Using AutoFilter to Sort Data Pulled in by INDEX / MATCH
I have a workbook in which one sheet contains various columns of data that
are being pulled in from other sheets using the INDEX / MATCH function. One column includes a list of identifiers for particular companies and the other columns pull in data for the identifier in that particular row. The data includes the names of various companies and different financial statistics for each company. When I use AutoFilter to sort a particular column, it correctly sorts the first row (i.e., the appropriate company appears at the top of the worksheet) but the corresponding data is not correct because the INDEX / MATCH function for a particular column is linked the identifier in the row where the correctly sorted company used to be. If I'm not explaining this well enough, please let me know. I guess my question is: does using AutoFilter create problems when you are sorting data that is being pulled in from other workeets, or should it not make a difference? Several things are quite strange about the situation. 1) It worked last week when I tried to sort 2) the columns where I just use a MATCH formula work fine. Not quite sure what is happening, so I would greatly appreciate any feedback! Also, please let me know if I'm not being specific enough. Thank you! |
