Pulling non-zero data from table
I have a large table with around 30 columns and about a hundred rows. This
table is used to break down the ingredients (columns) to make items (rows). I'd like to choose one of the items from a drop-down box, and have the function pull all the non-zero entries for that item from the table. *********** sugar wheat gum coloring flour Pop Tart 20g 5g Bread 1g 200g 200g Gummy Bear 100g 15g 5g *********** I hope that formats okay... So, the result if I chose "bread" would be a vertical list... Bread Sugar - 1g wheat - 200g flour - 200g The function would ignore all the blank cell's, and return only the ones with data. How would I get started here? Thanks! |
