hi all,

first of all thanks for reading over this. to give you some background i am working on my senior thesis and i need to sort through a bunch of data. i am trying to sort this data using VBA because i think it will be much more effecient and will have a longer use.

here is the problem/picture (i have about 300 sheets that i need to sort like this):

I need to align the ABCD return table on the left with the other return table on the right so that i can compare the two table's percentages. essentially, i am trying to align these tables next to each other so that they are ascending downward and i can compare and contrast the dates and percentages. thanks for your help any tips, answers and additional questions welcome.

sorry for questioning so much, but can you speculate as to why markmzz's formulas are not working for me and only returning "VALUE!" ? im so close to getting this process automated... i will never surrender! :rofl:

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.

Its because you didn't import Column A as a date. If you can't figure out how to do that, try this formula instead: ="CY"&LEFT(A2,4)&"Mon"&LEFT(RIGHT(A2,5),2)
