Thanks Ranjan but I could not use file filter because; 1.Data is required at different place. 2.Filter is not effective when i have to use it more than 50 times in a day. 3.Data captured on the basis of the criteria is further required for calculation purpose.
Therefore, i intend to use *formula only & not macro.* Regards, C.G.Kumar On Mon, Apr 18, 2011 at 2:43 PM, rajan verma <rajanverma1...@gmail.com>wrote: > you should apply contain Filter.. i think > > > On Mon, Apr 18, 2011 at 2:21 PM, C.G.Kumar <kumar.bemlmum...@gmail.com>wrote: > >> Hello, >> I have a very tricky problem.
