VBA Lookup Value Copy, Paste Values Between Two Workbooks
Aug 21, 2009
I have a standard template worksheet called "Input" (the workbooks name is "Input Capture") which spans C12:U1100.
In addition I have a seperate worksheet which is based in an all entirely seperate workbook called "People Data" (the workbooks name is "Succession Planning") which again spans C12:U1100.
What I would ideally like is a macro which matches the value in column C and populates the entire row (much in the same way as a HLOOKUP, only pasting values) with the exception of columns M and Q.
I tried all failed.We have about 160 different workbooks (one for each business unit) stored online. Staff enters information about their weekly revenue and expenses and here at head office I collect that information and consolidate them.What I am trying to do is that;1.) Create a master Workbook with ~160 worksheets (One worksheet for each unit) named exactly the same with other workbooks2.) And macro can pull the information from related files stored in a certain folderIt is very much like another members problem but I am not sure why I cant get that code working for me? [URL]
Copy over data from different workbooks and using paste special values to paste it into a new workbook using a macro. Here is what I have and what I am looking for:
My file path is
C:Documents and SettingsMy DocumentsProjectCostsDecember12
I also have a workbook called DecMonthlyTotal in the same folder with the same named worksheets.
I am looking for a macro to be placed in the DecMonthlyTotal that will pull the data from the Cashable12-13 worksheets from Function1, Function2 and Function3 and paste special the values into workbook DecMonthlyTotal, worksheet name Cashable12-13, it will also pull the data from the NonCashable12-13 worksheets from Function1, Function2 and Function3 and paste special the values into workbook DecMonthlyTotal, worksheet name NonCashable12-13
Both the Cashable12-13 and the NonCashable12-13 have Columns A - G The row that the macro should start the copying from is Row 3 for each of the workbooks; however I don't have an end row for the workbooks as this will vary.
I have a little bit of problem with lookup function. When i paste values from another worksheet (paste special, values) in a cell which is lookup value i get #N/A. These values are numbers. When i put '7 for example i get the values i want from lookup table. I have a lot of these cells and its tedious job to put ' in front of every value. Is there a quicker solution?
I have two workbooks with the same sheet names. One workbook is called "Main" and the other is called "Subset".
Column D in each sheet is mostly identical between the two workbooks and contains the LOOKUP references.
I would need a macro (called from the "Main" workbook) which allows the user to browse for the "Subset" workbook.
Once selected, the macro should cycle through all sheets of the "Subset" workbook and for column D values LOOK them UP in "Main" workbook and transfer the adjacent values from column C of the "Subset" workbook to column C of the "Main" workbook.
Appropriate error handlers need to be in place for:
- Selecting the appropriate workbook (i.e. one which contains identical sheet names) - The "Main" workbook is likely to contain additional sheets which should be ignored by the macro - Column D LOOKUP entries which are not found in the "Main" workbooki should be ignored (and vice-versa)
I have two workbooks, one with two sheets and the other the new workbook where I want to copy the cell values. What I am trying to accomplish is:
1. From Workbook book1. sheet2. cellb (dynamic row values) I want to look for the value in book1.sheet1.cellb (static row values). If it is found I want to copy the cell values from book1.sheet2.cellb, celld, and celle to book2.sheet1.cellb, celld, and cellg. If there in a new value in book1.sheet2.cellb, I want to copy the same values (cellb, cellc, celld,celle) to book2.newrow.
I am attching the two workbooks with sample data, for clarification.
Code: Sub COPYCELL()Sheets("Distribution").Select Range("B7:X84").Copy Windows("SecondWorkbook.xlsm").Activate Sheets("Distribution").Select Range("B7:X84").Paste End Sub
Basically I want to copy cells B7:X84 in the current workbook on the Distribution tab and paste them into Secondworkbook.xlsm that I have already open on the Distribution tab in the same range. There are graphs though so
I am not sure if that has an impact. When I do it manually I copy and then paste into SecondWorkbook and then I copy what I just pasted and paste special values.
I have several workbooks (around 100) that I need to grab a certain range out of (C2:C4). Contained in this range is a title and two numbers stored in row format. I need to copy this same range in every workbook, transpose the information and then insert the information in the consecutive rows.
Right now I do it manually and it takes a lot of time I want to set this up so I can import it into a ms access table at some point.
Why isn't my copy and paste working between workbooks? We use excel 2000. I've resorted to using a lot of selection because I can't seem to figure out what is going on otherwise...
I'm sure this should be much simpler...
Sub PortData() Dim wbA As Workbook, wbB As Workbook Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet, ws3 As Worksheet, ws4 As Worksheet, ws5 As Worksheet, ws6 As Worksheet Dim sPath As String, sName As String, bTextSwitch As Boolean Dim nLast As Long Dim i As Long
I am trying to find out if it is possible to create a macro in an excel workbook that will open another workbook saved on the computer, perform a find, copy specific data, and paste it in the opened/active workbook.
