Keeping Rows Together For Sort?

Sep 20, 2012

I have dumped main frame data into excel. It is customer info that is in three rows of data each. I need to know if its possible to group or somehow keep three rows of data together for multiple sorts. The first row is the customer name, the second row is their first line of address, the third row is the city, state and zip. I need to add columns to this dumped data, but I will need to do a number of sorts for different views of the data. But as I've stated every 3 rows go together. I've tried different ways to group (for lack of a better word) the three rows, but nothing I've tried works. I've also done multiple searches, but either I'm not searching on the right word or this can't be done.

I'm trying to sort by City first, then by Report #, but keeping the highlighted rows together. If I use the custom sort it will through my D2's at the bottom and not keep them with their city, report, and D1. How do I get them to stay together? I have attached my document example.

Removing Duplicate Rows, But Keeping The First One.

Feb 28, 2008

I have an excel spreadsheet with approximately 10000 rows. There are approximately 10 columns...

Column A - person's ID number
Column B - name
Column C - Street Address
Column D - City
Column E - State

etc...

It being such a large list there are many many duplicates (it was pulled from a bunch of different excel spreadsheets and combined into one via copy and pasting one document into the other).

I figured out a way to have excel highlight the duplicates in a different color... but scrolling through 10k people and deleting the duplicates is obviously very tedious (approx 40% of the spreadsheet is duplicates).

Is there a way to sort out the duplicates (via their ID number, column A) so that there are no repeats? I want to get rid of the 2nd/3rd/4th (etc) occurance of the person's information but I was to obviously keep the first occurance.

I tried using Advanced Filter but I must have done something wrong because it shrunk the list too far down.

Merging Spreadsheets And Keeping Duplicate Rows?

Aug 15, 2014

I have a spreadsheet with only 80 rows in it and I need data from another spreadsheet with over 200 rows. One of these rows in each spreadsheet contains a matching field (Job #). I only want the 80 matching rows data from the over 200 row sheet.

Is there an easy way to combine these two. Even adding the 80 to the 200+ will be fine as I can just remove the blanks. I can't figure out a way to combine them and match them up.

Copying Values But Keeping Rows That Have Formulas In Them

Dec 31, 2012

I have a spreadsheet with a lot of financial information going down a column (about 500 rows down). Most of the cells are just typed in, but certain rows have sum formulas in them. Is it possible to copy values from another workbook, paste the values in, but somehow keep the formulas that are running through?

Keeping Only Selected Rows Over Multiple Worksheets

Nov 29, 2013

I have an excel file with over 20 worksheets and each of them have around 1200 rows. The first column in each worksheet contains the variable names and then the data associated to it is present horizontally.

I only want to keep around 80 rows from those 1200 rows. They are not in sequence (means they are not in continuous order) so I manually selected those rows by deleting the non required rows step by step.

I did it manually on 2 worksheets but I don't want to do that manually over 20 worksheets. Is there any method that can speedup the whole process.

I am attaching the snapshots of the worksheets..

This one is before I deleted the unwanted rows.

This one is after the deletion of unwanted rows.

Merging Duplicate Rows And Keeping Original Data

Feb 18, 2014

I need to merge rows with duplicate values in column A (Patient Name being the most important one), with columns B, C, & D usually having different isolated values as well. Columns E, F, G, H, & I are date columns, but the data is always going to be the number 1, meaning a patient was seen once that day (if they were seen two times that day for different reasons, information would be in an unmerged second row [same patient name listed in two separate rows], where columns B & C would be different). Column J is an autosum of columns E through I if that makes a difference. Column K is a notes column. The data that needs to be merged is always added to the bottom of the spreadsheet in order to show that a patient was seen on any given day, with columns B through K almost always being blank. Example:

Column A---------Column B---Col C----Col D--Col E--Col F--Col G--Col H--Col I--Col J---------Col K
Patient Name-----Therapist---Shared--%P----2/3----2/4----2/5-----2/6----2/7---Total Visits--Notes

