hi i have a report where the data spills across columns unevenly.
e.g. the
Details field on
row 2 should be "FerrarriRedHot",
row 3 should be "BrandNew",
row 4 should be "WonInLuckyDraw"
for some reason when i get the data, it spills across column unevenly and the only way i can identify is by keywords for the column Status e.g. Ok. So what i am currently doing right now is
1) create a new column on the left to Details
2) sort the columns on the rightmost after MoreDetails
3) use a string concatenate the "House"&"End"&"Of"&"The"&"Road"
4) repeat to sort the next column, repeat to concatenate the string
5) delete the columns to bring Ok under Status
just wondering if there is a shorter way to do this with VBA or macro? Am afraid my VBA skills is very rudimentary
IF this is the wrong place to ask, can please help to point me to the right place, as am afraid the company doesn't permit installation of foreign software or open source data cleaning softwares in cases of ransomware