I have attached two Workbooks (OLD.xls and NEW.xls). I update this report weekly, but must always copy the previous week's status data (OLD.xls) into the new report (NEW.xls). Under each row, I enter a status update that pertains to the job (row) above it. When I run a new report, some data is removed and some is added to NEW.xls. (Details in the attached Workbooks)
I need to make sure that the proper status is copied and inserted below the new date for the matching job between Workbooks. The variable in column C must be the same in both Workbooks.
Sheet linked from external file, new data coming daily. How to copy Values of cells from B4 till B-empty to C column? The attached file has a properly displayed data.
I would like to copy all data from all workbooks stored in one particular folder and paste them into a masterlist. The masterlist and all other workbooks in that folder have the same table header. How do I write VBA codes do the following tasks?
Options (1 and 2 are mutually exclusive): 1. VBA will go to that folder, open all workbooks one by one, if the data is filtered, then deactivate filtermode, and copy all the data but not the header, and paste it into masterlist and loop to the next workbook.
2. Create an inputbox in masterlist that allows user to key in Week Number. Then VBA will take the value, go to the folder and open all the workbooks one by one, apply filtering using the InputBox value, and copy the related data excluding the header into masterlist and loop to the next workbook. (*If the workbook in the folder is filtered, deactivate filter and then only filter using the InputBox value).
I have around 200 excel spreadsheets/workbooks with identical ranges but each with different data. There is a total of 5 columns and 225 rows in each spreadsheet/workbook. Looks something like this:
Workbook 1:
Title 1 Title 2 Title 3 Title 4 Title 5
A2 B2 C2 D2 E2
[Code] ....
The Cells I need to copy are in BOLD. I am trying to paste them onto another workbook as follows
Main Workbook:
Workbook # File 2 File 3 File 4 A2 Title 5 A3 Title 5
[Code] ....
As you can see, each workbook has identical A2 and Title 5 columns, so they only need to be copied once onto the Main workbook where data from the B and E columns are different for each Workbook. So not only I need to copy and paste from a Workbook onto the Main Workbook, but the code has be able to paste it onto a new row in the Main Workbook (where each row in the Main Workbook will correspond to the data copied from Workbooks 1-200.
I am new to VBA but I tried a code where I would copy and paste one cell at a time onto the same workbook and not onto the Main Workbook, and then how to copy and paste from one workbook to another, but as you can imagine that would take a long time:
It seems like I need some kind of loop, where it would copy and paste a set of cells and repeat the entire process until it reaches the end of the Workbook 1 while making sure when doing same thing for workbook 2, that the data pastes onto a new row onto the Main Workbook. I feel I have the logic down, but its in the syntax where I am failing.
I had to copy data from child woekbooks (*.xls) and paste it to the master workbook with same page to page every time when a macro is executed i had done the copy and paste part
But I'm Facing the problem in which i had to deal with
Validations as on both master and child sheet validation (column based combo box is activated ) one is worktype 2ns is time type
i jst had to copy data to the master macro works perfectly fine but the problem is that a msg box appears which signifies that i had to change the name (version ) for both types when i click yes 2 times it pastes the data
I'm attaching my macro as well as pic of that msg box with this attachment
how to loop through workbooks in a certain directory and copy the rows in sheet1 where column B contains numbers greater than zero, and then pasting them into a new master workbook. The sheets will be named differently each week but will always be in the same directory.
I get 'x' number of workbooks(with one sheet only) everyweek from which I need to copy data and paste to a master worksheet. (SCREEN CAPTURE BELOW)
I am unable to write the code myself as I have never worked on VBA and am only a beginner.
Part I:
The data I need to copy starts from the 19th row (A19:H19). The end point is determined by the row just before the row that has the words "Calibration Request" in it.
Part II: Just below the data that was pasted from Part I, the data from 2 rows below the words "Calibration Request" needs to be pasted. The end point for this would be a blank row encounter.
I have created a workbook with vb code that include 4 modules, 1 userform. These all work in the original workbook. When I copy and paste the workbook onto another laptop, none of the scripts work? Both laptops run the same os plus office 2003.
Attached is my code, pay attention to the bold part. I want the sourceSheet to be copied as a sheet and pasted in the targetSheet (the Sheet2 of "NewBook") but I want it pasted asvalues. Here is the specific part which needs to be looked at...and below is the full code.
VB: Set sourceBook = Application.Workbooks.Open(sourceFilename) Set sourceSheet = sourceBook.Sheets("Current") Set targetSheet = NewBook.Sheets("Sheet2")
I have been trying for months to get this to work by altering code from similar requests I've hunted down on google to no avail.
