A solution to last week's challenge can be found here

 

This week's challenge was submitted by @kelly_gilbert - thank you for your contribution! 

 

Challengers, get ready to have some fun with this one!  And, with various levels of difficulty built into this challenge, there's something for everyone!

 

Your challenge this week is to build a Bingo Card! This challenge uses events/observations from a baseball game, but you can customize this input for anything from traditional numbers to things you might see at Thanksgiving Dinner.  Enjoy!

I completed this as 'beginnermediate'. I completed all the intermediate steps outside of the reporting tools. BINGO!

Analytic App & Batch Macro combination allows the user to create a desired number of Bingo cards and customize the title.  I'm looking forward to seeing how everybody configures their reporting tools for the Advanced solution:

The reporting bit puzzles me every single time. I wish to be in the flow with reporting tools but I find them extremely unintuitive. Where can I learn working with them?

 

Anyways I went with an iterative macro:

I wasn't able to get the exact output, but still pretty happy with how it turned out!

I got my Bingo card to look like so and called it good enough...

Another challenge using reporting tools. To be honest, I don't like working with reporting tools. And I avoid it if I can. That's why I like the weekly challenge - because it forces me to use tools I don't like (or that I don't know well). And once again learned a lot...

 

Finally I created a card somehow similar to the sample ...
