This should get you started. Not sure what you want to fill cells B to N with.

Hi,

I'm hoping someone can help me with this...

Using XL2003

I have to workbooks lets call them book1 and book2. I need a macro that
looks through column D on book1 and matches numbers to column D on book2, if
a match is found on book2 and Coulumn G in that row has text in the cell,
copy the text from Column G and Column H and paste this into book1 Column I
and N (book2 Column G to book1 Column I and book2 Column H to book1 Column N)

Then fill the range of cells on book2 from column B to N on that specific row.

Book1 is shared workbook but book2 isn't.

I hope I have explained this clearly enough.

Appreciate any help that is provided.

Thanks in advance,

Gav.
