Hi
Without getting too complicated, I would suggest using a pivot table, which is designed to summarise data. You can find it under the Data heading.

I agree that this would be good for summary numbers. I am not looking to do
summaries, I am looking for a way to generate a sublist from a master list. "Andy" wrote: Hi Without getting too complicated, I would suggest using a pivot table, which is designed to summarise data.