Alice Alpha--------AB----------PT-------1---------------------------------------------0-------------blah
Boris Beta---------BC----------SELF----2----------------------------------------------0------------blahblah
Carl Carlisle-------CD---------PTA------3----------------------------------------------0
Carl Carlisle-------AB---------SELF-----2----------------------------------------------0
Donny Delta-------DE---------PT--------1---------------------------------------------0
Ernie Elephant-----EF---------PTA-------2---------------------------------------------0
Alice Alpha-----------------------------------------------1
Carl Carlisle--------------------------------------1--------------1---------------1
Ernie Elephant-------------------------------------------1---------------1

This is what I'm hoping it can look like:

Column A---------Column B---Col C----Col D--Col E--Col F--Col G--Col H--Col I--Col J---------Col K
Patient Name-----Therapist---Shared--%P----2/3----2/4----2/5-----2/6----2/7---Total Visits--Notes

Alice Alpha--------AB----------PT-------1---------------1-----------------------------1-------------blah
Boris Beta---------BC----------SELF----2----------------------------------------------0------------blahblah
Carl Carlisle-------CD---------PTA------3-------1--------------1---------------1------3
Carl Carlisle-------AB---------SELF-----2----------------------------------------------0
Donny Delta-------DE---------PT--------1---------------------------------------------0
Ernie Elephant-----EF---------PTA-------2--------------1---------------1-------------2

In this example Carl Carlisle is being seen for two different things, however how would it be written so the macro would know which Carl Carlisle row to merge with? I'm thinking that before running the macro I could manually enter the information into column B so it knows which Carl Carlisle row above to merge with.

Data always starts at row 14 (row 13 is frozen pane header column), and extends to a row that is different every week depending on how many people happen to be in the list.

I found something from this link that looks very similar to what I need, but with no knowledge of coding, I have no idea how it should be tweaked: Merge Duplicate Rows Keeping Data In Same Columns

I know I'm asking a lot, but the amount of time this takes to manually go through hundreds of rows of patient names every week is incredibly time consuming, and I have too many other things to stay on top of at work for this to drag me down day in and day out.

Merge Duplicate/Similiar Rows Keeping Data In Same Columns

Sep 1, 2008

After sorting and filtering rows with in a set range I will have several rows that are almost duplicates. This is normal and expected due to how the workbook is used. Among these rows also will be several single rows that are not duplicates. It is important that I combine any two duplicates into one row. Example:

CREATE TABLES LIKE BELOW?
ABC D E F G H I J K

1 NameA 0XX15930777PS101300PS9

2 NameA0XX15930777PS91200PS10

3 NameX1159XXP555FBX1545PS9

4 NameB0A1234P123PS101263PS9

5 NameB1A1234P123PS90512PS10


What I need is this end result:

CREATE TABLES LIKE BELOW?
ABC D E F G H I J K

1 NameA 0XX15930777PS91200PS10PS101300PS9

2 NameX1159XXP555FBX1545PS9

3 NameB1A1234P123PS90512PS10PS101263PS9


It’s important that the data in each column stay with in that same column. Also of course it needs to be on the same row with the same person (NameA and NameB). The Columns that would determine if it’s a duplicate are D and E –. I would need this to be preformed via macro or some easy way so that others will not have a hard time. It will be on a protected Shared Workbook with Excel 2003. I've enclosed a Sample. How can I sort these or accomplish this and maintain the data where it needs to be?

Sort Without Using The Top 2 Rows

Sort The Rows Of Data

Apr 10, 2009

We have an issue with sorting rows of data that have formulas in them.

---------------
These formulas are using data from a row which is above the column headers.

For example cell H2 has 160 manually entered in it. It's the number of work hours available in January 2009.

The column header for that column is in Q4 and has a value of 'Jan'

Below this in cell H5 is the formula '=+H2' because the resource in this row is available for 100% of the month.

Another resource in row 22 has the formula '=+H2*0.15' in cell H22 because they are only available 15% of the time that month.

