    Sub division()

Dim i, j, l As Long
Range("E2:G1048576").Clear

l = 2

For i = 2 To 104

For j = 2 To 25

Cells(l, 5).Value = Cells(i, 1).Value
Cells(l, 6).Value = Cells(j, 2).Value

l = l + 1

Next j

Next i


End Sub

    In the attached file you can run this macro by clicking on the button in cell I2.

Hello. Thank you once again for your help! OliverScheurich djclements 

 

Regarding this question, could you help me with one more matter?

I have a horizontal table that stores product quantity data. The format of the table cannot be changed and the data is updated all the time. That I need another table with a vertical format. (You guys have already helped create this table.) This vertical table must pull product quantity information from the horizontal table. What formula should be used?


Note: The list of Divisions and Products may be changed, increased, or decreased.

=LET(values,DROP(Tabelle10,,1),divisions,Tabelle10[Division],products,DROP(Tabelle10[#Headers],,1),
HSTACK(TOCOL(IF(SEQUENCE(,COLUMNS(products)),divisions))&" - "&
TOCOL(IFNA(EXPAND(products,ROWS(divisions)),products)),TOCOL(values)))
 
I've just realised that your desired output is different than what i've suggested in my last reply. The above formula should produce the intended output.
