Replace Word In MS Word With Varable From MS Excel

May 1, 2009

I am in the middle of automating a process here at work, the program takes a word, "pencil" for example, from excel. It will then open up a word document with content already in it (premade template). The program will then find all instances of a string, "placepencilhere" for example, and will replace that instance with the string from excel.

Basically I want to be able to take a variable that has a stored string value from excel and use it to replace another variable in a word document.

I tried recording a replace (ctrl+f, replace tab) macro, copying the code, and inserting it into the excel vba code.. but I get a error message. Here is what I have:

Capitalizing The First Letter Of Every Word In A Cell, Without Changing Anything Else

Nov 23, 2008

What I need to do is fairly simple to explain:

I want to have the first letter of every word in a cell to be capitalized, but the rest of each word must remain as is.

Ie: If I have "My AMD CPU still has some pew-pew" in a cell, I want to be able to use a function, let's say:

=CapFix("My AMD CPU still has some pew-pew")

and the output should be:

My AMD CPU Still Has Some Pew-pew

I've tried using:

=PROPER("My AMD CPU still has some pew-pew")

But the output is:

My Amd Cpu Still Has Some Pew-pew

Which is incorrect (capitalization in the rest of the words "AMD" and "CPU" is lost). Does anybody here know what can be done to solve this problem, or have any info about what I can use to solve it? I have not been able to find any built-in Excel function to solve this, nor ASAP Utilities and I can add VBA code and macros, I just don't know how to manipulate the strings correctly or do the loops, etc that I think will be necessary to solve this.

If anyone could help, it would be much appreciated. I've not seen a single site where a similar problem has been posted. Even if you can't give me a full solution, but can point me in any direction that would be useful, I'd be really grateful.

Find And Replace A Specific Letter/number Combination

Jul 9, 2008

I have a column of references I wish to standardize. Contained within a general text description there is also an order-specific reference number, which is not relevant for my purposes. I wish to find all of these numbers and replace them with nothing (i.e. retain the rest of the description).

The reference numbers are always in the format "P#####/##". Unfortunately these references are in the middle of the text field, not at the start or end, so I can't use a LEFT or RIGHT formula to delete them.

Once these reference numbers have been deleted I will then be able to filter for unique records only. When I do this at the moment the filtering has no effect due to these specific reference numbers.

I have the following letters in cells
D2= A
D3=G
D4 =L

These represent Accomodation,Groceries, and Liquor.
Starting at E12 I want a formula , to drag down the column, which will show either Accomodation, Groceries or Liquor depending on the letter I put in cell D12,

VBA To Replace One Word In A Cell With Another

Feb 26, 2014

I found the below code and have tried adapting it without success.

Code:
Sub Colorize_Word()
Dim Found As Range, FirstFound As String
Dim FindWhat As String, MyColor As Long, Counter As Integer

MyColor = 3

FindWhat = LCase(InputBox("Find what word?", "Color word"))

[Code] ..........

This code finds any string in a cell of your choice and colors it red. I would really like to replace the string with my own string of text. I couldn't use the simple find and replace function as this replaces the WHOLE cell content not just one word.

I believe the line of code that needs editing most is this one

Do
Found.Characters(Counter, Len(FindWhat)).Font.ColorIndex = MyColor
Counter = InStr(Counter + 1, LCase(Found), FindWhat)

But I cannot figure out how to use the replace function with this.

Find And Replace Whole Word?

Looking to build a simple find and replace with an added condition that it must match the whole word since some of my data appears as below:

abc.abc_no

I am trying to replace abc with alphabets and I need the result: alphabets.abc_no not alphabets.alphabets_no.

What do you think the best approach to this would be? All my data that I need converted is in one column (Column C) which are thousands of rows long and on another sheet I have a list of the conversions I need to do (about 150 - columns A and B) setup like:

A |B

Replace Some Of The Text In Word (Docx)

Oct 29, 2011

I have a VBA that opens a word document where I have a standard text, and some of the words are ment to change depending on who customer we have in mind.

It seems a bit unstable, sometimes it takes half of the words, if I add a sign like a comma after the word it seems to catch them better and manage to replace them.

Right now it doesn't change any of the words....

This is is:
