Hi there guys, It might well be, that the title is not really appropriate, but it kinda includes the whole idea, that sometimes Excel would be nicer with a 3rd, Z-axis.
So here is the thing, I have people on different projects (Y-axis) and a timeline/calendar (X-axis). This setup basically shows how many hours a person worked on a certain day. I need to assign these hours to a "cost place" and this is the place where a Z-axis would come in extremely handy. My idea was that it would be extremely nice if you could select a certain group of cells (in a row) and assign a value to them and that you could then analyze these (3rd) values later on. I know you need uniform data to make analyzing data somewhat efficient, and that the best way to achieve this is to enter data through a form. but if you have a lot of workers, entering data for each day, individually is not just time-consuming, but also extremely confusing, since you don't see the whole picture. Well, that's basically it, so anyone that has an idea, please help.

Best regards

B.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
