Copy row to another sheet based on value in a cell - vba

I need to copy a row of data onto another sheet based on a value in that row. The value is 0 and will always be found in Column J of the origin sheet. I want columns A - N copied to the second sheet. I found this script which copies the entire row. The problem is I need to preserve any data that was previously entered onto the second (destination) sheet in columns O - AZ. Unfortunately, the script below pastes the entire row to the second (destination) sheet and any data that was entered in columns O - AZ is lost.
Sub MyMacro()
Dim i As Long, iMatches As Long
Dim aTokens() As String: aTokens = Split("0", ",")
For Each Cell In Sheets("AMI").Range("J:J")
If Len(Cell.Value) <> 0 Then
For i = 0 To UBound(aTokens)
If InStr(1, Cell.Value, aTokens(i), vbTextCompare) Then
iMatches = (iMatches + 1)
Sheets("AMI").Rows(Cell.Row).Copy Sheets("AMI Fallout").Rows(iMatches + 1)
End If
Next
End If
Next
End Sub

You are copying a complete row with code like:
Sub dural()
Sheets("Sheet1").Rows(11).Copy Sheets("Sheet2").Rows(17)
End Sub
To copy only part of the row, use something like:
Sub dural2()
Set r1 = Intersect(Sheets("Sheet1").Rows(11), Sheets("Sheet1").Columns("A:N"))
Set r2 = Intersect(Sheets("Sheet2").Rows(13), Sheets("Sheet2").Columns("A:N"))
r1.Copy r2
End Sub

To answer your specific question, this code will only copy columns A:n of the specified row to the AMI Fallout worksheet.
Sheets("AMI").Cells(Cell.Row, 1).Resize(1, 14).Copy Sheets("AMI Fallout").Cells(iMatches + 1, 1)
I'm concerned about how you are determining a positive criteria for the row transfer. It looks like you are trying to Split a 0 on a comma (which doesn't exist) then loop through a single value array and check for partial matches on a 0. The partial matches produced by InStr are the most disconcerting.

Use something like this
Sheet1.Rows(cell.row) = sheet2.Rows(Cell.row).Value

How to create a loop to read a range of cells and determine which have values and what is to the right of each

I'm trying to have a program that can read a range of cells which consist of 12 cells (let's say: P79, R79, T79, V79, X79, Z79, AB79, AD79, AF79, AH79, AJ79, AL79) and under those cells there are 6 cells (let's say: V81, X81, Z81, AB81, AD81, AF81), the program is looking for whether or not there are values typed in the cells within the described range.
The program should be able to read the cells from left to right on the top row and loop down to the bottom row and read that from right to left.
If all the cells in the top row have values in them, then the program breaks and doesn't read the values in the bottom row.
As the program reads the values from each cell it should create a table consisting of three columns (let's say: M88, N88, O88), the leftmost column should have the cell number (in order of cell as read by the program (whichever cell has a value first in the loop is given the number 1 and then the next cell to have a value is given number 2 etc.). The middle column should have whatever value is written in it's corresponding cell read from the range. The right column should have the value of whatever is to the right of each cell containing a value.
The first value to be read with a value should give the value "Left End" and the last value to read (whether or not it is the 12th cell to have a value in the top row or the leftmost cell to have a value in the bottom row) should give the value "Right end".
An example of what a row from the table could look like:
Cell # Cell Value Position/Left/Right
1 First Left End
This is the code I have so far:
Sub Code()
Dim wb As Workbook: Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Dim ws As Worksheet: Set ws = wb.Sheets("Sheet1")
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer, k As Integer
' First loop to compare a car to the rest after it
For i = 1 To 12
For j = i + 1 To 12
If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_" & i)) And Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_" & j)) Then
ws.Range("B82").Offset(i).Value = j
Exit For
End If
Next j
Next i
' Loop backwards to find "Right End"
For k = 12 To 2 Step -1 '24 To 2
If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_12")) Then
ws.Range("B82").Offset(12).Value = "Right End"
Exit For
' Has the "Right End" Follow when cars are left blank for lower row
ElseIf IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_" & k)) And Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_" & k - 1)) Then
ws.Range("B82").Offset(k - 1).Value = "Right End"
Exit For
End If
Next k
What I have here merely inserts a count into a cell range, what I'm trying to do is have my code actually read the cells in the range in the order I described and one at a time look at which cells have values written in them and look at which cells (with values in them) are to the right of any cell with a value and produce the table described above.
After reading your explanation, which was quite challenging I tried to recreate what you are asking.
I used cells A1:L1 with numbers 1 to 12. in the row below that A2:L2, some numbers have been added. with an if value <> "" you can see which cells contain a value.
In the second worksheet the table is made:
Sub test()
Dim a As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim name As String
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(1).Activate
a = 1
For i = 1 To endcel
If Sheets(1).Range("a1").Offset(a, i - 1).Value <> "" Then
name = Sheets(1).Range("A1").Offset(a, i - 1).Value
Sheets(2).Activate
Sheets(2).Range("b2").Offset(i).Value = name
End If
Next i
End Sub
Does this help? You can adapt it a bit to your problem.
Good luck!

