm thinking it's got to be variation on =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol") but there should be something else in there like =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa"&"Petrol",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol")

I know this is wrong but just trying illustrate my thinking. I need it to pick up vauxhall corsa AND petrol. I understand that I would have to stick a lot of IF functions together in a string, but that is fine as long as I can ask it to pick certain text AND certain text within a cell.

Macro To Convert Text To Rows - Inserting Rows

Mar 27, 2013

I have cells (all in one column) containing text separated by commas e.g. (SD-299, SD-200, SD-300)

I am trying to transpose the text in these cells into rows.

VB:
Sub SplitAndTranspose()
Dim N() As String
N = Split(ActiveCell, ", ")
ActiveCell.Resize(UBound(N) + 1) = WorksheetFunction.Transpose(N)
End Sub

The problem with that is that when transposing it does not shift the cells down (/ insert new rows) so I lose the data already in the cells underneath.

Also, that macro would only apply to one cell I would like to be able to apply it all the data in the specific column on my Sheet.
