I dumped some CDR files from our phone system and I need to sort out the data in the CVS file. Doing it manually takes almost all day long to do it as we get countless calls. I found this code online which works great to delete all the columns I don't need. However, it's only doing part of what I need to do.

Other things I would like to do to the file are:


Change time from epoch "xxxxxxxxxx" to time "dd/mm/yy hh:mm:ss"
Autofit Column Width
Change the column names from "dateTimeOrigination" to "Date Time" ect.
Apply this automatically to any CDR.cvs dump file I open.


I am using Excel 2016.Thanks!!!!


Sub deleteIrrelevantColumns()
Dim keepColumn As Boolean
Dim currentColumn As Integer
Dim columnHeading As String


currentColumn = 1
While currentColumn <= ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count
columnHeading = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Cells(1, currentColumn).Value


'CHECK WHETHER TO KEEP THE COLUMN
keepColumn = False
If columnHeading = "dateTimeOrigination" Then keepColumn = True
If columnHeading = "callingPartyNumber" Then keepColumn = True
If columnHeading = "originalCalledPartyNumber" Then keepColumn = True
If columnHeading = "finalCalledPartyNumber" Then keepColumn = True
If columnHeading = "dateTimeConnect" Then keepColumn = True
If columnHeading = "dateTimeDisconnect" Then keepColumn = True
If columnHeading = "lastRedirectDn" Then keepColumn = True
If columnHeading = "duration" Then keepColumn = True




If keepColumn Then
'IF YES THEN SKIP TO THE NEXT COLUMN,
currentColumn = currentColumn + 1
Else
'IF NO DELETE THE COLUMN
ActiveSheet.Columns(currentColumn).Delete
End If


'LASTLY AN ESCAPE IN CASE THE SHEET HAS NO COLUMNS LEFT
If (ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Address = "$A$1") And (ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1").Text = "") Then Exit Sub
Wend


End Sub

Autofit Column Width
Change the column names from "dateTimeOrigination" to "Date Time" ect.
You should be able to get this code pretty easily by using the Macro Recorder and record yourself performing these steps manually (the Macro Recorder is a great tool for getting code snippets!).

Change time from epoch "xxxxxxxxxx" to time "dd/mm/yy hh:mm:ss"
Can you provide some examples of what these dates look like (and what those examples need to look like afterwards)?
