[mso] Excel question for a formula

Good Afternoon/Morning Group,

I was wondering if I could get a little help with a formula for an Excel sheet 
trying to put together for one of our labs.

Technologist entering data into 1 of 2 worksheets, formulas for those work fine.

In the 3rd sheet we would like to compile the results from the 1 sheet that was 
worked with but we won't know up front which sheet is going to be worked with 
and I would like to make a template that everyone could use and I'll just make 
it "read only" so no one can copy over it with their data already in it.

The formula I wrote will only "pull" information from 1 sheet.  What I would 
like it a formula that will look at multiple worksheets, determine which of 
those worksheets actually have data in them and "dump" the results of the cells 
that have something in them to particular cells in the "collation" worksheet.

I was thinking what I need is an IF statement that also has OR embedded in it.

If anyone would like to see the workbook that we were compiling for our 
molecular diagnostics lab for bone marrow transplant patients I would be happy 
to send it if you think it would make it easier.

Thanks,
