Report: grouped by rows & columns (is this possible?)
stevep17 "Is this possible to achieve in Excel?" The answer is Yes!
How exactly is a bit difficult to explain in words, without some real data to play with. From looking at the pictures, I would first connect to and transform the data a bit with Power Query, then load the data into the Data Model. Then you need som DAX code that allows the text based answers to be entered in the value field of a pivot table.
Now, this may sound all very alien, if you have never seen or heard of this before. And if you are on a Mac, you can forget it altogether. So, if you can provide a file with some real, but anonymous data, I or someone else can get you started.
- And I have used Power Query before to help solve a different Excel problem. It's a great plug-in!
stevep17 Something like in the attached file perhaps. First a bit of cleaning up in PQ, then some Power Pivot.
- Yes! That's it exactly.
We're hoping to get to this with the click of a button...if that's possible (a macro)?
We need a regular non-power user to be able to take the raw survey report and transform it easily to this end result.
Riny_van_Eekelen thanks very much for your response.
I am attaching a sample file as you've requested.
Any further input would be very welcome.
Thanks again,
Steve
