Can anyone help me figure out how to get my script to work. I have a tracking database that will have an overview sheet and "Team" sheets. I need to figure out how to get all the data from column A-N to copy over to the corresponding Team page based on the number entered into column A. i.e. If the number 1 is entered into column A then the data from column A-N of that row copies over to Team1 sheet. I will need it to go from number 1-4/Team1-Team4 worksheet.

I have a code that does that and updates any cell that may be updated from the Overview page; however, if I run it constantly it continuously adds the information over and over again in the worksheet it goes with. I just need it to copy over anything already in the database, update a cell on both pages if a cell updates, and adds the data to the page it needs to go to if a new row of data is entered.

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
I think you're saying your code calls itself repeatedly? Or it makes changes, which triggers an event (e.g. Sheet Change), which makes changes, which triggers Sheet Change, which makes changes,...
You can disable events at the start of the code that runs first, then at the end of the code, enable events. I suggest using an error handler if you do this.
Here's an example

I have a database with information that each has an "identifying" number that has recently been added to it on the Overview sheet. I have the script that will now run and copy the already inputted data into the "Team" Sheet it belongs to. If I update a cell or add a new row, it runs again. So, where I may have 45 rows of information on sheet Team 1, if any update it made to the Overview Sheet I will now have 90 rows of information on sheet Team 1. I need the code to do an initial call, putting everything on the correct Team sheet, and if an update is done on any data already entered, it will just update that information on the Team sheet it is on, or if a new row of information is entered it will pick up the identifier and then copy that new information to the correct Team page. I hope I am making sense.

OK, but that doesn't reveal what conditions can be checked to prevent that. If you post a wb on a shared drive I may be able to take a look at it.
EDIT - I wanted to send the following to you in a pm but it seems you cannot receive them:

I say maybe because my dear friend of some 20 years died Wednesday and I can be moody and a bit withdrawn these days. I think I will have the patience to take a look, but I may not be able to manage a repeated back and forth for anyone's problem here. It's not just about your thread; it's all of them. I was OK when I posted, figuring it would be a quick answer so I hope that isn't going to be an issue for you. This afternoon is visitation; tomorrow, funeral.
