Hello,
So i have an issue that is quite complex. The status quo is as follows:
My customer will send me raw data as follows (call it table A):

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 279pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=372 border=0><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 113pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 5485" width=150><COL style="WIDTH: 56pt;

I need to add column D to table A that will take the first work order (wo)going from left to right in table B for the part number in column A of table A which is WO06407. then assign it to order number CF30510000-002 on row 1. And then i want to drag the box down to have the second work order align with the second customer open order in table A. Now the harder part comes in, the data in table A is renewed every couple days and is replaced. I want the equations to recalculate and thus align itself with the changing customer demands in table A (the first part going to be made will satisfy the first customer demand). is there any one who can help me? I send my devoted appreciation in advance to those who have spent their time on my issue. Thank you
