Excel Programmers out there:

I have got a workbook with two sheets.

sheet1 gets data from sheet2 e.g

a2 in sheet1 will get data from shee2!a2

But sheet2 is filtered. What I want is that when I select a record randomly in sheet2,a2 in sheet1 should be populated automatically. Whatever a record selected in sheet2,a2 in sheet1 should be filled/copied,when selecting another record the previous record should be cleared and bring in the newly selected one.

Please help with the code.

Thanks

If I understand it clearly, this is what you need -->
Sheet1 should be populated always with new value; as soon as something is selected in sheet2.

You need to hook the worksheet's SelectionChange event.

Go into the VB editor (Alt+F11).

Double-Click the Sheet2 Object.

In the left drop-down box, select Worksheet. That should automatically add a SelectionChange event.

If not, use the right drop-down to select SelectionChange.

Then, in the code block, just write:

VB

Sheet1.Range("A2").Value = Target.Value
