Insert rows in linked table that are added to secondary table
I am trying to work with linked tables so that I only have to type data once
and then other sheets automatically update. If I change existing data, both tables update. The problem comes in when I try to add data. For example, I need to add row 6 to a table with 9 items existing. When I add row 6 to the source table, the secondary table updates the already existing field as far as where they are, but will not add in row 6. HELP!!!!! |

Say your data was on Sheet1, from A1 to A9.
Enter this formula in the other sheet, and copy down *more* rows (say to A15) then you presently have data in, to prepare beforehand for the addition of extra rows. =INDIRECT("'Sheet1'!A"&ROWS($1:1)) -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Ida LaValley" wrote in message ...

Actually, a non-volatile function might be better:
=INDEX(Sheet1!A:A,ROWS($1:1)) And copy down. -- Regards, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "RagDyer" wrote in message ...
