Re-Order Columns Based On Column Order Of Another Worksheet
Mar 1, 2008
I need a way to re-order an excel worksheets columns based on another worksheet.
Data is extracted from a database into excel however users can configure the columns in the initial system. to how they like This causes problems when the data is copied into an excel spreadsheet I have created as the data copied will not be in the same column order as is required.
How can i reorder the columns without physically having to cut and paste the columns to match?
I have attached a sample spreadsheet.
You will see on the spreadsheet that 'fixed columns' is the order that i require the data however 'variable columns' is not in the same order.
How would I reorder columns & tabs based on a form where the user can put them into order that they would like the columns? I forsee some type of form where the user can dsignate the order and then start a macro that will sort both the columns and tabs.
I have a table with one column of data. The data in this column repeats with 4 relevant pieces of information that I want to put in 4 different columns (fields) in a different spread sheet (or the same would work better and I would just delete the first column when done) keeping the same order the data is now in. The data currently repeats in a regular pattern (i.e. 123412341234 with no other data in between). I would like to do this with a macro. Could someone help write a macro that will do this
I looked at threads realted to printing but wasn ot able to find something similar to what I need. So here is my problem:
I have a file with more than 100 worksheets (each sheet contains the invoice for one store). I would like to create a macro that would enable me to determine the order in which worksheets would be printed. How to do it?
Idea #1: the printing order would be based on the value in cell L1 that would contain the route number for each store. Stores belonging to the same delivery route will have the same value in L1. So, the macro should first print all sheets with 1 in cell L1, then print all sheets with 2 in cell L1 and so on...
Idea #2: Creating a separate data sheet with the list of all stores and their corresponding route number. Let's say info is contained in range A1:B150, where Column A contains the name of the stores and column B contains the route numbers. The macro then should look at that list to determine the printing order of the subsequent worksheets (the name of the store in column A would be the same as the name of the worksheet corresponding to that store).
Idea #3: sorting my 150 worksheets manually. It does not solve my problem fully, though, because stores do not always belong to the same route. So the manual sorting should be carried out daily and would not save time at all.
I'm trying to make an order form that is based off of a price list. Basically there will be 200 items or so someone can just enter the quantity they want into a column. I would then like another sheet on the workbook to auto-populate all of the fields available. The thing I'm having trouble with is I don't want the finished form to be as long as the price list with blank rows in-between. I've been reading up to make a macro work for this, but have had no success.
I have a macro that will create multiple worksheets (up to 19) within the same workbook. There could be any combination and/or count of the worksheets, but I would like to place them in the same order every time. For example 1,2,3,4,5 or 1,2,4,5 depending on the number outputted. However these tabs will not be in alpha or numeric order.
Is there a way to create a final line(s) of vba code to place these tabs in the preferred order?
I need a code to sort worksheets in a huge workbook. Is this technically possible!?
The information containing the worksheet order is available in worksheet "Aux", column A contains the rank (1,2,3,...etc.), whereas column B contains the corresponding worksheet names.
I have trying to remove duplicate value for two columns which are not in order since long time. I have listed an example for the purpose. Two rows contains same information in different columns. I just wanted to have one row and remove the other with same information.
I want to use data validation to enforce that every cell is greater than the next cell in that column. I've tried using =OFFSET(A:A,1,0) thinking that it'll return in next one, but no luck.
AS you can see in the attached file, I have several collumns of data going form 2012 to 1992. I would like to know the quickest way to invert this so the data is presented 1992 to 2012.
1. first I export data and directly paste in the "RAWDATA" Sheet. 2.There are 50 columns and each has header like Clientname,date,Id,campaign,websitename,frequecncy etc. 3.Exported data does not have same order 4.so when I paste data in excel I check manually if orders are in correct or not?which takes my long time to review/manually check
Using macro or something else to review the order and if any discrepancy then raise error? Need Excel to check order of columns ?
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 a sheet diplaying 5 columns of percentages which I need to rank in descending order, i.e. assign rank 1 to the largest percentage and 5 to the lowest. See the attached sheet.
I have a couple of Pivot Tables that I create each month summarising my Income and Expenditure. The only problem I have is making the columns appear in the correct order, i.e. where July is month1 through June(the following year) being month 12 to coincide with my financial year. Oddly enough last month (January) was fine, following December.
This month January and February appear in columns 1 & 2.
