i have been try to solved this using tutorial from google ( everywhere ) but i'm not find any answer, i hope i can found the answer here.
here is my data
A B C
+-------+----+-----+
1 | 123 | 4 | 5 |
2 | 678 | 9 | 10 |
+-------+----+-----+
the result that i need :
A B C
+-------+----+-----+
1 | 123 | | |
2 | 678 | | |
3 | 4 | | |
4 | 5 | | |
5 | 9 | | |
6 | 10 | | |
+-------+----+-----+
or in other order like :
123
4
5
678
...
any one know how to solved this ?

This must be a simple thing to do but somehow I am unable to find answer to this question. In google sheets, if you want to reference an entire column (e.g Column A) you will put ={A:A} and the entire column will be referenced. How do you achieve similar thing in MS excel?
EDIT: (Asked in comments to post specific example)
Lets assume google sheets contain the following data:
| A | B | C |
| 1 | 5 | 9 |
| 2 | 6 | 0 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 |
Now if in cell D1 I type ={A:A}, the entire column A will be shown in column D.
| A | B | C | D |
| 1 | 5 | 9 |={A:A}
| 2 | 6 | 0 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 |
becomes
| A | B | C | D |
| 1 | 5 | 9 | 1 |
| 2 | 6 | 0 | 2 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 | 3 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 | 4 |
I dont have to drag the formula to the bottom or anything. It just shows the entire column
How do I do the exact same thing in excel?
It depends. For example:
=COUNTIF(A:A,"gold")
Excel does not support stuff like:
=COUNTIF(A12:A,"gold")
I have to re-number over 30,000 rows in excel and am looking for a way to do this through an embedded excel function.
I have two columns, the original BuildingCount and the Test column. In the BuildingCount column, I have inconsistent count that needs to be consecutive 1,2,3 numbers in order to run a macros. However, the numbers are not always consecutive. I have been writing different variations of excel functions. The below is the output for =IF(A2>1),A2+1,1)
+----+---------------+------------+
| | A | B |
+----+---------------+------------+
| 1 | BuildingCount | TestColumn |
| 2 | 1 | #VALUE! |
| 3 | 2 | 1 |
| 4 | 3 | 3 |
| 5 | 5 | 4 |
| 6 | 6 | 6 |
| 7 | 9 | 7 |
| 8 | 1 | 10 |
| 9 | 2 | 1 |
| 10 | 3 | 3 |
| 11 | 4 | 4 |
| 12 | 5 | 5 |
+----+---------------+------------+
Ideally, the output would be the following:
+----+---------------+------------+
| | A | B |
+----+---------------+------------+
| 1 | BuildingCount | TestColumn |
| 2 | 1 | 1 |
| 3 | 2 | 2 |
| 4 | 3 | 3 |
| 5 | 5 | 4 |
| 6 | 6 | 5 |
| 7 | 7 | 6 |
| 8 | 1 | 1 |
| 9 | 2 | 2 |
| 10 | 3 | 3 |
| 11 | 4 | 4 |
| 12 | 5 | 5 |
+----+---------------+------------+
Any ideas would be very welcomed.
Formula in B2:
=IF(ROW()=2,1,IF(A2>A1,B1+1,1))

Summary
I want to have a column in my spreadsheet that does 2 things.
1) In an ordered column, it will return the range where the column contains a specified value.
2) It will run a function (i.e., =SUM(), =AVERAGE(), etc.) over that same range in a different column.
Examples
Original
| NAME | VAL | FOO |
|-------|-----|-----|
| A | 3 | |
| A | 2 | |
| A | 4 | |
| A | 3 | |
| B | 2 | |
| B | 2 | |
| B | 1 | |
| C | 6 | |
| C | 5 | |
Average
I would want to get the average of VAL for each NAME. I would want the result to be:
| NAME | VAL | FOO |
|-------|-----|-----|
| A | 3 | 3 |
| A | 2 | 3 |
| A | 4 | 3 |
| A | 3 | 3 |
| B | 2 | 1.7 |
| B | 2 | 1.7 |
| B | 1 | 1.7 |
| C | 6 | 5.5 |
| C | 5 | 5.5 |
Sum
Another example would be to get the sum of VAL for each NAME.
