copying data to summary sheet

[Max]

I have say 12 sheets for 12 months in a excel workbook

each sheet has say 4 columns "Activity"(in col A), "Start"(in col b),
"Finish"(in col c), "Status"(in col d)
each sheet has a definite number of rows for data entry and cant
exceed
beyond these values(ex:A7 to A39 for "activity" similarly b7 to b39
for
"start"...)


I want to have a summary sheet with the same 4 columns "Activity"(col
A),
"Start"(col b), "Finish"(col c), "Status"(col d)

I have 2 questions

1) whenever a data entry is made in any of the 12 worksheets (between
rows 7
to 39 for A, B, C, D colms), the same values should automatically be
copied
onto the summary sheet.

2) say for example in 1st sheet a project name "xyz CR" is entered
under Activity, and again to
track for next month in 2nd sheet i enter the same project name "xyz
CR" again under Activity.
This duplicate should not be entered in the summary sheet.

Hi Max

Save yourself a lot of work and just add an extra column to the Sheet titled
Month.
Enter all data onto a single sheet (in any order).
Apply an Autofilter to the header row, then select on Month to view any
individual Month (across all Activity) or select on
Activity to view that data across all months.

If only it was as simple as that.

well the sheet for months has lots of columns, i wanted only these 4 columns
to be out. the other columns have formulae in them to calculate variance,
burnt rate,schedule variance etc.. so was looking out to dothis
