Default Respond to my new entry

The last lines of the macro do not work!!!
It also does not like the loop.

ActiveCell.Offset(1,)). Select Loop

I am not very experienced with VB programming. Could you
respond to my new entry on April 14th 10:07am.

Thank you.

Hi,

You can try this:

Public Sub CopyInCounty()
Dim sST As String
Dim sFIPS As String

Columns("A:B").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "@"

Range("A1").Value = "To"
Range("B1").Value = "To"
Range("A2").Value = "S."
Range("B2").Value = "FIPS"
Columns("B:B").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "@"
Range("C3").Select
Do While Not IsEmpty(ActiveCell)
sST = ActiveCell.Text
sFIPS = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Text
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -2).Value = sST
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Value = sFIPS
Do While StrComp(ActiveCell.Offset(0,

2).Text, "County
Non-Migrants", vbTextCompare) < 0
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -2).Value = sST
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Value = sFIPS
Loop
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop

End Sub

Good luck,

I am working on old county migration flow datasets.
The datasets are for in-migration into a specific

county.
For example, a typical file includes many in-migration
counties.
C D E F

St. FIPS Name # of returns
30 017 Custer 10
30 111 Yellowstone 6
30 031 Gallatin 2
Same State 8
Diff Region 7
30 017 County Non-Migrants 13
30 019 Daniels 17
30 162 Missula 8
30 033 King 4
30 031 Gallatin 5
Same State 2
Diff Region 9
30 019 County Non-Migrants 16

I want to make a macro that takes the first numbers by

the
cell right below a "County Non-Migrants" and copies

them
to the next "County Non-Migrants," taking into account
that the number of rows is not constant.
Example of End Result:

A B C D E F
To To From
St. FIPS St. FIPS Name # of returns
30 017 30 017 Custer 10
30 017 30 111 Yellowstone 6
30 017 30 031 Gallatin 2
30 017 Same State 8
30 017 Diff Region 7
30 017 30 017 County Non-Migrants 13
30 019 30 019 Daniels 17
30 019 30 162 Missula 8
30 019 30 033 King 4
30 019 30 031 Gallatin 5
30 019 Same State 2
30 019 Diff Region 9
30 019 30 019 County Non-Migrants 16


The problem I see is that the rows are not constant.

How
would you write a complex if statement to take into
account the "county non-migrants" information?

Thanks for your help. (By the way, I have thousands

rows
of cells of this type of information for over 10 years
with cells for each county in three states. A lot of

work
for a long time if I have to the procedure manually.)
