Re: 2016 match data

Thank you! Yes, my brother mentioned doing that as well. Thank you for confirming that this is a good way to go about this. I'm trying to use Tableau to compile data and visualize it all.

Thank you for your help!

I'm not so sure it's a "good" way, but it's an quick-n-easy way.

In Excel, a better way would be to write a simple macro to pick each match that 469 played in, and copy it to a new sheet.

I've never used Tableau. Does it have a macro language? If so, you might want to investigate that.

There's no equivalent of macro calculations to VBA in Excel, though it does have some kind of data blending between different CSV sheets, as well as some flexibility in their table calculations.
But I've found the best way is to blend the data in Excel and then import into Tableau, which does require calculations and possibly macros.
