In the example table above, I would like to write a VBA code to list the Session Code + Lesson Type like this

D01 Demo
D01 Practical
D02 Lecture
D02 Seminar

I was able to look for a code but it just gives me the cell address that matches a criteria. Here's the code

Public Sub SearchForText()
Dim rngSearchRange As Range
Dim vntTextToFind As Variant
Dim strFirstAddr As String
Dim lngMatches As Long
Dim rngFound As Range

On Error GoTo ErrHandler
vntTextToFind = Application.InputBox( _
Prompt:="Enter text to find:", _
Default:="Search...", _
Type:=2 _
)
If VarType(vntTextToFind) = vbBoolean Then Exit Sub

On Error Resume Next
Set rngSearchRange = Application.InputBox( _
Prompt:="Enter range for search:", _
Default:=ActiveCell.Parent.UsedRange.Address, _
Type:=8 _
)

On Error GoTo ErrHandler
If rngSearchRange Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Set rngFound = rngSearchRange.Find( _
What:=CStr(vntTextToFind), _
LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart _
)

If rngFound Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "No matches were found.", vbInformation
Else
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets.Add
With .Range("A1:B1")
.Value = Array("Cell", "Value")
.Font.Bold = True
End With
strFirstAddr = rngFound.Address
Do
lngMatches = lngMatches + 1
.Cells(lngMatches + 1, "A").Value = rngFound.Parent.Name & "!" _
& rngFound.Address(0, 0)
.Cells(lngMatches + 1, "B").Value = rngFound.Value
Set rngFound = rngSearchRange.FindNext(rngFound)
Loop Until (rngFound.Address = strFirstAddr)
.Columns("A:B").AutoFit
End With
End If
Exit Sub

ErrHandler:
MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation
End Sub

Would really appreciate your help. Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
PQ can do it for you easily

Power Query:
let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Session Code", type text}, {"Demo", Int64.Type}, {"Practical", Int64.Type}, {"Lecture", Int64.Type}, {"Seminar", Int64.Type}}),
    #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Session Code"}, "Attribute", "Value"),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Unpivoted Columns",{"Value"})
in
    #"Removed Columns"

Hello. Thanks for the response.

Sorry. I am not familiar with power query. I am currently using just Excel.
How can I convert my file to PQ if I may ask?

Power Query is part of Excel and very powerful for handling large data set transformations / sorting

Select the range of the data you are importing, paste into Advanced editor the code above and load back into your excel sheet . Loads of resources on how to use it available and walkthroughs

Got this. This is very helpful.

Is there a way I can add a macro to have this done?

To do what? Once you have this set up and if the data changes in the worksheet , if the range has not changed just refresh, if the range has changed just amend the range and rerun. You don't need a macro.
