    Deleting a line from one worksheet does not delete the corresponding line in another

    Hi,

    I have a spreadsheet that is a database of certain houses in the area for sale, with lots of associated property data. It is in a table format so I can easily change the order based on whatever aspect of the property I am trying to compare.
    In another worksheet I have a more readable version of the same data, nicer order, less detailed info. It takes its data directly from the worksheet with the table.

    When I delete lines from the table (which I do once I'm narrowing down a search), the corresponding line in the readable (comparable) worksheet doesn't disappear, leaving a whole lot of blank rows.

    Funny thing is, I'm sure I remember having this work properly a while back. I'm not sure what I've changed.

    Is anyone able to fix what I have done?

    Thanks

    Administrative Note:

    Is your data proprietary or have you desensitised it? If it is NOT desensitised, then you need to remove it from the workbook and replace it with dummy data.


    Members will tailor the solutions they offer to the version (NOT release number) of Office (Excel, NOT Windows) that you have. Please check that your forum profile is up-to-date in this respect. If you aren't sure, in Excel go to File | Account and report what it says below the MS logo at the top of that page. If your version is for Mac, please also state this. Thanks.

    At least one of those entries is a real Real Estate Agent … and the email addresses are very imaginative if they're not real … just saying. Think it needs Moderator intervention …

    I have removed it. It needs to be replaced with a sanitised version with dummy data. There have been at least seven downloads.
