Hi there I am trying to merge two sheets. I'd need to copy a range from one column like to the next empty cell of a column on another sheet. I've tried around five methods I've found on the internet and none of them worked so far, even though it seems like it should be an easy operation. I have the following code that gives
Copy method of Range class failed
Any help would be appreciated.
Sub gMerge()
Dim ssaw As Worksheet
Dim trckr As Worksheet
Set ssaw = Sheets("SSAW_DATA")
Set trckr = Sheets("SQL_DATA_FEED")
'ssaw.Range("G2", Selection.end(xlDown)).Copy Destination:=ssaw.Range("H2")
ssaw.Range("C2", Selection.end(xlDown)).Copy Destination:=trckr.Range("B2").end(xlDown).Row + 1
End Sub
The range + 1 is throwing you.
Try defining the last row outside of the destination, so you can paste to a known cell location, such as:
dim lr as long, lr2 as Long
With Sheets("SQL_DATA_FEED")
lr = .cells(.rows.count,2).end(xlup).row
lr2 = ssaw.cells(ssaw.rows.count,3).end(xlup).row
ssaw.Range(ssaw.cells(2,"C"),ssaw.cells(lr2,"C")).Copy Destination:=.cells(lr+1,2)
End With

I am going mad trying to do the simplest thing in VBA.
I want to automate the copying of Column C on a worksheet a variable number of times to the adjacent columns D, E, F...etc. of the same worksheet.
Stepping through the code, I have it copying the correct column ("C:C") but cannot get it to paste via Paste, Offset or Destination to column D etc. for the variable number of instances.
this is the code I'm using. Assume all the Dim and Set statements are done as it's a small part of larger Sub.
sht02AnalysisSummary.Activate
For i = 0 To AddCol
i = i + 1
lLastCol = sht02AnalysisSummary.Range("C3").End(xlToLeft).Column
rangeCopy.Copy
Column.Offset("0,lLastCol+i").Paste
Next i
sht01CoverPage.Activate
This sort of works now but with AddCol set at 3, the result is skipping Column D and only repeating the pasting once (into Column E) whereas it should be pasting into D,E & F. Any pointers will be much appreciated.
Do not manually code your iteration var in a For ... Next; you will be disrupting the built-in iteration and progression.
The xlToLeft leaves me confused about the destination (or is it source...?). Perhaps that should be xlToRight or your should start further right before starting to look to the left ?
you should be able to paste a single column into three consecutive destination columns at once.
AddCol = 3
with sht02AnalysisSummary
set rangeCopy = .range(.cells(3, "C"), .cells(.rows.count, "C").end(xlup))
rangeCopy.Copy destination:=.Cells(3, .columns.count).End(xlToLeft).resize(rangeCopy.rows.count, AddCol)
end with
This should work:
Sub CopyPaste()
Dim sht As Worksheet
Set sht = Worksheets("Sheet1")
With sht
.Columns(3).Copy .Columns(4)
End With
End Sub
I am having difficulty looping through each column before looping through the next row. The number of columns is fixed (A:K) with an unknown number of rows. The goal is to find highlighted cells (no distinct color.. and I figured the best way to do this is to code "If Not No Fill") and copy that whole row to another workbook. This is what I have so far and I am stuck:
Option Explicit
Sub Approval_Flow()
Dim AppFlowWkb As Workbook, ConfigWkb As Workbook
Dim AppFlowWkst As Worksheet, ConfigWkst As Worksheet
Dim header As Range, headerend As Range
Dim row As Long, column As Long
Set AppFlowWkb = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\clara\Documents\Templates and Scripts\Approval Flow Change Log.xlsx")
Set ConfigWkb = ThisWorkbook
Set AppFlowWkst = AppFlowWkb.Sheets("Editor")
Set ConfigWkst = ConfigWkb.Worksheets("Approval Flows")
With ConfigWkb
Set header = Range("A7").Cells
If Not header Is Nothing Then
Set headerend = header.End(xlDown).row
For row = 7 To headerend
For j = 1 To 11
'if cell is filled (If Not No Fill), copy that whole row to another workbook
End With
End Sub
I am getting an error with the Set headerend line, but I am trying to select the last row to use it in my for loop. I appreciate any help and guidance. Thanks in advance!
