    2d VLookup

    Column A contains numbers that repeat themselves. in column B codes are assigned to each number.
    numbers in column A may have multiple codes in column B.but are unique for each instance the same number may appear in column A.

    what i'm trying to do is.

    have the numbers in column A show only once and then have the codes for the corresponding codes appear each in seperate columns rather than all in one.

    how would i go about this?!?!?

    thx!
