Combining Uneven Columns
I have a worksheet that has 6 months of data (2 columns for each month) the
first column for each month is zip codes and 2nd column is how many homes sold in each zip code for that month. I want to have just 1 column for the zip codes but yet keep the amount of houses sold in each zip code separate for each month. The problem being is that the same zip codes did not have sales each month. So my columns are uneven and not in the same order. I'm guessing there is a way to do this without manually matching each column up. -- Sandee Here is just 2 months (I have a total of 6 months) Zip January Zip Feb 85003 2 0 2 85006 7 85006 3 85007 2 85007 2 85008 9 85008 3 85009 1 85009 3 85012 2 85013 1 85013 2 85014 3 85014 7 85015 6 85015 5 85016 15 85016 7 85017 3 85017 4 85018 6 85018 15 85019 3 85019 4 85020 10 85020 6 85021 8 85021 4 85022 13 85022 5 85023 4 85023 7 85024 5 So I want just Column A to be Zip Codes Column B for January sales Column C for Feb Sales. . but I don't want to list the zip codes every month. |

Combining Uneven Columns
There is nothing that stops you from doing that, except that you will have
blank cells for those zip codes in which no houses were sold in the particular month? A complete list of zip codes in Col A, of course, and then quantities in the other columns. 85003 2 2 85006 7 3 85007 2 2 85008 9 3 85009 1 3 85012 2 85013 2 1 85014 7 3 85015 5 6 85016 7 15 85017 4 3 85018 15 6 85019 4 3 85020 6 10 85021 4 8 85022 5 13 85023 7 4 85024 5 Say you have headings in row 1. Move cursor to B2, click on View, Freeze panes, and you will always have the zipcodes visible, even if you move over to the right. -- HTH Kassie Replace xxx with hotmail "moparfamily" wrote: I have a worksheet that has 6 months of data (2 columns for each month) the first column for each month is zip codes and 2nd column is how many homes sold in each zip code for that month.

Combining Uneven Columns
That isn't my question. I know that there will be blanks. What I'm asking
is how do I merge the 6 lists of zip codes (some months have 100 zip codes some have 159 zip codes) so obviously they are not in the same order. Other than manually moving and inserting the zip codes into one column andmaking sure that the sales count stays in the correct row. . I am hoping I don't have to do each one manually. I'm looking for a function to help me with that. I need to merge the zip codes but leave the number of houses sold in the correct row with the zip code. -- Sandee "Kassie" wrote: There is nothing that stops you from doing that, except that you will have blank cells for those zip codes in which no houses were sold in the particular month?
