Sorting Rows Of Data Into Columns With Headings
Aug 30, 2013
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 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.

How do I get the effect of hiding unused rows/column in the sheet, including headings, while the parts in use still display headings?
The pick below explains what I mean. [IMG][/IMG]

I've got a few worksheets that have staff names on Col A. And these names are under sub headings of what position they work in (Foremen, Operatives etc..).
Before I had access to them, the names were not in order, now I've change it to A-Z, for each staff under their position.
I know you can make your own custom order list, so the list goes top to bottom : Supervisor, Formen, Operative, Office.
What I sometimes need to do is sort Col B or C. But is am unable to sort it back to it's original state
Attached is an example of how I would like my spreadsheets to look. But is there a way to use Sort & Filter so it sorts the entire table by position, keeping the correct name under the correct position heading.

I know Excel is supposed to guess if there is a heading row or not when you're manually sorting a group of columns. But, more often than not it seems, it guesses incorrectly, forcing me to go through the multiple steps of the "Custom Sort" menu. Most of the manual sorting I do does have a Header row.
Is there a default setting somewhere to force the sort to always assume there is a Header row? I can't find any.

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 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 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 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 need help with either a formula or macro for sorting data into specific columns. I need the entries under the headings Ar,Bj... to be sorted into the correct columns. To add to the problem, the data may not be exactly the same as the heading.
Attached is an simple example of a spreadsheet where the top is the original and the bottom is what I need the final outcome to be. The data is pasted from a different spreadsheet and will be changing each time.

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...???

I have to filter data in one column and have it align with data in another column. I need to do this because I have hundreds of product descriptions that I need to match up with the appropriate images. All of the image names will be like the first row (1244-?????.jpg) The problem I am running into the text data I am downloading is not matching up with the images. I usually have more images than text and sometimes I will have text that has no corresponding image.

This is driving me crazy. I have a sheet with 5 columns, and 13k + rows of data.
I attached an example of how its is formatted...
The problem is, in column A "DBA" and D, "Address", some of the data contain 2 rows, and others contain 3 rows.
When I try to sort by DATE, for example, it ends up splitting up the addresses alphabetically...
How can I sort this data, by any of the columns, while still keeping the ADDRESS together?
I hope this makes sense to someone because it is driving me NUTS.

I've attached the spreadsheet I want to use. As you can see there are three sets of "bootcamper name" and "time" columns
I wanted to know how I can sort by name or time if I were fill in data that started from A7 and B7 all the way down to A43 and B43 then restarts at C7 and D7 all the way down to let's sat C30 and D30
If I wanted to list all the data alphabetically ( or by time ) from A7 and B7 all the way down to C30 and D30, how can I do that?

I am working on a new budget spreadsheet that I am creating. I want to accurately calculate credit card expenses. As everyone who has a credit card knows, charges made this month are not due to be paid until next month. To make matters more complex, charges made from (for example) January 20 until February 19 are not due to be paid until March 20. With that in mind, I created a spreadsheet with a different tab for each month. Each tab has a place to put in all expenses. Here is an example:
date
Category
Expenses
Remarks
[Code].....
Obviously, The above example is from January. IN the February tab, I want to calculate everything in the "Expense" column that has a date in the "Date" Column before Jan 20 and where it says "Kohls - Frank" in the Category column. Of course, in the March tab, I would need to grab all of the "Kohls - Frank" expenses after Jan 20 from the January tab, and everything before Feb 20 from the February tab.
I figured out how to add up everything with the following formula: =SUMIF(Jan!A:A,("<="&DATE(2013,1,20)&E32),Jan!C:C) How can I filter on the Category tab?

I have two rows of data that I need in one row and then sorted, it is possible that the data will be difffering lengths depending on input conditions. I also need the option to sort it either ascending or descending. The data in the two separate rows depend on other parts of the system and in turn this data will be used in another part. So I need it sorted automatically. I have tried ranking the data and then sorting it by rank but for some reason this does not appear to be working.

I have one worksheet which acts like a data dump (actuals) where data is just pasted in. This worksheet is sorted and edited on a continues basis. I need this data to be sorted into their respective coded worksheets (110, 120, 130).
I would like a function in Worksheet 110, 120, 130 that captures the data for that 'code'. Now the issue is that much of the data is non-unique, dates, codes, accounts may sometimes be duplicated however i still want to display the entries separately in their respective coded worksheets. (I had a solution using column numbers however it isn't viable because the data gets resorted often)....

I have sets of data (A1....F50000 or more) that I need to sort out based on the cell value in column F. Based on the cell value I would like the info on the row (A to F) put into a different sheet. There would be 8 different sheets and each sheet would include 1 to 50 different sorts from column F.
The macro could start with one material sort each and I could fill in the rest of the sorts. The 8 different materials (one for each sheet to start) could be "34b2p""ptop27""pdw19""p58leg""ppdpts""mirror""Pdoor""bent""p4545".

The attached workbook has a fragment of a table . The column heads are letters representing job nos. The first row is of numbers which will always be multiples of 1000. Subsequent rows are the factors of each number by each number.
My problem is how to structure the columns of the second table so that if a number has a factor of 1 there is one copy of that column head. if the number has a factor of 2 then there are 2 copies of the head, and so on.
The table can vary in size but the first row of each column will always be an integral number of 1000's (e.g. never 1250).
I have not been able to attach the workbook as "ADDFILES" is not visible in the download screen, I hope the above description will be enough.

I have an excel file with multiple sites and I need to delete empty rows base on two repeated words in column A. Empty Rows need to be deleted between the cells in column A called Litter and Community. There are other empty rows that need to stay in so only rows between "litter" followed by "community".

Trying to freeze top 2 rows as headings.
I select top two rows then
Under VIEW / FREEZE FRAMES I select Freeze ... according to current selection.
But what freezes are rows 1-15 and colums A-N, which I never selected.
How do I get Excel to freeze just the top 2 rows?

Inserting Rows and Headings. Is it possible to automatically insert Rows and Headings based on the Cell value of a particular column ? For example column B consists of a field called, 'Assigned Group'. Column A consists of a field called, 'Fault description'. Column A needs to have a heading depending on the value of Column B. One row also needs to be inserted above the heading.

I am asking if it is possible to delete filtered rows? With code.
What I mean is after setting a filter, then deleting all shown rows except row 1, (Titles)
I did a search but nobody seams to have asked this yet, so recorded it, but that did not seam to enlighten me much either.
Or is this the wrong approach, should I delete using a loop, using the filtered criteria as to say delete row, or move on to the next row?, this would be far more time consuming as when all can be deleted at once if possible of corse.
