    Combining One Product with Many Variations then going to next product

    Hello All,

    I am a noob but some experience with Excel but I am having a major brain fart right now. I have a product which I need to combine with many different variations.

    Column A would be the SKU for the product and Column B would be 20 different colors. What I need to do is take SKU1 and add a dash and combine with the first color. Then take the SKU1 and add to second color until it is does all twenty colors. Then I need have it go to the next row (SKU2) and do the same thing until it does about 100 different SKUs with 20 different colors...essentially creating 2000 products.

    A B
    SKU1 GREEN
    SKU2 BLUE
    SKU3 RED
    SKU4 YELLOW
    ......

    Results I am looking for:

    SKU1-GREEN
    SKU1-BLUE
    SKU1-RED
    SKU1-YELLOW
    SKU2-GREEN
    SkU2-BLUE
    SKU2-RED
    SKU2-YELLOW
    SKU3-GREEN
    SKU3-BLUE
    SKU3-RED
    SKU3-YELLOW
    and so on.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Mike

    I think VBA would be best for this
    Hope this helps

    Sometimes its best to start at the beginning and learn VBA & Excel.

    Please dont ask me to do your work for you, I learnt from Reading books, Recording, F1 and Google and like having all of this knowledge in my head for the next time i wish to do it, or wish to tweak it.

    How would that work. I am not familiar with VBA.
