VBA - Multiple Sort Rearranges Columns?
May 19, 2014
Why my vba sort re-arranges columns instead of just sorting them.
I have four columns of data: T = department, U = director, V = client, W = product.
The number of rows varies. The data needs to be sorted by T, U, V and then W. I tried to create a macro that would perform the sort in two steps:
Sub test()
With Sheet19
.Activate
.Range("T2:W" & Cells(Sheet19.Rows.Count, 20).End(xlUp).Row).Sort _
Key1:=Range("W2"), Order1:=xlAscending, _
Header:=xlNo, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlSortRows
[Code] ........
The macro sorts the data in the correct order, but it also puts column W before columns T, U and V.
So I end up with T = product, U = department, V = director, W = client.

I found this code on Ozgrid to sort all columns of a worksheet that were continuous with no gaps or spaces that works well:
Sub CopyToA()
Do While ActiveCell <> ""
Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.End(xlDown)).Cut Destination:=Range("a65535").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select
Loop
End Sub
However, I've tried to manipulate the code myself to 1) find all columns that aren't empty then 2) sort each column individually (WITHOUT expanding the sort to other columns) and 3) combining all the numbers into one seperate column. There are many posts concerning sorting but not one that addressed this particular situation.

I'm trying to figure out a way ( excel 2000) how to sort data over a range of columns.
Attached is a sheet.
So what I am looking for is this:
Bottom 10 for target 1, target 2, target 3.
I can sort them indervidually, but is there a way to sort the all?
Or would I need a agent column for each target to sort?
Or maybe there is a way to sort the data so it would work out that if they are in the bottom 10 of lets say 2 of the targets but not all 3 they would still show in the bottom 10?

I have a Name in Column A
I have a Number total(using a formula) in Column B
Each week I am copying from another source Names and Numbers, let's say in Column C and D.
I want to match the names in A with the Names in C so they are in the same row. The number in Column D needs to go with name from Column C.
Right now I am having to highlight the name and number in Column C & D and then drag it down to the row with the exact name in Column A. If there is a new name it adds it at the bottom of Column A and C.

My columns are labeled A B C D etc... If the product I am creating the table for falls into one of those categories I place a 1 in the cell. For instance, ProductA falls into the A and B categories, so column A will get a 1 and column B will get a 1. This is so I can sort all of category A's Products etc...
I am looking for a formula to put in a column that would Say what categories ProductA falls into. ie Since ProductA falls into the A and B catergories but not the C and D catergories, This final column would say something like AB, or A,B or something.
Alternatively, I could make a single column entiltled 'categories' and put something like 'A B' in ProductA's column. In this case I would need a way to sort all A's or sort all B's and not just sort all 'A B'

I need to put a worksheet together that has multiple columns that I can then sort in order (on any one columns that affects each row together) in "vehicle type".
I want to set it up so the full listing can be sorted top to bottom in colour or then click sort to sort in MAX SIZE and or again sort in SPEED. (So sort in Alpabetical order or by value).
I havent used pivot tables before and assume its the best way. I dont want to use the filter system to sort as its too clumsy for the end user.

In row 1 I want to have the names of servers, so we would have A C D E
Under each of those I want to have 4 other columns, so A would have on row 2 Start, End, Data, Time, or something like that.
Then B would have under it Start, End, Data, Time
And so on for C D ...
I would then want to sort it by the top level row, so if I had to insert B at the end I could sort it so it would be
A B C D E with all of the Start End Data and Time for the server to be moved along with it's master header.
I tried setting this up but then I went to sort it told me it could only sort if the columns were the same size, so having a merged top level A with four things under it did not work.

In the attached example file, I have two tabs: options and sets. The options tab is to be populated from a form. The sets tab is to draw data from the options tab to create teaching sets. I have managed to create an array formula that does this for me, but what I would like it to do is sort my resulting list alphabetically. For reasons that I won't go into, I need the data on the sets tab to remain in three columns: First Name, Surname and Form.
This is the array formula I am using at the moment: AliGW - Example.xlsx

I have a row of sub-headings at row 12 that require Sort Filters. My problem is that I need the filters on selected columns only. It seems that with the standard filter button I get all or nothing.

I am trying to sort each "Pct" column in descending order. Of course, I can do this manually, but I have over 100 to do, so I'd like to know how I can automate this (of course, the two columns to the left of "Pct" must move along with it).

