Hi,

I have a set of data in column A with text string in each row under Data sheet and would like to split text string in each row based on a listing of keywords ( Unique name ) under List sheet.
I copied set of formulas from google search and modified, the result is not met my expectation.

{=IFERROR(INDEX(List!$A$2:$A$71, SMALL(IF(COUNTIF($A2, "*"&List!$A$2:$A$71&"*"), MATCH(ROW(List!$A$2:$A$71), ROW(List!$A$2:$A$71)), ""), COLUMNS($M$1:M1))), "")}

Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to enter array formulas.



The expected result is to separate text string in each row by columnar result or the result can be concatenated with "+" as per sample below : -

Appreciate if someone can help to use better set of formulas or vba to solve the above problem
Thanks in advance

Hi,

Thanks for reply and the result is very close but not met the expected result.

For example, the expected result for

1) "COUNTIFSFINDLEFTRIGHT" is COUNTIFS+FIND+LEFT+RIGHT in stead of COUNT+COUNTIF+COUNTIFS+FIND+IF+LEFT+RIGHT.
2) "COUNTIFSCOUNTIF" is COUNTIFS+COUNTIFS in stead of COUNT+COUNTIF+COUNTIFS+IF
3) "COUNTIFSSUMPRODUCT" is COUNTIFS+SUMPRODUCT in stead of COUNT+COUNTIF+COUNTIFS+IF+SUM+SUMPRODUCT
4) "COUNTIFS" is COUNTIFS in stead of COUNT+COUNTIF+IF
5) "SUMPRODUCT" is SUMPRODUCT instead of SUM+SUMPRODUCT


Good try, thanks

Regards
Lenard

My bad, I thought your minisheet data was sort of the expected results.

Since COUNTIFS would give a match for either COUNTIFS, COUNTIF, or IF, the only way I can think of, is to sort the keywords by its length and to check the keywords with the longest length first. Once a match is found, it will be 'removed' so it wouldn't match any shorter length keywords anymore.

Try this amended version:

VBA Code: 
Function SplitText(Keywords As Range, Data As Range) As String
    Dim c As Range, s As String, d As String, lv As ListView, i As Long
    Set lv = New ListView
    lv.ColumnHeaders.Add
    
    i = 1
    For Each c In Keywords
        lv.ListItems.Add Text:=Format(Len(c.Value), "0000000000")
        lv.ListItems(i).ListSubItems.Add Text:=c.Value
        i = i + 1
    Next
    lv.SortKey = 0
    lv.SortOrder = lvwDescending
    lv.sorted = True
    
    d = Data.Value
    For i = 1 To lv.ListItems.Count
        If InStr(d, lv.ListItems(i).ListSubItems(1).Text) > 0 Then
            s = s & lv.ListItems(i).ListSubItems(1).Text & "+"
            d = Replace(d, lv.ListItems(i).ListSubItems(1).Text, "")
        End If
    Next
    
    SplitText = ""
    If s <> "" Then SplitText = Left(s, Len(s) - 1)
End Function

Requires reference to 'Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6)' or something similar if this exact version is not found. Maybe a different solution can be done with collections, but I just amended it with an existing code that I have that is using the ListView control for sorting. To add the reference, in VBA editor, click on Tools -> References... -> check 'Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6) -> OK

Hi,

Thanks again.

Sorry, I can not try the amended UDF "SplitText" as my Excel version 2019 VBA tools reference do not have MS Window Common Control SP6.

Is there any alternative or other option to replace ListView in VBA ?

Hi

Thanks for your suggestion.

But I'm not familiar with vba code to add listview control to userform and not sure about MS VB6 common controls

Hi Lenard, you don't need Vba to add a listview control. Once you have created the userform, double click on it and you should see a floating toolbox somewhere, look for the Listview control and drag to create it on the form. I think once you do that the reference will be automatically added, as Yasser pointed out (thanks Yasser for that!). If you don't see the toolbox, try looking for the tool bar from the one of the menu options at the top, I can't remember off my head where is it located (not on my computer now).

Meanwhile, try to get this to work, if you still can't get it working, I'll try giving a different solution tomorrow.

Hi,

I downloaded MS Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6) or MS VB6.0 Common Controls and run the patch, within the VBA reference dialog, I can't see the file MSCOMCTL.ocx. I searched and the file is simply not on the machine.

Thanks both of you.

I don't think listview control is available in toolbox as MS Windows Common Controls 6.0 or MS VB6 Common Controls patch is not successfully added to my machine.

I'm not sure why the file MSCOMCTL.ocx is not found in VBA reference dialog after running the patch
