VBA vlookup code in different sheet - vba

I am new to VBA.
I have 2 sheets under my excel: "Data", "Sheet1".Data sheet is amended every day.
I would like to use vlookup VBA macro to rows added to column A in Sheet1. However my code doesn't give me any results (it works if I run macro under same sheet where data are). Thank you
Private Sub CommandButton21_Click()
On Error Resume Next
Sheet1.Range("B3:D500").Clear
Dim Dept_Row As Long
Dim Dept_Clm As Long
Table1 = Sheet1.Range("A3:A50")
Table2 = Data.Range("A3:H24")
Dept_Row = Sheet1.Range("B3").Row
Dept_Clm1 = Sheet1.Range("B3").Column
Dept_Clm2 = Sheet1.Range("C3").Column
Dept_Clm3 = Sheet1.Range("D3").Column
For Each cl In Table1
Sheet1.Cells(Dept_Row, Dept_Clm1) = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(cl, Table2, 6, False)
Sheet1.Cells(Dept_Row, Dept_Clm2) = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(cl, Table2, 7, False)
Sheet1.Cells(Dept_Row, Dept_Clm3) = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(cl, Table2, 8, False)
Dept_Row = Dept_Row + 1
Next cl
MsgBox "Done"
End Sub

If you are going to code the solution it would be better if you dimension the worksheets as such:
Dim sWS as worksheet 'Source worksheet
dim tWS as worksheet 'Target worksheet
dim aCell as range
with thisworkbook
set sws = .sheets("Data")
set tws = .sheets("Sheet1")
end with
for each acell in sws.range("A3:A50")
with tws
.cells(Dept_Row, Dept_Clm1).value = application....
'also check out the offset function for fetching values in cells to the left or right of the cell you are looping down through.
end with
next acell
Alternatively, check out the Match, Index and Indirect formulas on how to transfer data from one worksheet to another. The three functions are more efficient and accurate than vLookup, especially if you are transferring three cells from one worksheet to another.

VBA check criteria in 1 workbook, input values in another workbook

I am struggling to figure out how to get the code to do what I want, I wrote as much as I could with what I could find online, but for some aspects, I don't know what write.
Purpose of the code
Check "spreadsheet 2017" for the number "1" next to each name. If there is a "1", then enter values in multiple cells in a row in another workbook called "Dates template" (in the same row as name in "spreadsheet 2017")
Details on what I would like it to do
Column A and B has list first name (A), and surname (B)
Check through column C for "1", next to the names
If there is a 1, then switch to workbook "Dates Template"
find the same name in column A, and put the values 7.2 (col B), 3.9 (col C) and 74.2 (col D).
This is the basic backbone of the code, in the future I will be looking to add additional conditions, such as 1 in column D for example as well 1 in column C. so maybe a case function would work better, then it would be easier to add in the future. I don't know which is better.
In the code below I only wrote it to scan through the surnames in column B, because there are no duplicates. but in the future, it is likely that there will be names with the same surname, in which case first name will have to be read as well. This is where I'm confused on how to check both.
A bonus would be if its possible to copy the list of names over to the "Dates template" and then input those values if the criteria is met. Because at the moment I manually type up the names onto the "Date Template" Spreadsheet.

Thanks a lot!
Sht.Cells refers to all cells in the sheet, so you can't use .Offset() on this.

How to copy a range of cells and paste values to two different worksheets?

I have a range of data on Sheet2 that links it to Sheet1 (Sheet1 is formatted and linked by Sheet2 using =if(Sheet2$x$x="","",Sheet2$x$x); this way any data put into the range C13:G62 of Sheet2 shows up in Sheet1 range C13:G62. The beginning portion on the code works to move JUST the data in the specified range to the BATCH file Sheet3 and finds the last row pasting the values from Sheet1 without copying the formulas. It was made this way so I can delete data on Sheet2 to wipe Sheet1 clean but still have all the backup data on one Sheet3.
Anyway, the problem lies when I tried to manipulate the code to copy all contents on Sheet1 (to DUPLICATE SHEET1) to another sheet at the end of the workbook:
Sheets(Sheet1).Copy After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
ActiveSheet.Name = _
InputBox("Name of the New WorkSheet")
This allowed me to name the sheet which was great. However by creating multiple variations of code it will not move the DATA in the RANGE to the newly created Sheet4 (there is no data). In one iteration of code I was able to get Sheet1 to copy and make Sheet4 at the end of the work book with no data in the range but have the cursor land in cell C13, the starting point for pasting just the values, and when I left click the mouse in that cell to "paste values" it would paste the values that I was trying to paste. However, either way I rearranged the code, the data would always be copied but would never paste to the Sheet4 range.
Here I have posted one variation of the code IN WHICH IT STILL WILL NOT PASTE THE VALUES TO SHEET4 (THE NEWLY CREATED SHEET) but still copies to the BATCH FILE. What am I missing here?

