I am trying to find a formula that will look at the figures in four columns and then select the lowest for the calculation.
Basically what I am doing is getting venders prices and placing them in the column. The cheapest is then selected.
Showing which vender is used would be a bonus.
I have 7 values I want to sort from the lowest to highest value. These values are measured in feet so I include the sign for feet. " ' "
The values are:
9'
6'
5'
15'
12'
11'
10'
They will not sort correctly for me. Above is how they sort in descending order. Which is not correct.
I got some data as below :
...........column B..... column C
row26....... a............. 5
row27....... b............. 6
row28....... c............. 4
row29....... d............. 7
.
.
.
.
.
row38....... f............. 7
column B is static and column C will increase automatically from other formulas.
What I want is to sort column B and column C from the score in column C - highest to lowest automatically.
I have a long list with names of banks. I also have three different numbers (between 1 and 10) for every bank. Eg Bank A 5 7 4, Bank B 5 9 3. Sometimes there are not three numbers for a bank but only one or two. There are never more than three numbers though. I want to have a forth column. This column shall give me a new number based on the other numbers. The sorting shall work like this. If a bank only has one number then that number shall be presented in the forth coulmn. If there are two numbers then the lowest one shall be used. If there are three numbers then the two highest numbers shall be chosen and if they are different the lowest one of the two highest shall be presented in the forth coumn. I do not know if you can do this using normal worksheet function of if a user defined function is necessary.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a range of cells and columns with diferent numbers in the range. I would like to know what VBA code I need to write in order to select the cell with the lowest valued number in the range. Cells do not have unique values (if the MIN value is 4, there maybe 5 or 6 cells with this value) I only need to select one of them, and it doesnt matter which. If anyone could suggest how to then select the next smallest number that would also be great (if MIN is 4, to select the next smallest cell, say cell value 6).
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to select the lowest of three values in cells I21, I22 & I23. Another condition is that the formula should not select the lowest if it happens to be a zero. If i have 0, 100 & 200 I need the formula to select the 100 value.

I'm trying to make a spreadsheet to calculate my GPA for my studies. I can get everything to work fine except I want to be able to calculate an adjusted GPA based on a certain value of classes to drop.
The way it would work ideally is that I would be able to search/sort a data set and if it contained "X" number of entries then the "Y" number of lowest marks would be omitted from the AGPA calculation.
I'm having trouble designing a function/formula or scheme to sort the data range, and identify the lowest "Y" number of entries and recalculate the GPA without using them.
I have multiple rows, 1400 to be exact, that has a set of 6 numbers. I want to order them from lowest to highest in another column. Here is what I mean:
4 6 1 3 2 5 => 1 2 3 4 5 6
Is there an easy way to do this? I assume a macro would be easy, but to add a twist, can it be done if you don't use a macro?

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have a list of stores across the ABC columns and a list of items down the number rows.
I need to sort the lowest price from the A2,B2,C2 row and place it in another cell (possibly L2) along with the store name (from A1,B1....) in M2.
I'd like to have a list printed of all the "qualifying people" found in a range, and then sort their corresponding price values from highest to lowest in Columns A and B. EXAMPLE:
RANGE: D3:D20 - Numerical
RANGE: E3:E20 - Text (names)
RANGE: F3:F20 - $$$
I'd like to search column D for any values of 2 or higher. When it finds a 2 or higher, I want it to find the corresponding name in the SAME ROW in column E, and of course the corresponding price in the SAME ROW in column F. Then I would like only those qualifying people "with value of 2 or higher" to be listed in order from highest price to lowest price in Column A, and B.

