    The workbook was not attached. The paperclip icon doesn't work - no don't ask!

    You'll need to use the Go Advanced button and look underneath your post for the Manage Attachments option.

    Re: Word links 3 to 4 to 5 to 6

    Hi,

    It's not at all clear to me what you're getting at here, and whether the data you show is original data or which may be results dependent on the data.

    In any case this is clearly a much simplified example and probably doesn't represent the size of your actual data. We often find that when we give an answer to what is a trivial non representative example when the solution is used with the real world data it doesn't work because of factors like string length and other stuff which is important but hasn't been mentioned.

    Therefore upload your real workbook (or at least a cut down copy), and manually add the results you expect to see. Clearly identify which is original data and which are the results and in a note clearly explain how you have arrived at your results.

    Re: Word links 3 to 4 to 5 to 6

    Thus the programming logic should be based on search the words , column a e i and m , find the common ,
    common is ABA with adds to right

    ABA
    ABAC
    ABACA
    ABACAS

    Re: Word links 3 to 4 to 5 to 6

    Sorry, but it's still not clear to me which are the result sheet/cells and which are original data.

    Can I suggest you take us through your thought process that takes you from a starting point and step by step explains how you move on and obtain the final result.

    Remember that whilst you are entirely familiar with the system you're trying to handle, we are all new to this.

    Re: Word links 3 to 4 to 5 to 6

    Raw data is sheet 1 , words on column a e i m that is 3 letters 4 letters 5 letters and 6 letters
    Result sheet 2 , back hook search
    Result sheet 3 , front hook search

    The result required is search 3 letter words from a and look into e i and m , and see if they connect any words to right , paste them on sheet 2
    The result required is search 3 letter words from a and look into e i and m , and see if they connect any words to left , paste them on sheet 3

    Any modification to raw data is invited too , for example pasting all words in one columns all letters and sort by alpha to see if any logical macro will pull what is desired

    You really should know better by now! Please remember that those who help here do so voluntarily and of their own goodwill. They live in many different time zones and many will be out at work right now if they are not asleep on the other side of the globe. This is not a paid 'service': members will help when they are ready and able to do so, and not 'on demand'. Please do not try to put pressure of time on anyone here: if you get the help you need today, that's fine, but you really should not count on it. Thanks for your understanding and patience.

    Re: Word links 3 to 4 to 5 to 6

    Maybe you have not stated your requirement with enough clarity. Either that, or helpers would like to see what you have tried: you should be able by now to adapt what you have learnt here to each of the new scenarios you ask about, but you show no sign of having tried to understand the solutions offered. Maybe that's why there is an apparent reluctance to help?
