Custom Sorting With Sub Headings
Aug 6, 2014I've got a few worksheets that have staff names on Col A. And these names are under sub headings of what position they work in (Foremen, Operatives etc..).
Before I had access to them, the names were not in order, now I've change it to A-Z, for each staff under their position.
I know you can make your own custom order list, so the list goes top to bottom : Supervisor, Formen, Operative, Office.
What I sometimes need to do is sort Col B or C. But is am unable to sort it back to it's original state
Attached is an example of how I would like my spreadsheets to look. But is there a way to use Sort & Filter so it sorts the entire table by position, keeping the correct name under the correct position heading.

Custom Sorting Of Multiple Columns?
Jun 20, 2013In Column A there are randomly assigned numbers using the RANDBETWEEN function.
In Column B there are three possible values X, Y, and Z.
I want to create a sort order where "X" is always at the top but then the rest of the rows are randomly sorted by column A (Y and Z values are intermixed).
Currently I tried to use a Custom List and the value is "X" to sort first, and then a seconday sort of Column A. The problem is that column B is always sorted by X then Y then Z where I am trying to get the Y and Z values to be randomly intermixed based on the sort of the random numbers in Column A.
I know I can manually do 2 seperate sorts each time, but I would like to save a sort list to the file so I recreate that sort over and over again.
Custom Button With 2 Sorting Functions
Mar 21, 2007I am trying to create a custom button in Excel that will sort on two different columns. One column has $ Sales and the other has Unit Sales. So you can click on the button and it will sort by $ Sales and if you click the same button again it would sort by the unit sales. I'd also like the text on the button to reflect what option the data would be currently sorted by. I am able to do one of these macros and assign it to the button, but can't figure out how to get both sort options assigned to the same button. I have had outside people send spreadsheets to me with this but can't figure out how they did it.

Jun 20, 2013I want to sort all of the "column2" by alphabetical order. The order will be first by state and then by city. For example the first box the column2 order should be (Fountain Hills, AZ) properties first followed by (Mesa, AZ) properties second followed by (Peoria, AZ) etc.... ending with (Flower Mound, TX) last.
The issue that I'm having is that when I create a custom sort the comma after the city indicates a new value being AZ. For example my custom sorting looks like this: Fountain Hills, AZ, Mesa, AZ, Peoria, AZ. This is limiting my ability to sort the files as is with city, state. I solved this issue by removing the commas after all the cities. This worked but was time consuming. Is there a faster way? The workbook is below.

CUSTOM SORTING Will Not Work On Table With INDEX Formulas
Jan 28, 2014Problem we are having with sorting a table.
The table (A1:E10) was created by pulling data from another worksheet using INDEX and ARRAY formulas.
We inserted 6 columns to move the table over to G1:K10 (used column F to space the two tables).
We then duplicated the table: cell A1=G1, B1=H1, ...., E1=K1 and dragged the formulas down. We now have a duplicate table that we want to sort.
We choose CUSTOM SORT and choose 2 levels of sorting ... column A and column C.
PROBLEM: The ARRAY formulation evidently overrides the sort function because the table remains as it was when the sorting command is executed.
Is there a way to bring the data from table G1:K10 over to table A1:E10 in a manner that will allow sorting??
Creating Custom Data Bar Format
Feb 11, 2014I'm looking at what appears to be a custom chart. It is a box divided into 4 equal quadrants. In each quadrant is a percentage with the total equaling 100%. In each of the quadrants there is fill equal to the percent that is numerically written in that quadrant. I'll post a picture with this, but if I was talking cells then....
A1 = 15% B1 = 66%
A2 = 4% B2 = 15%
The backround image behind the number is filled up by volume equal to the percentage indicated. They are also color coded with red representing the highest percentage quadrant filled.
To top that, there are little arrows along the sides of each quadrant indicating an average score.
My first question is WHAT TYPE OF CHART IS THIS THING!, and second can this be done in excel?
Creating A Custom Format For One Cell?
Apr 14, 2013I want to create a custom format for a cell for entering in "cup measurements". I want to be able to type in 5, 1/4, 1/16, etc. and have the word "cups" appear after the number in that cell. I formatted the cell to say the word cups after typing in the numbers in my cell using the code "cups".
ex: 0 "cups" works fine for whole number
so then if i change it to 0/0 "cups" is works great for only 1/8 but not 1/16 or whole numbers. Then I looked at other custom codes that already existed in my formatts so I attempted to try this code which I just kinda came up with
_(0/00);_(0);_(0/0); "cups"
well it isn't doing what I want and If I use the 0/00 "cups code and I type in 4 cups the cell then says 4/01 cups.
What does my code need to be for me to show whole numbers and and size fraction without having it look weird?
Creating Custom Dropdown In Toolbar
Jun 6, 2007I work with excel docs that have alot of sheets. I managed to create a vba form that has a listbox populated with the sheet names, that when clicked goes to the respective sheet. The problem is that when the form is open i cannot focus on the excel sheet - the form needs to be closed first.
1 ) Is it possible to make an excel vba form dockable (so it could be displayed on the right where help would be)
Or
2) Would it be possible to create a drop down in the toolbar that would have the sheet names.
I think the latter is a cleaner solution (if possible).
Creating New Workbook Then Giving It A Custom Filename?
May 25, 2012I am building a macro and am just not figuring out how to do this. I am trying to create a new workbook, then give it a name. Simple right? Well, I have the format for the file name to be "mm-dd-yy Transmittal #.xlsx" but I can't figure out how to make the # part of that equation start as 1 but if the file already exists change it to 2, if that exists, change it to 3, and so on. Here's what I have so far:
Code:
Sub Transmittal()
Dim NewBook As Workbook
Dim MyPath As String
[Code]....
I don't think I'm allowed to do "x + 1" so that is probably where my problem is coming from.

