Copying Out Data Columns Of Different Lengths?
Jun 25, 2013
I am half way through writing a bigger macro, but am stuck at this stage.
I need to copy from a block of data as shown:
However, this column varies in length each time, and I only want to copy down to where the entries stop.
I also only want to copy W1:X6, and columns Y, AA, AB, AD (but only down to the end of the column)
I've tried using the End(xlDown)).Copy function, but obviously this doesn't work with the block up the top and the gap between the block and the columns

I export data from another programme into excel and I wish to write a macro to copy the contents of columns G, H, I and J and paste it into columns A, B, C, D but starting at row 4. I then carry out various formatting tasks. I have written a macro that works for the copy and paste and the formatting but it only works when the data is the same length. The length of the data exported varies each time and so I am looking for some code that stops at a blank cell and copies the range above. I believe this uses xlup or xldown.

I have three columns, one column is time every two seconds with data associated that time, and one is time every minute with an associated tidal height.
I want to sort my data so that for every 2 seconds I have an associated tidal height for that minute.
eg:
what I have:
Time Time Tidal Height
(2 sec intervals) (min) (meters)
1:15:00 1:15 1.342
1:15:02 1:16 1.221
1:15:04 1:17 1.115
...
1:15:58 1:43 0.024
1:15:60 1:44 0.012
1:16:00 1:45 0.008 ....................

Say I am downloading a column of stock prices and it cannot be predicted precisely how many rows will be contained in each downloaded column.
The column is, however, always Column E.
Two formulas must be computed.
1) Last row with a price in column E / average (all rows, beginning with row 2 with prices in column E)
2) Last row with a price in column E / average (last 50 rows with prices in column E)
Can Excel manage the variable number of rows required for these formula, and if so, can somebody recommend how to write these formulae?

I have a worksheet (downloaded from Paypal) and the columns I need to sum are of varying length (sometimes 12 rows and maybe 200). I am having trouble finding a way to find the end plus one of the column to write the formula in.

I'm currently making a workbook of annual sales lists for my small business. There are separate sheets for each year (2007, 2008, etc.) where column A consists of a list of customers for that year and the next 12 columns include sales for each respective month.
The issue I'm now facing is in trying to create a new "master" sheet of sales (month-to-month) for every year (2007-2012). The problem I'm having is transposing the sales data for each month from the previous sheets. Why I'm having trouble is this new sheet will be for every customer we've ever had whereas the past annual sheets were merely for customers in those specific years.
Thus I have annual sales sheets of 800 some customers while the final sales sheet will be nearly double that. What I've been attempting is to match the customer name from the master sheet with a specific year and if matched, transpose the monthly data associated on that yearly sheet. The formula I came up with works to a certain extent and then seems to fail because the customer difference gets lost in translation. I'm doing something wrong so that it's not looking for a match out of the entire 1600.
Here's my formula I'm trying: =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($A2, '2007'!$A$2:$A$883, 1, FALSE )), "", '2007'!B$2:'2007'!B$883)

I have a performance extract from a system which has performance for multiple accounts but the data is off different lengths and shown vertically. I wish to move the data onto a new sheet but rotated(transposed) horizontally
Attached is a snapshot of the report that is usually about 20,000 lines. See input and output tabs.
Is there any way that a macro could be created to do this.

I have a spreadsheet with two tabs (Customer Survey Data) and (Customer Rollup). The data starts on line 5 (headers in rows 1 thru 4) and is found in columns B thru J. In column B I have dates with no blanks. In column C I have customer names - no blanks. In column J is are the customer comments - not all customers made a comment so there are blanks.
I created a macro that autofilters the data to show only those entries within a specific date range (dictated by dates found in L1 and L2 - begin and end dates respectively) by column B (no problem with this). The macro also auto removes all rows where there are no comments (column J = no blanks). This leaves me with only those surveys recieved within a specied date range that have comments.
Here is my problem: the Customer Rollup sheet is the finalized report. I need to copy only the customer names and their comments into the finalized report. The following is the macro I put in which only half works and I have no idea why. It copies the names fine...but then only copies the first comment.
Oh yea...I don't want to copy the WHOLE column...only from the first visible row down to the last. Btw...I put a lot of notes for myself...I capitalized the notes where I think the problem is...Any suggestions on how to fix it or why it just doesnt seem to work like it should?

I need to copy cells M6 to S6 down to all rows in a worksheet. The columns will remain M to S. The number of rows however vary in each worksheet.
How do I get the macro to read "End Down" with varying number of rows. I will need to do other functions also using "End Down" so if possible is there a generic code for this.

I have two columns D and E that contain dates and values. Column D has the dates and Column E contains the corresponding values.
I need a macro to take all of the dates in column D (it is pulled from a different macro so the length of the two columns varies every time but starts at D2) and paste the first value in W1, the second value in AE1 , and so on (every eight cells).
I need to do the exact same thing with Column E except start at Y1, then AG1, etc (still every eight cells).
I will try to post an example later.

