    Transferring completed tasks! HELP!

    Hi! I'm new to this... and not so great at excel!


    I have a workbook with 2 worksheets. One is named Action Items, the other is Completed Action Items.

    Once an item is COMPLETE in worksheet 1, how can I get the entire row to move to worksheet 2??

    Thanks!!

    Re: Transferring completed tasks! HELP!

    Take a look at this worksheet. Doing this sort of thing is a little complex.
    First, I inserted a column F on your "Action Items" tab for "Actual Date Completed" as that is the criteria you are using to determine whether items are to be moved.

    Then in 'Completed Action Items'!A5 dragged down

    The "Action Items'!$A:$A" (shown in red) determines which column you want returned and the

    SMALL(INDEX(ROW('Action Items'!$F$5:$F$11)+NOT(ISNUMBER('Action Items'!$F$5:$F$11))*1000,0),ROW(A1))

    determines which rows you want returned (ones which have dates in column F)

    Is this what you wanted?

    Thank you Chemist! I input a date (as you did) in the 'actual completed date' column, but nothing moved to the 'Completed Actions' worksheet. I'd like to get that entire row deleted from worksheet 1 and moved to worksheet 2 once the 'actual completed date' (column F) has a date entered into it.

    Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it!

    Okay, if you want rows deleted as they are moved over to sheet 2, you'll need a VBA/macro solution. I don't have a lot of experience with that so will ask someone to help you.

    Ok at the least, how do I just make it where certain cells copy to the next worksheet in certain cells?

    Re: Transferring completed tasks! HELP!

    So basically once a project is complete and a date is entered, how can you move the data (not delete it) to the 2nd worksheet?
    Moving data in column A to column A in worksheet 2, data from column B to column B in worksheet 2, etc.

    Did you look at my attachment? try adding dates (or removing dates) from that and see if they are transferred over. Is it not working?

    One last thing, why can't I get the size the same on worksheet 2 as 1. I wanted it identical but worksheet 2 is bigger? The fonts and such are the same size...
