Default Deleting with a referance...kinda...not sure what to call this!!

Hi folks,

Well I purchased 4 books, aan I've been learning more about EXcel and VBA.
Its a hard and fast learning curve. Excel is offering more capabilities than
I ever thought! Anyway...I have a problem as below:

I have two workbooks - Workbook 1 and Workbook 2

In Workbook 1 the user can enter data such as Age, Name Address.

I have a submit button linked to a macro which passes this info to Workbook
2 and saves it. Each time the button is clicked, the data moves down 1 row
and is saved, building up a long list of entries. I'm sure you know the
principle....anyway...

So then all the data saved in WorkBook 2 is linked back to be displayed in
Workbook 1 with a simple '='
The reason for this is that I can update the program by changing Workbook 1,
and the user can upgrade by replacing Workbook 1 without losing their data in
Workbook 2.....anyway....

My problem is thus:
The user can now see their saved item lists in Workbook 1 which is basically
the user interface. How can I let the user select any item from their
displayed lists and delete the selected item in Workbook 2 where the list is
saved?

How can I get the program to find the correct item in Workbook 2 and delete
that specific row. I can number each row entry, but still don't know how to
get that row of data deleted?

Does this make sense? I'm thinking this might require a section of VBA
code.....what do you think?

Thanks for any ideas...
