ARRANGE COLUMN AND COPY ON THE OTHER COLUMN
I haven't seen anything in the forum that could answer my problem regarding the excel file I'm starting. I WANT TO ARRANGE COLUMN A IN A WAY THAT WHEN THE WORD "CHECK" IS ENCOUNTERED, THAT DESCRIPTION AND THE WEIGHT WILL ARRANGE ITSELF AND POSITION ITSELF AT THE END OF THE GROUP
WITH SAME NAME BEFORE THE "CHECK". ALL THE CELLS IN ARRANGED WAY IS REFLECTED IN COLUMN C & E. EACH DESCRIPTION HAS UNIQUE WEIGHT. THE DESCRIPTION & WEIGHT IS CHANGED EVERY NOW & THEN. A B C E EFFECT - ARRANGED Description Weight Description Weight GO1 0.5 GO1 0.5 GO2 0.4 GO2 0.4 MO1 0.7 GO1 CHECK 0.7 MO2 0.9 MO1 0.7 FO1 0.8 MO2 0.9 FO2 0.9 FO1 0.8 TO1 0.6 FO2 0.9 TO2 0.8 FO1 CHECK 0.7 GO1 CHECK 0.7 FO1 CHECK 0.7 I HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP ME...

ARRANGE COLUMN AND COPY ON THE OTHER COLUMN
Enter formula
=LEFT(A2)&IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("CHECK",A2)),1,0) in an empty helper column and sort table by this helper column, if you don't mind that F preceeds G!

ARRANGE COLUMN AND COPY ON THE OTHER COLUMN
If you must insist on G,M,F,T order then use this formula in the helper column:
=LOOKUP(LEFT(A2),{"F","G","M","T"},{3,1,2,4})&LEFT (A2)&IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("CHECK",A2)),1,0) Stefi €˛Stefi€¯ ezt Ć*rta: Enter formula =LEFT(A2)&IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("CHECK",A2)),1,0) in an empty helper column and sort table by this helper column, if you don't mind that F preceeds G!

ARRANGE COLUMN AND COPY ON THE OTHER COLUMN
Another way with a helper column.
Type the formula in C2 =Len(a2) and copy down. I gave the Column the Header RANK. Sort on then Description to get best sort. Repeat for other list.
