Are these the desired outcomes (only in a table to validate output) - presumably you want a single long, continual column of results...

Could you explain how the code G8-H2 should be coded


Is that just

G8
H2

or a range, somehow, of G8-H2?

G2
G3
G4
G5
G6
G7
G8
H2
H3
H4
H5
H6
H7
H8

(like an Excel range, for example)


or even

G2
G3
G4
G5
G6
G7
G8
H2

(like a partial range??)

many thanks for your reply,

1. I will need a single long, continual column
A1
A2
A3
A4
A5
B6
B7
B8
B9
F6
...
2. the box has 10 column and 10 row, so G8-H2 will be
G8
G9
G10
H1
H2

3. Actually I have 3 columns, the first is Sample ID, 2nd is box number, 3rd is the one I have listed earlier, like this:
[TABLE="width: 316"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]CHWTB-107335
[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]1
[/TD]
[TD] A1-6
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

I would like it become: Many many thanks

Is the end of the FIRST code always suffixed with "-S-n" (where n is the number of instances)??

Sorry that I was away, yes, this is correct, but I didn't see the trick, how can I do it? By the way, Column B is Box rather than quantity.

many many thanks
