问题
I need to be able to convert cells from one format to another according to the following rules:
Property Description --enter as-- Folio Identifier
----------------------------------------------------------
Lot 23 DP789678 23/789678
Lot 7 Section 12 DP6789 7/12/6789
Lot 1 SP 45676 1/SP45676
Common Property Title SP45676 CP/SP45676
Volume 7456 Folio 56 7456-56
Auto-Consol 5674-78 5674-78
Water Access Licence No. 123 WAL123
So the thing on the left has to be changed to the item on the right. For example, if I have any cells that look like Lot 23 DP789678, they must be converted to Lot 23 DP789678. How do I write a formula that will do this for all the above cases?
回答1:
I've got a formula for you. The only problem is that I couldn't fit it into one cell. It is just too big and Excel complains about it. So it has to be done in 2 steps. A1 contains your original text. D1 will contain intermediate result (you can hide this column if you want) E1 will contain the final result.
Formula for D1:
=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1, "Lot ", ""), "Section ", ""), "SP ", "SP"), "Common Property Title", "CP"), "Volume ", ""), "Auto-Consol ", ""), "Water Access Licence No. ", "WAL"), " Folio ","-")
Formula for E1:
=SUBSTITUTE(D1, " ", "/")

You can use the MATCH and INDEX functions. Suppose Property Description and Folio Identifier are in columns A1:A7 and B1:B7 respectively, and the string you want to replace is in A12, then let B12 be:
=INDEX(B1:B7,MATCH(A12,A1:A7,0))
E.g.
A B
1 Lot 23 DP789678 23/789678
2 Lot 7 Section 12 DP6789 07/12/89
3 Lot 1 SP 45676 1/SP45676
4 Common Property Title SP45676 CP/SP45676
5 Volume 7456 Folio 56 7456-56
