Background
I have an
excel spreadsheet with the results of a pass/no-pass exam. Students are allowed to take the exam as often as they want until they either pass, or give up trying.
student ;; result ;; date
[email protected] ;; no-pass ;; 2000-06-07
[email protected] ;; pass ;; 2000-06-07
[email protected] ;; pass ;; 2000-06-07
[email protected] ;; no-pass ;; 2000-06-07
[email protected] ;; pass ;; 2000-06-07
[email protected] ;; pass ;; 2000-06-08
[email protected] ;; no-pass ;; 2000-06-08
Question
Using a pivot-table or something else, how can I get
excel to show me a clean report or representation of this data on another sheet that answers the question:
Who are all the people who took the exam, but never got a passing grade?
In the above example it would just show me
[email protected] ;; no-pass ;; with all the dates that delta took the exam.
I know
excel is not a database nor a reporting tool per-se, but it would be great if I could get it to do this.