---------------
The problem occurs when we try to sort this data. Most of the cells displays #REF!. Some show a value, but the calculation is wrong.

Macro To Sort 100 000 Rows

Sep 21, 2008

I've got up to 150000 rows in excel (2007) and i need to sort the data into 2 sheets.
Sheet1 contains all the data. Sample:

1000999999027FRESH PASTA FETTUCINE WITH TOM102002P N0809100000035000000012810000000+0000000+ 0000000000000000+0203001896409
2000999999027020300189640900000000000005740200070063

As you can see, the first row starts with 1000 and second with 2000. That would be the criteria. All other rows goes exactly the same.

I need macro that copies all the rows starting with 1000 onto sheet2 and all the rows starting with 2000 onto sheet3.

Filtering and copy/paste won't help, because the list is toooooo big. Thatswhy only hope is to find macro that loops threw the list.

Sort Rows Without Sorting

May 18, 2009

I have data being fed from an application where it's difficult to sort the rows into ascending order. So is there a way that VBA can sort them and produce a value according to the order?

For example, Column A contains 5 rows.
Row 1's value is 4
Row 2's value is 1
Row 3's value is 2
Row 4's value is 3
Row 5's value is 5

If I were to sort these into ascending order, I'd get 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 in Column A. But I can't sort the rows so I need code to tell me which is the lowest number (1), which is the second lowest number (2), etc.

The purpose of the code will be to put values in Column B according to what's found in Column A. For the the lowest number, 1, the value in the cell next to it in Column B would be "a". For number 2, it would be "b", etc.

Macro To Sort The Rows

Aug 24, 2009

I have a spreadsheet that I would like to create a sort macro for. The number of rows will be variable but will always start in the same row. (i.e. ... it might be from A2:E200, A2:E300, A2:244. etc.) Some of the data fields will be blank.

How can I assure I am always getting the correct data selected to sort. I generally create my macros by recording and then sometimes tweaking them manually when necessary but I really don't know VB code very well. When I record a macro using the end/down and end/right combination, I get this
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select

This may or may not always work depending upon how many blanks I have and where they are located. Here is a simple example of what my sheet may look like. Note column F is blank and column G has formulas that looks at the cells A:E in that particular row for evaluation. The sort only needs to go to row E although if it went further, I guess it wouldn't matter. I'm sure this is an easy problem to resolve but I just don't know what code to use.

Sort And Hide Rows As Typed?

May 3, 2014

Is there a way to imitate the search box in access where it highlights any matching text in the entire database. BUT, instead of hitting the next arrow to go to the next matching thing, I want it to simply hide all rows that contain nothing that matches. I don't want it to just hide them though, I want them to be shown from the topmost cell down rather than simply hiding cells and having a ton of gaps to look through. If this can be done in access then that will work as well.

Macro To Delete Rows And Sort

Sep 27, 2009

I have attached a worksheet to illustrate a "Before" (raw data) and "After" (desired results).

Each row contains data on a forex trade. The variables which must be assessed in each row are:

Currency Pair (e.g. GBP/USD).
Opening Time
Closing Time

What I need to do is delete many rows in the raw data because they reflect a condition I do not want in my analysis, which is having multiple open trades of a single currency pair during the same time period.

To perform my analysis I need to delete all trades (rows) which meet the above condition.

The worksheet provides examples, along with a rudimentary tool I've used to help me sort/delete rows manually.

Since I am looking at thousands of trades, a manual sort/delete is impractical. (my eyes don't like this kind of work!)

The rudimentary tool I've used in manual sorts/deletes is simply to have a column which returns a "1" if a trade opens before an older trade has closed. I do this by first sorting the data by (a) currency pair then (b) date opened. Then I must manually go through multiple iterations of deleting trades until there all of the "1's" have disappeared.

I'm hoping someone can show me a macro which might do this sorting/testing/deleting automatically, at least to the point where all I have to do is repeatedly press a "macro" button until there are no "1's"
