    Multiple sheets with sporadic data organized in to one sheet

    Hi I'm new to this forum and a 9 year, self taught excel user. I hope this is in the right Forum section. What I'm trying to do is take all of the people in a list in a specific "Organization" and send them an email. I've done this before but not with data this messed up.
    I have imported multiple files of mailing list in separate sheets in a workbook. Each list doesn't have tables or column headers but the do have specific font format styles that differentiates them (see below). The problem is is that I've got data in various cells on each sheet with no consistency except for the type face, type style and type size. This is just one sheet of many.

    Attached is a sample file.

    Each Sheet is laid out differently but maintains the cell same formatting below:

    On "Sheet 1" cell C2 is formatted with, Calibri, 10 pt, bold with "Boy Scout"
    I want this cell and all cells with that format to be transferred to my compilation sheet called "NEW SHEET" under the column header named "Organization" in column A.

    Then in "Sheet 1" cell C3 is formatted with Helvetica ,9 pt, bold with "Eagle".
    I want this cell and all with that format to be transferred to "NEW SHEET" under column header named "Rank" column b.

    Cell C4 on "Sheet 1" formatted differently w/ "Craig Bruneel" transferred on the same row under the header "Full Name" on "NEW SHEET" column c.

    Cell C5 on "Sheet 1" formatted differently w/ "794-7070"or blank transferred on the same row under the header "Phone" on "NEW SHEET" column d

    Same for cell C6 w/ "[email protected]".

    Skip to C8 you have the same sequence but for "Organization", "Girl Scout"
    etc. etc. etc.

    On a different sheet like "Sheet 2" the info may be in different columns and sells.
    ie. cell A2 has "Organization", "Cub Scout' etc. etc. etc.

    Multiply this by hundreds of different people that have no email address all on different sheets, in different cells and rows.

    The Question - Is there a way to easily put all of the "Calibri, 10 pt, bold" in a "NEW SHEET" in the workbook where I've created header columns of A1 = Organization, B1 = Rank, etc. automatically or do I have to manually enter formulas in each cell as I have done in the attached file? besides how i've done it

    I hope this isn't to verbose and complex but it's my first time. I have searched this forum and read about pivot tables, name function and visual basic. I have played with VB a little so if that is the only way to do this, I'll need some hand holding. Thanks in advance.

    Re: Multiple sheets with sporadic data organized in to one sheet

    To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook. The workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.

    To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'.
    To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.


    On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'.
    Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments.


    You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page.
    Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.


    To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file.


    To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page.
    Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.


    Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
    You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards

    Understood. Thank you. Where do I post my revised question and upload my revised sample worksheet? Do I just edit the one above?
