Default Impossible

One way is to use dataautofilterfilter on the namecopy/paste. next name
the same. Record a macro while doing and then clean it up
Another is to use a helper column with a number or other identifing mark for
THAT team and sort on that and copy/paste.
Or a for/next loop.

I've been searching this group for a while, and have realised you lot are
indeed guru's, and if anybody can do this, then you can. I don't think it
is possible, but then again some of the things i've read in here i didn't
think were possible in excel!

anyways, i wonder if someone can help me.

I need to be able to pick out specific rows from one worksheet, and paste
them into another worksheet (in the same file if poss).

This is a cut-down version of the table (there are 12 columns and 780
rows) which a database chucks out every day.

I am the team leader of Rajan, Bea and Lizzie. I need to get only the
data for them, and paste it into another file or worksheet. At the moment
i am sorting the employee column and then scrolling down to find my team
members (there are 700+ rows), selecting their data, and then pasting it
into another sheet.

A serious amount of cyber plutonic love will go out to whoever can solve
this.

Thanks very much if you try
