Any help please!
I have one workbook 3 worksheets. The data is exact the same but is sorted differently on each worksheet. What I want is the data (cell) from worksheet 1 to reference/update the data to workseet 2 and 3 instantly. The cells will not be the same cells in all 3 worksheets because it is sorted differently. I am not using numbers I am using text, which is another problem because the functions are mostly numeric. I just want the same data that I entered in worksheet1 on A1 to worksheet2 A20 and worksheet3 A40. Is this possible??? There has to be a way -- moseguer |

By keeping 'exactly the same data' in three places you are working against
yourself. Indeed this is one of the major 'sins' in database management. Why not have one set of data and sort it when needed. Recording a macro to do a sort is fairly easy. You could even have buttons to sort it in any of three ways. best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "moseguer" wrote in message ... Any help please!

Hmmm, I never thought of that. Will the macro work if I have to switch
columns to sort. It should huh... I'll try this. But since I already did the 3 worksheets and if it is possible in Excel, I'd like to know how. If it's possible. Macro may be the easier, I'll try it, Thanks -- moseguer "Bernard Liengme" wrote: By keeping 'exactly the same data' in three places you are working against yourself.
