Hi,

Here is what I would like to do. Can anyone help me?

On sheet1 of my Excel file, I have a column called "Title". What I would like to do is punch in a formula on sheet4 that will copy the entire contents of the column from sheet1 and paste it on sheet4.

I thought I should use the Lookup routine, but I am not sure if that is the right one, and I don't know how to properly use it.

For reference, I'm using Excel XP. Thanks.

in Sheet4 type in
=Sheet1!A1

if your data is in column A and copy it down as far the data should extend. There are different keystrokes that you could use etc., but in the end it's the same task you are performing.

 
yes, but I have something like 100 cells in this column. Will I need to edit this forumula for each cell, so it would look something like this...

=Sheet1!A1
=Sheet1!A2
=Sheet1!A3
=Sheet1!A4


and so on. Or, could I just use a wizard that will save me a whole bunch of time. Thanks.

I see, if I copy and paste this formula, it will alter it for me. Now, another question...

In each cell on the new sheet that has no corresponding data from the first sheet, a "0" is printed. How can I alter the formula so that it will not put in this number? Thanks.

Try... =IF(ISBLANK(Sheet1!A7),"",(Sheet1!A7))
 
...should have said Sheet1!A1.....not to be confusing....
