How to sort groups of rows in Excel

In my day job, I work with a software product that universities use to manage the business of running a university (such software packages are called ERP's, which stands for Enterprise Resource Planning, and the name of the product is Colleague, put out and supported by a company called Ellucian.)

The ERP has screens (i.e. web pages) university staff and faculty use to access and maintain information in the ERP. Each web page/screen is accessed by either clicking directly on the screen's name/description on the ERP's UI menu, or by directly entering what Ellucian calls a mnemonic, which is usually just a short, unique acronym for the description of the screen.

I keep a text file list of some of the more useful mnemonics and their descriptions for quick access to them, especially the ones I use infrequently.

Part of the list is shown below (after I've pasted it into Excel):



I usually just append new entries to the list, but now there are so many, I felt it would be nice to copy the list and paste it into Excel and sort it, and then copy the sorted list back into my mnemonic list text file.

So that's what I did, thinking it would be a small matter to sort it alphabetically. I soon learned sorting lists that look like what's shown in the example, is not something easily done in Excel.

I searched Google for "How to sort groups of rows in Excel", and what I found is that apparently there is nothing built into Excel that allows sorting groups of a fixed number of rows, using the first row of each group as what to sort by.

I did find many suggestions on adding columns to the spreadsheet, so as to use them for sorting, but either nothing perfectly addressed what I wanted to do, or suggestions were overly complicated.

I'll explain more about what I ended up doing below this next image, which resulted in a sorted list, using the first row of each group as the key, while maintaining the fixed number of rows for each group:



I did have to add two new columns (B and C)... there's just no way around it, but once I worked out the formulas, it wasn't very complicated at all, and I got the exact results I was looking for.

Here is the formula for column B:
=INDIRECT("A"&ROW() - ((IF(MOD(ROW()-4,7)=0, 7, MOD(ROW()-4,7)))-1))

Here is the formula for column C:
=(IF(MOD(ROW()-4,7)=0, 7, MOD(ROW()-4,7)))

Obviously, adjust the formulas if you're using different columns.
Also, my list starts at row 5, and each group is 7 rows deep. So if your list starts at a different row, replace all the 4's in the formulas with your starting row MINUS ONE.
And if your number of rows making up each group is more/less than 7, then change all the 7's with your number of rows making up each group to be sorted. Your list can start on any row (assuming you change the formulas accordingly), and all the groups can be any number of rows each, BUT EACH GROUP MUST BE MADE UP OF THE SAME COUNT OF ROWS.

The formula for column B calculates the row that is the first row of any particular group, and pulls its column A value into each column B cell.

The formula for column C just calculates which row of 7 that particular row appears in.

Paste these formulas into columns B and C of the first row of the first group in the list, and then using Excel's Home > Editing> Fill, copy them DOWN to the rest of the column B/C rows/cells.

Finally, to sort the list, use the Data > Sort function, and make the dialog box that pops-up, look like this:



Before actually sorting the list (i.e. clicking the dialogue box's "OK" button), make sure to set the "My data has headers" checkbox accordingly, and click the "Sort > Options..." tab to set the "Sort top to bottom" radio button as well.

Click "OK", and you should end up with something similar to what's showing in the second image above.

Once you're done copy all of column A, and paste it into your original text file, or just name the spreadsheet, save it, and use it instead.

Use the comments if you have any questions or issues to report.

Hope this helps, and thanks for reading.
