I have a normal table of data A1 through M50.
Row 1 contains column headings for the data.
Column A contains report names.

I want the user to enter a report name someplace (a particular cell or a data request menu) and have the related data (say A15:M15 sheet1) copied to cells A1:M1 on another sheet (sheet2) in the same workbook.

For example, by entering "Report C" in a given cell, I want the report c data (i.e., Report C, 56, 127, 20, 44, 8) to be placed in A1:M1 of sheet2.

Name Area Vol Code Section Pg
Report A 54 125 18 42 6
Report B 55 126 19 43 7
Report C 56 127 20 44 8
Report D 57 128 21 45 9
Report E 58 129 22 46 10
Report F 59 130 23 47 11
Report G 60 131 24 48 12

Is there a relatively simple way to do this?

Thanx

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.

Hi
In Cell A1 of sheet2 enter the search report no.
B1 = vlookup(a1,sheet1!A1:M50,2,false)
C1= vlookup(a1,sheet1!A1:M50,3,false)
continue till M1 and change third parameter 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, .... till 13

Entering Report Name in Shee2!A1

Sheet2!A15:
=If(CountIf(Sheet1$A1:$A15,$A1)>0,VlookUp($A15,Sheet1!$A1:$M50,Column(),False),If(Column()=1,"No Matched data",""))

then copy to M15
