Hi,
Looking for an easy solution to my data, which have cells consisting Numbers, alpha characters, symbols, again numbers.
The location of numbers are not fixed, and sometime there is alpha characters , numbers, alpha characters, numbers, ...

Question:
how can i replace all the alpha characters (some are non-english language) to a single space or any other character so that i can view the numbers, and in case of multiple numbers i can see it with a single space in between.

Sample:-

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]A1[/TD]
[TD]asdf رقم الاستماره11843332 ب.م25913330525df 552as[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]A2[/TD]
[TD]11847207 يوسف مزيد[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]A3[/TD]
[TD]11848135 رقم الاستماره-11848135[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


Required results:-
with single space replacing single or multiple spaces/non-num characters:-
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]A1[/TD]
[TD]25913330525 11843332 552[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]A2[/TD]
[TD]11847207[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]A3[/TD]
[TD]11848135 11848135[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

OR

with single character replacing single or multiple spaces/non-num characters:-
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]A1[/TD]
[TD]25913330525|11843332|552[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]A2[/TD]
[TD]11847207[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]A3[/TD]
[TD]11848135|11848135[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]



Thanks in advance.
 

Excel Facts

Pivot Table Drill Down
Double-click any number in a pivot table to create a new report showing all detail rows that make up that number
Give this macro a try...

Code:
Sub NumbersOnlySpaceDelimited()
  Dim X As Long, LastRow As Long, Text As String, Cell As Range
  LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
  For Each Cell In Range("A1:A" & LastRow)
    Text = Cell.Value
    For X = 1 To Len(Text)
      If Mid(Text, X, 1) Like "[!0-9]" Then Mid(Text, X, 1) = " "
    Next
    Cell.Value = Application.Trim(Text)
  Next
End Sub

HOW TO INSTALL MACROs
------------------------------------
If you are new to macros, they are easy to install and use. To install it, simply press ALT+F11 to go into the VB editor and, once there, click Insert/Module on its menu bar, then copy/paste the above code into the code window that just opened up. That's it.... you are done. To use the macro, go back to the worksheet with your data on it and press ALT+F8, select the macro name (NumbersOnlySpaceDelimited) from the list that appears and click the Run button. The macro will execute and perform the action(s) you asked for. If you are using XL2007 or above, make sure you save your file as an "Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook (*.xlsm).

    Next
    Cell.Value = Application.Trim(Text)
  Next
End Sub

Works like a charm.
I tried replacing the " " (space) in the code to test another character instead of space, but the results were not what i was expecting. But no worries, this is i suppose is the best solution in my scenario.
Thanks a lot, don't have the words to express my joy.:biggrin:

Here is a macro that will allow you to set the delimiter character to be used between your numbers, but note it is not as efficient as the one I posted earlier for space delimiters (although for the size text strings you are using, it would probably take quite a number of rows of data before you would be able to notice the difference)...

Rich (BB code):
Sub NumbersOnlySpaceDelimited()
  Dim X As Long, LastRow As Long, Text As String, Cell As Range
  Const Char As String = "|"
  LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
  For Each Cell In Range("A1:A" & LastRow)
    Text = Cell.Value
    For X = 1 To Len(Text)
      If Mid(Text, X, 1) Like "[!0-9]" Then Mid(Text, X, 1) = Char
    Next
    Do While InStr(Text, Char & Char)
      Text = Replace(Text, Char & Char, Char)
    Loop
    If Left(Text, 1) = Char Then Text = Mid(Text, 2)
    If Right(Text, 1) = Char Then Text = Left(Text, Len(Text) - 1)
    Cell.Value = Text
  Next
End Sub

Note: You control the character that will be used as the delimiter by setting the Char constant (in the Const statement highlighted in red)... in the above code, I set it to the vertical bar character (|).

you are the man Rick Rothstein ;)
I agree with you on that, that the first module is the best in practice.
May i ask you for one more modification for the first module?
I found another solution on the net, which allows the user to manually select the range of cells, find below the code:-

How can i impliment the manual selection of the cells.
Thanks once again.

you are the man Rick Rothstein ;)
I agree with you on that, that the first module is the best in practice.
May i ask you for one more modification for the first module?
I found another solution on the net, which allows the user to manually select the range of cells, find below the code:-

How can i impliment the manual selection of the cells.
Thanks once again.


