is it possible for someone to annotate this macro so i can understand what
its doing and try to learn from it.

I hate Power Programming like the code you supplied. Power programming dates
back to thje 1960's and shouldn't be used. In the 1960's and early 70's
computers were very small and to get programs to run you tried to make the
programs as small as possible.

The idea back then was to to make variable names small and to put all the
code on as few lines as possible. the code was hard to understand.

Good programming practices are to document code so theat it can be
maintiained. Use veriable names that are are descriptive. Break code into
multiple lines so it it easily understood by all people not just the person
who wrote the code. Don't use tricks that people won't understand. Add
error checking like the test below for "If not c is nothing".


Option Explicit
Sub Summary()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim ShtCount As Long
Dim ColCount As Long

cheers, yours makes more sense but it puts the data in funny places in the
summary sheet, i need it to all line iup in one row under the headings i have.

sheets 1 to 7 are the slave data entry sheets and summary is where they all
get inputed into. the slave sheets have a heading in b2,c2,d2,b4,c4,d4,b6
and a data field underneath in b3,c3d3,b5,c5,d5,b7, this then needs to be
put into the summary sheet in this order.

I think it is a matter of philosopy in programming style. Some instructors
teach the reduction of characters in the actual code, although the reserved
space in memory is not affected by the size of the variale, the number of
bytes required to store the actual code is reduced. So, it depends on your
database manager's policy or the software manager's policy or both as to
what styles are used for commercial purposes. At home, you are the boss.

Did the original code work properly? Try this change. If it works I'm

need a macro explaining
 

the code doesn't require any cells to be selected. I added two message boxes
to the code so you can find the problem. the message boxes will tell you
exactly what the code is doing at each step. See if this helps. Also try it
two different way. Change the line below and see if it works better. the
only real difference between my code and the oringal is I'm matching the
entire cell. Usually people arre looking to match entire cell. The default
which is in the original code is looking at part of the cell.

Here is a change to look at only part of the cell
from :
Set c = Sheets(ShtCount).Cells.Find(what:=Data, _
LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
to:
Set c = Sheets(ShtCount).Cells.Find(what:=Data, _
LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlpart)

Below is a change to put the cell into a different destination cell

from (1st method) :
LastRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
to (2nd method) :
LastRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, Colcount).End(xlUp).Row


Code below useds 1st method and has tow message boxes to help find problem.
