Default Data collation killing me!!


Ok...no answer to my last post so I will try again.....

I have a data page (10 of them in fact identical except the tab names),
each of these has Column A as a description, Column B as subtotals of
each division and columns C through to Z as the date.

I then have the unenviable task of trying to collate the data from
dropdown boxes that the user selects the item number from, tabs to
column C and types in the number purchased. Column B subtotals along
the way.

How oh HOW can I do this three dimensional task as all 10 sheets need
to be collated into ONE report???????

Please anybody got any ideas?? I've tryed VLOOKUP, HLOOKUP, MATCH but
they will only look at one single line...and the item may have been
used between two dates......and they both need to be individual as at
the month end, the report uses dates to and from to calculate the
usage.....

Gosh I'm even confusing myself now!!!

Thanks
Sandi

umm...not sure how else to do it but ok...

Column A5:A20 Item Code
Column B21 Subtotal of items (changes as the dates changed and item
used)
Column C1 through to Column Z1 is where the user enters the date the
item was used
C100 Through to C150 is the NUMBER the user enters the times the item
was used.....

This is repeated on 10 different sheets for different Months
I then need to report on the Item number and the number of times it was
used between two dates. (a start and finish date.)

Does this make more sense?

...As I still have a problem visualising the data, can you post a sample w/book?

What's in columns C2 to C99 for example (may not be relevant but the layout
appears "strange" to me)?

Sorry to be pedantic but I was hoping that you could give me (us!) a sample
WORKBOOK with good data coverage and (even better) include a sample of the
expected output.
