Automatically Sort Names In Spreadsheet
Dec 31, 2012
I have a Spreadsheet with five columns. The column headings begins in rows 3 and 4(merged), these are Reg.#, Rank, First Name, Last Name and Station respectively.
The 5 row is used as a filter row. Therefore my Data Range is from A6:E505. So far I have input some data up to row 25.
Problem: Each time I input data I have to sort manually, I need a VBA Code to paste to automatically sort by Last Name even as I continue to input data in the other rows.

I’ve got a soccer spreadsheet with the names of six national teams. Near it, the small table that present current condition of a team. Under it, I created the small table where I want them to be sorted automatically by gathered points. The spreadsheet. For example:...............
I want the name of the team, who gathered maximum points, to be shown in first row. In the second row, must be shown the team which has the second result. There must be one formula that I can copy down. So I wrote the next formula
=MATCH(LARGE(A1:A9;ROWS($A$1:A1));A1:A9;0)
Everything was perfect until I saw that if the column has the same numbers (points) it returns the first matched row number. So I did the next
IF(COUNTIF($AD$4:$AD$9,LARGE($AD$4:$AD$9,ROWS($AD$4:AD4)))>1,MATCH(LARGE($Z$4:$Z$9,B12),$Z$4:$Z$9,0) +3,MATCH(LARGE($AD$4:$AD$9,B12),$AD$4:$AD$9,0)+3)..................

I have this massive spreadsheet, with the maximum rows excel will fit on one sheet. In the interest of simplicity, this is what the raw data looks like:
Last First Amount
Jones Jim $1000
Jung Joe $700
White Jon $100
Jones Jim $200
Jones Jan $300
Jung Joe $800
White Jon $200
What I want to do is automatically get excel to group all the same names together. Then I want it to sum all the values for each name, then order by largest total value for each person, then order that by name alphabetically. In other words, the above would look like this after the sort:
Last First Amount
Jung Joe $800
Jung Joe $700
Jones Jim $1000
Jones Jim $200
Jones Jan $300
White Jon $200
White Jon $100
Or, if necessary, there could be sum total rows under each name...although I don't have spare rows, so IDK. I could delete some rows if I had to, but would rather not.

Is there a way to have this sheet which is named "sheet1" sort the names in column A which is named "Name" by the data in column B which is named "Rank" automatically as the data in column B "Rank" changes?

What I’m trying to do is create a Workbook that works within a folder that pulls data from other Workbooks within the same folder.
Example: Workbook name “RATES.XLS” would be the name of the main Workbook with all the information. I would like to be able to pull certain cells from the other Workbooks as they arrive in the folder over to the Rates Workbook.
Every day, two new Workbooks show up in the same folder with a name like “1Name9_MMDDYYYY” and “2Name1_MMDDYYYY”. So the only thing different everyday is the date added to the name of the file and ofcourse the information is different, but formated the same and in the same cells.
Once I get the information from the other sheets linked, I will need to figure out a way to capture the date on the same line and move the data down the sheet within the Rates.xls workbook.

See the attached spreadsheet. I have people's names in cells A2:A5. These names have a rank value in cells B2:B5. What I would like to do is create a formula that sorts/orders the names in cells A2:A5 according to the rank in cells B2:B5. The results I would like to achieve are shown in A8:A11. I am aware of the "Sort" function in the "Data" drop down menu, but need to leave cells A1:B5 as they are.

I'm trying to learn how to do auto sort. I Know how to do the custom manual sort but it is taking to long to do my spreadsheet every night. I love to play the greyhounds but to manually sort 18 columns a race with 15 races each night takes a while there has to be a easier way.
here a sample of what I'm trying to do. The columns are in two C-D E-F G-H I-J and so on. The rows here are 7-14 as you see I have to sort some high and some low. Is this possible to do a auto sort for each set of columns
C---- D----------E------F--------G------H--------I------J
BEST-------------AVG-------------EARLY-----------LATE
SPEED-----------SPEED------------SPEED----------SPEED
BOX--LOW-------BOX--LOW------BOX----HIGH------BOX--HIGH
1----31.3-------1----31.47----- 1-----87.55------1-------0
2----31.2-------2-----31.69------2---- 51.53------2-----(-1
3----31.85------3-----31.95------3-------0--------3-------0

I am using vb6 and I need to Sort records in spreadsheet based on items in column 7. Actually, I want to sort the spreadsheet before executing the count process below. Note: the code below works perfectly, I just need to sort the spreadsheet before counting.
Selection.Subtotal groupBy:=7, Function:=xlCount, TotalList:=Array(7), _
PageBreak:=False, SummaryBelowData:=True
In otherwords, I want to sort the records based on the 7 column before executing the above routine.

