I have several people that i meet every week, but there are some small changes from week to week, who i meet. But most of the time its the same people. So every week I make a list of all the people I will meet. (From a list a get from my employer)
I have to meet them at there place and I have a schedule to keep. So I have the hole data base sorted by what time and place. I get a new list every week.
So I think i can use Excel to sort this out for meg :D
I was thinking... As MOST of the data is the same from week to week. I will make a list in Exel...
The Maine database... "Page 1 / Database" (50 to 70 different places)
The IMPORTANT thing and what I don't know how to do...
"HOW do i make a row with the option to mark a candidate for my "print-list" I want Excel to take the people I marked and copy them to the "print-list" and in the order by numbers."
O | 1 | John Doe | Street 1 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
v | 2 | Doe John | Street 100 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
v | 3 | Sam Doe | Street 19 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
O | 4 | Doe Sam | Street 21 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
v | 5 | Mike Doe | Street 51 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
O | 6 | Doe Mike | Street 71 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
v | 7 | Jim Doe | Street 881 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
O | 8 | Doe Jim | Street 11 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
1 Row - Going to "print-list" or not?
2 Row - What place in the schedule, by time and place (I sort them myself)
3 Row - Name
4 Row - Address
5 Row - Address
6 Row - Mobile nr.
7 Row - Remarks about the place
8 Row - About the person I will meet

The Route this week... "Page 2 / Print-list"
2 | Doe John | Street 100 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
3 | Sam Doe | Street 19 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
5 | Mike Doe | Street 51 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
7 | Jim Doe | Street 881 | Town 1234 | Mobile | Remarks | Notes
So in short, I want Excel to make me a printable list of the selected people from my database of all the people I have been to before.
The reason I need this is to do the "routing" quickly and efficiently. Since I already have done it ones I know what person is first and who is next. So one more is just ONE check to fine out where in the order this person goes. As it is now i re-do it ALL every week. But I know the PC can help me here. But my Excel skills do not match my imagination :D So I was hoping someone has a great way to solve this problem.
