Basically what I need to do is get the value from a specific cell from a different worksheet. The tricky part is that the name of the sheet that it has to access is displayed in a column in the same sheet.
So the status column has to get the number from the other sheet. And the other sheet has to be the name from the "sheetname" column in the same row. If there is no sheet yet it should just stay empty.
Current code I have is this. All this does is create/open the other sheet so far.
Sub CreateNewSheet()
sheet_name_to_create = Range("A" & (ActiveCell.Row)).Value
' Check if filename exists, if false create new else make it active
For rep = 1 To (Worksheets.Count)
If LCase(Sheets(rep).Name) = LCase(sheet_name_to_create) Then
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(sheet_name_to_create).Activate
Exit Sub
End If
Next
Sheets("TEMPLATE").Copy after:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
Sheets(ActiveSheet.Name).Name = sheet_name_to_create
End Sub
Its a dutch project so ignore the words at the top btw :p
I am not sure if I get you correct but below example will use Column A data as worksheet name and return cell A1 value in that target sheet to Column B same row.
Sub findNOW()
Dim lastRow As Long
Dim WS As Worksheet
Set WS = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Main1")
lastRow = WS.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 2 To lastRow
On Error Resume Next
WS.Range("B" & i).Value = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(WS.Range("A" & i).Value).Range("A1").Value
Next
End Sub
From Rory's comment it looks like if you put this formula in cell B1, you would just need to know the cell in the other worksheet (A1 in the example).
=INDIRECT(A1 & "!A1")

Rng1.Copy Destination:=Worksheets("RefindData").Range(Destination)
Where Rng1 is the range of data to be copied and Destination is currently a cell reference (E.g B2)
This code will be called multiple times. How can I alter this so that the destination is the same column (E.g column B) but the row is the next empty cell?
E.g so on the first call, B2 onwards is where the values are copied to, then on the next call the next empty cell after the first call is where the second call should start outputting its values. Then the next empty cell for the start of the third call, and so on.
I can alter the Destination variable to just state column letter if something like this:
Rng1.Copy Destination:=Worksheets("RefindData").Range(Destination & ???)
Is along the right lines?
Sub CopyPasteCells()
Dim Rng1 As Range, Rng2 As Range, ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("RefindData")
Set Rng1 = ws.Range("C2:C10") 'Copy range as you like
Set Rng2 = ws.Range("B" & ws.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) 'Paste range starting from B2 and then first empty cell
Rng1.Copy Destination:=Rng2 'Copy/Paste
End Sub
You can also try something like code below.
Assumptions:
Active cell is in the column, where you want to paste the results (you want to paste results in column B -> select cell from B column [for example B2],
The first row is filled with headers, so the results gonna be pasted from second row
Code
Sub CutCopyPaste()
Dim lngCol As Long
Dim rngCopy As Range
Set rngCopy = Range("A1") 'The cell which ic copied
lngCol = Selection.Column 'active column where the results will be pasted
On Error Resume Next
rngCopy.Copy Cells(Cells(1, lngCol).End(xlDown).Row + 1, lngCol)
If Err.Number = 1004 Then
MsgBox "Be sure that active cell is in the column, where the results should be pasted!" & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "Try again"
Err.Clear
End If
End Sub
You mean like this?
Sub Sample()
Dim rng1 As Range
Dim wsO As Worksheet
Set wsO = Worksheets("RefindData")
Set rng1 = Range("A1:A10")
rng1.Copy Destination:=wsO.Range("B" & _
wsO.Range("B" & wsO.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1)
End Sub
Every time you run the macro it will paste in the next available row after the last row.
I am attempting to do a simple copy row, paste row within a workbook. I've searched threads and tried changing my code multiple times to no avail.
The one that comes closest to working is this but it only copies a single instance of matching criteria.
I am trying to create a loop that will copy all of the rows that has a match in one of the columns.
So, if 8 columns, each row with matching value in column 7 should copy to a named sheet.
Sub test()
Set MR = Sheets("Main").Range("H1:H1000")
Dim WOLastRow As Long, Iter As Long
For Each cell In MR
If cell.Value = "X" Then
cell.EntireRow.Copy
Sheets("X").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).PasteSpecial
End If
If cell.Value = "Y" Then
cell.EntireRow.Copy
Sheets("Y").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).PasteSpecial
End If
If cell.Value = "Z" Then
cell.EntireRow.Copy
Sheets("Z").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).PasteSpecial
End If
If cell.Value = "AB" Then
cell.EntireRow.Copy
Sheets("AB").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).PasteSpecial
End If
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Next
End Sub
I like this because I need to target multiple destination sheets with different criteria but I need all rows that match criteria to copy over.
EDITED CODE IN RESPONSE TO NEW REQUEST:
The code below will copy all of the rows in Sheet Main and paste them into the corresponding worksheets based on the value in Column 7.
Do note: If there is a value in Column 7 that does NOT match to an existing sheet name, the code will throw an error. Modify the code to handle that exception.
Let me know of any additional needed help.

Your current code is pasting to the same row in each sheet over and over, to the last row with a value in column A. Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp) says, roughly "go to the very bottom of the spreadsheet in column A, and then jump up from there to the next lowest cell in column A with contents," which gets you back to the same cell each time.
Instead, you could use lines of the pattern:
Sheets("X").Range("A" & Sheets("X").UsedRange.Rows.Count + 1).PasteSpecial
Where UsedRange is a range containing all of the cells on the sheet with data in them. The + 1 puts you on the following row.
