Hello Origin Users,

How to combine data from multiple columns into one column in increasing order? Attached an example data table, where I want to combine columns A to G into column H.

Thank you!

Hi,

From the worksheet menu, you can choose Stack Columns setting the Recalculate to None.

To sort, select the output column, right-click and Choose Sort Column.

I hope this helps.



Thanks,

Hi Chris,

Thank you for helping out!

Although that did not give me the required output. Please see the attached file, after stacking and sorting as you suggested, I see some repetition of numbers which I do not understand.

Many thanks

Hi,

Try this- in the Stack Columns dialog, check "Stack By Rows". It'll do what you want and you don't even have to sort it. Sorry I missed that the first time.
