I added a column (A) and concatenated the VarName and TimeString =B1&C1 and copied it down the list.
Next, on sheet2, I copied the time string and removed duplicates (easy to do in Excel2007, a few more steps in other versions) I then added the column headings: Pos Pres Setpt Gain Int Then, using vlookup I combined the column heading with the row timestring to form the key. Now, some of your records didn't have Gain or Int values... so to get rid of the #n/a result, I tested for it and inserted a blank.. the resulting formula in B2 was: =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B$1&$A2,Sheet1!$A$1:$D$65000,4,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP(B$1&$A2,Sheet1!$A$1:$D$65000,4,FALSE)) (be sure to make use of the anchors ($) so that you can copy the formula to the other cells) hope this helps, Paul ________________________________ From: jmccaski <jmccask...@gmail.com> To: MS EXCEL AND VBA MACROS <excel-macros@googlegroups.com> Sent: Mon, January 31, 2011 1:52:55 PM Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ How to extract data from an array I have an arry of over 21,000 rows with data in this format: VarName TimeString VarValue Pos 27.01.2011 12:49:35 32 Pres 27.01.2011 12:49:35 -2 Setpt 27.01.2011 12:49:35 100 Gain 27.01.2011 12:49:35 1 Int 27.01.2011 12:49:35 10 Pos 27.01.2011 12:49:36 32 Pres 27.01.2011 12:49:36 -2 Setpt 27.01.2011 12:49:36 100 Pos 27.01.2011 12:49:37 32 Pres 27.01.2011 12:49:37 9 Setpt 27.01.2011 12:49:37 100 Pos 27.01.2011 12:49:38 32 Pres 27.01.2011 12:49:38 9 Setpt 27.01.2011 12:49:38 100 Pos 27.01.2011 12:49:39 32 Pres 27.01.2011 12:49:39 24 Setpt 27.01.2011 12:49:39 100 Pos 27.01.2011 12:49:40 32 Pres 27.01.2011 12:49:40 24 Setpt 27.01.2011 12:49:40 100 Gain 27.01.2011 12:49:40 1 Int 27.01.2011 12:49:40 10 I'm trying to get it into a format something like this in order to chart it: TimeString Pos Press Setpt Gain Int 27.01.2011 12:49:35 32 -2 100 1 10 27.01.2011 12:49:36 32 -2 100 27.01.2011 12:49:37 32 9 100 27.01.2011 12:49:38 32 9 100 27.01.2011 12:49:39 32 24 100 27.01.2011 12:49:40 32 24 100 1 10 Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some important links for excel users: 1.
