If desired, send your file to my address below. I will only look if:
1. You send a copy of this message on an inserted sheet
2. You give me the newsgroup and the subject line
3. You send a clear explanation of what you want
4. You send before/after examples and expected results.

...
i am only at a basic level with excel but need help to allow me to
filter up to several thousand rows of data down to one line with the
relevant data i can then use elswhere.
seen loads of stuff on tinternet which probably works but above my
level of knowledge.
i have a very simple spreadsheet which explains what i want but cannot
attach, if anyone is kind enough to send me their email i will forward
it to them.
OR can you point me in the right direction for help?


cheers, and a merry christmas (if you beleive in it) and a prosperous
new year to you all.....
