Hi folks, I am running into an issue with restructuring a database and
feel their must be an easier way than by hand and it seems someone must have run into this in the past. I have a spreadsheet that is structured as follows: Last Name First Name Date of Birth Sending Location Receiving Location Equipment Frankfort John DOB1 School1 Receiving1 Equipment1 Frankfort John DOB1 School1 Receiving1 Equipment2 Frankfort John DOB1 School1 Receiving1 Equipment3 Smith Ron DOB2 School2 Receiving2 EquipmentA Smith Ron DOB2 School2 Receiving2 EquipmentC What I need to do is restructure this sheet into a single row for each individual based on last name AND first name with Equipment listed in ascending columns instead of rows. Like: Last Name First Name Date of Birth Sending Location Receiving Location Equipment Equipment Equipment Frankfort John DOB1 School1 Receiving1 Equipment1 Equipment2 Equipment3 Smith Ron DOB2 School2 Receiving2 EquipmentA EquipmentB I have an indeterminant number of Last and first names (my table is 300 individuals and growing) and each individual has an indeterminant number of equipment pieces (some have 1, some have 20+). My table currently only has a column range of A to E, so horizontal growth for as many equipment columns is fine. Does anybody have a script that will do this? It seems like it should be simple I am just not VB Savey. Many thanks in advance, Ryan |
