Merge cells based on duplicate values in adjacent cells

[sabrez]

Hi

I have a table as below:

1	$20
1	$20
2	$30
3	$15
3	$15

<tbody>
</tbody>

Now, I want to merge the cells in the 2nd column for corresponding duplicate values in col 1, as below:

1
1	$20
2	$30
3
3	$15

<tbody>
</tbody>

Regards
Sabrez

Hi,



Ctrl+Shift+Enter NOT just Enter

E2=IFERROR(IFERROR(INDEX($B$2:$B$6, MATCH(0, COUNTIF($E$1:E1,$B$2:$B$6), 0)),INDEX($B$2:$B$6, MATCH(0, COUNTIF($E$1:E1,$B$2:$B$6),0))), "")

Just Enter

D2 =INDEX($A$2:$A$6,MATCH(E2,$B$2:$B$6,0))

	A	B	C	D	E
1	1	$20		1	$20
2	1	$20		2	$30
3	2	$30		3	$15
4	3	$15
5	3	$15

<colgroup><col width="70" span="6" style="width:52pt"> </colgroup><tbody>
</tbody>

Hi sabrez,

from what I understand, you want to merge the cells in the second column based on common value in column 1. The code below assumes your data starts in A1 and doesn't matter if your data has headings or not.

Sub Macro1()

Dim lc As Integer
Dim x As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim d As Range

Application.DisplayAlerts = False

Set d = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).UsedRange
lc = d.Columns.Count

i = 1
For Each cell In d.Columns(1).Cells

If cell.Value = cell.Offset(1, 0).Value And x = 0 Then
x = cell.Row
i = i + 1

ElseIf Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range("A1:A" & i), cell.Value) <> 1 And cell.Value <> cell.Offset(1, 0).Value Then

Range(Cells(x, lc), cell.Offset(0, 1)).Select
Selection.Merge
x = 0
i = i + 1

Else

i = i + 1

End If

Next cell

Application.DisplayAlerts = True

End Sub

Maybe this is better, assuming duplicated values is in column 1 and values to merge is in the column next to column 1.

Sub Macro1()

Dim lc As Integer
Dim x As Integer
Dim d As Range

Application.DisplayAlerts = False

Set d = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).UsedRange
lc = d.Columns.Count

For Each cell In d.Columns(1).Cells

If cell.Value = cell.Offset(1, 0).Value And x = 0 Then
x = cell.Row

ElseIf Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(d.Columns(1), cell.Value) <> 1 And cell.Value <> cell.Offset(1, 0).Value Then

Range(cell.Offset(-(cell.Row - x), 1), cell.Offset(0, 1)).Select
Selection.Merge
x = 0

End If

Next cell

Application.DisplayAlerts = True

End Sub

Perfect!! This is exactly what I wanted. Thanks a ton
