One sheet in a workbook contains these columns:
Product Category, Product Name, Product Bitrate
I want to use the table in 2 ways:
1 - present a list of Categories only, from which the user selects 1 or more
to be processed
2 - in the processing, use the Average of the Bitrate of products in the
selected category/categories.
If this was a SQL database, the solutions would be:
1 - SELECT Category FROM ... GROUP BY Category as the source for a listbox
2 - SELECT Category, AVG(Bitrate) FROM ... GROUP BY Category
Is a Pivot table part of the solution? If so, how do I extract data from a
pivot table?
Can someone get me started doing this in Excel?
Thanks for any help.
