Drop Down Menu - Data Selection Request
All,
I have a work book with multiple worksheets in it. Each worksheet is named after a specific date eg 'DATE 01/02/09' , 'DATE 03/04/09' etc. There is also a summary worksheet called 'summary'. On this summary worksheet there is a dropdown menu which has all the 'DATE xxxxx' worksheets as a selection option. In each 'DATE xxxxx' worksheet there are two cells A1, and B1 with some numerical data in them. This data is in the same position in each 'DATE xxxxx' sheet. What I would like to be able to do is as follows: 1) User select 'DATE xxxxx' worksheet from the drop down menu on the summary sheet 2) This action will copy the data from A1 and B1 in the relevant 'DATE xxxxx' sheet and display it in the summary sheet in cells D2, and E2. Any help you could give me on this would be much appreciated, Regards Joseph Crabtree |
