Hi,
I have duplicate rows where the id_field is the only difference between rows indicated by the final number in the string.
I have uploaded some dummy data to demonstrate what I am trying to do. I wish to change Sheet 1 into Sheet 2, but I'm not sure how to accomplish it.
I want to keep the original data with all the columns filled in, but also have it where only 1 field is marked. It's to create a file that I can input into another programme which will give me a set of results based on the fields that are marked. So I want to be able to see what it's like with a single input and all together, if that makes sense..
Thanks in advance for anyone that can enlighten me how to tackle this issue.
@mike17 can you elaborate on what you mean by "but also have it where only 1 field is marked."
From the data I think I see how you are saying that an id_field with the same starting numbers but a different end number should be grouped together. For example
2950200001 |
2950200002 |
2950200003 |
These are all starting with the same beginning numbers but have 1, 2, and 3 at the end. What I'm not quite following is what logic you are using to determine if "Yes" should be turned into "None". Are you looking to see if you have 2 toys indicated for example and a "Yes" indicated on two columns in sheet one, that you want to show it could be all of the first Yes column, all of the second Yes column, or a Yes in both the first and second column because these are the different combinations that you could make out of a 2 toy set?
