hi,

i have 2 WB's
WB1 --> sheets 1(update1)-->columns(first name, middle name, last name, address, address1...)
WB2 -->8sheets(with specific names) -->columns(varies but might have same column name as in WB1 or might not have)

issue: need to copy a column from WB1 say first name, paste it in all relavent sheets with column name "first name"
again search for last name and paste in WB2 on relavent sheets and in relavent column name,
