Bulk Sorting
Nov 27, 2009I have columns with sort filters, columns with tables, unformatted cells and frozen panes. When sorting one column how do I make all other columns sort simultaneously with it?

Explanation:
I run a workbook with worksheets in calendar months (12)
These consist of names in alphabetical order.
If a new name is added to or deleted from all the sheets (I've cracked how to do this) how can I data sort them without doing it sheet by sheet?
I am attaching a sample excel workbook for reference. I have a set of coded data in numbers in ColumnA, and want to replace them with actual names which are in Column G.
As explained before, I set up columns such that all template number codes are in Column F and names in Column G. The actual raw data in Column A.
However the macro is giving me wrong replacements i.e. if the coded number was 21, its replacement is name2name1 not name 21, I hope you understand what I am saying.
It will save me bucket loads of time as I have a multiple similar columns. I am a novice in macros so I am not sure how to find full numbers (21) and replace with the specific name.
Sub FindReplace()
Dim Frange As Range
Dim Fr As Range
Set Frange = Range("F1", Range("F65536").End(xlUp))
For Each Fr In Frange
Columns("A:A").Replace What:=Fr, Replacement:=Fr.Offset(0, 1), LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
Next Fr
End Sub
i have read through all threads about permutation, and also a few others. I if I were an Excel Pro I would probably have been able to come up with a solution to my problem based on all the suggestions made, but unfortunately it is (still) all a bit too complex for me.
The problem:
I have between 2 and 5 lists of words, each list in one column:
Column A
red
green
yellow
black
blue green
pink
Column B
shirt
jumper
blouse
coat
t-shirt
skirt
Column C
for women
for men
for girls
extra large
for boys
one size fits all
Column D
I have folder with 427 workbooks in, named TAB001.... TAB427.
These workbooks contain listed tables out of a bespoke apllication. Each workbook only holds one worksheet (which is named TAB001, etc corrsespoonding to the workbook name).
Each worksheet holds in cell A1 the name of the table
I want to rename each workbook to whatever is in cell A1. SO TAB001.xls becomes, say, Property.xls, and so on for all 427 workbooks.
I envisage a new workbook holdinga macro to do this?
I'm using this code to import bulk *.csv files
Sub ImportCSVFiles()
Dim sh As Worksheet, sPath As String, sName As String
Dim R As Range, fName As String
Dim sh1 As Worksheet
But I've noticed that on import run, the macro mixing the ascending order of the files.
An example:
Inside my_folder I have 3 csv files:
advertise.csv
adwords.csv
adwords keyword tool.csv
When the macro runs, it takes advertise.csv as the 1st. (Thats Ok) then adwords keyword tool.csv data
before thaking adwords.csv
(I have over 100 files to import, so you can imagine the mess I'm facing..)
I have a sheet which is a basically my template, it has a bunch of formulas etc on it
I need to create about 200 copies of this exact sheet and its formatting etc, is there anyway you can bulk copy a worksheet or does this need to be done individually?
How do I copy 100 email addresses at the top of an email and post them in an Excell spreadsheet where each email address is in one cell i.e. 100 cells?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to compare deductions from two different pay periods. I have the Data from check 1 & check 2 on different worksheets, in no order, and would like the data to auto populate on a third worksheet into a side-by-side comparison of the data. The problem comes when there is a deduction missed or a new deduction that only shows up on one of the two checks. I am having to manually insert lines to make my side-by-side comparison match. Is there a macro or something that can pull the data from these two soures and display them in a side-by-side comparison even if there is no match?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to change a range of cells from lower case text to all upper case text.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhat I would like to do is take all of the subcategory headings and name the cells they are in to reflect them.
e.g.
E2 has text "Diodes, Low Frequency"
I would like to rename the cell so
Diodes_Low_Frequency has text "Diodes, Low Frequency"
The code I'm using is as follows:
Code:
Dim rng As Range
For Each rng In Range(E2, AD2)
'Title of subcategory
[Code]....
For this code I'm getting the error "Method Range of object _Global failed"
If I change the code to the specific Sheet4.Range(E2.AD2) I get the error "Method Range of object _worksheet failed"
The actual code to alter the test string works fine, its the selecting the range and writing the cell names that I'm having trouble with.
Say I have this data in worksheet
A
B
C
D
E
14/1/2012
1
2
3
4
15/1/2012
5
6
7
8
And this in worksheet 2
=A2
=B2
=C2
=D2
=E2
=A2
=C2
=D2
=E2
=B2
=A2
=D2
=E2
=B2
=C2
Now what I want to be able to do is when I add a new row to worksheet 1, in this case row 3, then the references in worksheet 2 either to automatically (or manually do it in one simple go) increase by one and now refer to the new row. So the references now become =A3, =B3, =C3 etc.

