I have 28 tabs of data (named AB, BC, CD, EF, FG, GH, HI, IJ, JK, KL, LM, MN, NO, OP, PQ, QR, RS, ST, TU, UV, VW, WX, XY, YZ, Z00, Z01, Z02, Z03) in my spread-sheet with varying data (columns and rows are inconsistent) in each tab. I need a summary tab with count of each column per tab(only should take columns with values into consideration, ignore empty columns) and should be dynamic (i.e. if someone adds an entry into column, the summary tab should update or could click on update to reflect new count). What would be the best way to accomplish this barring pivot tables as i need the flexibility of real-time update. Attached is what i am trying to accomplish?

Time to decide what would be best for the future so that solution ...
- provides a single report of everything required
- and (if necessary) additional options for further flexibility

To avoid user confusion ... consider making numbers not in subtotals very obvious!
Items could be marked with an asterisk within current layout (but that is a bit messy) or consider alternative layouts

eg - separate column for excluded items
View attachment 15177

eg - different column for each site with excluded items listed in lower section
(could insert a total column for all sites in Column B)
View attachment 15176

Post a picture if you prefer a different layout

Q Is the same list of headers to be excluded EVERY time, or would you want flexibility to exclude headers of your choosing at time of running report?
Hello,

The second example of having different columns for each site with excluded items listed in lower section is an ideal solution that will perfectly work for me and end users. If i could also have the flexibility to exclude headers of my choice at the time of running report that will be really great. Thanks for all your help until now.

Hello,
Thanks for your quick turnaround and all the help so far. I followed the above instructions and tested the result. All the values have appeared correctly and the exclusion works perfect. There are couple of minor additions I am hoping could be incorporated into this. Can the sum of Included for all sites be included in a separate column below (as shown in screen-shot). Similarly sum of excluded and sum of Total DID's. Also every time I run the report it creates a new sheet, can the same work-sheet be modified with the updated result just like the Summary page. I am open to creating a separate sheet called "DetailedSummary" and have "Run the report" from Summary page transpose results into the "DetailedSummary" sheet every time I run the report. I am just afraid that i might end up with way too many sheets if I don't do the housekeeping.

Ensure sheet "DetailedSummary" is in the wokbook before running

Please test code below
As the final step would you prefer everything to happen in the original summary sheet?

            .Cells(r, c) = .Cells(r + 6, c) - .Cells(r + 3, c)
        Next c
            .Cells(r + 7, 2) = Func.Sum(.Cells(r + 6, 2).Resize(, lastC - 1))
            .Cells(r + 4, 2) = Func.Sum(.Cells(r + 2, 2).Resize(, lastC - 1))
            .Cells(r + 1, 2) = Func.Sum(.Cells(r, 2).Resize(, lastC - 1))
'move total to correct line
        On Error Resume Next: x = .Range("A:A").Find(ZZ & "*").Row: On Error GoTo 0
        If x > 0 Then .Rows(r).Resize(3).Cut: .Cells(x, 1).Insert Shift:=xlDown
'remove XXX

        Next c
            .Cells(r + 7, 2) = Func.Sum(.Cells(r + 6, 2).Resize(, lastC - 1))

            cel.Value = Replace(cel.Value, ZZ, "")

    End With
End Sub
Tested the code. The sum of Excluded always came out as 0 (see attached screen-shot). Apart from that, the rest worked fine. And yes ideally would prefer everything to happen in original Summary sheet.
