Copying data onto another sheet, but omitting blanks.

My spreadsheet is designed to track whether our freelancers have accepted work. I want to track which work they have turned down. Each row represents a work offer, and I want to have a column which tracks which freelancers have turned it down. Is there a way to mirror this data on a separate sheet which will remove blanks (as not all work offers will necessarily be declined), so that I can then perform a VLOOKUP on the work offer code and have a sheet which tracks these declines where I can record why they turned it down?

So for example, say Column N is “Offered to and declined”, and of 10 work offers, 3 are declined. I want to enter the names of the people who declined the work offer into Column N, and have a separate sheet where I can view the Work offer code and the name of the person who declined it, without having the blanks from the work offers which were accepted with no declines. I can then have a column which explains why they turned it down, and track the reasons why people turn down the work offers.

I don't know if what I'm trying to do is even possible, but I'm having real trouble working out how to do this. Any help is appreciated, so thank you in advance.
 

Excel Facts

Fastest way to copy a worksheet?
Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
Use Autofilter to filter for non-blanks, select the whole range then Ctrl-G, special, visible cells, ok then copy and paste.

Sorry, I don't think I was clear enough - I don't want to copy and paste it every time. I want it so that when I enter a decline on my main spreadsheet, the data automatically enters on the separate sheet that so-and-so declined this work. So I want to mirror the contents of Column N onto another worksheet and have it automatically filter out the blanks. Does that make sense?

So if it is a copy when you enter Decline where does the ommitting/filtering out the blanks come into it?