Is there a code or some way for me to sort 4 columns together? I want to sort a list of employees and for each employee theres a column with their Lost Business, customer satisfaction, and two more columns. I want to sort all the columns at the same time so that the best employees overall will go to the top of the list and the worst ones will be at the bottom. Whenever I use the sorting feature it does each column independant of the others so everytime I sort a new column it just moves around the last one I sorted.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet that is populated my Concatinating data from other worksheets. Some of the results are numbers, some is data while others are blank spaces and othersare set by the concactenating default of "" when the criteria is not met. I need to sort these colums. However it seems that the default "" from the formula is not a BLANK or a ZERO or an empty cell.
Those cells will place themselves at the top of the sort. I need to eliniate them. I have copied and pasted as values but that has no effect. Ironically I can identify the cells with an if statement so what I need help with is generating a macro that will cycle thru the range of results and delete the approriate cells.
I have tried the following:
lr = Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row ' Last Row
lc = Range("A1").End(xlToRight).Column ' Last Column
For Each cell In Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(lc, lr))
cell.Select
AC = ActiveCell
If AC = "" Then Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
Next
But this does not work as it cycles top to bottom and leaves behind 1/2 the problem cells.
I need a If statement that can be used on 2 columns.
If there is a 1 in the first column I want to indicate if the 2nd column is 50% or greater with a number 1.
I have an issue with some data that I need to sort into several columns. Basically, I have a column that has data listed in each cell like this; A 567 T 1 D3. What I want to be able to do is sort that data into several columns. I am not sure how to do this at all. I have attached my data to be looked at. I have already started the process but manually, and I don't feel like having to do this manually as this is very time consuming considering I am trying to sort the data into ~1927 rows and 5 columns.

I have a potential of 5 columns of numerical data (simple number entries) which are entered manually in no particular order.
Is there any way of sorting the data so that it is presented in numerical order (smallest to largest) starting with the smallest figure at the start of column 1 up to the largest figure at the end of column 5.
I have three columns, one column is time every two seconds with data associated that time, and one is time every minute with an associated tidal height.

I am trying to 'stagger sort' multiple columns, but am having some difficulties.Ex.
Say A and B are lists of part no and C is data corresponding to column B. I have:
A B C
1 2 .
2 3 ,
4 4 ;
5 7 '
8 9 "
I want:
A B C
1 _ _
2 2 .
_ 3 ,
4 4 ;
5 _ _
_ 7 '
8 _ _
_ 9 "
(the _ are just supposed to be empty place holders, without them I have formatting issues)

How do I sort multiple columns at once? In other words, I have a chart that is a series of 1s and 2s, and I need all of the 1s to drop to the bottom, so that I can do a rudimentary chart in spreadsheet form. My chart has dozens of columns like so:
1 2 1 1 1 2 2 2 2
1 2 1 1 2 1 1 2 2
2 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
1 1 1 2 1 1 1 1 2
How do I get the entire range sorted to look like this, without having to do each column individually (hours of work)?:
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
1 2 1 2 2 2 2 2 2
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2
I have some data that is 300 rows x 43 columns.

I'm managing a World Cup Prediction League and have been trying to create a spreadsheet that will eventually feed in to a league, positioning each player in descending order. However, I would like to use three columns to determine how to position the players.
EG.
Priority 1 - Column D - Total Points (Rank from Highest to Lowest)
(if there are players with equal Total Points in column D, then)
Priority 2 - Column F - Correct Scores (Rank from Highest to Lowest
(if there are still players with equal value after Total Points and Correct Scores, then)
Priority 3 - Column F - Incorrect Scores (Lowest to Highest)

View 4 Replies View RelatedIn Column A there are randomly assigned numbers using the RANDBETWEEN function.
In Column B there are three possible values X, Y, and Z.
I want to create a sort order where "X" is always at the top but then the rest of the rows are randomly sorted by column A (Y and Z values are intermixed).
Currently I tried to use a Custom List and the value is "X" to sort first, and then a seconday sort of Column A. The problem is that column B is always sorted by X then Y then Z where I am trying to get the Y and Z values to be randomly intermixed based on the sort of the random numbers in Column A.
I know I can manually do 2 seperate sorts each time, but I would like to save a sort list to the file so I recreate that sort over and over again.

I have a spreadsheet on lets say 10 columns, now col 1 and 9 are locked so they cant be selected. Col 2-8 can be sorted by selecting them, but information in col 10 does not sort.
Question is there a way of connecting the cells in col 10 to the cell in lets say col 2, so thay when you sort the rows and cols between 2 and 8, the cells on col 10 are sorted as well As i have noticed you cant sort two differenr selections...???
