    Help with repeated patterns in one column

    Hey Folks,

    I am trying to sort out some data which looks like this (example of one set):

    ColA Col B
    0 3240
    1 89201
    2 329832
    3 20
    4 893701
    5 122.33

    So column A keeps repeating (actually has 500 (0-500) values) column B changes, there are around 600 sets of A and B. So is it possible to extract each set in excel somehow.

    Any help would be useful, actual file is too large to upload, here is a link I uploaded the file to.

    Thank you.

    Hi Kiwidude,

    Welcome to the forum.

    What is the output you are expecting from the data set you have shown...?
    I guess sumproduct function can help here... Thanks.

    Thank you, unfortunately I am a basic excel user and hence I was advised by a colleague to come here for some help.
    I attach two figures as example screenshots of what I want to achieve (without copying and pasting) as there are more than 600 records.
    Thank you.

    Its better if you attach a sample excel file instead of a png. We can save time in giving you the solution instead of re-creating the png to a excel file.
