    Master to sub sheet

    I have inherited a very large tool inventory Master Sheet (approx 3700 tools) and was asked to break the master sheet into sub-sheets. The sub-sheets would represent each storage location (38 locations). I would like to be able to just make a change on the master list and have it auto fill the sub-sheet. Part of my problem is that this is an ever changing inventory (adding new tools, deleting old tools, etc...). I attempted to use the formula ='Master List'!A4 and filled it through each sheet. the problem with that was when i added a new row for a new tool or delete a row for a destroyed tool, it threw off all of the sub-sheets... is there a better way to do this?

    Yes, you can have a macro in the file. Each time you run it, the macro will clear the subsheets and then populate data starting from row 2 of your master file If you run the macro again, the subsheets are cleared and it starts again from row 2. This will help you to take care of the additions and deletions and also avoid duplicate data in the subsheets.
