Sorting a column
Posted on 2012-12-27
EE Pros,
I have a simple graphic that depicts priority based on two factors. I need a macro that looks at a helper cell (column) and determines "priority" (high to low) and properly place a set of sequencial rows in the proper order (highest priority first). I have attached a worksheet so you can see exactly what I'm trying to accomplish.
Thank you in advance,
B.

Hi, Bright01.
Please see attached. The code (below) uses the Helper Cells column to determine how many rows are in the table - the last row is considered to be the one before the first blank cell.
