I'm making a spreadsheet for work where you first copy + paste a list of current investments and balances, and copy + paste a list of all available investments, to the spreadsheet. Right now the calculations just run straight across the row, pulling information from carious cells in that row. Ideally the information would copy as below.
InvestmentA Calc Calc Calc Calc InvestmentA Calc Calc Calc
InvestmentB Calc Calc Calc Calc InvestmentB Calc Calc Calc
InvestmentC Calc Calc Calc Calc InvestmentC Calc Calc Calc
But sometimes it doesn't, and I get something like:
InvestmentB Calc Calc Calc Calc InvestmentA Calc Calc Calc
InvestmentH Calc Calc Calc Calc InvestmentB Calc Calc Calc
InvestmentM Calc Calc Calc Calc InvestmentC Calc Calc Calc
What I need is a way to have the calculations on the first half of the spreadsheet, reference information in the cells with the same investment name, even if that information is in a different row.
Disclaimer: I consider myself an intelligent person, but I have no official education in programming or excel, except for one class in 9th grade. I'm teaching myself as I go here. In other words, it's best to assume I know nothing and teach me like a 2 year old.
