I wonder if someone might help me.
I've been asked by my local political party agent (who believes that I am an expert in Excel...) to create an election prediction document for the forthcoming general election so he can model various outcomes. I have a list of all 632 GB constituencies with columns for each party's predicted votes based on a changeable increase in their 2017 percentage vote share. One column shows the gains each party makes. I want to extract a list - that will change as different predictions are fed into the figures - of seats all parties gain. I want that list to be of the constituency (column A), the % majority (Column K) and the column that actually says the gaining party (column N). I then want that list to be sorted according to winning party and percentage majority. I have tried recording a macro by copying the cells, filtering and sorting them etc but the macros crash when I run them, for some reason. Is there anyone out there who can suggest a formula for creating this list?
Any help and advice would be sincerely appreciated.
Regards.
Andrew
