    Question Extracting data from different sheets / tabs etc to a common matrix

    Hi All,

    I get sent user data from different system administrators. that I need to collate for checking

    Each System has multiple users and a user may have access to multiple systems.

    In the example spreadsheet, I have labeled each tab by system. What I want to achieve is extracting the data from each of the systems, identifying and listing all the unique users in column A on the "User to System Matrix", Using the Tab name to identifying the systems in Row 1 (this may change and will not be consistent).

    I then want to identify in the matrix what systems a user has access to (left to right), or what users are listed in a system (top to bottom) and concatenate all the systems a user has access to at the end.

    I'm not worried about additional control sheets or columns which may or may not be hidden as long as I can come up with something resembling the "User the System Matrix" Tab at the end.

    I'm quite happy with Macros, formula etc. But honestly, right now I haven't a clue where to start.

    Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

    Kindest Regards

    Magic Man

    I don't know whether to extend this thread or start a new one. If a new one needs to be started just let me know and I'll do it.

    The criteria has been changed on me. I now need the content from column A (username) as well as column E (Users actual name) being output to the "User to System Matrix"

    Would you rather I uploaded a fresh spreadsheet?

    probably not necessary to start a new thread or add a spreadsheet, but where do you want to put the user's actual name? should be quite straightforward to address this request.

    assuming you just wanna take it from column E and put it in column B of your matrix, looks like this is working:
