I am trying to compare the frequency of occurrence of multiple unique values within a data set and graph the results as a pareto. I have the formulas working to identify and count the occurrences, and the chart is designed and displaying the data, however I cannot get the graph to display in descending order.
I am unable to sort the data because it is generated from a series of formulas, the returned values of which cannot be sorted. (its hard to describe, see the attached workbook)
I would like to know how I can display the graph so that it shows the bars (primary axis) in descending order (highest value to left, lowest to right) since I cannot sort the data. i.e. For the attached workbook, I want the bars to display in descending number of occurrences: 81,15,5,5,3,3,2,2.
I use this formula, but it only works if I provide the first name on the list, otherwise I get 0 in all rows, instead of the unique values in alphabetical order.

My input data for Pivot table has a column named "Month". The month values are like April 07, April 08, Nov07 in random order for period between Jan 07 to Aug 08.
When I create a pivot Table, this column is sorted alphabetically (April 07 is followed by April 08) but I need it to be sorted in the ascending order with respect to month (April 07 is followed by May 07).
I further use this data to plot a Pivot Chart. There is another issue here. I want to use separate colors for each series. I do not know how to achieve above 2 things.
I looked at threads realted to printing but wasn ot able to find something similar to what I need. So here is my problem:
I have a file with more than 100 worksheets (each sheet contains the invoice for one store). I would like to create a macro that would enable me to determine the order in which worksheets would be printed. How to do it?
Idea #1: the printing order would be based on the value in cell L1 that would contain the route number for each store. Stores belonging to the same delivery route will have the same value in L1. So, the macro should first print all sheets with 1 in cell L1, then print all sheets with 2 in cell L1 and so on...
Idea #2: Creating a separate data sheet with the list of all stores and their corresponding route number. Let's say info is contained in range A1:B150, where Column A contains the name of the stores and column B contains the route numbers. The macro then should look at that list to determine the printing order of the subsequent worksheets (the name of the store in column A would be the same as the name of the worksheet corresponding to that store).
Idea #3: sorting my 150 worksheets manually. It does not solve my problem fully, though, because stores do not always belong to the same route. So the manual sorting should be carried out daily and would not save time at all.
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 data set of about 600 records. I want to be able to extract the Top 10% of the records and get rid of the other 90% - the values can change over time, so I always want to start with the full 600 records.
I am aware of the conditional formatting function that will identify the Top 10%, but I was looking for VBA language (does not have to be VBA - just automated), that calculated the 10% subset and either moved it to a different sheet, OR deleted the bottom 90% - in either instance the result being just the list of the top 10% of the data set.
I have a list of entries on one sheet. This sheet contains part numbers in random order. I would like to draw out the part numbers onto a new sheet, with no repeats and in numerical order. I want this to be done automatically without using a sort command. Also, I would like to avoid VBA if possible.
I have an issue sorting values. i can get the numbers together and sorted, but want to keep a name associated with the values being sorted. so when the values are sorted, and they change the name associated with each value moves with it. Its acutally a first-tenth place in a nba fantasy league.
Does anyone know of an Excel object class that you can put objects into with a key and the process it in key-sorted order? If not, is there a library that I can reference to get such a thing?
Is there a way to run a macro after a worksheet is sorted (after sort event)?
Scenario: I have a several hyperlinks that use defined names to jump to locations throughout a worksheet. When the sheet is sorted the defined names don't update to the new cell locations (Microsoft KB 58245). I've written a subroutine that fixes the defined names but I don't know how to have the fix run automatically.
I prefer not to use Worksheet_Change without other conditions to prevent a lot of unnecessary calls to repair subroutine.
I have 2 Columns in the "RawData" sheet in the file attached. One says the Campaign No, and the other says the Site Code. One Campaign, will always never have duplicate Site Code.
I want to organize the data in the following fashion (as seen in the "Format" Sheet). I wish to acquire the trends of grouping of Site Codes, meaning which site (by Site code) is sold together, to understand the hottest combinations.
The idea is to see which Site Code sells more with a particular Campaign.
As you can see in the attached file, I'd like to know how many times a particular Sites (by Site Code) was sold with the other. As you can imagine, I have about 300 Campaigns, but have about 1500 different Sites codes to deal with, this activity will save me hours of time.

