I need help.
I have an Excel file w/ the approximate following column structure:
- Organization
- Program Name
- 2012 (Year)
- 2013 (Year)
- 2014 (Year)
In this initial construct each row is it’s own Program Name (i.e., there is only one row for each program). Each budget year has its own column where budget data for a given year is entered.
I need to replace the individual year columns with a single YEAR column:
- Organization
- Program Name
- YEAR
In this setup, there would be separate row for each of Program budget – so each program would have multiple rows for each year.
I have 3,000 lines in the original construct that I need to switch to the new format in order to feed my data visualization tool – otherwise it will not recognize each column as a single dimension (year).
Thanks
If I understand this right, you have:
and you want
Here is really rough but tested VBA code to get you started. I am not sure if you have had experience with VBA.
Sub xxx()
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Dim x As Integer
x = 2
For a = 2 To 3000
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
org = Range("A" & a).Value
prog = Range("B" & a).Value
y1 = Range("C" & a).Value
y2 = Range("D" & a).Value
y3 = Range("E" & a).Value
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range("A" & x).Value = org
Range("B" & x).Value = prog
Range("C" & x).Value = y1
Range("C" & x + 1).Value = y2
Range("C" & x + 2).Value = y3
x = x + 3
Next a
End Sub
Let me know if you need more explanation or better code.
