Best way to return data from multiple columns into one row? - vba

Question

I have a sheet with just order numbers and another with order numbers and all of the data associated with those order numbers. I want to match the order numbers and transfer all of the available data into the other sheet. I've been trying to use loops and VLOOKUP but I'm having problems (plus I have 116 columns I want to transfer data from so my vlookup expression doesn't look very nice). Any advice would be appreciated!
this is what I have so far and I'm getting an object error.
I don't think it's the right way to go about it in general though.
Dim LookUpRange As Range
Dim row As Range
Set LookUpRange = Worksheets("batches").Range("B4:B1384")
Set row = Worksheets("batches").Range("C:DL")
For Each row In LookUpRange
row.Select
Selection.FormulaArray ="=VLOOKUP(RC[-1],OrderLvl!RC[-1]:R[1380]C[113],{2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100,101,102,103,104,105,106,207,108,109,110,111,112,113,114,115},FALSE)"
Next row
End Sub

Please consider this VBA script to resolve your inquiry:
Sub LookupOuput()
Dim OrderNumberColumn As Range
Set OrderNumberColumn = Worksheets("batches").Range("B2:B1384")
Dim LookUpRange As Range
Set LookUpRange = Worksheets("OrderLvl").Range("C:DL")
Dim cell As Range
Dim FindResult As Range
For Each cell In OrderNumberColumn
If Not cell.Value2 = Empty Then
Set FindResult = LookUpRange.Find(what:=cell.Value2)
If Not FindResult Is Nothing Then
cell.Range("A1:DJ1").Value2 = LookUpRange.Rows(FindResult.row).Value2
End If
End If
Next cell
End Sub
Basically searches for each Order Number in the first sheet on the second sheet. This outputs (if search term exists) the cell that that string is found which we later refer to its row number to output the whole row to the first sheet. Cheers,

A regular VLOOKUP may be able to give you what you need, if you use a small trick...
Insert a row above the data table, and put sequential numbers in
each cell of that row. (ie, A1 = 1, B1 = 2, C1 = 3, etc...)
Do the same thing on your blank table.
Assuming that your first order number is in cell A2, put the following formula into B2: =VLOOKUP($A2,[other sheet name]!$A$1:$DZ$5000,B$1,0)
Drag this formula across all 116 columns, then down all however many rows you've got.
You'll need to adjust the ranges, obviously, but make sure that your lookup array starts in column A. (or alternatively, that your numbers start in the same column as the first column in your array.) Adding the numbers along the top allows you to change what column of the array you're referencing, just by dragging the cell formula.
