Replacing Contents Of Cells?

Apr 11, 2003

I am doing a "text to columns" in a VBA script and each time it runs I get a "Do you wnat to replace contents of the destination cells" prompt. I will always say yes to this prompt. Is there something I can put into the code to avoid this prompt all together, again the answer will always be yes to the prompt.

Replacing Contents Of A Cell With Another Based On Search Result?

Feb 24, 2014

My current problem is that I need to search two tabs of data and use the results to modify the contents of one cell in the first tab.

I'll try to be as clear as possible:

tab1 has relevant cells "a" and "b", same row

tab2 has 3 relevant cells "c", "d", and "e", all on the same row

All cells are text values - some digits, but should be treated as a regular String.

The search needs to look at cells "a" and "b", find their match in "c" and "d", then replace the original value of "b" with the value in "e" after a match has been found.

Replacing Any 0 Length Cells With A Value

Nov 30, 2011

I have been using this code below to replace any blank cells with the number 0 but recently I have encountered an error if the format of the cell is a string.

Code:

Range("A1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).Value = "0"

Is there a way to change this so it looks at the length of the cell, if the length of the cell is 0 then set the value = 0?

Matching Cells And Replacing Data

Apr 14, 2009

We have a report with 2 different sheets. On sheet one there are 13,000 rows of data and columns A-H are filled with different data. column A is our item id and column G has a date that states when the item was sold last. Well, the date in column G is wrong for about 7800 rows and needs changed.

The second sheet in the file is the 7800 rows with just the item id in column A and the correct date in column B. We are looking for an easy way to replace the rows in the first sheet with the correct information from the rows in the second sheet without manually replacing it line by line.

I almost forgot to add in, that in both sheets, column A with the item ids are the same item ids on both those sheets. So column A on sheet one has 13000 rows and included in those 13000 are the 7800 item ids on sheet 2.

We tried using the VLookup function that is incorporated into excel but had absolutly no luck, mostly because we have never used this function before. Sheet one already has all the lines of sheet 2, its just that sheet one has the wrong dates for the item ids and sheet 2 has the correct dates. im trying to replace the dates on sheet one from the dates on sheet 2 matching on the item ids from both sheets......

How To Add More Data To Existing Cells Without Replacing It

May 2, 2007

need to add same data to every other existing cell in the column, but not replace the data already in it, but to add to it. I've tried to google the answer and look here, but I probably use bad search terms.

For example, I need to add "QW" after each of these lines:

data1432
data9292
data3933
data3939

so it would look like this:

data1432QW
data9292QW
data3933QW
data3939QW

I have a few thousand rows of data, so wouldn't rather not do it manually cell by cell by typing :-)

Replacing Referenced Cells With Static Text?

Feb 26, 2013

I'm making a vba macro that takes a workbook and splits and saves it as individual sheets. In this process I need to find all the referenced cells (ie =E5) and change them to their text or numeric value. A few things I've found on the form and tired with no success:

Selection is a column selected from the top to the last used cell (I know there is only 4 columns that have references)

VB:
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste = xlPasteValues

Also tried:

VB:
ActiveSheet.UsedRange = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Value

I feel like one of these should be working. But even after the paste the values are still references.

Edit: An afterthought, if I were to select the whole sheet and do a copy/special paste would it replace all formula cells with their calculated value?

Replacing All Cleared Cells With Default Content?

Apr 25, 2014

I'm trying to use the Worksheet_Change event to replace all cleared cells with a default formula. This allows users to override the default, or restore the default when they need to:

If Not Intersect(Target, Range("Data")) Is Nothing And Target.Value = "" Then
Range("DefaultFormula").Copy
ActiveSheet.Paste
ActiveSheet.Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If

Here are the results with various different regions selected:

Single cell selected and cleared -- works. Multiple cells selected and cleared -- doesn't work if the first area selected contains more than one cell. Otherwise, it works, no matter how many other areas are selected.

Example1: Selected range is (D2:E2, G2) in that order, it does not copy the formula into the cleared cells. Example2: Selected range is (G2, D2:E2) in that order, the code does copy the formula into all the cleared cells as desired.

The "IF" condition is not TRUE when the initial area has more than one cell.

Having Cells Change Their Contents According To What The Contents Of Other Cells Are

Mar 25, 2008

I have a column in my .XLS whose contents I want to change depending on what the contents of the cells of a different column are. However, I only want two cells from the same row to be dependent on each other. So, for example, if $A$1 reads "1" then $B$1 should read "apple" and if $A$2 reads "1" then $B$2 should read "apple"; if $A$12 reads "3" then $B$12 should read "pavement" etc.

Show Contents Of Vertical Cells In Horizontal Cells

Nov 21, 2008

I am referring to the post made by NBVC at http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...xcel-help.html, Try: =IF($A1="",INDIRECT("A"&ROW()-ROW($A$2)+COLUMN(B1)),"") in B2, copied across and down

I have a similar case but there are no empty rows between lists, what would be the formula to get the same results? (The transposed address should appear next to each first line of each block).

