Excel spreadsheet

I have a spreadsheet with data regarding drugs availability that changes on a monthly basis. I would like to keep the history of issues hidden and just show the most recent update.
For example:
Drug xx:
UPDATE August 2020: Out of stock until September 2020
UPDATE July 2020: Out of stock until August 2020
June 2020: Manufacturing problems, likely out of stock until July 2020

So I would like to keep the Update August 2020 but keep the rest in another hidden tab? Is there a way in excel that this can be done automatically.

RE: Excel spreadsheet

Hi Maribel,

Thank you for the forum question.

Everything (almost) is possible in Excel, but what you want is complicated. We do not have a tool in Excel which can automate this process, but it can be VBA coded. You will need to have advanced VBA knowledge to work with solutions like this.

Kind regards
