    Need help combining multiple rows and columns of data on a large document

    Hello!


    I am currently working on a document, which has 5500 rows of data, which has anywhere from 2-5 rows of duplicates of the same user. Although the row may be for the same user, each row has different data which needs to be combined in the same column and not lost. I've been trying to find some basic VBA code online, but I can't find any that works.

    Sample is attached. Ideally, I'd like to have all of John's data in one row, and all of Sally's data in one row.


    Many thanks!

    Sorry I don't understand what your doing, so if say all of johns data is on the same row, does that mean there would only be one date value 1 and so on.

    Hi! So John has 4-5 rows, each with partial data (i.e. one row has the data in column b, one row has the data in column e). I would like to take all the data in the 4-5 rows, and combine them into one row.

    If it makes it easier, see the attached document. The "Ideal data" tab in the doc is what I'm trying to accomplish, from the "Raw data" tab. Thanks!

    Also, there will only ever be one value in each column per person -- we just need to take all five rows, and merge them into one row. There will only be one value in each set of column cells that need to be merged. Hope that makes sense!
