Move cells down

[gary]

My spreadsheet has:

G T
001504798-2 001504798-2 xoxoxox
001511777-5 001511777-5 485505

001515239-8
001515239-8
001515239-8
001515312-0

Note: The cells in T may have more than 11 characters but I want to
match on the 11 leftmost characters.



How can I move the cells in COL T down until they are on the same row
as the matching cells in COL G so the result is:

G T
001504798-2 001504798-2 xoxoxox
001511777-5 001511777-5 485505

Is it the case that column T may contain either one or two substrings? Or is the third apparent column of strings in a separate column?

Is it the case that you do NOT want columns H:S altered?

I answered this in another forum VERY recently

Sub moveemdowntomatchSAS()
Dim i As Long
For i = 2 To Cells(Rows.Count, "a").End(xlUp).Row
If Left(Cells(i, "a"), 11) <> Left(Cells(i, "b"), 11) Then
Cells(i, "b").Resize(, 2).Insert
End If
Next i
End Sub