You could make this a little prettier using With:
With Sheets("X")
.Range("A" & .UsedRange.Rows.Count + 1).PasteSpecial
End With
I am trying to paste a formula next to range of cells, but only the one's that contains a value, the script must loop until the next cell in the range is empty. For instance Sheet 1 Column A contains date until row 12, then I would like to paste a formula in column D2:D12 Regards
Like this?
Option Explicit
Sub Sample()
Dim lastRow As Long, i As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Sheets("Sheet1")
lastRow = ws.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
With ws
For i = 1 To lastRow
If Len(Trim(.Range("A" & i).Value)) <> 0 Then _
.Range("D" & i).Formula = "YOUR FORMULA"
Next i
End With
End Sub
As you are looking down to the first blank cell then you can avoid a loop and use
The code includes a test to make sure that the code doesn't proceed if all of column A is blank - ie if the range from A1 down extends to the bottom of the sheet and A1 is blank
This code adds a sample formula linking each cell in column D to the respective row in column B
Sub FillData()
Dim rng1 As Range
Set rng1 = Range([a1], [a1].End(xlDown))
If Not (rng1.Rows.Count = Rows.Count And Len([a1].Value) = 0) Then rng1.Offset(0, 3).FormulaR1C1 = "=RC2"
End Sub
I like Sid's beginning, but once you have the range of rows, you can insert the formula into column D all at once, without looping, several ways, here's one:
Option Explicit
Sub AddFormula()
Dim LR As Long
LR = Range("A" & Row.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Range("D2:D12").Formula = "=A2 + 7" 'just an example of a formula
End Sub
Try this:
Range("A:A").SpecialCells(2).Areas(1).Offset(, 3).Formula = "MyFormula"
This is a simple solution that is built into Excel, as long as you don't want to copy to the first blank, jump over the blank, then continue copying:
Enter the formula in the first cell of your range, and as long as it is in the column directly to the right or left of your range of filled cells, simply double-click the black box handler in the bottom right-hand corner of the cell. That will automatically copy your formula down to the last non-empty cell of the range.
I'm newbie in VBA, what I need to do is to copy rows from specified column into a column on the other worksheet, but I want to copy just one occurance of each word, for example
Column "F"
dog
dog
cat
dog
In the result I need to have new Worksheet called "Animals" with:
Column "A" Column "B"
1 dog
2 cat
Here is a sub routine that will do exactly what you want: slap a list of unique elements in Sheet1 column F into column A of sheet2 and rename the sheet "animals". You could tweak this so that instead of it changing the name of sheet2 it can create a new sheet if you like.
Sub UniqueList()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim lastRow As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim dictionary As Object
Set dictionary = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
Sheet1.Activate
lastRow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.count, "F").End(xlUp).row
On Error Resume Next
For i = 1 To lastRow
If Len(cells(i, "F")) <> 0 Then
dictionary.Add cells(i, "F").Value, 1
End If
Next
Sheet2.range("a1").Resize(dictionary.count).Value = _
Application.Transpose(dictionary.keys)
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
MsgBox dictionary.count & " unique cell(s) were found and copied."
End Sub
How it works: I use a dictionary file, which will automatically take out any dupes, then slap the list of entries into sheet2.
Do you need to do this in VBA at all?
If you just want to get a unique copy of your list, select the unsorted, non-unique column contents including the header, then hit the Advanced... button on the Sort and Filter pane of the Data ribbon. You can ask it to copy to another location and tick Unique records only.
Recording this activity and looking at the VBA, this is how it looks:
Range("A1:A4").AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, CopyToRange:=Range("B1"), Unique:=True
here is a solution:
Option Explicit
Sub copyNoDuplicates()
Dim rLastCell As Range
Dim cell As Range, i As Long
Dim cAnimals As Collection
Set cAnimals = New Collection
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
'Find last used cell
Set rLastCell = .Range("F65536").End(xlUp)
'Parse every animal and put it in a collection
On Error Resume Next
For Each cell In .Range("F2:F" & rLastCell.Row)
cAnimals.Add cell.Value, CStr(cell.Value)
Next cell
On Error GoTo 0
End With
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2")
For i = 1 To cAnimals.Count
.Range("A" & i).Value = i
.Range("B" & i).Value = cAnimals(i)
Next i
End With
End Sub
I'm trying to write a vba macro for a group tha
has one workbook where they daily create new worksheets, and also have
Sheet 1, Sheet 2 and Sheet 3 at the end of their long list of sheets.
I need to create a external cell reference in a new column in a different workbook where this information is being summarized.
So I need to know how to get the last non-empty sheet so I can grab this data and place it appropriately in the summary.
This function works through the sheets from right to left until it finds a non-blank sheet, and returns its name
Function GetLastNonEmptySheetName() As String
Dim i As Long
For i = Worksheets.Count To 1 Step -1
If Sheets(i).UsedRange.Cells.Count > 1 Then
GetLastNonEmptySheetName = Sheets(i).Name
Exit Function
End If
Next i
End Function
The method above will ignore a sheet with a single cell entry, while that may seem to be a quibble, a Find looking for a non-blank cell will give more certainty.
The xlFormulas argument in the Find method will find hidden cells (but not filtered cells) whereas xlValues won't.
Sub FindLastSht()
Dim lngCnt As Long
Dim rng1 As Range
Dim strSht As String
With ActiveWorkbook
For lngCnt = .Worksheets.Count To 1 Step -1
Set rng1 = .Sheets(lngCnt).Cells.Find("*", , xlFormulas)
If Not rng1 Is Nothing Then
strSht = .Sheets(lngCnt).Name
Exit For
End If
Next lngCnt
If Len(strSht) > 0 Then
MsgBox "Last used sheet in " & .Name & " is " & strSht
Else
MsgBox "No data is contained in " & .Name
End If
End With
End Sub
