Need to sort part of an Excel worksheet across multiple columns.
For example data is:
ABCDEF1
Machine
4394264394294394434399834399842
Model
TD860TD400TD860TD620TD6203
Pgm
OPTABCOPTEP2EP24
Start
5/31/119/1/115/1/096/15/092/1/085
End
2/28/158/31/125/31/114/30/108/31/09
I need to sort it first by Pgm, within Pgm by Model, and within Model by Machine. I do not need to sort on Start or End
The results should look like:
ABCDEF1
Machine
4394294399834399844394264394432
Model
TD400TD620TD700TD860TD8603
Pgm
ABCEP2EP2OPTOPT4
Start
9/1/116/15/092/1/085/31/115/1/095
End
8/31/124/30/108/31/092/28/155/31/11
After selecting the data to be sorted (columns B,C,D,E,F), I tried using "Sort Left to Right" under DATA-SORT-OPTIONS but it doesn't seem to work.
I have a pivot table with multiple row fields and multiple column fields. One of the column fields is a Date and I need some VBA that will auto-sort the columns into ascending order by the Date column field.
E.g., if the first four column labels are "2-Jun-2010, 13-May-2009, 16-May-2013, 17-May-2012" then i want the sort to arrange them as "13-May-2009, 2-Jun-2010, 17-May-2012, 16-May-2013".
Note: This is the left to right order of the columns i'm talking about, not the top to bottom order of the rows, or the data in the rows but specifically the column labels.
I've tried googling a solution and I can find a variety of code that deals with sorting the data in the rows in all sorts of ways, but nothing on how to order the columns.
i'm using excel 07, and the source data for the pivot table has the Date field formatted as custom "dd-mmm-yyyy". This can be changed if necessary.
I'm selecting only some rows in a Table trying to sort only these rows (e.g. rows 11 thru 75 in a 200 row table), but when I hit Sort Excel always overrides my selection by selecting all the rows in the table instead. The same thing happens in VBA. I'm using Excel 2007.
I have a spreadsheet with nested subtotals. i need to sort it based on one of the nested subtotals, but maintain the rows that comprise the subtotals, together with the subtotal.
is there a way to do this? I don't want a macro because then the whole project will be done as a macro. this is just a small part of what i am doing.
sample included. my goal is to sort by column F (ABS value) high to low so that rows 8-13 are together and maintain the subtotal and on top, then rows 34-36 are together and maintain the subtotal and are next, etc.
I have some data in a Excel 2007 workbook in the range a1:d100 and I want to sort the data according to "A" column, which is the first column of the range and when I am giving data sort it is prompting to select the column, where as in 2003 it will prompt to select the column but by default it will take the first column of the range, so if we want the first column the we can hit enter key otherwise need to change the column name which will save time.
My question is that whether there is any setting I can make at the time of sorting data and by default it will take the first column of the range.
I have created a pivot table using a family name in row labels. The names appear in alphabetical order unless the person's name is the same as a month or day of the week. The result is that I have Mr Sun and Mr May at the top of my list, rather than listed alphabetically. Sorting the list does not solve the problem. It switches Mr Sun and Mr May, but does not included them in the main list. Is there a setting I can use that will stop Excel 2007 thinking that these words are something that they are not?
Using Excel 2007, I have a very simple spreadsheet made up of only two worksheets that I am using to track the songs played by a band during a current tour.
One worksheet is called "Summary" and the other is called "Setlists". In the Setlists worksheet I list every show played (10 shows so far), and every song played from each show. In the Summary worksheet I have very song listed that has been played during the tour in one column (A), then the number of times that song has been played in another column (B). Column B, the number of times each song has been played, is populated by a COUNTIF function that looks at the Setlists worksheet and counts each instance of each song.
What I want to do, very simply, is to sort on column B in order to display the list of songs from the most played to least played. That is where I run into a problem. When I sort my list of numbers, I end up with a seemingly random list that certainly isn't from most to least and I can't figure out why.
Is it possible that the COUNTIF function which populates that column of numbers is somehow throwing off the sort?
I have excel 2007, I have a spread sheet with approx 80 worksheets. The document grew over the year of 2010 and is not in alphabetical order. I am starting this new year wanting to have the tabs in alphabetical order. I looked in the DATA sort option...but looks like its is worksheet specific. How to make the tabs sort in alphabetical order...
I am using Excel 2007 and I have a worksheet with multiple columns, some of these columns are protected and some are not.
I then lock the worksheet with a password so the user can't edit certain cells that are protected but can modify the unprotected cells, the problem is the user cannot use the filter or sort the workbook.
Is there a way to allow filtering or sorting but still lock down the worksheet.
I am stuck trying to sort data that looks like the following, into a format that I can use as source data for pivot tables/charts.

I will need to group Data multiple ways. However, I cant work out a good way to sort it. Can I have a suggestion on layout that I will be able to arrange data appropriately.
I would like to take the data from worksheet1 and put into worksheet2 but limit the length of a list (the real spread sheet has over 100 rows and i would like them in 4 sets of 25 versus the example I provided). Is there an array or macro that would make this work (keeping the formatting)..
how to add many columns to the rightmost part of the worksheet carrying on from Col AA?
