I'm trying to mirror certain columns & rows from one worksheet to the next.
I have the formula that copies the cells from the first worksheet to the
next, (='Sheet 1'!B10) but when rows are inserted on the first worksheet I'd
like them to automatically be inserted on the next one...is this possible?

One way ..

In Sheet2,
Instead of using simple link formulas in A1, eg: =Sheet1!A1
with A1 then copied across / down

Put instead in A1:
=IF(OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,ROW(A1)-1,COLUMN(A1)-1)=0,"",OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,ROW(Â*A1)-1,COLUMN(A1)-1))

Then just copy A1 across / down as required. This returns the same kind of
links as the former but with the added flexibility that any new row
insertions in Sheet1 (within the linked area) will now be reflected in
Sheet2. Test it out and see for yourself.

Thanks Max, that answered my question...but I have just one more...

The two worksheets I have I obviously want the same info in the first two
columns, (names of studies), and then the rest of the columns have different
information on them that go with the study names (don't know if this is
making any sense)...so if a row is entered on the first worksheet, what's
happening is the rows are entered in the second worksheet (which is great),
BUT the info in the rest of the columns is staying exactly where it was...and
I need it to follow the first two columns, but not copy the info from the
other worksheet.

Am I making sense?

Maybe this will help me explain:
Sheet1:
Column A Column B Column C
Study #1 Company Name Company Study #
Study #2 Company Name Company Study #

Sheet2:
Column A Column B Column C
Study #1 Company Name Date Study #1 Report Received
Study #2 Company Name Date Study #2 Report Received

If I enter a row into Sheet1 I get this on sheet 2:
Column A Column B Column C
Date Study #1 Report
Received
Study #1 Company Name Date Study #2 Report Received
Study #2 Company Name

Does this make better sense? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Good to hear that it answered your orig. posting ..

...but I have just one more...

I'm out of suggestions for you on your new query. You might wish to try a
fresh posting in .programming for a possible programming solution.
