    Question How do I create an auto-prioritized sortable table of tasks based on priority w/o code?

    Initially, I have a prioritized table that would enable a user to change the priority of a row based on its importance. For example, I was envisioning a data validation drop down list containing the numbers 1-n where n is the dynamic number of rows in the table, and where 1 =highest importance, etc.

    If I change the priority 1 to 5, then the priorities for the remaining rows will shift up by one.

    Subsequently, the row with priority 2 will now have priority 1, 3 to 2, 4 to 3, 5 to 4. Ideally, the rows of the table will rearrange based on the new priority, but if that requires code, I can just manually resort it using the header filter dropdown.

    TIA!!

    Hi, welcome to the forum

    Without some sort of VBA running in the background, entered data will not just re-order itself, all by itself. However, you could probably record some code that will, after recording, let you resort at the click of a button?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you
