That thread has too many cooks and solutions. Perhaps time to reset. Could you please upload a sample file with sample data etc on some shared site like https://authentification.site and post back here the link to allow better understanding of how it is now and how you foresee.
Hi rizvisa1,
That site has been blocked by my organisation. I will upload a sample of what I am looking for later.
I will give you a simple example to help explain what I am trying to do;
Consider a scenario where you have one tab containing a list of people by job title (with other data). All other tabs in the workbook are templates for the job titles of interest - with v-lookups to pull back the appropriate information for each.
What I need to do is; populate column A of the relevent job title templates with peoples names, according to their job title so that the other fields in the template can pull in the rest of the information.
Any ideas of how I should proceed? Thanks for your prompt response.

I am one of those people from whom picture speaks louder than the words. I was not able to comprehend all that you said. From what I understand, I would say you would need a user defined function to do a sort of look up.
Hi Rzvisa,
As suggested, I have attached the sample to: https://authentification.site/files/22403075/sample_excel_query.xls
The detail outlined above should make sense when you see the example.
Thanks again,
Peter

Purpose:Take data from master sheet and create/append to based on unique values from a column in master sheet
Assumptions:
1. Master sheet is called "List". (Change in the code if the name is different)
2. On Master sheet and other sheets, the data starts from row2 and contains the column headers. (Change in the code its is not the case)
3. The unique value based on which data will be cut is used to name the sheets where the data related to that value is to be copied from master.
4. If the sheet where the data is to copied/cut exists, then append to the existing data. (Change in the code its is not the case)
4. If the cut sheet/report does not exists all column are to be copied from master sheet.
5. If the cut sheet/report does exists, only the columns that exist on cut sheet would be copied from master sheet.
Steps:
1. Read the assumptions
2. Make a backup copy of the file
3. Press ALT + F11 to start VBE
4. Click on insert and add a new module
5. Paste the code given below
6. Run the macro

Have to see to tell you. It should not have been like that
