I am working on filling out 100 instances of a form from data that I have in a master table. I am looking for a way to automate this.
The form has the fields NAME and DATE (as well as others) I am looking to create a code that will take the NAME and DATE from a row in the master table, fill it into the form that is on a separate sheet, and then repeat the process for the next row and sheet. Example:
Sheet 1: Will take NAME and DATE from Row A
Sheet 2: Will take NAME and DATE from Row B
Sheet 3: Will take NAME and DATE from Row C
...
I'm attempting to learn VB on the fly with this, but have been unsuccessful thus far.
For my quick attempt to work, your sheets will need to have similar names with an incremented number at the end (sheet1, sheet2, ...) and your master data table sheet to be named "MasterData". Also it assumes your names are in column A and dates, column B, and that you start at the first row.
Sub NameDate()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To 100 'assuming 100 sheets
Sheets("Sheet" & i).Range("A1") = Sheets("MasterData").Range("A" & i) 'placing the name in row i in the Sheet's A1 cell
Sheets("Sheet" & i).Range("B1") = Sheets("MasterData").Range("B" & i) 'placing the date in row i in the Sheet's B1 cell
Next 'next i = next row for the master data sheet AND the next sheet as well
End Sub
This is extremely basic, highly improveable, and I can explain how it works in the comments if you don't understand.
Try something like this:
I would highly recommend you test this code on a seperate worksheet first with only a few "names" and "dates"
Let me know if this is what you needed or if you need it to be modified!
Create a new button with the following code:
Dim ColumnA As String
Dim ColumnB As String
Range("A2").Select
Do Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell)
ColumnA = ActiveCell.Value
ColumnB = ActiveCell.Offset(columnOffset:=1).Value
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Add After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
Range("A1").Value = ColumnA
Range("B1").Value = ColumnB
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Activate
ActiveCell.Offset(rowOffset:=1).Select
Loop
End Sub

I am attempting to match 2 columns in two separate worksheets and then fill data from worksheet 2 in worksheet 1.
I need to match Column A(Worksheet 2) to Column D(Worksheet 1). Once Matched I need to fill Column F(Worksheet 1) with the data from Column B(Worksheet 2). Once data is populated I would also like to change the color of Column F(Worksheet 1) based on the data that is present. Worksheet 1
Worksheet 2
Put this in F2 On Sheet 1, update the sheet name Sheet2 to whatever your second sheet is named, then copy down:
=VLOOKUP($D2,Sheet2!$A:$B,2,FALSE)
Then you can apply conditional formatting to Column F on Sheet 1.
If you might have values in Sheet 1 that aren't in Sheet 2, this will handle the error:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP($D2,Sheet2!$A:$B,2,FALSE),"Not Found!")
[Updated for additional question about spanning accross workbooks]
For another open workbook, use the following and replace [Book2] with the path of the second workbook or the name of an open workbook:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP($D2,[Book2]Sheet2!$A:$B,2,FALSE),"Not Found!")
Also note, Excel will automatically build all of the references if you select them manually while building the formula in the formula bar: Excel Formulas Overview on MSDN
More information is needed to provide you with an exact code but here is a good start
'Assuming there are 10 rows in each worksheet
dim i as integer
dim j as integer
for i = 1 to 10
for j = 1 to 10
if sheet1.cells(i,4).value = sheet2.cells(j,1).value then
sheet1.cells(i,6).value = sheet1.cells(j,2).value
sheet1.cells(i,6).interior.color = vbyellow
end if
next j
next i
the color can also be controlled with the rgb function, simply replace the vbyellow in the above code:
For example rgb(255,204,255) will be a light pink
I use a lot of tables in my code
My table is somewhere in my worksheet.
I know I can go to the first cell with the following code:
Worksheets("sheet").ListObjects("table").Range.Cells(1, 1).Activate
But I would like to store the row and column number in 2 integers ie. column = 3 and row = 4 if first cell of table is C4.
Worksheets("sheet").ListObjects("table").Row and Column are not working unfortunately
This prints the row and the column of the first cell of the table:
Public Sub TestMe()
Dim tbl As ListObject
Set tbl = Worksheets(1).ListObjects("Table1")
Debug.Print tbl.Range.Cells(1, 1).Row
Debug.Print tbl.Range.Cells(1, 1).Column
'As a bonus:
Debug.Print tbl.Range.Rows.Count 'total number of rows
Debug.Print tbl.Range.Columns.Count 'total number of columns
End Sub
Very dirty way, using your code, which is activating the Cells(1,1):
Debug.Print ActiveCell.Row
Debug.Print ActiveCell.Column
You're nearly there. You need:
Worksheets("sheet").ListObjects("table").Range.Cells(1, 1).Row
... to return the absolute row number within the spreadsheet, of your table's first row.
Obviously, the same syntax to return the column number.

I need a help. I want to copy whole cell from A sheet name "Components" only if value in Column C is > 0 to a new Sheet name "Load list"
Can someone please give me the macro code for this?
on your new sheet you can add this condition the cell or range of cells:
=IF(Components!C5>0,Components!A5)
where C5 has thevalue to compare, and A5 has the value copy if the condition happens.
Right in my swing!
The formula given by #sweetkaos will work fine, in case you want to replicate the data as it is with blanks where data is not found.
I will imagine a slightly more complicated situation. I am assuming you want just one line in the next format as is shown in your image.
