    Post Client data Sheet - Help NEEDED!

    Good day.

    I have a Workbook "Client Report List". I need information to be carried over from Sheet 1 till Sheet 200, from Column B2 till B8 and copied over to the sheet "Clients Data". With a filter function should the client's information ("Client Name & Surname) already have been filled in then it only needs to update the "Last visited" column on "Clients Data" to the most recent date. I have used =Sheet1!$B$2 for the required fields but this does not help in filtering duplicated names and automatically updating to the most recent date in the "last visited" column. What formula or Macro can I use?

    200 sheets? Seriously? Why?? You only need one sheet with a drop down Data Validation client list. Then use VLOOKUP to populate the rest of the cells. If you need to print a page for every client, you could have a macro to loop through the client codes, populate the sheet and print it.

    Whatever, if you want 200 sheets, I'd use VLOOKUP to populate the cells, not a simple link.

    The Representatives of the company will be filling in the Client information on Sheets 1 to 200. This is for company records.
    The information they fill in is information the company does not have. So I cannot make a drop down list. With the information
    enter we will be able to build a database of current clients from the "Reps" as well as see when the client was last seen.
    The 200 sheets is just a standard, should the "Reps" visit 200 clients within that month.

    Try:

    Cell B4:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    copied across to column G

    Cell H4:
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.


    And add a new column I

    Cell I4:
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    Array entered with Ctrl-Shift-Enter rather than just Enter

    Column H will reflect the date of the visit on the relevant sheet. Column I will reflect the last visit for a mine/contact

    Copy all formulae down to row 203.

    Thank you TMS.

    The formulas did help with the date but the duplicated names are still showing.
    How can I get the unique values only? I.e That a name only appear once with the last visited date as the criteria of filter?

    Given the structure of your workbook, I'm not sure you can.

    The formulae basically extract the data from the visit sheets.

    You could, perhaps, insert a Pivot Table and just include the Contact Name and the Maximum of the Last Visited Date.

    Current view.png This is the current view with duplicated names

    Required view.png This is the end result I am looking for. I physically deleted the duplicated names and kept those
    with the most recent visited date.
