Possible To Sort Hoizontally With Multiple Columns Under One Header
Aug 6, 2008
In row 1 I want to have the names of servers, so we would have A C D E
Under each of those I want to have 4 other columns, so A would have on row 2 Start, End, Data, Time, or something like that.
Then B would have under it Start, End, Data, Time
And so on for C D ...
I would then want to sort it by the top level row, so if I had to insert B at the end I could sort it so it would be
A B C D E with all of the Start End Data and Time for the server to be moved along with it's master header.
I tried setting this up but then I went to sort it told me it could only sort if the columns were the same size, so having a merged top level A with four things under it did not work.
I have an issue with an export file which is produced in CSV format and needs to be aligned. I have attached a sample of what I refer to.
My Source excel file looks like:
ABC A-101 B - 202 DEF B-203 C - 100
The destination should align with the relevant column headers and place a blank if it doesn't match. Other have queried a similar thing, however my header and data and description is actually in the same cell with a dash separating them.
The output I want is:
A B C D ABC 101 202 DEF 203 100
There are multiple row of employees with varied column headings as its dependent on what system access the user has. The headings i.e. A,B,C for example is a fixed number of headers.
In my real data set the headers represents a 3 letter system prefix e.g. ZCR,ILP etc
I am trying to find min value for a row (product price) within two columns (price lists) and return row one (company name) in third column ( see the attachmet). My first idea was to use “min” and “if” but a problem occur when there are text or zero or none values in the price list. I tried with conditional formatting, offset function, match-index and other methods without success
If I searched for the value "abc123" I want it to return Headers 1 and 2 in a seperate column. It would not matter if the same value is in one column multiple times
So the results would show me the Column Heading for anything that reads: "abc123", "ABC123", "AbC123", "aBC123"
I found this code on Ozgrid to sort all columns of a worksheet that were continuous with no gaps or spaces that works well:
Sub CopyToA() Do While ActiveCell <> "" Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.End(xlDown)).Cut Destination:=Range("a65535").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select Loop End Sub
However, I've tried to manipulate the code myself to 1) find all columns that aren't empty then 2) sort each column individually (WITHOUT expanding the sort to other columns) and 3) combining all the numbers into one seperate column. There are many posts concerning sorting but not one that addressed this particular situation.
I'm trying to figure out a way ( excel 2000) how to sort data over a range of columns.
Attached is a sheet.
So what I am looking for is this:
Bottom 10 for target 1, target 2, target 3.
I can sort them indervidually, but is there a way to sort the all?
Or would I need a agent column for each target to sort?
Or maybe there is a way to sort the data so it would work out that if they are in the bottom 10 of lets say 2 of the targets but not all 3 they would still show in the bottom 10?
I have a Number total(using a formula) in Column B
Each week I am copying from another source Names and Numbers, let's say in Column C and D.
I want to match the names in A with the Names in C so they are in the same row. The number in Column D needs to go with name from Column C.
Right now I am having to highlight the name and number in Column C & D and then drag it down to the row with the exact name in Column A. If there is a new name it adds it at the bottom of Column A and C.
My columns are labeled A B C D etc... If the product I am creating the table for falls into one of those categories I place a 1 in the cell. For instance, ProductA falls into the A and B categories, so column A will get a 1 and column B will get a 1. This is so I can sort all of category A's Products etc...
I am looking for a formula to put in a column that would Say what categories ProductA falls into. ie Since ProductA falls into the A and B catergories but not the C and D catergories, This final column would say something like AB, or A,B or something.
Alternatively, I could make a single column entiltled 'categories' and put something like 'A B' in ProductA's column. In this case I would need a way to sort all A's or sort all B's and not just sort all 'A B'
I need to put a worksheet together that has multiple columns that I can then sort in order (on any one columns that affects each row together) in "vehicle type".
I want to set it up so the full listing can be sorted top to bottom in colour or then click sort to sort in MAX SIZE and or again sort in SPEED. (So sort in Alpabetical order or by value).
I havent used pivot tables before and assume its the best way. I dont want to use the filter system to sort as its too clumsy for the end user.
In the attached example file, I have two tabs: options and sets. The options tab is to be populated from a form. The sets tab is to draw data from the options tab to create teaching sets. I have managed to create an array formula that does this for me, but what I would like it to do is sort my resulting list alphabetically. For reasons that I won't go into, I need the data on the sets tab to remain in three columns: First Name, Surname and Form.
This is the array formula I am using at the moment: AliGW - Example.xlsx
I have a row of sub-headings at row 12 that require Sort Filters. My problem is that I need the filters on selected columns only. It seems that with the standard filter button I get all or nothing.
I am trying to sort each "Pct" column in descending order. Of course, I can do this manually, but I have over 100 to do, so I'd like to know how I can automate this (of course, the two columns to the left of "Pct" must move along with it).
I have a spreadsheet with multiple columns. The first column defines a "route", and the next two list "start" and "end" cities for that route. The fourth column lists the length of each route. There are only a limited number of cities, so the same entries appear in both "start" and "end" several times. I would like to use Autofilter to sort the list for every appearance of a given entry in either "start" or "end". Is there a way to make Autofilter sort mutiple columns simultaneously?
