Default Function or Formula help - get data from another sheet

I'm not sure if this is possible, it is similar to a DGET but not working.
Example
Sheet 1 - Columns - Area, Address, Date
multiple rows of data, each row represents one client record

Sheet 2
I want all the rows that match an Area number, i.e.
Display
Address and Date for rows that match area 4

Sheet 2 has several different formatted blocks and each block represents an
Area, and want to populate those blocks with the addresses & dates that meet
the Area criteria

i.e. Columns B-E list Area 4 addresses/dates
Columns G-J, list Area 2 addresses/dates
etc...

Don't know if this can be done in excel, trying to avoid having to create an
access database. Because it's like building a report based on the data and
criteria, but that's what trying to do, is build a report listing the data.
Pivot table couldnt' get it to work for me.

Any ideas.
Thanks
Nadine

You can use VLOOKUP() to get a single row matching at criteria, to get
multiple rows, see:

Default Function or Formula help - get data from another sheet

figured out the formula but doesn't give me results needed,
As address is in one column and date is in the next column
and I only get one row
dont' get all rows of addresses and dates that match the area
i.e.

Get list of all addresses and dates for Area 4,

Thanks but that was same answer received above doesn't meet my needs.
Thanks

Basically trying to get excel to build a report, Sheet 1 contains all the
date, i.e. area, name, address, date, each column has specific information,
think of maybe an employee table.

I want to extra specific rows of data, ie. all the records for Area 4 and
put it into a a specific table on Sheet 2.

Similar to a filter, but don't want to run an advance filter everytime want
the details, want Sheet 2 to update automatically when data is added to Sheet
1.

Thanks

Hi,

It is easy enough to auto update the output of an advanced filter (through
VBA). Do let me know if this would be OK with you
