    Linking data without using arrays/transpose

    I'm enclosing a workbook with same data for City 1 and City 2 for different companies. In sheet7, I want my required data layout structure. How do i link sheet7 with sheets City 1 and City 2 in a manner that any change in source sheets City 1 and City 2 reflect in sheet7. I don't want to use array formula to do that when i use transpose it just copy the data but not linking the data.

    It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do little - do what you can.

    Re: Linking data without using arrays/transpose

    Try the following formula in C4 (Sheet7)

    =INDEX('City 1'!$A$2:$K$6,MATCH(C$2,'City 1'!$A$2:$A$6,0),MATCH($B4,'City 1'!$A$2:$K$2,0))

    In D4:
    =INDEX('City 2'!$A$2:$K$6,MATCH(C$2,'City 2'!$A$2:$A$6,0),MATCH($B4,'City 2'!$A$2:$K$2,0))
    See the attached file.

    I'm not looking forward to any formula. I know i can get values by using lookups and index match functions. I'm just asking about linking sheets

    Re: Linking data without using arrays/transpose

    Your request does not make sense. Your thread title is about linking data, but then you talk about co[ying in and pasting: which is it?

    Re: Linking data without using arrays/transpose

    I have enclosed the sheet with sample data and required result in Cell range C4:F6 of Sheet7. It is being done by manually linking cells with source sheets City 1 and City 2. I just want to know that can it be done automatically without using formulas?

    Shukla - the OP has stated twice now, and very clearly, that he does not want a formula solution.

    Re: Linking data without using arrays/transpose

    As you asked for a non-formula solution, I don’t think anyone would have suggested that, but glad you have solved it.
