Hello,

I have the below data in sheet 1, where as in column A its the activity and column b its the name of person who has done it. and the names will change daily.

Sheet 1
A B C D E F
1 Activity Name
2 12364 Saneel
3 6543 Karthik
4 7841 Somen
5 9654 Deepak
6 2541 Saneel
7 65489 Hema
8 4567 Sachin
9 9135 Karthik


I have a standard format in sheet 2 where i need the result as below -

Sheet 2

1 A B C D E F
2 Saneel 12364 2541
3 Karthik 6543 9135
4 Somen 7841
5 Deepak 9654

vlookup would be my choice here. the catch is, in order for it to work, you need the names on sheet 1 to come before the numbers. is it possible to switch the orders of the columns on sheet 1 so that the names come first?

Nice link. Thanks. Very Helpful.

The title is a little misleading as the VLOOKUP command is not used in the solutions given.
The very last example will work for this question though.

I too thought of using a pivot table but couldn't get it to format as required. How would you do it?

Its in all cells, I used the same the below -

Return MULTIPLE corresponding values for ONE Lookup Value, Horizontally, in one Row
=INDEX($B$2:$B$8, SMALL(IF($A$11=$A$2:$A$8, ROW($A$2:$A$8)-ROW($A$2)+1), COLUMN(A1)))
With the same example used in the website
