I can appreciate people under time pressure wanting the job DONE first and 
maybe learning more after. So, yes, it makes perfect sense to delegate the task 
to others with expertise or ask for advice.
This forum may mean many things to many people but for me, it is a place to 
offer guidance and small amounts of help as a voluntary activity. Doing a major 
project for free is not necessarily why I am here. I prefer being hired and 
compensated, LOL!
But I share the frustration when someone dumps an ill-defined project on you 
without realizing what they handed you is an old application that cannot 
trivially be shifted into something new without serious effort and preparation.
The feedback here has included suggestions that we were shown only a part of 
the task needed and that it would be a good idea to not even try to keep your 
data in some EXCEL format if it was used heavily in ways perhaps never 
intended. Obviously, feeling urgency to do something quickly will make it hard 
to accept our suggestions, but nonetheless, a request here, as has been pointed 
out, should anticipate a python-oriented answer. Asking us here to make a set 
of macros for EXCEL to do this task would be inappropriate. Some are suggesting 
that a solution that keeps reading and writing to an EXCEL file for each 
transaction is also not necessarily a great design.
I think your answer makes me amend what I wrote. I grant you may be interested 
in learning but due to the press of time, you want a working set of software 
first.
Good luck with that.

move on without learning anything.”

This is due to the time factor
