Hi guys,

One option with Power query

let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
    #"Extracted Text Between Delimiters" = Table.TransformColumns(Source, {{"BRAND", each Text.BetweenDelimiters(_, " ", " ", 0, 1), type text}})
in
    #"Extracted Text Between Delimiters"

In case you need VBA:

Sub ExtractProductCode()
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim shtNames As Variant
    Dim rngBrand As Range, arrBrand As Variant
    Dim sBrand As String, posStart As Long, posEnd As Long
    Dim LastRow As Long, i As Long, iSht As Long
            
    shtNames = Array("Purchasing", "Selling")                   ' Update to your sheet names
    
    For iSht = 0 To UBound(shtNames)
        Set ws = Worksheets(shtNames(iSht))
        With ws
            LastRow = .Range("J" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
            Set rngBrand = .Range(.Cells(2, "J"), .Cells(LastRow, "J"))
            arrBrand = rngBrand.Value
        End With
        
        For i = 1 To UBound(arrBrand)
            sBrand = arrBrand(i, 1)
            posStart = InStr(1, sBrand, " ") + 1
            posEnd = InStrRev(sBrand, " ") - 1
            arrBrand(i, 1) = Mid(sBrand, posStart, posEnd - posStart + 1)
        Next i
        
        rngBrand.Value = arrBrand
    
    Next iSht
End Sub

and how fix error invalid procedure call in this line

arrBrand(i, 1) = Mid(sBrand, posStart, posEnd - posStart + 1)

after delete the items . I mean when run the macro every time?

 

[Alex Blakenburg]

1) Check the highlighted cell before you run the macro, does it have an additional space on the end ?
2) How do you want to check if the procedure is run twice ? Does each row have 4 space separated components before and 2 components after ? I need some way of determining if it needs to be split up.

 

[Alex Blakenburg]

I will be logging off soon so pre-empting a reply to my questions here is a different approach.

Sub ExtractProductCode_Split()

    Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim shtNames As Variant
    Dim rngBrand As Range, arrBrand As Variant
    Dim sBrand As String, posStart As Long, posEnd As Long
    Dim splitBrand As Variant
    Dim LastRow As Long, i As Long, iSht As Long
            
    shtNames = Array("Purchasing", "Selling")                   ' Update to your sheet names
    
    For iSht = 0 To UBound(shtNames)
        Set ws = Worksheets(shtNames(iSht))
        With ws
            LastRow = .Range("J" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
            Set rngBrand = .Range(.Cells(2, "J"), .Cells(LastRow, "J"))
            arrBrand = rngBrand.Value
        End With
        
        For i = 1 To UBound(arrBrand)
            sBrand = Application.Trim(arrBrand(i, 1))
            splitBrand = Split(sBrand, " ")
            If UBound(splitBrand) = 3 Then
                arrBrand(i, 1) = splitBrand(1) & " " & splitBrand(2)
            End If
        Next i
        
        rngBrand.Value = arrBrand
    
    Next iSht
End Sub

 

[abdo meghari]

thanks but it's still as highlighted cell in the picture!

 

[Alex Blakenburg]

That Brand on Line 19 has an extra space on the end.
If it you are still experiencing the same issue then you didn't run the 2nd version of the code that I gave you in Post #7.
The 2nd version also allows you to run it multiple times and it will only update the rows that have 4 parts to the Brand column value.

Note: I have changed the name of it, so if you are using a button you may be running the previous code.

 

[abdo meghari]

That Brand on Line 19 has an extra space on the end.

sorry about it.

it will only update the rows that have 4 parts to the Brand column value.

may you make 5 or 6 parts to the Brand column value.
I have some brands contains 5 or 6 parts, this is really rare but they're existed.
