Maddening Dilemma - Compare each cell within column a to eachcell
Pete,
Having the macro in its own file and having it run directly within my
source file is a great idea!
As for scanning multiple times with different criteria of decimal
place; the issue here isnt even matching just numbers anymore, that is
the easy part as you have already coded a suitable solution. The
problem now is cancelling the correct matching numbers, with the added
difficulty of "number status" as i explained earlier with the Reversal
column (B,R,N). I don't think that feature will be necessary,
scanning to the hundreths should be sufficient for my application.
There will always be one or two mistakes, i will do a visual search
myself to insure accuracy. No application is perfect.
But it is a good suggestion, maybe just one that i wont need to
implement at this moment. But if you wish to have two seperate
versions of the macro, please do, by all means. But the one without
this added code may be more useful to me.
That is a very interesting suggestion with the date sorting and making
negative numbers negative dates. Very smart solution. If the macro
could auto sort in the desired pattern, run itself, and then get rid
of the negative dates (normalize them again), that would be immensly
useful. The sort can remain, i can always autofilter and sort later
on without a problem.
As for the file, i have sent the full file to you, but it comes with a
sidenote: the queries run to generate these files change all the
time, different people modify them for different reasons, and i do as
well. Therefore, the order and placement of the columns is not
completely static. Therefore, if the macro is column-centric, it
would be nice to have some comments along with the code so i can
revise it myself if need be. If its not too much trouble.
One other way around this would be to look for the column names (which
are in fact static), and then adjust the column values automatically
at which the macro looks. Would this be a possible solution? Dont
worry about it for now though. Feel free to assume the columns dont
move, but just letting you know this is not always the case.
I hope you are being challenged with this macro dilemma, so far you
have been passing with flying colors, and helping me alot in the
process.
Thanks again Pete,
