Index match with multiple sheets
I attached here is example of what I am trying to do.Basically I want to pull the data to my master so that I can create a dynamic chart.
I'd transform other sheets data to tables (DamA, DamB, etc), it'll be more flexible. With that
Years:
=TRANSPOSE(INDIRECT($F$3 & "[Year]"))
Data:
=TRANSPOSE(INDIRECT($F$3 & "[" & $B7 & "]" ))like
I am a little confused as I did not see you reference any of the data sheets. I also attached another example for you to look at. Can this be done by index match?
In addition to JMB17 post - if for some reasons you don't want to use Tables (which is highly recommended) at least clean the structure of your sheets. Start in each range in the same cell of the sheet, e.g. in C4, not in any random place. Not critical, but desirably to have same column names, e.g. Jun for the month in all places, not Jun or June. With that and assuming you have no other data down fro each range, formula in C7 of master sheet could be
=IFNA( INDEX( INDIRECT("'" & $H$3 & "'!$D$5"): INDEX( INDIRECT("'" & $H$3 & "'!$D$5:$O$200"), COUNTA( INDIRECT("'" & $H$3 & "'!$C$5:$C$200")),12), MATCH($B7,INDIRECT("'" & $H$3 & "'!$C$5"): INDEX(INDIRECT("'" & $H$3 & "'!$C$5:$C$200"), COUNTA(INDIRECT("'" & $H$3 & "'!$C$5:$C$200"))),0), COLUMN()-COLUMN($B$5) ), "-")and drag it to the right.
One more comment - please mention on which version of Excel you are (365, 2016, Online, etc).
Looking through your last example I am confused and find that your formula is not working with Dam C as that dam has different dates.
Attempting to apply the same method that Sergei used, I believe the attached file is what you are trying to do? Since he is using structured tables (naming the 3 tables DamA, DamB, DamC), he can reference them by table name and column name, using the indirect function, instead of referencing the sheet they are on (format is "Table[Field]").
For this one, index/match would be appropriate to pull the specific year (row) from the table.
Since my knowledge of excel is quite limited, Can I say that there is no need for index match in this case as all you need is to indirectly transpose the results.
