I have a spreadsheet that has identical data in column A throughout the worksheet and want to take data in columns F and G and combine them all onto one row. An example of the data is attached.

I have a need to combine multiple columns into a long list of results in 2 final columns. Here is my example...
Current layout with varying number of data points per row...
ColumnA | ColumnB | ColumnC | ColumnD | etc...
example1 | Test1 | Test2 | Test3 | Test4
example2 | Option1 | Option2
example3 | Number1 | Number2 | Number3 | Number4 | Number5
Desired Result
ColumnA | ColumnB
example1 | Test1
example1 | Test2
example1 | Test3
example1 | Test4
example2 | Option1
example2 | Option2
example3 | Number1
example3 | Number2
and so on and on and on until all rows have been filled in down the file...
Is this possible?
My workbook contains information about investigations. Each investigation gets a number and a line in the workbook. Many infos are stored: dates, subject, ...
A dynamic table contains all those informations, which allows me to manipulate data pretty easily.
Issue: For one of the characteristics of the investigation (let's say names), several results might have to be entered. For example, one investigation can have 3 different names, the next one only 2 and another one can have 6.
This causes a problem regarding the manipulation of the data.
Right now I have 10 columns "name 1" "name 2" .... and only those who need to be filled are filled. I can't however efficiently manipulate the data. For example, George could have been entered in "name 1" for the investigation 1 and in "name 2" for another investigation. Using a pivottable, to track George I'd have to select him in all 10 columns.
It seems to me the best choice would be to somehow index the names into a single column with each name linked to its investigation number..
With the index function I have 2 issues:
- It starts by going down the 1st column, then goes to 2nd, ... where I'd want all names of 1 row then names of 2nd row.
Solved this with this formula:
I turned my "names" columns in a ranged name "Names"
but - When fields are empty I get 0s. When I try to remove them with an if statement, it'll just give me empty cells. I'd prefer to skip the empty cells.
Also, I don't know how to 'link' them to my investigation number...
I have this (dynamic) table:
investigation number name 1 name 2 name 3
001 George Paul
002 Chris George Suzy
And I want something like this:
Investigation number Names
001 George
001 Paul
002 Chris
002 George
002 Suzy
I have attached a spreadsheet. I have a data set with ID's in column A and data in columns to the right. If an ID has only one entry then there will only be a value in column B if an ID has 2 entries then there will be a value in Columns B and C, if they have 3.......... And so on....
In my attached file I have created a macro that filters each column and copies the values to another sheet. If an ID had 5 entries (B-F) I would want to have 5 rows for that ID. The attached example macro does what I want but the real data has over 50 columns. Is there a more efficient way of doing this?
I'm trying to combine multiple columns into 1 column in Excel. I've searched a few places but most of them are tailored for a specific sheet and my VBA skills are elementary
My table looks like this (there could be more than 5 columns... it's somewhat dynamic based on the data given). Note that some columns could have no data, and the size may be different, some have 100 rows of data, while others have 5.
Firm A

I am trying to combine the data of 31 columns into one column on a separate worksheet. The number of pieces of data in each column is different and as a result I am hung up on how to code the macro so that it automatically moves to copying the next column when a blank cell is reached, as it currently copies until it reaches the 100th row and then moves to the next column even though they're blank.
Sub CopyColumns()
Dim improw As Long, impcolumn As Long, MyCell
Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet
Dim improw2 As Long, impcolumn2 As Long
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Set ws1 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Data")
Set ws2 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Details")
'paste location on ws2
improw2 = 2
impcolumn2 = 2
There are column headers for the data on ws1 in row 2. The other thing I would like to do if possible is copy these column headers from ws1 onto ws2 by pasting them to the left of each piece of data (impcolumn2 - 1).

Sample file attached. How do I combine the data in columns B-E into column A? Obviously in my sample file you'd use a simple cut/paste but my actual file has hundreds of columns and rows so cut/paste isn't an option. I need to move all the data into column A.

I could maybe
- Write all names in 1 cell, separated by something and use somemorething to virtually split that
- Write each name in a row below, with the other characteristics copy-pasted (although then if I have 2 names and thus 2 rows, Excel will consider I have 2 different investigations).

I am trying to combine data from multiple columns into one column. The way my data is set up there shouldn't be any columns that have data in the same row. See below for my example.

I wanted to see if it were possible to combine multiple worksheets into one new worksheet, but without duplicating columns with the same heading, enabling the data to fall into the correct column if it's shared in multiple worksheets, and adding columns if their unique. Furthermore, if there are a few "leading" columns, i.e. ones that are shared in every sheet and never move from where they are, to include those as the leading columns in the new sheet. I'm unable to post an attachment, but I'll try to paint a picture. This is on a much smaller scale than intended, but I want to combine Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 to form Sheet 3 (which I've manually copied to look how I would want it to look if the formula/code works properly). Columns A, B, and C are the "leading" columns I was referencing, whereas any of the following columns may or may not be shared in the various worksheets, but should still be included and combined if they're the same. There also might be a different number of columns depending on the sheet. I consider myself somewhat of an intermediate user, and I am familiar with using VBA codes for formulas should that be the proper remedy.

