    Many to Many Relationship

    Hi all,

    I'm having difficulties relating 2 tables because the variable that makes them related contains duplicates on both sides. Allow me to explain.

    Let's say we have 4 [Programs]

    TABLE1: Each [Program] is rolled out at 4 [Locations] each having their own size [Modifier]
    TABLE2: Each [Program] also has 4 [Phases] each of them having a number of required [Resources]

    Now what I want is to see the [Resource] requirements per [Phase], FOR EACH [Location], realized by multiplying [Resource] with its [Modifier]

    Would this be possible?

    Thanks a lot!
    Michael

    Re: Many to Many Relationship

    Hi Michael and welcome to the forum,

    I've seen Many to Many relationships in Access and worked with them there like:
    http://ms-access-tips.blogspot.com/2...ationship.html

    But you are asking about them in Excel (I assume). The tool to deal with relationships in Excel is at:
    https://blogs.office.com/en-us/2016/...in-excel-2016/

    I hope the above helps, but without having a workbook sample of your data and what you expect as an answer, it is hard to do much more.

    You can attach a sample workbook on our site and we can try to help from there.

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.

    Thanks for the link Marvin! This definitely helped and I was able to achieve what I wanted to. I did run into some problems with but the SUMX formula solved that.

    Thanks again!
