I have been banging my head on my desk for the past 3 days
trying to figure this one out. I have 2 worksheets.
In cell b3 on sheet1 I have a dept number. On sheet2, I
want to find cells that match this dept number and copy
info from 2 columns to the right of dept number. ie:

Store Dept LY Sales $ TY Sales $
5899 DP301 SWEATERS 3023 6159
5758 DP301 SWEATERS 3379 2102
5273 DP302 KNITS TOPS 1476 1301
5225 DP302 KNITS TOPS 1386 1528

I want to copy all of LY and TY Sales to another sheet for
the specific Dept given. Any ideas??

This is actually a large file that copies multiple depts
on to different sheets and the vlookup links take up to 2
1/2 hours to update all links. Copying and pasting data
shortened process to minutes. Unfortunately, the number
of stores varies weekly and by depts.