Eliminating duplicate data

I'm a new user in VBA and I wrote the following basic code in order to eliminate duplicate data in one sheet and extract unique data into another sheet.
For example:
in Sheet1 there are total number of 184 cells which contains the same date (12/07/2007) in Column A.
I desire to take one of that date data and write it to a cell in Sheet2.
Therefore, there will be 12/07/2007 written in A1 in Sheet2.
I would appreciate any kind of help.
Code:
Sub Take_Unique()
Workbooks("historicaldata.xls").Activate
Dim i As String
Dim xrow As Long
xrow = 2
Do Until Sheet1.Cells(xrow, 1) = ""
If Sheet1.Cells(xrow, 1).Value = Sheet1.Cells(xrow + 1, 1) Then
Sheet12.Cells(xrow, 1).Value = Sheet1.Cells(xrow, 1)
End If
xrow = xrow + 1
Loop
End Sub
Another approach is my duplicate master addin.
It handles whitespace, case sensitivities and even regexp matches - so it goes beyond the default comparison.
Simpler to just copy the whole column from sheet1 to sheet12:
Sheet1.Columns(1).Copy Destination:=Sheet12.Columns(1)
Then use the RemoveDuplicates functionality to drop any duplicates (set the Header if it's present and not if it isn't)
Sheet12.Range("A:A").RemoveDuplicates Columns:=1, Header:=xlYes

