    hyperlink or formula

    I have a spreadsheet that requires me to see the status of every employee. What I want to do is just to type their employee number and all information and status regarding with this employee should appear next to the number i type. My database is on other sheet while I want to work on the other sheet. A formula or hyperlink can do this job? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

    Re: hyperlink or formula

    I made a change which allows the formula to be copied, but oly if the columns on your employees sheet are in the same order as the Status sheet!

    the formula is

    =IF(INDEX(' Employees'!$A$5:$G$65000,MATCH($B7,EmployeeNumber,0),COLUMN())<>"",INDEX(' Employees'!$A$5:$G$65000,MATCH($B7,EmployeeNumber,0),COLUMN()),"")

    If you want to change it to refer to columns out of order change both column() in red to the number of the column you want A=1 etc!

    Hope this helps

    Regards

    Darren

    I need a formula that would say if any values in column A of sheet1 are found within column C of sheet 2, then give me the value for sheet2 column F for that record that is found in sheet 2 column C.