You should be able to adapt this to suit your workbooks, see the comments for details
Dim aCell as Range
' Use UsedRange to get the variable number of rows,
' cycle through all the cells in that range
For Each aCell In ActiveSheet.Range("A1:K" & ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count)
' Test if fill colour is white (none)
If Not aCell.Interior.Color = RGB(255,255,255) Then
' Insert new row in target sheet (could find last row instead)
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("ThisOtherSheet").Range("A1").EntireRow.Insert
' Paste entire row into target sheet
aCell.EntireRow.Copy Destination:=ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("ThisOtherSheet").Range("A1")
End If
Next aCell
Alternatively to find the last row, if you know the range is continuous (no blanks) then you can use End(xlDown) like you had done, and like below
For Each aCell In ActiveSheet.Range("A1:K" & ActiveSheet.Range("K1").End(xlDown))
I'd guess you don't want to copy the same row multiple times if you've already copied it. You could do this by keeping an array or string with previously copied row numbers and checking before copying again, or use Excel's unique functions to strip the list down after copying.
Hope this helps.
Aside:
You're using a With block but not taking advantage of it, you need to put a dot . before your Range objects to specify that they're in your With sheet. Like so
Dim myRange as Range
With ActiveSheet
Set myRange = .Range("A1:C10")
End With
You're mixing the types.
It looks like you just want to use the Row that the Header data ends on.
Take out the .Row there, since you're setting headerend to be a cell address, not a specific value. Then change For row = 7 To headerend to For row = 7 To headerend.Row
Or, change Dim Headerend as Range to ...as Long and just do headerEnd = header.End(xlDown).Row (don't use Set)
I have a workbook with "Results" being sheet 3, this being the worksheet I want to use.
I have tried a few formulaes to try and add a macro to do the following:
I have column G with percentages. I then have column I where I would like there to be a result saying TRUE/FALSE where the contents of G are equal to 100%. Column G is formatted to percentage with two decimals.
Some considerations: I have my first row being a Hyperlink to another sheet, then my headings, then the first row of "results". I have 457 rows, if there is a measurement of the range, perhaps it could be on A?
I keep getting this error 9 with my range and have got a bit stuck.
Thanks in advance!
Sub PartialHits1()
Dim rng As Range
Dim lastRow As Long
Dim cell As Range
With Sheet3
lastRow = .Range("G" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = .Range("G1:G" & lastRow)
For Each cell In rng
If cell.Value = 100
Then
cell.Range("I1:I1").Value = 100
End If
Next
End With
End Sub
(I have hacked this a bit, just was trying to get it to set as 100 instead of the TRUE/FALSE Also was playing around near the Sheet 3 part as I got errors.)
RangeVariable.Range can refer only to a cell within RangeVariable, so you can't refer to column I in this way. Try: .Range("I"&cell.row)=100.
Also your criteria is probably wrong, if you have 100% in a cell it's actual value is 1.
And last question: why do you want to do this with VBA, it would be much more simple with worksheet function =IF(G3=1,100,"")
I have already created a VBA script that is about 160 lines long, which produces the report that you see below.
Without using cell references (because the date ranges will change each time I run this) I now need to take the users ID, name, total hours, total break, overtime 1, and overtime 2 and copy this data into sheet 2.
Any suggestions as to how I can structure a VBA script to search row B until a blank is found, when a blank is found, copy the values from column J, K, L, M on that row, and on the row above copy value C - now paste these values on sheet 2. - Continue this process until you find two consecutive blanks or the end of the data...
Even if you can suggest a different way to tackle this problem than the logic I have assumed above it would be greatly appreciated. I can share the whole code if you are interested and show you the data I began with.
Thank you in advance,
J
As discussed, here's my approach. All the details are in the code's comments so make sure you read them.
Sub GetUserNameTotals()
Dim ShTarget As Worksheet: Set ShTarget = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
Dim ShPaste As Worksheet: Set ShPaste = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2")
Dim RngTarget As Range: Set RngTarget = ShTarget.UsedRange
Dim RngTargetVisible As Range, CellRef As Range, ColRef As Range, RngNames As Range
Dim ColIDIndex As Long: ColIDIndex = Application.Match("ID", RngTarget.Rows(1), 0)
Dim LRow As Long: LRow = RngTarget.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row
'Turn off AutoFilter to avoid errors.
ShTarget.AutoFilterMode = False
'Logic: Apply filter on the UserName column, selecting blanks. We then get two essential ranges.
'RngTargetVisible is the visible range of stats. ColRef is the visible first column of stats.
