HI All,

I have a worksheet with two colums of data. On another sheet I plan to present the data in an easier to read format.

What I want to do is populate the presentation sheet from the data by selecting the month at the top, possibly from a dropdown menu. once a month is selected the presentation page will show the data in selected cells.

I hope this is clear and would love some guidance on the easist way to do this

Hi Dazbert,

Could you upload your file (careful with personal info) using a filesharing site like www.speedyshare.com or ge.tt and then post back the download link?

My first thought is that you can use VLOOKUP for this (based on the month selected from the dropdown list).

Best regards,
Trowa

Hi There Trowa,

Thanks for your reply. I did indeed use vlookup. I had uploaded the file and had replies on this post, but they seem to have dissapeared....

Thanks again for taking the time to post.

Many thanks and Regards

That happened to me as well. Kioskea has a blacklist, which removes messages.

Did you use mediafire.com by any chance?

Try adjusting harmful / suspicious looking words by adding spaces or replacing a with @, i with 1 etc...

Personally I sent a private message to moderator Bionik with the message I wanted to post and he pointed out the word that was blacklisted.

Hopefully this helps.

Best regards,
Trowa
