    Table of intersecting data

    Hello - i have a 3 columns of data: Team 1, Team 2, Date.

    Using this data, I am trying to use a pivot table in order to display on a seperate sheet: Team 1 vertically in column A, the date horizontally across the top and Team 2 in the 'intersection'.

    Unfortunately this is giving me a 'Count of Team 2'.

    Question: How do i display Team 2 name in the data area?

    thanks,
    HBM

    With Pivot tables, you have to have some sort of summary in the Data range... not text fields...

    so best thing is probably to list the Team 1 list down a column and the Dates along the top row.. then use formula like this:

    =Index(Sheet1!$B:$B,Match($A2,Sheet1!$A:$A,0),Match(B$1,Sheet1!$C:$C,0)) and copy down and across the table...

    where Sheet1!A:C hold the raw data and A2 on active sheet holds first Team 1 category and B1 holds first date...

    ... formula would be inserted in B2 and copied down and across.
