A typical 'set' of data is as follows:

Col
A B C D E
F
with headers:
Item Description Qty Unit Rate Total
and data:
M External brickwork 100 m2 50.00 5000.00

this will be followed by another set of data, just a few rows later.
The example above would have a rowheight of 12.75.

User A creates the workbook and the sets of data (with the
exception of values in cols E and F). User B adds these values.
User C has to work with their product.

What I'm struggling to achieve, is a way to let user C see the
'workings' that led user A to reach the quantity (100), and display
that alongside the relevent dataset.

In a simple case for the above qty, the workings might be:

2/ 10.00
2.00 40.00
¬¬¬¬ ' underline
4/ 15.00
1.00 60.00
¬¬¬¬ ¬¬¬¬¬
100.00

but this could go on for many rows, before the total is reached.

BTW, Cols G:J are reserved for other uses.

Could I have a hidden sheet, accessed by a cell in Col K, that
would display the workings whilst still also displaying the
relevent dataset alongside?

Any help much appreciated.

Regards.

You could use comment boxes. They are hidden and can pop
out when rolled over. Try this

Sub Commentator()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").NoteText _
"2 @ 10.00 x 2 = 40.00" & Chr(10) & _
"4 @ 15.00 x 1 = 60.00" & Chr(10) & _
"60.00 + 40.00 = 100.00"
End Sub
