I want to be able to download bank transactions in a csv file and have excel sort them according to rules I could define.
The csv file is organized as one transaction per row, with each row having several columns, one of which is a description that typically indicates the merchant.
I want excel to recognize a given merchant in the description cell, and then sort the associated row to be placed into a subcategory (linked to the given merchant) and then summed up.
For example,
a transaction with the description "Joe's Diner" would be sorted to Restaurants subcat
a transaction with the description "Dave's Supermarket" would be sorted to Groceries subcat
a transaction with an unrecognized description would be sorted to Misc subcat
I'm running Excel 2003 on Windows 2000. I'm working with a worksheet that is about 10,000 rows long and 25 columns wide. The first and second columns all have data in them, and the third through twenty fifth could have data. From row to row, if there is data present it will be in columns from left to right. By that I mean that if there is data in four columns of a particular row, it will always be in columns 1-4, not spread out throughout the 25 columns.
What I'm trying to do is sort the data in each row so that values ascend from left to right. Here's a very simple version of what the data looks like:
A B C D E F 1 a 6 3 2 b 5 9 2 8 3 c 6 5 2 4 d 9 5 e 3 9
When I'm done I would want the data to look like this:
A B C D E F 1 a 3 6 2 b 2 5 8 9 3 c 2 5 6 4 d 9 5 e 3 9
I need to lock consecutive rows together before sorting. e.g. A1 contains a name and A2 is blank: B1 contains data related to name in A1 - so does B2, and so on. Therefore need to lock rows 1 and 2 together, then 3 and 4 together and so on, but sorting on the data in the first cell of the group e.g. A1
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?
Currently I get a 1004 error. "Method of Range of Object _Global Failed" on "Range(Selection).Sort.SortFields.Clear"
Code: Sub sortBacklog() Dim appExcel As Excel.Application Dim myWorkbook As Excel.Workbook Dim myWorkSheet As Worksheet Set appExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application") Set myWorkbook = appExcel.Workbooks.Open("C:Backlog.xls") Set myWorkSheet = myWorkbook.Sheets(1)
I have data being fed from an application where it's difficult to sort the rows into ascending order. So is there a way that VBA can sort them and produce a value according to the order?
For example, Column A contains 5 rows. Row 1's value is 4 Row 2's value is 1 Row 3's value is 2 Row 4's value is 3 Row 5's value is 5
If I were to sort these into ascending order, I'd get 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 in Column A. But I can't sort the rows so I need code to tell me which is the lowest number (1), which is the second lowest number (2), etc.
The purpose of the code will be to put values in Column B according to what's found in Column A. For the the lowest number, 1, the value in the cell next to it in Column B would be "a". For number 2, it would be "b", etc.
I have a spreadsheet that I want to keep the blank rows that seperate the data for asthetic reasons. Can I sort just the rows with data in them and still keep the blank rows where they are?
I have a excel doc that have multiple tabs (different clients) with information (task, date due, who's responsible, and client), and I want to have a master tab that lists all tasks on any tab put in order by date. Essentially so everyone in the office can quickly see what their most pressing task's are.
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.
can anyone help me on how to create a formula or a macro that will automatically sort while preserving the relationships in rows without having to press any button? I have attached a sample workbook. Basically column ABCD under row 8 to 15 contains manual inputed values. While column ABCD beginning from row 24 to 26 should contains the automated sorted preserved relationship values.
I've come upon a problem with sorting that I don't know how to tackle... I have entries in a workbook that I want to sort by a transaction number, but each entry spans multiple rows. One "entry" might look like this, for example:
TransID PassengerName Ticket# leg of travel: Departure Arrival leg of travel: Departure Arrival
I need to be able to sort by TransID or PassengerName while keeping the "legs of travel" attached to the correct TransID/Ticket#.
I have a worksheet with columns of Unique Words and corresponding Frequency of Occurrence for several years. I would like to sort the data so the rows match up on same Unique Words across years.
I have over 300 rows with a username in the column A followed by 3 fields in the following columns B,C,D. I want to just sort all 300 rows alphabetically by column B,C,D.
I am trying to sort in rows, a large number of rows. I can do text to columns, delimit by colon, and sort individual rows. But I have spreadsheets that are 100s of rows long. Is there anyway to automate?
I have a long list of records/rows. Each record has about 22 cells (columns).
Recently the number of records/rows exceeded 1400 and I started noticing that Excel no longer can sort my records correctly. I sort them according to the first column, which is called PRIORITY. And these values go from 0-2500 and more. But very often my list looks as follows
2500 2437 2355 102 108 107 2102 169 1982 1970
And so on.
The funny thing is if I sort less than 1400 entries, it does it right. Actually, the cutoff line is somewhere between 1410 and 1425. Usually below 1410 it will work fine, above 1425 it will not, and between 1410 and 1425 it is erratic.
1) Is it possible to hide all cols save D & E and also all blank rows in Col D
2) I would like to have an initial If statement saying stating that if the answer to the question in D2 is Y then don't display anything else other than the info in B2 & B3.
£) the sorting seems to have gone funny - not sure what I've done here, I'd like it sorted by phase (col A)
4) where there is a blank in the cell under a question (for example D3) - this means that the same question applies and that multiple docs should be returned (e.g for Q1 D2 docs 1 & 2 display, for qu D37 docs 36 - 39 display)
I have a pivot table and i am trying to display the rows in order of relevance. I have a bit of code that will sort the rows into the order I want them which I have included. My problem is that sometimes I will have rows that will not be there, If position 3 doesn't exist I would expect it to display 1,2,4,5 but instead I get an error message.
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'm currently trying to make a sort macro that sorts a row of data that has a combination of numerical data and the text entry "N.A."
e.g.:
My field: 1 2 N.A 4 5 N.A 9
I want to sort the cells by descending value. But the result appears as:
My field: N.A N.A 9 5 4 2 1
But I want to numbers to appear first and have the "N.A."s to be after the number, since I have about 100 columns and some rows have like 30 N.A., which is pretty bad for usability if all that appears in the first screen are "N.A."
EDIT: by the way by ascending the data is fine since it orders by smallest number to largest and THEN the "N.A."
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 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 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 been trying to sort an excel spreadsheet to no avail. I have read mutliple posts and searched online but I can not find a solution. This is what I have. I have three columns of data. column A is an account name. column b has some insurance coverage info and may have multiple rows that go with column A. Column C has the effective date of the coverages in column B. I want to sort column A in alphabetical order but when I have tried it does not keep column B and C together with column A.
Column A Column B Column C company 1 General Liab 5/1/14-15 Workers Comp 2/1/13-14
company 2 workers comp 2/1/13-14
company 3 crime 5/5/14-15 D&O 5/5/14-15 Fee 4/15/14-15
