    Advice on Pulling from data entry to master sheet

    Morning all.

    I am after a kicking off point, this is what i am trying to do:

    I have a number of identical spreadsheets lets say 5 but this will be growing. Each user has their own copy for data entry purposes (have to be like this due access to different servers etc.

    What i want to do is write a code to link to a button that will go to each sheet (i have access to all servers) and pull the data back to a master sheet, so it will contain all the data centrally, from their, i can build the analysis and summary.

    This is where i need a bit of help, The data entry sheets are continuously in use and are growing by rows constantly, do i get the code to pull the whole sheet each time and return it to the master or only the ones since the last update? I have put an event code in so that every time cell b has data entered it logs in column a the date and time...

    Is their a better way? I don’t want to use links or at least ones that update when you open the book as i find them a nuisance, rather have it linked to a button so it can be done on demand?

    Does anyone have code that will help me with this?

    The data entry sheets are very straight forward, columns A to U basic data entry only using validation lists, the master sheet in structure is identical but contains the data from all the users.

    No one giant one, so for example data entry sheet 1 30 rows copies accross then data sheet 2 45 rows copy accross directly below and so, remembering that the number of rows in each data entry sheet is constantly growing.

    Cheers Roy
