Re: urgent ......problems on group

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Ditto what Bob said, but just as an aside, without seeing anything else, i
would suggest you change your data structure such that all your data is
together in the same columns, eg:-

sales quantity

1 john 2
2 mary 4
3 nick 5
4 tom 7
5 linda 6 ...

This will give you far more flexibilty and allow you to use a host of other
functions that you have pretty much denied yourself by using your existing
structure, eg:-

Pivot Tables
Data / Subtotals

You will also find it much easier to structure formulas such as

SUMIF
COUNTIF
SUMPRODUCT etc

all of which can be used to obtain summary data from a table such as I have
suggested.