Here are both macros modified to work on the selected range of cells the user selects when asked by the program (the user does not have to select the cells before running the code, although I can modify the code to work that way instead if you want). Also note I changed the name of the second macro to something more appropriate (I noticed I did not change its name when I originally posted it)...

Code:
Sub NumbersOnlySpaceDelimited()
  Dim X As Long, Text As String, Cell As Range
  On Error GoTo NothingSelected
  For Each Cell In Application.InputBox("Please select the range to process.", Type:=8)
    Text = Cell.Value
    For X = 1 To Len(Text)
      If Mid(Text, X, 1) Like "[!0-9]" Then Mid(Text, X, 1) = " "
    Next
    Cell.Value = Application.Trim(Text)
  Next
NothingSelected:
End Sub

Code:
Sub NumbersOnlyUserSelectedDelimiter()
  Dim X As Long, Text As String, Cell As Range
  Const Char As String = "|"
  On Error GoTo NothingSelected
  For Each Cell In Application.InputBox("Please select the range to process.", Type:=8)
    Text = Cell.Value
    For X = 1 To Len(Text)
      If Mid(Text, X, 1) Like "[!0-9]" Then Mid(Text, X, 1) = Char
    Next
    Do While InStr(Text, Char & Char)
      Text = Replace(Text, Char & Char, Char)
    Loop
    If Left(Text, 1) = Char Then Text = Mid(Text, 2)
    If Right(Text, 1) = Char Then Text = Left(Text, Len(Text) - 1)
    Cell.Value = Text
  Next
NothingSelected:
End Sub

Thats so kind of you. I wish we have more like you in this world. Can you imagine that how much time and hard work will be reduced by your great help. We already suffered for years doing this manually.
May God bless you.
Thank you so much.

You are quite welcome... I am glad I was able to be of some help to you. I was thinking about your delimiter some more and came up with a generalized macro that you may find more useful... it asks you for the range to process (like my last posting's code did) and then it asks you for the delimiter you want to place between the numbers... so you can type a space character, a vertical bar or whatever Note that the delimiter can be more than one character if desired. So if you wanted to have a space/dash/space between the number for readability, then you can type those three characters into the InputBox and those three characters will appear between each number. Of course, typing just a single character, like a slash will result in that single character being placed between the numbers.

Code:
Sub NumbersOnlyUserSelectedDelimiter()
  Dim X As Long, Text As String, Delim As String
  Dim Cell As Range, UserSelection As Range
  On Error GoTo NothingSelected
  Set UserSelection = Application.InputBox("Please select the range to process.", "Select Range", Type:=8)
  On Error GoTo 0
  Delim = Application.InputBox("What delimiter do you want to use between the numbers?", "Select Delimiter")
  If Len(Delim) And Delim <> "False" Then
    If Delim Like "*#*" Then
      MsgBox "You specified a delimiter the contains a digit in it..." & vbLf & _
              "digits are not an allowed character..." & vbLf & vbLf & "Program ends!"
    Else
      For Each Cell In UserSelection
        Text = Cell.Value
        For X = Len(Text) To 1 Step -1
          If Mid(Text, X, 1) Like "[!0-9]" Then Mid(Text, X, 1) = Chr(8)
        Next
        Do While InStr(Text, Chr(8) & Chr(8))
          Text = Replace(Text, Chr(8) & Chr(8), Chr(8))
        Loop
        If Left(Text, 1) = Chr(8) Then Text = Mid(Text, 2)
        If Right(Text, 1) = Chr(8) Then Text = Left(Text, Len(Text) - 1)
        Cell.Value = Replace(Text, Chr(8), Delim)
      Next
    End If
  Else
    MsgBox "You did not specify a delimiter..." & vbLf & vbLf & "Program ends!"
  End If
  Exit Sub
NothingSelected:
  MsgBox "You did not select a range to process..." & vbLf & vbLf & "Program ends!"
End Sub

Solution
Excellent Job, thank you for your care & help. All in one, i like it.
Can you advise me on how to start writing macros for Excel? I am using Advance Excel, but lack the customization using macros.
Would love to learn macros (basic to advance).
Thanks once again.
