Create Large Table From Smaller Tables When Columns Not In Same Order
Jul 17, 2014
I have a lot of data to try and summarize but they are in multiple smaller tables. I wish to only extract 2 variables, 'number' and 'total' from all of my smaller tables (lots of them) so the problem looks like this, i have these tables for example where the 'total' title is in a different column depending on which of the smaller tables you are looking at:
cat 1
cat 2
cat 3
total
[Code]....
I am trying to get:
number
Total
123456
30
234567
60
[Code]...
Because the number column is fixed and all of the smaller tables will all have a number in the same column maybe i can insert a column next to the number column and say "find the value where the column title is 'total' - however the location of the column title would change so not sure if this would work? I was also thinking of sorting the columns but that will not work either because of the smaller multiple tables?
I have a table that contains all my data and would like to filter it by company into their own tables that will stay up to date with the main table and then hopefully somehow calculate their investment returns (future stage). I thought Microsoft Query would work but I came across a problem see my other post MS Query returning data to excel some columns I cant sum looks like text
I'm having an issue where I want to merge lots of tables held in different spreadsheets into one large table so that I can use it in a pivot table. The attached spreadsheet demonstrates what I mean:
So there are 3 different accounts held in the first 3 tabs. These all have the same columns and format. I want to merge these automatically into the table that is in tab 4 so that I can use the pivot table also demonstrated in this tab.
What I want to happen is when I add rows to the tables in the first 3 tabs, these are automatically populated onto the 'overall' table in the 4th tab. (I'm aware I could do this manually, but for what I'm using this for these will be dozens of tables with hundreds of rows updated monthly).
Is this possible? Basically it doesn't matter how it's done, as long as i can show the information held in the pivot table each month end.
I have a data dump, on this single excel sheet their are a large number of tables, up to 100 in all, and what i need to do is extract key figures to form a summary table which i then produce stats for.
What i need is a macro or code that will automatically scan the tables, retrieve the key figures and return them in my summary table.
Attached is an example, you will see three small tables labelled Servicing query complex, servicing query simple and total.
I need to extract the blue cell, being the name of the table, the purple cell being the last figure in column c in each table (total number or processes) and the green figure being the the average turnaround. The final figure is i think the hardest to get as its the total number of figures in column c that have either a 0 or a 1 in Colum A. Note that their will be table where neither 0 or 1 will appear.
All figures are dummy figures but the table structure is correct.
I have a large order spreadsheet with 3 date related columns. One for customer requested delivery date, one for factory quoted delivery date and one for actual delivery date.
I want to be able to set something up that if it gets near either the requested or quoted delivery date (by say a week), that the cell flags red so it's a visual reminder to check whether the order has been dispatched etc.
On this forum, a script is provided to break a large Excel file into smaller 500-line files:
Split Worksheet Into Multiple Files By Every Nth Row
I copied the code and pasted it into the VBA editor in Excel 2007, but when I run the macro, it generates an error message: Runtime error 91: Object variable or With block variable not set.
The line the debugger identifies as the one with the error is this one: For lLoop = 1 To rLastCell.Row Step 500
Here is the full code from the previous thread: ...
I am trying to do is create a list from a large table (see attached). I have 2 columns (A and B) listing 'Asset' and 'Area' and then 2 rows (1 and 2) listing 'type of task' and 'task'. This forms a table with entries in the cells (from C3 onwards) denoting frequency of each task at each location, i.e. daily, monthly, 6 monthly and annual. This gives me quite a large table which is quite confusing. Can I create a formula to sort all the daily activities which will give me a list of the 4 corresponding properties 'country', 'location' (in columns A and B) and 'type of task', 'task' (in Rows 1 and 2)? Then do the same for the different frequencies populated in the table, 'monthly', '6 monthly' and 'annual' ???
I have 2 worksheets which have a table on each. I would like to create a list using data from both tables. The list I am looking to create is for an upload fom an excel planning sheet into an ERP system and requires certain data fields and a certain format. Both table have the same amount of fields and the dates across the top. On worksheet one there are material numbers on the left and dates across the top. In the list I require I would need the dates down the left in the first column, next the material number, next the quantity from table one and then the last column I would require the value from the second worksheet which is relevant to the material number and date from the first table. I have tried pivot tables but cannot get this to work and feel it may work with a lookup. I have attached an example of the data.
