from some googling I found this function that will concatenate the data in columns A, B & C based off the value in column D. This code does not work for me for some reason. My data looks like such
Bob Jason 0123456789 Tim
Jim Jason 0123456789 Tim
Fred Jason 0123456789 Tim
Columns, A and B concat fine, but column C concats to
12,345,678,901,234,500,000,000,000,000
How would the VBA be altered so that the code will concatenate properly?
Sub Concat()
Dim x, i As Long, ii As Long
With Cells(1).CurrentRegion
x = .Columns("d").Offset(1).Address
x = Filter(Evaluate("transpose(if(countif(offset(" & x & ",,,row(1:" & .Rows.Count & "))," & x & ")=1," & x & "))"), False, 0)
For i = 0 To UBound(x)
For ii = 1 To 3
Cells(i + 2, ii + 5).Value = Join(Filter(Evaluate("transpose(if(" & .Columns(4).Address & "=""" & _
x(i) & """," & .Columns(ii).Address & "))"), False, 0), ",")
Next
Cells(i + 2, ii + 5).Value = x(i)
Next
End With
End Sub
You need to set the destination cells to a Text format:
Sub Concat()
Dim x, i As Long, ii As Long
With Cells(1).CurrentRegion
x = .Columns("d").Offset(1).Address
x = Filter(Evaluate("transpose(if(countif(offset(" & x & ",,,row(1:" & .Rows.Count & "))," & x & ")=1," & x & "))"), False, 0)
For i = 0 To UBound(x)
For ii = 1 To 3
Cells(i + 2, ii + 5).NumberFormat = "@"
Cells(i + 2, ii + 5).Value = Join(Filter(Evaluate("transpose(if(" & .Columns(4).Address & "=""" & _
x(i) & """," & .Columns(ii).Address & "))"), False, 0), ",")
Next
Cells(i + 2, ii + 5).NumberFormat = "@"
Cells(i + 2, ii + 5).Value = x(i)
Next
End With
End Sub
