I need to sort Excel data files based on user defined parameters, create lists of files based on the sort, build an archieve of 'rejected' files and keep track of some statistics on the search results. I am clue-less when it comes to this stuff so the finished product needs to have a nice, simple, user-friendly sheet on the front end where criteria for the search parameters can be changed - even by a dope like me. I have attached some definitions and rules defining what I am looking for to this message. I tried to upload some sample data as a ".xls" file but this thing wouldn't let me do that but it would let me attach the stuff as a ".txt" file. However, the data I will be getting will be in ".xls" formated files. This is a paying gig, I also have beer. I think I set up my 'account' so that you can e-mail me directly....