I have a spreadsheet with multiple columns. The first column defines a "route", and the next two list "start" and "end" cities for that route. The fourth column lists the length of each route. There are only a limited number of cities, so the same entries appear in both "start" and "end" several times. I would like to use Autofilter to sort the list for every appearance of a given entry in either "start" or "end". Is there a way to make Autofilter sort mutiple columns simultaneously?
I could achieve the desired end result with Advanced Filter, but I want something with the ease-of-use and immediate update/response of Autofilter. Advanced Filter requires explanation (as well as lots of clicking and typing) whereas Autofilter is self-evident. I also want to avoid VBA Macros as they are not well-understood by the users who will use this spreadsheet (and any VBA Macro will require very specific input to work properly.) Is it possible to do what I want? Or is Advanced Filter / VBA the only way to do it?

I have the following macro that imports data from several input files and rearranges it in a master file.I want to change it so that I can use it in each of the input files. Therefore, it should look in the input file for Spreadsheet "XYZ" and rearrange it in Spreadsheet "Data".

Have a spreadsheet with 15 columns. In one of the columns is the name of the company and that column is not in alphabetical order. The city, state, zip code, business type and all the other pertinent data about that company is in the same row as the name of the company. My intent would be to put the company names in alphabetical order and keep all the company information in the same row as the company name.

I have two columns one is web addresses and the other is email addresses but the rows do not line up. I was hoping that since the second half of the email address matches the web address I could somehow sort them so that the email address column and web address column match up. Here is an example but keep in mind that this list is about 9k long and this is just a sampling so you may not see any in this example that match. Also I may have more than one email address per website.

I have dates values in 3 columns.
A1 - Header - "Holidays in XXXX'
B1 - Header - "Holidays in YYYY'
C1 - Header - "Leaves by YOU"
A2:B11 have static dates consisting of 10 dates in each column.
C2:C11 - the user may enter any date at any point of time.
I would like to auto-merge the dates in all the 3 columns (A2:C11) in a single column say D2:D31 and then the system should auto-sort the column based on dates in any one order. So as soon as the user enters a value in say cell C2, all the 10+10+1 dates should get sorted.
Also the constraint here is a user may not apply all 10 leaves at in a year. So many of the cells may have blank values.

I am using a formula but when it sorts with the data in the adjacent cells it does not update the reference cells properly.
For example here is the =SUMPRODUCT(($F$12:$WWX$12>=C1)*1,($F$12:$WWX$12<=E1)*1,ABS($F$13:$ZZ$13))
This code is located on row 13, when I do a sort function with all the data, this code is then moved to row 30, that is fine but the code changes in the following way:
=SUMPRODUCT(($F$12:$WWX$12>=C18)*1,($F$12:$WWX$12<=E18)*1,ABS($F$13:$ZZ$13))
C1 & E1 should not have changed at all, F13 & ZZ13 should have changed to F30 & ZZ30.
I am not sure if there is a way to fix the formula so it updates correctly, or these cells can stay in the same place as long as everything else sorts.
Is is possible to sort all columns except a few?

I am trying to get columns A:E on Sheet1 converted into columns A:H on Sheet2. I attached the workbook with the macro so you can see what I am talking about. I posted the same macro in the workbook below. It comes close to what I am trying to do but it only sorts based on Column E. I would like to include Columns A, B, C, and D in the sort instead of just Column E so the display will look like Sheet2.

I'm having a bit of trouble creating a macro that will sort columns in order - I've created a form that allows people to select a broad category ie) Schools, then a sub category ie) Primary or Secondary, and type in a third ie) Projects or Teachers
I'm trying to write a macro so that once they enter the form, their choices will be automatically sorted alphabetically, first by column A, then B, then C - to look like:
Schools - Primary - Projects - A
Schools - Primary - Projects - B
Schools - Primary - Projects - C
Schools - Primary - Teachers - B
Schools - Secondary - Projects - C
Schools - Secondary - Teachers - A
Schools - Secondary - Teachers - B
Schools - Secondary - Teachers - C
However I'm having the issue where if column B or C are left blank - the columns are not sorted properly, and the categories in column A get separated out..?
My code at the moment looks like:
Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Range("A1").Sort Key1:=Range("A2:A3"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:= _
xlYes, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
DataOption1:=xlSortNormal

I have the necessity to execute a macro for sorting a list of data on two columns.
More exactly, let's suppose to have this situation:
A 10/2/2008 FFFF GGGG HHH
B 01/3/2008 PPPP LLLLL NNNN
B 12/4/2008 XXXX JJJJJ PPPP
B 08/1/2008 HHHH SSSS IIIII
C 15/10/2008 AAA BBBB CCC
I need this sort:
A 10/2/2008 FFFF GGGG HHH
B 08/1/2008 HHHH SSSS IIIII
B 01/3/2008 PPPP LLLLL NNNN
B 12/4/2008 XXXX JJJJJ PPPP

Else
Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = 36
End If
Next
Range("j5").Select
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomat
this sorts range from A to G and set color to each second row how can I include S column in this range
I mean that cells in column S are moved with cells from columns A to G.

