Adding Dim'd Variables: Ignoring Strings & Adding Number
Jan 13, 2007I've got a problem involving several Dim'd Variables needing to be added up, they're all Dim'd as Variants though as they can be either strings or numbers at any time.
I need a formula (VBA) to add them up (to add their actual numeric values - not just a "1" if they contain a number) and ignore them all together if they contain string values.
Autofilter More Than 2 Criteria On Strings With Wildcard
Mar 12, 2013I am trying to autofilter more than 2 criteria, for example 3 criteria.
Below code works fine as the criteria are exact match strings
VB:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$O$25").AutoFilter Field:=7, Criteria1:=Array( _
"=apple", "=orange", "=grape"), Operator:=xlFilterValues
However below code does not work when the criteria are strings with wildcard "*"
VB:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$O$25").AutoFilter Field:=7, Criteria1:=Array( _
"=*apple*", "=*orange*", "=*grape*"), Operator:=xlFilterValues
I need a wildcard * indicating strings contains instead of exact match the criteria.
Data looks like this
Fruits
apple, orange, peach
orange, strawberry
banana, peach
grape, peach
After autofilter, any rows that contains one of the criteria(in this case orange, apple, grape) will remain.
Excel 2007 :: Looping Through Text Strings And Copying Based On Criteria
Sep 17, 2012I have 2 excel files, let's call them 1.xlsx and 2.xlsx (excel 2007)
File 1 is the file where I want data copied into and file 2 is the file I want to copy data from.
File 1 has certain text strings in every say 5th column in always row 2. I want to find those strings in file 2 and if the string is found, go 6 rows down, copy the cell, and paste it into file 1, 8 rows down the text string. this is the code I came up with, but it doesn't work
Code:
Option Explicit
Sub get_data_from_2()
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long
Dim FinalColumn As Long
Dim RngFrom As Range
[Code] .......
the bolded part gives me an error.
Excel 2003 :: Concatenate Text Strings From Column Using Multiple Criteria Condition (formula)
Dec 20, 2012I am looking for a way of creating the following conditioned concatenation.
I have two tables, let's call them "summary" and "detailed".
The "detailed" table is something like the following:
ID
VOL
001
01
001
05
[code]....
The "summary" table below gets info from the "detailed" table. The 'ID'is now unique. I'm looking for a formula on the 'VOL (concatenated)' column cells it should get all rows from the "detailed" table with the same ID and then concatenate the 'VOL' column results, comma separated:
ID (unique)
VOL (concatenated)
001
V01, V03, V05
002
V01, V04
003
V06
PS: I have people using this table with office 2003, so compatibility is necessary...
Finding Strings In VLookup Value - Embedded In Larger Strings Within Table Array
Dec 20, 2012I need to do a vlookup that takes a string from one cell and then tries to find that string (embedded in a larger string) in the table array
Essentially I imagine this involves the FIND function at some point.

Parsing Data Strings Into Columns
May 4, 2009I have a spreadsheet that gathers information from multiple cells and strings the data into a long string - each piece of data broken by a comma in the string.
In another spreadsheet, I copy this data string into column A on sheet 1 - starting on row 2 and down.
On sheet 2 - and this is where I need help - I would like to have a macro that will take each data string on Sheet 1 column A and parse it out into multiple columns but the same row on Sheet 2.
ColumnA Row2 Sheet1 -> changing to many columns on Sheet2 but still on the same row.
The data string always represents the same number of data components - its just a matter of breaking it out and placing each data piece into its own column.

I have tried working it out myself but am a macro/excel novice (and have gone cross-eyed).
There are over 10000 lines of data so unfortunately I cant just do it manually.

Two Strings In One Cell
Aug 18, 2006I have two adjacent strings in a CSV file that I'm importing which were originally intended as a single piece of data. The format of the strings are:
5'-3 3/4" (Yes, it's a good old imperial length measurement)
Right now, I have (5'-3) in one cell, and (3/4") in the next.
I'd like to try to append the second string (3/4") to the first in a single cell. Is there any way for me to do that using VBA?
Search For Text Strings In Column Of Data
Mar 22, 2014How many text strings in a reference column appear in paragraphs of text listed in another column within excel.
So column A contains text strings such as:
{{Advisor_Signature__c}}
{{Advisors_Initials__c}}
{{Advisors_Job_Title__c}}
{{Age__c}}
And I need to see whether any of these appear in cells in a reference column G. If they do, I would like to return 'Used' into column B.
An example of the type of text in each cell in column G is:
"If you have any questions regarding your offer, please contact me. For any questions regarding your benefits, payroll or company policies and programs, please contact HR. Sincerely, {{Advisor_Signature__c}} {{Advisors_Job_Title__c}}"
I don't seem to able to search for a text string across multiple reference cells.

