    Red face Data separation from table

    Hi everyone,

    My name is Elen and I'm facing a problem dealing with excel tables.
    I'm processing some indexes for my thesis and I can't find a quick way to separate the data.
    PLEASE HELP!

    I have a general table as follow: But imagine this for as many as 10.000 companies from different countries.

    company name & index 2000 2001 2002 ....... 2011
    A1 -total assets (observations)
    A2 - Net sales
    A3 - Liabilities
    B1-total assets
    B2 - Net sales
    B3 - Liabilities
    C1-total assets
    C2 - Net sales
    C3- Liabilities
    etc..


    I need a quick way so that I can separate the above gathered data in 3 respectively tables where all companies (A,B,C... etc)
    will show in case one only the total assets, than the Net sales than Liabilities.

    It would be something like this:

    2000 2001 2002 ..... 2011
    A1 -total assets (only total asset observations)
    B1 -total assets
    C1 -total assets
    .
    .
    .
    etc....

    than

    2000 2001 2002 ..... 2011
    A1 -Net sales (only Net sales observations)
    B1 -Net sales
    C1 -Net sales
    .
    .
    .
    etc

    Last

    2000 2001 2002 ..... 2011
    A1 -Liabilities (only liabilities observations)
    B1 -Liabilities
    C1 -Liabilities


    COULD SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE??? Till now I have been copying the same excel in three different sheets and manually deleting each
    time the observations I do not need. But this might take for ever!!!!

    Thank you in Advance.

    I think that you will achieve what you want if you use the Vlookup function in your three subsidiary worksheets. Here is a link on how the vlookup works.
