Good Afternoon,
I posted a similar query last month and got a great response, I now have to expand upon the idea.
Basically, I have a stock sheet and every time a product is created the stock for it must be depleted manually a part at a time. We have almost 8000 parts and each product can consist of up to 500 different items.
I have created a monthly stock sheet with a column for each day of the month OR product created:
<colgroup><col width="64" style="width: 48pt;" span="2">
<col width="141" style="width: 106pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 5006;">
<col width="64" style="width: 48pt;" span="5">
<tbody>

What I think I would like to be able to do is when a material list is dropped into a sheet (Say the 'work order' sheet), at the top of each column have a button which runs a macro which will look up to that sheet for the values (which will have the part number in common) and drop the values into that particular column then copy/paste them as values.
There may be an easier way to do this, including an individual sheet for each product (and I can simply do a sumif) but this has 2 problems:
1. The file will be massive - this is already a problem with the current stock file which has to be repaired on average once a month
2. The other people using it are not as familiar with Excel as me (and I am far/far from an expert) so asking them to enter formula without causing an error somewhere is far from ideal.
If anyone has any ideas/examples of something that already exists that fits this purpose - I would be very greatful.
Thanks in advance,
Vic2207
