Sort Unique, Then Copy From Original List

Mar 1, 2004

I have a CSV spreadsheet full of data: many rows and many columns. I want to sort based on values in some column. Then, I want to divide my large worksheet into smaller worksheets based on these sorted column values. For instance, if column 4 was 20,000 items long and contained 6 unique values I would want to create 6 smaller spreadsheets. Each spreadsheet would still have a column 4. Now, however, all the column 4 values would be the same for a particular spreadsheet. It would be nice to have a pop-up window query me for which column to use to divide the data with, instead of hardcoding a value in (like 4).

I am trying to crank this CSV file through MATLAB and it is just too big. My PC has 1GB memory and it still craps out. I am guessing that a dozen or so smaller files will be easier for MATLAB to digest. Any help is appreciated!

For the record, I am doing the following to sort a column, then copy it to a scratch worksheet and then determine all the unique values. I have hardcoded in column lengths and would really like to know how to make these variable expressions:

Sub divide_and_conquer()

Dim lngSheet As Long
Dim strName As String

Range("A1:HR778").Sort Key1:=Range("D2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Key2:= _
Range("B2"), Order2:=xlAscending, Key3:=Range("E2"), Order3:=xlAscending _
, Header:=xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:= _
xlTopToBottom, DataOption1:=xlSortNormal, DataOption2:=xlSortNormal, _.............

Rank & Sort Table: Unique Numbers Sort Ascending, But The Non-unique Numbers Sort Descending

Oct 5, 2007

I have a list in rows where I have a ranking formula =COUNT($G$5:$G$81)-(RANK(G5,$G$5:$G$81)+ COUNTIF($G$5:G5,G5)-1)+1 When I sort the rank, ascending. All of the unique numbers sort ascending, but the non-unique numbers sort descending

ex) 1.751

Extract Unique Distinct List From Two Columns With Array Formula And Sort From A To Z

May 30, 2014

I have two lists in different columns, which are defined ranges. I want to extract them to a unique list with an array formula and at the same time sort albafetically, without duplicates, like this:

List1
List2

Final List

Audi
Ford

[Code] ....

So far, I have this formula which is working in what concerns removing duplicates and exctract a unique list. But it is not ordering alfabeticaly.

{=IFERROR(IFERROR(INDEX(List1, MATCH(0, COUNTIF($D$1:D1, List1), 0)), INDEX(List2, MATCH(0, COUNTIF($D$1:D1, List2), 0))), "")}

Concatenate Text And Numbers And Then Sort On Original Number

Jun 26, 2013

I have a data set that shows numbers for categories over time. I would like to add the data label to the numeric value and then sort the data by the original number. Is this possible?

Here's an example

A 1 2 3 4
B 5 7 4 1
C 8 0 2 1
D 3 4 9 5

I would like each column sorted independently based on the data in that column, but I want the results to have the label from column 1 concatenated with the value in the other columns such as this:

A1 C0 C2 B1
D3 A2 A3 C1
B5 D4 B4 A4
C8 B7 D9 D5

Each column is sorted by the numeric value, but has the name label from column 1 attached to it.

Highlight Entire Row When Cell Selected Without Losing Original Formats And Color Of Original Row

Sep 5, 2012

The problem is when I highlight a row with some color the original color of the row is gone, so I tried this code, and again, it's removing the original format and color for the row This is the code from McGimpsey & Associates : Excel : Highlight row with background colors

Code:
PrivateSub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Const cnNUMCOLS AsLong=256
Const cnHIGHLIGHTCOLOR AsLong=36'default lt. yellow
Static rOld As Range
Static nColorIndices(1To cnNUMCOLS)AsLong
Dim i AsLong
IfNot rOld IsNothingThen'Restore color indices

[code].....

How can I retain the range's historical color so that when I deselect the row it reverts properly?

How To Copy Sheet And Place After Original

Oct 15, 2012

I need to copy the sheet being worked on, and place it behind the original sheet.

This is going to be in a Macro enabled template that other users will be rename when they save it.

It will be activated by a button on the original worksheet other users may need to rename the worksheet before copying so I am using ActiveSheet.Copy I don't want to put the sheet after a counted sheet, because other sheets may be inserted before the one being worked on. I am not proficient at VB, I basically search for a macro that does what I need and copy it.

This is what I am working on.

