Hi,

I have two excel sheets, sheet A is the master data sheetwhich has all my resource data,like, employee number,first name, last namedesignation etc., and in the other sheet i will have to input data manually. Here, the common data in the both sheets is the Employee number.

However, once i enter the employee number in my sheet B, i need the fields like designation etc to get updated automatically from the sheet A. vlookup is not working, because I periodically enter the employee number in the sheet B and not as a bulk. My final question is , if I enter the employee number in the sheet B , can it pick all the details from the sheet A and fill my columns??

Kindly help

Regards,

Nik
