Hi, i am still in learning process with Excel i am trying to make head to tail of a thing so here is my question and please if you can give me some guidance on how to sort this out for me,

so i created this excel form that i am trying to introduce to work and i managed to get most of the thing sorted

my workbook contains 2 sheets sheet 1 (DGN EMPTY) being the main one and (Approved List) sheet 2.

  • Sheet 1 is gonna be used to print and store as hard document for office purpose.
  • inside sheet 1 i have few rows
  • View attachment 91500i want them to auto- populate from sheet 2
  • 1683894640576.png
image on left is sheet 1 and sheet 2
auto populate in the sense if row has info but columns are empty i don't want that data in the row on sheet 1
but if both row and column has info i want them to auto populate each row automatically as info i filled out on sheet 2 in their corresponding cell

any help will be great thank you.
 

Excel Facts

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
sounds like a vlookup or index/match may work to look up the value - list 1 / list 2 etc and then populate the other columns - but wheres the data coming from
the attachment does not work

Note: Images are difficult to see , and also requires that I input all the data myself, which means I may make an error, which is very time consuming, and from my point of view less likely to get a response, if a complicated spreadsheet. Plus we cannot see any of the formulas used.

Therefore -

A SMALL sample spreadsheet, around 10-20 rows, would help a lot here, with all sensitive data removed, and expected results mocked up and manually entered, with a few notes of explanation.

This will possibly enable a quicker and more accurate solution for you.

MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data and will allow us to copy/paste your sample data into our Excel spreadsheets, saving a lot of time.

You can also test to see if it works ok, in the "Test Here" forum.

OR if you cannot get XL2BB to work, or have restrictions on your PC

then put the sample spreadsheet onto a share

I only tend to goto OneDrive, Dropbox or google docs , as I'm never certain of other random share sites and possible virus.
Please make sure you have a representative data sample and also that the data has been desensitised, remember this site is open to anyone with internet access to see - so any sensitive / personal data should be removed

Make sure you set any share or google to share to everyone
