Hi all,

I
May someone help with with this.

I'd like to tabulate this stacked structure of parameters (column A) and values(column B) that has multiple blocks as shown below
in range A1:B3 in the way shown in D1:L14.

First block of data (first row to be tabulated), begins with "WORLD" and begins with "CAPITAL". Then could continue 0 o more blocks containing
only a few parameters, that begins with "COUNTRYCODE" and ends with "CAPITAL". Then could be others blocks that begins with "CONTINENT"
and ends with "PRM". Then could be others blocks that contains only "PRM".

Thee headers in output would be the unique parameters from column A, except "POLCODE" that is not needed to print in output. Each block that
begins with "WORLD" or "COUNTRYCODE" would be a new row in output. For "PRM" values extract the numbers after "ncc" and after "kng".

How to know if "COUNTRYCODE" belongs or not to a bigger block that begins with "WORLD"? Well, one row only could have the value of each
parameter. If one parameter appears again, should go in another row. The same applies to "PRM".

Thanks in advance for any help

I used in B2 a formula that is slightly different than yours:
Excel Formula:
=IFERROR(FILTERXML($A$1,"//COUNTRIES/group["&ROW(A1)&"]/"&B$1),"")

Excellent!!! It works better and without to insert an array formula like mine. I think the fill-down thing is not possible but only with a macro? or is do you still have some trick hidden? :)

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
What version of Excel are you using?

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)
