Show field name based on Value

HM

Hi,

 

I'd like to create a field which shows the Field Names for projects that have a value of 3 - is there a better and quicker way to do it than using IF formulas?

 

Data Input:

Project Pies Cakes Bread Tarts
A 3 3 3 3
B 2 3 1 1
C 1 2 3 3
D 2 3 2 3

 

Desired Output:

Project Pies Cakes Bread Tarts Value of 3
A 3 3 3 3 Pies & Cakes & Bread & Tarts
B 2 3 1 1 Cakes
C 1 2 3 3 Bread & Tarts
D 2 3 2 3 Cakes & Tarts

 

Thanks!

HM,

 

Thanks for the question.  I've answered it with a module.  I explained the solution within the module/pic.  There's a spoiler alert!  don't look down if you want to solve this yourself.  Please note that I didn't join the data back to the input (final step in your request).  

 

Thanks again for the puzzle.  I hope that I solved it in a manner that will have business value for you.
