City, State, Zip, Area Code - with - Company Name match

**gmjhunter** · 02-05-2015, 06:46 PM

I've downloaded a .xls file with Area Code listing that matches to a Primary City Name, State and Zip Code. I wanted to use this as my start.

Now I have a sheet with 5 columns: Company Name, First Name, Last Name, Phone, Area Code.

What I'm trying to do is get my list to show the 4 columns from the downloaded sheet. I just need to match my list with the correct City, State, etc.

How could I copy my sheet into the download spreadsheet and then sort - my Area Code columns to match with the correct City, State, etc columns and keep all the data?

Hi GMJ,

Welcome to the Forum!

I suggest that you use a dictionary approach thus obviating the need to sort. If you want to post a sample sheet, I'll write a routine for you

Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

Remember to desensitize the data.