I keep getting error 'Cannot shift objects off sheet.' and followed instructions to change a setting to All or use control-6 but this made no difference.
I'm looking to simply find a function that allows me to lookup a certain value in a table of data and return the value in a specific column. So if I looked up the current date, 6/27/2011, it would return the week it is in (26). I dont want to be limited to just the monday column however, as the dates I will be throughout the entire week. Is there an easy way to do this in excel 2007?
I am using Windows xp and Excel 2007. I'm creating a user form and have a vlookup formula that goes to a table and looks up calories and sodium based on the text entered by the user. My problem is that I want to be able to populate the 3 columns with information and then sum the values that are returned to the Calories and Sodium columns. Is that possible with Vlookup?
I am trying to copy two columns to a different sheet in vba code. I will ultimately need to do this multiple times but I think I have the iteration part ok, it's just the copy part that seems to be wrong.
The original code I used for this works great on one column but I knew the letter column each time I used it. Now I am trying to get two columns at a time and will be iterating through several based on user selections. I figure that will be faster to do both columns as the two columns are side by side.
I am getting an error on the PasteSpectial line "Run-time error '1004' PasteSpecail method of Range class failed.
I'm not sure where to go with this but I am assuming I have a problem with the Range selection lines on either the source or destination or both. The support is just for Macro errors.
I have the following situation and I'm trying to do this using a PC with Excel 2007.

This procedure will become part of a macro. The number of rows will vary but the number of columns will be the same (11 columns). I don't care too much about the order since I can later sort. As long as the data from all columns in now in one column.
macro for an Excel 2007 file. It has to be a macro. I have cells in two columns I need to look at. Column A will have a value of cat, dog, or mouse. Column B will have a date. If A2="mouse" AND B2<"1/1/2013" Then A2="" ElseIf A2=mouse" AND B2>="1/1/2013" Then A2="mouse". I don't need anything to happen if A2 is equal to cat or dog. The macro has to move down the entire A and B column: A3/B3, A4/B4, and so on until the end of the columns. Hope this makes sense. I've tried a few macro samples I found online but they don't quite fit what I need done, or I don't know how to modify it.
I'm using Excel 2007. My pivot table seems to be limiting me to 256 columns in the Values/Data area. In researching below I believe that I should be able to have 16,000 columns in my Pivot Table.
[URL] The "Big Grid" and Increased Limits in Excel 2007
PivotTables Maximum rows displayed in a PivotTable report is 1 million. Maximum columns displayed in a PivotTable report is 16,000. Maximum number of unique items within a single Pivot field is 1 million. Maximum number of fields visible in the Fields list is 16,000.
I am looking for a way of allowing users to edit the existing cells at their will, but simultaneously disabling the option to insert/ delete columns or rows.
By enabling Sheet Protection, I cannot find a way to do it. Can I?
I am on MS Excel 2007 by the way.
I found the way, just unlock all cells in Format Cells, Protection Tab. Then Protect sheet and de-select what you want to disable.
I am currently using MS Excel 2007. Is there a way in VBA to automatically insert missing columns based on a defined series or range of values?
For example, we have a report that displays columns of: Year 2004 to Year 2012 per column (9 columns in total). Sometimes, it displays missing a year or years (thus; our report has less columns). For example, it only shows 2008 to 2012 (missing 2004 to 2007). At times, it misses some years in between. What we do is manually add those missing years by manually inserting columns then inputting the missing year as their column headers.
Is it posisble for VBA to check if the columns contain all of the defined Year range (for example, you've initially defined: Year 2004 to Year 2012)? Afterwards, all missing columns are automoatically inserted (in chronological order or based on your defined values or range).
I'm currently working on a process to recategorise products for a distribution company to give a category based on successful sales transactions.
Product Code Category Month 1 Month 2
[Code].....
This isnt the actual data in case you're wondering I'm doing this with 32k lines.
So, what I want to have is categories based on sales transactions, labelled with letters. So, cat A is sales in three consecutive and top X when total of three month consecutive sales, cat B being above X number of transactions in three months not already categorised by cat A. There is a Cat C, and various others which I can do myself, but i dont know how to make the category A work.
I have a data set that tracks ingredients in chemical products. For example sake the chemical product is a mixed color, and the calculated ingredient is a primary color.
I need to calculate the quantity of two primary colors based on their percentage of the mixture.
Column A contains the mixed color names. Columns B and C contain the percentage of the primary in each mix.
I began tracking this data in January 2009. Each month I add 3 columns to the worksheet. The 1st column contains the monthly mixed color quantity used. The 2nd and 3rd columns contain the calculation of the two primary colors.
I need the formula to calculate the 12 month rolling total for each primary color. (For July 2014 I need to calculate July 2013 through June 2014)
I have to find the union of 2 columns in excel and club those 2 columns into a single column with values in the increasing order.eg: column 1- 0 2 4.. , column 2- 1,3,5.. final result in column 3 should be 0 1 2 3 4 5...plz let me know the code for this that i can run in VB editor(- excel 2007)
