i have a table with 4 columns: (customer name, revenue, expenses, profit)
in cell A1, i can select from either of the above headings and what i wanted to do is sort the mentioned table based on the heading that's selected in A1.
for example, if i select Customer name in A1, then the table in (B2:E12) is going to be sorted by customer names (alphabetical)....or if i select Revenue in A1, then the table will be sorted by revenue values...etc.
Is it possible to have dynamic sorting in a table?
What I am after is a scoreboard type effect where as results are entered, the teams are sorted automatically, rather than entering all of the details and then doing a sort afterwards.
I have attached a table where I would like the sorting of columns B - E done in the following order (All decreasing order):
Comp Points first
then by Sets %
then by Points %
I am drawing this info from another table. Will this have an effect on if it can be sorted dynamically? Hoping that as i enter a result in the other table, it will bring across the current comp points, set % and points %, and then sort the table into the rankings all at once.
I am trying to doctor a recorded sort macro to adapt to a changing range.
With the code below I get:
RunTime error 1004
Application-DEfined or Object-Defined error
I have tried with no luck:
Key:=dat
.SetRange dat
Key:=Range("A1").Resize(rw, clm)
.SetRange Range("A1").Resize(rw, clm)
Key:=Range("dat")
.SetRange Range("dat")
Key:=Range(dat)
.SetRange Range(dat)
[code]....
Here is my code.
Currently I get a 1004 error. "Method of Range of Object _Global Failed" on "Range(Selection).Sort.SortFields.Clear"
Code:
Sub sortBacklog()
Dim appExcel As Excel.Application
Dim myWorkbook As Excel.Workbook

I am attempting with a simple spreadsheet he can use on the golf course on a Treo (so no macros I believe can be used). I am want him to be able put the order next to a list of people's names (the same 8 play) and then a dynamic sort will take place listing who goes first. Everything works great except it one or more people do not play then the sort lists them as "N/A". Instead of "N/A" I want it to show up as a blank.
View 2 Replies View Relatedhave data in the attached file arranged as follows:
"Source Data" sheet Data in columns A to L will be updated daily by pasting from another workbook. On any given day the data in columns A to L may have more or fewer rows than the day before.
"Lookup Table" sheet The aim is to return the data from the "Source Data" sheet; the selection depends on the Data Validation choice in cell O1.
I would like to be able to sort this dynamic list of data - ideally by clicking a single button - in descending order of the values in column L.
In the attached workbook I have hard-pasted data in columns A:M that's designated as an Excel Table to make it dynamic.
In the adjacent columns O:AA I have formulae to extract data from A:M based on the "Frequency" stipulated in cell AD1,
I would like to be able easily to sort the data in the variable sized range in columns O to AA in descending order of the calculated values in column Z.
Best way to do this so that the formula don't get jumbled up or the blank cells in column Z end up at the top of the sorted data?
I currently have two tables in one worksheet showing the sales of different region.
The problem is, when I sort the data (I can't used the named ranges as it should exclude the first row which is the header), is there a way I can make it dynamic too??

I regularly get a sheet that contains about 20 columns. I need to delete about 14 of them, and re-order the columns to a fixed order.
The columns always have the same headers, but are ofter in different positions (so I cannot hardcode the column location).
I have tried using the following, but fail on trying to use the result of the find in the selection afterwards.
I also do not know how to loop this through a list of column names (as I said, the input always has the same column names, and I always have to delete the same columns, and sort the remaining).
Sub Sort_My_Columns()
Cells.Find(What:="name1", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
myRow = ActiveCell.Row
MyCol = ActiveCell.Column
Columns("myRow:myRow").Select
Selection.Cut
Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
I have a range which will change in size & in content, & I want this to be a Named Range at whatever size it is.
Reason I want to is because I want to make a Validation List with this dynamic range. I also want a Validation list which lists the content of 2 or more dynamic ranges which may or may not be on the same worksheet - is this possible?
i.e.
First dynamic range: called "Milestones" at A11
Second dynamic range: called "Activities" at A25
& make a Validation list that will list content of both
I would like to replace the blue bit of this Dynamic Named Range (DNR) with an INDIRECT formula in order to modify the starting point for the DNR: =OFFSET(DATA!$C$60,0,0,20,1). Unfortunately, I can’t seem to get my INDIRECT formula to work in order to use it to replace the blue bit above: INDIRECT("'"DATA"'!&ADDRESS(MATCH('SHEET1'!AC8,DATA_Date,0)+22,3)"). The orange bit of the formula above returns a value of 60, therefore the ADDRESS formula should return $C$60, that can then feed into the INDIRECT and act as the equivalent of DATA!$C$60. But it doesn’t.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a question on the above but can't seem to find a solution. There are two ways that I can find for dealing with dynamic lists via data validation:-
1) Offset and match, cavet being the data must be sorted a-z
2) Have lists for each potential selection
Is there any way to get around 1 without having to do 2? E.g. Got two columns of data, unsorted, and a list from which the user can choose from. The user chooses from the list in first cell, in the second cell require the dynamic list to return all the values accordingly?
I have a dynamic table which is linked to a couple of charts. The table must remain dynamic.
I needed to add two new columns to the table, "Focus Area" and "Category". I need a drop down list in the "Category" column to be dependent on the item selected from a drop down menu in "Focus Area".
I can get the first row of the dynamic table to do this.... however; subsequent rows all lock the drop down list in the "Category" column to the same choices regardless of what is chosen in the "Focus Area" list.
Is there a way to make dynamic drop downs within a dynamic table?
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

Header As String * 3
Title As String * 30
Artist As String * 30

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.)

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 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.

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.
