    Populate summary sheet with values within specific month column on data sheet...

    Hello all,

    I've been trying to figure out how to do the inquiry below for a while and came across this forum via google. Needless to say, after searching around, this place is a great resource! I registered and have bookmarked!

    I am trying to create a project summary file which pulls data that is manually entered into one sheet and populates the values on another sheet. Normally, that's easy.

    Now, maybe my inquiry is easy too but I'm unsure how to do it. The "Summary" sheet has a month typed in when the file is created for that month. Based on that month entered, I want the data cells on the "Summary" sheet to pull data from the "Data" sheet for that particular month.

    I've attached an example to help clarify. In this, based on the month entered in cell C1 on the "Summary" sheet, I'd like C4 on the same sheet to show the data in cell H8 on the "Data" sheet. The same forumla method would also apply for C5, C6, 13, 14, 15.

    Let me know if I need to change formatting methods for the month cells/rows, etc.

    Thanks in advance!

    Put this formula in cell C5 of the summary tab and copy it into the other cells you want a quick reference in.
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Next, you have to make sure the value & format in cell C1 of the Summary tab is the same as the values & formats in row 4 of your Data tab.

    On another note, the reference you have in cell K2 of the Data tab is broken.
    Don't just use the answers provided for you. Try to understand how it works by reverse engineering or asking about it.

    Thanks! But it's not quite working... It comes up with $0 when I paste in C5.

    And yeah, K2 was a leftover from the stripped down file I used for this example. No biggie on that one.

    Thanks

    Hi
    Please see attached solution. Please note that on the Data sheet the dates need to be entered as text and not date or the formulae will not work.

    Apologies, I should have said put it in cell C4.
    With that being said, I think you should go with ARGK's solution. the HLookup is much cleaner & simpler than the INDEX-MATCH function I provided.
