I am trying to sort a column of numbers, and some of the numbers have hyphens in them.
Excel will first sort the non-hyphenated numbers then it will sort the numbers with hyphens.
I would like to be able to sort it all together starting from the lowest first number to the last highest number. I have included an example.
I need a way to randomly generate a number( up to hundred trillion) in cell A1 and in cell B1 have the number appear in word form. Example: 129,114,023,131,453 will appear in A1 and in B1: one hundred twenty-nine trillion one hundred four-teen billion twenty-three million one hundred thirty-one thousands four hundred fifty-three The hyphens are important, commas between the numbers are not necessary. I know that for A1 I can use Randbetween() function to generate the numbers. The problem is generating the word form with the hyphens....

How can you sort item numbers, targeting only the numbers in the mock up file?
Example:
item number: GW14SO0000003
item company: GW
item location: 14SO
item counter: 0000003
How can I only sort the item by the last 7 digits "0000003"
I am looking for a VBA to sort rows which include actual numbers and text representing decomposed CTQs (or procedures in IT development)

This is the order in which the data is copied and saved from worksheets in which they are developed. Note that 3 rows (8.1.2.1 through 8.1.2.3) are below 8.1.3 (because the three come from Worksheet 8.1.2 which came after worksheet 8.1). The first four rows came from a Top Level Worksheet. I would like to see them intermixed but in proper order.
I have fractions and whole numbers in a column as per the following.
E13 = 3/4
E15 = 5
E17 = 1-1/2
I can use the formula =SUBSTITUTE(E17,"-"," ")+0 which gives the correct result of 2.5 and also correct
for E15 with the answer 5.
But I'm stumped how to get it correct for E13 where it is less than whole number.
I can use the formula =IF(E13=0,0,("0 "&E11)+0) but that won't work for the remainder of the cells.
I am having a problem with formatting a cell. I have several (into the hundreds) of items that are being inputed and I am looking for resolution with formatting. I have gotten pretty close but there are some kinks that I can't seem to work out.
The column that I am working on has numbers such as these (they aren't currently formatted)
14-12345
14-01234
14-00123
these numbers are organized by 2 digit year (XX) a hyphen (-) and then a five digit number (XXXXX) hence XX-XXXXX.
My number already have the hyphen in them and the auto format has taken some of the numbers from XXXXX to XXX if the number started with two zeros.
14-123
14-1234
Is there anyway to custom format the cell so that it will turn
This into this
14-123 14-00123
But leave this 14-12345 alone?
The closest I have gotten to an answer is this formula 00"-0"0000, but that messes up the larger numbers.
I am trying to take a list of part numbers that have an undefined number of hyphens in the part number, and remove the hyphens in order to use the VLOOKUP function.
Example part numbers are AA34-55A3-L, 444342-02, etc.
I tried searching for threads that helped on this subject but they all involved VBA, which I do not know how to use with Excel. I took VB senior year of high school and C for a semester in college, so I recognize the commands, but I have no idea how it's implemented.
Is there a [relatively simple] way to do this with Excel functions? If not, how would I implement this using VBA? I am currently using the 2003 edition.
I have a column that orders fine a-z except for the fact that it doesn't group words together with hyphens e.g.:
1.my-flies
2.myflies
3.my-fly
4.myfly
when I want it to be
1.my-flies
2.my-fly
3.myfly
4.myflies
I've a set of 10-digit numbers within a cell, which need to custom formatted in a particular format.
i.e., '1234567890' should be custom formatted to '123-456-7890' (for this i'm using the custom format 000-000-0000)
However, when I have multiple 10-digit numbers like shown in the trix (click here), i'm not able to format them because they are all comma-separated.
Do LMK if there is a workaround
I need to make a macro that will find text between "o/" and "/", remove hyphens from the text it found, and then add it to the end of the current cell contents.
I know how to add to the end of current cell contents, but cannot figure out how to grab text between certain characters or replace hyphens and replace with spaces.
I have 3 columns; A:Name, B:Debit & C:Credit. There are multiple row (approx 15,000) where I have a customer name and then a debit at one date, and a credit at another date. There is a debit to match every credit.
I would like to some how sort the sheet so that I can make sure each credit matched the debit. That way I can find what debit's don't match the credits. This is an example of how this looks. http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/n...kejoe/sort.jpg. I would like to sort it like the example on the far right (see attached picture)
I have a column of data that contains alphanumeric ID codes, some of which contain no alpha characters (i.e., Excel treats them as numbers). When I do a data sort, Excel puts all the purely numeric codes first, then the alphanumeric codes. I want to sort the numbers among the alpha codes.
Example Excel sort order:
06090
10400
28198
34078
43321
0BKV9
1C7K4
2P776
3BTW3
4U744
Desired sort order:
06090
0BKV9
10400
1C7K4
28198
2P776
34078
3BTW3
43321
4U744
I know there's a way to do this, but I've spent half an hour looking and can't find the answer. And no, manually editing each numeric entry with an apostrophe is not an option.
I have a 1x20 array with the numbers 1 thru 20 inside. I want a piece of vba code to randomly sort them. I will do this in a loop to create different "starting arrays" for an optimization code. I just need to be able to randomize the beginning. How is this done? I cant have duplicates.

I have data in column C of rows 25 to 45. The data varies in number form.
What i would like to do is have some VBA code that i can place into a macro which will sort the numbers in column C of rows 25 to 45 putting the highest number at the the top (C25). But i need to move the complete row.
Turn 6 random numbers in 2 columns in to 1 column of these numbers from small to big.with a function so i could move it.

I've got data in a table that has am induvidual "job number" assigned to each row, but this job number could have a variation such as 1000A 1000B 1000C but they may not necessarily be one after the other in the table (other job numbers may appear in between) so i need a to macro to remove all job numbers lets say that start with 1000 and paste them and the end of the table. so i end up with consecutive numbers. Can this be done? I've played around with the find funciton to loop through the column and find all relating job numbers then cut the entire row but cant quite seem to get it to work
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn a spreadsheet I have a text column with entries such as:
2012
10 Times
10.5 Times
101 Times
25 Times
A Pure Text Entry
When I sort by this column I expect to get:
10 Times
10.5 Times
101 Times
2012
25 Times
A Pure Text Entry
Instead I get the 1st order. Why? I've selected 'Sort numbers stored as text' separately so it shouldn't be treating 2012 as a number. Besides I've checked & the cell formatting is Text.
I'm looking to sort Library of Congress call numbers in Excel. The format of
the cdall numbers is:
Letters Number Period Letter Number
and after that, perhaps more periods, letters and numbers!
The problem seems to be that if I have (sorted):
C3.A40
C25.C25
C124.D45
attempting to sort them as text would list
C124.D45
C25.C25
C3.A40
Which is incorrect. I've been looking at the cell formatting features, and
they seem to only allow me to change how the data is displayed, not how Excel
thinks about the type of data.
