Sheet1


And I will use these codes

VBA Code: 
Sub CopySort()
Range("A6").CurrentRegion.Sort Range("D6"), xlAscending, Range("A6"), , xlAscending, Header:=x
Const DataCol As String = "D"
    Const StartRow = 6
    LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, DataCol).End(xlUp).Row
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    For x = LastRow To StartRow + 1 Step -1
        If Cells(x, DataCol).Value <> Cells(x - 1, DataCol) Then Range(DataCol & x & ":" & DataCol & x + 2).EntireRow.Insert
    Next
End Sub
To get this

Sheet1


On some of my ranges column D will not be an exact match and will be something like: Bronx01, Bronx02 or Bronx04 etc. I would like for the code to keep them together and not separate them and hopefully get something like this

erase the "option explicit" or add this in the Dim-line
VBA Code: 
    Dim DBR, a, i, s, sp, c

Just to clarify this last error was with the use of option explicit, the 1004 error was without the use of it.

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
Here's another way, without the use of tables. Assumes column J is 'available' as a helper.

VBA Code: 
Option Explicit
Sub Coyotex3()
    Dim lr As Long, i As Long, j As Long, data
    Dim ws As Worksheet, rng As Range, s As String
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Set ws = ActiveSheet
    lr = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
    
    data = ws.Range("D7:D" & lr)
    For i = 1 To UBound(data)
        s = ""
        For j = 1 To Len(data(i, 1))
            If Not IsNumeric(Mid(data(i, 1), j, 1)) Then
                s = s & (Mid(data(i, 1), j, 1))
            End If
        Next j
        data(i, 1) = s
    Next i
    
    With ws
        .Range("J7").Resize(UBound(data)).Value = data
        .Range("A6").CurrentRegion.Sort _
        Key1:=.Range("J6"), Order1:=1, _
        Key2:=.Range("D6"), Order2:=1, _
        Key3:=.Range("B6"), Order3:=1, _
        Header:=0
    End With
    
    Set rng = ws.Range("J7:J" & lr)
    For i = rng.Cells.Count To 1 Step -1
        If rng.Item(i) <> rng.Item(i).Offset(-1) Then
            rng.Item(i).Resize(3).EntireRow.Insert
        End If
    Next i
    ws.Range("J1").EntireColumn.ClearContents
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Also getting an application 1004 error with this code for some reason. Column J is available as well.

When it gets to this:

VBA Code: 
.Range("A6").CurrentRegion.Sort _
        Key1:=.Range("J6"), Order1:=1, _
        Key2:=.Range("D6"), Order2:=1, _
        Key3:=.Range("B6"), Order3:=1, _
        Header:=0

OK try changing
VBA Code: 
.Range("A6").CurrentRegion.Sort

to
VBA Code: 
.Range("D7").CurrentRegion.Sort

OK, I've changed the reference from ActiveSheet to Sheet1. Other than that, I copied your data & tested it - and the code works fine. If this doesn't work for you, I'm sorry I'm unable to help you further.

VBA Code: 
Option Explicit
Sub Coyotex3()
    Dim lr As Long, i As Long, j As Long, data
    Dim ws As Worksheet, rng As Range, s As String
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Set ws = Worksheets("Sheet1")
    lr = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
    
    data = ws.Range("D7:D" & lr)
    For i = 1 To UBound(data)
        s = ""
        For j = 1 To Len(data(i, 1))
            If Not IsNumeric(Mid(data(i, 1), j, 1)) Then
                s = s & (Mid(data(i, 1), j, 1))
            End If
        Next j
        data(i, 1) = s
    Next i
    
    With ws
        .Range("J7").Resize(UBound(data)).Value = data
        .Range("A6").CurrentRegion.Sort _
        Key1:=.Range("J6"), Order1:=1, _
        Key2:=.Range("D6"), Order2:=1, _
        Key3:=.Range("B6"), Order3:=1, _
        Header:=0
    End With
    
    Set rng = ws.Range("J7:J" & lr)
    For i = rng.Cells.Count To 1 Step -1
        If rng.Item(i) <> rng.Item(i).Offset(-1) Then
            rng.Item(i).Resize(3).EntireRow.Insert
        End If
    Next i
    ws.Range("J1").EntireColumn.ClearContents
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Mate thank you so much. This works. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

Would this code work if I had something like 01bronx01 02bronx02 etc?
