    Notes Field From Matching Month

    Hi,

    Is there a formula to fill the Notes field on the Monthly Analysis sheet from the proper sheet months 1-12?

    Thank you for your help

    Not sure if you can get formula for this that can do it.

    You can use concatenate function to join text like this
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Or, use code below to get the value

    I tried the formula but it isn't filling the notes field.

    I don't want to combine the notes.

    I just would like the particular month's notes.

    For instance in January: 'January is cold'

    Probably not without a long repetitive IF formula.

    Re: Notes Field From Matching Month

    Hi,

    You asked for a formula. You could use one like

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.

    extend that to cover the other sheets and set the Monthly Analysis Cell to 'Wrap Text' - if indeed that's what you want.

    Incidentally I note that you are using merged cells. You should seriously consider that practice. Most of us avoid them like the plague since they cause too many problems for all sorts of reasons that needn't concern us now.

    You can use CONCAT or TEXTJOIN function as mentioned above for all the sheets text

    You can even call as a formula from Worksheet, if that what you would prefer
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    would do the job, if you have this code on the standard module

    Re: Notes Field From Matching Month

    Okay I think I have not asked properly.

    If I select the January sheet (cell B1) on the Monthly Analysis sheet then cell H34 will have:

    January is cold

    Thank you
