Hi All

I have a worksheet that shows a whole load of data summarised in the table below.

Worksheet 1

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]

Now, while this is a master list, I want to create a dynamic (I think) worksheet where I can enter the code (as in A, B or C) into cell A2it self populates the sub codes, sub sub codes and details of all rows pertaining to that code letter. As in as follows:

Worksheet 2

[TD]Sub Title C2[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]a[/TD]
[TD]Sub Sub Title C2a[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

In summary, on worksheet 2, I want to enter the code (in cell A2 in this example) and the data from Worksheet 1 (sub code and sub sub code) pulled through in the positions shown. I can pull the data of the title by vlookup (I think)!

Also, I only want to populate rows with data if possible, as there will be static data below these tables on worksheet 2.

Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so, can you please show me how?

My other option is to have a worksheet for every code, and copy & paste the data, but I am hoping I can make it a bit slicker than that.

Very many thanks in advance, and I hope I have explained what I want simply enough!!

Matt
