Excel 2007 :: Where To Find Oldest To Newest Or Newest To Oldest Sort Option
Jun 4, 2014
I want to sort a column in Excel 2007 which is having dates. Normally, we use oldest to newest or newest to oldest option in sort & filter. But i am unable to find this option in my excel sheet. how can I find this option in Sort & Filter.
Note: I have imported this data column from Access 2007
I've got one very strange column of dates. The dates in the column are in different formats and probably the first thing would be convert them into one format.
They are, like...
04/07/2014 04:50 and 08/24/12 09:46:59
... type cells. The next thing would be sort them in some logical way not just by first number.
Column with dates.xlsx
What I am having now and how far I am, is...
They might be sorted in some way by month and date but not by actual year that is left out completely. It is just total mismatch and doesn't make any sense.
I am doing a project for work at the moment where by I have to manipulate a report compiled by an external program and do various bits and bobs to it. Trouble is, the other program creates a new version every time it runs the report (i.e filename.1.xls, and the next day filename.2.xls, and so on). Is there any way of searching the folder these files are in to find the newest file and select that one as the one to open and manipulate? There will be no files other than these in the folder.
In the included workbook I've got a sheet that needs to be updated every time a userform is completed. So I intend to run a macro after the data is entered to find duplicates, and delete the older row.
so, column A must match then column C must match then look in columns AK & AL to find the newest entry to keep. I also need to delete any rows where column A is empty(light Green), no matter what other columns have data.
In my example sheet all the yellow's match for column A but the bright yellow's are the only "keepers", because one has a different number in "C" and the other is the newest.
Also remember that this is just part of a much bigger, multi-sheet book so I will need to I.D. this sheet in the code.
I want to know the macro code to find out the oldest date in the Calculation sheet of the attachment based on two criteria.
The criteria should be if the Item ID on Calculation sheet matches the Item Id Pivot sheet and then if the Status on pivot sheet and calculation sheet matches then the macro should find out the oldest date for each item ID. And once the oldest date is identified the difference on pivot sheet should be added to the cost basis column on calculation sheet to the already found oldest date lot.
1) how can I return the oldest date in the entire workbook (or at least in the entire sheet if it's not possible to find that date in the entire workbook).
I am doing a bit of data spring cleaning... I need some VBA that will look at column FT for duplicates. I want it then to keep only the most recent one, so it would delete the others rows completely. Column B contains a date and time. When removing the items it should make a copy of them to the sheet Delete Log.
I have two columns of data. In column A is a date and in B is a dollar amount. I need a formula to average the dollar amount in Column B for the newest 42 entries. Every month I have to add a row at the top of the sheet to enter a date and dollar amount. Eventually there will be more than 42 entries. Each time I add a row to the sheet my formula's range shifts down with it. Here is an example of the data that will eventually go past 42 rows.
A B 112/1/08 $4000 211/1/08 $4250 310/1/08 $5000 49/1/08 $4300
I have an excel spreadsheet that has a list of pathways to different folders (ex. Q:TechnicalY001) in each row. I want a macro that will search each of the folders I list in a range of cells and return the most recent file by the Date in the filename:
The macro would return the most recent file in Y001 and dump the filename into cell B1. Then it would return the most recent file in Y002 and dump the filename into B2.
After I have all of the most recent filenames, I want to be able to search each of those files for data in certain cells and then dump that data into the spreadsheet. The cells are always going to be the same in each file.
I'm trying to figure out a formula to that will pull the newest data from a list. So say I have a list A2:A20. Each week a new number will be entered into the next cell (in this case A21) making the list longer. Is there a formula or some script that will allow me to do this? I have tried a few different things and cant seem to figure it out
I have a pretty good size file here where I need to remove duplicated date BUT keep only the Newest Record.
What is Needed is to look at "test Group Identification" and compare it to "Actual Start Time" and keep only the Newest Record and remove any Exact Duplicated data
See example of Data.
Test Status Test Group Test Group Identification Actual Start Time Want I need

I want to seach and select the newest date in a column. There are green, red and black fonts in the column. I only want to only seach the cells with black fonts.
I need a formula on my "Problem Areas" sheet that will search and then list from my "Overall" sheet the ten oldest dates (column O), that have not been closed (column B), and do not match the text "Repair Clin" (column S). Each row of data begins with the purchase order# (column A).
On the "Problem Areas" sheet it will only list the PO# and Date Opened.
I have a spreedsheet with 17,000 rows in it. In column D I have ID numbers and in column B I have the dates. There are multiple entries for each ID in column D which gives multiples dates each entry was given in column B. I need a VBA Macro that will identify duplicate entries in Column D and keep only the most recent entry by date in column B.
Without VBA, I'd like to find the most recent date in a workbook. The workbook as various columns with dates on numerous sheets. I just need to know the date that is the newest date. Nothing else.
date1/Jan2/Jan3/Jan4/Jan5/Jan6/Jan7/Jan8/Jan9/Jan10/Jan11/Janquantity 502023108948202535current stock 200oldest date of manufacture?
I have a report that lists the quantity of an item that is manufactured on particular day. On some days there will be no items produced. The report is similar to the above table. I don't want to change the table format.
I know the current stock of that item (in this example it is 200). Note that the current stock is not just the sum of the quantiy for each day's production.
I need a function that will determine the oldest date of manufacture of material in the current stock. The function assumes that that the current stock is made up of the most recently produced material. ie the stock is depleted on a first in -first out basis. Essentially the calculation has to sum backwards from the most recent manufacture date until the total = 200 and then lookup to corresponding date.
In the above table the oldest prodcution date would be 6/Jan. The answer to the funstion in example = 6/Jan
I've posted versions of my complaints log/database here recently and am looking at the next version in reports.
I would like to create a small table that upper management can look at weekly and say "these are still open, why?" rather than having to look thru the log or go by memory.
I already have an "at a glance" chart, now I'd like to have something similar as a list (complaint number, date opened, customer, and maybe the issue at hand). would love to have this as a floating object that can be dragged around if needed. (embedded in a text box?)
What I want to do is return the oldest date to another sheet, but I only want to return the oldest date if the backlog value is higher than 0. So example below has oldest date with 0 as backlog value, I don't want to return that date, but go to the oldest one with an actual backlog value.
So I have the following raw data in Sheet1
[Code] .....
Now I want to put this raw data in Sheet 2
I use this formula to pull the data =SMALL(Sheet1!C3:C5,1)) but this returns the B4 value to me, which I don't want as A4 is 0.
I've been thinking about somehow using VLOOKUP or IF to sort this out but I am stuck.
I am writing to a text file and only want to allow 10,000 lines. There is only one value on each line. How can I trim the top of this text file to allow for more entries to be appended to it and still keep it at no more that 10,000 entries?
I have 4 columns (Date (A), Open (B), High (C), Low (D)) in date order with the newest at the top. I have a value in G1, I'd like to see the oldest date returned in H1 of when a value in the (D) column is lower then G1. I've been looking at match and vlookup but what I can't seem to figure out is how to return the oldest date.
I am looking for a formula to determine the oldest date in a range of cells. BUT, the part that's kicking me in the pants here, is that the range will change.
In column D, I have a person's name. The number of times that person's name will appear will change every time I run this formula. In column F, I have a date & time. I'm looking for a formula that will determine the oldest date/time associated with that person.
