    Hi, I have changed the title again as requested, though I am not quite sure what was wrong with it in the first place.

    Thanks

    Here, this is simplest only showing 1 instead of Yes if that's not problem with you:

    About title, from the rules:

    Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem...
    Use terms appropriate to a Google search.
    Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be ...

    Question Re: How to show users in groups from report

    Hi, Thanks for looking at this, but your answer is not quite what I am looking for. My data set is much bigger than in my example (ie, there are around 1500 groups and 600 users that are members of them in various combinations).

    I need to find a way of easily showing which groups a particular (person or group of people) is a member of, hence the need for some kind of lookup. I realise that I can put the information into some kind of pivot table the amount of data I have got is not going to fit into it. I also want to be able to take only a subset of the data and display it, so for example only the groups that users1,3 and 6 are members of.

    Thanks

    Re: How to show users in groups from report

    All of that you can use through Pivot table and any other solution would be complicated that this. Only thig is it doesn't show you Yes but 1 (wich is even better because you can see summ by group and user at the end, just need to adopt to view )

    But if you want without Pivot table it can be made (let me or someone else see).

    Re: How to show users in groups from report

    The only problem with that is, as I mentioned, there are over 500 users but only 255 columns

    Unfortunately, I can't post a spreadsheet with the actual information because it is security sensitive for my company, so I can only give you descriptions and the example spreadsheet that I have already posted

    Re: How to show users in groups from report

    Of course, nobody asked you for info. Dummy data, that show how table looks but without sensitive data is perfectly fine.

    Maybe soltuion would be to create meta-groups so each of new grups will contain about 10 groups. Then you will be able to put Pivot table in each sheet.

    (or create Report filter in one PT)

    You can do it quite easily with a Pivot table,the catch being that you should drag the user button as page Fields and the groups as col fields ( see attachment)
