I’m doing some org charts (see figure 1 below), but there’s 1000’s of rows and I don’t want fill in the ‘Reports To’ column (K) manually…too time consuming.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Is there any way to make a formula which references the line manager of any given employee? As an example, Cell K9 should reference cell F6.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Cheers,<o:p></o:p>
