Hi all - i hired someone years ago and they created the below code. Now with COVID i need a small change and cannot locate said person that created this for me.

Column A in the data now has a time in it. I need that time to be cleaned like he did with Column AB. Column A always shows date and time like this:
7/31/2020 13:00:00

I would like to sort by that time first before the other sorts also.

Then have the remaining "time" data printed just like AB's remaining is after being split... but in column A.

I hope that makes sense. and anyone can help as everything i've tried can never get it done correctly.


VBA Code:
Sub Macro1()
Dim LastRow As Long, r As Long
Dim myInput
myInput = InputBox("Enter Docket Date", "Enter Docket Date")
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Jan 12 docket").PageSetup.LeftHeader = "&""Arial,Bold""&28 DOCKET: " & myInput
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Jan 12 docket").PageSetup.RightHeader = "&P"
Sheets(Sheet1.Name).Activate
LastRow = Range("A" & Range("A:A").Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Range("AB2:AB" & LastRow) = Evaluate("=Index(Mid(" & Range("AB2:AB" & LastRow).Address & ", " & "find("":""," & Range("AB2:AB" & LastRow).Address & ") + 2,find("",""," & Range("AB2:AB" & LastRow).Address & ")-find("":""," & Range("AB2:AB" & LastRow).Address & ") -2),)")
'Sort all of the data
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Jan 12 docket").Sort.SortFields.Clear
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Jan 12 docket").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range( _
    "AB2:AB" & LastRow), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, CustomOrder:="Answer Hearing,Aid of Execution,Order Back,Citation,Bond Appearance", DataOption:= _
    xlSortNormal
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Jan 12 docket").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range( _
    "D2:D" & LastRow), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, CustomOrder:="Answer Hearing,Aid of Execution,Order Back,Citation,Bond Appearance", DataOption:= _
    xlSortNormal
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Jan 12 docket").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range( _
    "U2:U" & LastRow), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlDescending, DataOption:= _
    xlSortNormal
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Jan 12 docket").Sort
    .SetRange Range("A1:AB" & LastRow)
    .Header = xlYes
    .MatchCase = False
    .Orientation = xlTopToBottom
    .SortMethod = xlPinYin
    .Apply
End With
'Delete columns that are not needed
Columns("A:C").Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Columns("B:Q").Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Columns("D:H").Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
'Add Notes column
Range("D1") = "Notes"
'Arrange columns correctly
Columns("B:B").Cut
Columns("A:A").Insert
Application.CutCopyMode = False
'Split case_style_comp into two lines
r = 2
Do
    Rows(r + 1).Insert
   
    'Split case sides if "vs." is found
    If InStr(1, Cells(r, 3), "vs.") > 0 Then
        Cells(r + 1, 3) = Trim(Right(Cells(r, 3), Len(Cells(r, 3)) - InStr(1, Cells(r, 3), "vs.") - 4))
        Cells(r, 3) = Trim(Left(Cells(r, 3), InStr(1, Cells(r, 3), "vs.") + 3))
    End If
   
    Cells(r + 1, 2) = Cells(r, 4)
   
    Range("A" & r).Resize(2, 4).BorderAround ColorIndex:=1, Weight:=xlThin
    Range("A" & r).Resize(2, 3).BorderAround ColorIndex:=1, Weight:=xlThin
    r = r + 2
Loop While Cells(r, 1) <> ""
'Clear notes
Range("D2:D" & r).ClearContents
'fontsize
Columns("A:D").Font.Size = 14
'orientation
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.Orientation = xlLandscape
'fit all columns
With Worksheets("Jan 12 docket").PageSetup
.Zoom = False
.FitToPagesWide = 1
End With
'Autofit columns

End Sub

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
Hello krazyness,

This does sound possible, however, it would be very useful to get some sample data from you. It would help me to understand the intent of each action. I can then clean up the code to make it a but more streamlined.

There is my header, and one line of data. There could be anywhere from 1 - 150 lines each with the series of different "type" and different Attorney names.

The output then gives me:

case_fmttypecase_style_compNotes
2020-XX-000123Order BackMREXCEL vs.
DeBergSusie Q

I need to take the time in A2 (13:00:00) and put it in A3 on output.

Ideally I'd also like it to sort that time in order first before any of the other sorting criteria that happened.

Thanks for the sample row. That will certainly help. Could you clarify a couple things:
  • For the sample data you have supplied. What is the sheet name? Jan 12 Docket?
  • Where does the output end up? on the same sheet as the source data?
  • Do you have multiple cases per day? If so, doe they just stack below each other on the Output?
Thanks

yes, sheet(1) is titled Jan 12 Docket

Sheet (2) is calld Prep Docket, and the only thing there is the button to run macro.

The output ends on Jan 12 Docket sheet.

That is also correct. there are between 1-150 cases on that listing.

Thanks for the screenshot, it makes the problem much clearer ?

Could you please check if the DATE in column A is a DATE or TEXT in the source data? The way to check, would be to inset a column to the right of it. And in Cell B2 type the formula
VBA Code:
=A2 + 1

What does B2 return?
