Hello,

This question may of been asked many times before and I have tried to look for resolutions, but non of the formulaes seem to work.

I'm using Office 365 on a Samsung tablet.

I'm trying to create a file where when I carry out a new project I will duplicate a worksheet, amend the figures, but I want the total figure to show on my summary page.

So for example:
I have a master sheet named 'Summary' and then each worksheet will be named P1, P2, etc and when I add a work sheet I will go up to the next number.

On the summary page I will have P1, P2, P3 listed etc. For the purpose of P1, I want the figure from cell F2 to show on the summary page C4, and then for P3 I want F2 to show on cell C5.

Is there a way to do this, because I happened to come across a post which said 365 has stopped the indirect function for this.

I would like this to auto-populate for new entries of worksheets I add, so eventually P100 will automatically add to the summary page once the worksheet has been created.

Any help will be high appreciated.

Thank you.
 

Excel Facts

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
In which column of the Summary sheet will you have the P1, P2, P3...Pn sheets listed? Is the objective to put the F2 value of each P# sheet into column C of the summary sheet on the corresponding row for each P# sheet?
This assumes column A as the column for the P# sheets. it would post the value to the summary sheet each time the user exits a P# Sheet. Goes into the ThisWorkbook code module.

VBA Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetDeactivate(ByVal Sh As Object)
Sheets("Summary").Range("A:A").Find(Sh.Name, , xlValues, xlWhole).Offset(, 2) = Sh.Range("F2").Value
End Sub

This would work better.

VBA Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetDeactivate(ByVal Sh As Object)
On Error Resume Next
Sheets("Summary").Range("A:A").Find(Sh.Name, , xlValues, xlWhole).Offset(, 2) = Sh.Range("F2").Value
On Error GoTo 0
Ert.Clear
End Sub

Thank you for responding so quickly. P1 would be in column B4.

The code below is Workbook event code which should be copied to the ThisWorkbook code module. The code is activated when a worksheet is deactivate by switching to a different sheet or closing the file. When the sheet is deactivated, the procedure will look in the Summary sheet, column B for the sheet name (P#) and if found will then post the value of cell F2 of the P# sheet to the corresponding cell in column C of the Summary sheet.

VBA Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetDeactivate(ByVal Sh As Object)
On Error Resume Next
Sheets("Summary").Range("B:B").Find(Sh.Name, , xlValues, xlWhole).Offset(, 1) = Sh.Range("F2").Value
On Error GoTo 0
Ert.Clear
End Sub

Thank you.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

I have just managed to get onto a computer to try this out, unfortunately I have an error of 424 runtime.