Sub CopySSR()
'
' CopySSR Macro
'
'
ActiveSheet.Copy After:=Sheets(7)
End Sub

How To Copy A Worksheet, WITHOUT Linking It To The Original Workbook?

Sep 27, 2008

A simple one for you, but again my Google skills seem lacking. This must be common practice but until one knows the key combination...

I have created a summary sheet with lots of formulas which analyse other sheets in a workbook. I want to copy this summary sheet to a seperate workbook to use as a template.

Of course, the copying process always links the new (template) sheet to the original workbook it was copied from. How does one copy without forging this link? All I want are the formulas copied across totally unchanged; I really *don't* want to manually edit 50 or so formulas!

Create Copy Of Workbook Without Closing Original

Dec 3, 2007

I would like to create a copy of an open workbook.

Workbook.SaveAs would seem to be a possibility, but this closes the original workbook - I need to keep the original workbook open as well as the workbook it has been "SavedAs".

I do not want to close the first workbook and repoen it as there are instances where it may be protected and I do not want the user to have to reinput any passwords etc.

Copy Sheet To Same Workbook Without Overwriting Original

Aug 11, 2007

I have some code written to duplicate a template and rename the copy to "Working Copy".

But if I run the code more than once, it breaks as VBA tries to overwrite the sheet with the same name.

Would I would like is for the macro to check to see it already exists and duplicate the copy with some type of incremental integer. Thus the first duplicate would be Working Copy 1, and if the macro is run again, the duplicated copy would be Working Copy 2, etc.

here is what I have so far:

Sub SCButton()
Dim i As Integer 'for making Working Copy 1, 2, etc.

Sheets("SCTemplate").Select 'this file will eventually be hidden and thus the user with only see the wokring copies.
Sheets("SCTemplate").Copy After:=Sheets(4)
Sheets("SCTemplate (2)").Select
'some sort of If statement here to check for the sheets

Sheets("SCTemplate (2)").Name = "Calculation"

Save Workbook Copy To Same Path As Original

Aug 27, 2007

I'm trying to save a copy an excel file in the same directory of the original file. The code is pretty standard but it does not work if the file is stored in C: (only c: ) Is that a bug or am I doing something wrong? Anyways here is the code in case someone is interested in trying it out:

Sub CreateCopy()
ChDrive ThisWorkbook.Path
ChDir ThisWorkbook.Path
fileSaveName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename( _
fileFilter:="Excel Files (*.xls), *.xls", _
InitialFileName:="CMS_" & Format(Now(), "mm-dd-yyyy"))
If fileSaveName <> False Then
MsgBox "Backup copy saved as: " & fileSaveName
End If

Save Copy Of Workbook Without Closing Original

I want to have a user press a button on a worksheet page to save a copy of the workbook (and be able to name it and choose where to save it to) without closing or modifying the original. Note that if you "save as" manually it renames the workbook and closes the original.

Create Copy Workbook With Cell Referencing To Original?

Apr 15, 2014

At my work we are using Excel as a CMS to produce SQL scripts for insertion into a database. The data is then turned into mobile web pages. This involves multiple workbooks - 1 for each main page with the sub-pages as extra worksheets in the book.

Much of the data is duplicated so we have created master workbooks then copied them and laboriously referenced the relevant cells back to the original. That way if any data in the master is changed, all copies will change simultaneously.

This is obviously not the most efficient way of publishing web pages but we are stuck with it for now. So I am wondering if it is possible to write a VBA code to create a copy of the master and then reference all required tables in the worksheets automatically? The tables are all named ranges.

Adding Columns And Copy Function Without Messing Up Original Code?

Dec 19, 2013

I have attached a copy spread sheet. This has been working great but i have been asked to add some items and i dont want to screw up the working functions.

I now want to add incert two columns so the actual costs of a first and second service can be added to the contracts and used contracts sheets, this information allong with data from a,b,e,g h needs to be copied over into a new sheet (report sheet) which will have the budgeeds costs in column i,j starting from row 3 and finding the last row so as not to overtype so that a report can be sent showing profit/loss.

The costs will be put in at diferent times so it only need to up date a changed cell

If i just add columns will this effect the auto archive coding? Could the data be copied over to the new sheet using the original code on start up? (so customer etc copied then as cost are put in these would be added to the respective rows on each start up.

