    ALLENCANADA The Data Drop wasn't so  bad after all, although I don't like the merged cells.

     

    Since you are an MS365 subscriber and intend to also use this on the web, I believe you can get rid of the indexing sheet altogether and make use of modern dynamic array functions, some named ranges  and a filter on the Filled Orders sheet. Please see attached and let me know if you can work with this.

    Note that I changed the order of the columns in the Filled Order sheet to make it easier. One single formula in B2 now fills the table dynamically.

    =FILTER(FILTER(dataDrop,oredrType="N1:Sold Order"),selected)

    And a simple XLOOKUP fills in the Client name.

    On top of that, the file size reduced from 5.6MB to 36KB.

     

    Hopefully, this will "unhurt" your brain. Have a good week-end!
