Hi, hoping that somebody may be able to help with some code to help reorganise some info...

Please see raw data on the left: there are 2 columns of data plus a helper column.

On the right is the (hopefully)! reorganised data.

Effectively, we would like one single row of data for each Line-ID on the reorganised version. And to have the different Part Numbers going across the columns (from H to L).

819232Sn54LS2nd
919232MC54LS3rd
10192331234561st

Sheet1


Just to add to the complications (oops!), we'd like to this to work with

- larger sets of raw data (up to 100K rows)
- we'd like the Part Numbers to keep their upper and lower case characters
NB the Part Numbers themselves can be alpha (a-z or A-Z), numeric (0-9) or alphanumeric and also contain other characters (dashes, slashes, space etc)
- sometimes the Part Numbers can be blank

Hope this helps.

Huge thanks for any help!

Ok, how about
VBA Code:
Sub ellison()
   Dim Ary As Variant, Nary As Variant
   Dim r As Long, nr As Long, nc As Long
   
   With Sheets("sheet1")
      Ary = .Range("B1:C" & .Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value2
   End With
   ReDim Nary(1 To UBound(Ary), 1 To 1000)
   For r = 2 To UBound(Ary)
      If Ary(r, 1) <> Ary(r - 1, 1) Then
         nr = nr + 1
         nc = 2
         Nary(nr, 1) = Ary(r, 1)
         Nary(nr, 2) = Ary(r, 2)
      Else
         nc = nc + 1
         Nary(nr, nc) = Ary(r, 2)
      End If
   Next r
   Sheets("sheet1").Range("G2").Resize(nr, UBound(Nary, 2)).Value = Nary
End Sub

Solution
Oh wow that is absolutely amazing...........Huge thanks, solution found!!!

Now that I think about it, would it be possible to tweak the macro to include a 3rd column in the raw data?

(I took the helper column out and replaced it with a mfr column which would be great to include in the reorganised data - if poss!)

Something like this:

.....WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you very much indeed. That works beautifully.

And works beautifully on a 100K set of data too!

Absolutely brilliant, very thankful indeed.
