Unclutter Your Spreadsheets But Keep On Sorting!
Many people use Excel as their tool of choice and
happily bend over backwards to get the job done.
However, Excel's sorter is too limited for the things
people use spreadsheets for, forcing them to make their
data fit the sorter.
This leads to clutter on the sheets and all sorts of
hazards creep in. Spreadsheets become hard to
understand and difficult to maintain. Chances are that
only the developer of the sheet knows how to use it.
LAselect, however, moves the sorting solution out of
harm's way to a macro. It's internals can be tailored
to any kind of data. Code is kept at a central location
and does not have to be duplicated for reuse, lowering
maintenance cost and time.
Standard sorters only handle simple data but an
estimated 80% of information does not qualify as
simple. We need a new approach and that is the LAselect
FrameWork, a fast programmable list generator. Its
separate input/output stages allow the user to freely
interpret and reproduce the information. LAselect's
interface does not require in-depth knowledge of Visual
Basic.
LAselect sorts alphabetically, numerically, weighted,
complex, fuzzy, etc. Regular Expressions sort embedded
strings like postal or product codes.
Some examples of what LAselect would do:
o Conventional sorting without Excel's
limitations
o Sort VBA arrays
o Create sorted Shortlists, Target-Lists, Reports
o Sort using Regular Expressions
o Sort IP-numbers or Chemical Nomenclature
o Sort on implied or weighted values
o Data-Mining
LAselect differs much from conventional sorting. Take
the time to see what this engine can do for you or
you'll miss out on chances to increase your
productivity!
