    loading a matrix

    I have a list of employee training records (1 row per class) . I need to update a training matrix with has the employee as the row and the classes across the columns. How can I load the rows into the training matrix on sheet 2?

    101 aa
    101 bc
    102 cc
    103 ab
    I want to load to a matrix on Sheet 2:
    _______aa ab ac ba bb bc ca cb cc
    101 ____ x _____________x
    102 ___________________________x
    103 ______x

    Zbor,
    I like the Pivot table idea.
    I guess I would just have to add a dummy employee record for a class that noone had taken?

    Zbor,
    Yes if a new class is created then all the employees would need to take it , so it would need to be on the matrix as a missing class. The dummy record will work fine

    Thanks, that works.
