I'm trying to write a VBA code to copy "Non-Blank" cells from one file to another. This code selects the last Non Blank row, but for the column it's copying A4 to AU. I'd like to copy columns A4 to LastcolumnNotblank and also last row. So basically copy A4 to (LastColumn)(LastRow)Not Blank
Would be really grateful if someone can help by editing the below code. Many thanks.
Sub Export_Template()
'' TPD
File_name = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(InitialFileName:="Engineering TPD", FileFilter:="Excel Files (*.xlsx), *.xlsx")
If File_name <> False Then
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
LastRow = ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 4 To LastRow
If Left(ActiveSheet.Range("A" & i).Value, 1) <> "" Then lastactiverow = i
Next i
'MsgBox (lastactiverow)
ActiveSheet.Range("A4:AU" & lastactiverow).Select
Selection.Copy
Set NewBook = Workbooks.Add
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=File_name, FileFormat:=51
ActiveWorkbook.Close (False)
End If
End Sub
The code below will preserve your ActiveSheet range and use SaveAs to save to a new workbook with your specific name, without all the extra crap. It deletes all the sheets except for the ActivSheet, and deletes the first three rows, then using SaveAs to save to ThisWorkbook.Path. Your macro enabled workbook will not be changed.
I actually don't like to use ActiveSheet due to the obvious problems, but since you were using it i kept it. I would suggest you use the name of the worksheet.
Sub SaveActiveSheetRangeAsNewWorkbook()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
With ThisWorkbook
For Each ws In Application.ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
If ws.Name <> ActiveSheet.Name Then
ws.Delete
End If
Next
.Sheets(1).Range("A1:A3").EntireRow.Delete
.SaveAs Filename:="Engineering TPD", FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook
End With
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
I'm assuming that Col A is a good indicator of where to find your last used row
Also assuming that Row 1 is a good indicator of where to find your last used column
You need to change Sheet1 on 3rd line of code to the name of your sheet that has the data to be copied
You need to declare variables (Use Option Explicit)
Avoid .Select and .Selection at all costs (none are found in below solution)
You did not re-enable ScreenUpdating and DisplayAlerts
This is tested and works A-OK
Option Explicit
Sub Export_Template()
Dim ws As Worksheet: Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
Dim NewBook As Workbook
Dim LRow As Long, LCol As Long
Dim FileName
FileName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(InitialFileName:="Engineering TPD", FileFilter:="Excel Files (*.xlsx), *.xlsx")
If FileName <> False Then
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Set NewBook = Workbooks.Add
LRow = ws.Range("A" & ws.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
LCol = ws.Cells(1, ws.Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
ws.Range(ws.Cells(4, 1), ws.Cells(LRow, LCol)).Copy
NewBook.Sheets(1).Range("A1").PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
NewBook.SaveAs FileName:=FileName, FileFormat:=51
NewBook.Close False

I have a master workbook that I have that already looks through all the files in a folder. However, one of the tabs needs to look through all the tabs in a different selected workbook "Data". The workbook has roughly 30 worksheets, and I need to loop through each worksheet except "Investments" and "Funds". If it makes it easier these are the first two tabs in the workbook. I then need to copy cell F9 in each worksheet, paste it into a different workbook "Master" cell "C4", go back to the same worksheet in the "data" workbook and copy range "C16:C136" and paste that into cell "E4" of the "master" workbook. Then it would need to loop to the next worksheet in the "data" workbook and continue the loop. For each new worksheet, I need it to paste one row lower in the "master" file. i.e. the second worksheet would paste in "C5" and "E5".
If it makes it easier I can split this up into two macros. And Just paste all the data from the worksheets into a new blank sheet in the data work book and then I can have another one to copy all of that over into the "master" workbook once done.
Thanks in Advance

Please show us your first attempt. Feel free to put in comments like
' I need this to do XXXX here, but I don't know how
Here are a some hints:
To loop through all sheets in a workbook, use:
For each aSheet in MyWorkbook.Sheets
To skip some specific sheets, say:
If aSheet.Name <> "Investments" And aSheet.Name <> "Funds"
To copy from aSheet to MasterSheet, start by setting the initial destinations:
set rSource = aSheet.range("F9")
set rDestin = MasterSheet.range("C4")
Then in your loop you do the copy:
rDestin.Value = rSource.Value
...and set up the next set of locations
set rSource = rSource.offset(1,0)
set rDestin = rDestin.offset(1,0)
Does that help?
EDIT: Briefly looking at your version, I think this part won't work:
If ws.Name <> "Funds" And ws.Name <> "Investments" Then
Next ws
Don't you want to delete that last line?
EDIT 2: You use this a lot:
wb.Worksheets.<something>
But that does not refer to a specific worksheet. You want to use "ws", like this:
ws.Range("F9")
BIG EDIT:
Step through this version carefully and see how it works:

