Combine Multiple Entries with differing amounts of entries
C2:
=IF(ISERR(SMALL(IF(MATCH(Name,Name,0)=ROW(INDIRECT ("1:"&ROWS(Name))),MATCH(Name,Name,0)),ROWS($1:1)) ),"",INDEX(Name,SMALL(IF(MATCH(Name,Name,0)=ROW(IN DIRECT("1:"&ROWS(Name))),MATCH(Name,Name,0)),ROWS( $1:1))))
ctrl+shift+enter, not just enter
copy down as far as needed
D2:
=IF(ISERR(SMALL(IF(Name=$C2,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&ROWS (Qual)))),COLUMNS($D:D))),"",INDEX(Qual,SMALL(IF(N ame=$C2,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&ROWS(Qual)))),COLUMNS($D :D))))
ctrl+shift+enter, not just enter
Copy across and down
The first formula returns unique Names, and the second formula returns
Qualifications

Good afternoon! Once again I come back to the experts for some assistance. I
can't seem to grasp my head around this to figure it out.
There are multiple entries for multiple people listing different
qualifications, and I would like to combine them to make one entry. Here is
my example:
John Smith 1A
John Smith 2A
John Smith 3B
Jane Doe 1A
Jane Doe 3B
Sally Smith 1A
Sally Smith 2A
Sally Smith 3B
Sally Smith 4B
What I would like to have is:
John Smith 1A, 2A, 3B
Jane Doe 1A, 3B
Sally Smith 1A, 2A, 3B, 4B
Is this possible without the manual work? I have approximately 15,000
entries.
Thank you for any help you are able to provide.
