I've been working on this 'file tree' database for my company for probably the last 2 weeks.I'm consistently getting stuck, I've tried pivot tables, hyperlinks, references, comments, and naming nothing seems to get close to what they want so I've gone back to the pivot table idea because it allows the End User to look at just a basic simple easy to use file path layout. The table range that is pulling in the data is actually A1, GJ581. Most of that is blank however other than Column A that is the so called "Master List" it lists all the documents in the database so from B1 to GJ581 there are items that show what document it is referenced in. I decided the easiest way of managing the names would be just a simple = function to that document so they only have to change 1 document title to see effects. The Pivot Table on the other sheet however is located solely in Column A and even maxed out in 255 characters the table loses some of the longer references. So my main problem is just that references aren't showing exactly due to the cut off of being too big. Is there anyway to list references simple in a straight down line? Such as:
Master
Ref
Ref
Ref
Instead of the defaulted:
Master
Ref
Ref
Ref
Because when in this mode it goes too far out. Any advice/suggestions would be greatly accepted and if you need to see screenshots I can upload some to a outside website such as photobucket or the company website and give urls accordingly. Thanks again for the help!