Sep 30, 2013I need a way to make a customized legend for a scatter plot, is there any way to do that through VBA? I have a scatter plot with some points highlighted green, and some points grey depending on the user selection and need to be able to create a legend based on what the user selects (e.g. Green - Category B, Grey - Category A, etc.).
For some reason I can't get Excel to rename points on the scatter, so I feel like there is only one option: create custom images and align them correctly with labels on the plot.

Creating Custom Pivot Table Report Filter
Aug 8, 2012I was wondering if it is possible to create a custom pivot table report filter? I would like to take an existing pivot table report filter and manually add values into it. I would like to do this because I have multiple pivot tables, some with the same values and some with different values and I have a VBA code from Contextures that applies a mass filter to all fields with the same name. So if i could manually add values into one report filter, I could filter from one location and have all my pivot tables update at the same time if they contain the value that i would like to filter by.

Jul 31, 2012I have an excel file as attached. I have two departments Digital and Industrial. Under this I have done a drop down option for different quarter for different projects.
When I open my excel file I just want to see the Quarter column under Digital but when I double click on Digital all other columns appear.
Second this is it possible to create a master filter or sorting for Quarter above the table so that if I select Q1 in it it will displays all the project and corresponding values in both Digital and Industrial.

How To Make A Custom Conversion Program / Formula Between Custom Data
Feb 15, 2014I'm trying to make a converter between about 8 various types of values. These are not units like Km or miles or something like that, but rather numbers that represent a specific "hardness value" on a variety of scales (to name a few: HRC, HRA, K)
What I've been doing so far is plotting the two types against eachother and then getting the best trendline I can so that I can use that formula to convert between the two with relative certainty. (for example, when plotting HV vs HRC my fourth order polynomial trendline with an Rsquared of 1 is y=0.0001x4 - 0.0188x3 + 1.0768x2 - 20.709x + 350.69)
My questions comes up where I was hoping to make a window or box of some sort allowing the user to input a numeric value, then selecting the Input units and the hopeful output calculated units, and have the box spit back to the user the conversion.
Custom Transferable Toolbar Of Custom Functions
Sep 2, 2008I want to be able to create a range of VBA userforms to quickly perform long tedious tasks. I want these userforms to be accessed from a nice tidy toolbar.
I have done this and it looks nice and works well. What I would like to be able to do is have my custom toolbar of userform controlled functions be transferable so that if someone else wants my toolbar and attached functions they can install it easily much the same way you can do with an add in.
Is this sort of thing possible or does it require them to manually install all my userforms, modules and toolbar? If it is possible what sort of things should I be looking at?

However as soon as I put this in the workbook where I want this to work it does not show the menu.

I thought at first it was protection but that is now removed but still no joy.
I can not see any setting that controls these sub menus.
