Bob,
link information from the "Data Entry" into a corresponding row Sound like you have a direct link between sheets? e.g. A1 in the Data Entry sheet has a formula like Wage Summary!A1 There are many things that you can do (you did want ideas?) A VLookup is the first thing that comes to mind. As you enter names in the Wage Summary, the lookup would get the corresponding data from the Data Entry sheet based on the name. (SSN number would be a better lookup though). For some help on lookups, try he http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/vlookup.htm You could also AutoFilter the Wage Summary sheet and select Non Blank cells as the filter. Look at AutoFilter and Advanced Filter on this site: http://www.contextures.com/tiptech.html If you wanted to go the VBA route, there's even more possibilities. Without knowing how your sheets are set up, it's difficult to offer any specific advice. John "Bob Reynolds" wrote in message ... I am trying to make a form in excel 2002 that has the following characteristics. I enter data on one worksheet "Data Entry" consisting of name, address, ssn, address, monies owed, interest and total wages owed. The data entered can be for one person or 300 plus people. All data is confined to one row per person. I have a final version of this "Wage Summary" located on another tab in the workbook and link information from the "Data Entry" into a corresponding row in the "Wage Summary". My problem is if I only have two or three, I don't want to print 300 blank rows on the "Wage Summary" sheet. Right now I have different "Wage Summary" sheets linking 15, 30, 45, 60 and 96 persons and I am required to select the appropriate worksheet for them to fit. I need to have one "Wage Summary" that will show either the one or two persons owed wages or the 100 people or whatever amount of persons I have, using only one final worksheet to print (Wage Summary) Is there some type of programming that will look up and use only the data that is found and size the final product accordingly? Can someone give me some guidance with this. My skills are medium in excel. Thank you Bob Reynolds |
