    Question Delete Insert Move columns copy and edit data

    Had created a short video but because I don't post here often I can't send the link and the video files is 8MB which is to large to attach so I will do my best explaining.

    Trying to figure out what would be the best and easiest option to automate the redundant task. This is taking way to long to do manually has there has to be a much easier way.

    Click visit homepage under my profile for a link to video showing what I am trying to do since I can't post link here.

    Have a spreadsheet like the attached with about 80 columns and over 1000 rows.

    We have to delete certain columns each time we get a sheet.

    We have to insert a new column and copy data from column D (Location Data) to the new column then use find&replace to format the data. Example change "greater Atlanta area to Atlanta, GA" change "dublin, Georgia to dublin, GA". This takes time when doing a 1000 rows.

    We also have to move columns like the H column (company position) to B column.

    Not an expert in excel and looking for some guidance for a novice.

    Thanks for any and all assistance!