I am looking to have a "Master" sheet that is populated by data from 30+ individual excel workbooks. Each workbook is contained on a server in a directory "O:JobsJobs In Progress." In that directory are subfolders (named in sequence "C12000 Job1", "C12001 Job2", etc) which contain the actual workbook (Named according to number ie. "C12000 Jobinfo").
I would like this "Master" to automatically pull specific values from each C1200* workbook and paste them in a designated cell so that I can quickly look at specific information contained in each workbook. Each C1200* workbook is constructed the same way.
Short Example of C1200* workbook in which data will be pulled from:
Job Number C12000 PM Abe Lincoln Foreman Thomas Edison Contract Date 1/1/10
I have a column "g" with this conditional formatting:- =A2<>A3 Format Bottom Border. However I will pass this workbook onto someone else who will fill in the text in column "g". They will use copy/paste text from other cells or columns even other workbooks that will not have the conditional formatting.
I have used Cells > Projection > Locked unchecked then used Tools > Protection > Protect Sheet and checked all. There does not seem to be a way to unlock the cell but protect Conditional formatting. Each time I copy and paste from other non formatted cells it wipes out my formatting.
The sheet I have attached has three tabs one is a master sheet another is the production input and the last is an engineering input section, I have coded the production input section to input into cells and email the engineers when they have a new job, the issue i have is with the engineering input.
The engineers can currently go into this sheet and input the job number onto the engineering input section and it will show them the current issue from the master sheet (I have already entered 1002 in it), what I want them to be able to do is input into the white sections below the description and when they click on update entry a macro takes the job number entered into B3 and saves the information onto the mastersheet in the correct column/row which corresponds to the job they are updating.
However the engineers may need to go into the same job several times and update different information therefore the fields need to not paste into the cells if the input sections are blank.
1. Start w/ "RULE-Table" sheet, 2. Take note of "TODAY" date, 3. LOOKUP date in "RULE-table" 4. Locate Coordinates found in Col D of RULE-Table, 5. LOOKUP the data that resides in those Coordinates on the "PRODUCTION" sheet & COPY 6. PASTE data into "REPORT" tab C2 and E2.
Here's an example to visualize:
Code will do everything it needs to do within an Undisclosed OPEN file with several sheets. The reason the Workbook file name is undisclosed/undefined is because the file name will vary based on clients, so I don't want the code to be limited to look for a specific filename.
*The sheet names within this OPEN client file will always have the same names.
The sheet called: "RULE-Table" holds coordinates based upon "TODAY's" computer date. For example: If today is JAN 4, the desired coordinates to pull data from are "B5" and "D10" from the "PRODUCTION" sheet.
Since today is 1/4, its rules say go to B2 and D10 of the PRODUCTION tab and collect the data
"PRODUCTION" (data source) sheet (within the same open file) A.......B......C....D....E....F... Row1..Header..Hdr..Hdr..Hdr..Hdr. 2.......2................................. 3.......14............................... 4.......13............................... 5.......20............................... 6.......62.............................. 7....................76................. 8...................184................ 9...................375................ 10.................410................ 11.................525...............
Last, the collected data from those 2 coordinates should always get pasted onto the "REPORT" tab into C2 and E2 in this example.
"REPORT" (destination) sheet (within the same open file) A........B.........C.....D....E..... Row1..Header..Hdr..Hdr..Hdr.. 2...................20........410......
I have two workbooks, each with columns titled State Code & County Code. I would like to pull data from one workbook into the other workbook using conditionals. (Copy/Paste will not work as the file I am pulling into has MSA Codes in the same columns)
I want the code to run when we open excel workbook "TEST" and it should open up all the workbooks one by one in the folder J:ABC and copy cells C2 and C4 values in the A and B columns of TEST workbook.
e.g There are 5 workbooks in the folder J:ABC so when the TEST workbook is opened then the code should run and open 1st workbook and copy values in cells C2 and C4 to it and close the workbook.
The code should run as below:
1st workbook:
C2 value will go in Test workbook B1 C4 value will go in Test workbook A1
Close 1st workbook
2nd workbook:
C2 value will go in Test workbook B2 C4 value will go in Test workbook A2
close 2nd workbook.
3rd workbook:
C2 value will go in Test workbook B3 C4 value will go in Test workbook A3
close 3rd workbook.
and so on It will be going to next rows in A and B columns.
I have attached a file with an example of what I need. The data tab show the data has been given to me. I need it in a different format to be able to load it into our system. The Needs tab shows what format I need. Basically, I need to convert this table into a flat file, where there is a record for each "X" value only.
By using a macro on the attached report I like to copy the row values named "Section Total" in red and and paste them over the values starting with "Aged Debt" in blue (the rest of the wording cahanges every month so "Aged Debt" is the key word for that row).
