Copy Cell Data Into Next Empty Cell Upon Button Click
Jul 18, 2012
I am using a worksheet to scan or enter students into a school event and determine their eligibility to participate in the event. Everything is working great but I need to do the following on Enter Student button click:
1) Cut scanned value (ID number) from input Cell A1
2) Paste value into next empty cell in column A (Rows build as students are inputted)
3) Copy Eligibility status (text) from column F into A6
I have a limited VBA/Macro background and have NEVER got a button to work.
I am looking for a formula function or a vba code where:
- In workbook1 find the first cell that is empty between range A7 - A10, - In workbook2, in Range G10- G13: find the word "Day1". - If the word "Day1" exists in cells G10 or G11 or G12 or G13, copy the particular cell or cells where "Day1" exists to the first found empty cell or cells in range A7-A10 in workbook1.
Lets suppose cells A8, A9, A10(workbook1) are empty cells, that means A8 is the first empty cell. And G10,G11,G12, G13 (workbook2) have the word "Day1" Then, Copy cell G10 into cell A8 Copy cell G11 into cell A9 Copy cell G12 into cell A10
The problem is that the cells which need to change are locked and have a object group ontop of them and are not all in one row or column..
The cells which need to change are A4,A5,A6,B6,C6,D6,E6,F6,G6,H2,H3,H4,H5,H6,I6,J6,K2,K3,K4,K5,K6.
It sort of a theme changer for my spreadsheet incase people want a change and can do all of it with one click of a button or maybe click on a cell with the colour on it and have that colour copy itself to the range.
I am using a userform to collate the information in the "data" sheet and have a unique ref number in column A. Data populates columns A - AC.
In sheet "Mail" I enter the Ref number and it pulls through the info using vlookups into a template which I then e-mail as the body of the text on the click of a macro button.
I wish to capture the date each time the button is clicked in the same data row starting in column AD then AE etc.
I have cobbled all of this together by searching around this forum - I have not expertise so please be gentle with me!
I need a macro that will examine column A starting at A2 and working its way down copying the data in the first cell (A2) and then delete that row. If the next cells are empty (usually the next 5 cells) it should paste this copied value in each of the empty cells until it comes to the next cell with data in it. At this point it should copy this next value and delete the subsequent row and copy this value in each of the empty cells directly following (again, usually 5) until it finds the next cell that has data in it. At this point, again the whole process begins again repeating it self until it comes to the end where no more data is.
I have rather large Excel file that spans around 245 columns & has multiple users responsible for certain columns. Columns are chunked to provide data about a specific group. Every 72 hours, I need to provide to managers what’s currently on this file in a specific summary format.
I’ve recorded a macro that gets me half way there. Here’s where I’m clueless. After my macro deletes unnecessary columns, what remains are the columns for “Main Data” group + each of the 5 “Business” groups (Investors, Lawyers, Credit, Finance, and Support) which would have identical column headings.
(1) Name (2) Address (3) ID# (4) Control#
Furthermore, for each of the 5 “Business” groups, there are 9 slots (ie- a user can enter up to 9 unique entries for a particular group.)
Example- The Investor group contains 9 slots. Each slot will contain the 4 columns mentioned above. So there are 46 slots in total – 1 for Main Data, 45 (5 groups x 9 slots) for Business groups.
MY PROBLEM: I need a macro to now cut & paste all data from each of the 45 Business groups slots & then paste at the bottom of the MAIN DATA slot.
The final file would be 4 columns (as listed above) wide. Data from each of the 45 business group slots would be one below the other- all of it underneath the data in the Main Data group.
I attempted to record a macro where I’m copying a section’s data range starting from row2 to row4000 (I know there will never be 4000 entries. I did this just to ensure that all future data would be captured) then pasting that after the last entry in the Main Data.
