Dear All,
I would like to split one text file (example bellow) containing
several packs of data with the head "MW-....." into one excel file
for which each sheet should contain the data bellow the "MW... "
separated into four columns. After that, I will have to count the
number of times that apear each one of the strings present in the
columns (For example, to the sheet MW-
Silks_1_10-071f53284b36f9841994574243ecb063, it appears on column 3
the string coil 4 times.
Finally, the output should be something like:
For column 3:

coil turn helix bend bridge sheet
MW-Silks_1_10-071f53284b36f9841994574243ecb063 4

Put your data in a blank worksheet starting in A2. Put column headers in C1:G1
as appropriate (I used "Header", "Column1", "Column2", "Column3" and "Column4").
In C2:G2, enter the following formulas and copy down as needed:

C2 = IF(D2="","",IF(C1="",A1,C1))

D2 = IF(ISERROR(FIND(" ",A2)),"",TRIM(LEFT(A2,FIND(" ",A2))))

E2 = TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE($A2," ",REPT(" ",99),2)," ",
REPT(" ",99),1),99,99))

F2 = TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A2," ",REPT(" ",99),3)," ",
REPT(" ",99),2),99,99))

G2 = TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(A2," ",REPT(" ",99),3),99,99))

Place your cursor in C2 and select Data / PivotTable and PivotChart Report and
then click Finished.

From the PivotTable Field List drag "Header" to the Row Fields area and drag
"Column3" to the Column Fields area and the Data Items area. In the drop down
for "Column3" in the Column Fields area, uncheck the blank data. You can drag
the individual column headers to get them in the proper order, if that is
necessary (default is alphabetical).

Dear Glenn,
I'm having some problemas. Some of your stepes suggestions seems that
they did not work fine with me. Would it be possible that you send me
a sample sheet?
Thanks in advance,
Luciano

I had to make some small modifications to the formulas to handle leading spaces
in the data I copied from your original message. Not sure if they are present
in the actual data or not, but if they are it should work now.

C2 = IF(D2="","",IF(C1="",A1,C1))

D2 = IF(ISERROR(FIND(" ",A2)),"",TRIM(LEFT(TRIM(A2),
FIND(" ",TRIM(A2)))))

E2 = TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(A2)," ",
REPT(" ",99),2)," ",REPT(" ",99),1),99,99))

F2 = TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(A2)," ",
REPT(" ",99),3)," ",REPT(" ",99),2),99,99))

G2 = TRIM(MID(SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(A2)," ",REPT(" ",99),3),99,99))

Dear Glenn,
Thank you very much for your file.
The spaces are inserted. However, my data have hundreds of headers and
consequently data, but I can not understand how could I put them to
the PivotTable. The number of headers is variable for each situation.
Thanks in advance,
Luciano

There were no limits to the solution I provided, unless your data is
significantly different than your example. Save a copy of your actual data to
www.savefile.com and I'll look at it.

That file has over 870,000 lines of data in it, if I'm reading it correctly.
I'm using Excel 2003, which only has 65,536 rows, so I can't even process it all
at once. A smaller sample would have been sufficient.

Having said that, if I open your document in Word and copy a large chunk of data
into my spreadsheet, it works exactly as expected.

Dear Glenn,
I think that it will be necessary that I find another strategy since
my text files are as large as that one I sent you.
Despite I use Excel 2007, I think that it will not be possible perfom
this operation for all cases.
Thank you very much for all your help.
