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

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.

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.

Thanks. This will work, but I was looking for a VBA solution so that when I
extract the data, the clerk can run the extract.

How about this macro then (change the two worksheet references in the two

where you output should go...

Sub ProcessPerColumns()
Dim X As Long

Dim LenOutput As Long

Dim Output As String
With Worksheets("DataSheet")
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For X = 2 To LastRow
Output = .Cells(X, "A") & " " & .Cells(X, "B") & " "
LenOutput = Len(Output)
For Z = 3 To 10 'Columns C thru J
If .Cells(X, Z).Value = "T" Then
If Len(Output) LenOutput Then Output = Output & ", "
Output = Output & .Cells(X, Z).Value
End If
Next

Default How change cell to another character, add comma, & continue ne

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

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

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?

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?

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.
