    Linking Cells on different worksheets

    I receive pricelist every month which list 1000's of part numbers and costs. I want to be able to paste this pricelist into Worksheet 1 and create a short list (Master sheet) of part numbers and prices, that I use on a regular basis - into worksheet 2.

    The problem I have is that the part numbers on the pricelist may change cell position, due to products being added /removed.

    I there anyway whereby, I can list the common part numbers I use, into worksheet 2 and with the same part number listed (in whatever cell) within Worksheet 1 have Excel find that same part number and associated pricing.

    The headings in the columns are always the same, its just the rows that change.

    Any questions, please come back to me.

    Many thanks

    Stevie

    INDEX / MATCH or VLOOKUP will do this for you.

    Re: Linking Cells on different worksheets

    Thanks Danerida,

    Being a novice, could I have example formulae for this?

    example scenario

    I have my list of common part numbers and part costs - in Worksheet 2 (these will be in fixed cell locations on this worksheet)
    If in Worksheet 1, I paste the monthly published price list from the supplier, where Part Number 'VCS5-ENT-C123' is in Cell 'C1' and the associated price for this e.g.'£300.00' in Cell 'C5'; what formula would I use to ensure that when'VCS5-ENT-C123' along with the price (which will always be in the same relative position to the part number) changes row number, that the common part numbers and part cost in worksheet 2 will change with it?

    Cheers

    Re: Linking Cells on different worksheets

    There are a couple of ways to achieve this. Will your data have multiple prices for each part? What price would you return in that instance?
    Assuming that your parts are always the same price, I will give you two options:

    You can copy all of these formulas down to populate your table.
