Default copy specific data to another worksheet

Hi Joel,
Good thinking about the button to reduce wrong entries. The drop down list
is a Data Validation and is located in each cell in column 'M' on Sheet 1.

Cheers,

there are two way of doing theis. First to use a worksheet change function
when the drop down box is changed to move the data. but this is not really a
great way of doing this because if the wrong value is selected unwanted data
will be copied. the second method is to use a Button to perform the
operation after the value is selected which willreduce the number of wrong
items theat will be moved.


1) Is the Drop down List a Data validation or an Autofilter?

2) What cell is the Drop down list Located?

Hi, I posted a question here but recieved no responses so I shall re-phrase
the question in the hope that someone will take the bait.

Sheet 1. When a specific value (CH) is selected from a drop down list (in
column M), I would like to have all the data from cells on the same row (A-K)
copied to the next empty row in Sheet 2.
So, the theory is that data is entered by the user in cells A-M. When the
option 'CH' is selected from the list of options in cell M, A-K is copied to
Sheet 2 and the user is taken to Sheet 2 to add text if necessary.
Can someone advise if this is achievable or do I have to try a different
approach?
Thanks.
