Why use a difficult to handle setup like this? It would be FAR easier to have one table with all details of all phones and then create a dynamic worksheet which nicely displays the details of one phone which you can select with a drop-down.

The reason is that we use the Workbooks for allot of different information too about the device, receiver etc...
It's set up in kind of a template way.
If there's no way to realistically do what I want though, I'll probably go with the way you proposed!