I have had to remove some of the sheets to up load this so my not work correctly, but you can see the funtion in the code

Macro To Copy Formula While Keeping Original Cell References

Feb 17, 2009

I'm trying to create a VBA macro that will allow me to copy a formula from one sheet to another whilst keeping all the original references.

E.g.

If the formula on Sheet1 is:

= sum(A1:B6)

then the copied formula on Sheet2 would read

=sum(Sheet1!A1:Sheet1!B6)

You can do this by cuting the cell, but I don't want to do this, I want to leave the original cell unchanged.

I'm sure there is some simple VBA code to do this, but I can't seem to figure it out.

Create Copy Of Active Sheet & Convert Original To Values Only

Feb 11, 2009

I need to copy the Selected Sheet (Sheet name will be different each month) on a spreadsheet and paste the copy to the left of the selected Sheet. Then I need to copy and paste values the entire sheet of the sheet that the copy was made from (the one on the right). I am very new to macros, and I tried recording and manually editing the macro with no success. The number of sheets will be different always as I will be adding this to different workbooks and also because new sheets may be added to any workbook at any time. I attached my code that I came up with, as I am not familiar with code enought to "[code]" my code.

# Of Unique Dates Per Unique List Entry

Oct 22, 2009

Each product is represented by a serial number (column A).
The can be sorted on column A from smallest to largest prior to calculating results if that helps.

The repair list contains 1 entry per spare part used, so the same serial number may occur several times.

Furthermore, a product may have been repaired on several instances - so the serial numbers can span several dates (column B).

The solution i am looking for should return the number of unique repair dates per serial number. That way i can see, how many times each product has been repaired. Results can be displayed in an individual column.

Sample list:
Serial........Repair date
207742052008-09-04
207755082008-12-17
207755212008-12-31
207755212009-01-22
207755212009-01-22
207755212009-01-22
207755212009-02-13
207755212009-07-24

Search To Find Matching Cells And Copy/transpose Adjacent Data To Original Sheet?

Nov 12, 2009

I'm trying to find a way to search a second sheet in a workbook for specific criteria outlined in a first sheet (in my attached example, from A3 downwards within the 'list of search criteria' sheet), and then to copy any secondary data found against a successful search match to the original sheet, transposed against its corresponding matched search term.

As you can see in the example, the search term 'bindi' (A4 in the 'list of search criteria' sheet) appears in the 'data' sheet 3 times - the secondary data for these occurences ('feathery', 'Fibonacci', 'glassy') is copied to the 'bindi' row on the first sheet and is offset with each copy to produce a transposed-esque effect of copy and paste.

If it's any help, there are a maximum of 9 matches for a single search term in the real document.

Thanks in advance for your help... I tried to adapt a previous solution given to me for a similar question but failed miserably. I bow humbly to your expertise!

Make Unique List From List Without Duplicates But Hold Cell And Pull Corresponding Dates

Apr 18, 2013

I have my dummy data, and I have (what I think) is how I want the data to be shown. My friend uses Google Sheets, but I prefer Excel. I am trying to convert the code because I am a stickler for excel. Typically I can convert codes some easily, but this is way beyond me.

For Column A: I want to create a list on sheet 'Setup!' based on ids!D2:D="yes". If that list has duplicate entries, I would like only the first entry to show up, but for the next entries I would like the cell to be blank. (this is important for the next step) For Column C: I want to have the corresponding dates go with the name entry. For Column D: I want to have the notes go with the corresponding date entry. (I believe I can manipulate Column C's code to do Column D myself).

I am also going to upload a data sheet, and an expected results sheet.

Create Unique List From Matrix & List Frequency Of Each Occurrence

May 23, 2009

I've searched the forum and believe this thread to be the closest to what im looking for, but its doesnt completely apply: matrix to list conversion. I have an attachment to support my questions (see attached). I have a matrix of words (strings) that contain repeating and non-repeating contents. The matrix also has spaces which are of no value. Essentially, the VBA needs to ' analyze' this matrix and create a consolidated frequency list (as shown in the file).

The matrices are HUGE and therefore some of the clumsy VBA i am using is turning out to be a bit inefficient. The file also contains formulas and such that I cannot use AutoFilter nor can I use Insert or Delete rows...so the VBA shouldnt use those either.
