I'm trying to figure out a way to make a sort of template that i can insert into a sheet many times, to make a timetable for a game i'm playing, and each time i insert this 'template' it copies data from the next row down from the table,
all the data is in 2 tables, one for 'station data' the other for 'speed data', each row of the table has all the data needed for a single entry in the 'human readable sheet' but the 'template' thing needs to have at least 6 rows,
So at the moment when i try to copy and paste the timetable entry once i've set up the cell references to the tables cells, excel pulls the data from the table 6 rows down instead of one, thus it displays the wrong entry.
Below is part of my data sheet.
And below is the sheet where i make the data into a timetable, the yellow highlighter is to distinguish the 2 separate entries:
There are 2 entries on the above sheet, eventually there will be upto 50.
Each entry is 6 rows tall, but that may change occasionally as some entries that need more room, but i'd do that after the timetable is populated.
For the first entry i manually set it to pull the data from row 2 of the table,
And on the second entry i have typed the names of the columns in the tables that data is supposed to come from, so the second entry should be pulling it's data from row 3 of the table, and the next entry would pull the data from row 4 of the table and so on.
Is it possibly to make a tepmlate type thing that i can simply insert as needed, tell it the table row to read from, and it gets the correct data from the columns?
