Thread: Simple Merge of two lists/tables

    Simple Merge of two lists/tables

    Hi,

    I’ve got what should be a simple problem but I’m struggling with it.

    I have two tables. The first table contains three fruit: orange; apple, and pear. The second table contains 3 colours: red; yellow, and green.

    I’d like a macro to cycle through and create a new list of two columns* like so (i.e. creates a list of every combination):

    ColourFruit
    redorange
    redapple
    redpear
    yelloworange
    yellowapple
    yellowpear
    greenorange
    greenapple
    greenpear

    *I had some trouble getting it to display as two columns in this post but hopefully you get what I mean.

    Once I’ve mastered this I can apply to larger tables.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    With colors in column A and fruit in column B:

    [VBA]Sub MixMatch()
    K = 1
    For L = 1 To 3
    aa = Cells(L, 1)
    For M = 1 To 3
    bb = Cells(M, 2)
    Cells(K, 3) = aa
    Cells(K, 4) = bb
    K = K + 1
    Next
    Next
    End Sub
    [/VBA]
    Have a Great Day!
