sheet increasing the column numbers upward as you go actoss until you fill
alll coluns as required

In order to be able to use DataFilter, you need to have column headers
above your data

Sheet1:
-----------
A1 = "part_no"
A2 = 12345

Sheet2:
-----------
A1 = "part_no"
A2 thru A999: your part numbers

B1 = "PO_no"
B2 thru B999: your PO no's

etc...

Ardus - thanks for your help, however that isn't working. Either I am
doing something wrong or I've not explained it correctly.

What I am attempting is:

Sheet 1

Cell A1 = part number 12345

Sheet 2

Column A = various part numbers (several hundred)
Column B = PO number
Column C = PO quantity
Column D = PO due date
Column E = PO required date
Column F = PO actions
Column G = Supplier name

What I want to do is take the POs on sheet 2 that belong to part
number 12345 and bring them into sheet 1 in a table that looks at the
part number and pulls all the data that appears in columns B to G for
that part.

Some parts will have one PO €“ others could have dozens.

Does your idea still work? Or is there another solution?

(also just a note - I am doing this on a spreadsheet with 100+ tabs, 1
per part number and several hundred PO's. Therefore you can see why I
am attempting this)

Cheers.
