Macro's for figuring Price Lists?!?
I'm working on price books for the company I work for. The vendors just
email us the suggested retail price in excel format. I have to put in a formula to come up with "Our Cost" and a formula for "Our Retail". The problem is - The "Suggested Retail" is in a different column on each worksheet. For example on one worksheet the "Suggested Retail" is in column "G", and on the next worksheet it is in column "H". Can a macro be created and automatically look for the suggested retail price column rather than specifying column "G" as the suggested retail column. No macro's have been created yet in this workbook. If this is too confusing, I can even email the price list to show what I mean. I know excel is very capable of doing this, I am open to ANY and ALL suggestions. Thanks!!!!!! |

I've never used this myself, so I can't vouch for how to do it specifically,
but it sounds like you might want to try the "Consolidate" function (in the Data menu). You can consolidate by category, which means you'd be able to grab the correct data no matter what column it was in. (My reference for this is a handy dandy "Running Microsoft Excel 2000" by Dodge and Stinson.) Sorry I'm not more help! JenniM "MonteNOS" wrote: I'm working on price books for the company I work for.
