took it home and have been trying to crack it! I like to try and get
there myself as I hate being beaten - if I don't do it by Monday I will
send it, if that's ok. Very kind of you.

I was hoping a macro would be the saviour, I'll try the VLOOKUP but
that is an area of excel that I am not too familiar with....

Thanks anyway - have to resign myself to a repetitive strain injury!

If you know a list of the names for each of the teams, you could put

together
a VLOOKUP table (names down one column and coresponding teamnumber

down
the
one to the right of it) and using a helper column, insert a VLOOKUP

formula
to create a TeamNumber column....from there, Copy PasteSpecial

Values to
get rid of the formulas, and then use the AutoFilter as previously

described.

Unfortunately, no team number is available!!

I wish it was.....

Thanks for the reply.

Providing you have a column which indicates "Team Number", then

just
do Data
Filter AutoFilter and select the arrow at the top of the

TeamNumber
column and choose whichever team you wish to view.......when

finished, just
do Data Filter Autofilter again to return things to

normal..........

I have a tab with 60 names in column A with at least 70

entries
per
person on seperate rows [going from col A to L]

These 60 names belong to 5 teams and I would like to be able

to
run a
macro to search for the 12 names per team and then place them

onto
a
seperate tab for each team.

That is my ideal, failing that even splitting them into teams

on
one
tab would greatly reduce the time it currently takes to

perform
this
task.

Hope someone can help!

Thank you.
