Hey guys, so I have a pivot that looks something like this:


Name | Class | Apples | Oranges | Pears | Cranberries
----|-----|------|-------|-----|-----------
Andy | 2015 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4
Bill | 2015 | 2 | 3 | 2 | 2
Bobby | 2015 | 1 | 3 | 3 | 3
Chester | 2015 | 3 | 1 | 2 | 4
Gerard | 2014 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 2
Milford | 2014 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 2
Albert | 2014 | 2 | 1 | 4 | 2
Stoner | 2014 | 2 | 1 | 3 | 2
Priyanka | 2014 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 2
Willow | 2014 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 3
Yoggi | 2014 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 2




Where:


1 - Chose


2 - Likes, but didn't chose


3 - Doesn't like


4 - Never tried


Yes. that's already a pivot. As the data for each 'food' was initially from different files (status on Apples, on Oranges etc.).


So now I want to create an analysis from this table to know:
what is the rate of people choosing one option over another if both options are 'liked', what is the rate of people liking "A" if they like "B". How many other options are liked by kids who chose "A". (I pretty much need each vs. each table that will be updated if the table is changed)


And I also want to see a progression of all of this over the years.


Which approach will you recommend? I initially used this data to create another pivot table, but it doesn't allow to put Options to the Row and Column at the same time, so I'm a bit confused. Any ideas?
 

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
I'll ne happy to comment more or maybe just tell me the directions - what should I try to do? I can do all the rest.
