Don't hesitated to say this is too much for a forum question....
I am attempting to place a series of values from a column into rows, but the details of this task are much more than typical transpose. I have played with formulas, MATCH, OFFSET, etc. and got tangled up. That still my be good way to go. Here bleow is DATA is in COL A and B. Output starts in COL C and continues across as many columns as needed. When values repeat in A, transpose the values from COL B for that repeated COL A value starting at COL C through possibly 100 columns, i.e. COL A value could repeat 100 times. It is important to note that in a grouping of repeaded rows (defined by repeating value in COL A), the resulting transposed values from COL B repeat down for each repeated row. This is why all the rows of data for the f's are the same-- this is intentional. In other words, transpose all the values in COL B for a group of repeating values in A, and transpose across the row containing first value of COL A, the fill down identically for all COL A group. Why am I attempting this? It is to identify identical groupings of values, e.g. somewhere else in the list there will be another group of rows, say 4 rows with "z" in COl A, and those four rows have the same values as found in COL B, therefore one can say group f and group z are identical-- a list of identical groups is the objective. There may be several identical groupings, not just two. ALternatives are welcome. (In my soloution I expect to concatenate the values in COL C... and sort on that concatenation, then subtotal/count.)