How to iterate through rows in sheet1 given cell value in sheet2 and replace row in sheet1 with row in sheet 2?

I have to find and replace rows in sheet 1 given matching cell value in the same column in sheet2. The column number is 4.

This is what I have right now and I get an error on next x.

As A.S.H. said, the code needs a little improvement:
1) The two inner loops need to be combined.
2) The new inner loop should go from the bottom up, due to the fact that you are deleting the cell, This is probably why you have the second inner loop but that just adds time to the sub.
3) you are currently only deleting the one cell at a time, any data around it will remain. This may be what you want and so I left it, but if you meant to delete the entire row then uncomment the line that does that.
4) when testing with the instr function the variable should not be in quotes, with the variable in quotes it will look for that specific word "lookupvalues" and not the value assigned to that variable.
5) The with block that was being used did nothing. when using the with block the line that use it need to start with a '.' for example: on your code the with was with the workbook so every time a worksheet is used it should start with a "." like .ws1... and so forth. But by declaring the sheets using the workbook, this is no longer needed.
Sub DeleteRows()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
Dim rng As Range
Dim lookupvalue As String
Set wb = ActiveWorkbook
Set ws = wb.Sheets("Sheet1")
Set ws2 = wb.Sheets("sheet2")
For i = 1 To ws2.Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row
lookupvalue = ws2.Cells(i, 4).Value
For x = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row To 1 Step -1
Set rng = ws.Cells(x, 4)
If InStr(1, rng.Value, lookupvalue) > 0 Then
rng.Delete 'this only deletes the cell
'You may want this instead
'rng.entirerow.delete
End If
Next x
Next i
End Sub
I would like to propose an alternative way to handle this using a For Each Loop and the Find Method of the Range object.
Sub DeleteRows()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
Dim lookup_rng As Range
Dim lookupvalue As String
Dim search_rng As Range
Dim rng As Range
Dim match_rng As Range
Set wb = ActiveWorkbook
Set ws = wb.Sheets("Sheet1")
Set ws2 = wb.Sheets("Sheet2")
Set lookup_rng = Application.Intersect(ws2.Range("D:D"), ws.UsedRange)
Set search_rng = Application.Intersect(ws.Range("D:D"), ws2.UsedRange)
For Each rng In lookup_rng.Cells
lookupvalue = rng.Value
With search_rng
Set match_rng = .Find(lookupvalue, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious)
Do Until NoMoreMatches(match_rng)
match_rng.Delete 'Or match_rng.EntireRow.Delete if you want to delete the entire row.
Set match_rng = .FindPrevious
Loop
End With
Next
End Sub
Private Function NoMoreMatches(MatchRng As Range) As Boolean
NoMoreMatches = MatchRng Is Nothing
End Function
This approach is a little bit more wasteful then that of Scott Craner since the Find method always starts from the end of the range. However, I think it has the advantage that it is easier to read, i.e. that the code more directly shows what it is supposed to do.
Moreover, using this version you could extract the loops into a separate Sub you can use for arbitrary lookup and search ranges.

Why won't my sub using the .Copy method grab both reference ranges unless I run the sub twice?