I am working on a personal macro that is lauched from a file that is produced on a weekly basis resulting in a filename that changes every week due to a date range that is in the file name (ex. Weekly Accounting 04_16_14 to 04_22_14.xlsx), for this example I will call this "Spreadsheet A". When working with this spreadsheet I open another spreadsheet ("Spreadsheet B") to retreive data and I then need to go back to Spreadsheet A again to paste this data. The problem I have is I don't know how to go back to Spreadsheet A since the name changes each week and I cannot hard code the name into the coding. I usually use Windows("Random Spreadsheet.xlsx").Activate to go between spreadsheets, but in this case I cannot.
Is there something that will allow me to return to Spreadsheet A no matter what it is named?

I am keeping a spreadsheet for an auction
We have 20 people and each person gets a total bid for 48 items.
if person1 = 55,person2 = 100,person3 = 76,person4 = 67,person5 = 49 etc.
The person's names will be in column C while values in D in cell G3 will hold the total bid for the items each week updating.
What I am trying to do is sort the table (names & values) from cell G3.
So if each week G3 total gets bigger then the table sorts to match.
If the overall total bid after 48 weeks (G3) was 52 then the table sorts with 55 on top (because it's closer) 49 next.
The closer the person's bid to the total bid the further up the table the person will be.
I have uploaded an example with before and after sample.BidExample.xlsx

I have a long list of chemical names that I need to sort alphabetically. A problem arises wherein many of the chemical names are preceded by numbers, as in 1,1,1-Trichloroethane. When Excel sorts the list, it of course groups all entries beginning with 1,1,1- together, then 1,1,2-, and so on, then alphabetically. How can I get Excel to ignore the preceding numbers, and sort only alphabetically?

I have a list of files in folders.
When I make the index of those folder, i have an excel list with in column A these numbers
1.1.1.1 (so the file 1 in the 1st subsubfolder in the 1st subfolder in the first folder)
1.1.1
1.2.1.1
1.2.2
1.3.1
etc... The list goes on with 1000s rows.
And in column B I have the names of the files
Unfortunately, when i sort the spreadsheet with the number on column A, the order is not good....
So I would like to find a solution to sort things in the good order.

my spreadsheet attached, when you open it up you will see the tabs on the bottom, each of those tabs are departments.
This spreadsheet track all the jobs coming through my department, placed by other departments.
On the right hand side of each sheet are print numbers columns, and total hour columns.
at the end of a job I record how many hours the job took or how many dollars it cost. Then the job is close out and that line of information is sent to the archive page.
The archive page is where all the information is stored, print numbers hours and dollar amounts and so forth.
what I would like to do is, set up another sheet within the workbook that would sort all of the part numbers and associate them with hours or dollar cost.
I'd like to have it start the search when a new job is entered and I put the print number into a cell, in any of the department pages.

I have attached my particular spread sheet I an referring to.
I set up a spread sheet to write out all the material I buy to go into a product I make. I work my way through a layout diagram and type all my data in to a spread sheet, one row per item I need to buy.
Now I want to order everything. Is there a way to sort the spread sheet so it brings all my like items from Column A (item) together, so I Can count the quantity required to order?
I have tried to sort, but am worried I might be messing up the rows and column - all the row information must stay together for it to work.

I currently have a navigation menu with 9 options however these options are based on Range names that I have set up.
The concern is that if someone deletes the cell that contains the range name, obviously that option in the navigation won't work, nor would you want it to.
However if someone re-enters a cell that you would want linked up with the navigation there's a lot more action involved.
What i'm looking for is a macro that can be used through a button, Idealy i'd like the macro to search through column "B" and look for key labels (ex: "Ground Floor", "1st Floor" "2nd Floor" etc.) and have each button set up for it's respective search data (ex. Ground button searches only "Ground Floor")

I just want to filter and sort the data based on names and hours.
Here it goes:
1. Filter Column F.
2. Filter it by: UK & M UK
3. After that, filter Column E in "Ascending order"
4. Count the data that are:
-starts 1:01AM - 7:59AM and display the total count in Sheet2, if there are no data in other specific time, then display a value "0"
For example for UK and M UK:
In Sheet 2, ("F5") = 3 as there are 3 data, G5=1, H5=0 and so on and so forth..

