In this tutorial, I will show you how to use Jet GPT to clean up an Excel address list. The address list may have missing fields, white spaces, wrong email addresses, and inconsistent phone number formats. We will use a Visual Basic macro to automate the cleaning process.
First, we will clean up the salutation fields in column A. If any fields are missing, we will fill them in with the appropriate terms in German, which will be placed in columns B and C. Any white spaces at the beginning or end of the fields will be removed.
Next, we will address the wrong email addresses in column I. These addresses will be marked with the color red. Additionally, any duplicate email addresses will be marked in yellow.
Furthermore, we will format the phone numbers in column J. All phone numbers will have a leading ‘+49’ and any other characters will be removed.
To accomplish this, we will use a standard text editor to write the Visual Basic macro. Once the macro is written, we will execute it in Excel to apply the cleaning operations.
Using Jet GPT to generate the Visual Basic macro saves time and improves productivity, especially when working with Excel documents that have a consistent structure.
