How to pull data from a one Spreadsheet (that collects through a form) and display only some results (and sort by date)
Ok, first off, this forum community rules, and as I get versed in this stuff, I ensure you that it is my intention to give back and answer as many questions as I can.

How to pull data from a one Spreadsheet (that collects through a form) and display only some results (and sort by date)
Ok, first off, this forum community rules, and as I get versed in this stuff, I ensure you that it is my intention to give back and answer as many questions as I can.
My question:
So, I have Spreadsheet 1, collecting data through a form:
A | B | C | D
Submission Date | Writer Name | Content | Subject
11/9/12 | Bob | blah blah | Fiction
11/10/12 | Jim | blah blah | Science
11/11/12 | Kate | blah blah | Math
11/12/12 | Dan | blah blah | Science
* and again, this is all submitted by a form, so the newest content is imported automatically at the bottom
Then, I have Spreadsheet 2, which I want to import the data from Spreadsheet 1, but:
- I only want Science entries to populate, and we will call Spreadsheet 2 "Science" spreadsheet
- I then want the data, so both Jim's and Dan's entries to sort by newest to oldest on this new "Science" spreadsheet
- &, of course any new "Spreadsheet" entries with a "subject" of "science" in column D, I would like those to of course import automatically in the future to "Science Spreadsheet" and remain in "newest" to "oldest" format.
Actual Spreadsheets:
Spreadsheet 1: https://docs.google.com/ spreadsheet/ccc?key= 0AkaQB7eehUW0dE44V1V1QXNuVGFwU l9SWG9ZbXhuTlE#gid=0
Science Spreadsheet (spreadsheet 2): https://docs.google.com/ spreadsheet/ccc?key= 0AkaQB7eehUW0dEg5ZVE0WGRhNUhfO WJjSkRfdFNNaFE#gid=0
Thanks again!!!
