Hi Everyone,. I am working on creating an Earned Value workbook to track the progress of several projects. Each worksheet in my book represents a Project which usually has some subtasks with their own budget and schedule. I have a summary/input table setup at the top left of my worksheet that captures info such as the Project Title, Code, Budget, Start and Finish Date etc... Below the summary table I have a subtask table that adds subtasks with their own start and finish date and budget.

Off to the right I am using this info to setup a time phased budget in a separate table. This time phased table lists the subtasks in each row and fills in the budget by week based on the total budget divided by the #weeks based on the start and finish date. Following?

Is there any way to post a workbook to share?

Here's where I need help. I think this is going to be a VBA task, maybe it requires a GUI/input dialog, but as the user is populating the subtasks with their own respective schedule and budget, i need that info to update my time phased table off to the right with the same info and fill in the budget per week based on the dates i setup in the Subtask table. I put a an example of what I am describing below. I would like the time phased budget table to auto setup the range based on the min and max dates provided in the sub tasks.

One other thing I need help with is that i want each worksheet to be titled based on the last 6 letter/numbers of the project code. So whenever I create a new project worksheet, the user should input the project code and the tab/worksheet would be titled whatever the last 6 of the project code.

Thanks in advance.

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
Hi,
one way to share your workbook here would be to place it in a dropbox & provide link to it.
