I would really appreciate some help in creating an Excel 2003 spreadsheet, that will automatically create 3 additional 'attainment levels' based on the 'start level'.

In cell "A1" - Student's Name.

In cell "A2" - Their start level.

Based on the value in cell "A2", I need to automatically create 3 additional

attainment levels in the adjacent cells. Each value given by the level in the

cell to the left.

Name - 1a - 1c* - 2b* - 3a* (* new grades)
Name - 1b - 2a* - 2c* - 3b*
Name - 1c - 2b* - 3a* - 3c*
Name - 2a - 2c* - 3b* - 4a*
Name - 2b - 3a* - 3c* - 4b*
Name - 2c - 3b* - 4a* - 4c*
Name - 3a - 3c* - 4b* - 5a*
Name - 3b - 4a* - 4c* - 5b*
Name - 3c - 4b* - 5a* - 5c*
Name - 4a - 4c* - 5b* - 6a*
Name - 4b - 5a* - 5c* - 6b*
Name - 4c - 5b* - 6a* - 6c*
Name - 5a - 5c* - 6b* - 7a*
Name - 5b - 6a* - 6c* - 7b*
Name - 5c - 6b* - 7a* - 7c*
Name - 6a - 6c* - 7b* - 8a*
Name - 6b - 7a* - 7c* - 8b*
Name - 6c - 7b* - 8a* - 8c*
Name - 7a - 7c* - 8b*
Name - 7b - 8a* - 8c*
Name - 7c - 8b*
Name - 8a - 8c*
Name - 8b
Name - 8c

Many thanks to the team for a solution on this.

Excel Facts

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
Since it's all organized, I would put the reference of Attainment levels in an empty column for reference. I chose column I, then a simple lookup formula can find the level entered in B1 and give answers in C1, D1, E1. I extended your list so that it would provide 0 answers beyond the end of the levels. Then I went into Tools > Options > View > [ ] Zero values and set this particular sheet to not display zero values. That way the zeros you see here don't show in your final worksheet.

The formula shown in C1 is copied down/across as needed.

Hi

I would think we would need your actual progressions as i assume this is a sample of what you want it to look like.

I.e.

Col A......Col B
1a goes to 1b
1b goes to 2a
7a goes to 8c
8c no progression

Then i think a formula can be written as long as the progression is defined this way.

Many thanks for the help . . . formula worked perfectly with just a little tweak (=INDEX($I:$I, MATCH(B2,$I:$I, 1)+2) . . . otherwise brilliant.