Macro for copying a specific Row of formulas into newly created rows

I recently posted a question, and unfortunately did not get very far with any answers. I have re-worked my macro to mirror a similar scenario I found elsewhere. The problem is I am now getting stuck at the very end.
Purpose of the macro:
1. Beneath the selected cell, I need to insert x new rows = entered months -1
In the first inserted row, I need a set of relative formulas that can be found in the Actual Row 2 of the current worksheet (basically copy and paste row 2 into the first row created)
In the subsequent inserted rows, I need a set of relative formulas that can be found in the Actual Row 3 of the current worksheet
As is, the macro does what I want, except I don't know how to paste row 3 in all subsequent rows. I'm assuming I need some conditional statement?
As mentioned in my last post, I am trying to teach myself VBA, so any help would be appreciated!!
Sub InsertMonthsAndFillFormulas(Optional vRows As Long = 0)
Dim x As Long
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Select 'So you do not have to preselect entire row
If vRows = 0 Then
vRows = Application.InputBox(prompt:= _
"Enter the total number of months in the program", Title:="Add Months", _
Default:=1, Type:=1) 'Default for 1 row, type 1 is number
If vRows = False Then Exit Sub
End If
Dim sht As Worksheet, shts() As String, i As Long
ReDim shts(1 To Worksheets.Application.ActiveWorkbook. _
Windows(1).SelectedSheets.Count)
i = 0
For Each sht In _
Application.ActiveWorkbook.Windows(1).SelectedSheets
Sheets(sht.Name).Select
i = i + 1
shts(i) = sht.Name
x = Sheets(sht.Name).UsedRange.Rows.Count 'lastcell fixup
Selection.Resize(rowsize:=2).Rows(2).EntireRow. _
Resize(rowsize:=vRows - 1).Insert Shift:=xlDown
Rows(2).EntireRow.Copy Destination:=Selection.Offset(1).Resize( _
rowsize:=1)
Rows(3).EntireRow.Copy Destination:=Selection.Offset(2).Resize( _
rowsize:=1)
On Error Resume Next
Next sht
Worksheets(shts).Select
End Sub
Ok, based on your comments, the below code should meet your needs. But first, a few things to note.
I've added several comments to help you understand what is happening in the code.
Based on your comment regarding vRows, the code will now terminate if the user keeps the default input box value ("1"). The logic is that if the value is only one, then no rows need to be added. Notice that I subtract 1 from the Inputbox value.
The code assumes you have headers or at least filled cells in row one. I use row one to find the last used column.
If there's any chance that the wrong sheet can be active when this code is executed, uncomment line 16 of my code. (Obviously you'd need to change the code to reflect your sheet's name.
Finally, this code assumes that the upper-left corner of your dataset is in A1.
Tested on Sample Dataset
Sub InsertMonthsAndFillFormulas(Optional vRows As Long = 0)
Dim lastCol As Long
Dim r As Range
'Ask user for number of months.
'If the user keeps the default value (1), exit sub.
If vRows = 0 Then
vRows = Application.InputBox(prompt:= _
"Enter the total number of months in the program", Title:="Add Months", _
Default:=1, Type:=1) - 1
If vRows = 0 Then Exit Sub
End If
'Uncomment this line if you are concerned with which sheet needs to be active.
'ThisWorkbook.Sheets("YourSheet").Select
With ActiveSheet
'Set the range to work with as the cell below the active cell.
Set r = ActiveCell.Offset(1)
'Find the last used column. (Assumes row one contains headers)
'Commented this out to hard-code the last column.
'lastCol = .Rows("1:1").Find("*", searchdirection:=xlPrevious).Column
'Insert the new rows.
r.EntireRow.Resize(vRows).Insert Shift:=xlDown
'r needs to be reset since the new rows pushed it down.
'This time we set r to be the first blank row that will be filled with formulas.
Set r = .Range(.Cells(ActiveCell.Offset(1).Row, 1), _
.Cells(ActiveCell.Offset(1).Row, "H")) '<~~ Replaced lastCol with "H"
'**Add formulas to the new rows.**
'Adds row two formulas to the first blank row.
.Range(.Cells(2, 1), .Cells(2, "H")).Copy r
'Adds row three formulas to the rest of the blank rows.
.Range(.Cells(3, 1), .Cells(3, "H")).Copy r.Offset(1).Resize(vRows - 1)
End With
End Sub
Edit
The variable lastCol is what defines the right most column to copy formulas from. This variable is set using column headers in row 1. I prefer using variables like this to make the code more robust (i.e. you can add a column to your dataset without breaking the macro), however, for this to work you need headers above every used column (or at least cells that contain values).
If you aren't concerned with adding more columns in the furture, you can hard-code the last column into the code (see my revisions).

