Hi, please help! On sheet 1 i have various info, some of which is fed through
to sheet 2. Sheet 1) Sheet 2) | Data from sheet1 | A1 A2 A3 A1 A2 A3 A4 Name Ref Date Name Ref Date Y/N I have used the unique values formula to pull the names etc from sheet 1 to sheet 2, this automatically puts them in alphabetical order (which is great). On sheet 2 i also add data in other columns, which is relevent to each person. When a new name is added on sheet 1, obviously the names move order on sheet 2, but the additional data added in other cells doesn't! Is it possible to make the whole row move? Please tell me it's easy! Thanks Becks P.s. I posted this question some time ago, but only got one reply, that didn't help, sorry for re-posting but i'm desperate! |

![]() I guess I'm confused. When you say 'unique values formula to pull the names from sheet 1 to sheet 2', - if you are on sheet 1 isn't that an intended push? Do you Copy and Paste the 'unique' data from sheet 1 to sheet 2? - if not what means are you using to transfer from sheet 1 to sheet 2? If you are using Copy/Paste, are you pasting over the previous values in columns A to C ? - thereby removing the identifuer for the data in column D ? The display of sheet 1 sheet 2) A1 A2 A3 A1 A2 A3 and on the next line A4 with Name Ref Date Name Ref Date and on the next line Y/N is further confusing. In examples (and in the way most people use Excel) columns A1 B1 C1 D1 go across the page and Rows A1 A2 A3 A4 go down the page. Thus, I wonder if you could re-explain what you are trying to achieve.

Sorry, my brains are scrambled at mo trying to solve this! On sheet1 i have:
A1 B1 C1 Name Ref Date This is then picked up on sheet2, and i have used the Uniquevalues formula to bring the names through. The other info is picked using a look up formula. Also on sheet2, in columns D:O i have blank cells where i enter other details for each person. However, when a new name is entered on sheet1 it alters the row position of the names on sheet2, but the data entered in D:O doesn't move. Is there any way to make the entire row move?

![]() The question still remains, how is the data transferred from sheet 1 to sheet 2? - are you using the Unique Values in Advanced Filter to select what you Copy and Paste? If so, then the Paste is overwriting the A cell that identified the D cell. ie in A19 was Smith W and you entered Y in D19 when you re-paste into column A there is no way to know where the 'Y' in column D belongs (you have overwritten its owner-Name). The easy solution is to enter the column D data into a table somewhere, and do the vLookup into column D based on column A. If you change column A then column D will also change.

To transfer the data i am using the formula:
=INDEX(UNIQUEVALUES(SHEET1!$A$2:$A$100,1),ROWS($1: 1)) in column A and then VLOOKUP IN B & C. Then in the blank cells i simply enter a "Y" when a bank statement is received from that person. But as you say, data in the first three columns change rows, so the "Y" entered, stays in the same row, against a different name?

![]() Simple solution is to enter the Y's in a separate table, (or add them as another column where the B and C data comes from) and continue the vLookups.
