    Generating a list on a separate Data sheet

    On microsoft excel, is there a way to generate a List on a separate sheet when an item is chosen on another?


    For example, on one sheet I have a list of 1000 items. My purpose is to choose items all over the list. So imagine I only need to chose 7 items on that list, think of the time spent scrolling up and down the list finding those 7 items. Increases the room for ever, and wastes a lot of time.

    So, is there an action where once I choose one of the items on the 1000 items list, it can generate just that item into another sheet. So once I have my 7 items, I can view the new sheet and JUST have my 7 items.

    Hello,

    what exactly do you want to do when you "choose" an item from the list?

    You can use filters to display only specific items of a list. Create a new column and enter a "yes" for each item you choose, then filter to show only the items with "yes" in that column.

    Or use Advanced Filter to create a list of these items on a new sheet.

    There are more possibilities, but it really depends on your requirements. Can you put in a bit more detail on what you are trying to achieve?

    cheers,