Still i could manage with Sorting of data. Now i have following data

I have an Excel sheet with a list of data, which is likely to change frequently and has to remain in sorted order.
Requiring that users of the spreadsheet maintain the data in this way (i.e. sort it every time it changes) is a really bad solution and I'd rather not use a macro if I can avoid it (too much stuff can go wrong).
Is there a good way of doing this? At the moment, I've implemented merge-sort within a sheet, which works, but is a heavyweight solution, taking 6 columns per merge-sort iteration (so 60 columns to sort 1024 rows, 96 columns to sort 65536 rows). I could try to compact it, but my head was starting to implode programming it even with as few as 6 columns.
There must be a better way of getting Excel to maintain an automatically sorted list.
if i have a column of number that is not sorted(it cannot be sorted due to other requirements), is it possible to find the cell that reflects the nearest number that i want to look up?
How can I check to see if this range is sorted with vba?
I have searched but havent found anything for strings.
I can only think of adding each cell to an array, creating a copy array, sorting the copy array and then comparing the two arrays. I want it to return TRUE, FALSE or 1, 0
When clicking on the sorting button of filtered data near the top of a field, I can select different things to show or not show. In a date field, it starts to arrange things by year, which can be expanded to months, which can further expand to show individual days. All well and good.
But many of my dates do not show up in the year categories. They are instead shown below the years as individual dates. Furthermore, sorting the date field in question is imperfect for these dates. Here is an example where some dates from april are jammed inbetween others:
These jammed dates are some of the same ones that are orphaned outside the year groupings. All the dates have the same date cell type. No other filters are applied.
I am getting a debugging error when I try to highlight the first row of a column that is sorted. the error occurs on the "if .autofiltermode then" line. the code does highlighting like I want but is giving me a run time error.
HTML Code: Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate() ColorAutoFilter End Sub
I have a matrix of mixed numbers (going across many columns and rows) in Sheet1. They are a mix of positive and negative numbers, In Sheet2 I need 2 lists to be automatically displayed, taken from the data in Sheet1.
The first list (column) is for positive numbers only, the second is for negative numbers.
There is one filter: only numbers over a specified value (for the positive list) must be used from the data, and only numbers under a specified value (for the negative list) must be used from the data. The 2 filters can be stored in any cells in Sheet2 (the worksheet where the lists will be), lets say, for ease of use, A1 and B1.
But here's the tricky part: I need the location reference of each number in the matrix displayed next to the number in the list!!! Eg: in the matrix, I have names running down the left (A2 to A25) and the same names in the same order running across the top (B1 to Y1) - just like any basic matrix! If A6 is called "John" and L1 is called "Pete" and their value (at cell L6) is 10, then I need them to be displayed in the "positive list" amongst the others (sorted automatically into numerical order) with the words "John" in the cell to the right of the score, and "Pete" in the one after that to the right: so it will look like:
A2 B2 C2 10 John Pete
(remember that these 2 lists are on Sheet2, not on the matrix worsheet! A1 and B1 contain the 2 filters for the positive and negative lists).
Of course, this must only happen if the filter in A1 (the positive filter) is 10 or under. If it was anything above 10, then this one would not make the list.
As for duplicates in the matrix coming up twice in the lists, that's not a problem this wont matter! It's ok for the lists to have constant duplicates displayed eg: 10 John Pete will also have next to it 10 Pete John.
I Currently have some VBA sourced through here which adds to the end of the first instance of a value in column A the values in column's B and C and repeats adding values in new cells for B and C until the value in column A changes.
Now I need to transfer this sorted data to another worksheet (destination.xls) and add it by the reference number in column A to the end of the row with the same reference number.
I have experimented with vlookup with limited success and am looking for a more robust solution.
The data from the spreadsheet called source.xls appears starting in column EE. This will be the same starting position for all rows I have coloured the data for ease of recognition purposes only.
I have attached 2 sheets as examples of what I am trying to achieve.
I am currently using a pivot to return and populate the required data but this does not refresh correctly and returns zero values every time this report is refreshed. I am therefore hoping that there is a way to calculate this using formulas .
The following applies: The attached document has 2 tabs: Date AND Report The Data tab feeds the report tab The REPORT tab has 2 reports in it but doing the first one then I should be able to do the second one. If you look at the first table you will see the data that needs to be populated. I have added a highlighted (in YELLOW) row at the bottom of this table which shows you which columns populate what column
Requirement: I am after something that will populate this table in a descending order - IE: the figures in the DATA tab Column BE should be sorted from highest to lowest. It must be filtered to the top 30 results only and then all the other columns must be populated.
Column H in the REPORT tab should be formatted to [h]:mm Column F & G in the REPORT tab should be formatted to dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm
I am looking for a way to get a weighted average to work without the need of helper columns, when my weights are stored in one range, and the actual values are stored in another range, but might not be sorted in the same fashion.
For example; range 1 might be:
Weight Homework 120% Pre-Exam 30% Exam 50%
But the range for student's scores might be in a slightly different order:
Scores Exam 90 Pre-Exam 72 Homework 1 81
(Note that this is a greatly simplified example and that just resorting would be impractical).
