    How to make summary from many sheets

    Hi,

    I have attached the students sample workbook, which contains Students, Math, English, Science, and Summary sheets, i would appriciate if any one could show me how to link student names from the students sheet to another sheet without copy and paste, and how to link the score in each subject to the summary sheet.

    I know there is a link approach, but that links a specific cell to another cell, however when i add a new student or remove one it wouldn't reflect to the linked sheet.

    could any one help please.

    Vlookup is the answer you need. Using vlookup, you can get the score in each subject to the summary sheet and also link student names from the student sheet to another sheet.
    If you add a new student, all you need to do is drag the formula down by 1 row per student. If you remove one, the formula will show a #N/A or blanks so you know that the student doesnt exist in the main sheet.

    arlu1201,

    I appreciate your help, let me explain more:

    These sheets may be in a different workbooks and may be managed by many users, i just put it in one workbook for sample.

    I need some way that i can get all students from separate excel sheet like a db, then get each subject score from corresponding sheet.

    Is there a way for you to obtain access to those workbooks directly to your system? Or will these workbooks be emailed to you once they have been populated by the respective user?

    I can provide you the code that will open the workbook, copy the contents and then close the file. Will this work?
