I am working on a simple code but i have not able to crack it. i want the macro to run and pick up a value (2), and copy and paste the cells A to C , into sheet 2. The code below does copy the Cells A-B and pastes. I failing on the loop . I want it to loop from 1st row to last row. please.
Sub Tier_2()
With Sheets("Sheet1")
.Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(3, 3)).Copy Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(1, 1)
End With
End Sub
This isn't for your specific situation, but the concept is what you are looking for. You should be able to do some research with what I'm showing you and figure it out.
lastRow = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row 'gets last row of Source sheet
For x = 1 to lastRow
Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(x, 1) = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(x, 1) 'copy data from Sheet1 to Sheet2 row x
Next x 'loop and add one to x
You can use variables for either the row or column numbers in either the source or target sheets. You can insert another loop inside the first one. I'm not sure of what you are looking for, but your question didn't seem to have a loop in it at all.
If that doesn't get you going in the right direction try "Do While Loop" in a search.
EDIT: Updated the formula to better reflect idea.

I have 2 different workbooks, main and copy.
Row 1 is meant for header/labeling the information it will be providing for both workbooks.
The "main" workbook will be using columns A to N. The copy will be using columns A to M.
The criteria to determine whether the code will be copying is the workbook, "main", column M.
If the cell contains "X" - it will copy column A to L, and N, to the workbook "copy". After which, it will go on to the next row to determine the same thing.
If the cell is empty, it will proceed down to the next row to determine the same thing as well.
The code has to be dynamic as new information will be added every 3 months, such as new rows added or the criteria changing from "X" to empty, or empty to "X".
I am a beginner in VBA excel, and have been trying out multiple codes but it doesn't seems to work. Would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me out with this.
Showing your code so far will help us a lot.
Maybe this helps a little:
Dim wks As Worksheet
Dim wks_copy As Worksheet
Set wks = Worksheets("main")
Set wks_copy = Worksheets("copy")
j = 2
For i = 2 To wks.UsedRange.Rows.Count
If wks.Cells(i, 13).Value = "x" Then
wks.Range(Cells(i, 1), Cells(i, 14)).Copy Destination:=wks_copy.Cells(j, 1)
j = j + 1
End If
Next i
This will copy the entire row. If you don't want to copy column M, I suggest clearing or hiding the column after copying.
If the macro runs again after 3 months, it will overwrite the existing data on Worksheet copy. But you should delete the worksheet's values before that, for example by using
Worksheets("copy").UsedRange.Offset(1, 0).ClearContents
or manually clearing the range.
Looking to automate the insertion of a VLOOKUP formula in a cell.
When recording the macro I instruct it to populate the columns below with the same formula. Works great, however, there is an issue when the table that the VLOOKUP searches through changes (more or less rows).
As it's recorded, the VLOOKUP drops down to the final row in the table (273). However, I want to set it up so that it will go down to the very last row. Meaning that I can run the script on tables of varying numbers of rows.
Selected columns will remain the same.
Range("AJ2").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=VLOOKUP(RC[-20], Previous!R2C2:R273C22,17,FALSE)"
try this:
With Worksheets("Previous")
Range("AJ2").FormulaR1C1 = _
"=VLOOKUP(RC[-20], Previous!R2C2:R" & .Cells(.Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row & "C22,17,FALSE)"
End With
where:
Range("AJ2")
will implicitly reference the ActiveSheet
.Cells(.Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row
will reference "Previous" worksheet, being inside a With Worksheets("Previous")- End With block
#nbayly said it, plenty of posts on this. Infact i have provided an answer to this before here:
How to Replace RC Formula Value with Variable
below is slightly modified for a dynamic range, which is what i believe you are looking for
For j = n To 10 Step -1
If Cells(j, 1).Value = "" Then
Cells(j, 1).Formula = "=VLookup(RC20,Previous!R2C2:R273C22,17,FALSE)"
End If
Next j
remember to define j as long and n=sheets("sheetname)".cells(rows.count,1).end(xlup).row
replace 10 in j = n to 10 with the starting row number
This process is being used for QC purposes. I have a spreadsheet that highlights certain cells that are wrong based off of their values and the validation rules we have in place. I was wonder if there was a way to return the column names of each cell that is colored into column A for each row? So for example if D2, F2, and G2 are wrong it would put all of those column headers in A2 to specify what exactly is wrong. I know it gets a bit more complicated trying to automate stuff with cell colors and I am not experienced in VBA which I'm assuming this will need. Is this possible to do, if so what would be the proper route to take? The data runs from column A to column BS, and the row numbers may differ, so if it could run up to row 1,000 that would be great. Attached is what the data looks like that I am working with.
