Hello

Go to view, toolbars and view the vissual basic toolbar. Click the small blue circle to record a macro. Highlight the cells/columns you want, right click and select copy, open the spreadsheet and paste in the cells. Then click the blue square to stop the macro running. Your macro is now recorded. You can then create a button and assign the macro to it on the original spreadsheet. Go to view>>toolbars>>Forms to show the forms toolbar. Select the button on the toolbar and draw a button on the page. It will automatically have a popup which lets you assign the macro you just created. Now when you click the button it will automatically copy the cells to the other sheet. You can right click the button and change the text on it to read something like 'copy records'

thanks
Rich
