    Lookup across sheets

    Guys,

    Big problem for me ........hopefully small problem for you....

    I have numbers displayed in a column on one worksheet and I want to display them in a row on another worksheet.

    The only way I have been able to do it is to individually set up each cell which is very time consuming. I've entered a few cells and then tried dragging the sequence but it doesn't work properly. As i drag across the row of the 1st sheet ( where I want to display the info ) the cell references increment across the row from the 2nd sheet ( which contains the info I want in columns ) rather than down the column.

    Does this make sense ?

    Can anyone help ?

    Cheers Big Ears

    Eeeee

    Thanx for reply.

    I tried what you suggest but it didnt do exactly what I want. Looks like I only gave you part of the story for the original problem... I forgot to mention that the info in columns is not complete ie it gets updated daily, so the column size increases by 1 value per day as time goes on. Your suggestion works as a snapshot of that moment but when I add a value tomorrow it doesn't update the row.

    Any suggestion would be welcome

    You can use a formula/setup like this:

    Assume the numbers are in column A in Sheet1, and you want them in Row 1, sheet2. This would be the formula:

    =IF(COUNT(Sheet1!$A:$A)<COLUMN(),"",INDEX(Sheet1!$A:$A,COLUMN()))

    Fill that across as far as necessary.. Let me know if that works.

    EDIT TO ADD: Enter that formula into sheet2, cell A1, and fill across

    Enter this formula into cell F25 on sheet 2, fill across, and let me know if it works.

    =IF(COUNT(Sheet1!$M$22:$M$200)<COLUMN()-5,"",INDEX(Sheet1!$M$22:$M$200,COLUMN()-5))
