I am sure this is possible but not sure how to code this.
 

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
How about
Code:
Sub Test()
   Dim ary As Variant, nary As Variant
   Dim r As Long, c As Long, rr As Long
   
   ary = Range("C2", Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(, 8)).Value2
   ReDim nary(1 To UBound(ary) + Application.SUM(Range("E:E")), 1 To 2)
   For r = 1 To UBound(ary)
      rr = rr + 1
      nary(rr, 1) = ary(r, 1)
      If ary(r, 3) > 0 Then
         For c = 1 To ary(r, 3) * 2 Step 2
            rr = rr + 1
            nary(rr, 1) = ary(r, c + 3)
            nary(rr, 2) = ary(r, c + 4)
         Next c
      End If
   Next r
   Range("T2").Resize(rr, 2).Value = nary
   
End Sub

Hi, I have just used this code and it works fine for most of it. However when it gets to the end and finds that ary,3="" I get the error message type mismatch. How do I get over it please?

You wouldn't get that if the cell in col E was blank.
Do you have text in there?

Hi,

I have added an extra column in between D & E, and am trying to also include the data in the new column in the array - ary,4. I have tried to amend the code but some of the data appears to be overwritten and I am not sure how to resolve this.

ary = Range("C2", Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(, 14)).Value2
ReDim nary(1 To UBound(ary) + Application.Sum(Range("G:G")), 1 To 2)
For r = 1 To UBound(ary)
rr = rr + 1
nary(rr, 1) = ary(r, 1)
'nary(rr, 2) = ary(r, 2)

If ary(r, 4) > 0 And ary(r, 4) <> "" Then
nary(rr, 1) = ary(r, 4)
End If

If ary(r, 5) > 0 And ary(r, 5) <> "" Then
For c = 1 To ary(r, 5) * 2 Step 2
rr = rr + 1
nary(rr, 1) = ary(r, c + 3)
nary(rr, 2) = ary(r, c + 4)
Next c
End If
Next r
Range("U2").Resize(rr, 2).Value = nary

Ok, how about
Code:
Sub Test()
   Dim ary As Variant, nary As Variant
   Dim r As Long, c As Long, rr As Long
   
   ary = Range("C2", Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(, 10)).Value2
   ReDim nary(1 To UBound(ary) + Application.SUM(Range("G:G")) + Application.Count(Range("G:G")), 1 To 2)
   For r = 1 To UBound(ary)
      rr = rr + 1
      nary(rr, 1) = ary(r, 1)
      If ary(r, 5) > 0 Then
         rr = rr + 1
         nary(rr, 1) = ary(r, 4)
         For c = 1 To ary(r, 5) * 2 Step 2
            rr = rr + 1
            nary(rr, 1) = ary(r, c + 5)
            nary(rr, 2) = ary(r, c + 6)
         Next c
      End If
   Next r
   Range("U2").Resize(rr, 2).Value = nary
   
End Sub
