Format A Single List Into Multiple Lists

May 26, 2009

I have a single list of data that I am trying to convert into multiple lists. Here is a sample of what I have:
COL-A COL-B
1 Animals
2 Dogs
3 Bulldogs
4 Missy
4 Rex
4 Fred
3 Terriers...............

Hard to describe, but the 1 should have the 2's under it. Each 2 should have the 3's. Each 3 should have the 4's, etc... I am not sure how to put tables into this so I will try to draw a few.

COL-A
Animals
Dogs
Cats

COL-B
Dogs
Bulldogs
Terriers
Dalmations..................

The order of the columns do not matter. If anyone has any ideas how I could do this that would be great. The data is on seperate sheets. I would love to be able to do it with INDEX and MATCH
criteria, but a VBA solution would be acceptable.

Copy Multiple Lists To Single List

Aug 27, 2007

I am trying to get the data that is produced on 15 sheets copied into column A as a continuous list (concatenated?) in a sheet called "Keywords". I have tabs labeled Output-1 through to Output-15 comprising of column A in each ( No headers ). Each tab/column will have similar data but of variable size, some may even have no data at all. (the data is updated/pulled into each column using a different formula on each row)

Syncing Two Lists Of Data For One List Of Individuals - One List Has Multiple Entries

Jan 20, 2014

I need to consolidate these two lists of data into one list.

First set is just a basic list of individuals with their data.

Second set is multiple entries for those same individuals. Each entry shows a subscription to a programme. The final single sheet should have one row per individual which shows all of the programmes they are subscribed to.

See attached, example sheet.

The real list is 3000 IDs, so need some kind of formula to do this.

Using Lists On Multiple Tabs To Populate Tab With List Summary

Aug 18, 2013

I am trying to setup a file that has three tabs - LIST, COLOR AND PLANT.

I want to be able to select a color or colors (red, blue, yellow, green) and a plant or plants (tree, shrub, flower, grass) using radio buttons, maybe?

If i chose red and blue for a color and chose tree, shrub and grass for plants, i would like to populate the LIST tab with these items.

I'd also like to give an associated value to each color and plant. for example, for the colors, i could choose values between 1, 2 and 3. if i chose red 1, it would add "red 1" to the LIST. if i wanted to later change it to 3, i could do that on the COLOR tab and the LIST tab would update automatically.

date3-1

I have searched and found almost similar questions and tried to apply it to this case, but not being versed in VBA it was a failure on my part

Creating Single List With No Blanks From Multiple Columns?

May 2, 2014

I typically use the following formula to create a list with no blanks, when I have a single column of data. Is there a way to do the same thing when you have multiple columns of data (side by side to make it simple) and you want to create a master list that gets rid of the blanks, and keeps them in the order they appear (by column)?

[Code] .....

For example, if I had data (with some blank cells randomly placed) in columns AM and AN, and I wanted a singe master list in one column of all non-blank cells in column AL, followed by column AM, etc.? Is there a formula to do this, or must I resort to a macro?

Format Multiple Cell Values Displayed In Single Cell?

May 24, 2012

I have the following data on a spreadsheet created by a formula:

A1: 1.1234
A2. 2.234
A3: 3.34

I have the data formatted to only have two decimal places so it looks like this:

A1: 1.12
A2: 2.23
A3: 3.34

I'm using the following formula in cell B1 to display the values of those cells in a single cell in order A1,A2,A3:

=A1 & "," & A2 & "," & A3

However when the values of A1, A2 and A3 appear in the in cell B1 they appear as: 1.1234,2.234,3.34

Is there a way I can edit the formula or format something so the values in B1 appear as with only two decimal places? i.e 1.12,2.23,3.34

Merging Lists From Two Sheets Into Single Column

Feb 28, 2014

In Sheet 1, I have a list starting in row L1.

