How do I get linked grouped work sheet results to a seperate worksheet?

Ed

RE: Excel

Hi Edward,

Thank you for your question. Could you elaborate your case so I can understand how these worksheets are grouped? Are there formulas or consolidated or hyperlinked...etc?

Generally to link a specifc cell (dispite it's worksheet origin):
1) Type =
2) Use mouse to click on the original figure
3) press Enter

But there are many other ways to link worksheets.

Regards,

Katie

Hi Katie,

Thank you for respnding to my question.

I need to establish a method of linking the information on 8 seperated pages to a master sheet. The 8 pages display the same information but from differnt areas. I will tehn use the detail within the master sheet to display perfomance stats in charet data.

Regards

Eddie

RE: Excel

If you have a specifc function in mind, like SUM / AVERAGE / MAX / MIN / COUNT, you can use CONSOLIDATION.

    1. Open all your files
    2. On master sheet, select DATA menu > CONSOLIDATE
    3. Choose a function (e.g. SUM)
    4. Click in REFERENCE box, select file 1 and data table
    5. Press ADD
    6. Click in REFERENCE box again & select file 2 data table > ADD. Repeat until all 8 data tables are added.
    7. Tick all 3 boxes for labels in TOP ROW, LEFT COLUMN & linking source data
    8. Press OK.


This put all data together and the labels are collapsable. See if this is any use to you.

Excel tip:

Formula for last day of month

In some cases it is necessary to find the last day of a month for a given date. If you use the following formula, you can achieve this, ie; if you have a column of dates, use this formula to find the end of month for each day by using the fill handle. The formula is as follows, and assumes in this example that the first date in question is in cell C5, in any other cell type; =DATE(YEAR(C5),MONTH(C5)+1,1)-1