I have column A which contains a range of part numbers, and column B is an On Hand quantity of that part number.
Column C is just like column A, in that it contains the same part numbers but it has about 1,000 additional part numbers that are obsolete. Column D has the On Hand quantity for Column C.
Column A and B are old information as far as the On Hand quantities, where Column C and D are up to date On Hand. The problem is the old outdated part numbers in column C.
How do I make column A and column C match, but not lose their respective On Hand quantities? I know this sounds discombobulated, but basically I need column A's part numbers, with column D's on hand quantity.

I have some table with 3 columns: Name, Team, Players with the same name
I want to get to a 2 columns table without using "SORT" or something like that... using only formulas.
Maybe I wasn't so clear so I added a file with my problem.

I have 3 columns; A:Name, B:Debit & C:Credit. There are multiple row (approx 15,000) where I have a customer name and then a debit at one date, and a credit at another date. There is a debit to match every credit.
I would like to some how sort the sheet so that I can make sure each credit matched the debit. That way I can find what debit's don't match the credits. This is an example of how this looks. http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/n...kejoe/sort.jpg. I would like to sort it like the example on the far right (see attached picture)

Column A has customer name, columns B,C,D has corresponding sales data for
that month. Column E is blank. Column F has has customer name. Column
G,H,I has the same corresponding sales data for the next month.
Although Column A and F both have customer names, there are many changes
month over month with the addition and deletion of certain customers so the
rows do not match up exactly. Is there a quick way to have the rows match up
according to customer names in column A and F and then sort them
alpabetically?
Currently my list looks like this:
Jan Feb
A A
B C
D D
F E
H F
L G
M H
I would like it to look like this:
Jan Feb
A A
B
C
D D

I have a list of urls (about 1 million) that looks like this:
I want my results to only show this (since this is the only thing in the second file that does not contain anything from the first file):
I have tried programs designed to do this but they either (a) shorten everything down to the domain or (b) wont remove anything since the domains are part of a longer url in the second file.

I feel like this should be somewhat simple, but none of the normal methods I know seem to work. I want to set up a formula (not a basic sort, since I want it to automatically correct every time I change information) so that for each row, several columns re-sort by date.
For instance, I have the following table:
Item Type Dates
A DV 5/2/14 6/12/14 7/11/15
B DS 3/11/13 6/19/14 1/2/15
C LG 11/12/14 8/1/15 1/12/16
...
where each of the dates is in a new column, but the "Dates" title is merged between the cells
I want to be able to resort just the date columns(/cells) for each row if a new date is written. I want the dates to be in ascending order. For instance, if I go back into the worksheet and replace Item A's date 5/2/14 with 1/1/16, I want the date columns JUST FOR Item A to reshuffle/resort to be:
A DV 6/12/14 7/11/15 1/1/16
without it resorting any other rows (Items) columns.

I am trying to write a Macro to basically do a lot of redundant formatting for me and I am stuck on one part of this code. Everything else works just dandy, but I am having the darndest time getting this Macro to sort by 2 columns instead of just 1.
I did the basic first step and recorded myself sorting the datasheet by both columns in 1 sort and got the code, but the problem is that the number of rows will change day-to-day, week-to-week, and so on, so I need it to not specify a cell number as the end of the range.
While searching around, I saw a very handy little piece of VBA code that will search for a header name, which is really nice because that would make it much easier to share this Macro with my coworkers who have different reports that all have columns in different locations.
So, I have a multi-part question. I will start with the most important one:
How do I alter this to not specify A9590 and D9590 as the last cells in those ranges?
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Date XREF").Sort.SortFields.Clear
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Date XREF").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range( _
"A6:A9590"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:= _
xlSortNormal
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Date XREF").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range( _
"D6:D9590"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:= _
xlSortNormal
[code]....
Is there a way to have the Macro find where the header row is? The header rows in our reports can appear anywhere from Row 1 to Row 8 depending on how the report is set up (usually we have some information about the data, date range, etc at the top).
Dim c As Integer
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Date XREF").Range("A5").CurrentRegion
c = .Find(What:="Assignment ID", After:=.Cells(1, 1), LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False).Column
.Sort Key1:=.Cells(1, c), Order1:=xlDescending, Header:=xlYes, _
OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom
End With
