Hi Chuck, thanks for your response - took me a couple of go's to get it
right
but (my error!). thanks very much - works a treat.

Have a great weekend,

Hi, I am using Excel 2000. I have several sheets in a workbook and am
trying
to create a formula so that when specific words are in a cell in one
sheet,
they appear (but as a differnt word) on another in the appropriate
cell.

EG: Sheet 3 - ARL, CL, SL, LSL, etc all to appear on Sheet 1 as
LEAVE?

Sheet 1 is an overview of the other sheets in the workbook an only
needs
high level detail.

Thanks for any advise. Kat