I have a spreadsheet saved with one worksheet with all the results on it and 130 worksheets with calculations on them, each with its' own named tab along the bar at the bottom of the page. What I'd like to know is if it is possible to sort the tabs into alphabetical order so I don't have to roam through up to 130 to find the tab (and it's corresponding worksheet) I'm looking for.
I have 8 Sheets in my worksheet with orders from my customers. Column C is their PO# and Column M is the Status of the order. What im looking to do is set up a summary sheet with the List of 8 customers that tells me what PO#'s are in a particular status. I need a formula to list all PO's that are in "Fabricating" or "Completed" Statuses.
I have gotten this far: =if(Sheet1!M25="Fabricating",Sheet1!C25,if(Sheet1!M25="Completed",Sheet1!C25,"None" which works perfectly for the individual rows, but i need it to do it for all rows (1-2500). If i do Sheet1!M2:M2500, i loose it.
I'm looking to use the Find function in order to search through a protected worksheet. Currently I can use it to search, however, I am unable to click on the results to bring me to each instant.
I'm trying to get a sheet filled in the order of the command buttons selected. It works like:
User clicks command button "A" in Sheet 1.
Macro runs that selects correct info in Sheet 2.
Info gets pasted in Sheet 3.
Repeat and Sheet 3 columns fill to the right with each command button clicked.
My issue is that I'm not sure what command to add in the macro to make it paste in the next available empty column. Right now all I can get it to do is paste over the info already there.
I am working on a spreadsheet with multiple tabs. The basic idea is that I will pull some raw data and paste it into my first tab, and then I can refresh all of the other tabs to reflect the newly imported data. I had a problem recently because when I attempted to pull the raw data because the number and order of columns had changed which messed up my cell references.
My other worksheets would contain cell references that said =table1!a1, and I would drag that formula down to have a list of all employee names for example. I would then filter data based on some of the other information in other columns. I was hoping that I could paste the newly exported data into that table and reapply the filters to view the new list of employees. How can I do this even if the order or amount of columns change? This spreadsheet will be used many times by different people so I need to make it scaleable in case the format of the exported data continues to change. I tried to change the raw data into a table and change the cell references to the column name, but it did not work when the order of the columns changed.
I have a large order spreadsheet with 3 date related columns. One for customer requested delivery date, one for factory quoted delivery date and one for actual delivery date.
I want to be able to set something up that if it gets near either the requested or quoted delivery date (by say a week), that the cell flags red so it's a visual reminder to check whether the order has been dispatched etc.
I have a column of data I would like to have reversed on the fly (use functions and not vba). I have a function that works for the first cell but I can't seem to get it to work for the rest of the column when I choose edit/Fill Down.
where: GI_Norm_list = column O GI_Norm_RevList = Column V
I copy =OFFSET(GI_Norm_list,MAX(ROW(GI_Norm_RevList))-ROW(),0) to cell V1 and it works fine. I choose edit/fill down and I get #REF for every other cell. I seem to be doing this wrong somehow.
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)
I have a lot of data to try and summarize but they are in multiple smaller tables. I wish to only extract 2 variables, 'number' and 'total' from all of my smaller tables (lots of them) so the problem looks like this, i have these tables for example where the 'total' title is in a different column depending on which of the smaller tables you are looking at:
cat 1 cat 2 cat 3 total
[Code]....
I am trying to get:
number Total 123456 30 234567 60
[Code]...
Because the number column is fixed and all of the smaller tables will all have a number in the same column maybe i can insert a column next to the number column and say "find the value where the column title is 'total' - however the location of the column title would change so not sure if this would work? I was also thinking of sorting the columns but that will not work either because of the smaller multiple tables?
I have a page of planetary symbols (astrology) in 3 columns (A,B,C ) in date order, that I'd like to copy across on the same line (date) ,to a designated column on the same sheet, in order of the ColD symbol it won't show here properly as there's no astro font, just tried it.
eg A B C D E F date Mercury 180 Venus Mercury180Venus " Venus 60 Mars Venus 60 Mars " Jupiter 30 Venus Jupiter 30 Venus
here, we have Venus copied to same line in ColE Mars " " " ColF how to sort the columns, Cols B,C & D themselves could be resorted instead into the order of the ColD symbol-- so I'd have colA, date-- the B,C,D sorted by D, into about 8 Cols to the right
