    How to one text be converted to another

    Dear all,

    Specific software in my company generate specific information in table (table is huge a1:25000 and from A to BT) what I need to do is that certain text in that huge table is having different symbols or codes- but meaning is same) for example: "Advanced training" is under different codes like ST-PIMTL, RT-QQWE and TY-LPONT - but as I said it is a same for me and company. What i would like to achieve is to cut numbers of code in simple training names.
    I would like to all above code be recognized as unique code (which I will choose-like TR001) so instead of having 7 codes for one training to have 1.

    I hope somehow i did explain you what i want.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks and I'm glad that I'll be more involved i process of learning with you.

    Unfortunately I'm not able to share document with someone out of company.

    As I tried to explain some training's even if they are same one have different codes.... Once I generate training list in
    excel, when I want to countif number of conducted training's I have to go and check those codes manually and correct them before I do counting. If I succeed to some of those codes automatically convert in one code it will save time and cut table list.
