    Data entry form to populate certain table dependent on validation list

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a data entry form/sheet. Where I can select a unit id from a validation list and enter a date and meter reading and then submit the data and it will append to the bottom of a table, specific to the unit selected, in a separate sheet.
    I have an example sheet that I would like it to look like, there is only 3 tables in the tables sheet, but my intent is to have a separate table for each unit; 66 in total.

    Thanks

    i'll do it now, thanks.
    One last question, is it possible to use 'enter' key to submit?

    Re: Data entry form to populate certain table dependent on validation list

    Refer to the attached. So as per the code now, once you input the SMU in F7 on Data Entry Tab, the form data is transferred to the Tables Tab in the relevant Table. That's the only way you can use the Enter key to submit the form data.
    You can delete the button if not required.
