there was a similar question answered but in practice it doesn't quite work. I don't know if there is a better way to accomplish my task.
I need to extract the data between "(" and the third "," for example
$$ Data_out(3,47,0,40,0,0,2,8.01) and having the result be 3,47,0 I will add below what I've tried
Dim str As String
Dim openPos As Integer
Dim closePos As Integer
Dim midBit As String
ActiveSheet.Range("A2").Activate
Do While Range("A:A").Cells(i, 1).Value <> ""
On Error Resume Next
openPos = InStr(str, "(")
On Error Resume Next
closePos = InStr(str, ",0,")
On Error Resume Next
midBit = Mid(str, openPos + 1, closePos - openPos - 1)
extract_value = midBit
ActiveCell.Value = midBit
i = i + 1
Loop
Different approach:
Sub Tester()
Dim txt, txt2, arr
txt = "$$ Data_out(3,47,0,40,0,0,2,8.01)" 'input...
txt2 = Split(txt, "(")(1) 'everything after first "("
arr = Split(txt2, ",") 'split on comma
ReDim Preserve arr(0 To 2) 'first 3 elements only
Debug.Print Join(arr, ",") 'join to string
End Sub
Read some VBA tutorials to master the basics.
Here's an alternative which use the worksheet function Substitute which has an instance parameter so you can pick out the third comma.
Sub x()
Dim str As String
Dim openPos As Long, closePos As Long
Dim midBit As String
Dim r As Long
For r = 2 To Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
openPos = InStr(Cells(r, 1), "(")
str = WorksheetFunction.Substitute(Cells(r, 1), ",", "#", 3) '# or any character not likely to appear in your data
closePos = InStr(str, "#")
If openPos > 0 And Len(str) > 0 Then
midBit = Mid(str, openPos + 1, closePos - openPos - 1)
Cells(r, 1).Value = midBit
End If
Next r
End Sub
Column A in sheet1 has the values [1,2,3,4,5,6] in range("A1:A6") and what I am trying to do is to get all the combinations of summing each two numbers and each three numbers and each four numbers and each five numbers
This is what I did till now but the results are not as I expected
Sub Test()
Dim a, b, lr As Long, i As Long, j As Long, k As Long, ii As Long
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To lr
For j = i To lr
For ii = j To lr
Cells(i, ii + 1) = i & "+" & j & "+" & ii & "=" & i + j + ii
Next ii
Next j
Next i
With Range("A1").CurrentRegion
a = .Offset(, 1).Resize(, .Columns.Count - 1).Value
ReDim b(1 To UBound(a, 1) * UBound(a, 2), 1 To 1)
For i = LBound(a) To UBound(a)
For j = LBound(a, 2) To UBound(a, 2)
If a(i, j) <> "" Then
k = k + 1
b(k, 1) = a(i, j)
End If
Next j
Next i
.Cells(1, .Columns.Count + 2).Resize(k).Value = b
End With
End Sub
Example of the desired output:
Each two numbers together >>
Sub Test()
Dim a, b, lr As Long, i As Long, j As Long, k As Long, ii As Long
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To lr
For j = i To lr
Cells(i, j + 1) = i & "+" & j & "=" & i + j
Next j
Next i
With Range("A1").CurrentRegion
a = .Offset(, 1).Resize(, .Columns.Count - 1).Value
ReDim b(1 To UBound(a, 1) * UBound(a, 2), 1 To 1)
For i = LBound(a) To UBound(a)
For j = LBound(a, 2) To UBound(a, 2)
If a(i, j) <> "" Then
k = k + 1
b(k, 1) = a(i, j)
End If
Next j
Next i
.Cells(1, .Columns.Count + 2).Resize(k).Value = b
End With
End Sub
The results would be like that in column J
1+1=2
1+2=3
1+3=4
1+4=5
1+5=6
1+6=7
2+2=4
2+3=5
2+4=6
2+5=7
2+6=8
3+3=6
3+4=7
3+5=8
3+6=9
4+4=8
4+5=9
4+6=10
5+5=10
5+6=11
6+6=12
This is OK for each two numbers .. How can I get the results for each three numbers and for each four numbers and for each five numbers?

