how do I import data from one excel spreadsheet into another?
I created a nice template which has all the formatting I like etc.
Once a month I receive a spreadsheet which has all that month's data (which I refer to as the "raw" data). This spreadsheet has more data (i.e columns) than I need and uses different column labels than my template. In short, I want to take the "raw data" and insert it into my template. Is there a wizard to do this as with, for example, creating a mailing list from a spreadsheet? |

Hi Frank
You would need to create a macro for this yourself. Switch on the macro recorder, ToolsMacrosRecord new Macro Carry out the steps of deleting the un-required columns in a copy of your Raw data, then copying from row 2 onward all of the data that remains and use Paste SpecialValues to row 2 of your template. Switch off the Recorder by pressing the large square Stop button. -- Regards Roger Govier "Frank" wrote in message ...
