    Accessing List Data

    Hi All,
    I hope someone can help me with this.

    How can I reproduce list data with filtering on various other sheets in my workbook.

    I have a master price list done as a LIST. This includes, BRAND, MODEL, NAME, PRICE, CATEGORY etc

    I wish to display this list data on other pages, BUT need to filter it and split it up.
    For example on sheet 2 it must display as follows

    MODEL, NAME, PRICE - ** but only from BRAND X and CATEGORY Y **
    then a heading.. then
    MODEL, NAME, PRICE - ** but only from BRAND X and CATEGORY Z **

    then a few line lower on same sheet

    MODEL, NAME, PRICE - ** but only from BRAND Q and CATEGORY R **

    this is easy enough if I just link the cells, but when new data is added to the main list I need all the new data to be included in each of the sections as above, so new rows must be added and the page must adjust automically.

    There is more that I need to do, but with the information on how to achieve the above I should be able to sort the rest.

    I hope someone can help me with a data get or filter solution to make this work well.

    thanks in advance.

    Bill

    You could use programming, and advanced filters, to update the lists on
    the second sheet. Create criteria ranges on a hidden sheet, to specify
    what you need in each section.

    There are Advanced Filter instructions here that may help you get started:

    Record a macro as you perform the steps, then modify the recorded code
    as required.
