For my job I do reports every morning that takes forever. I have a macro that will set the page up for me but I don't know how to make it read the specific columns I need removed or cut and pasted onto another spreadsheet. Due to the fact my reports are different each day I need a macro that can actually read my report and sort accordingly.

It would help if you included an example of the kind of data you want to typeset and of the desired layout. – Jake Sep 9 '11 at 6:05

The way I read this you want to remove columns from one table and insert it again into another one. This isn't simple. There is already an answered question about removing a column here, but the pasting part would be quite difficult. – Martin Scharrer♦ Sep 9 '11 at 7:15

Two questions before one can answer your question. How do you generate the data and in what format is it. – Yiannis Lazarides Sep 9 '11 at 9:48

I'm voting to close this as "not a real question" as it is difficult to help you without any additional information. If you can provide us with that information, either ask a new question or edit this one and flag it for a moderator's attention - then they can reopen it. – Andrew Stacey Sep 21 '11 at 10:07
