    As user fills out data sheet, then fill out a results sheet based on data sheet entry

    I have a data sheet that a user will continue to add records in the last empty row. Then they will place an "x" into (3) columns indicating what type of data it is.

    I have a seperate sheet dedicated to each Column type. Depending upon where they place the X (in whichever Column), then it shows on that specified results page. How do I set up a feature that once a user enters in the data in the last row, it will automatically be added to that specified results sheet?

    I have a sample workbook attached. Its pretty easy and self explanatory once you see it.

    Hello clemsoncooz,

    What if your Selections on the Data Sheet Changes to different Cells? Will the last row always be what it is now, or could it go down further?

    With the present setup, I have made a few simple changes, which might serve your purpose better, if I understand you correctly.

    See attached WorkBook

    You could try using an events macro.

    Thanks for looking at this Winon.

    The last row on the data sheet will change as the user enters data. As each row is populated, that is when I would want them to appear on the Results page. This isnt a one time event, but a contineous event, so I think I need something that uses an event change much like Pichignualas has recommended....I just dont know how to do it.

    OK try this code. But mind you, paste it on the code that corresponds to the page named "DATA".

    The location of Events macro codes is important, otherwise they don't work. I also attach the file you uploaded with the working macro.

    Hope that helps.

    btw, if you change a cell that is part of an entry that was already there it will copy it again. also, this works regardless of what the user writes on the column that shows which type of data it is. if you want it to work only when an "x" is typed, then change the line

    Very Cool Pichingualas. Thank you very much! This does help!

    What about if you were to delete an X or change it? I recieve an error " run Time error 13: Type Mismatch" (debug takes me to val = target.value)

    If I delete an "X" - I would like the sheet to update and remove the "TEXT" from the data column ON the RESULTs pages. Can this be done?
