Greetings, I have once again achieved the state of 'being stumped' so
made my way over to this forum for a little assistance. Any help on
the below would be greatly appreciated!
I have a set of spreadsheets organized in a directory hierarchy. Each
spreadsheet already contains the names for the spreadsheets below in
the hierarchy. My problem, is at every 'level' of this spreadsheet, I
need to include a function which can 'push down' information to all
spreadsheets below it. This is what the hierarchy resembles:
Tier 1
--Tier 2
----Tier 3
----Tier 3
----Tier 3
--Tier 2
----Tier 3
----Tier 3
----Tier 3
--Tier 2
----Tier 3
----Tier 3
----Tier 3
etc...
The hierarchy itself is actually 4 tiers deep (soon to be expanded to
6). What I want to happen is if a certain cell is updated at Tier 1,
all of the spreadsheets below it need to be updated with that same
information (tier 2 and 3). Similarly, if a cell is updated at Tier 2,
all of the spreadsheets (at pre determined cells) below need to be
updated with the same information (tier 3).
What makes this tricky, is I don't want to just have the path of all
the below spreadsheets with manuel cell updates and whatnot. I would
like for this to be all automated. I have already found a way to have
the spreadsheets 'find' all the spreadsheets one tier below them, and
that is what I want to use to create this 'push down' effect.
If the spreadsheet from Tier 1 has the key cell updated (it will update
with a macro, so there is no problem with 'starting' the push down
function), the Tier 1 spreadsheet will update the information in the
Tier 2 spreadsheet, then call the 'push down' function from the Tier 2
spreadsheets, which will update the information to the Tier 3
spreadsheets... and so on.
Please provide any assitance you can. I am very much so out of
options.
Also, if there is an easyer yet different way to accomplish the same
effect, PLEASE let me know. I want to learn as much as I can. Thanks
in advanced!
Respectfully,
Eddie