The red means something is wrong in that row, and the orange cell is the color indicating that it is a wrong value
Yes, it is possible to do. Here is some snippets of code I pulled together to help get you started.
Lastrow = Cells(Rows.count, "A").End(xlUp).Row 'Get last row
With ActiveSheet
Lastcol = .Cells(1, .Columns.count).End(xlToLeft).Column 'Get last col
End With
For x = 1 To Lastcol 'Iterate Col
For i = 1 To Lastrow 'Iterate Row
'if red....
If Cells(i, x).Selection.Interior.Color = 255 then
'Move name to Cell A and append off of old name(s).
Cells(i, "A") = Cells(i, "A") & ", " & Cells(i, x)
End If
Next i 'next row
Next x 'next col
I have two sheets of data. The first sheet is imported data that will show total users to my site from the day before. The second sheet is a table with all historical data from those daily reports. I'd like to automate a way to copy the data from my first sheet (that data will always be in the same cell) to a new row at the bottom of my existing table. Here's what I have:
Sub Insert_New_Rows()
Dim Lr As Integer
Lr = Range("AF" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Rows(Lr + 1).Insert Shift:=xlDown
Cells(Lr + 1, "AF") = Cells(Lr, "AF") + 1
Sheets("Day Before").Range("$A$12:$B$12").Copy
Sheets("Historical").Cells(Lr + 1, "AF").Paste
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub
In this, you'll see that my table is in columns AF and AG. When I run this macro, it only adds a row, it does not copy and paste the information.
I am not really sure where your table starts on the sheet "Day Before". So, I am assuming that it starts in row 1. Based on this assumption here is a little revision to your code:
Option Explicit
Sub Insert_New_Rows()
Dim lngNextEmptyRow As Long
Dim lngLastImportRow As Long
Dim shtYstrdy As Worksheet
Set shtYstrdy = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Day Before")
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Historical")
lngNextEmptyRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "AF").End(xlUp).Row + 1
.Rows(lngNextEmptyRow).Insert Shift:=xlDown
.Cells(lngNextEmptyRow, "AF").Value2 = _
.Cells(lngNextEmptyRow - 1, "AF").Value2 + 1
lngLastImportRow = shtYstrdy.Cells(shtYstrdy.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
shtYstrdy.Range("A1:B" & lngLastImportRow).Copy _
Destination:=.Cells(lngNextEmptyRow, "AF")
End With
End Sub
Changes:
Explicit coding as suggested by #findwindow stating the workbook and the sheet before each Range, Cells, reference.
Copy and paste in one line of code (before three lines of code).
Using lngNextEmptyRow instead of LastRow so be can skip all these +1.
Determine the size (last row) of the table on the sheet "Day Before", so we know how much we need to copy over.
I hope this is the answer you've been looking for. Let me know if I misunderstood something or if anything requires more explanations.
There is no need to Active or Select Ranges. It is best to work with the Ranges directly. Rarely should you use ActiveCell, ActiveWorkSheet, or Selection.
This is how Copy and Paste work
Here is the shorthand for Copy and Paste
Range(SourceRange).Copy Range(DestinationRange)
Know that this will work for you:
Sheets("Day Before").Range("$A$12:$B$12").Copy Sheets("Historical").Cells(Rows.Count, "AF").End(xlUp).Offset(1)
I understand that this is a question that has been asked before in a multitude of forms, but every time I try to use the solution to answer my problem, it's not working and I can't figure out how to adjust to make it work for me.
I have a sheet that, with formulas, pulls all of the data from a daily-updated spreadsheet based on NBA games; in other words, who they're playing, what their opponent's rank is, etc... This creates a large spreadsheet with a line for each player with the aforementioned data next to players who are active tonight.
If a player isn't active, his line is blank.
I want to set up a way to automatically parse a new sheet with just the list of active players, skipping the inactive players. I understand that I need to create a looped macro that will go through each cell and copy that cell value if it <>"", but I can't seem to get it to work.
I was able to answer this myself, sorry I wasn't able to post this sooner. I had the macro check for an empty cell in Column P, if there wasn't one, I had it copy that row to a sheet specified by that player's position.
Sub ActivePlayers()
Dim i As Long
Sheets("AllPlayers").Select
' Find the last row of data
FinalRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
' Loop through each row
For i = 3 To FinalRow
' Decide if to copy based on column P and which sheet to copy to based on Column B
ThisValue = Cells(i, 16).Value
Position = Cells(i, 2).Value
If ThisValue <> "" Then
Cells(i, 1).Resize(1, 33).Copy
Sheets(Position).Select
NextRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row + 1
Cells(NextRow, 1).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Sheets("AllPlayers").Select
End If
Next i
End Sub
