I will do the best I can at explaining what I am doing. I am basically creating a decision tree through excel across multiple sheets.

"Sheet 1"!A:J is starting data with a formula in Column J
Sheet 2 copy rows from Sheet 1 where Column C=Yes ....... then there are additional "New" columns that need to be answered with a final criteria/formula in column J
=Filter('Sheet 1'!A:J,'Sheet1'J:J="Yes")
Up to this point the formulas all work. The problem in when I go to sheet 3

Sheet 3 copy rows from sheet 2 where column J=Yes
=Filter('Sheet 2'!A:Z,'Sheet1'Z:Z="Yes")

This results in an error because it can't "See" rows A-J from sheet 1 because they are a formula in sheet 2

Thoughts? Thanks in advance for your support and ideas.

Why are you filtering Sheet2 data based on Sheet1, when sheet2's data is already filtered using the same criteria?

only “passing” Sheet 1 data is copied to sheet 2. Then in sheet 2 that data is added to and then determined passing or not. If it is passing i want the passing row to go to sheet 3.

You need to use sheet2 data for the filter because the rows in aheet1 are pretty much guaranteed not to match up with sheet2
