Inputing Data
I have created a spreadsheet that I have to enter data into on a weekly
basis. And when I enter this data, I need it to update it's totals into another worksheet. I have linked both sheets together so everything is working great! However, there is one thing that I would love to correct if it is possible. When I enter my weekly information, I enter it in a downward manner (A1,A2,A3, etc.) But the linked worsheets fields are going accoss. (A1,B1,C1, etc). Is there a way that even though I entered my data in a downward fashion, it would still update the linked sheet going across with my information. The only soulution that I came up with was to redesigned the spreadsheets and make the collums for them same. If there is a better way than this, please let me know. Thanks. |

Inputing Data
I actually do not prefer to use any types of links. They tend to get broken
or corrupted from time to time. Instead I prefer to use a macro to send (or receive) the data I need. You may consider utilizing one spreadsheet as a database (or data source) and look into using some type of ADO connection to retrieve or send your data. Let me know if I can help out with this project... Mark "SIRSTEVE" wrote in message ... I have created a spreadsheet that I have to enter data into on a weekly basis.
