Excel - IF Function Problem - Expert Solution

Question description:
This user has given permission to use the problem statement for this blog.

I have many clients. For each client i have a spreadsheet with a to-do list. In this list you can choose if a question is answered or if they stil need help by choosing yes/busy/finished. Is there a possibility to have that link to somewhere where i can see what questions need stil need to be answered or what tasks still need to be done for all clients in a single sheet?