Stuck at deleting a record stored in a variant datatype

Ok I have tried these and grasped some view on variants and I have written these code
Sub main()
Dim Vary As Variant
Vary = Sheet1.Range("A1:D11").Value
For i = 1 To UBound(Vary)
For j = i + 1 To UBound(Vary)
If Vary(i, 1) = Vary(j, 1) Then
'I should delete the vary(j,1) element from vary
'in excel sheet we use selection.entirerow.delete
End If
Next j
Next i
End Sub
This is the sample I tried
A B C D
1 somevalues in BCD columns
2
3
1
Now Delete the 4th row don think I'm working for unique records I'm just learning stuff to do and while I was learning variant I am stuck at this point deleting a complete row stored in variant
I have stored (A1:D11).value in variant
Now how can I delete the A6 element or row in variant so that I can avoid it while I copy the variant to some other sheet?
Can I also delete the C AND B columns in variant so that when i do transpose it wont copy the C and B columns?
I don't know what exactly a variant is - I was thinking to take a set of range and do operations like what we do for an excel sheet then take that variant and transpose it back to sheet.
Is that the right way of thinking or did I misunderstand the use of variants?
`variant(k,1)=text(x)` some array shows mismatch ? whats wrong?
If you are planning on using a varray to look at cells in each row to decide if you should delete the row or not, you should loop through your varray backwards, the same way you would if you did a for loop through the cell range. Since you are starting on row 1, the variable i will always equal the row number the element was located on, so you can use that to delete the proper row.
Here's a sample (more simple than what you are trying to do, though) that will delete each row in which the cells in columns A and B are the same.
Sub test()
Dim varray As Variant
varray = Range("A1:B11").Value
For i = UBound(varray, 1) To 1 Step -1
If varray(i, 1) = varray(i, 2) Then
Cells(i, 1).EntireRow.Delete
End If
Next
End Sub
Notes of interest:
UBound(varray, 1) gives the count of the rows
UBound(varray, 2) gives the count of the columns
One workaround without a second array is to introduce a deliberate error into an element you want to replace, then use SpecialCells to delete the cell after dumping the variant array back over the range. This sample introduces an error into the array position corresponding to A6 (outside the loop as its an example), then when the range is dumped to E1, the SpecialCell error removal shifts F6:H6 into E6:G6. ie
pls save before testing - this code will overwrite E6:H11 in the first worksheet
Sub main()
Dim Vary As Variant
Dim rng1 As Range
Set rng1 = Sheets(1).Range("A1:D11")
Set rng2 = rng1.Offset(0, 4)
Vary = rng1.Value2
For i = 1 To UBound(Vary)
For j = i + 1 To UBound(Vary)
'your test here
Next j
Next i
Vary(6, 1) = "=(1 / 0)"
With rng2
.Value2 = Vary
On Error Resume Next
.SpecialCells(xlFormulas, xlErrors).Delete xlToLeft
End With
End Sub

Collect numbers from a column containing empty cells using Excel VBA

I have a little problem, I occasionally bump into this kind of problem, but I haven’t found a fast solution so far.
So, imagine we have an Excel worksheet and let's suppose that we have a couple of numbers in column ’A’ with some empty cells in it. Altogether (just to make it simple) we have the first 10 cells in column 'A' to observe. For example:
3
(empty cell)
(empty cell)
6
(empty cell)
4
(empty cell)
23
(empty cell)
2
Now in the next step I would like to collect these numbers into another column (for example, column ’B’) using VBA. Obviously I just want to collect those cells which contain a number and I want to ignore the empty cells. So I would like to get a column something like this:
3
6
4
23
2
I have already written the following code, but I’m stuck at this point.
Sub collect()
For i = 1 To 10
if cells(i,1)<>"" then...
Next i
End Sub
Is there an easy way to solve this problem?
Probably the quickest and easiest way is to use Excel's Advanced Filter - the only amendment you'll need to make is it add a field name and criteria. You can even list unique items only:
The VBA equivalent is
Sub test()
With Sheet1
.Range("B1:B8").AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, CriteriaRange:=.Range( _
"D1:D2"), CopyToRange:=.Range("F1"), Unique:=False
End With
End Sub
You should be able to use the method in the post int the comments, but you could also use SpecialCells like Range("A:A").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants,xlNumbers).Copy to get all of the filled cells.
Edit: needed constants not formulas.
This will work for any number of rows that you select. It will always output in the next column at the start of your selection e.g. if data starts in B10 it will ooutput in C10
Sub RemoveBlanks()
Dim cl As Range, cnt As Long
cnt = 0
For Each cl In Selection
If Not cl = vbNullString Then
Cells(Selection.Cells(1, 1).Row, Selection.Cells(1, 1).Column).Offset(cnt, 1) = cl
cnt = cnt + 1
End If
Next cl
End Sub
If you wish to loop manually and don't mind specifying the maximum row limit;
Dim i As long, values As long
For i = 1 To 10
If cells(i, 1).Value <> "" Then
values = (values + 1)
' // Adjacent column target
cells(values, 2).value = cells(i, 1).value
End If
Next i
