First let me say, I'm a complete vb noob. I know excel very well, but
vb is completely new to me, so please be gentle with me =) .. hehe. I found this script on here posted back in mid 2008, and for some reason I couldn't reply to it, so I'm posting a new topic on it to see if anyone can help me out. The following code basically takes a specified Range and checks the first Column of that range, and finds all data to the left without a set number of cells. It then copies that data to a different workbook, that part for me works fine, but I'm curious on a few things. 1. is there anyway to copy only values, and not formulas as it's doing now. I tried adding in Paste Specials but that didn't work. 2. I would like to modify this, to where i can have it copy multiple cell ranges (example: A1:C10, A3:C10, D1:C12) and make a separate copied selection area into the new workbook. Is that as simple as copying the section of code that is referring to the finding of next blank cell in that row? 3.Is there any simply way to make a macro to work in reverse as well? Basically, so that i have 1 macro key to backup/save the data. Then another that will restore the data into the correct field, NOT filling in blanks though. Only restoring the values IF the 2nd workbook has that info, if not, then skip it. Would it help if i posted the document so you can see exactly what i'm trying to do? Here is the working code i found on here previously, but doesn't fully do what i need it to currently... Thanks again for any help! Sub Test() Dim bk As Workbook Dim bSave As Boolean Dim lRow As Long ' test to see if Destination.xls is already open On Error Resume Next Set bk = Workbooks("Destination.xls") On Error GoTo 0 If bk Is Nothing Then bSave = True Set bk = Workbooks.Open("C:\Destination.xls") End If 'find first empty row in database lRow = bk.Worksheets("Test").Cells(Rows.Count, 1) _ .End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Data4") RowCount = 1 Do While .Range("A" & RowCount) < "" FindData = .Range("A" & RowCount) Set c = bk.Worksheets("Test").Columns("A").Find(what:=Find Data, _ LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole) If c Is Nothing Then .Range("A" & RowCount & ":C" & RowCount).Copy _ Destination:=bk.Worksheets("Test").Range("A" & lRow) lRow = lRow + 1 Else .Range("A" & RowCount & ":C" & RowCount).Copy _ Destination:=bk.Worksheets("Test").Range("A" & c.row) End If RowCount = RowCount + 1 Loop End With ' if destination was originally closed, then save and close it If bSave Then bk.Close Savechanges:=True End Sub |
