Default Too Complicated For Me


This is what I want to do:

If info in Sheet 1, Column A matches a sheet name, then paste info from
Sheet 1, Columb B to B3 of the sheet with the matching name.

Can this be done?

As I read your question, it is a little confusing. You say you want to paste
infor from Sheet 1 COl B(a column) to "B3"(a cell) of the sheet with the same
name. Are you wanting to paste cell by cell or by column?

Either way, you could set up a macro to do it, but it would require some VBA
skill.

Or a more simple approach would be to just filter Sheet 1 Col A for each
sheet name, and paste the data one sheet at a time.

when A1=XXX, paste B1 into J2 of Sheet XXX

when A2=YYY, paste B2 into J2 of Sheet YYY

Sheet XXX and YYY already exist, as do 900 other sheets.

I have no VBA skill. :(

The problem becomes that if A1 doesn't = XXX I want it to check A2 and
continue to check down column A to the end of the list. I need it too
check the next cell in the column if it doesn't get a "true" response.

sounds like you need to do a VLOOKUP in column A to populate cell J2 in
the remaining sheets.
This will only work if column A is sorted alphabetically.

otherwise could you do a MATCH within an INDEX to find the data.
