It is usually more helpful to explain how your sheets are organs. Sorry, these were ASCII-formatted tables, but something munged them on the way. Here is what the HTML-rendering looks like: https://i.imgur.com/rHHekvu.png So I want to "query" these sets of tables and for e.g. "Thu", get the values of the non-empty cells in the "Thu" columns on the various sheets. I can do an array copy, but that includes the empty cells. Also, ideally, I get the output sorted somehow. -- @martinkrafft | https://matrix.to/#/#madduck:madduck.net "if you are going to run a rinky-dink distro made by a couple of volunteers, why not run a rinky-dink distro made by a lot of volunteers?" -- jaldhar h. vyas spamtraps: madduck.bo...@madduck.net -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy

How would one go about creating a new sheet that consolidates all these together, so that I'd get a list of all the values for each of the columns, i.e. an array with the values {5,1,11,7,11,g,a,g,e,k} for "Thu", and so on, ... Er, exactly how do those become the values for Thursday? o Enter "=" (no quotes) into the target cell in your new sheet. o Click the tab of your source sheet to display it. o Click the source cell. o Press Enter (or click the Accept green tick icon in the Input Line). You can now drag the cell's fill handle in the target sheet to expand the area referenced to a row, a column, or another range. I trust this helps.

[libreoffice-users] Consolidating values from multiple sheets
Hey, I've got several sheets with values such as the following: | Thu | Fri | Sat | |:|:|:| | 5 | 6 | | | | 9 | 10 | | 1 | | 2 | | | 9 | 10 | | 11 | | 12 | | 7 | 8 | | | | 3 | 4 | | 11 | | 12 | Here is another | Thu | Fri | Sat | |:|:|:| | g | h | | | a | | b | | | i | j | | g | h | | | e | f | | | | c | d | | k | | l | How would one go about creating a new sheet that consolidates all these together, so that I'd get a list of all the values for each of the columns, i.e. an array with the values {5,1,11,7,11,g,a,g,e,k} for "Thu", and so on, and ideally without the blank lines? Is this possible without scripting? It has to run on Excel as well as Calc, and I don't think scripting is a sensible way to go for that. Ideally, I can also suppress duplicates *and* sort the result. Any ideas? -- @martinkrafft | https://matrix.to/#/#madduck:madduck.net "i can stand brute force, but brute reason is quite unbearable. there is something unfair about its use. it is hitting below the intellect." -- oscar wilde spamtraps: madduck.bo...@madduck.net -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