Example- I’d copy data from Investor1 slot(starting at column E2-H2) & go about 4000 rows down. Then I’d press CTRL+Down Arrow key in column A & then click the down arrow one time to take me into 1st empty cell where I would paste my copied data. I was going to repeat this process for the remaining 44 slots.
I’ve added some extra entries to test the macro & the problem is that the recorded macro is pasting data in specific cell location in column A instead for looking for the 1st empty cell in column A & then pasting the copied data.
So far I've gone thought the net & tried to paste in a few VBA posts/tips that I thought would work. Here's what I have so far from tinkering around. I need someone to tell me what to replace the xxxxxxx line with. This would be the language to tell Excel to paste copied data range into the first blank cell in column A.

I'm trying to find a macro that will copy data from the areas of B120:E179 and I120:K179 for example (linked to another worksheet within the workbook) and special paste (Values Only and skipping blank cells) it to the next available open cell up top where basic data entry will be taking place B10:E29 and I10:K29. I need it to only copy/paste the rows with data (skipping all cells/rows with no data) and once it is finished coping I will need it to place an "X" in column M next to the row that it copied data from. I would also need it to reference the data in each row from B to E and if there is an entry say on B14 to E14 that matches it but if I10 to E29 are blank then paste that information on row 14. If it does not match or if those columns are full then paste on next available line.
I hope I'm making sense here. This is for a vehicle tracking log between checkpoints. Each driver and info will be listed on each row. Columns B through E will contain information for each driver: name, badge, #passengers, and vehicle #. The log lists location, time, and destination for outgoing travelers in columns F to H. Incoming info is listed on Columns I to K............
i want the user to be able to change the cell color on the click of a command button. the worksheet is protected. when the user click the command button the active cell changes to red and offsets by 1. then the work sheet is locked again.
The two problems I am having is 1. I want the range to begin from row 10, column k to column FD. all cells down
the second problem is the current code allows me to edit locked cell columns A to J ...
My goal would be to click on a cell within a range of cells (in a column) and have the value copied to a specified destination cell. There would be a few different columns with source cells and two destination cells. Each column would to copy to a specific cell. My ojective is basically to deal with different processing times (days, weeks, months).
Here's a little visual, clicking on C4 for example would copy the value "5" to cell B2. Clicking on D4 would copy "12" to A2.
row/col A B C D E
1 Days Weeks Processing time X (weeks) Processing time Y (in days) Processing time Z (in weeks)
Is this possible using code: Copy Cell A1 and Paste in first empty Cell down Column D. This would be connected to a command button. Both Cell A1 and Column D are on the same spreadsheet.
I've got a range of data in Column D approx 50,000 rows long and I need to go down this range and when theres a blank cell copy the info from the cell above. I've got some code which loops through this but I need to make sure I put "EOF and the bottom of the info to stop the loop. Is there a slicker way of writing this code?
The macro I have is looping all sheets looking for empty cells in a specific column, and when it founds an empty cell the value for one cell is copied to the empty cell.
But in one worksheet it stops with the error:
Run-time error '1004' Application-defined or object-defined error
I am trying to do is create an invoice log of payments received. For each payment there is a cell value of how many products the customer has which is updated on each payment entry. What I want to do is have a macro that runs when all other data is entered to update this value.
So I have a main customer sheet where it holds the product amount in the same workbook, let's call this cell $A$1 holding a value of 47. I go to enter a payment record on the invoice sheet, once this is complete the macro will run and look to $A$1 on the first sheet and update $B1 on my invoice sheet. On the next entry it will update $B2, then $B3 and so on.
I have a row with about 230+ columns, a little over half of the columns have complex IF or Vlookup formulas. The goal would be to click a button on a UserForm (to create a new Client) to copy all row formulas to the next empty row.
Running into this issue of "transworksheet macros"
I have a master "update" commandbutton on sheet 1. I have two sub "update" buttons on sheet 2 and 3 respectively.
What I would like to do is have the user click the master button, that would "click" the two sub buttons so they run their respective macros on their respective worksheets (within the same worksheet.
