Q: Need help with summary table

I have a spreadsheet that has about 40 different sheets with each one being a person that lists info about each one and if they participated in a given event.

 

Is there a way to create a summary table that spans all sheets and can show participation based on the event? Sort of like a portal in a database. My struggle is being able to drag the formula down to auto change sheets. I don't want to have to individually type an if then formula with offset to plug in the number for each field.

    You mention a portal on a database. I think you're on the right track. It's much easier to pull information together from one table than it is from dozens of tables. Why not keep your data all in one table database and "extract" information for a person from that table.

     

    If you could provide more details one what you are trying to do someone here will be able to give you more specific suggestions.
