I am about ready to go cuckoo for cocoa puffs over this. I have tried EVERY workaround, formula etc. etc. This is what I am trying to do:
On worksheet 1 we have (lets say A1-A4) the values (A1)ABCD, (A2)EFGH, (A3)IJKL, (A4)MNOP. In column B we have (B1)1234, (B2)5678, (B3)9101112, (B4)13141516. Then in column C we have (C1)=concatenate(A1,B1), (C2) =concatenate(A2,B2) and you get the picture.
Now here is the fun part!
On worksheet 2 we have (A1)Microsoft, (A2)Excel, (A3)I, (A4)Hate and (A5)You. Now in A6 we have (A6)=sheet1!A1.
Basically in a nut shell I am trying to:
A) Filter out A1-A5 on the second sheet so only A6, A12, A18 etc show but to where I can drag the formula in (A6) down and get (A6)=sheet1!C1 [which results in ABCD1234], (A12)=sheet1!C2 [EFGH5678], (A18)=sheet1!C3 etc etc.
B) Not do the monkey work to accomplish (A) manually
C) Not spend a decade to write a god**** macro to format whats actually a macro itself! lol
As an aside the values on sheet 1 A1-A4+ and B1-B4+ change. I am essentially "templating" a VB script where certain values change (ie A1-A4 etc) but the rest of the code outside the filter on sheet 2 remains constant and unaffected by dragging the formula down (ie Microsoft excel I hate you remains unchanged and repeats in between said cells with the formulas). Just want to paste/drag drop into the VISIBLE cells only.
Any thoughts suggestions, feedback or pointers are welcome. Die Excel. Die >_<!!!
