I would suggest a PivotTable
Thank you for this. I see how it helps with the first part of what I'm trying to do. However I don't see how it helps me accomplish the second part. Any advice?

hi there!
i need help figuring out how best to accomplish a little project i'm working on in excel.
i've attached my excel file here and will do my best to explain what i need help with below.
- i have 5 sheets with all data input into Total Schedule, which feeds into 'Breakdown By Day'
- i want to have the info in 'Breakdown By Day' generate rows and auto-populate with info in each of the 'Sign Up Sheets', per specific position/shift (RN, PCA, and HUC / Day & Night)
- i don't know how to phrase exactly what i'm looking for, but i'll try my best and also include a 'Mock Up' sheet in the workbook of what i'm trying to do, too...
- i want to generate an amount of rows (as determined by E Column in 'BBD' sheet), that are auto filled with data from B, C, & D columns (on 'BBD' sheet)
- so if i need 5 RNs for Day Shift on 3/15, the formula/macro will create 5 rows in 'Sign Up Sheet Day RN' that have data filled in like [3/15 | Day | 7A-7P] and some additional formatting that i'll add on the sheet later.
- you can see the 'Mock Up' sheet to see what i'm hoping to do
please let me know if i can clarify anything. i'm not an expert in excel obviously, so i'm grateful for any help!!
