Sorting Certain Columns But Ensuring Certain Rows Remain Fixed To Their 'master Row'
Jan 22, 2009
I have created a spreadsheet which is tallying up various data. I have a number of different categories e.g. A, B, C, D and within each one of these are sub categories. I then have a tally for the number of each category and within that the number of each sub category. I then want to sort the data so that first the main category is sorted in order of highest tally to lowest. the sub categories however need to stay with their primary category. I then need to sort each sub category within the main category.
the data looks omething like this:
category tally sub cat number
A 6 A 3
B 4
C 6
B 9 A 1
B 6

i have a unique problem. I have a spreadsheet with 2 worksheets.
Worksheet A
Dlr# Dlr Name Zip Code
X123 Dane's 50266
X123 Dane's 50266
X123 Dane's 53135
X983 Andy's 50254
X983 Andy's 50254
X348 Ryan's 45678
So, this spreadsheet has some duplicate rows and some unique ones. All are needed as duplicate zips mean that the dealer is sending out multiple mailings to the same zip code.
My task is to transfer these into Worksheet B so that duplicate zips go in different columns but unique zips don't. So this is what Worksheet B will look like:
Worksheet B
Dlr# Dlr Name Drop 1 Drop 2 Drop 3
X123 Dane's 50266 50266
X123 Dane's 53135
X983 Andy's 50254 50254
X348 Ryan's 45678
My spreadsheet has over 500 dealers with over 1500 rows of data in it, so if there is an automated way to create spreadsheet B.

Im using this formula in a spreedsheet =(B$3*0,5)+(B$3+(B$4*0,5))+(B$3+B$4+(B$5*0,5))+(B$3+B$4+B$5+(B$6*0,5))+(SUM(B$7:B$28)*4)
What i want is to be able to drag this down for multiple rows but i want the formula above to only change columns i.e.
Next row gets C$3 and so on.

I am still trying to develop a macro that will copy and paste a set of formulas into a dynamic destination range. I have included a worksheet that shows what I am trying to do. Basically when using AutoFill I need the columns of the destination range to be dynamic based on the number of rows in another sheet.

How do I define a " Range Name" that is fixed? So if I insert a row above the range it has no effect on the orginal range.
IE: Range Name "MyRange" = A10:A100
I insert a new row at A4 then "MyRange" = A11:A101
I want it to stay at A10:A100.

I'm trying to produce a fixed format pivot table in Excel 2010. Normally I'd just construct a manual table using COUNTIFS, SUMIFS etc, howver, for this exercise the requirement is to be able to click on any field and have a tab pop up with the relavent data a la Pivot Table. But....I need the Pivot table to have a fixed format (which I can do with 'Preserve cell formatting on update') and to have all of the rows and columns in irrespective of whether there is data or not (i.e. if I haven't sold any apples in June, I still want the 'Apples' field to appear, just with a value of zero). I had assumed that the option I needed was 'Show items with no data on rows/columns' but these options are greyed out. I've tried right-clicking on the whole table, on individual fields and on labels but still get the same greyed out options.
Is there any way I can retain all of the rows and columns?

I have some data that is 300 rows x 43 columns.
I'd like to sort the 43 colums by using some of the rows. Is this possible using normal excel?
Alternatively is there a simple way to sort the colums in VBA?

I'm trying to sort by City first, then by Report #, but keeping the highlighted rows together. If I use the custom sort it will through my D2's at the bottom and not keep them with their city, report, and D1. How do I get them to stay together? I have attached my document example.

I am trying to sort/filter the information by columns but I need the information in each row to stay together for instance...
1 2 3 4 5
2 3 4 5 1
3 4 5 1 2
4 5 1 2 3
5 1 2 3 4
I need to sort the numbers in column 3 in ascending order or filter them but i need the entire row to move when sorted so it needs to look like this
4 5 1 2 3
5 1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4 5
2 3 4 5 1
3 4 5 1 2
I am using the list function to sort and filter the data in the columns but when i try to sort them in ascending order i get....
1 2 1 4 5
2 3 2 5 1
3 4 3 1 2
4 5 4 2 3
5 1 5 3 4
I don't know how to write formulas or VBA's or anything but am willing to try.
Is it possible to sort the data and get a result like the second set of data? and is there an easy way to make this fool proof so people that use the spreadsheet will not mess up the data?

I have hundreds of rows of data which I need to sort into headings in a new tab.
E.g Column D has about 40 names which occur many times. Column G has 4 digit numbers which are unique.
I want to create in a new tab a column for each of these 40 names, using that name as the heading and then list the 4 digit numbers unders that heading. So if the name name "John" appears 20 times in Column D, it will get a heading in the new sheet and there will be 20 unique numbers listed below it from the data in Column G.

