Hi... Actually I'm still a bit confused... but a few of questions. 1) Do you do this manually at the moment? 2) How do you know which employee belongs to which supervisor? 3) As I read your last message then *all* the names must be yellow. Correct? 4) What are you doing with column B? What is in it? 5) Are you merging columns just to contain a name that won't fit into one cell?