Is there a command/formula that will automatically put the progressing date in the tabs of the sheets? Like if I am doing a spreadsheet containing 52 sheets for all the weeks of the year, is their a way I can label the first tab 1-1-2013, and then excel will auto label the remaining 51 tabs when I hold the control key, click/hold cursor and drag the sheet to make another? otherwise I am going to have to manually enter around 1000 dates for the tabs.

If I have a column of data with a defined name is there an easy way to update this as data is added? Can this be done when you open the workbook and without? I'd assume an open event could do it but I'm having problems finding a simle solution.

How do I create a macro to sort rows into groups, add break rows in between & insert a product sourced from another excel workbook onto the break line?
I receive a spreadsheet each day with a series of requests, most of the information is the addresses & names etc with the important data in columns K,M & O. Data in each of these columns is a code that refers to a product and information sheet to be sent out to the person requesting it. They may want just one in which case data will only be in column K, if they want two there will also be data in M and if they require three there will be data in column O as well. The bit I do know is how to sort the important data into groups of the same by the country (column I) and the product sku's.
Whilst I can do the sort as a recorded macro I really need it to be part of a larger macro that does the following bit I can't get my head around. I need to insert a break row above each group then by cross referencing the data in the product sku columns to a separate workbook insert the appropriate item / letter combination onto the break line row, telling the volunteer which items to send out. This is a v look up?
I have attached an example of the files we work with, the first tab is with the data simply sorted and the second is what I need it to look like. I normally receive it as a CSV file, there are around 8000 possible combinations of product and instructions and the files are normally around 4000 records long. At present we insert the break lines and copy/paste the information manually, seriously slowing down the process.

I have a cashflow spread sheet on which there are three properties that are currently being renovated and are being rented out. I would like to see ongoing costs for each individual property on the main spread sheet. I can filter and sort by the properties and autosum to get the individual costings of properties, but I would like to be able to see the costings of each property on the main spread sheet once I have stopped filtering.

I am new to VB Macro creation and I am creating VB Macro which will:
1. Sort data in Columns within an active spreadsheet
2. Create new Worksheets
3. Delete Values in rows based on value in Column.
I have listed my "Step by Step" instructions in the tblTest Excel file on attachment. The instructions are clear and straight to the point.
Below are some VB Macros I was experimenting with but it is not complete.

I am now trying to write a macro which is a little over my head and was hoping some one may have some idea how to do it or have some code that is similiar and I can try to customise it myself. So here goes.
Basically all that happens is I paste data into a work book that always has two columns. The first column is a list of names and the second column is a list of numbers. I need to sort that information automaitcally every time it is pasted into the work sheet as follows.
1) Once any information is pasted to sheet 1 run macro automatically with no user interaction
2) All numbers must be rounded up or down first before sorting. If it is say 2.4 then it would become 2 and it it was 2.6 it would become 3.
3) Then move the numbers only from a specified column from sheet1 to sheet 2 and split them up into seperate columns based on the following results.
a) 0 - 3 gets moved to column B
b) 4 -7 get moved to column C
c) 8 - 10 gets moved to column d
4) Delete both columns from sheet1 after this is run so the user can re paste new information
5) If a user does this again then do the same but move into a new set of columns e f g and so on until the work book ends.

Here is what I want to accomplish:
I have a spreadsheet with data in cells A36 to G52. In The D column (D36 to D52) I have a date in there. I would like to have this column sort in ascending order automatically, but also have it sort the other data within the same row with it.
I have tried a couple of VBScripts that I have found in other posts that are similar, but I just get errors when trying it so I assume that I am not putting something in correctly.
Can anyone help me write this functionality? I have other data in a similar setup on the page that I also want to sort automatically but the script for this first part should be just a copy and paste, and change a couple of values....at least I am assuming so.

I am trying to get a list to sort automatically. I am running a competition over an 11 week period and entering weekly data that is totalled on a separate "Totals" sheet.
This "Totals" sheet, in turn, feeds a "Scores" sheet which I want to automatically sort in descending order of score in order to show the current positions in the competition.
The data in the list isn't entered directly but comes from formulas that reference cells in other workbooks.
I have found ways of sorting a list when you enter data into the list itself but what I need is a macro that will update the sort order automatically whenever a new value is entered in one of the other workbooks.
