    Split Upper / Lower case + concatenate rows

    I'm looking for a solution for several issues I have with a copied data set.

    samset.jpg

    The data set is as per column A and B in above screenshot.
    The problem in column A is that it contains the unique ID number but also shows blanks. It's not containing always the same number of blanks until the next ID number.
    (I have approx 4000 ID's in the dataset).

    The problem in Column B is that it contains both upper case and lower case characters. I have found on this forum several ways how to extract those, but my problem is that I need to concatenate all lower cases together. In the end I need 2 seperate columns:
    Column D may contain only the upper case characters from column B and has to concatenate those from multiple cells in the column within the ID range (column A).
    Column E is simular, but here I should concatenate all lower case characters from multiple cells in column B, within the ID range (column A).

    Who would be able to help me with this?

    Thanks !!!

    Code:
    Sub M_snb()
        ReDim sp(1 To Cells(1).CurrentRegion.Columns(1).SpecialCells(4).Areas.Count, 1 To 2)
        y = 1
        
        For Each ar In Cells(1).CurrentRegion.Columns(1).SpecialCells(4).Areas
            c00 = Join(Application.Transpose(ar.Offset(-1, 1).Resize(ar.Rows.Count + 1)))
            For j = 1 To Len(c00)
               If Mid(c00, j, 1) Like "[a-z]" Then
                    sp(y, 1) = Left(c00, j - 1)
                    sp(y, 2) = Mid(c00, j)
                    y = y + 1
                    Exit For
                End If
            Next
        Next
        
        Cells(20, 4).Resize(UBound(sp), UBound(sp, 2)) = sp
    End Sub

    thanks for the effort, but in my real data set I also have ID's without blank cells below and this code isn't picking those up.

    super, this looks what I want to see.
    I'm new with this, and run into following issue:
    I copied my real dataset into column A and B and also added an extra number on the bottom.
    Then I change this part of the formula (2 parts) to the last cell number in my dataset. but then I get following error message:

    "You cannot change part of an array"

    how can I solve this?

    The arrays are only 2 cells wide. You select the two cells, adjust the formula, then ctrl+shift+Enter to enter the formula into both cells. Then you can copy the pair of cells down.

    thanks p45cal

    @snb, my appologies, I thought it didn't make a difference.
    apperently seen the other solution, it doesn't.

    It does; but you can only take it into account if the information doesn't lack.

    Code:
    Sub M_snb()
        ReDim sp(1 To Cells(1).CurrentRegion.Columns(1).SpecialCells(2).Count, 1 To 2)
        y = 1
        
        For Each cl In Cells(1).CurrentRegion.Columns(1).Offset(1).SpecialCells(2)
            c00 = cl.Offset(, 1)
            If cl.Offset(1) = "" Then c00 = Join(Application.Transpose(cl.Offset(, 1).Resize(cl.Resize(UBound(sp)).SpecialCells(4).Areas(1).Cells.Count + 1)))
            
            For j = 1 To Len(c00)
               If Mid(c00, j, 1) Like "[a-z]" Then
                    sp(y, 1) = Left(c00, j - 1)
                    sp(y, 2) = Mid(c00, j)
                    y = y + 1
                    Exit For
                End If
            Next
        Next
        
        Cells(20, 4).Resize(UBound(sp), UBound(sp, 2)) = sp
    End Sub
