    Pulling info out of an old layout

    Is there a way to convert one layout of a sheet to another layout.
    What I have is:
    a format that has info in A8:L13 (this is one entry)
    info in A14:L19 (another entry)
    Etc.....
    I have a new format that has all of each entry in the same row, so I can use it as a table.
    I can fiddle with the info(to make it match my new format) once I get it out, I just need to pull all of that data out without physically re-entering it.
    Is this Possible?

    Befuddled,

    Thanks for the workbook.

    There is no example in your workbook with the new layout.

    Please manually copy/enter the new format beginning in column N in worksheet 10-1-08 1st.

    Then post the updated workbook.

    I added an example of the new layout starting at N8 in the "10-01-08 1st" sheet

    Befuddled,

    Thanks for the updated workbook.

    Having a little problem with understanding where the information in range N9:AC9 is coming from.

    Can you redue the result on worksheet "10-1-08 1st", so that the information in range N9:AC9 is based on the first grouped entry on worksheet "10-1-08 1st".

    I adjusted the example. Each item is linked to where it comes from in the original info

    Befuddled,

    Detach/open workbook "Create New Layout - Befuddled - SDG.xlsm" and run macro "NewLayout" on any active worksheet.

    The macro will not run on worksheets "1st shift form", "2nd shift form", or "Instructions".

    I will try it, thanks for putting your time into this for me.
    Hopefully I will be able to trudge through you code and learn enough to write the same thing for a couple other projects I need to get to.
    Thanks