I could achieve the desired end result with Advanced Filter, but I want something with the ease-of-use and immediate update/response of Autofilter. Advanced Filter requires explanation (as well as lots of clicking and typing) whereas Autofilter is self-evident. I also want to avoid VBA Macros as they are not well-understood by the users who will use this spreadsheet (and any VBA Macro will require very specific input to work properly.) Is it possible to do what I want? Or is Advanced Filter / VBA the only way to do it?
Attached is an example page. My goal is to be able to click on one of the header cells, and have it sort that column from high to low, and if I click that same cell have it sort from low to high. I know how to do this by making a command button, but, I want to do it by clicking on the cell itself. I just dont know how to do the onclick to execute the code.
Came across a spreadsheet that my firm created, where you can click on the column header and it automatically sorts ascending order for the column without messing up the other columns. Then if you double click it again, it will sort in reverse order.
I have a spreadsheet which contains a list of chemicals in Column A, and a list of numbers in Column B. The chemicals are separated into groups. I am trying to create a macro which sorts the chemicals in their groups by column B, so that the lowest number is at the top. I have 8 groups, and the number of lines in each group may vary, so I need to make the code dynamic.
I have attempted it. The way I thought it could be done was to search for the first group header, then save the address. Do the same for the next group header, then offset that by -1 row and 1 column, then sort using these two addresses as the range. The first part of the code works, where I find the address for both group headers, but everything after that doesn't work.
Sub Sort() Dim CNMT(8) As String Dim j As Integer Dim fromRow As String Dim toRow As String Dim rng1 As Range Dim rng2 As Range CNMT(1) = "TPH Fractions" CNMT(2) = "BTEX & MTBE" CNMT(3) = "PAHs" CNMT(4) = "VOCs" CNMT(5) = "SVOCs" CNMT(6) = "Metals" CNMT(7) = "Inorganics" CNMT(8) = "Pesticides" For j = 1 To 8..................
I have two header rows on a sheet that I need to sort starting on Row 3, Column A.
The sheet is A-K and rows 1 and 2 are headers
Row 1 has merged cells of A-F which says "Information" and then G-K " Tracking Section" Row 2 is broken up into individual sub-headers in columns, A-K each one having a bit more info for instance:
Under the "Information" merged header in row 1 there is A2 Name B2 Work Center C2 C/O date D2 Due CC E2 Due MX F2 Date Received
and G-K in row 2 has different sub-headings.
I have tried to use my normal code, which is great for one header, but it ends up sorting the sub-header as I call it...
I would like to create a list covering multiple columns. I would like to have 5 columns which will contain the same value/ (word). If I select,that value from the list, I would like to have each row the word is found be displayed regardless of which row it is found.
In the worksheet "Batting and Pitching Register", I'd like to be able to sort the data in the two charts (APBA Batting Register and APBA Pitching Register) by simply clicking on the cells in the respective header rows.
I've set up ranges (Batting and Pitching), but have had no luck moving beyond that.
find macros to sort fixed ranges but not an entire column with existing header rows from 1 to 4.
Added to that is the need to keep the code compatible with Excel 2003 even though I have Excel 2010 at office (it's a file that needs to be "openable" in both versions so the vb code needs to be in XL 03.
Column currently starts at C5 but goes down to C47, at this point. But it's a growing list. Some of the rows are blank at the bottom, too.
I am looking for a better solution working with columns in VBA.
Currently, I refer to columns by their letter or # in my VBA code.
For example:
Columns("AW:AW").FormulaR1C1 = "=+RC[-8]" I have a scenario where I have to work with a dynamic data source that scrambles columns around (column is not always in the same position on the spreadsheet). Currenct...Also, there may be missing columns or new columns that need to be recognized.
What I would like to do is refer to my columns by header name.
For example (PSUEDO CODE):
If column ("MTD BUD") or ("MTD REV") do not exist Then Goto ErrorHandler Else Columns("MTD REV").FormulaR1C1 = "=+RC[MTD BUD]" End if Would the best way to go about something like this be to create an array with column header names that I can run things against? How would this look?
I am trying to sort a long range of text that is placed horizontally in a spreadsheet. I can do it vertically with the sort function in Excel but it does not seem to work for text that is placed horizontally. Example is as below:
So I want to add some VBA Code that deletes specified columns and then insert Bolded Column headers to the remaining columns. The columns I want deleted are D,F,I,J,K. For simplicity purposes, the column headers would be A,B,C,D,E,F,G.
I tried using Columns("D,F,I,J,K").delete but I kept on getting 13 error.
I want to export some columns of my worksheet to a csv-file. But i don't want to export all of them, i just need for example: Columns B, D and G and inside the csv-file they should be in an different order like G, B, D .
I already thought about using "union" to select the specific columns, but i can't get this to work.
I have the following code that sorts each column sperately and it works, but believe this is a long way round and not the best way. I need the columns sorting alphabetically seperately and each has a header row.
The column header row for a string; if the header contains one of two possible strings then copy the entire column. I've tried the following code but it's not working.
Select Case oColHeader Case InStr(oColHeader, "how much", 1) > 0 Selection.EntireColumn.Copy Case InStr(oColHeader, "level of sat", 1) > 0 Selection.EntireColumn.Copy End Select
