Hello all,

I tried searching for a thread that addresses this question, but I was not able to locate one. I may not have worded my search correctly.

I receive a hospital's accounting trial balance that has hospital department numbers and names in row 1 and 2 and account type numbers and names in column A and B.

What I want to do is the following:

1. Combine each department number with each account type number with a dash in the middle.
2. Combine each department name with each account type name with a dash in the middle.
3. Pull the balance where the department and account type intersect.

See below for a visual example that is likely easier to understand.

What I receive:
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500, align: left"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]10[/TD]
[TD]20[/TD]
[TD]30[/TD]
[TD]40[/TD]

[TD]10,000[/TD]
[TD]5,000[/TD]
[TD]0[/TD]
[TD]2,000[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]









The result I would like to get to:

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]

[TD]Account Number[/TD]
[TD]Account Name[/TD]
[TD]Account Balance[/TD]

I'm trying to find the least time consuming way to get to the end result above. I would be open to solutions using formulas, VBA (very little experience, but will work with this if there is a solution using VBA), or Power Query. Also please let me know if there is a current thread that addresses this question.

OS: Windows 7
Excel : Excel 2010 with Power Query Addin installed

Thank you.

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
