    Use and auto-sort names from a master list, with multiple columns under every name

    Hi!

    This might be a very basic question (and might even belong in the macros section), but I'm gonna try anyways. I'm basically just beginning to learn excel "programming", but unfortunately I don't really have the time to learn everything I need for this particular workbook before I'm supposed to put it to use.

    Essentially, what I want is a way to pull names from a master list of names (for simplicity), and auto-alphabetize them into different columns. Every name needs three columns "under" the name where I can manually insert numeric values, and if I add another name to the master list (that affects the order), the values need to be "locked" to the person it's related to. The sum of row1 for every person needs to be added together, separate from the sums of rows 2 and rows 3, and adding another nume, thus 3 new columns, automatically changes the sum formula to include the new person.

    I have a very basic sheet showing the setup without these additions (just manual formulas).

    Any ideas? Like I said, I'll likely be able to do it myself in not too long, but I would like to put it to use fairly soon, and I have plenty of other excel projects in mind to learn the rest.

    The sheet might be in norwegian (with norwegian formatting in excel 2007, as that's what the workplace uses), but if it doesn't work I'll upload a different example in english from my personal computer.

    If you add a norwegian file, excel automatic translate the formula into the regional settings of the user (in my case Dutch).

    Can you add the expected result in your file and post it again?
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.

    Reading your question again, you can check if this is a result you could accept.

    It is a little differant aproach.

    I changed the headers in your file / I changed the name of your sheet (Ark).

    After that a VBA code to get all data in 1 sheet (output).

    After that a pivot table to analyze the data.

    I just took all data (it also can be showed per date).

    Please reply.
