Hi, I'm trying to get a custom Autoformat to work on reports we are exporting from a program. All I want is for each report to have a custom row width, a line added between each row and a column added between 'Payee' and 'Category or Match' titled 'Allocate to'.

There will be many reports done one after the other, hence why I want to make it as automatic as possible to save some time. There will also be multiple users with varying levels of Excel experience using and customizing these reports.

Is there a way to make your own Autoformat? Or would it have to be done as a macro?

Also sorry for the lack of XL2BB, our IT are pedantic and don't want it installed!

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
I suggest that you make your custom format on a sheet you name template or something like that. When you want to import the data, copy the sheet to a new one and then paste the values into it.

Macros can be created for that. Simply record the macro while copying the template and while importing the data. If you need more help, post the code and we'll get you closer if needed.