Also conveniently assuming the following:
a. both sheets have fixed start points for the lists
b. 2 column lists - to be copied and pasted, with second column having value
c. Continuous, without break source list
d. basic knowledge of vba, so you can restructure the code
Here is the code. Do try to understand it line by line. Happy Excelling!
Sub populateLoadList()
'declaring range type variables
Dim rngStartFirstList As Range, rngStartLoadList As Range
'setting values to the range variables
'you must change the names of the sheets and A1 to the correct starts of your two lists
Set rngStartFirstList = Worksheets("Name_of_your_fist_sheet").Range("A1")
Set rngStartLoadList = Worksheets("Name_of_your_second_sheet").Range("A1")
Do While rngStartFirstList.Value <> ""
If rngStartFirstList.Offset(1, 0).Value < 0 Then
Range(rngStartFirstList, rngStartFirstList.Offset(0, 1)).Copy
rngStartLoadList.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Set rngStartLoadList = rngStartLoadList.Offset(1, 0)
End If
Set rngStartFirstList = rngStartFirstList.Offset(1, 0)
Loop
End Sub
Basically what i want is ... if Value on C is >0 i want whole column 10 copied to that new sheet .... not only that cell
I know there's many StackOverlow Q&A's on copying & pasting from a cell value in VBA. However, I can't seem to make it work for my own project. I want to copy the entire row(s) if it matches the Distinct Store# (non incremental) in Column H into a new sheet (in this code below, "Sheet1") which already has a template layout where I copy/paste the values. The template looks the same on every sheet before any data is filled in, except the first 2 tabs which have the data ("Appointments" and "Invoices").
I came up with the VBA below, but here's the catch- the cell# that it pastes the row(s) (in the code below, "A10") changes based on the Store #. This is because I am copying rows from the 1st sheet ("Appointments") in the workbook from the distinct Store#, then deleting the empty rows above the area where the 2nd sheet ("Invoices") data goes. Some stores may return 10 rows or none at all. The Case, which is the Store #, is currently manually put in one by one. Should it be an array instead?
Anyway...I was hoping to automate the copying/pasting and loop for each store to their sheet. Maybe I'm going about this wrong, but would anyone be kind enough to suggest how to solve my error code "Method or data member not found." as well as provide any suggestions on making my code better for a loop for filtered cell copying to different spots for each sheet.
Simple explanation of my step by step process:
1.Filter Store # from "Appointments" sheet.
2. Copy all rows for that store and paste into a new sheet with template named "Sheet1" in B3.
3. Filter Store # from "Invoices" sheet.
4. Copy all rows for that store and paste into the previously made sheet named "Sheet" under the above rows. (Some stores do not have invoices, so this section is blank/NULL). Paste destination cell for "Invoices" will be different for each store# depending on how many rows they get from the "Appointments" sheet (could be A10 or A25).
5. LOOP- Next store #, next sheet (sheet2).
Sub CopyToNewSheetInv()
Dim i As Range
Dim book As Workbooks
Dim sheet1 As Worksheets
Dim sheet2 As Worksheets
Set book = Workbooks("SampleWorkbookName")
Set sheet1 = Worksheets("AllInvoices")
Set sheet2 = Worksheets("Sheet1")
For Each i In sheet1.Range("H:H")
Select Case i.Value
Case 1243
sheet2.Range("A10").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).EntireRow.Value = i.EntireRow.Value
Case Else
End Select
Next i
End Sub
Try this:
Sub CopyToNewSheetInv()
Dim i As Range
Dim book As Workbook
Dim sheet1 As Worksheet
Dim sheet2 As Worksheet
Set book = Workbooks("SampleWorkbookName.xlsx")
Set sheet1 = book.Worksheets("AllInvoices")
Set sheet2 = book.Worksheets("Sheet1")
'iterate only thorugh those cells in H that have data, not all 1.04 million
For Each i In sheet1.Range("H1", sheet1.Range("H" & sheet1.Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
Select Case i.Value
Case 1243,"1243"
sheet2.Rows(sheet2.Range("A10000").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row).Value = sheet1.Rows(i.Row).Value
Case Else
End Select
Next i
End Sub
I've got a macro that essentially searches column C in Sheet1 for the value "Rec" and copies the corresponding value in column D, then pastes it into the last open cell in column B of Sheet2. It does just what it is supposed to do and is as follows:
Sub FindPasteGSVInNextCell()
Worksheets("Sheet2").Activate
Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Value = _
WorksheetFunction.VLookup("Rec", Sheet1.Range("C2:H25"), 2, False)
End Sub
I now want the code, instead of just searching for a single "Rec" value, to search for all rows with "Rec" in column C and to sum up all of their corresponding values in column D, then place that sum into Sheet2.
I am assuming that I need some kind of Do Until loop or something, but I am not exactly sure how to format it... I am a beginner with VBA, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
vlookup will not work as it will continue to only grab the first instance of "Rec".
On Sheet 2 list all the possible categories in column A then in column B1 put
= sumif(Sheet1!C:C,A1,Sheet1!D:D)
then copy down. This will Get you the totals by category.
If you want to use VBA, you will still need a list of categories setup somewhere, either hard coded or listed somewhere that you can loop through.
If your list was in column A on Sheet2 then you would:
dim ws as worksheet
set ws = Worksheets("Sheet2")
For each i in ws.range(ws.Range("A1"),ws.Range("A1").offset(xldown)).Cells
i.offset(,1) = WorksheetFunction.Sumif(Worksheets("Sheets1").Range("C:C"), _
i,Worksheets("Sheets1").Range("D:D"))
next i
