Hello,
Thank you for your answer. I am sorry about a bad explanation of the
problem.
It is correct as I wrote that the data input for the price calculation are
stored in one row for each product (i.e. row 2 for product A, row 3 for
product B, etc.). The price model is based on three input data (for each
product).
The clue here is that the Price Model is a quite complex spreadsheet. The
input data has to be entered into cells B2, C2, D2 in sheet "pricemodel".
When this is done, a result comes into cell E2 in the same sheet. This
result should then be returned into cell D2 in the sheet "data".
When this is done for the first product, cells B2, C2, and D2 in sheet
"pricemodel" should be emptied, and the values for the second product (cells
A3, B3, C3 in sheet "data") should be entered into cells B2, C2, D2 in sheet
"pricemodel", and the result for the second product should be returned to
cell D3 in sheet "data". This should then continue until it is done for all
about 200 products. I suppose some kind of macro may be needed.
The values have to be put into those three input cells (B2, C2, D2) in the
sheet "pricemodel", it is (from my point of view) not possible to copy these
cells downward in the sheet "pricemodel", because of a lot of underlying
formulas which is included in the price model.
Was this an acceptable clarification, and do anyone have a solution ?
Best regards,
Eirik
