I wrote a line of commands in VB Editor for data that I enter i
"sheet1" to appear in "sheet2" in the exact order I want.


The Problem:

I want these commands to continue repeating as I continue to add dat
entries to "sheet1"

What am I missing? This appears so simple but I can't write a comman
line that will work.

Example:

Sub Duplicate1()
Range("M2").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Entry!R[-0]C"
Range("M3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Entry!R[-1]C"
Range("M4").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Entry!R[-2]C"
Range("M5").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Entry!R[-3]C"
Range("M5").Select

Range("N2").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "dd-mmm-yy"
ActiveCell = "=Entry!N2"
Range("N3").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "dd-mmm-yy"
ActiveCell = "=Entry!N2"
Range("N4").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "dd-mmm-yy"
ActiveCell = "=Entry!O2"
Range("N5").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "dd-mmm-yy"
ActiveCell = "=Entry!O2"
Range("N5").Select

End


I want "sheet2" to continue in this format as I enter in rows of dat
on "sheet1"

I would appreciate any tips or advice.

Hi,
do you mean that every time you enter something into sheet1 you want it to
appear in sheet2 too?

Exactly,

That is exactly what I thought the code I wrote was going t
accomplish.

And since i have altered how I want the data to appear in sheet2 it i
not a simple linking function between sheets.

Any advice?

I tried sheet(array but that did not work. I will keep on trying.
appreciate the tips.

Hi Mark,

I truely appreciate your input.

As for the the first question, the references are correct, it may not
appear that way at first glance becasue I am having the data enter into
a different order on my second sheet.

I am going to work with the "Worksheet_SelectionChange" procedure you
mention. The code I worte is very basic as this is my first attemtp at
VB after reading a couple of books and pouring over forums. We shall
see what transpires.
