Using a Mastersheet to populate a sheet with different formating.

**JBSmithee** · 08-08-2012, 11:53 AM

Hello all,

I am a relative of novice when it comes to excel and I would like to ask the community for some help. This is my first post.

I am trying to use a mastersheet to copy data into a separate sheet, in the same workbook, to populate the format of a "product sticker". I have made a sample of this and attached it. All help is appriciated. I have tried to use a simple "this cell = that cell" but I found I would have to click each cell anyway which brings my purpose defeated.

Please help me!
Thanks!

Copy the column headings from Sheet 1 and paste special --> transpose in Cell B2 in Sheet2 to make the references consitent.

then in C2 use ..
=INDEX(Sheet1!$A$1:$H$7,MATCH($E$5,Sheet1!$F$1:$F$7,0),MATCH(B2,Sheet1!$A$1:$H$1,0))
and drag down

Replace the highlighted cell to pick the correct quantity no. I'd also do away with the merged cell in the quantity, It plays havoc with Excel

hope this helps!

This works perfectly! Thank you so much, hopefully I can be as help as you to an inquirer in the future. That was much more technical than I had thought.

Thanks again!
