Hi all,

I try to reserve any questions to this forum that are a little challenging - so apologies for the following as I really should know how to do this. In short, a taxi company has daily contracts and simply add which taxis took the job - at the end of the month the drivers get paid. The contracts are at the top, the dates on the side and whichever taxi does the job gets entered into the data in the spread sheet (taxis 3,5,6,7,8,14 or 15). All I want to do is flip this information so that the taxi references are at the top and the contracts are in the spread sheet. I have highlighted a possible scenario where one of the drivers complete more that 2 jobs in the day - I thought that this would be the only difficult part but for me I am struggling (looking at this I don't think it has come out highlighted). I have tried using Tables/Pivot Tables but to no avail.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Dt

Hi Mick

Many many thanks for this

Why can't I write code off the bat like this!

Your code works great - apart from when the taxi completes more than 2 jobs for the day - for example on 05/02/2019 Taxi 5 completes SWAN MONGL on both am and pm and another job in the pm.

Bit tricky I think

Many thanks

Dt

Try this enhanced code for duplicates jobs in any line
Run the code from the activesheet (data sheet) for results on sheet2.

Mick - I don't know what to say. Well I do - 1) Thank you so much for this. I got a bit obsessed with it and I have been considering it for all of yesterday and yesterday evening. 2) How can I learn to this level of coding? I seem to spend forever on even the most basic problems.

Anyway - thank you once again :~)
