Hi everyone,
I record the themes of enquiries that I see, and there are of course, never enough themes!
I have a drop down list of commonly occurring themes, as well as a free text section to enter an additional theme when needed.
Sometimes it is necessary for me to enter one of the drop down themes into the free text section.
I keep records of how often they occur by having a 'set' list of the common themes, and then a filtered list of the less common themes (with corresponding COUNTIFS).
I do not want the filtered list of less common themes to repeat the information from the 'set' list.
Here is the almightily clunky formula I'm currently using which I suspect may be slowing down the whole workbook:
(H:H<>"") filters out blanks and (J:J=S1) is the way I return stats on a week by week basis.
Every other bracket after that is simply telling the filter NOT to include the 'set' list of 27 themes, cell by cell.
There has to be a better, cleaner and simpler way to do this, I would be very keen to hear any suggestions.
