Whole Column Linking on a Primary Column?

rbrice

I am trying to dynamically link 2 columns from 1 sheet (Sheet A to Sheet B) to another.

I am currently using cell links from the whole column of Sheet A but the issue is that when new items get added to sheet A they don't pull over to Sheet B

The values are getting added to the top of Sheet A and I would rather not change this as there are formulas that depend on the hierarchy in case of a duplicate value.

Are there any solutions using just the core app?

Hi,

I hope you're well and safe!

I'd recommend using an INDEX/MATCH formula to connect the sheets.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic day!

Hello @rbrice

You can try creating a formula on Sheet B returning the value from Sheet A.

You can use INDEX/COLLECT or INDEX/MATCH.

Make sure you have a unique identifier that is available on both sheets.
