![]() Hi Ellymoo, Seems a bit back the front to me. You don't link data from multiple sheets into one datasheet. That's a waste of time. You initially collect all of your data into one datasheet or multiple datasheets and then analyse & report from that source. All data which shares common fields is collected into one datasheet, with headings for each column (field). That is one table. You may have multiple tables in which case you may want multiple datasheets. When you have all of your data in structured datasheets like this, reporting is greatly simplified. Excel has a multitude of tools for analysing and reporting data when the data is stored in this datasheet format. I suspect a lot of your complex formulae may disappear with sound structuring and reporting methods. You should never - never - have to re-enter data on separate sheets. That is bad practice. So the short answer is to initially collect your data in the datasheet rather than trying to link or move it there later. -- John James ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John James's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=32690 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=532195 |
