Hi,
sample data:(asset class, security type, mv)
Equity, ETF, 10000
Equity, Common stock, 2500000
Fixed Income, CB, 125000
Fixed Income, T-Bill, 20000
I have a list of data I'm displaying in Excel with Asset class and security type. There can be multiple security types for each asset class. The asset class header row needs to be displayed in once color and the security type rows need to be displayed in another color. I accomplished that through Conditional formatting.
I only want to show the asset class once per group. so I tried changing the font of the asset class to match the font of the cell on the security type rows but when you try to print it (and in print preview) it prints the asset class for each security type row in column A. So I moved that data to column E and made it white to match the cell so it wont be visible and then in column A use a formula to check if the value was a header and if it is then place asset class value in column A.
but that only works for the first row.
here's my IF statement in column A. =IF(D16=1,E16,"")
please see attached spreadsheet for example.
thanks