Feb 18, 2014I'm just trying to view the results of this search, I don't need it to make changes to the cells on the bases of this search.
I'm using control + F to open the search box.
It only allows me to type in one single string, such as "Johnson". Problem is, it finds many rows that contain the name Johnson.
So I'd like to further add a number, such as 1.3338, which it can look for in any cell that's on the same ROW where it found Johnson.
It would then return, for example, Row number 81, which has a cell that contains Johnson and another cell that contains 1.3338.

Sum Number Of Different Strings In Single Cell?
Jun 23, 2014I am attempting to count up the sum of names that will be submitted, through a web form, in a single cell.
Example:
Cell B1 will have a bunch of names submitted to it. let's say 10: Marino, Elway, Namath, Montana, Manning, Brady, Romo, Bradshaw, Favre, Aikman. (these text strings will be all in one single cell)
I will have a list of names that are correct to compare to: Montana, Brady, Bradshaw, Manning. I can put those in its own cell to compare to. (C1)
How do i get the sum of 4 from B1 cell? If B1 only has 3 of the 10, how would it return the sum of 3?
Example:
A1 B1 (Submitted cell) C1 (List to compare to "right answers") D1 (sum from B1 compared to C1)
user 1 Marino, Elway, Namath, Montana, Manning, Brady, Romo, Bradshaw, Favre, Aikman Montana, Brady, Bradshaw, Manning 4
user 2 Marino, Elway, Namath, Montana, Manning, Brady, Favre, Aikman 3
This is I am sure a very newbie question, but I couldn't find anything on multiple text strings within one cell, and counting a sum of those.
How To Calculate Multiple Strings In Same Cell
Jan 4, 2014String Multiples for 3 different criteria in same cell -- "if", "or" "abs" --- not sure if any of these are correct
1) Criteria 1 and 2: In cell "E" I am wanting to minus "B from C", if "A" is greater than or equal to and less than "=>1000 or <15000"
2) and the other criteria would be if "A" is greater than or equal to ">=15000" then minus "b from d" -- answer would also be in the same cell "e".
I hope I am saying my needs correctly. Basically, I have 3 different sales criteria with 3 different bonus offers. One offer is for sales less than 10,000, another offer is for the range 10,000 to 14,999 and the last is for the range 15,000 or more. I am actually linking the values from different worksheets, however I have used generically "A, B, C, D and E".
below are the 3 separate formulas that do work on specific individual rows. However, I really need the criteria for all three variables in the same cell. Right now I am just copy/paste the appropriate formula that fits the specific value in each row.
=IF(summary!$E8>15000,SUM(F3-summary!D2),0)
=IF($E4<15000,ABS(F4-summary!D3),IF($E4>=10000,0,(F4-summary!D3)))
=IF($E14<15000,ABS(F14-summary!D13),IF($E14>=10000,0,(F14-summary!D14)))
Selecting Specific Strings From A Cell
Oct 17, 2008I'm using Excel 2003 and I have a small problem using text functions. My problem is that in column 'A' I have a name and their year next to it between brackets, like so: Wright Jeffrey (1PBSO)
Now what I have to do, is make two new columns where I extract the surname (Wright) to one columns and the first name in another column (Jeffrey), the "(1PBSO)" doesn't have to go anywhere. Now I wouldn't have a problem with this normally but in the list I have names like 'Van Tongerloo Johan' where VAN TONGERLOO is the surname and JOHAN is the first name. For the first name (Wright Jeffrey (1PBSO)) I just used the LEFT function and then searched for the first space in the string but that doesn't work in the second example anymore.
Look For Identical Strings And Add Cell Values Beside Each
Feb 18, 2009Hi guys, I am looking for a macro to do the following:
Go down a column and identify all accounts that are identical, then add up the values that are 5 columns to the right of each account and paste them on another sheet along with the account code (there are 12 values for each account to be added with the other identical accounts).
I've attached a spreadsheet, because I understnad this might be kind of confusing. In essence:
1. Go down column C
2. Look for accounts that are identical
3. Add up the values for each account in columns G:R
4. Copy and paste the added values to another sheet along with columns C:F for each account to identify it.

Use Cell Data For Filter Criteria
Feb 15, 2010I have had no luck searching for an answer so better to ask. I am using auto filter on Sheet1 and filtering a column of dates. What I need is for the criteria for the auto filter to be pulled from cell H1 on Sheet 2. Is this possible or is auto filter the wrong direction to go? I am looking to find all the rows on Sheet 1 that contain the date found in cell H1 on Sheet 2. Then I am going to cut and paste that data to another worksheet. I think I have all the rest of it figured out but am stumped at the filtering portion.