Earlier, I posted at http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...-one-cell.html and I got brilliant answers, I also would like to get benefit of the above mentioned formula but in cases when there are no empty rows between lists.

Clear Contents Of All Unlocked Cells (many Are Merged Cells

May 28, 2009

I am looking for a code that will clear all of my unlocked cell in sheet 1. That is not a problem but since many of the cells are merged I know it keeps throwing me an error saying cannot change contents of merged cells or something like that. Does anyone know how to get around this without unmerging the cells. I saw a code to unmerge all of the cells on a sheet but I really don't want to do this as I already have worked around most of my problems with the merged cells.

Add Cells Based On Contents Of Cells In Another Column

Feb 15, 2008

I have a spreadsheet that has columns stating both status and then further to the right in the row, currency totals. There are only two status options, Stocked and On Order. I need to add the total currency amounts based on this other column's listing and it must change if status changes.

(Put simpler:
Column A lists Stocked or On Order and Column B is the currency tied up in that row.
I need to make totals for the cells in column B based on the status listed in Column A and it must change when Column A is changed. This should result in two totals, one for Stock Status Currency and one for On Order Curreny)

I don't need the state in any cell. It can disappear as well as any commas. Is any of this possible?

Conditional Clear Contents Of Cells

Oct 10, 2008

I have a dropdown list in the range E17:E91 containing a list, and two of the values in the list are "DI" and "LTC". What I need to happen is if either of these are selected, the corresponding cell in column F needs to have it's contents cleared. Ex. if in E17 the value is ever either DI or LTC, cell F17 gets contents cleared. if column E contains ANYTHING ELSE, nothing happens. That's all, I've taken care of conditional formatting and data validation already. So even if data is pasted in the worksheet into column E it needs to recognize that and always act in real time.

Copy Row Based On Contents Of 2 Different Cells.

I would like to do now would be to only copy the rows that also contain the word sold in column C. I guess that I could do this in two stages, first copying the rows based on the year then copy again based on the word sold in column C. It would be nicer to make a slight modification to my code and do it all in one step.

Clear Contents Of Cells In A Range, LEN=0

Dec 23, 2009

I'm using a macro to copy the results of a formula and paste the values only on another sheet. The result includes lots of "blank" rows. I have another macro to get rid of the empty rows and move the information up.

It's not working because the "blank" rows aren't empty. Even though I paste values only, experimentation shows that the cells that appear blank return a false to the ISBLANK test with a length of 0.

So now I think I need a macro to run after the pastespecial command to look for cells within a range with a length of zero and delete the contents of those cells, but leave alone anything with a length of >0.

I am brand new to the idea of using VBA, but I have successfully cobbled together some stuff and can usually modify things to work.

It seems I need to maybe use some sort of IF statement along with a LEN and ClearContents. I don't want to delete the blank cells, just make them truly empty so that all of my actual data stays where it should, and my delete empty rows macro works correctly.

I did a search and see some info on clearing contents of columns or rows, or clearing contents based on the content of other columns or rows, but I'm unsure of how to tell it to search each cell within a range and clear the contents of 0-length cells to make them truly empty.

Merge The Contents Of Selected Cells

Feb 9, 2010

this is my first post in this great forum. let me start talking about what I need, I used to convert some statement from PDF to XLS format for my work purpose. sometimes I am facing a problem that some text in the statement will come in more than one row, actually I need it to come in one cell but it is coming in several rows that mean, if I want to sort or filter my data, I will lose some important data. What do I want???

I want a macro to merge the contents of selected cells and put it in the first cell of the selected cells then clear the other cells. I will use this macro for the following cases: Case 1- assume we have this data in any sheet.

B1=How
C1=are
D1=you? ( all without any space )

after selecting the said cells and applying this macro, the result will be:

B1=How are you? ( one space only between the content of the selected cells )
C1=D1=empty

Case 2- assume we have this data in any sheet.

B1=How.........

Modifying Contents Of A Cell Using Other Cells

May 27, 2013

I do not have excel or an xls for a sample, I will try and restate the question.

In Cell A1 It will be used for copying the contents of and pasting the completed information into web browsers.
In Cell A1 You will find This information contained and formatted in one cell alone.

Figure-1
A1=

Information About Company
Brief Story About Company
Product Name: (X)
UPC Number: (Y)
Serial Number: (Z)
Terms Of Sale
Etc

End Figure-1

I want to essential Modify (X)(Y)(Z) using different cells one for each variable. "All completed information will be found inside of A1"

Having Cell B1-B9 Being used as labels "Product Name" "UPC Number" "etc" and using cell C1-C9 to input variables for = (X)(Y)(Z)(ETC)

In reality from cell A1 will change dynamically, but some information will need to stay constant.

Every thing In B column will just be labels.
Every thing In C will be for variables.
