sorry about the previous post.... .here is a cleaned up version of
the table.

A big concern of mine is: What if a row is added on the next
run....like another box
is added, will this mess things up?

SHEET1 SHEET2
Shape | Color Shape | Color
------------------------ -------------------------
box blue box blue
box red box red
box pink box pink
circle blue cirlcle blue
circle green circle green
circle pink circle aquamarine
circle red circle red


SHEET3
