I have a large set of data and I am going to provide a summary of it here. It looks something like this starting in A1:
I need to summarize these presidents and the location in a format that looks like this:
So each president and the corresponding location and then the first time they appear there would be date 1, the second time date 2, etc, and corresponding times. Ideally the only blank dates would be at the end if they do not show up. This is a weekly report, so there are never more than 7 dates. Anyone have ideas?
I tried pivoting to summarize, but there are too many columns. Let's assume the bottom set of results, the column phone number is cell A11. If phone number cannot come first, I can move it later. The president's phone numbers will always be the same and unique for each president.
