Sorting Data
Does anyone know how to Look throught a list of cells with specific data in them, and then pick the first entry of a selected item name and then get more data from that selection. Then look for the 2nd entry and do the same until there are no more entries. Example:- "Home Name" "Home Score" "Away Score" "Away Team" ------------------------------------------------------- England 3 1 Sweeden Germany 0 9 Iran Italy 4 4 Spain Holland 0 0 Argentina Germany 2 20 England What i want is to pick all of England Games's as you enter them down a long list. The Data i would need to extract would be "Home Name" "Home Score" "Away Score" "Away Team" and then list then in the order they appear in the list. Then do the same for all other teams. Into a list like below **England** "Home Name" "Home Score" "Away Score" "Away Team" ------------------------------------------------------- England 3 1 Sweeden Germany 2 20 England **Germany** "Home Name" "Home Score" "Away Score" "Away Team" ------------------------------------------------------- Germany 0 9 Iran Germany 2 20 England -- dgoodrid ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dgoodrid's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=34709 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=547510 |

Try the attached - you can see the macro code with ALT-F11. Enter the results and hit the update button. It works by creating a unique array of team names and then interogating the list for occurences in either the home or away columns I hope that your prediction for the England - Germany match comes true... +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: Book1.zip | |Download: http://www.excelforum.com/attachment.php?postid=4834 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- mrice Research Scientist with many years of spreadsheet development experience ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrice's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=10931 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=547510 |
