Automatic League Sort
Hi I have a league table (attachment table named 'World Cup League'). It updates scores as i enter them into a data table that precedes it (titled 'Games Won'). I would like to be able to automatically sort the 'World Cup League' in descending order every time i enter data into the 'Games Won' table to save me having to sort it every time. Any ideas would be gratefully received as i am trying to run a competition as a charity event and need to have to do as little possible to save time. Thank you +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: World Cup.zip | |Download: http://www.excelforum.com/attachment.php?postid=4776 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- Blade2304 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Blade2304's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=33492 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=543078 |

Automatic League Sort
For Excel to "automatically" do anything (such as sort), there must be
something to trigger Excel to sort. This can be something like entering anything in a cell in Column whatever, or Row whatever, or in a specific cell. You said "every time I enter data into the 'Games Won' table". Do you mean whenever you enter anything in any cell in the entire table? Or maybe you mean whenever you fill in a row. In that case Excel can be setup to sort when you enter something in the last cell of a row. In other words, when you enter anything into any cell in that column. Or perhaps you would like to have just a button somewhere in the sheet, usually at the top, that you can click on to trigger the sort. Post back and clarify what you have and what you want.

Automatic League Sort
Whenever i enter something into the 'Games Won' table. By entering a number into this table in any cell totals change. These totals then transfer into the 'World Cup League' table and therefore the competitors need sorting into rank order with most points first. I know i could do this with manually sorting each time i enter new data but it would be nice if it did it automatically. Also there may be blank rows in this table so i dont want them to be included in this sort. -- Blade2304 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Blade2304's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=33492 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=543078 |

This macro does what you want. I assumed the following: Both the Games Won and World Cup League tables are on the same sheet. The range of the Games Won table is named GamesWon. The range of the World Cup League table is named WorldCupLeague. The World Cup League table has its headers in Row 1 and the Rank Order column is Column H. Note that this is a sheet event macro and must be placed in the sheet module of the sheet that holds the two tables. To access that module, right-click on the sheet tab of that sheet, select View Code and paste this macro into that module. Click on the "X" in the top right corner to return to the sheet. Post back if you need help with changing this macro to work with your data layout. HTH Otto Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Value = "" Then Exit Sub If Not Intersect(Target, Range("GamesWon")) Is Nothing Then _ Range("WorldCupLeague").Sort Key1:=Range("H2"), _ Order1:=xlDescending, Header:=xlGuess, _ OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, _ Orientation:=xlTopToBottom End Sub "Blade2304" wrote in message ...
