Hi guys, I have put together a workbook to prepare quotations for
electronic systems which looks something like this (Excel 2010) it's not
formatted well in this post, but in this example there are 4 columns
headed "Qty", "£ Each", "Description", "Total":-

Qty £ Each Description Total

1 * * * £1,500.00 * * *NR1 System Controller £1,500.00
0 * * * £ 630.50 * * * AR Audio Router
2 * * * £1,200.00 * * *Audio I/P Interface £2,400.00
1 * * * £ 929.50 * * * P500 * *1 x 500 Watt * * £ 929.50
0 * * * £1,103.70 * * *P250 1 x 250 Watt
2 * * * £1,300.00 * * *P125 1 x 125 Watt * * * *£2,600.00
0 * * * £1,183.00 * * *P60 1 x 60 Watt

It is simple to select the quantity, which then calculates the total, as
you can see some items are not included, but having them included in the
list for selection acts as an aid de memoir to ensure the correct items
are included in the overall system. I have included lots of other
functions that automatically calculate the power consumption, equipment
rack size, engineering time etc., dependent upon the items included.
These figures appear in another tab in the workbook.

The bit I'm stuck with is this; how can I copy the selected items
(values, description, £) and omit those with zero quantity to another
sheet, or even Word, so that I can use this to send to the customer.

I've played around with VLOOKUP and PivotTable, but I'm not getting very
far.

Hope someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

Charles