| NAME | VAL | FOO |
|-------|-----|-----|
| A | 3 | 12 |
| A | 2 | 12 |
| A | 4 | 12 |
| A | 3 | 12 |
| B | 2 | 5 |
| B | 2 | 5 |
| B | 1 | 5 |
| C | 6 | 11 |
| C | 5 | 11 |
Having "NAME" ordered makes it easy. If "NAME" is in A1. Enter this into C2 for the sum, then fill down:
=IF(A2=A3,C3,SUMIF($A$2:A2,A2,$B$2:B2))
Enter this into C2 for the average, then fill down:
=IF(A2=A3,C3,AVERAGEIF($A$2:A2,A2,$B$2:B2))
Note that the result in C2 won't be what you want until you fill down.
Update for MAXIF
If you don't have Excel 2016, you'll have to use an array formula (commit with ctrl+shift+enter):
=IF(A2=A3,C3,MAX(IF($A$2:A2=A2,$B$2:B2)))
I am trying to build a dataset from an online questionnaire. In this questionnaire, participants were asked to name 6 items. These items are represented with numbers from 1 to 6 (order of mention does not matter). Afterwards, participants were asked to rank those items from most important to least important (order here matters). Right now I have three columns "Named items", "Item ranked" and "Rank." The last column represents the position at which each case was ranked at. Thus, the idea would be to look at the number in the first column "Named item" and search for its position on the second column "Items Ranked" and return its position to the third column corresponding row.
Since the numbers go from 1 to 6, every six rows the process has to start again on the 7th row. I have a total of 186 participants, which means there's a total of 1116 items. What would be the most efficient way of doing this and preventing human error?
Here is an example of how the sheet looks like done manually:
+----------------------+-----------------------------+------+
| Order of named items | Items ranked (# = Identity) | Rank |
+----------------------+-----------------------------+------+
| 1 | 2 | 4 |
| 2 | 5 | 1 |
| 3 | 6 | 6 |
| 4 | 1 | 5 |
| 5 | 4 | 2 |
| 6 | 3 | 3 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 | 4 |
| 5 | 5 | 5 |
| 6 | 6 | 6 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 | 3 |
| 4 | 4 | 4 |
| 5 | 5 | 5 |
| 6 | 6 | 6 |
| 1 | 5 | 3 |
| 2 | 6 | 4 |
| 3 | 1 | 5 |
| 4 | 2 | 6 |
| 5 | 3 | 1 |
| 6 | 4 | 2 |
| 1 | 2 | 2 |
| 2 | 1 | 1 |
| 3 | 6 | 4 |
| 4 | 3 | 5 |
| 5 | 4 | 6 |
| 6 | 5 | 3 |
+----------------------+-----------------------------+------+
You can use this non volatile function:
=MATCH(A2,INDEX(B:B,INT((ROW(1:1)-1)/6)*6+2):INDEX(B:B,INT((ROW(1:1)-1)/6)*6+7),0)
Assuming 1st column starts at A2 and second column at B2 use this formula in C2 copied down
=MATCH(A2,OFFSET(B$2,6*INT((ROWS(C$2:C2)-1)/6),0,6),0)
OFFSET returns the 6 cell range required and MATCH finds the position of the relevant item within that
See screenshot below
I would like to do the following data sorting/reshaping in excel. Is there a way to do this?
From this
+--------+-------+
| Sample | Value |
+--------+-------+
| 1 | 30 |
| 1 | 10 |
| 2 | 6 |
| 2 | 5 |
| 3 | 62 |
| 3 | 20 |
+--------+-------+
To this
+---------+---------+---------+
| Sample1 | Sample2 | Sample3 |
+---------+---------+---------+
| 30 | 6 | 62 |
| 10 | 5 | 20 |
+---------+---------+---------+
edit: please excuse my ugly table.
If 30 is in B2, please try in C2:
=OFFSET($B2,2*(COLUMN()-3),0)
copied across and down to suit.
