    OK - first bit of advice (you would be unwise to try to ignore this!) - get rid of the cells containing multiple values. Instead, create a database with ONE set of details per record.

    For example:

    Once you have done this, attach the workbook again and we can take it from there.

    Databases should always be in a normalised flat format like this - it makes everything else MUCH asier.

    Dear AliGW,
    Thank you so for your answers and support. I have been watching quite a few tutorials in the next couple of days and I have figured out how to do what I need (still quite basic but sufficient for now).
    I do we proceed from here as I do not have further questions for the time being?

    Best,
    Vulp
