Hi I have a spread sheet which may become huge once and i cannot reveal it.
However i would like to sort the spread sheet based on the coloumns, with a conditional "OK" in some occassions
1. selected 2 coloumns, if data is ok/OK the the entire row has to be copied to another sheet
2. on some occasions selected 3 coloumns has "ok/OK" then entire row has to be copied to another sheet
3. Some occassions if the selected 2 or 3 coloumns have "ok/OK" && AND if the a coloumn "x" is marked as "I" then the entire row has to copied to another sheet.
Please can i get help .. Please want a generic Macro so that i decide which coloumns to look for and what condition.

I created a sample spreadsheet, not sure how to attach it here.

Thanks in advance

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
An example i would like to attach here is this

<table x:str="" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 724pt;" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="965"><col style="width: 48pt;" span="10" width="64"> <col style="width: 244pt;" width="325"> <tbody><tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl24" style="height: 12.75pt; width: 48pt;" x:num="" height="17" width="64">1</td> <td class="xl24" style="width: 48pt;" x:num="" width="64">2</td> <td class="xl24" style="width: 48pt;" x:num="" width="64">3</td> <td class="xl24" style="width: 48pt;" x:num="" width="64">4</td> <td class="xl24" style="width: 48pt;" width="64">

In here for each row if for (columns selected, 1, 2, 3 etc) copy the description in the results sheet. I might have to choose the coloumns based on the my search querry. So also the search sting could be ok/OK; if it is y/Y i will change it search string before running macro