My experience level with excel only includes some basics like vlookup, match and recorded macros, although I have used vba code for a macro that met my needs. I have a parts list for a PCB that has many different parts. Some of the parts are used multiple times across different reference designations("Reference" column in the file). I have shown a desired format and the original format below. Since the item number has blanks across the reference designators I haven't found a solution that would work for me.

I have about 20 workbooks with different file names for different projects all saved in the same folder. Each workbook has about 10 worksheets and each worksheet is named in a similar fashion in each of the 20 workbooks (eg. revenue, cost, variance etc.).

View 9 Replies View RelatedEssentially need a macro to combine the columns into 1 column.
Need a Macro to put everything in each "box" into one column, for example CU is the end of the first box, CV to GP is the second box ect. Essentially a box is the row where the yellow line is to the column where the yellow column is.
The problem is the setup of these colums change, sometimes they are bigger sometimes smaller and the spaces beneth it change. Sometimes I might have a column which goes to row 18 followed by 3 blank rows then the yellow box
I first design the first colum then select that and drag across to complete the rest ( my real file has links ect )
So I need a macro in which it can scan the first column up to the yellow line then put everthing within a "box " into 1 column, each )
then repeat the same process for other boxes with each box being put in its own column ( preferablly leaving an empty column in between )
THe file itself will help clarify any problem, if this request is not possible if it could combine every column into 1 column ( along with the spaces to the yellow line ) that would help also, i could manually cut each box into another column then.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to do something that would look at column B and for each value that is the same in any row in column B, it would look to column A and add that value into a text string of all those values in column C separated by commas.

Is there a simple way to do it ?
I have 6 spreadsheets all within the same folder, these are pretty much identical (rows, colums, sheets within them) apart from the names of the files.
I then have a master spreadsheet within the same folder where I want to combine all the data, from all the sheets within each book (if that makes sense!) apart from the data on the last sheet within each book as this is the reference data, onto one sheet within this master file. If possible I only want to copy rows accross which have complete data too.
So: (names not correct)
From book1.xls copy all data on sheets (sheet1, sheet2 etc) except last sheet
From book2.xls copy all data on sheets (sheet1, sheet2 etc) except last sheet
combine onto masterfile.xls on sheet1.

I would like to do a paste special values when the consolidation takes place.
I'm trying to combine data from several worksheets (one sheet per workbook) into a single, consolidated master worksheet for reporting purposes (filters and pivot tables). We do not need to keep formulas for the master worksheet, only values and formats. Individual worksheets are used by different users to capture case data in a Human Services field. Column headings are identical, but rows contain data on individual cases. I'm trying to find a relatively easy way to combine multiple worksheets into a single master. After I establish the worksheets and technique, it will be operated by extremely basic users so I've been reluctant to use extensive macros.
Because of complex reporting needs, the exact combination of worksheets being combined for reporting may vary. For example, one time I may combine Tom, Dick and Harry, another time Tom, Dick and Bob, and yet another time Tom, Dick, Bob and Harry. Obviously, one method is to cut and paste the rows into a single worksheet. Are there more elegant solutions that could easily be handled by very basic users? Worksheets are stored in a single folder along with a separate worksheet used for validation rules (as you can guess, this would ideally be a database application but for various economic and political reasons we are using Excel). One possibility, if straightforward, is to use Access to consolidate data then export it back to Excel for analysis. I've scoured the various threads but have not found a situation mirroring mine. The number of rows for each worksheet is generally less than one hundred, but there will be a few exceeding several hundred. Total numer of rows of the resultant master worksheet will not exceed 10,000.
I have 2 columns "H" and "I" from line 6 to 409. Each cell may start with AR , MA or a number. If cell H6 starts with AR I would like to put that cell into B6. If H6 does not have AR then I would like to check I6 for AR, and put that into B6 if it's found. If I don't find AR in either I would check them both for MA, and write the cell that finds MA into B6. If the AR or MA are not found then I would want it left blank. I did try
IF(FIND("AR",$H7,1),$H7,IF(FIND("AR",$I7,1),$I7,IF(FIND("MA",$H7,1),$H7,IF(FIND("MA",$I7,1),$I7," ")))) in B7.

What I'm after is an easier way to get data combined without having to type it all out. If you look above I would like to have A-C actually as dropbox's or listbox's, something I can click, then drop down to the proper name and select it. Then on E I'd like a timestamp for when this action was done with the date and time as shown along with the reason. Then in F I'd like the Name fields combined so I just need to right-click on F and copy/paste into the other program I use.
Maybe one column can just be the names of everyone with a selection box and I click this stuff then when I am done it resets?
I have 100 columns in 1 worksheet, each column has 200 rows, I want to combine all these columns into a single column.
Therefore, Column 101 or a new worksheet Column 1, will have 20000 names.
I need two solutions, if possible. One macro and then a "poor man's way" in case the macro breaks down the road. something where I can do it with copy/paste, formulas etc.
I will just use letters and numbers to make it easer.........
Column A might have 10 rows, with 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and 10 as the data.
Column B might have 7 rows with A,B,C,D,E,F and G as the data.
I need column C to have 70 rows, with 1A, 1B, 1C, etc. .......through 9E, 9F through 9G as the data.
