Afternoon all....
I'm attempting to create a management tool in the style of a 'database' and I'm using excel - I should probably have learnt access but I am where I am ~ and I love Excel.
Basically from two input sheets (where staff and job details are entered) I've managed to create a series of 52 weekly sheets to display the hours that each staff memebr will spend on each job over the next 52 weeks - when it's live etc...
I now want to creata a summary sheet that will look to the relevant sheet i.e. sheets W(1) to W(52) and return the number of hours by week of each staff member (regardless of which scheme they are working on) i.e. a staff usability by week calculator.
I've tried using a couple of different UDFs from forums, that scan each sheet looking for the date in question within a defined cell range across multiple sheets, but they are failing... Possibly because the dates are not unique to just the sheets I wish to search, although they are unique to the cell range I'm specifying?!?
For info they are:
VLOOKAllSheets(Look_Value As Variant, Tble_Array As Range, Col_num as Integer, Optional Range_look as Boolean)
MultVlookup(FindThis As Variant, LookIn As Range, SheetRange As String,OffsetColumn As Integer)
I've also attempted an INDIRECT command which I extracted from elsewhere, which refers to the sheet and cell range I wish to perform my VLOOKUP on i.e.:
=VLOOKUP(A2,INDIRECT(A1),3,FALSE)
Where A2 is the date I'm looking at, A1 is the "sheet:cell" reference in text format: i.e. W(12)!$C$6:$Z$6, and I'd like the 3rd column of this 1 row vlookup range returning... but still no joy.
Can anyone out there give me a hand with this one please?
I'm begging before something goes pop in my head!!
Cheers
