    Hello XPFTP,

    start with a simple Excel table.
    In the first row put labels like Date, Code, Description, whatever you want to track
    In the next rows put the content.

    Then think about what you would like to "recall" in a different part of the workbook. Come up with a layout and mock up your expected results.

    Post this workbook up here.

    Then we can help further.

    cheers

    Sorry, but I don't understand what you're saying. Can you put it into English? With some punctuation, maybe?

    Please attach a file with a small data sample that represents your problem. There's no need for a half MB file attachment. I'm sure you can get this down to below 100 KB.

    Lack of response may be due to lack of description of the problem and too big a file attachment. All people here are volunteers and pay for downloading your sample. Help us help you. Make it easy for us to understand your problem. Make your files as small as possible. Then you'll attract more members to help you.
