find words in a row and format

[codedreamer]

Good Morning,

I have a single row with data that contains fruits and weather they are fresh or canned. I would like to find all the occurences that start with letters ap and then format in columns.
For example:
apple fresh
appricot canned
I can find the words, but do not know how to get it in columns.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.

Can you post a sample file?

This is an example of how it looks and how I would like it to be formatted.
Thank you,

Give this macro a try...


Sub RearrangeFruits()
Dim X As Long, LastColumn As Long, Arr As Variant
Const StartCell As String = "K1"
Const StartOutputCell As String = "A4"
LastColumn = Cells(Range(StartCell).Row, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
Arr = Range(StartCell, Cells(Range(StartCell).Row, LastColumn))
Range(StartOutputCell).Resize(, 2).Value = Array("Fruit", "Quantity")
For X = 1 To UBound(Arr, 2) Step 5
With Range(StartOutputCell)
.Offset(Int(1 + (X - 1) / 5), 0) = Arr(1, X + 1)
.Offset(Int(1 + (X - 1) / 5), 1) = Arr(1, X + 3)
.Offset(Int(1 + (X - 1) / 5), 2) = Arr(1, X + 4)
End With
Next
End Sub


NOTE: You will need to adjust the two constants (the Const statements) to reflect your actual start of data (I used K1 and A4 because that is where you showed them to be in your sample file).

Thank you so much. It did work!
I would like to know if you can explain this line to me?
LastColumn = Cells(Range(StartCell).Row, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
Thanks again,

I went through it several times, I understand now.
Thanks again,
