Linking an Entire Column

2JZGTE

Hi,

I have two sheets on Smartsheets. SheetA would be my source, SheetB is empty. I would like to link the entire column (1st column) from SheetA to automatically be posted on SheetB whenever it is updated or a new row is added. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks!

Paul Newcome

Have you looked into creating a report?

Hi @2JZGTE

I hope you're well and safe!

To add to Paul's excellent advice/answer.

You could use cross-sheet formulas combined with either a VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH structure to connect the sheets, and when you update the source sheet, it will reflect on the destination sheet.

To connect them row by row, you'd use an Autonumber Column in the Source sheet and add a so-called helper column to manually add the row id on as many rows as you think you need in the Destination sheet.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
