    To-Do List: How to populate a sheet if drop-down criteria is met in multiple other sheets

    Hello everyone! I am new to this forum. I have a new job and I am trying to learn Excel - please bear with me as I am a little numerically challenged but am so keen to learn.

    I have created a spreadsheet (attached) to try to work as a basic To Do List.

    I would love to be able to populate the various sheets (Ops, HR etc) with tasks that pertain to that area of my job, and then have those I have marked as 'Urgent' populate into the first sheet.

    Is this even possible? I have spent an hour trying to work this out based on LOOKUP, and I just can't seem to get the hang of it. Sorry if this is a really basic thing I am missing.

    this routine will render your desired results...

    Assuming that you are new to VBA (visual basic macros) to run the routine :

    1. goto to the view tab
    2. select the macro
    3. click run


    Sub urgent()
    Set sh1 = Sheets("Urgent")
    r2 = 3
    For s = 2 To Sheets.Count
    r = 3
    Set sh2 = Sheets(s)
    While sh2.Cells(r, 2) <> ""
    If Trim(sh2.Cells(r, 3)) = "Urgent" Then
    sh1.Cells(r2, 2) = sh2.Name
    sh1.Cells(r2, 3) = sh2.Cells(r, 2)
    r2 = r2 + 1
    End If
    r = r + 1
    Wend
    Next s
    End Sub