With RngTarget
.AutoFilter Field:=ColIDIndex, Criteria1:="=", Operator:=xlFilterValues, VisibleDropDown:=True
Set RngTargetVisible = .Range("J2:M" & LRow).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
Set ColRef = .Range("J2:J" & LRow).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
End With
'Logic: For each cell in the first column of stats, let's get its offset one cell above
'and 7 cells to the left. This method is not necessary. Simply assigning ColRef to Column C's
'visible cells and changing below to CellRef.Offset(-1,0) is alright. I chose this way so it's
'easier to visualize the approach. RngNames is a consolidation of the cells with ranges, which we'll
'copy first before the stats.
For Each CellRef In ColRef
If RngNames Is Nothing Then
Set RngNames = CellRef.Offset(-1, -7)
Else
Set RngNames = Union(RngNames, CellRef.Offset(-1, -7))
End If
Next CellRef
'Copy the names first, then RngTargetVisible, which are the total stats. Copying headers is up
'to you. Of course, modify as necessary.
RngNames.Copy ShPaste.Range("A1")
RngTargetVisible.Copy ShPaste.Range("B1")
End Sub

Could someone please help me with some VBA code.
I am trying to copy 2 ranges of cells between workbooks (both workbooks should be created beforehand as i don't want the code to create a new workbook on the fly).
Firstly I need to copy these ranges-
From 'Sheet 3' of booka.xls, Range: Cell H5 to the last row in column H with data
copy this to 'Sheet 1' of bookb.xls, starting in Cell B2 for as many cells down in the B column
Secondly I need to copy these ranges-
From 'Sheet 3' of booka.xls, Range: Cell K5 to the last row in column K with data
copy this to 'Sheet 1' of bookb.xls, starting in Cell D2 for as many cells down in the D column
Here is what I have so far:
Sub CopyDataBetweenBooks()
Dim iRow As Long
Dim wksFr As Worksheet
Dim wksTo As Worksheet
wksFr = "C:\booka.xls"
wksTo = "C:\bookb.xls"
Set wksFrom = Workbooks(wksFr).Worksheets("Sheet 3")
Set wksTo = Workbooks(wksTo).Worksheets("Sheet 1")
With wksFrom
For iRow = 1 To 100
.Range(.Cells(iRow, 8), .Cells(iRow, 9)).Copy wksTo.Cells(iRow, 8)
Next iRow
End With
End Sub
Assuming you have the reference to wksFrom and wksTo, here is what the code should be
wksFrom.Range(wksFrom.Range("H5"), wksFrom.Range("H5").End(xlDown)).Copy wksTo.Range("B2")
wksFrom.Range(wksFrom.Range("K5"), wksFrom.Range("K5").End(xlDown)).Copy wksTo.Range("D2")
Here's an example of how to do one of the columns:
Option Explicit
Sub CopyCells()
Dim wkbkorigin As Workbook
Dim wkbkdestination As Workbook
Dim originsheet As Worksheet
Dim destsheet As Worksheet
Dim lastrow As Integer
Set wkbkorigin = Workbooks.Open("booka.xlsm")
Set wkbkdestination = Workbooks.Open("bookb.xlsm")
Set originsheet = wkbkorigin.Worksheets("Sheet3")
Set destsheet = wkbkdestination.Worksheets("Sheet1")
lastrow = originsheet.Range("H5").End(xlDown).Row
originsheet.Range("H5:H" & lastrow).Copy 'I corrected the ranges, as I had the src
destsheet.Range("B2:B" & (2 + lastrow)).PasteSpecial 'and destination ranges reversed
End Sub
As you have stated in the comments, this code above will not work for ranges with spaces, so substitute in the code below for the lastrow line:
lastrow = originsheet.range("H65536").End(xlUp).Row
Now ideally, you could make this into a subroutine that took in an origin workbook name, worksheet name/number, and range, as well as a destination workbook name, worksheet name/number, and range. Then you wouldn't have to repeat some of the code.
You can use special cells like Jonsca has suggested. However, I usually just loop through the cells. I find it gives me more control over what exactly I am copying. There is a very small effect on performance. However, I feel that in the office place, making sure the data is accurate and complete is the priority. I wrote a response to a question similar to this one that can be found here:
StackOverflow - Copying Cells in VBA for Beginners
There is also a small demonstration by iDevelop on how to use special cells for the same purpose. I think that it will help you. Good luck!
Update
In response to...
good start but it doesn't copy anything after the first blank cell – trunks Jun 9 '11 at 5:08
I just wanted to add that the tutorial in the link above will address the issue brought up in your comment. Instead of using the .End(xlDown) method, loop through the cells until you reach the last row, which you retrieve using .UsedRange.Rows.Count.