Col L
John Doe
New York
Past Locations
Previous Jobs
Male
Previous Schools

In Sheet 2, I have another list where the user will manually enter sub elements for some of the elements of Sheet1. It looks like this...

Column A |Column B |Column C
Past Locations|Previous Jobs|Previous Schools

Below that last row of headers, the user will make inputs. the list for each column should be able to run down to say 100. The inputs may look like this....

AZ |Plumber |XYZ Elementary
MD |Waiter |ABC High School
IL
CA

Now, the problem is I need to combine these two into a single column in Sheet 3 in a special way. The output would look like this.

John Doe
New York
Past Locations
AZ
MD

[Code] .....

Notice that I am taking the list in Sheet 1 as is, until i run into a value that is the header in Sheet 2, in which case I take all the contents of that header column until I am done, and then go back to sheet one, and repeat the process. I need the output in one column in Sheet 3; i don't need any special formatting.

Make 1 Unique Email List From 2 Other Email Lists (one List Minus Other)

Feb 26, 2013

Imagine this..

In Column A I have 500 email addresses.
In Column B I have 2000 email addresses.

Now in Column C, I want to have all the email addresses in Column B MINUS all the email addresses in Column A.

IE: So basically if Column B had 300 of the same email addresses in Column A, then Column C will have 1,700 email addresses (2,000 - 3000) = 1,7000.

Produce Lists From Master List

Oct 24, 2011

I have a set of unique customer names in a column A, say A1 to A200 in my data sheet. These customers have route numbers assigned to them (defined by the client) column B - B1 to B200. The route no.s are 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, & 8. The column lists can be of varying lengths but no more than 500 rows. I want to relate the routes to 8 separate sheets in the workbook. In each sheet I want to extract a column of customers based on the route number. So if the first customer in column A is route '1' (column B) it populates the first entry in sheet 'Route 1' with the customer name as so on for the rest of the sheets.

Populating A List Based On Four Toher Lists

Oct 3, 2008

I have Columns A:D with a heading at the top. the user can then type organisation names under the correct column. There is a maximum of 30 entries (rows 2:32).

Problem One:
Column E is a hidden column and I need cells E2 and downwards to be a list which gets populated by ALL the organisation names inserted into $A$2:$D$32. I don't want there to be any blank cells until the last entry in column E (if that makes sense). how to populate this list?

Problem Two:
At another part of the worksheet, I have five cell where the user has to select from a list. The five cells correspond to the lists in columns A:E. Is there any way to avoid having blank options in a list using data validation (say if the user has not entered 30 organisations into one of the columns)?

Dependent Lists With Spaces In The Main List

Aug 11, 2009

I have worked on the excel sheet Test.xls(Attached) to create a simple uniform order form. Unfortunately, I am not able to get through the 3rd column. Let me explain. 3 Columns references below 3 steps

1. I selected the first dropdown item and selected the item

2. Corresponding value is shown based on the first choice.

3. This value or drop-down is not shown.

In my main "LISTS" sheet, I have items that include one of the item for example... Blue Socks & Shoes with characters "&" and spaces.

All this could be solved if I maintain the following idea.

1. Have the main list without spaces.

2. The corresponding heading is related to the items in the main list (without spaces).

3. Enter the Headings for the sublists and sub-sub lists without any spaces.

Great..I am getting lost with this..Can anyone help me.

You will get more clearer once you see the attachment.

Sorting List Of Items Into 2 Separate Lists

Oct 25, 2011

I work for a printing company that prints labels. We have 6 printing presses, lets call them A,B,C,D,E & F. Certain labels can only be printed on printing press F.

From our business system I can run a report in excel format giving details of all the labels that we have sold in the present month. I need split that report into 2 separate excel spreadsheets; 1 showing everything that was printed on presses A to E and the other showing everything printed on press F.

I also have another excel spreadsheet which gives a complete list of all the labels that have to be printed on press F.

Every label that we print has a part code and both spreadsheets show this part code so that would be the linking factor between the 2 sheets.
