OK, this may not be possible but I figured if it is you members here would know the simplest way to do it.

I have roughly 250 employees. I have to create an evaluation feedback form for each employee. This form will contain has to contain the employees name and ID number.

I have a list of all employees with their ID numbers in a separate excel file.

I was curious if there was a way to do this using functions instead of hand entering each one and saving as...

This is the list:

and the eval form:
eval_form.jpg


as you can see on the eval form I am entering each persons name into cell C2 and ID number in H2.

Can anyone think of a faster way to manipulate the data?

Thanks again ahead of time!

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
in some cell which is outside the print area, enter 2. Let's say that's cell Z1.
in cell C2, enter =INDEX(Sheet1!B:B,Z1) and in cell H2 enter
=INDEX(Sheet1!A:A,Z1)
Print.
Then change the value in Z1 to 3, Print. then 4, print, etc.
(This assumes your data sheet is named Sheet1. Change if needed.
Obviously, VBA makes this even simpler:

Sub PrintAll250()
'With the form sheet active
For i=2 to 250
Range("Z1").value=i
activesheet.calculate
Activesheet.Printout
DoEvents
Next
End Sub