I have two tables (Table 1 and Table 2). Table 1 has names of all employees in my organization ('Name' column) and corresponding information in the second column ('Textinfo'). I need to create Table 3 from table 1, but only select those employees who are in my team, ie matching names in the Table 2. I also need to extract corresponding 'Textingo' column information. I tried vlookup but it did not work because if there more that one name in the table 1, vlookup confuses it (i think). Would you know what function or code to use?
I have a couple of Pivot Tables that I create each month summarising my Income and Expenditure. The only problem I have is making the columns appear in the correct order, i.e. where July is month1 through June(the following year) being month 12 to coincide with my financial year. Oddly enough last month (January) was fine, following December.
This month January and February appear in columns 1 & 2.
I have this table with some information that I need to work with. The data is simple, but it has many issues, at least for me, to be able to work with it properly.
Basically, I just need to transfer part of the data from this table to another table (in another order). I failed to use vlookup because I need more than one parameter to search the data (Date, Shift and Sector).
The problem I am having to get the codes from the source table is that the same code sometimes shows up more than once per date, per shift and per sector. It's also not following a numeric pattern. I couldn't elaborate any combination of formulas to get the info I need....
I also can't change the format of the source table, because I'm not the one who made it, it has years already, and is constantly updated day by day by a good old man who doesn't know much about computers.
I need a way to re-order an excel worksheets columns based on another worksheet.
Data is extracted from a database into excel however users can configure the columns in the initial system. to how they like This causes problems when the data is copied into an excel spreadsheet I have created as the data copied will not be in the same column order as is required.
How can i reorder the columns without physically having to cut and paste the columns to match?
I have attached a sample spreadsheet.
You will see on the spreadsheet that 'fixed columns' is the order that i require the data however 'variable columns' is not in the same order.
I have a spreadsheet that contains two input tables: Parallel and Perpendicular. Next, the user can select a group (from a drop down) which a certain entry belongs to. Now what I want is a "summary" of these entries in a table that has no blank rows and combines both Parallel and Perpendicular entries by the Group. There is no fixed number of inputs for any one group i-e the solution has to be dynamic.
Attached is a file illustrating the inputs and the required output. I would prefer a formula based approach but not against VBA based suggestions either.
how to extract names from a worksheet and put them in another by alphabetical order? There are 6 “could be more” blocks of data on Monday’s Worksheet, not all rows of each block will be filled. The idea is put the data from Monday WS in List WS without spaces and by alphabetical order. Because my English is not good enough, I attached a file with what I need.
I am trying to create a straight column list that can take the rows and columns of a table, and list only the nonblank items. The formula I am using only seems to work with one column, not multiple.
I am trying to create a Chart from a Pivot Table. I want the Chart to show my projects and present each months amounts side-by-side comparing (Plan, Actual, Forecast) data each month for the calendar year.
I am trying to figure out how to generate the pivot table showing multiple projects so that the data is grouped by month comparing (Plan, Actual, Forecast) data. Projects are listed down the Rows while months Jan-Dec are along the columns. Each month has 3 columns because the second row contains header for the data sets of Plan, Actual & Forecast. (see sample below) When I try to create a Pivot Table, It shows multiple month fields (Jan, Jan2, Jan3, Feb, Feb2, Feb3) instead of a single month.
I want to create a user input for a "LARGE" function so that I can then return the specified # of "large" items. i.e. user wants to get the top X number of users, user then enters number either into a dialog box or cell, code then looks at the number and populates a range of cells based on the input value. The current code that I am using simply refers to an existing table (r9:r30) that I then used the auto fill to copy to cells below it.
I really want to be able to just get a user dialog box going that will automatically populate both the range r9:rx (where X is the user input) and then also copy the above formula into the x number of cells below it.
it's possible to create new fields (variables/columns) on the fly (without adding them to the original data table).
