    Question Linking a dynamic database

    I have a database of data that I want to copy and paste (link) to a new sheet where I can manipulate the data to a more readable form. However, the database does not have a set number of cells and updates regularly (the reason why it needs to be linked). The database changes size on a daily basis either shrinking or expanding. Is there a way to link the database even though it need to be a dynamic range?

    Hi mfeng,

    You can use "define name" to take care of shrinking / expanding ranges..
    Try googling this and if stuck, upload a sample workbook. Thanks.
