Default Filter ZIP codes into ranges

I am working on a project to take a list of ZIP codes (29,133 rows) and
sort it by territory, then find all ZIPs in that territory that are in
sequential order and make a ZIP range from the 2 extremes in the
sequential group.

The logic behind what I want to do goes like this:

Sort by Region code, then by Zone #, then by ZIP code. Find all groups
of ZIP codes sequentially ordered and append the first ZIP in the group
to column X and the last ZIP in the group to Column Y.




Hi Ron

It provides the steps for setting up a dependent data validation list
which may help with what you are looking for.