I recently asked a question and received a great answer on this site, but I am now running into a different problem. The code below works well for running through each workbook in a folder, copying a sheet's contents, and pasting those contents into a master workbook exactly how I would like:
Sub ConslidateWorkbooks()
'Code to pull sheets from multiple Excel files in one file directory
'into master "Consolidation" sheet.
Dim FolderPath As String
Dim Filename As String
Dim Sheet As Worksheet
Dim wbName As String
With ActiveSheet
Range("A1").Activate
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
FolderPath = ActiveWorkbook.Path & "\"
Filename = Dir(FolderPath & "*.xls*")
wbName = ActiveWorkbook.Name
Do While Filename <> ""
If Filename <> wbName Then
Workbooks.Open Filename:=FolderPath & Filename, ReadOnly:=True
For Each Sheet In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
copyOrRefreshSheet ThisWorkbook, Sheet
Next Sheet
Workbooks(Filename).Saved = True
Workbooks(Filename).Close
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Activate
End If
Filename = Dir()
Loop
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Sub copyOrRefreshSheet(destWb As Workbook, sourceWs As Worksheet)
Dim ws As Worksheet
On Error Resume Next
Set ws = destWb.Worksheets(sourceWs.Name)
On Error GoTo 0
If ws Is Nothing Then
sourceWs.Copy After:=destWb.Worksheets(destWb.Worksheets.Count)
Else
ws.Unprotect Password:="abc123"
ws.Cells.ClearContents
sourceWs.UsedRange.Copy
ws.Range(sourceWs.UsedRange.Address).PasteSpecial (xlPasteAll)
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
End Sub
The problem I am having now: After the paste is completed, each sheet in the master workbook has all of its cells selected, as though I Ctrl+A'd the entire sheet. I would like to get rid of this. It is a small task which I tried to accomplish in the line ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Activate within the Do While .. loop, but it has not worked for me.
EDIT:
I found a solution that works in this case. I am not sure why this was necessary, because the comments and answers in this thread seem like they should work, but they did not. I call this sub before I turn screenupdating to True in the main sub:
Sub selectA1()
Worksheets(1).Activate
Dim Sheet As Worksheet
For Each Sheet In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
Sheet.Activate
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 1
ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn = 1
Sheet.Range("A1").Select
Next Sheet
Worksheets(1).Activate
End Sub
I realize this is more complicated than it should be, but it works for my purposes.
In your copy sub, add in another code in the loop that will select a cell which should deactivate the total used range selection and just select the coded range.
Sub copyOrRefreshSheet(destWb As Workbook, sourceWs As Worksheet)
Dim ws As Worksheet
On Error Resume Next
Set ws = destWb.Worksheets(sourceWs.Name)
On Error GoTo 0
If ws Is Nothing Then
sourceWs.Copy After:=destWb.Worksheets(destWb.Worksheets.Count)
Else
ws.Unprotect Password:="abc123"
ws.Cells.ClearContents
sourceWs.UsedRange.Copy
ws.Range(sourceWs.UsedRange.Address).PasteSpecial (xlPasteAll)
ws.range("A1").select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
End Sub
I added ws.range("A1").select which should do as I described above.
Is there a way to merge the data in multiple excel spreadsheets together by column?
I have 200 spreadsheets, each with text in the first 100 columns (A-CV).
I would like to merge all the "A" columns from these 200 documents together, all the "B" columns together, all the "C" columns together, and so on.
As for the merging, no particular order is required. As long as the cells themselves don't get merged.
Due to the large amount of text the code would be merging, it would be more practical to be able to merge one column at a time across all spreadsheets into a unique file, then repeat that with all other columns (A-CV), instead of attempting to merge all the columns (from all spreadsheets) together into one single file.
I found a code that merges columns, but it's not quite what I need. Is there a way to modify this code to help with what I described above?
Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'
Dim cell As Range
For i = 1 To 50
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
If Cells(1, i).Value = "Cat 2" Then
Columns(i).Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If
If Cells(1, i).Value = "Cat 6" Then
Columns(i).Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range("B1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If
If Cells(1, i).Value = "Cat 4" Then
Columns(i).Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range("C1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If
Next i
End Sub
If you need more information, please let me know. And if I need to rename the documents a certain way to help with the process, I'm definitely willing to do that.
The merged data can be sent to a spreadsheet, word document, or notepad. I'm fine with any of these options.
UPDATE: This is the new code with modifications. The issues I am having are in the comment below.

