    Formulas cannot remove anything from other cells, you will need VBA for that.

    Also, I suggest that you upload a small (clean) sample workbook (not a pic) of what you are working with, and what your expected outcome would look like.

    To attach a file to your post,
    click advanced (next to quick post),
    scroll down until you see "manage file",
    click that and select "add files" (top right corner).
    click "select files" find your file, click "open" click "upload" click 'done" bottom right. click "submit reply"

    Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
    You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards

    I think what im trying to do is use macros in the form of a drop down box, but to move a row of data???

    For members who may respond here, please note the contents of this earlier thread from Mr Newbold

    In particular if you offer advice that he doesn't agree with you are quite likely to get a negative rep as I did.

    Are you being deliberately provocative in giving me another negative rep?

    ...for the record Mr N, that last post wasn't a rhetorical question.
    Your response - or lack of response will determine your continued presence here.

    I think you need to stop commenting on my posts, and trying to bully me

    If this bickering continues, I shall close the thread.

    For the record, Davy, awarding negative rep for a suggested solution or workaround that didn't suit you was out of order, and I am not surprised that Richard took umbrage. Please do not do that again. Remember that people are here to help you on a purely voluntary basis: please treat all of us with the respect we deserve. Thanks.