I have edited the procedure as you told me, but just one note, I can't get the same number to be summed. Example: 1+1=2
Combination (not repeating same values):
Copy the code below and run it. Then change the variable in size = n. The given numbers are in the initialArray. In the end, instead of printing the array as a textArray, add a variable to sum it:
Sub Main()
Dim size As Long: size = 2
Dim initialArray As Variant: initialArray = Array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
Dim arr As Variant: ReDim arr(size - 1)
Dim n As Long: n = UBound(arr) + 1
EmbeddedLoops 0, size, initialArray, n, arr
End Sub
Function EmbeddedLoops(index As Long, size As Long, initialArray As Variant, n As Long, arr As Variant)
Dim p As Variant
If index >= size Then
If Not AnyValueBiggerThanNext(arr) And Not AnyValueIsRepeated(arr) Then
PrintArrayOnSingleLine arr
End If
Else
For Each p In initialArray
arr(index) = p
EmbeddedLoops index + 1, size, initialArray, n, arr
Next p
End If
End Function
Public Function AnyValueBiggerThanNext(arr As Variant) As Boolean
Dim i As Long
For i = LBound(arr) To UBound(arr) - 1
If arr(i) > arr(i + 1) Then
AnyValueBiggerThanNext = True
Exit Function
End If
Next i
AnyValueBiggerThanNext = False

I am trying to apply the bold format to all words before a colon (:) in a specific cell. In the image, the words first / second / third need to be in bold, the rest not.
I found the following code on a different thread, but it applies the bold format to the first word before a colon.
Sub PreColon()
Dim i As Long, N As Long, s As String, j As Long
N = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To N
s = Cells(i, 1)
j = InStr(1, s, ":")
If j <> 0 Then
Cells(i, 1).Characters(1, j - 1).Font.Bold = True
End If
Next i
End Sub
split on the - and do a second loop:
Sub PreColon()
With ActiveSheet
Dim N As Long
N = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Dim i As Long
For i = 1 To N
Dim strLen As Long
strLen = 0
Dim sArray() As String
sArray = Split(.Cells(i, 1), "-")
Dim s As Variant
For Each s In sArray
Dim j As Long
j = InStr(s, ":")
If j > 0 Then
.Cells(i, 1).Characters(strLen + 1, j - 1).Font.Bold = True
End If
strLen = strLen + Len(s) + 1
Next s
Next i
End With
End Sub
Here is a little procedure you can use:
Sub Test()
Dim i As Long, N As Long
N = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To N
FormatPreColon Cells(i, 1)
Next
End Sub
Sub FormatPreColon(Rng As Range)
Dim i As Long, j As Long
If TypeName(Rng.Value) <> "String" Then Exit Sub
i = InStr(1, Rng, ":")
Do While i <> 0
j = InStrRev(Rng, " ", i) + 1
Rng.Characters(j, i - j).Font.Bold = True
i = InStr(i + 1, Rng, ":")
Loop
End Sub
Possible missing "-" symbol you may use this.
Dim i As Long, s As String, j As Integer, k As Integer, t As String, counter As Integer, N As Integer
N = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To N
s = Cells(i, 1)
j = 1
k = 1
Do While j > 0
j = InStr(k, s, ":")
k = j + 1
counter = 1
For m = j - 1 To 1 Step -1
t = Trim(Mid(s, m, 1))
If (t = "" Or m = 1) Then
Cells(i, 1).Characters(m, counter).Font.Bold = True
Exit For
Else
counter = counter + 1
End If
Next m
Loop

I have a list of codes in A and the image links in B and C.
What i want to do is remove the duplicates and arrange the unique links in a single column and give them a series name with incrementing no code_1 before image link 1 and code_2 before link 2 as shown in the picture.
I am trying this code to delete the duplicates but clueless about how to put the name before the link.

This custom VBA function would create the desired result of getting the SKU code. I broke it up to show how to get each position.
Function Drop_Bucks(inputText As String) As String
Dim beginSpot As Long, endSpot As Long
'Finds last /
beginSpot = InStrRev(inputText, "/", -1, vbTextCompare) + 1
'Finds jpg
endSpot = InStrRev(inputText, ".jpg", -1, vbTextCompare)
Drop_Bucks = Replace(Mid(inputText, beginSpot, endSpot - beginSpot), "-", "_")
End Function
As a followup, you could also create the sku without VBA. If you put this formula in cell c4 with a sku in d4. It should do without macro.
=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(LEFT(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(d4, "/",REPT("?", 999)), 999),"?",""), ".jpg",REPT("?", 999)), 999),"?",""),"-","_")

For i = LBound(arr) To UBound(arr)

This builds a list of all the item duplicates and all. It will then uses the function Range.RemoveDuplicates to remove duplicates of the SKU Code in combination with the URL within the range.

And do not forget to have Option Base on tot of the module where this code exists. It is necessary to work with the way you built your initial code.
Edited: I adapted the code to accept up to six columns as you suggested. Please give it a try.
But it only check the unique SKU Code and select the first occurrence. If the other occurrences appear, the will not be considered even if they have different strings on its row. The code can be adapted to work also from this point of view, but now I think is your turn to make some tests...
I am trying parse a number string and create rows accordingly. On the left of the Example Data picture is an example of the input data with the right being my desired output. I am wanting to insert a unique row of data for each digit within the brackets for each number combination.
