The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Mapping columns to another fixed format worksheet

Asked by jaschlueter in Microsoft Office Suite

Consider an Excel file that has an unknown number of columns and rows, but several of them (columns) need to be placed in a specific location on another worksheet.

So...

Sheet1 (the original file):

A B C D ? ?....
part#1 qty cost uom part#2 etc
value value value value value value

Sheet2 (the fixed file)
A B C D E F
part#2 part#1 qty cost (may not use).... uom
value value value value n/a value

I visualize this in either an Excel macro or an Access database(with a module). The user would be prompted to identify which columns in Sheet1 mapped to the correct column in Sheet2. I would prefer that the user be prompted using the column name like "part#" and the code will know where that entire column will be copied and pasted to in Sheet2.

The big addition that I also need (which I will gladly award an additional 500 points) is the ability to SAVE the mapping specific to the users file so that if a similar file comes along, you can pull up that "mapping" action again without having to go through the steps of identifying columns again through prompts.

I just need some help to get started as even I don't have all the information that I need, but this should be enough to get you going.

Thanks you fabulous programmers! :)
