Assumptions:

Sheet1!A1:C5 contains your source data

Sheet2!A2:A3 contains 15/7 and 16/7

Sheet2!B1:E1 contains E, W, R, and R

Formula:

Sheet2!B2, copied across and down:

=INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$A$5,SMALL(IF(INDEX(Sheet1!$B$2 :$C$5,0,MATCH($A2,Sheet1!$B$1:$C$1,0))=B$1,ROW(She et1!$A$2:$A$5)-ROW(Sheet1!$A$2)+1),COUNTIF($B$1:B$1,B$1)))

...confirmed with CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER, not just ENTER.

Hope this helps!

Since I don't have a utility to zip files, I won't be able to attach a
sample. But, if you'd like, I can email you one. If you're
interested, send me your email address via Private Message.
