How change cell to another character, add comma, & continue next c

[ILoveMyCorgi]

I have an Excel spreadsheet that has as a header row: #, Date, Per0, Per1,
Per2, Per3, Per4, Per5, Per6, Per7. The rows below have the number, date,
then for Per0 through Per7 may have a T in the cell. Sometimes the cell may
have another character other than a T. What I need to do is take the T and
change it to, let's say a 3 [for Per3] then add a comma and continue to the
next cell [if there is another T] and add, hypothetically a 5 for Per5... and
so on until the end of the rows with a number and date. If anyone can help
me, I'd appreciate it. Hope you have a great day and a good weekend....

If anyone can help

Do you want the outcome to replace the data in the original sheet, or
populate a new sheet?

What do you want to do if there are no "t"'s in the row?

It seems you could just use the find/replace function.

change it to, let's say a 3 [for Per3] then add a comma and continue tothe

It is unclear whether where you want this output at. Since you posted to the
programming group, one could assume you are looking for VBA code; but, if
you are, where do you want the outcome placed... in an array, in another
cell, somewhere else? Personally, I think you are looking for a worksheet
formula (microsoft.public.excel.worksheet.functions would have been a better
newsgroup to use if that is the case); but again, where do you want the
output... in a new column or to replace the contents of C:J for each row?
Anyway, assuming you want a formula, and using a new column (same row as the
data), this formula can be used as a starting point...

=A2&" "&TEXT(B2,"mm/dd/yyyy")&" "&SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(IF(C2="T","0","")&
" "&IF(D2="T",1,"")&" "&IF(E2="T",2,"")&" "&IF(F2="T",3,"")&" "&IF(
G2="T",4,"")&" "&IF(H2="T",5,"")&" "&IF(I2="T",6,"")&" "&IF(J2="T",
7,""))," ",",")

Copy it down as needed.

It could be on a new sheet so that the outcome would look something like:
1234 09/25/2008 3,5
or
56789 09/24/2008 1,2,3,4,5,6,7

Thansk for the formula, but I was hoping for VBA code and have the output on
a separate worksheet within the file. Output would be first column: number,
second: date, third column: 2, 3, 5... etc.

Hi Rick and OP

I'm trying to understand how to convert the questions into the proper
logic, so I'm examining your code, Thanks for sharing your knowledge,
Rick.

I copied the code and it ran after I changed the names of the
worksheets to
DataSheet and OutputSheet.

Also, It didn't return any values but the number and date for each row
until I changed

the line

If .Cells(X, Z).Value = "T" Then

to

If .Cells(X, Z).Value = "t" Then

because I had used lowercase t.

I made two more changes because the code was returning data like

45879 10/10/2007 t
45880 10/11/2007 t
45881 10/12/2007 t,t

First, I changed
Output = Output & .Cells(X, Z).Value

to

Output = Output & Z


But the numbers didn't match Per0, Per1, etc

so i added

Output = Output & (Z - 3)

That's my experience with this code,

Dan

 

[Rick Rothstein]

That might mean you data is located in different columns than I assumed. I
figured you used columns A thru J for you data and that data started on Row
2. Did you?

[dan dungan]

That's right,

But I think the OP wanted something like if there is a T in Per0, the
data would look like

####, MM/DD/YY 0

Does that make any sense?

Dan

 

[Rick Rothstein]

First of all, I take your posting to mean you did not get the error message
that the OP got (in other words, my code ran "error" free on your system).

Okay, yes, I did forgot to change my test code so that the "T" values would
output their numerical equivalents when creating the output for the output
sheet (thanks for spotting that problem in my code). The modification you
made to my code there was the correct method to get the numbers rather than
the letters "T".

As for the "T" versus "t" test... I used "T" because the is what the OP said
was being used. However, to account for either an upper or lower case "T"
(rather than only one or the other), I would use this test line instead...

If .Cells(X, Z).Value Like "[Tt]" Then

 

[dan dungan]

Hi Rick

First of all, I take your posting to mean you did not get the error message
that the OP got (in other words, my code ran "error" free on your system).

I got the same error: 9 Subscript out of range until I used the same
worksheet names in your code. Now it runs error free.

Thanks for your time and input.

Dan

 

[Rick Rothstein]

Ah, I see. Actually, the intent was for the you, and the OP, to change the
example worksheet names I used in my code to whatever actual worksheet name
you are using in your own workbook. In other words, where my code
had.this...

With Worksheets("DataSheet")

the you, and the OP, were supposed to change "DataSheet" to whatever name
your own worksheet has. So, for example, if your data was located on
"MyDataSheet3", then the above code line was to be changed to this...

With Worksheets("MyDataSheet3")

and similar change should be made where I used this...

With Worksheets("OutputSheet")

in my code also (using the actual name you gave to your output worksheet in
place of my example worksheet name of "OutputSheet"). The key thing to note
is the code was supposed to be changed to match your actual conditions,
*not* the other way around. If the OP had posted the worksheet names for us
in the original posting, I would have used them in my code; since the OP
didn't, I simply made up example names instead.

 

[Rick Rothstein]

Aside from the columns being located in different places, Dan has reminded
me in one of his postings that if you forgot to change the worksheet names
from the example names of "DataSheet" and "OutputSheet" that I used (I had
to use something as you didn't tell us what your actual worksheet names
were), to what your actual worksheet names are, you would also get the same
error message that you posted.

Ok. I liked your names, though.

And I didn't want to mess it up before I understood it better.

[ILoveMyCorgi]

Thanks! I changed the code renaming the worksheets and the code ran!
Unfortunately, instead of having the result in one cell, I wanted to have the
output in three separate columns; i.e., cola 1234 colb 08/25/2008 COLC 1,2,3.
I also wanted the "1,3,5" if columns Per1, Per3, and Per5 had a T in it... I
hope you can help me with this. Thanks, everyone!

 

[ILoveMyCorgi]

I dd change the code but the output I wanted was more on the lines of the
formula: =A2&" "&TEXT(B2,"mm/dd/yyyy")&" "&SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(IF(C2="T","0","")&
" "&IF(D2="T",1,"")&" "&IF(E2="T",2,"")&" "&IF(F2="T",3,"")&" "&IF(
G2="T",4,"")&" "&IF(H2="T",5,"")&" "&IF(I2="T",6,"")&" "&IF(J2="T",

I was hoping for a quick and easy RUN once I extract my data.
