Hello Diana,

I took your data and succeeded in obtaining a report of calls for each of
the people.
The table must have headers like: name, calls.
With Excel 2007 you click insert, table, create pivot table, specify the
location as say G1:H24. Choose fields to add to report:name and calls.
This will create you your output of all names and the associated number of
calls made by each person.

Best Regards,

Gabor Sebo

Subject: Slow subtotal and insert row


Hi,

I have a worksheet with about 400 rows. Data looks like:

Name calls
Peter 5
John 3
David 9
Jenny 1
Gina 10
Peter 2
Gina 6
Mary 6
David 3

I want the number of calls made by each person.

So what I have done is a sort, then a subtotal, then insert a row after
the
subtotal to make it look better.

I find the code for the calculation of the subtotal and insert run very
slowly (takes about a minute. I can see the screen flickering and the rows
being inserted). Is there a way I can make it run faster?

One other question:

In my code I refer to the columns by the letter eg, "J", "K", is there a
way
I can tell it to use column headers, eg. Name, calls
