    Summarize Excel Data

    Attached is a workbook, MonRental.xlsm, where I would like to use the sheet: PlaySpace and create summary lines of totals (Column C) for each Equipment# (Column L).

    Excel's Consolidate and/Subtotal options seem to fall way short. When I arrive with two columns of summary data (Equip# & Equip Total) I will need to reference that data via VLOOKUP in another workbook so it is important that I get 1 line of data per Equipment#.

    If I were working in my old AS/400 - RPG environment I would simply query the data, summarizied (control break) by Equip# and write the output to a workfile. However, .....

    Thoughts and consideration appreciated,

    Dan

    Hi

    If pivot table doesn't give you what you are chasing, can you update your example file to show the output structure you are trying to achieve.

    Hi DJBittner,

    A Pivot Table may do what you want. See Sheet5 where I've done two pivots on your PlaySpace data. See the attached.

    Pivot Tables are the answer -- I wondered but could not (initially) find the Pivot-button.

    All set on this one - thanks a ton, Dan.
