![]() Greetings, I have once again achieved the state of 'being stumped' so made my way over to this forum for a little assistance. Any help on the below would be greatly appreciated! I have a set of spreadsheets organized in a directory hierarchy. Each spreadsheet already contains the names for the spreadsheets below in the hierarchy. My problem, is at every 'level' of this spreadsheet, I need to include a function which can 'push down' information to all spreadsheets below it. This is what the hierarchy resembles: Tier 1 --Tier 2 ----Tier 3 ----Tier 3 ----Tier 3 --Tier 2 ----Tier 3 ----Tier 3 ----Tier 3 --Tier 2 ----Tier 3 ----Tier 3 ----Tier 3 etc... The hierarchy itself is actually 4 tiers deep (soon to be expanded to 6). What I want to happen is if a certain cell is updated at Tier 1, all of the spreadsheets below it need to be updated with that same information (tier 2 and 3). Similarly, if a cell is updated at Tier 2, all of the spreadsheets (at pre determined cells) below need to be updated with the same information (tier 3). What makes this tricky, is I don't want to just have the path of all the below spreadsheets with manuel cell updates and whatnot. I would like for this to be all automated. I have already found a way to have the spreadsheets 'find' all the spreadsheets one tier below them, and that is what I want to use to create this 'push down' effect. If the spreadsheet from Tier 1 has the key cell updated (it will update with a macro, so there is no problem with 'starting' the push down function), the Tier 1 spreadsheet will update the information in the Tier 2 spreadsheet, then call the 'push down' function from the Tier 2 spreadsheets, which will update the information to the Tier 3 spreadsheets... and so on. Please provide any assitance you can. I am very much so out of options. Also, if there is an easyer yet different way to accomplish the same effect, PLEASE let me know. I want to learn as much as I can. Thanks in advanced!
