# ExcelColorizeRows

**Group your data visually!**

This script colorizes and thickens borders of Excel rows based on one or more columns.

## How to implement

1. Copy the code

2. Open your document

3. Press `Alt+F11` (`Fn+F11` on Mac) to open VBA Editor

4. Open desired sheet's code

5. Paste the code

Now you can save your document as `Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook (*.xlsm)` format to use it later.

## How to use

1. Sort your table based on intended columns

2. Determine columns in the script (See next title)

3. (Optional) Select entire sheet or table and from `Home` tab, click on `Borders` drop-down and select `All Borders`

4. Press `Alt+F8` (`Fn+F8` on Mac) to open Macro dialog box

5. Select `[YourSheet].Colorize` and click Run

## Configuration

You can make some configurations by pressing `Alt+F11` (`Fn+F11` on Mac) and editing respective part of the code:

- **`Cols`: For example, write `Cols = [{5, 6}]` to colorize based on columns 5 and 6 and write `Cols = [{1}]` to colorize only based on first column.**

- `HeaderRowsCount`: Number of rows at the header to exclude from colorizing, default: `1`.

- `UseColor`, `UseBorder` (`True`/`False`): Restrict function of the script, default: `True`.

- `BreakRows` (`True`/`False`): Breaks page at columns' change, default: `False`.

- `AddHeaderCols` (`True`/`False`): Adds columns' caption at the beginning of each group, default: `False`.

- `fixed`, `random`, `InANewRow`, `Delimiter`, `ChangeStyle`, `InCol`: Detailed configurations.

## Example 1

(Sample data from [contextures.com](https://www.contextures.com/xlsampledata01.html))

In example above, rows are sorted based on columns 2 and 3 and then, colorizing took place on same columns.

Configuration: `Cols = [{2, 3}]`