I have tried pasting the macro code in the master button, telling it to select the sub worksheet and then run the macro, but the marco runs itself on the master worksheet instead.
I have a worksheet with 2 pivot tables. what I would like to do is, when the user right clicks on a name, the name will be copy and pasted to cell B2 of the other sheet.
what im trying to do is to copy only the last 7 characters in column A:A when i dubleclick on a cell.
example: if i click on a cell that has "8peu99s8a" i want it to copy only "eu99s8a" wich is the last 7 characters, and then i will past the data to another program i use. this code will only apply for any cell in column A:A
I'm trying to do is create a link so that if you double click on a cell in a range (Sheet1!A3:A100) it will copy the value (ie Sheet1!A6) and paste it to the next sheet in a fixed cell (sheet2!B2).
The reason is I want to use the next sheet to do Vlookups (or may just do it in a macro) to fill in a template.
I would like to copy a value in a cell using a macro from one worksheet to another in the same workbook. If B1 in worksheet 1 has a value of 200 then this to be copied into worksheet 2 in the range of A1:A20 BUT in the next available empty cell, so if A1:A10 are full then 200 must go in A11.
The aim-to fill in the gaps. I have a spreadsheet with a series of dates etc. and when two entries have the same date, the second one has an empty cell. For my formula to work I need the various empty cells to be filled by the correct date from above, this to be done down the column.
If you have time for a further problem, is there a macro which can work out the average of differing number of rows, with the rows being group by the fact that four different column catagories need to show identical values for the fifth number to be used to calculate the average.
I have two columns "Time" and "Code". I have a macro that inserts rows based on the Time. For instance, if a cell on the "Time" column has a value of 0:10, I then insert 10 rows right below that cell. If a cell on the "Time" column has a value of 0:40, I then insert 40 rows right below that cell and so on. This macro works fine. What I would like to do is this: After I run this macro and the required rows are inserted, I would like to copy the contents of the "Code" column onto all the inserted rows.
Lets say "Time" is in column B and "Code" is in column C. Now lets say B2 has value 0:25, B3 has value 0:10, B4 has value 0:05, then my first macro inserts 25 rows below B2, 10 rows below B3, and 5 rows below B4. Now, what I want to do is copy the value from C2 and paste it in the 25 rows inserted below B2, and copy the value from C3 and paste it in the 10 rows inserted below B4. I only want to paste contents on column c. all other cells needs to be empty.
I have searched a lot and could not find a solution to copy cells to a new rows even if the above value in the above row is empty. What I mean that the code will disregard if there is an empty entry above it will add the value to a new row anyway.
VB: Sub updateReport() Dim ws As Worksheet 'Dim lngLastRow As Long 'Dim destCellRow As Long
Code: Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) 'single click version Range("J3:J32").Interior.Color = RGB(200, 160, 35) Range("K3:K3").Interior.Color = RGB(200, 160, 35)
If Intersect(Target, Range("J3")) Or Intersect(Target, Range("J4")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub ActiveCell.Copy End Sub
The If statement line gives me a 91 error. Simply right now i'm trying to allocate several squares in the sheet to be cells that when clicked will copy to your clipboard automatically. I can do 1 range easy but now i need to make it a little more advanced.
I am looking for advice on how to move cells containing data (columns D to K in EXAMPLE A), upwards so that the information lines up with data already existing in columns A to C (to be included as part of an overall VBA routine).
In the upper example data in cell D2 needs to move upto D1, E3 to E1, F4 to F1, G7 to G1 etc and K9 to K1. Now, data on following rows is to move upto row 2 eg: E5 to E2, F6 to F2, G8 to G2.
The first 'block' of data starts at row 1 and finishes in this case at row 9. The next 'block' of data starts at row 10 and finishes at row 18. Row 19 shown is the start of the next 'block'. These 'blocks' may have upto 20 rows ....