I have a single spreadsheet with a few columns but hundreds of rows. Each row is a property reference (with other data such as address in the columns) with a type of charge in column J and the amount in column K. I'll try to replicate below ...
A B ....... J K
Prop1 Prop1Address Rent 100
Prop2 Prop2Address Rent 150
Prop3 Prop3Address Gas 70
Prop4 Prop4Address Water 60
Prop4 Prop4Address Rent 200
Prop4 Prop4Address Elec 80
Prop5 Prop5Address Service 90
I want the sheet to display a property on a single row so would look like as follows ...
A B ....... Rent Gas Water Elec Service Total
Prop1 Prop1Address 100 100
Prop2 Prop2Address 150 150
Prop3 Prop3Address 70 70
Prop4 Prop4Address 200 60 80 340
Prop5 Prop5Address 90 90

I am needing to sort individual rows horizonally (by columns) - sound simply enough, but apparently its not (unless I'm overlooking something really basic). For example, I need to sort each row (2 - 300) beginning in column B and ending in column P individually. I can do this - one at a time - using Excel's sort function, but its time consuming and this is something I need to be able to do on a regular basis.

I have used the following long but simple formula.
=SUM((B17*B14)+(C17*C14)+(D17*D14)+(E17*E14)+(F17*F14)+(G17*G14)+(H17*H14)+(I17*I14)+(J17*J14)+(K17* K14)+(L17*L14)+(M17*M14)+(N17*N14)+(O17*O14))
I need to copy it to numerous other cells. However I need the row fourteen values to remain the same while the other values change according to which row I'm copying it to e.g
=SUM((B20*B14)+(C20*C14)+(D20*D14)+(E20*E14)+(F20*F14)+(G20*G14)+(H20*H14)+(I20*I14)+(J20*J14)+(K20* K14)+(L20*L14)+(M20*M14)+(N20*N14)+(O20*O14))
Is there any way of doing this without changing the formula manually every time?

I realize that the easier resolve to this request is to use Access & we are moving to that application.
I have included a worksheet as an example.
We have a 'work in progress' (WIP) worksheet that contains 12 rows of data per job. Need to know how (or if) you can sort by the "Job #:" value while maintaining the group of information necessary for each individual job.
Not a normal sort because the values aren't entered in typical side-by-side row & column format.

I have an excel file as attached. I have two departments Digital and Industrial. Under this I have done a drop down option for different quarter for different projects.
When I open my excel file I just want to see the Quarter column under Digital but when I double click on Digital all other columns appear.
Second this is it possible to create a master filter or sorting for Quarter above the table so that if I select Q1 in it it will displays all the project and corresponding values in both Digital and Industrial.

I created an automation process where worksheets are generated. But after the sheets are generated I noticed that one of the company names is missing from the list. As I am watching the worksheets generate I can see the name quickly printing on the screen. When I use a message box to validate the data entry, the name does appear. After all is generated, the name is still missing. Does anyone know what this could be? Could it be a software malfunction?

Im new to excel and problem regarding the sumproduct function.
I have three columns in my sheet1, column A and column B contain 1000 numbers.
Hence, column A goes from A1 to A1000 and column B from B1 to B1000.
In the first row of column C, i want to use sumproduct on A1:A5 with B1:B5.
My problem arises when I want to drag the formula down, in the second row of column C I want
to use sumproduct on A6:A10 with B6:B10 but the formula uses A2:A6 with B2:B6.
Is there a way to fix the ranges when I am using sumprodct so it takes "fixed" ranges like every fifth,
A1:A5 with B1:B5 , A6:A10 with B6:B10, A11:A15 with B11:B15 and so on.

I have 5 columns with data in each
I want to create a 6th column that looks to the columns on the left with data in ti and concatenates all data in the 5 columns and puts it into one cell in the 6th column however put a space between each break of data so that it can be distinguished which bit of data was in what column previously.
The challenge is the new 6th column can only contain 30 characters - When it exceeds 30 characters then create a 7th column and put the rest of data in the 7th column, again the 7th column can only have 30 characters so if exceeds this then put the remaining characters in a 8th column
There will never be more than a total of 90 characters in the original 5 columns so there will only need to be scope for a maximum of 3 additional columns
So for example
Column A had two words in it that totaled 20 characters (the space between the two words is also counted as a character)
Column B had two words in it that totaled 20 characters (the space between the two words is also counted as a character)
Column C had a word that contained 10 characters
Column D had a word that contained 5 characters
Column E had a word that contained 10 characters
Then the result would be
Column F would only have the data originally held in Column A (because it can't include Column B's data as this would exceed the 30 characters)
Column G would have data that was originally held in column B and column C - with a space between B and C data
Column H would have data that was originally held C, D and E - with a space between C, D and E data
Another point to consider is if in one of the orginal 5 columns had say 3 words in it and lets say the 3rd word is the word that exceeds the 30 character limit, then the whole of the third word is to be carried oved to the next new column, I can't have words cut in hlaf with one half in Column 'F' and the other half in Column 'H' for example.

