How to group similar column titles together????
I have an excel spreadsheet with 6 column titles as follows:
1st column title = ob1 2nd column title = ob2 3rd column title = ab1 4th column title = ob3 5th column title = ab2 6th column title = ob4 I have about 200 lines of information on each column. I want to run a macro / function on this spreadsheet and my spreadsheet should regroup similar titles together as follows: 1st column title = ob1 2nd column title = ob2 3rd column title = ob3 4th column title = ob4 blank column 5th column title = ab1 6th column title = ab2 Can someone think of any way to do this? (A macro solution would be preferable) P.S. I have about 16 column titles that I need to group in my excel file. For simplicity sake, I have explained my problem with 6 columns.

Have you tried to sort them, using the option "from left to right"?
You could use a dummy row to set the required order. -- Greetings from New Zealand Bill K "vrk1" wrote in message ...
