    Question Multi-Category Pivot Possible?

    Can anyone please tell me if it's possible to produce the following Pivot Table:
    Category Count of Category Sum of Effort
    CatA 2 25
    CatB 3 55
    From this raw data:
    ID CatA CatB Effort
    1 Y Y 10
    2 Y N 15
    3 N Y 20
    4 N Y 25
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the suggestion, Glenn. The issue is that there are likely lots of categories across hundreds of records and I was hoping to be dynamic! In reality the data has a single "Category" field containing a comma separated list of categories (in no particular order). I'll have a play with your suggestion...

    Pulling out a dynamic list of categories won't be difficult. Then the countif/sumif should follow through automatically. Ca you post a sample of how the souce list of categories looks?
