I have subtotaled data in Excel. How do I only copy the subtotal rows?
Answer:
If you've exported data from FIMS, opened it in Excel, and done subtotalling, you may want to copy just the subtotal lines to a new sheet.
- After subtotalling, click on the 2 square on the left to just see the subtotal lines.
- Highlight the subtotal lines you want to copy.
- Press F5 on your keyboard, click Special, and choose Visible Cells Only.
- Click OK.
- Then click Copy, and Paste the lines to a new location.
- In most versions of Excel you can right click on the menu bar or icon area and select customize.
- If in the newer versions of Excel with the "ribbon" you can only add icons to the quick access toolbar.
- After opening the Customize the Quick Access Toolbar option, choose All Commands from the list filter. (It probably says Popular Commands by default) and scroll down to Select Visible Cells.
- Add this option to the Quick Launch Toolbar.
- Highlight the cells you want to copy.
- Click on the Select Visible Cells Icon.
- Click Edit>Copy or do a Ctrl+C, navigate to the new location and either select Edit> Paste or Ctrl+V.
