Good morning all,

I've hit a bit of a road block with some reporting and database automation and I was hoping one of you could help! I have a databse of product that I'm using to call certain data. For ease of reading the report I'd like to insert rows that have the summary of the product, then move on to the next product. Right now it's all manual, inserting rows, summing the cells above. For example:

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 1162"]

I'm thinking it might be easiest to just have a set number of rows, regardless of the number of products, there might be empty rows, but it'd be easy to just "copy the SKUs here, every 15 ros, insert name, sum rows here". Normally this wouldn't be an issue, but the extra text (size,color) that is included in the product name column throws me off with a search and copy.

I appreciate any insight you guys might have!

My apologies. Although that change was necessary, it's still not going to work. Other changes need to be made. I have to go out for a few hours. I will have another look at it as soon as I can and get back to you.

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Try this macro. It is based on the first 2 words in each product name since that is the only pattern that allows comparison of the names. If any product name doesn't fit this pattern, your results won't be completely accurate.
Code: 
Sub InsertRowsandSum2()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim LastRow As Long, product As Range, rng As Range, val As String, RngList As Object, foundVal As Range, item As Variant, x As Long: x = 2
    Set RngList = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
    LastRow = Cells.Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
    Set rng = Range("B3:B" & LastRow)
    For Each product In rng
        val = Mid(product, 1, Excel.WorksheetFunction.Find(" ", product, WorksheetFunction.Find(" ", product) + 1))
        If Not RngList.Exists(val) Then
            RngList.Add val, Nothing
        End If
    Next product
    For Each item In RngList
        Set foundVal = rng.Find(item, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=False)
        Rows(foundVal.Row + 1).Insert
        Range("C" & foundVal.Row + 1).Formula = "=SUM(C" & x & ":C" & foundVal.Row & ")"
        Range("D" & foundVal.Row + 1).Formula = "=sum(D" & x & ":D" & foundVal.Row & ")"
        Range("E" & foundVal.Row + 1).Formula = "=sum(E" & x & ":E" & foundVal.Row & ")"
        Range("F" & foundVal.Row + 1).Formula = "=sum(F" & x & ":F" & foundVal.Row & ")"
        Range("G" & foundVal.Row + 1).Formula = "=sum(G" & x & ":G" & foundVal.Row & ")"
        Range("H" & foundVal.Row + 1).Formula = "=sum(H" & x & ":H" & foundVal.Row & ")"
        x = foundVal.Row + 2
    Next item
    RngList.RemoveAll
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

mumps, this works PERFECTLY!! Thanks so much for your help on this. I should have no trouble incorporating this into the main report I'm working on.

My pleasure. :)

mumps, I've got this thing cruisin! However, I've now been asked to include sales data for 2016 + 2017, so that adds 10 columns to the SUM portion of this code. I was wondering if there is a simple way to loop through all of that instead of having to type out "C" through "R"? I can for sure copy + paste and edit, just seems inefficient... If it isn't easy just tell me and don't worry about it!

Can you upload a copy of your file as you did before?