For this example, assume I have a column for: job code estimated hours job code actual hours total estimated hours total actual hours
Excel has made it easy to run averages or sums for any of those columns, but what if I want to see what the average proportion for job code estimated hours/ total estimated hours? Is there an easy way to do it with pivot tables without adding a column to my database? I'm working in Excel 2007, my data table size is approximately 100 columns by 200 rows.
I created a macro by using the macro recorder. It creates some columns and formulas and does some formatting, then it is to take the data and create some pivot tables.
for some reason it gets stuck on the first pivot table. It creates it, but it wont add the first field to the table.
I have recorded a Macro to create Pivot Tables, I would like this to run in any workbook. The problem is that every time a Pivot Table is generated Excel alters the number of the table(Pivot Table options). This then does not match that in the Macro as below("PivotTable1").
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _ "Sheet1!R1C1:R37C6").CreatePivotTable TableDestination:="", TableName:= _ "PivotTable1", DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion10 ActiveSheet.PivotTableWizard TableDestination:=ActiveSheet. Cells(3, 1) ActiveSheet.Cells(3, 1).Select With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("GAME") .Orientation = xlRowField .Position = 1 End With With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("LANGUAGE") .Orientation = xlRowField .Position = 2
ive got 1 sheet,with 2 printable pages in it. 1 being the summery page and 1 being the inventory page.
what i would like to be able to do is. on the summery bit ive got a code in A22 and a number in G22 to save me time i need to create a list in the inventory bit starting at A62
im hoping it will look somthing like this
A62 = what ever the code is ( JR269 ) in A22 A63 = same code and so on until i have 26 in a list, 26 being G22
create cells which could be expanded/shrunk, to either show the first sentence or so of the essay, or the full essay. I'd need to be able to expand/collapse each cell individually, not by row or column as the tutorials I've found have shown. I'm pretty sure I've seen this done with a little +/- sign in the corner of the cell but I can't find the option. It would be a bit like on a website that have show more, show less buttons.
I need a code to sort worksheets in a huge workbook. Is this technically possible!?
The information containing the worksheet order is available in worksheet "Aux", column A contains the rank (1,2,3,...etc.), whereas column B contains the corresponding worksheet names.
Way to create order and quote numbers. I'm currently starting an order number with a "O" in front of the order number and a "Q" in front of the quote number but this presents a problem when trying to create the next consecutive number because the number has a letter at the start of it so I can't use the method plus 1. I'd just simply remove the "O" and "Q" from these numbers but I need the numbers to be unique from each other and putting the "O" or "Q" in front was the only thing I could come up with to avoid the numbers ever being identical. I often need to look up these numbers and return the values in that row so the numbers need to be unique from one another.
The information for quotes and orders is saved on separate workbooks but I'd still like the numbers to be unique from one another.
Having a letter at the start of each number or a work around for using the plus 1 method when you do have a letter at the start of the number?
I am trying to create custom sort list. It works below when I define range as A1:A79.
Sub SortWS2() Dim SortOrder As Variant Dim sheetsorder As Range Dim Ndx As Long Application. ScreenUpdating = False With Worksheets("Sort Order").Range("A1:A79") For Ndx = .Cells.Count To 1 Step -1 Worksheets(.Cells(Ndx).Value).Move before:=Worksheets(1) Next Ndx End With Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
I have created a dynamic range called sheetsorder. If I revise my code it does not work.
I need to create some trend analysis for Vehicle sales. I have attached a file with sample data.
There are few problems i am facing like description has all the vehicle details which are not in any particular order, even if some how i manage to separate these then too many variables are not letting me come to any conclusion for example make, model, mileage, year of registration color of vehicle, auction sold, sale price, cap (bench mark for pricing).
what i need to produce is which auction sells certain vehicles best or which color of certain model sells best.
so let us consider that these are the prices for X company and i have another ten tables for other 10 companies, what i need to do is to create a unified table that includes all the companies prices for all the destination depending on the Country_Code as it could be considered as a primary Key and without any duplications and to include the all the data in all the tables as some destinations and prices are not available in all the tables, so the tables contains different data, the unified table should look something like this
