FIlter Data

[bala06]

Dear Excel Users

I would like to filter the filter the data according to certain numbers.

For example my data looks like this

1049 1049-hydrogen-bond-frame.dat.c.d.lw 1049-hydrogen-bond-frame.dat.c.d.pw [(34652 'SPC' 'X2591G' 4758 'UNK' 'Z1203B' 34653 'SPC' 'X2591G' 3895 'LYS' 'A 347B') (57086 'SPC' 'X2755G' 4733 'UNK' 'Z1203B' 57087 'SPC' 'X2755G' 3895 'LYS' 'A 347B')]
1054 1054-hydrogen-bond-frame.dat.c.d.lw 1054-hydrogen-bond-frame.dat.c.d.pw [(34652 'SPC' 'X2591G' 4758 'UNK' 'Z1203B' 34653 'SPC' 'X2591G' 3895 'LYS' 'A 347B')]
1055 1055-hydrogen-bond-frame.dat.c.d.lw 1055-hydrogen-bond-frame.dat.c.d.pw [(34652 'SPC' 'X2591G' 4758 'UNK' 'Z1203B' 34653 'SPC' 'X2591G' 3895 'LYS' 'A 347B') (4715 'UNK' 'Z1203B' 34653 'SPC' 'X2591G' 34653 'SPC' 'X2591G' 3895 'LYS' 'A 347B') (57086 'SPC' 'X2755G' 4733 'UNK' 'Z1203B' 57087 'SPC' 'X2755G' 3895 'LYS' 'A 347B') (57086 'SPC' 'X2755G' 4733 'UNK' 'Z1203B' 57087 'SPC' 'X2755G' 3947 'HIS' 'A 350B')]

I have to filter the data based on two numbers "4758 and 3895" and my final output should like this

1049 - 4758 3895
1054 - 4758 3895
1055 - 4758 3895

But the in my data, this numbers varies at different position according to length of the data.

Kindly advice.

Many Thanks

If that helps
B2
:=LEFT(A2,FIND("-",A2)-1)

C1:=IF(AND(ISNUMBER(FIND("4758",A2)),ISNUMBER(FIND("3895",A2))),"4758 3895","")

Copy both down.
Then you can filter bu column C.
This will work with parameters you have supplied.

Dear Robert

It works.

Many Thanks

Dear Robert

It works.

Many Thanks

Dear Robert

The formula works, but the numbers that are mapping in the formula should be in same brackets.

If the two numbers are present in separete brackets, i would like to eliminate those numbers.

Please advice.

Many Thanks

So in your second example(1054) the formula shoudl not return any value?
And the results will be:

1049 - 4758 3895
1055 - 4758 3895

Dear Robert

Yes, thats correct.

Sorry I havn't noticed carefully, while posting the thread.

Try this(but it will work if those two numbers are in first brackets)

=IF(AND(ISNUMBER(FIND("4758",LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"(","@",2),FIND("@",SUBSTITUTE(A2,"(","@",2))))),ISNUMBER(FIND("3895",LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"(","@",2),FIND("@",SUBSTITUTE(A2,"(","@",2)))))),"4758 3895","")

Will you have any other posiblities?

Dear Robert

Thanks for prompt response.

But my data varies with length of the text and the corresponding numbers may present in 3rd or 4th brackets also.

I don't know, may macros script might help in this not sure (i'm not in familiar in macros ).

Kindly advice.
