Copy a specified range and paste to a sheet - vba

The code below works well apart from the specific element:
rowstopasteperiodsWks.Range(("A14"), ActiveCell.Offset(-pasteCount, 0)).Copy_
Destination:=Worksheets("Input").Range(LastRowPeriod,Offset(-pasteCount,0))
I am trying to copy a range of cells (A14 and a specified (n) number of cells above this cell) from the RowsToPaste sheet and paste this range to the Input sheet to the last cell in the row of column D (so that the last row in column D will have A14 values, th second last will have A13 value etc.)
Thanks

if you have to copy cell "A14" and pasteCount more cells above it:
rowstopasteperiodsWks.Range("A14").Offset(-pasteCount).Resize(pasteCount + 1).Copy _
Destination:=Worksheets("Input").Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Offset(1)
if you have to copy pasteCount cells starting from "A14" upwards:
rowstopasteperiodsWks.Range("A14").Offset(-pasteCount+1).Resize(pasteCount).Copy _
Destination:=Worksheets("Input").Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Offset(1)

Just noticed one obvious error.
Fix it and try again::
rowstopasteperiodsWks.Range(("A14"), ActiveCell.Offset(pasteCount*-1, 0)).Copy_
Destination:=Worksheets("Input").Range(LastRowPeriod,Offset(pasteCount*-1,0))

copying from one sheet to another

I am trying to copy my data depending on the column value. If column R has invalid, then it should copy all information from sheet1 to sheet2.
I have below code running. Due to some reason it does not copy the last two rows of my sheet1.
I have 551 rows in sheet1 , and I have the 551 row column R as invalid. 'It checks only till 548 rows and skips the last row without moving them.
Could someone help me to fix this issue
Sub Tab()
Dim cell As Range
Dim nextrow As Long
Dim a As Double
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
' get the count of rows in column r
a = Sheets("sheet1").Cells(Rows.count, "R").End(xlUp).Row
MsgBox (a)
For Each cell In Sheets("sheet1").Range("R5:R" & a)
' if the cell in column R has invalid, then copy the entire row to another sheet
If cell.Value = "Invalid" Then
nextrow = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(Sheets("sheet2").Range("R:R"))
Rows(cell.Row).Copy Destination:=Sheets("sheet2").Range("A" & nextrow + 1)
End If
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Instead of
Rows(cell.Row).Copy Destination:=Sheets("sheet2").Range("A" & nextrow + 1)
try
Sheets("sheet1").Rows(cell.Row).Copy Destination:=Sheets("sheet2").Range("A" & nextrow + 1)
Your code can be written as
Sub Demo()
Dim cell As Range
Dim nextrow As Long, a as Long
Dim srcSht As Worksheet, destSht As Worksheet
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set srcSht = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet3")
Set destSht = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet6")
nextrow = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(destSht.Range("R:R"))
With srcSht
a = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "R").End(xlUp).Row
MsgBox a
For Each cell In .Range("R5:R" & a)
' if the cell in column R has invalid, then copy the entire row to another sheet
If cell.Value = "Invalid" Then
.Rows(cell.Row).Copy Destination:=destSht.Range("A" & nextrow + 1)
nextrow = nextrow + 1
End If
Next
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Also instead of pasting data row by row you can also use UNION.
I will not go into the part on the variables and methodology (everyone has their way of scripting). I will respond based on your base code above, hopefully it is clear for your understanding.
Sub Tab()
Dim cell As Range
Dim nextrow As Long
Dim a As Double
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
' get the count of rows in column r
a = Sheets("sheet1").Cells(Rows.count, "R").End(xlUp).Row
MsgBox (a)
'This is assuming that you will always populate starting from the first row Range("A1") in Sheet2
nextrow = 1
For Each cell In Sheets("sheet1").Range("R5:R" & a)
' if the cell in column R has invalid, then copy the entire row to another sheet
If cell.Value = "Invalid" Then
'Use the EntireRow function to copy the whole row to the Sheet2.
'During the next iteration, it will +1 to nextrow, so the next record will be copied to Range("A2"), next Range("A3") and so forth.
cell.EntireRow.Copy Destination:=Sheets("Sheet2").Range("a" & nextrow)
nextrow = nextrow + 1
End If
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Paste into multiple rows and not a single row

The code below copies data (Associate Entry named range) and pastes it into the particular row number (1RecRow) in a different sheet (AssociateData).
I would like the row to be pasted to all the rows ONLY BELOW the numbered row.
There are a couple of things to bear in mind:
A. The data is filtered and I would like the pasting to affect rows below "1 RecRow" within the filtered view (not ALL - unfiltered - data).
B. If it helps, the data is sorted in a way if the "1 RecRow" is 23, then the next row is 24, 25, 26, 27 (in order).
So manually I would do it in this way: Paste the data in the particular row, copy the data again from 1 RecRow, Ctrl+Shift+Down arrow and Paste. I'm just not sure how to adjust the code so that it performs it.
Thanks

Giving this a try... you would specify visible cells to not overwrite the hidden items.
Dim LR As Long
LR = Cells(Sheets("AssociateData").Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
myCopy.Copy
.Range(Cells(lRecRow, 3), Cells(LR,3)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).PasteSpecial xlValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
That should paste over the defined range. I think it would be better than FillDown... which would look like:
.Range(Cells(lRecRow, 3),Cells(LR,3)).FillDown
If you want to filldown, you would put that in directly after you have pasted the value/formula.

