Resequencing for SQL

[Pokystick]

Hi,

I'm currently doing a lot of re-arrangements for columns in Excel. It has to be in a particular order before I send it for processing and the arrangement of the column are in another spreadsheet with the exact name.

Is there any way to re-arrange them automatically using macros?

For example:


[TABLE="class: outer_border, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Last name[/TD]
[TD]Age[/TD]
[TD]First name[/TD]
[TD]ID number[/TD]
[TD]Location[/TD]
[TD]Date[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Re-arranged into:

[TABLE="class: outer_border, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]First name[/TD]
[TD]Last name[/TD]
[TD]Age[/TD]
[TD]ID[/TD]
[TD]Date[/TD]
[TD]Location[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


Thank you for taking your time to read!

Welcome to the Board!

Yes, if you turn on your Macro Recorder and record yourself moving the columns around your desired format, you will have recorded VBA code that will do that for you that you can use to automate the process.
You can clean up the code if you want to make it a little more efficient (the Recorder records unnecessary things like Selections and Scrolls), but the code will work regardless.