I have a series of files in *.ew7 format (i know its a random program)
I have some code which i can run which will simply open the relevant file and save it as xls.
The files are saved in multiple folders in format "yymm" eg: 0910 - oct 09.
inside each folder there is a ew7 file for each day in rthe format: "01ddmmyy" eg 01271009 = 27th oct 2009.
I have folders going back as far as may 2002 (in folder 0205) and i need a way to convert these all into xls format and save them in the same location.
how to create the database and the resulting Pivot Table. My Sales Database includes the Sales $ and GP$ for each line. In the Pivot Table I've managed to create a calculated field for GP %, no problem.
i have also managed to figure out how to express each Row as a % of the Pivot Total, also very easy.
What I need to know is how can I sort my Pivot Table High to Low using these calculated fields?
I don't understand all of it, but I observed that it works only with mp3 with tag id v1, not v2, anyway I also see another code for tag id v2 given by NateO.
But before entering in detail of what I want, is it possible to edit tag id v1 or even v2, with VBA? Because I want to complete my mp3 informations that are missing, or modify the wrong one, in excel, and then with a macro update my mp3 files...
I've found this code on the forum to get my mp3 informations :
Option Explicit
Public Type mp3Info
Header As String * 3
Title As String * 30
Artist As String * 30
Album As String * 30
Year As String * 4
Comment As String * 30
Genre As Byte
End Type
Sub Getmp3Info()
Dim mp3ID As mp3Info
Dim lngRow As Long, lngFile As Long
Dim lngFileCnt As Long
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.Filename = "*.MP3"
.LookIn = "H:Daniel" 'Change this to the folder you wish to search
.SearchSubFolders = True........................
I have a sheet with fixed number of rows but variable number of columns. I have to sort this sheet on the basis of column A starting A2. i am using the following code
Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlToRight).End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("A2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes
But it does not sort properly. To illustrate, i have 10 rows, some 4 columns wide and some 5 columns wide. Since the first row is 5 columns wide , all the rows with 5 columns populated get sorted but the rest get left out.
This is an example of what is being worked on:
(There are 500+ more lines like the ones below, in groups of approximately 17 lines per page of information.)
* C.B.A. Bank - 2nd reference to branch near Mike's store. (21/03/1956)
* Berwick exams results. (06/06/1877)
* Berwick exams (09/05/1877)
* Steps taken for erection of Berwick. (11/07/1874)
* Berwick tenders for work at home. (11/07/1877)
* W. was a storekeeper at Berwick. (25/07/1881)
* Berwick Brass. (27/06/1877)
* Commercial erected for son. (27/06/1878)
I need to do the folowing to it:
(not necessarily in the following order)
- Insert into Excel
- Remove brackets
- Sort chronologically
- Copy back into program I am using again, in same chronological order.
The desired outcome is to be able to throw into Excel all the lines and press a button, (possibly the Sort Ascending one) and have a chronological list of all entries.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there a code or some way for me to sort 4 columns together? I want to sort a list of employees and for each employee theres a column with their Lost Business, customer satisfaction, and two more columns. I want to sort all the columns at the same time so that the best employees overall will go to the top of the list and the worst ones will be at the bottom. Whenever I use the sorting feature it does each column independant of the others so everytime I sort a new column it just moves around the last one I sorted.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have five columns of data A to E. In each row there can be data in either 2 3,4 or 5 of the columns. What I want to do is essentially condense the data. So in columns, say, G,H,I J,K if there is data in column A then It goes into column g, if not it asks if there is any data in column b and so on. Then for H it does the same but one on. I have attached an example to show what I would like to happen.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI created a data base that had a hyperlink to a plan of the store so we can find parts easy. With a lot of help for people here on this web site, it works very well.
My only problem now is that I sorted my Database by the hyperlink column. It made it easy to do one hyperlink and pull the fill handle down for the rest of the same hyperlink reference.
When I went to resort the database so that the parts were in alphabetical order. The sort worked well except that the hyperlink for lets say cell F87 was not sorted. Example : - F87 hyper link presort had the reference to Rack 10 self B. Post sort it had the reference to Rack 16 shelf C. But when clicked on it still took you to Rack 10 self B.

I have around 1900 dates that I need to sort into order but I need the data to be displayed as DD/MM in chronological order eg 01/01, 02/01 etc.
At the moment the dates are DD/MM/YYYY in one column. Have tried sorting them into date order but have found that they're sorted by YYYY. Is there a way of sorting them DD/MM instead?????
I should sort numbers in ascending order from left to right, but the numbers sort only from right to left.
This is what I want:
1.3.2.2
1.4.1
2.1.1.1.1
3.2.3.12
3.3.1
And this is how it goes:
2.1.1.1.1
3.3.1
1.4.1
1.3.2.2
3.2.3.12
There are also numbers that have letter at the end (1.2.3a), and the cell format is text.
I have an array of data that I need sorted. I did a Custom Sort. However, the data did not all sort properly (some of it did). Any ideas as to why this happened and how I can get it to sort correctly?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIm not entirely sure about this but it seems like if I have data in columns A - Z and sort in one of them, the data in Columns AA - AZ does not move accordingly rather it stays fixed.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a column showing date DD/MM/YYYY. I want to be able to get a new column stripping out the days so that I can chart changes over a month rather than each day of the last 2 years. I have tried altering the cell format to MM-YYY although this shows the format I want when i run a pivot chart it will still create records for individual days. I then tried copying and pasting the above as text only. This results in the pivot chart sorting A-Z rather than by date.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have information in columns A (First name),B (Last name), C (Misc), D (misc). Is there a way that someone can enter in new information at the bottom of the list and it will automatically sort by the last name once saved or closed ect.. ? I have people not very familiar with Excel and the keep messing up inserting rows and I don't want them to sort. If they could just enter information at the bottom and save it, then when someone opens it to just view it, it will be in order.
