Hi Martin,

In J2, L2, O2, P2 enter Fruit, Veg, Fruit list, Veg list.

O3-O8 list the fruit
P3-P8 list the vegs

In J3 enter =IF(OFFSET($J$2,ROW()-2,5)=0,"",OFFSET($J$2,ROW()-2,5)) and pull down. I pulled down six rows with all these formuls in this example.

In L3 enter =IF(OFFSET($L$2,ROW()-2,4)=0,"",OFFSET($L$2,ROW()-2,4)) and pull down.

In your Basket# chart under apples select the six rows and name that selection "apples". Do the same for all the other fruits & vegs in the chart.

In K3 enter =IF(J3="","",SUM(INDIRECT(J3))) and pull down.
In M3 enter =IF(L3="","",SUM(INDIRECT(L3))) and pull down.

Hopefully this will get you started and you can expand the ranges as needed..

I am pondering the Table 2:Input Table to understand whats going on there....

HTH

Hi Martin,

For the Item= - Category= Table 2: Input Table.

A2 enter "Item="
A3 enter "Category="
B2 to G2 enter the items, apples, potatoes etc. I added radish in this example.
B3 enter =VLOOKUP(B2,$A$9:$B$14,2,0) and pull across to G3
A9 to A14 list all the items and in B9 to B14 enter if its a fruit or a veg..

Is that something like you wanted?

Regards,
Howard

Yes - Many thanks!
