Copy/Paste from once cell to another
Is there a way to create a macro or formula that will copy just the first word of a cell and past it into a new cell? To take that further, copy the first word out of each cell in a column and past those into cells within a new column? -- ebraun01 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ebraun01's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30340 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=504474 |

Perfect, works great. Now is there a way to tell it when to run at a time of my choosing. In other words I would prefer to not just have the formula within the cells but to hit a button or run a macro and have the formula ran. -- ebraun01 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ebraun01's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30340 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=504474 |

Thanks Don, I really appreciate your great help. That looks like to much information for a cell formula..where does that go? -- ebraun01 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ebraun01's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30340 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=504474 |

You did ask for a macro, didn't you? use alt f11 to put into a module and
then assign to a button or run from alt f8 -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "ebraun01" wrote in message ... Thanks Don, I really appreciate your great help.

Your right, I did ask for a macro.. must have taken my stupid pill that day. I created a macro and ran it and received a compile error. "sub or function not defined" with "-Offset(, 1) =" -highlighted in blue. Do I need to put something after the = but before the word "left"? -- ebraun01 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ebraun01's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30340 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=504474 |

c.offset Sub getfirstword() lr=cells(rows.count,"f").end(xlup).row For Each c In Range("f9:f" & lr) c.offset(, 1) = Left(c, InStr(c, " ") - 1) Next End Sub -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "ebraun01" wrote in message ...
