I have a formula in a worksheet that pulls data from other sources on the
server to calculate and output the results in a table in the worksheet. The
data sources are updated weekly and once that happens, the worksheet
recalculates and overwrites the previous worksheet results. I want to
automatically transfer the previous results into another table as VALUES (not
formulas) so that my previous data is not over written when the data sources
are updated so i can do a week on week comparison. How can I do this transfer
my previous data automaitally as values into another table without manually
"copying" and pasting "as values" every week?
Can anyone help me out here?
 
Two options:

1) Record the steps you follow to copy & paste values as a macro, then call
that macro each week when you want to 'finalize' the calculations

2) Export the results each week to Access or MSDE, which would allow you to
store weeks & weeks of data and do comparisons between various periods (Yup,
this is manual, unless you want to do a little VBA programming)