I have cobbled together a subroutine to get two ranges of data from blocks of cells in two separate worksheets. Then, using the .Copy method, it puts the first block into (1, 1) of a third worksheet and the second block into the next available row of that worksheet.
The code I have written pretty much does what I want it to do, except that for some reason it will not paste the second range (declared as DataRng2 below) unless the sub is run twice in a row. Here is what I have:
Sub Test()
Dim DataRng As Range
Dim DataRng2 As Range
Dim Test As Worksheet
Dim EmtyRow As Range
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set Test = Worksheets("Test")
'Set the "EmptyRow" reference to whatever the next empty row is in the destination worksheet - checks column A
Set EmptyRow = Worksheets("Test").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
'Select all utilized cells in 82-Medicine tab and copy them
Worksheets("82-Medicine").Select
Set DataRng = Worksheets("82-Medicine").Cells(2, 1).CurrentRegion
'Select the destination worksheet and paste copied cells to A1
Test.Select
DataRng.Copy Cells(1, 1)
'Select all utilized cells in Fee Basis tab and copy them
Worksheets("Fee Basis").Select
Set DataRng2 = Worksheets("Fee Basis").Cells(2, 1).CurrentRegion
'Select the destination worksheet and paste copied cells to the next empty row
Test.Select
DataRng2.Copy EmptyRow
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Why do I have to run it twice to get it to work? Is there a way to fix that?
I should note that I am using the .CurrentRegion property to get the data only because rows of data will frequently be added to and subtracted from the ranges of cells I need to grab, and .CurrentRegion is the simplest way I know to grab the first range of whatever cells are occupied. I am open to using a different property or method if necessary.
Option Explicit
Sub Test()
Dim src_1 As Worksheet
Dim src_2 As Worksheet
Dim dest As Worksheet
Dim src_1_rng As Range
Dim src_2_rng As Range
Dim lr As Integer
Dim lc As Integer
Set src_1 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("82-Medicine")
Set src_2 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("FeeBasis")
Set dest = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Test")
'' Set up range for data from '82-Medicine'
lr = src_1.Cells(2, 1).End(xlDown).Row
lc = src_1.Cells(2, 1).End(xlToRight).Column
Set src_1_rng = src_1.Range(src_1.Cells(2, 1), src_1.Cells(lr, lc))
'' Set up range for data from 'FeeBasis'
lr = src_2.Cells(2, 1).End(xlDown).Row
lc = src_2.Cells(2, 1).End(xlToRight).Column
Set src_2_rng = src_2.Range(src_2.Cells(2, 1), src_2.Cells(lr, lc))
'' Copy the data to the destination sheet ('Test')
src_1_rng.Copy dest.Range("A" & dest.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1)
src_2_rng.Copy dest.Range("A" & dest.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1)
End Sub
Not sure why that wouldn't work but try this. I've never been a fan of CurrentRegion or selecting different sheets during code. Why bother when you can just use references? This should work perfectly.
edit
Changed the lr and lc variables to use xlDown from (2,1) and xlToRight from (2,1) to properly get a "CurrentRegion"-esque range.

Copy and Paste Largest value in a column from one workbook to another

I am attempting to first, find the the largest value in a column (C), then copy and paste that value into the next empty cell in 'Row 3' in a different (master) workbook. The macro I am running is found in the master workbook. I found this code that i believe will get the pasted cell into the correct spot, but I could use assistance in the code for how to find the largest cell in column C in the data workbook, and then copying and pasting that value.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim wsMaster As Worksheet, wbDATA As Workbook
Dim NextColumn As Long, LastRow As Long
Set wsMaster = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Contract Metrics")
NextColumn = wsMaster.Range("C", 3).End(xlUp).Column + 1
Set wbDATA = Workbooks.Open("C:\Documents and Settings\Michael Palkovitz\My Documents\Test\Contracts Metrics.xlsx")
wbDATA.Close False
End Sub
Try this. First sort the column you need the value from, then get the last row and place the value into your first empty column in row 3 of your master sheet.
' Create an excel application and open the workbook containing the data
Dim app As Object
Dim wb As Object
Dim ws As Object
Set app = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set wb = app.Workbooks.Open("C:\Workbook1")
Set ws = wb.Sheets(1)
' Get last row with a value to use for the sort range
Dim last As Long
Dim value As Long
With ws
last = ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp).row
.Range("C1:C" & last).Sort Key1:=.Range("C2"), order1:=xlAscending, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom
value = .Cells(last, 3)
End With
' Get the last filled cell and move over one to get the empty column
Dim col As Long
col = ActiveSheet.Cells(3, 1).End(xlToRight).Offset(0, 1).Column
ActiveSheet.Cells(3, col).value = value
wb.Close False
Set ws = Nothing
Set wb = Nothing
Set app = Nothing
