Macro Question

C

carl

I am using this code:
______________________________________________________-

Option Explicit
Sub testme()

Dim iRow As Long
Dim FirstRow As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim wks As Worksheet

Set wks = Worksheets("Sheet1")

With wks
FirstRow = 2 'headers in row 1
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

.Range("A1:C" & LastRow).Sort _
key1:=.Range("A1"), order1:=xlAscending, _
key2:=.Range("c1"), order2:=xlAscending, _
key3:=.Range("b1"), order3:=xlAscending, _
header:=xlYes

For iRow = LastRow To FirstRow + 1 Step -1
If .Cells(iRow, "A").Value = .Cells(iRow - 1, "A").Value _
And .Cells(iRow, "C").Value = .Cells(iRow - 1, "C").Value
Then
.Cells(iRow - 1, "B").Value _
= .Cells(iRow - 1, "B").Value _
& ";" & .Cells(iRow, "B").Value
.Rows(iRow).Delete
End If
Next iRow
End With

End Sub

___________________________________________________

This worked great until we started using upper and lower case
characters in one of the data fields. For example, my data table now
looks like this:


Code Number
HO 549
HO 910
HO 919
HO 980
HO 918
HO 937
HO 051
ho 549
ho 910
HO 642

When I run the code above, it produces this result:

HO 051;549
ho 549
HO 642;910
ho 910
HO 918;919;937;980

I am looking for this result:

HO 051;549;642;910;918;919;937;980
ho 549;910

Is there a way to modify the code to produce the desired result ?

If not, is there code that can produce the desired result ?

Thank you in advance.

Add... Option Compare Text
as the second line in your module - right after Option Explicit.

Thank you John.

I tried running the code with the change:

Option Explicit
Option Compare Text

Sub testme()


Dim iRow As Long
Dim FirstRow As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim wks As Worksheet


Set wks = Worksheets("Sheet1")


With wks
FirstRow = 2 'headers in row 1
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row


.Range("A1:C" & LastRow).Sort _
key1:=.Range("A1"), order1:=xlAscending, _
key2:=.Range("c1"), order2:=xlAscending, _
key3:=.Range("b1"), order3:=xlAscending, _
header:=xlYes


For iRow = LastRow To FirstRow + 1 Step -1
If .Cells(iRow, "A").Value = .Cells(iRow - 1, "A").Value _
And .Cells(iRow, "C").Value = .Cells(iRow - 1, "C").Value
Then
.Cells(iRow - 1, "B").Value _
= .Cells(iRow - 1, "B").Value _
& ";" & .Cells(iRow, "B").Value
.Rows(iRow).Delete
End If
Next iRow
End With


End Sub


I got this result:

HO 051;549;549;642;910;910;918;919;937;980


It looks lke the macro combined HO and ho ?

I was trying to get this result:

HO 051;549;642;910;918;919;937;980
ho 549;910

Yes, it changed the comparison from Case sensitive to not Case sensitive.
Have you tried sorting your data before running your original code?

Thanks Again John.

I did sort on Col A and ran the original code and got the same result:

HO 051;549
ho 549
HO 642;910
ho 910
HO 918;919;937;980


I am looking for this result:

ho 549;910


Any thoughts ?

I replaced all instances of "ho" with ho and a space... "ho " (looks the same, but is not)
Your code then produced the results you want.

I use xl2003, so the menu options may be slightly different.

But you can record a macro when you're sorting some test data (in a test worksheet).

Put some test data in column A (upper and lower case)
Select column A
Data|Sort (in xl2003 menus)
Click the Options Button on the sort dialog.

You'll see a checkbox for "Case sensitive". Check this box.

The recorded code looks like:

Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("A1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes, _
OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=True, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
DataOption1:=xlSortNormal

You'll see that "matchcase:=true" parm. Include that little bit into your
code's sort statement and you'll be close to what you want!

Pete,
There is much I don't understand about a lot of the questions/responses posted here.
Some of my past posts, I'm convinced were done while I was asleep or drunk. <g>
I am just happy to get a response as the count of unique non responders, to my posts, is now at 1700.
I assume "John" is a translation issue.
Jim Cone


Jim, why does the OP keep calling you John ??
