Generate Pricelist from Product list in Excel 2003

B

Hello, I don't know if this belongs here, or in the functions or programming
sections, so I'll start here. My company produces Excel pricelists for every
product we sell. The pricelists group the products by class, and include
prices for 3 different currencies in 4 different organizations.

The product list looks like this:
CLASS SKU PRODUCT UPC Org1 Org2 Org3 Org4
Class1 SKU1 Prod1 UPC1 P1 P2 P3 P4
Class1 SKU2 Prod2 UPC1 P1 P2 P3 P4
Class2 SKU3 Prod3 UPC3 P1 P2 P3 P4 etc.

Price list looks like this:
Class1
SKU1 Prod1 UPC1 P1 P2 P3 P4
SKU2 Prod2 UPC2 P1 P2 P3 P4
Class2
SKU3 Prod3 UPC3 P1 P2 P3 P4 etc.

Currently I have to set up the Class headers (which can change), then copy
and paste the rows for the products under the headers. If a product gets
added or dropped in the product list, I have manually add or delete the rows
in the pricelist. We have 10 pricelists, 5 with 10 tabs, 5 with 1 tab, for
the various currencies we deal with. This is a very manual, labor intensive
process, and prone to error.

I want to automate the process, but, unfortunately, MS Access is not a
possibility. My question: is there a way, using formulas or vb, to extract
the classes as headers, and the products as data in the format above. I'm
basically taking the left column of the product list and using it to create
group headers on the pricelist. I would like the pricelist to automatically
adjust to any changes in the product list.

A long post, I know, but any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Bernie