While there are many ways to do what you want, I would recommend looking into Power Query. It gives you a great GUI to work with to accomplish this. Depending on your version of excel it is either a free add-on or part of the shipped product(for new versions of office).
You do not need to know how to code to use this, you just need to understand the concepts.
While its not exactly the answer you are after i have successfully taught several people at my work place how to use this application that would have previously been reliant on me or someone else with VBA skills.

This macro will go through all the files in the folder and copy the sheet1 range and paste it in the active workbook sheet1. if you have headers and dont want them to repeat you can copy the header to the sheet1 of activeworkbook then copy range from (A2:CV &lr1).
I have the following code in a macro in my personal book, and it works perfectly.
I'm trying to copy it into the actual wb it's running from so I can send it around for others to use, and it's breaking at the commented line "XXXXXX". The selected wb is being opened fine, but none of the subsequent editing occurs to that book. All of the following code (deletion of columns, etc) that should be happening to the opened workbook only happens to the wb running the macro, which is...sub-optimal.
I don't know why! Any thoughts welcomed.
Thank you

I took a bit of a closer look at your code. I think you are saying that you want to run code from macros.xlsm (or something like that), and have it operate on mydata.xlsx (or some such). Therefore, in your macro, ThisWorkbook will refer to macros.xlsm (should you need to refer to that).
After you have done Set wb = Workbooks.Open(fNameAndPath) to open mydata.xlsx, only and always refer to wb and wb.Sheets("whatever") when you are talking about mydata.xlsx.
Don't use Columns, Rows, Sheets, or Cells without a sheet reference in front of them
Don't use ActiveWorkbook/ActiveWorksheet at all.
Instead of ActiveCell, use a named range, e.g., as in this answer to the question BruceWayne noted.
That should take care of it!
<soapbox>And, in general, please be careful of your indentation and use longer variable names — both will help you avoid bugs as you work on this code.</soapbox>
This should be dead simple but i'm throwing a total blank so far, i've googled around and not found an answer either.
I'm creating a new workbook using VBA and i'd like to save that workbook so that it opens on the last row containing data when the user opens it. This is what i have so far:-
With ActiveWorkbook
'Added a last row selection so the sheet will open at the bottom of the page - Ash 07/04/14
LastRow = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Select
Rows(ActiveCell.Row).Activate
.SaveAs str_DestFolder & str_File, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook, AccessMode:=xlShared
.Close
End With
Somehow this is failing me, any help would be much appreciated!
You could add the following line, after activating your last row:
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = ActiveCell.Row
So your full code would be
With ActiveWorkbook
LastRow = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Select
Rows(ActiveCell.Row).Activate
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = ActiveCell.Row
.SaveAs str_DestFolder & str_File, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook, AccessMode:=xlShared
.Close
End With
Several suggestions
Code that should be run to set the workbook up for the next open should be run in the BeforeSave or Open Events.
best to run the code to work on a specific sheet automatically (the first sheet in the sample below) rather than rely on it being active.
Excell 2007 and onwards have 1 million rows, so either use Cells(Row.Count,"A").End(xlup) or Find rather than Range("A65536").End(xlup)`.
code for the ThisWorkbook module (runs automatically on save)
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Sheets(1)
Dim rng1 As Range
Set rng1 = ws.Columns("A:A").Find("*", ws.[a1], xlValues, , xlByRows, xlPrevious)
Application.Goto rng1
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = rng1.Row
End Sub
LastRow = Wb.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Wb.Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(LastRow, 1).Select
With Wb
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
.SaveAs Filename:="YourFilePath", AccessMode:=xlShared
.Close
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
End With
Set Wb = Nothing
Try this...