I need the different categories to be separated into separate columns, but they do not appear to be separated by anything useful or a fixed width. Not only that, but the last few columns were moved onto a second line when I copied the data into Excel for some reason. The data originally came over in an Adobe Acrobat file. This is what the final product should look like: ....

I'm trying to autofill "vertically" in a spreadsheet using a formula which loads value from a different sheet.
Lets say I have cell (A1 for example) ='2013'!A39
Now I want to fill A2-A30 in a way that the formula updates to ='2013'!B39, ='2013'!C39, ='2013'!D39...and so on
I've tried using ='2013'!A$39, but this only copies the formula as it is. When I try to autofill cell A2-A30, the formula still is ='2013!A$39
Is this possible to do?

I'm struggling with getting my Excel worksheet to fit nicely on the pg for printing to .pdf. I could tinker with column widths manually to work this out for a printed report. But I need to print a couple hundred reports with varying column widths, so I need a vba solution.
The context is that I'm using vba to process two sets of interlinked data on a worksheet. I only want to print one set of data, and keep the second set out of the print view. To do this, I'm keeping the first set of data in columns 1 to 10 and the second set of data in columsn 21 to 30. I set the print range to only include columns 1 to 10.
This works fine for keeping the second set of data off the printed pg. The problem is that there is always a gap between the end of column 10 and the maximum width of the printed pg. Given the formatting of the report, this doesn't look very good.
I know that page setup offers the "fit to" option. This would work if I wanted to fit everything on the worksheet on the pg, but I don't. I just want to fit columns 1 to 10 to the pg. Is there a way to do this, allowing for varying widths in columns 1 to 10? Is there a way to do it via vba?

I have a long (190,000) list of customer data, all in Column A (unfortunately with blank rows among it, but working now to fix that).
Down the column, individual customers are bookended by a "adf" and a "/adf". (these have open and close brackets like HTML code, but I cannot reproduce them in this forum).
For each customer, I need to find the rows that begin with (brackets spelled out since I do not know how to show them):
1. [open bracket] vehicle status
2. name part=3D"first"[close bracket]
3. [open bracket]name part=3D"last"[close bracket]
4. [open bracket]email[close bracket]
5.[open bracket]phone time=3D
6.[open bracket] name part=3D
And transpose only those rows it into columns.There is a dynamic number of rows for each customer, so there's no way to simply count and transpose, as the columns would all be mis-entered.Somehow it needs to recognize those 6 row items, and transpose those values only, with the and the only telltale of a start and finish of a specific customer.
EDIT: How about a macro to delete all rows except those that contain those partial values above?

However, when I apply the macro, the result of zeros in front of figures disappear since the format of value in splitted column doesn't predefined as text
e.g. sample text to split to column:

when running below macro; result shows:

I am working on creating a medical master database. I have a master sheet with a huge number of columns. I have a couple of guys working with me, and they have their own sheets in the workbook.
So here is what I would like to do: anytime one of the guys enters data into his respective worksheet, I want the data to be copied over to the master sheet in a new entry.
The columns among the worksheets are different, and I would like the data to automatically sort in the appropriate column on the master sheet when it is copied.
I have attached a copy of the workbook.
I have included an example of what I would like to see. For example, if Charles puts in an entry in his worksheet, a new entry is created on the master sheet with the information from Charles' sheet sorted in the appropriate columns.

I'd like to import column A,E, H, and I in different 11 workbooks in MYdocument folder to one Master workbook.
I'd like to import 'Name' and ' ID' in cell E3 and C3 in each different 11 workbooks to cell A1 and cell B1 in Master workbook.
Starting row for Column A,E,H and I are 'row 6' because row1 thru 5 are title, name, and comments.
In the Sheet 1 in Master workbook will be the Main sheet for command buttons, so I want to import after Sheet1 in Master workbook.
I want to import each worksheet , not stacked type. I got 11 workbooks in my document right now, but numbers are always changing. I also import in row 2 in Master workbook because I need to add title or button on row 1 in Master workbook.
How can I import only selected columns from row 6 into row 2 in master workbook?
