I have a problem that I do not know how to solve.
Facts: I have data in a text file that I can easily import into excel. The problem is manipulating the data after it is in excel. The data comes in in the following format: Column A Column B Employee ID: 123456 Key Data Employee Name Smith Key Data Other info Other info Other info Other info Pay Info1 123,456 Key Data Pay Info2 789,123 Key Data Total Pay 1,234,567 Key Data Other info Other info Department Accounting Key Data Other info Other info There is a blank row and then the next record starts in the same format. Some records contain the other info fields others do not. However, all records contain the Key Data fields. I want to take this info and get it into the following format: Column A Column B Column C Column D Column E Column F Employee ID Employee Name PayInfo1 Pay Info2 Total Pay Department The I can sort by Department, sort from highest Total Pay to lowest etc. Each month I will need to do this so some records may change others may not. New records may be added or employees may change department. Can I do what I want to do or do I need to programming help? |
