    Best way to collect forecast data from countries ?

    [Edited re comment below - thanks!]

    So I have a forecast in excel for a number of countries.
    I would like to create a spreadsheet that allows other people update the forecast without managing the cells directly.

    i.e. see the forecast, enter correction in adjacent cells- and click "accept" to have VBA implement that new forecast as the current.

    Help?

    Welcome to the forum!

    Impossible to advise without seeing some sample data.

    Will you please attach a sample Excel workbook? We are not able to work with or manipulate a picture of one and nobody wants to have to recreate your data from scratch.

    1. Make sure that your sample data are REPRESENTATIVE of your real data. The use of unrepresentative data is very frustrating and can lead to long delays in reaching a solution.

    2. Make sure that your desired results are also shown (mock up the results manually).

    3. Make sure that all confidential data is removed or replaced with dummy data first (e.g. names, addresses, E-mails, etc.).

    4. Try to avoid using merged cells as they cause lots of problems.

    Unfortunately the attachment icon doesn't work at the moment, so to attach an Excel file you have to do the following: just before posting, scroll down to Go Advanced and then scroll down to Manage Attachments. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.

    Please pay particular attention to point 2 (above): without an idea of your intended outcomes, it is often very difficult to offer appropriate advice.
