How To Automatically Copy Data From Any Blank Cell Above?
Feb 19, 2009
I receive a huge spreadsheet with account numbers in col A and names in col b with dates in col g and amounts in h. However if there is more than one date and amount for the same account number and name, the people/program who originated the data left those fields blank.
In order to sort the list by name by date, I have been manually copying the data from the row immediately above to the blank row(s). (L O N G process) So if I have ...
I am wanting to have certain cells of data from one worksheet appear on another worksheet once the cells on the first sheet have data entered in them.
I find that I can do a simple formula to copy the cell but I want the cell to remain blank until data is added in the first sheet (it will be a mix of text and numerical entries).
I have another query that I believe can only be solved using VBA.
In a row of input data, some cells are duplicated from previous cells in the same row but in some instances, the user needs to be able to input different information.
e.g. M4=F4 if left blank and the same would apply to columns N=G, O=H, P=I & Q=J.
I have done some searching but nothing quite matches my requirements and recording a macro only produces the following result.
For example, In excel in cells A2 to A56 I've got words in them, I wanted to copy all the cells in column A to B in same order,but when the word "check" is encountered, a blank cell will be added below the cell with the word "check". How can I do this?
I need to do two things in my Excel spreadsheet: 1) I want it to insert a blank row everytime a value in the 1st column changes. 2) In the blank lines, I want to do a COUNTA for each of columns G through N. If I can get the program to insert the blank rows...they will not be a set # of records apart...some will have 3 records & some might have 17 records. Is there a way to automatically cause #2 to happen instead of having to choose the function icon and then tell Excel the first and last cells in each range?
I'm migrating data from Financisto for Android to CashTrails for iOS, and I need to format my CSV file a specific way for conversion to a CashTrails file.
I'd like to do the following in Excel 2013 (I have access to other versions if I need to):
1. Highlight a range of cells (i.e. A1-H20)
2. Apply following action: IF cell has data, add " to beginning of cell and " to end of cell, AND IF cell has no data, place "" in cell.
This can be done, right? I'm desperate!
It would look like this in Notepad. Before: Date,Time,Amount,Category,Tags,Account 12/31/13,12:00 PM,$3.99,General,,Checking 12/31/13,12:30 PM,$5.00,Shopping,gift,Cash
How to automatically copy a row of data from one sheet to another, only if a specific cell contains specific data. It would have to populate on one sheet but read from multiple sheets in the same workbook.
I.E. if tab 213 has "SOP" in column F, I would like to copy the data from that row and insert it into the SOP tab.
I am trying to copy data from three separate tables (from sheet 1, 2 and 3) into 1 table (sheet 4). I do not want to combine the data, instead have all of the data in one place.
I have tried the consolidate function, but am not having much luck?
I have a macro that will take 4 cells of data from a source and put in the next blank row starting with C9:F9 of Worksheet “NORTH”, then the next blank row and so on. I also have another macro that does the same function but puts data in Worksheet “SOUTH”.
In the event of an error where I select the wrong macro putting data in the wrong Worksheet, I would like to have a macro that would swap the data into the correct Worksheet and then clears it from the wrong Worksheet.
Example: Macro1 has written 4 cells of data to next blank row in C:F in Worksheet “NORTH”(Say C10:F10) which was wrong choice. I need a macro that captures the last row that has data in it (non-blank) which is C10:F10 of Worksheet “NORTH” and then copies that data to the next blank row of Worksheet “SOUTH” C:F, (say C15:F15) THEN clears the data from Worksheet “NORTH” that it just copied from the last non-blank row which was C10:F10. Essentially swapped and reset.
I have been tinkering with a code for a few days now and managed to finally get it working . The Code basically copies data from one spreadsheet (Macro Tester6), opens up another spreadsheet (Macro Tester Master), pastes the data, Saves the file (Macro Tester Master) and then closes it.
The Macro Tester6 file is then left open as I prefer.
The problem I have is that the data always paste into the same row, hence overwrites data already inserted.
the code finds the next blank row to paste the data in.
My code is:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() ' select current workbook and paste the values starting at A1 Windows("Macro Tester6.xls").Activate Sheets("Sheet1").Select Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:I1").Select Selection.COPY ' open the source workbook and select the source sheet
I have a command button that I want to automatically copy and paste certain data to another worksheet when clicked. I keep getting a "runtime error 1004; application-defined or object-defined error". The code I have so far is:
I'm trying to create a sub that will save my worksheet to a tab delimited text file anytime there is a change in the worsheet data (all cells are linked to cells in other workbooks). I've figured out the command to save the file
In table 1 you will see that not all rows contain data (this is because i have removed it previously with a macro) the second table shows what i want the macro to do but without deleting rows:
A Hiddenrow with formula B C
[Code]....
