Sort Command - Custom Order Or Sort Ascending Or Descending

Oct 8, 2006

Is it possible to make excel sort ascending or descending but from mid way through alphabet and then loop through the alphabet again. for example. If Cell A1 had "A" in, it would sort as normal.

Cell A1 = A
Cell A2 = B
Cell A3 = C
Cell A4 = D
Cell A5 = E

If Cell A1 had "C" in, it would sort from "C" through the alphabet and then loop to the start of the alphabet as shown below.

Cell A1 = C
Cell A2 = D
Cell A3 = E
Cell A4 = A
Cell A5 = B

Automatic Sort By Descending Order?

Mar 15, 2014

Don't know if macro is better, but I would like to try it with function

I have 2 sheets.

Sheet 1
Column A: Name
Column B: Points

Exemple:
Name Points
Mary 40
Johnny 20
Erick 60
Ralph 30

I want Sheet 2 to get data from Sheet 1 and sort by descending order automatically.

Then it should be

Sheet 2

Name Points
Erick 60
Mary 40
Ralph 30
Johnny 20

I don't want to do it manually every time I change some value; I want it to do automatically; so if I change, for example, Erick's points from 60 to 10 in Sheet 1, Erick should appear on the last place in Sheet 2, with his new value (10)

Automatically Sort In Descending Order

Jun 17, 2009

I'm using a table with columns from A to F and an unlimited number of rows. Note that there is a title at the top of each column.
-I'd like my datas in column F to be automatically sorted in descending order from top to bottom when I hit the enter key or when the number is entered in last column (column F).
-the the entire row of data needs to be sorted according to the sorting criteria of column F ( datas entered need to stay on the same row)
-the macro should validate that the number value entered in column F is the same as the number value entered in column A. (to make sure that there was no typing mistake)
-Result in column D must be the difference between the corresponding value in column B and C (B-C=D)
*The next couple of constraints are not absolutely required, i'd like to have them only if it's possible to add constraints with filling color:
-Whenever there is no value entered in column C on a specific row I'd like the entire row to be colored in yellow (fill color)
-IF a number is entered in column C, and that the result of B-C in column D is not equal to zero, I'd like this specific row to be filled in Red.
-when all the values are entered in a row from column A to F and that the result of B minus C is equal to Zero in column D, i'd like this specific row to be filled in a green color.
***in other words, the datas in each rows from column A to F will be entered on 2 occasions; on the first time, only the datas in column A,B and F will be entered (so basically after entering this set of values the row should be filled in yellow. the second time, the remaining values will be added to the rows, so at this time A,B,C,D,E and F will all be entered. when this is done there will be two options
1-the value in column D is equal to Zero then the entire row should be filled in green or
2-the value in column D is'nt equal to zero, then this specific row should be filled in red.

Keep in mind that the datas of a row should be automatically sorted only when the value in column F is entered or when the enter key is hitted to add a new row.

Disable Sort Ascending/Descending

Apr 13, 2006

Is it possible to allow Autofilter but disallow Sort Ascending/ Descending for an excel list in sheet? I have data set up as an Excel List (Excel 2003, with Autofilter turned on) so all formulas, formatting etc copy down when a new row of data is added, however if I just Protect worksheet and disallow Sorting, the List features don't work. I also tried putting the following in the Worksheet Activate event

ActiveSheet.Protect AllowSorting:=False

But this doesn't seem to disable the Sort option in the Autofilter, only the Data Sort function.

Sort Ascending/Descending Based On Criteria

Aug 2, 2006

I have an Overview worksheet that is pulling info from all other sheets in the workbook.

What I want to do is order that info in ascending order depending on the worksheet name.

So I want all the worksheet names that start with 'AB' say sorted in ascending order and all worksheets that start with 'BC' in ascending order.

Now this I have at present working by a macro I created which once the info is loaded onto the sheet I just selected the info and ordered it in ascending order. The thing is though the next time I enter this Overview sheet I might have an extra worksheet that starts with 'AB' and this will not be included in the order, I will have to adjust it everytime so I need a more automatic ordering process.

VLookup Random Numbers - Sort Range In Descending Order And Return Relevant Value From Column

Aug 27, 2012

I have a column (B) of randomly generated numbers 1-14, and am using this formula range to sort in descending order and return the relevant value from column (c).

=VLOOKUP(LARGE(B3:B20,1),B3:C20,2,) to =VLOOKUP(LARGE(B3:B20,14),B3:C20,2,)

Works great, except when a number is duplicated, (E.G. 14,13,13,12,11,10,10,9,8 etc). It then returns the first value from(C) repeated, and not the value from the second and subsequent duplicated reference numbers.

Pull Out Earliest And Latest Dates Associated With Text String In Workbook

Feb 7, 2014

I'm trying to pull out the earliest and latest dates associated with a text string in a workbook.

Min Max dates example.xlsx

i.e. in this example, I want one column to display the earliest date associated with DU 145, and the next column to display the latest.

From what I understand, I need an array formula to do this and have written the following, which works:

=MIN(IF($A$2:$A$6=A2,$B$2:$B$6))
(confirmed with CSE) - and the same for MAX.

