I am going around in circles!!! Please help!!

I have a sheet called "FTBJOB2" containing a list of job numbers in column B and the "job status" in column D.

With each new job a new sheet is created from a template. This sheet is named with the job number from the list in column B of sheet "FTBJOB2"

Contained in each job's sheet is the job status contained in cell "Y2"

What I need is a code that, each time the job status in the job sheet (in "Y2") is changed, that job status change is reflected in column D of "FTBJOB2" in the row containing the job number

I brain is telling me that the code has to;
1. Search column B of "FTBJOB2"
2. Find the ROW with the sheet name (of the job sheet)
3. Copy cell "Y2" from the job sheet and paste it in column D of the row containing the job sheet name in column B

I have tried a lot of different things and I have had no success

My brain is also saying this has to happen in a worksheet change event.

I have reached the limits of my brain and need someone who is more capable to assist me

pleeeeeease and

Thank you

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
Oh I almost forgot. The sheets are all protected. Not with a password, just to prevent people inadvertently changing things


Thanks wonderful people
