    Combine Product List and Attribute List

    Hello Excel Forum,

    I'm new to VBA and the forum, but I have a task in Excel that I'm looking for some wisdom about how to approach. I want to take data from a list of products, and data from a list of additional attributes of these products, then combine the data into a table where each discrete product has its own row.

    My example below is a simplified version of what I want to do. I hope it helps to understand my question. My real data is much larger and more complex. Does anyone have a good idea about how to approach something like this?

    Thank you.

    No, the input table will grow, then I want to populate the final table with new items.

    Additional parameters will change, and in my real table, some additional parameters will apply to certain products but not others.

    Re: Combine Product List and Attribute List

    The key between "Input Table" and "Additional Parameters" is still the "Length" ?

    Re: Combine Product List and Attribute List

    Today in your "Output Table" the criteria order is:
    1 - Material
    2 - Length
    3 - Head Style
    4 - Pitch
    Is it always the same ?

    Re: Combine Product List and Attribute List

    To make it easy I suggast to change column order in "Outout"
    "Material Length Head Stylle Pitch" ... and others to come and at the end "Price id"
    is it OK ?