Where I'm struggling is that DU 145 may be entered in the workbook as DU145, DU 145 or DU-145 and I need to take all of them into account. I tried:

=MIN(IF($A$2:$A$6="du*145",$B$2:$B$6))

As this works in a COUNTIF formula in the same sheet. But this just returns a date of 00/01/1900. I'm new to array formulae & haven't really worked them out yet. Is there a way to do this? I assume it's something to do with the way I'm entering text as removing the wildcard * makes no difference.

Automatically Select Most Latest File Name From Similar Names Ending With Dates

May 25, 2014

I need to use the VLOOKUP feature from the most latest files, I am using VLOOKUP in VBA code which is working fine, however the problem is that the files from where I do VLOOKUP are added randomly in a week.

Ex:

There are 2 Files, 1st File where the data would be looked up from the 2nd File, Now the 2nd File has names like this "Offline Data as on 10th May 14", "Offline Data as on 13th May 14", "Offline Data as on 23rd May 14", etc.

Now these files are send by another department, and each time the most recent data has to be searched from these files.. All of these files have to be maintained separately for record purposes.

Hence in the VLOOKUP, Lookup file keeps on changing...so is it possible to make a code in such a way that the code picks up the most recent file for reference, from the above example we would need to pull the data from the most latest file which is "Offline Data as on 23rd May 14" , if any other file is added in that folder more recent than the one mentioned than the code should automatically link it to that file.

I have managed to codify the lookup but due to this filenames being changed always I have to do this manually..as this has to be done at several columns in several sheets its extremely time-consuming.

So, logic code to pick the most recent date which is embedded in the filename...

Sorts Data By Column In Descending Order

Mar 26, 2012

I have a macro built that sorts my data by column in descending order depending on what column of information is selected from the drop down menu.

However I need the macro to sort column F in ascending order, and continue to sort the other colulmns in descending order when selected.

I can't get my macro to switch the sort from descending to ascending order for this one column. Looking to see if this is possible, and if so what macro formula I would use.

Here is what the macro i am currently using:

Sub ddSort_Click()
Dim iDdSortVal As Integer
Dim CurrSheet As String
Dim lFirstSectionRow As Long
Dim lLastSectionRow As Long
Dim strCol As String
Dim lRptHeaderRow As Long
Dim iRptMeasColumn As Integer

CurrSheet = ActiveSheet.Name

Sort Dates That Include Non Valid Dates

Sep 14, 2006

I've searched the forum prior to posting, but have not found exactly what I need and am not familiar enough with macro code to modify based on an existing post.

Here's what I'd like to do: I have a worksheet with columns "A" through "J" which contain production scheduling information. Column "H" contains an estimated completion date - I need a macro to sort the rows base on the completion dates (in ascending order) when I request the macro to run - I'm attaching the macro to a button control. One concern is, the column contains some excel default dates of 1/0/1900 that I don't want to include in the sort because they should stay at the bottom of the sheet, rather than at the top. Any rows with the 1/0/1900 don't yet contain information, only the default date based on the calculations.

Return Corresponding Data To Latest Date

Jan 18, 2008

I am trying to use a function to search for a particluar value (e.g., ssn) in one column and return the "InDate" in another column. I thought this would be easy, but I'm having considerable trouble. When I do manage to get a value returned, it's the wrong value. I need to return the most recent "InDate" for the ssn that I search for. The button on the " Lookup" sheet is to sort the InDate column descending so that the Excel function will start with the most recent date when it searches. I've tried Lookup and and just about every other similar function with no luck. I originally wanted to search for a ssn and return the information for the last 5-10 most recent visits, but gave up on that long ago.

Sort The Dates

Mar 17, 2008

I currently have 5 dates listed, and formatted as dates. I update this list so under the 5th date I will add a sixth date. The next thing I want to do is sort these dates from newest to oldest.

Problem #1- It is not sorting these in the correct order. Example:

3-11-08(appears as) 2008-03-11(Written in box up top)
12-5-08
3-17-08
2-25-08
1-13-08
1-10-08

Probelm #2- sometimes the dates will not even give me the option of sorting from newest to oldest.

Combine Spreadsheets And Update With Latest Data

Dec 29, 2012

I have two very large spread sheets that are worked on individually. Because of there size, sharing them causes issues and lock-ups (excel not reasoning) and lengthy download time.

They are now worked on individually with two separate file names.

I am trying to find a way, even a program, to at the end of each period, combine the files and update the data that would have been input.

I have attached examples of what might take place.

Example 1

A
B
C
D
E
F

[Code]...

Example 2

A
B
C
D
E
F

[Code]...

As can be seen, Example 1 has had information added to Columns A, B and C, whereas Example two has had info added to Columns D,E and F. Also, the data in Example 1 (E,3 and F,3) has been updated to reflect No with F,3 changing to "Blank"

The result is to combine both spread sheets and update the added / amended data into one spread sheet that shows an updated position as follows.

A
B
C
D
E
F

[Code]...

Sort Dates Seen As Text

May 25, 2007

{url}

please see the spreadsheet, data are downloaded in bloomberg (I have broken the links already). I have some macro written to perform sort on every column by clicking heading in row 1,

I know excel usually stores the date in a number format but I can't change the date format here since data is downloaded in Bloomberg (I have also asked Bloomberg, format is fixed). But if I select the whole sheet and go to data -> sort, Redemption date as ascending then select "sort anything looks like number as a number", it works. I don't wanna do in this way, I would like the clicking label to sort, so in macro, I think I need to firstly convert the date into an integer then perform the sort, how can I amend the coding to accomodate this?