Assume there's an even number of rows containing textual data.
COL A
text1
text2
text3
text4
I would like to compare the lengths of text1 to text2, and return the row containing the greater of the two/delete the row containing the shorter of the
two. In either case, the contents below would then have to be shifted up by one. Then repeat for the next 2 rows all the way down to the last row using VBA.

I need something that will take data from columns in one Spreadsheet and put in difference cells in a row. I know this could be done with recording a macro but the number of column will never be constant.
Below I attached examples of the Spreadsheet

Master Spreadsheet
So we would have 5 rows.

I'm having difficulty allowing my macro to run in a more global environment with varying data-set lengths.
For example:
Though the following "copy" scenario works for me when my data set is contained within cells B2:B35:
Range("A2:A35").Select
Selection.Copy
It does not allow me to work with a set of data that extends beyond this--say to B50 or B60. Is there any way to allow this command, and others, to be a bit more flexible with my data set lengths?

Hello. I download several spreadsheets monthly that have a large number of columns (A to EZ). In every excel spreadsheet I need to copy only 18 different columns of data from the sheet which are the same columns each month, and put them into a new spreadsheet. It is very time consuming to highlight and copy a few columns at a time throughout the whole sheet.
I am not very experienced in excel, but is there a simple way to copy all of these columns at once out of the spreadsheet and paste them at once into a new one? I would think there must be some way to enter the column letters I need to pull them out.

I have 2 tabs (tab 1 is "Data", tab 2 is "Compare")
Data tab is filled with results from tests I do in a lab, each test has its own row, each 'test subject' has its own column.
In the second tab I want to have the ability to pick from a drop down list one of the other columns from the first tab.
So I have 2 columns (D and F) in tab 2 with drop down lists that I have populated with the names of the test subjects (using data validation grabbing the top row in tab 1).
I have formulas set up in Column E of tab 2 for the actual comparison.. What I'd like to do is when I select a test subject (for example SubjectA), from the drop down list in $D$1.. I want to populate $D$3:$D$155 with rows 3-155 of the matching column in tab 1 (so if for example SubjectA is in column X, it would copy from tab 1 X3:X155 to tab 2 D3:D155.
So so far I have the validation part done with the drop down list.. and I have the following VB code for tab 2.

I have a given length of steel bar...Example(550 feet)
I have various cut lengths that I can pick from...
14'-10".....13'- 9".. 12'-8"........(up to 6 different lengths)
I need to know the best combination of lengths to cut the long bar into to have minimal scrap left when we get to the end of the 550 feet.....
Cut as many of the longest cut lengths possiable.....Cut as few of the shortest cut lengths possiable
Due to the fact that I will have to convert this to a PLC application when completed, I want to find a mathmatical way to do this inside excel and not use the "solver"....Assuming that I/we can come up with an equation to do this .....

Without moving or copying columns I need to print Column A & Column I on the same piece of paper and not print Column B-H.
Every time I try this though it is printing column A on one sheet and Column I on a second sheet. Yes I've checked margins, etc.
This is actually possible, right?
(I didn't want to move or copy columns as the spreadsheet is for someone else's use, plus my formulas buggered when I tried to so I didn't want to add that complication for the other person of double checking the formulas every time she wanted to print this two column version of the sheet.)

I have three columns - as listed below. I need a script - That compares "result 1" and result 2. If there are data in the "result 1" column then input that into the "City" column. Else input "result 2" data (if any exist), else leave blank.
"Result 1" always has priority over over "Result 2".

I have a file that has various numbers of columns, some of which i need, some of which i do not. Under these columns, there are various rows, sometimes 50, sometimes 400. I need to write something that copies only the specific columns I need and pastes it into a new worksheet.
For example, in the data file there is are columns property type, loan balance current, and amortization type. I need them to be copied with the information in the rows below them to a new worksheet, to eliminate the unnecessary information in the data file.

I have 4 lengths in four columns in a random order, and need to compare them to see whether they are equal lengths.
I Have figured out how to order them so I can compare them, but can't think of a formula to show whether they are equivilent (eg 1000m = 1km) True or False outcome is fine.

My data is as follows, all in one cell:
10015200 US Government Bonds 18,369,423.52
10012301 US Government Bonds 10,232.21
There are many varying lengths of digits. I am trying split off the numbers
to the right of US Government Bonds into another column. Here is my
formula:
=RIGHT(A7,IF(ISERROR(FIND(" ",A7)),LEN(A7),FIND(" ",A7)))
My result is 9,423.52. Its not pulling the whole number.
What do I need to change in the formula?

Is there a formula out there that can check if a cell begins with 1 of a range of numbers of different lengths?
Example does A1 begin with A2, A3, A4, A5 where A2 = 123, A3 = 4567, C3 = 89.

What i want is to be able to drag this down for multiple rows but i want the formula above to only change columns i.e.
Next row gets C$3 and so on.
