Hi Team,

I'm facing the current scenario, I will start by placing the sheet that i'm working in and then bring up what has to be done:

Sheet1


So Mainly a cleanup should be done in Column K:K respecting each UUID (in such not to apply the same condition on cells that belongs to the second UUID) according to the following criteria:
1- Clear Duplicates in the column
2- Clear all cells where "vrqm" or "VMGT0" or "wfm0" is not found in any word inside the cell // (note i have more but i will add them myself)
3- Shift cell up to avoid empty cells
4- Shift cell up in case the cell that matches the UUID is empty
5- Delete Empty Rows

Once that is done we will have to work on the entire table to properly format it, we will mainly need to merge empty cells in each column till they reach the line before the next UUID starts.
Finally, last task will be to merge and center the last row.

The expected output should be as follow:
UUIDWhatsover1Whatsover2Whatsover3Whatsover4Whatsover5Whatsover6Whatsover7Whatsover8Whatsover9Adjust and filterWhatsover10
140542WhatsoverWhatsoverWhatsoverWhatsoverWhatsover5/20/2021 10:00:00 AM5/20/2021 10:00:00 AMScheduledWhatsoverOrangevrqm is great for taste3-Moderate/Limited

I would appreciate if you guys could help me with the VBA Code.

Cheers!
Boris
 
I think that you mis-understood what I was asking. Your original data in post #9 is shown in the range A2:L26.
Your expected results do not show rows or columns. Are they in A2:L13 (approx) in the same worksheet or in, say Y2:AJ13 (approx) in the same worksheet or even on a different worksheet?"
Oh apologies to that, the result will be in A2:L13 (approx) in the same worksheet.
The main report can disappear, won't need it after the cleanup runs through the code

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"
Thanks for the additional clarification. I'm not sure that I will be able to help with this in the end but it still isn't clear anyway.

Why isn't BlueberryVMGT0 is really good.Blueberry is delicous1 in the expected results for UUID 140542?

How do UUIDs 140555 and 140888 get values in columns C:F in the expected results when they have no values in those columns in the original data?

Hi Peter,
BlueberryVMGT0 is really good.Blueberry is delicous1 is in the expected results for UUID 140542 (i've checked it in the expected output and it's there)
How do UUIDs 140555 and 140888 get values in columns C:F in the expected results when they have no values in those columns in the original data? =>Whatsoever values we have for C:F we won't touch it, the objective is to merge the blank cells in the column, you can consider each "whatsoever" to be "whatsoeverX" with X a variable...

If you can't help, thank you for having tried && i would appreciate if you can assign it to someone that would be able to help finding out the code (VBA).

After a double check i've noticed the BlueberryVMGT0 is really good.Blueberry is delicous3 is there but not the BlueberryVMGT0 is really good.Blueberry is delicous1 // i've added it :)
Thank you for your patience :), here we go again for the expected output:

I didn't understand that. Don't we only merge rows within each UUID range of rows?
I would have thought that since the green and blue areas below have no data, then the results for those sections would have no data. Are you specifically saying that here cells C6:C22 (from UUID 140542 and 140555 and 140888) all get merged into one single merge area and similar for the other columns?

Nobody "works" for the forum so there is no assigning of threads. It is a public forum and if anybody wants to help with a thread they can but there is no compulsion to do so. Still, you never know, somebody else might step in at any time.
