Hi @BlueMoose,
In Excel, as far as I know, it is not possible to achieve the desired functionality using formulas alone. This task typically requires the use of macros or VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) coding.
To accomplish your goal of pulling entire rows from one sheet to another based on the presence of the word "TIRES" in column X, you will need to use VBA. Here is an example of a VBA macro that could help you achieve this:
1. Press `Alt + F11` to open the VBA editor in Excel.
2. Insert a new module by clicking "Insert" > "Module".
3. Paste the following VBA code into the module:
Sub MoveRowsToTireCases()
Dim sourceSheet As Worksheet
Dim targetSheet As Worksheet
Dim lastRow As Long
Dim i As Long
' Set the source and target sheets
Set sourceSheet = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Cases")
Set targetSheet = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Tire Cases")
' Find the last row in the source sheet
lastRow = sourceSheet.Cells(sourceSheet.Rows.Count, "X").End(xlUp).Row
' Loop through each row in the source sheet
For i = 2 To lastRow
' Check if cell in column X contains "TIRES"
If sourceSheet.Cells(i, "X").Value = "TIRES" Then
' Copy the entire row to the target sheet
sourceSheet.Rows(i).Copy Destination:=targetSheet.Cells(targetSheet.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1)
' Delete the row from the source sheet
sourceSheet.Rows(i).Delete
' Decrement the loop counter as the rows are shifting up
i = i - 1
' Update the last row value
lastRow = lastRow - 1
End If
Next i
End Sub
4. Modify the macro if your sheet names differ from "Cases" and "Tire Cases". Ensure that you keep the worksheet names within double quotes.
5. Close the VBA editor and return to your Excel workbook.
6. Press `Alt + F8` to open the "Macro" dialog box.
7. Select the "MoveRowsToTireCases" macro and click "Run"
By running this VBA macro, it should scan the "Cases" sheet, identify rows with "TIRES" in column X, and move those entire rows to the "Tire Cases" sheet. The rows shloud be copied to the bottom of the "Tire Cases" sheet and deleted from the "Cases" sheet. The macro will continue to work even as new rows with "TIRES" in column X are added to the "Cases" sheet.
Ensure that you save your workbook in a macro-enabled format (.xlsm) to retain the macro functionality.
I know that is not really a solution that you were lookin (hoping) for, but perhaps you can try it.
