Sorting problem
Hello, I have problem on designing a worksheet for client order management.
One client order usually comes with several delivery from our side : PO# order qty DN# Qty ABC 20000pcs #12345 5000 #14355 5000 #21379 10000 DEF 10000pcs #23198 5000 #19834 5000 Question: the problem is that when I sort the column "DN#" with figures started by "1" the result comes out like this: PO# order qty DN# Qty ABC 20000pcs #12345 5000 #14355 5000 #19834 5000 Since the result is misleading, I am now looking for solutions that could correctly display my query. Any suggestions on the design/ excel function that could be used? |

Hi
I think your problem is just that you don't have PO# on each line You can achieve this quite easily. Select the range of cells in column A, equivalent to the range of cells in DN# F5SpecialBlanksOK This will select all the blank cells and your cursor will be in the first of these. =up arrowControl+Enter All the blanks will now be filled with the PO# as far as the delivery point DN# is concerned, ignore Order Qty, it is just the Qty that is relevant -- Regards Roger Govier "Ting Li" wrote in message ...

There are 4 navigation keys on the keyboard Up, Down Left and Right
Press the = key, then the up arrow, which will select the cell above the first of the empty cells, then press Enter. -- Regards Roger Govier "Khoshravan" wrote in message ...
