I have a rather large worksheet that contains a list of all items in a
warehouse inventory. I would like to be able to combine duplicate
items as new inventory is added.
Each item has (among other fields) an item ID, a color and a
condition. I would like to combine only the lines where all of these
fields are identical, summing the quantities in each record, and
recalculating the cost based on the cost field in each record.
Currently, I do this by starting at the top of the list and comparing
each record to all of the records below it to the end of the list.
This is rather time-consuming as the macro must do thousands of
comparisons for each of the thousands of records in the list. Is there
a faster way to accomplish this without changing the sort order of the
list?
Thanks for your help,
William
