Hi all

I have a dilemma. Can't find a solution.

I have a row with 5 columns. A2 has a name, B2, id, and c2 d2 & e3 will have data. The last cells the data then looks up in another chart and find the name and input the data in the required cells. Then A2 name will change so data in C2,D2 & E2. That data like before would find that name in the chart and then input in to that names cells. Whilst all this happens the previous saved data is still in those cells.

I can put the data where it needs to go using VLOOKUP but as expected, when the data changes it disappears. I have tried to use the cell lock function but when I do, and the cell unlocks to put data in the previous data suddenly disappears.

The main workbook is already a macro enabled book, so I am open to VBA.

thank you in advance for your help.


regards

Ged