So basically i would like a macro to search for the first none blank value in column A and copy the row to the first available blank row , it also needs to blank out that row once done. i.e row 3 would be moved up to row 2, 5 up to 3, 7 up to 4 etc etc.
The hidden rows contain formulas which cannot be deleted or my ws goes Pete Tongue.
I have a column with data that has one cell populated then the next 4 blank, and so on down the line... I want to copy only the cells with data into a new column without any of the blanks in between (in the new column). I can use the filter feature, but that just screws up the remainder of my spreadsheets other columns. It basically only hides rows, which is not what I need.
Here's some background on what I'm trying to accomplish: I've downloaded daily stock data and want only every 5 days of data starting from the top ("today"). I have tools that can download the data I need in a "weekly" format, but the problem is: it cuts of on Fridays. So basically it's not true weekly data from "today". I just want "today", then 5 trading days back, then 5 days back, etc. etc.
The task I have in front of me is that I have a very large spreadsheet (28,000 +rows) that has data that was exported from a legacy system that we no longer have. It has data in columns A thru G. I must get this data prepped to have ready for importation into the new system. What I'm trying to do is copy the data in cell A and cell B, everytime the value in column D = 1, and insert one blank row above and copy the values from cell A and cell B to cell A and cell B on the newly created row.
Below is a picture of what I'm trying to capture:

I thought that a macro would be a fairly easy way to do this, but it's proven challenging for me to write. Here is what I attempted using the macro recorder:
I would like to record/create a macros to open the file and paste 4 columns worth of data into another spreadsheet. Making sure the data is pasted in the correct column and doesn't overight data already in a tracker. Ie. paste it into the next available space.
I have a long list of values in column F of my worksheet. These values appear in random rows for example: cell F3 is 27, cell F9 is 7, cell F13 is 27, cell F20 is 9 ... The data is not evenly spaced any specific number of rows apart, but there are spaces (rows which are blank in column F).
I would like to put all of these values in column G but without any blank cells, and keep the order the same as well. So using the above example, Id like a way to make cell G1 read 27, G2 read 7, G3 read 27, G4 read 9.
Column F could be a very long column im not sure exactly how long as the data is being put in periodically. Some sort of formula that I could just drag down that would read the values from column F and put them in column G with no places would be ideal.
I am trying to create a tracking spreadsheet in which modules need to move through certain phases. I have tabs for all appropriate phases. I would like to be able to select from a pull-down the current phase and have the spreadsheet automatically populate the appropriate tab. Ideally, I would like to be able to edit the process in any of the phases and have it backfill as well (ie if the status changes while in phase 3, I don't have to go back to phase 1 to change it, I can edit it in the phase 3 tab and phase 1 will automatically update).
Additionally, I would like it to calculate this constantly not just when the spreadsheet opens.
I have achieved this partially with formulas but I am finding that it is extremely slow and also doens't always update correctly. I also can't get the circular referencing to work so I don't have full capability using the formulas.
Public preValue As Variant 'Declares a variable to be used in both macros 'This is the first line for a macro that runs when a cell is changed. Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub 'Limits the change to 1 cell only If Intersect(Target, Range("$A$1:$M$42")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub Target.ClearComments 'Clears any existing comment Target.AddComment.Text Text:="Previous Value was " & preValue & Chr(10) & "Revised " & Format( Date, "mm-dd-yyyy") & Chr(10) & "By " & Environ("UserName") 'Adds a new comment with the text. CHR(10) is a return. End Sub

How do I take the changes made from the first work book and insert them in a cell on the second work book. Where in the code above do I Put this command.
I have a workbook with 2 - worksheets "DATA" and "LETTER".
The "DATA" sheet has columns "First Name" "Last Name" "Address"...etc.
The user can enter in either a "X" or a "x" in cells B6:B100 on the "DATA" worksheet.
After the user enters a X or x and hits the macro button I need it to copy certain cells from "DATA" worksheet to "LETTER" worksheet. I have listed a example below.
In this example if a "X" or "x" is entered into B6 on "DATA" worksheet and the macro button is hit, then: ....
In a column, there are data, but in between of each data in a column, there are many blank cells. I would like to do a copy and paste of the first data, and paste it in the same column column, while the cells are blank, and stops when there is a cell with a data, which is different than the previous one, and do the same again and again.