VBA Excel Copy and Paste a table into a new Workbook and choice which Columns i want to copy

I want to copy a table into a new Workbook while choosing which range I want to copy and knowing that the first Columns ("A") is automatically copied. (rows are not a problem, all of them have to be copied)
For example, i have a table composed of 28 rows and 10 columns. Added to A1:A28 (first columns, all rows),i want just to copy the column 5 and 8 with all its rows.
That's what i have until now but it doesn't work.
Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim newWB As Workbook, currentWB As Workbook
Dim newS As Worksheet, currentS As Worksheet
Dim CurrCols As Variant
Dim rng As rang
'Copy the data you need
Set currentWB = ThisWorkbook
Set currentS = currentWB.Sheets("Feuil1")
'select which columns you want to copy
CurrCols = InputBox("Select which column you want to copy from table (up to 10)")
If Not IsNumeric(CurrCols) Then
MsgBox "Please select a valid Numeric value !", vbCritical
End
Else
CurrCols = CLng(CurrCols)
End If
'Set rng = currentWB.currentS.Range(Cells(1, A), Cells(27, CurrCols)).Select
currentS.Range("A1:A27").Select
Selection.copy
Set rng = currentWB.currentS.Range(Cells(1, CurrCols), Cells(28, CurrCols)).Select
rng.copy
'Create a new file that will receive the data
Set newWB = Workbooks.Add
With newWB
Set newS = newWB.Sheets("Feuil1")
newS.Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, _
SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
End With
End Sub
Can you help please solving it? Thanks in advance!
You can't copy a non-continuous range but you can load the data into an array and write it once to the new workbook.

Set MyColumns = Intersect(MyColumns, ActiveSheet.UsedRange)

Next
Next

With area '<--| reference current area
newSht.Range("A1").Offset(, iArea).Resize(.Rows.Count, .Columns.Count).value = .value '<--| copy its values in 'newSht' current column offset from "A1" cell

Dim elem As Variant

I think you can copy all column to a temp sheet and then write some code to delete the useless column. finally paste the table to your expected area.

VBA how to loop from the first cell/column (Force it)

Below are my codes, I am trying to force the checking to start from the first cell, but it doesn't work. Can anyone advise me on that. Thanks
I am trying to do checking on the names which is on the 3rd column of Workbook A and compare it with the other column in another workbook. Upon match of the string, it will copy certain cells to the desalinated column

Update Question:
I have the code below, I need to make the column A to be incremental. Anyone have suggestion how to achieve that?
Sheets("Diff").Range("A").Select
The line Set selectedCell = selectedCell + 1 throws an error when I run it and doesn't appear to do anything in the code, if that is the case you should comment it out or delete it.
Also I think you need to change
Else
If IsEmpty(Cells(i, 1)) = True Then 'if cells in column "A" is empty then stop
to
ElseIf IsEmpty(Cells(i, 1)) = True Then 'if cells in column "A" is empty then stop
As it stands you have an extra open If statement.

Excel Looping through rows and copy cell values to another worksheet

I am facing some difficulty in achieving the desired result for my macro.
Intention:
I have a list of data in sheets(input).column A (the number of rows that has value will vary and hence I created a loop that will run the macro until the activecell is blank).
My macro starts from Range(A2) and stretches all the way down column A, it stops only when it hits a blank row
Desired result for the macro will be to start copying the cell value in sheet(input).Range(A2) paste it to sheet(mywork).Range(B2:B6).
For example, if "Peter" was the value in cell sheet(input),range(A2) then when the marco runs and paste the value into sheet(mywork) range(B2:B6). ie range B2:B6 will reflect "Peter"
Then the macros loop back to sheet(input) & copy the next cell value and paste it to range(B7:B10)
Example: "Dave" was the value in sheet(input) Range(A3), then "Dave" will be paste into the next 4 rows in sheet(mywork).Range(B7:B10). B7:B10 will reflect "Dave"
Again repeating the same process goes back to sheet(input) this time range(A4), copys the value goes to sheet(mywork) and paste it into B11:B15.
Basically the process repeats....
The macro ends the when the activecell in sheet(input) column A is empty.
Sub playmacro()
Dim xxx As Long, yyy As Long
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Input").Range("A2").Activate
Do While ActiveCell.Value <> ""

yyy = xxx + 3
Worksheets("mywork").Activate
With ActiveSheet
.Range(Cells(xxx, 2), Cells(yyy, 2)).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End With
Next xxx
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Input").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Loop
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

For Each RA In Rng.Areas

End Sub
Alternatively
Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("P2").Value = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("L10")
This is a CopynPaste - Method
Sub CopyDataToPlan()

Dim LColumn As Integer
Dim LFound As Boolean

And there might be some methods doing that in Excel.
