for your opening post you can try this :
on Sheet1 in ShowSales2013,
create a named range called showdata, including Columns A-I minimum, I used the following : showdata =Sheet1!$A$2:$I:$3002
Then on bandformblank bandsheet, change your VLookup in F3 to this :
for the others, change the Red 4 to the proper column number
as to the maintaining the proper column references, where would you be inserting the columns?
you could probably use the match() on column headers instead of the actual number:
for the support bands youd have to change the Column headers to unique names(ie-SUPPORT1,SUPPORT2,SUPPORT3,SUPPORT4) on the band sheet in show sales
Hope this helps
Edit-
Should probably change the [ShowSales2013.xls]Sheet1!$A$2:$I$2 to a named range as well,then inserting columns shouldn't create #REF! errors
