turning a worksheet inside out
Don
One way - you have to kid Excel find ount how many names there are using the
COUNTA function e.g =COUNTA(B2:C3), this is the number we work with
The formulas go in column B but before that we need to enter something into
column A that we can count a space will do - then copy this down the number
of rows you counta function gave you.
I entered this in B6:
=IF(COUNTA($A$6:A6)<=COUNTA($B$2:$C$3)/2,INDEX($B$2:$B$3,MATCH(B2,B$2:B$3,0)),INDEX($C$2: $C$3,MATCH(C2,C$2:C$3,0)))
and C6
=IF(COUNTA($A$6:$A6)<=COUNTA($B$2:$C$3)/2,$B$1,$C$1)
and copied down
This results in:
Bob taska
Alice taska
Ted taskb
Bob taskb
