Adding rows of different info from separate worksheets into summar
I have 12 monthly worksheets of catalogue item information on rows. I want to
build a summary worksheet that summarizes one of the columns (qty sold) by month. Problem is, when I run my VLookup to find the cat.#, invariably the catalogue has changed from month to month and returns incomplete information. how can I build my catalogue list in the summary worksheet from the associated monthly worksheets and get all of the cat.#'s that have come and gone through out the year? |
Hi Barry
I would look at using Data / Consolidation - it's a bit labourious doing it for 12 spreadsheets - so try it on 2 or 3 first to see if it gives you the information you want (you could also look at pivot tables from multiple consolidation ranges - check out Debra Dalgleish's site for details on this www.contextures.com). with the data / consolidation option - insert a new worksheet, click in say cell A4 and choose data / consolidate from the menu. then ensure that you tick the three boxes at the bottom - then click in the reference line and then choose your first range (choose the cat # column and the quantity sold column) .. then click ADD - repeat for all sheets - then click OK.
